There is vsed to this day certaine brasen
money with the image of Augustus Ceasar on
it, vpon the one side wherof is the portraiture
of a Crocodile chained fast to a palme tree,
with this inscription: Col. Nem. which is, No
man hath euer bound me before. By which
signe Caesar would signifie that none before
him did euer subdue Egypt, and triumphed
ouer it. For the Crocodile representeth Egipt,
which is to be found onely in the riuer Ni-
lus, by the commodie whereof all Egypt is
made fruitfull. Besides the Crocodile is faste-
ned to the Palme tree, that thereby the be-
holders might be admonished that the godly
Prince Augustus triumphed ouer all Egypt,
by getting of which victorie and peace, he
was recreated and refreshed, as a drie and
thirstie ground is with a showre of raine. Fi-
nally, his simbole signifieth that Augustus
got the victorie, and preuailed against Anto-
nius and Cleopatra of famous memorie.
