<p>The Ensigne that Galeaz vicechance- ler, the second Duke of Millan was wont to vse, may be verified of those which accor- ding to the prouerbe, are said to carrie fire in the one hand, and water in the other. It was a burning firebrand or a staffe hardned in the fire, with two vessels ful of water, abone and beneath. It may haue also an other signi- fication, if we more deepely waigh it: namely, that the passions of a mans minde are by Gods goodnesse extinguished by the directi- on of reason. Moreouer, by it the same dukes magnanimitie is signified, for he in a fough- ten combat, most renowmedly vanquished a Dutch Lord that at that time bore no smal countenance, who was the first man that vsed the same embleme or picture, and chalenged this his Ensigne to himselfe for a monument of victorie, and for a token of triumph that he got ouer his enimie, who then was put to the worst.</p> |
