OR THE NOBLE AC- compliſh’d ſolemnity, full of Coſt, Art and ſtate, at the Inauguration and Eſtabliſh- ment of the true worthy and right nobly min- ded ROBERT PARKHVRST, into the Right Honourable office of Lord Maior of
LONDON.
The particularities of every Invention in all the Pageants, Shewes and Triumphs both by Water and Land, are here following fully ſet downe, being all performed by the Loves, Liberall Coſts, and charges of the Right Worſhipfull and worthy Bro- ther-hood of the Cloth-workers the 29 of October 1634.
Printer’s ornament TO THE MOST WELCOME AND expected Pattern and Patron of Vertue and Goodneſſe, the hopefull deſerver of all the Coſts and Honours which the Noble Fellowſhip and Brother-hood of Clothworkers and ample Love of
the whole City, in full and generous Bounty be- ſtow upon him, the Right Honourable and Judicious ROBERT PARKHVRST,
Lord Major of the famous Ci-
ty of London.
The firſt ſhew that is to be preſented on the
water is a veſſell like a Boat or Barge, adorned
with the armes and Impreſſes of the honoura-
ble Citie and Company, with ſeeming pro-
perties of being loaden, with Packs, dryfats,
and divers other commodities, that marchants and others
that are free of the Company of Cloth-workers, doe re- ceive from foreigne parts by ſea; this Barge attends the
Lord Mayor and meets him about Pauls wharfe or attends
further up the River. Thetis (the Goddeſſe of the ſea) and
Thames, or Thamiſis (being one of her faireſt daughters)
ſitting In the head of the Boate; Thetis being habiliment-
ed in a mantle of ſea-Greene, with a corronet of ſhels of
divers ſorts of ſea-fiſh on her head with a great whelk-fiſh
in her hand with adornments of ſtrange fiſhes and other
ſignificant repreſentations. Thamiſis being habited in
a white or ſilver coloured Robe, having on her head a
Chaplet of green Reeds, Flowers and Ruſhes, and about
her feet deck’d with Sedge, Bulruſhes and Flaggs, at which
preſentment Thetis ſpeaks this following ſpeech;
Then the Rowers (conſiſting of foure in number, being
two Saylours, two watermen) being ouer-joyed, pike
their oares, and every of them drinks his Kan as a health,
toſſing them up, and preſently falling into a Rugged
friskin daunce, returne to Pauls wharfe, and landing
the ſaid Barge, ſhe is carried as the formoſt Pageant in the
ſhew through the Citie.
The ſecond is a Pageant repreſenting the figures of
Time and Mercury (Time being habited in a blew roabe
with his Sithe in his hand) which do wait and attend the
Lord Mayor in Paules Church-yard, The ſpeakers being
Mounted on two Griphons (the Supporters of the Cloth- workers Armes) which at the approach of my Lord,
Mercury (upon one of the Griphons) with his Caduceus
or charming rod in his hand, with wings on his head to
ſignifie quickneſſe of Invention, Acuteneſſe of wit, and
Volubility of tongue with Eloquence of ſpeech. He hath
alſo wings on his feet to ſignifie his ſwiftneſſe; as Meſſen- ger to the Gods. Time ſpeakes as followeth.
Next and neere to this Pageant of Time and Mercury, is the forme of a Citie repreſenting London, with walls,
Battlements, Gates, Churches, Towers, Steeples and lofty
Buildings, and ſome Antique ſhapes here and there on the
tops of the higheſt Edifices: Alſo with ſhops and men at
worke upon cloth, as Cloth-workers, fullers, ſhermen, and
others, the walls of the Citie being adorned round, with
Armes and ſcoutcheons of the Cittie and company as
alſo divers figures, as 1 of Antiquitie, 2 Record, 3 Memo- ry, 4 Wiſedome, and others the like; alſo an ancient
Matron in a civill grave robe with her haire long hanging
downe in trammels diſhevelled behind her backe, ſitting
in one of the Gates of the Citie, ſhee ſpeaks in the perſon
of London to the Lord Mayor and company as follow- eth.
The next is a Pageant in the forme of a Tower, which
doth import a Tower of Honour, on the top of which
Tower ſits one in royall robes, with a majeſtique Impale- ment on his head, a ſcepter in one hand, and a Ball in the
other: under him (in the next deſcent) ſit in equall
diſtances the figures of a Lord Mayor, a Biſhop, a Lawyer,
and a warlike Captaine or Generall. On the right hand of
the Lord Mayor is placed the figure or emblem of Ho- nour: next the Biſhop is placed piety or the feare of God:
on the right hand of the Judge, a figure repreſenting
power is ſeated, and by the Generall or Captaine ſtands
victory. In the deſcent below the Lord Mayor is an appren- tice, and by him ſtands obedience: beneath the Biſhop is a
ſcholler, and by him is placed patience, under the Judge a
clark, and by him diligence; & under the Lord Generall is
a Common Souldiour, and by him is placed vertue, which
ſhewes that by vertuous actions and true induſtry meane
men have aſcended and may be raiſed to Honourable
places, which is an encouragement and paterne for others
to purſue and follow thoſe moſt worthy wayes to
Honour and Renowne. The Tower being round or circu- lar, and the Baſis or Ground-worke ſquare or Quadrangle,
on each corner whereof ſits, the foure prime or Cardinall
Vertues, namely Juſtice, Fortitude, Temperance and Pru- dence, every one of them habited in Robes, ſignificant and
Emblematically ſhewing that thoſe vertues doe adorne

Pageant attending my Lord Mayor, in Pauls Church- yard or at the upper end of Cheapſide neere the little Con- duit; he that ſits higheſt in the place and perſon of Honour ſpeakes this following Specch.
Joy crowne this day with Drums and Trumpets ſounding.
Then his Lordſhip being come to Saint Laurence
lane end in Cheapſide, he is ſaluted by Endimion, or a ſhep- herd rideing on a Rams back, (the Ram being the creſt
of the Cloth-workers armes) there being neere or next
unto him an ancient monument of fame: at the approach
of my Lord the ſhepherd entertaines him with this ſpeech,
A dance of ſhephards with drinking in leather bottles to the monument.

Pageant being an ancient Monument of Fame, ſhall pre- ſent it ſelfe to his Lordſhip, in the front of which peece
is erected a figure repreſenting Fame, with a ſilver Trum-
pet in her hand, the Monument being adorn’d with the
Armes, Eſcucheons, Hatchments and Impreſſes of divers
Lord Mayors that have bin of the worſhipfull company
of the Cloth-workers, whom (though Time hath inter- red) Fame revives, ſounding their praiſes, and inforceth
Time to revive their noble Memory, encouraging his
Lordſhip to follow them in all their Honourable actions,
that when Time ſhall determinate, his Lordſhips ſhield
of Honour may be added to the reſt of his predeceſſors;
and as this Pageant of the Monument of Fame is a repre-
ſentation of the night, ſo the night, and this following
ſpeech at his Lordſhips Gate is a concluſion and dutifull
farewell to the daies Triumph and ſolemnity.
For a period to theſe Triumphs, (and to give deſert
her due) It were ſhamefull impudence in mee to aſſume
the invention of theſe Structures and Architectures to my
ſelfe, they being buſines which I never was inured in, or
acquainted with all, there being little of my directions in
theſe ſhewes; onely the Speeches; and Illuſtrations which
are here printed I doe juſtly challenge as mine owne,
all the reſt of the Compoſures and Fabricks were form- ed and framed by the ingenious and induſtrious Master (MK)M’rRo- bert Norman Citizen and Painter of London, who was
indeed the prime inventor proſecuter and finiſher of
theſe works, with the aſſiſtance of Zachary Taylor a
quaint and well knowne curious Carvar, which being
gracefully accepted & approved of, after good CHRIST- MAS, the authors may be the more merry at the next.
THetis, daughter to the ſea-god Nereus, ſhe was wife
to King Peleus, alſo Thetis was the mother of
Achilles, who was ſeven cubits in height, and the moſt
valiant Captaine amongſt the Greekes at the ſiege of Troy.
Danubia is a great River that runs through Hungaria by the famous Cities of Buda, Brundufium, and Belgrad,
and ſo it paſſeth into Germany, by the Towne of Regenſ-
berg, and through Swabe, Bavaria, and Auſtria; it is alſo
called Donawe, but paſſing into Illyria it is at a part of
Thracia cald Iſtria changed into the name of Iſter, it
receives 60 rivers into it, the moſt part of which are na-
vigable, it falls into the ſea called Pontus Euxinus, or the
Euxine ſea.
Po a famous river in Italy. Seine a river in France which runs through Paris. Volga a river that runs through
the large Empire of Ruſſia. Ems in eaſt Frizland, from
whence the Citie of Emden hath name. Elve or Albe, is a
river that paſſeth from Bohem, through Saxony, Miſnia,
and ſo to the townes of Hamborough and Stoad, into the
German Ocean. Tanais, a great river northward, which
parts Aſia from Europe. Nilus a famous river that runs
through Ethiopia and Egypt, and becauſe it never raines
in Egypt, it is watered and made fruitfull once a yeare by
the overflowing of Nilus. Ganges is a mighty river that
runs through and divides India, it is one of the foure
rivers of Paradiſe, and is called by Moſes Phiſon. Tigris one of the foure named Hiddekell. Euphrates paſſeth by
Babylon, and was alſo one of the rivers of Paradiſe named
by MoſesPerah, and the Tyber a river that runs through
Rome. Iordan a river that runs betwixt Gallile and Iudea,
and fals into Mare mortuum or the dead ſea. Xanthus a river
in Phrygia neere Troy, of which it is ſaid that if ſheepe
dranke of the water, their fleeces became yellow. Indus a
great and goodly navigable river, that hath its head from
the mountaine Taurus or Caucaſus, it incompaſſeth India on the weſt, and falls by Aſia into the Lake called Pau- lus Meotis, and part into the Indian ſea. Aſphaltites is
the dead ſea or Mare mortuum, it is in Siria, and it is held
to be the place where Sodom, Gomorah, and the reſt of the
five Cities ſtood which were conſumed with fire and
brimſtone from heaven.
The meaning of the ſecond Pageant being Time and Mercury.
2TIme hath ſeene 426 ſeverall daies of Mayoralty,
which is ſo many yeares ſince the Cities govern- ment was changed (by King Richard the firſt) from
Portgraves, Provoſts and Bayliffs, to the Honourable title
and dignity of Lord Mayor. Men that come rightly to
places of Honour & dignity muſt make good uſe of Time.
Truth is the daughter of Time, who though falſhood may
obſcure her, yet Time will bring her forth at laſt, where her
bright vertue ſhall outſhine the Sun: there is nothing
goes beyond Time but Eternity.
LOndon doth expreſſe her duty and thankfullneſſe, in
acknowledging her happy preſervation and govern- ment, when many of the goodlieſt Cities in the world are
either ruind, and confounded, or elſe far ſhort of her
peacefull and plentifull felicity. As firſt, Thebes was a
great Citie in Egypt, it was built by King Buſiris, it
had 100 gates about the walls, it was 40 miles in
compaſſe, the walles were 30 ſtads high, and ſix ſtads
in breadth; it is written that 200 watchmen watched at
euery gate: when it was deſtroy’d by Allexander the
Great, there were found the Toombs of 77 Kings, (and
good Kings they had bin) for the law was amongſt
them that bad Kings ſhould have no buriall. Alſo there
was another Thebes in Boetia built by Cadmus, and a third
Thebes in Cillicia, where it is ſaid Andromche the wife to
the worthy Hector was borne. Numantia was in Spaine,
and being beſieged by the brave roman Scipio, rather than
they would yeeld their Citie, they burned it with their
wives, children, goods and families. Carthage was a good- ly Citie in Affrica, it was 40 Engliſh miles in circuit, it
was held againſt the Romans 44 yeares when Rome was in
her greateſt greatneſſe, it brought forth the valiant Cap- taine Haniball, and was at laſt deſtroy’d by Scipio Affri- canus 144 yeares before Chriſts birth; the place and coun- try where it ſtood is now called Tunis, which is a harbour
or Receptacle for Pirats, ſea-Rovers and misbeleeving
Turkes. Ieruſalem the chiefe Citie of Iudea, where King
Salomons Temple was, and where our Saviour ſuffered his
paſſion, it is now a ruind peece under the ſubjection of the
Turk. There are two Babylons, one in Caldea, where Nim- rods Tower was erected, and another Babylon there was in
Egypt, they being (as their names doe ſignifie) both in
confuſion under the Turk. Conſtantinople was the metro- polis and the head Citie of the Grecian or Eaſterne Em- pire, it was won from the Chriſtians the 29 of May 1453.
by the Turkiſh Emperour Mahomet the ſecond, which
Mahomet did alſo win the Empire of Trebizond, and tooke
12 Kingdomes and 200 Cities from the Chriſtians. Rome nor any Citie that holds Rome for chiefe, cannot declare
any ſuch true Reality in their happineſſe and government,
as London juſtly may doe.
Theſe few expreſſions I thought fit to ſet downe here
for the illuſtration of ſuch words and places as may ſeeme
hard and obſcure to ſome meane Readers.
