Dekker Ode Triumphes were wont with swet and bloud bee croun'd To every brow They did allow The liuing Laurer which begirted round Their rusty Helmets and had power to make The Souldier smile while mortall wound did ake But our more ciuill passages of state like happy feast of In'-urd rest Which bels and woundlesse Canons did relate Stood high in Ioy since warlike Triumphes bring Remembrance of our former sorrowing The memory of these should quickly fade for pleasures streame is like a dreame Passant and fleet as is a shade Vnlesse thy selfe which these faire Models bred Had giuen them a new life when they were dead Take then good Country man and friend that merit which folly lends not iudgment sends To forraine shores for stranger to inherit Perfection must be bold with front vpright Though Enuy gnash her teeth whilst she would bite Ioh. Webster The Deuice called Londinium THese fiue Triumphall Arches were first taken in hand in the beginning of Aprill 1603. presently after his Maiesty was proclaimed It being expected that his passage would haue bene through his honourable City and Chamber to his Coronation vpon Saint Iames his day following But by reason of the sicknesse it pleased his Maiestie to be solemnely Crowned at Westminster without sight of these Triumphs Notwithstanding the businesse being set on foote went on with all expedition till Bartholmew-tide and then ceased because of the great mortalitie 40. dayes more was giuen for the preparing of this Triumphall Arch In which time the streetes for that purpose were diligently surueyed heights breadths and distances taken as it were to make Fortisications for the solemnities Seuen peeces of ground like so many fields for a battell were plotted forth vpon which these Triumphes should be erected The gladsome and long desired Morning at length is come In which the Streetes seeme to bee paued with people that in heapes flocke together to behold their proud heads that were aduanced in this manner THE first Pegme was erected in Fanchurch-streete the backe of it so learning on the East ende of the Church that it ouer-spread the whole streete And thus we describe it It was a Flat-square builded vpright the Perpendicular-line of the whole Frame that is to say the distance from the bottome to the top as the Ground-line is also in this so in all the rest to be found out and tried by the Scale diuided by 1. 2. 3. 4. and 5. and set at the lower end of the Peece By which figures feete are represented So that in all the descriptions where mention is to bee made of Heights Breadths or any other Commensurable proportions you shall find them left thus with a blancke because we wish you rather to apply them to the Scale your selfe then by setting them downe to call either your skill or iudgement in question And note withall that the Ground-plot hath not the same Scale which the vpright hath for of the two Scales which you see annexed the Lesser is of the Ground and standeth in the Ground-plot the Greater for the Edifice or Building it selfe This Gate of Passage then into which his Maiesty made his first entrance was deriued from the Tuscana beeing the principal pillar of those 5. vpon which the Noble Frame of Architecture doth stand for the Tuscane Columne is the strongest most worthy to support so famous a Worke as this Fabricke was considering that vpon his Rusticke Pillars the goodliest Houses Turrets Steeples c. within this City were to be borne And those

name is called Hortus Euporiae Plenties Bower Chast are they both and both maidens in memory of a Virgine to whom they were Nurse-children for whose sake because they were bound to her for their life me haue they charged to lay at your Imperiall feete being your hereditary due the tribute of their loue And with it thus to say That they haue languished many heauy moneths for your presence which to them would haue bene and proud they are that it shall be now so of the same operation and influence that the Sunne is to the Spring and the Spring to the Earth hearing therefore what treble preferment you haue bestowed vpon this day wherein besides the beames of a glorious Sunne two other cleere and gracious Starres shine cheerefully on these her homely buildings Into which because no duty should be wanting she hath giuen leaue euen to Strangers to be sharers in her happinesse by suffering them to bid you likewise welcome By me once hers now your vassaile shee intreates and with a knee sinking lower then the ground on which you treade do I humbly execute her pleasure that ere you passe further you would deigne to walke into yonder Garden The Hesperides liue not there but the Muses and the Muses no longer than vnder your protection Thus farre am I sent to conduct you thither prostrately begging this grace since I dare not as being vnworthy Lackey by your Royall side that yet these my greene Followers and my selfe may be Ioyfull forerunners of your expected approch Away Syluans The Deuice called Cozmoz Neoz New World THE sixt Triumphall Arch was in the shape which you see it caries on the other side erected aboue the Conduit in Fleetestreete extending it selfe ouer the whole streete to the length of foote and in height foote The Gate of it was foote wide and foote hie The two Posternes were answerable to those of others set downe before and were cut out of the two round Towers which riz vp in proportionable measures from the ground on the foreside with battlements and Ballisters round enclosing the tops containing in all their heights foote ouer the Gate and iust in the midst of the Building which was spacious and left open a Globe was seene to moue being fild with all the estates that are in the land And this Engine was turned about by foure persons representing the foure Elements Earth Water Aire and Fire who were placed so queintly that the Globe seemed to haue his motion euen on the Crownes of their heads The liuely garnishments to this Building were 23 persons of which the principall and worthiest was Astraea Iustice who was aduanced to the highest Seate Beneath her in a Cant by her selfe Arete Vertue was placed and at her feete Fortune who trod vpon the Globe In a darke and obscure place neere Vertue sate Enuy beneath whom on seuerall Ascensions were placed the Cardinall Vertues Iustice Fortitude Temperance and Prudence and in an opposite seate the foure kingdomes England Scotland France and Ireland Zeale was the Presenter of this Deuice who spake thus ZEALE THe populous Globe of this our English I le Seemed to moue backward at the funerall pile Of her dead female Maiesty All states From Nobles downe to Spirits of meaner Fates Moou'd opposite to Nature and to Peace As if these men had bene Th' antipodes But see the vertue of a regall eye Th' attractiue wonder of mans Maiestie Our Globe as drawne in a right line agen And now appeare new faces and new men The Elements Earth Water Ayre and Fire Which euer clipt a naturall desire To combat each with other being at first Created enemies to fight their worst See as the peacefull presence of their King How quietly they moue without their Sting Earth not deuouring Fire not defacing Water not drowning and the Ayre not chasing But propping the queint Fabricke that here stands Without the violence of their wrathfull hands Mirror of times loe where they Fortune sits Aboue the world and all our humaine wits But thy hie Vertue aboue that what pen Or Art or Braine can reach thy Vertues then At whose Immortall brightnesse and true light Enuies infectious eyes haue lost their sight Her Snakes not daring to shoote forth their stings Gainst such a glorious Obiect downe she flings Their forkes of Venome into her owne mawe Whilst her ranke teeth the glittering poysons chawe For t is the property of Enuies bloud To dry away at euery Kingdomes good Especially when she had eyes to view These foure Maine Vertues which here figure you Iustice in causes Fortitude gainst foes Temp'rance in spleene and Prudence in all those And then so rich an Empire whose faire brest Containes foure Kingdomes by your entrance blest By Brute diuided but by you alone All are againe vnited and made One Whose fruitfull glories shine so farre and euen They touch not onely earth but they kisse heauen From whence Astraea is descended hither Who with our last Queenes Spirit fled vp thither Fore-knowing on the earth she could not rest Till you had lockt her in your rightfull brest And therefore all estates whose proper Arts Liue by the breath of Maiestie had harts Burning in holy Zeales Immaculate sires With quenchlesse Ardors and vnstain'd desires To see what they now see your powerfull Grace Reflecting Ioyes on euery Subiects face These painted flames and yellow-burning stripes Vpon this roabe being but as shewes and types Of that great Zeale And therefore in the name Of this glad Citty whither no Prince euer came More lou'd more longd for lowly I intreate You 'ld be to her as gracious as y' are great So with reuerberate shoutes our Globe shall ring The Musicks cloze being thus God saue our King The Deuice called Templum Iani Temple of Ianus THE seuenth and last Pegme within the Citie was erected at Temple-barre beeing adioyned close to the Gate The Building was in all points like a Temple and dedicated to Ianus Quadrifrons Beneath that Foure-fac'd head of Ianus was aduancd the Armes of the Kingdome with the Supporters cut out to the life from whence being remoude they now are placed in the Guild Hall The wals and gates of this Temple were brasse the Pillars siluer their Capitals and Bases gold All the Frontispice downeward from those Armes was beutified and supported by twelue rich Columnes of which the foure lowermost being great Corinthian pillers stood vpon two large Pedestals with a faire Vaux ouer them in stead of Architriue Frieze and Cornice Aboue them eight Columnes more were likewise set two and two vpon a large Pedestall for as our worke began for his Maiesties entrance with Rusticke so did wee thinke it fit that this out Temple should end with the most famous Columne whose beauty and goodlinesse is deriued both from the Tuscane Doricke Ionicke and Corinthian and receiued his full perfection from Titus Vespasian who
