CHAP. IV.
As amongst Men there are manifold Degrees and Callings as to Temporal Imployments, so it is decent and necessary that each should be habited as it is fitting for that Estate, Calling and Imployment: as the King in His Robes and Throne of Majesty, a Noble Man in his Vestments of Honor, a Souldier in his Military Habit either on Foot or Horseback, the Artificer about his imploy with such cloathing as is requisite for such Manual Arts or Sciences: so shall all Degrees and Societies be distinguished that thereby they shall receive such Reverence as is answerable both to their Persons and Qualities, all which as to the Laity concern I have in the foregoing Chapter set forth.
We shall now in this give an account of the Habit and Vestments of Spiritual Persons, and how far such are born or used in Coats of Arms, Crests, Cognizens, Supporters, or other devices.
