PREFACE This volume is the third in a sub-series of the Index Emblematicus dedicated to the English Emblem Tradition. It applies the same principles to English works that were applied to the various editions and translations of Alciato's emblems. However, discussions with colleagues, users, and reviewers of the Alciato volumes have resulted in the introduction of certain improvements, particularly in the creation of indexes. These improvements were facilitated by advances in micro-computing technology. In this respect, I should like to record here a special debt of thanks to the computer programmer for this volume, Dr Stanley W. Beeler, who created the computer programmes which have enabled me to subject the material presented here to the electronic scrutiny necessary for the creation of indexes and concordances. Volume Three of the Index Emblematicus series differs markedly from its predecessors in that for the first time the sources of what is presented are not printed books. Scholars who have studied sixteenthand seventeenth-century emblem literature have long paid lip service to the ubiquity of the emblem, the impresa, and other emblematic forms in all manner of artistic media. However, whereas considerable attention has been paid in recent decades to printed emblem books, that given to the emblematic artifacts of material culture has been relatively slight. This study of the emblematic devices employed by the warring parties on the military flags used during the English Civil Wars is a small contribution towards redressing what I perceive as something of an imbalance in emblem studies, and as such it follows my earlier study of the imprese employed by participants in English tournaments. As I hope to make clear in what follows, the flags are of particular interest to emblem scholars for a number of reasons. They demonstrate first and foremost that the fashionable interest in creating emblematic devices during the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries did not disappear with the tournament and the all-too-lavish Stuart masque. Instead, as Thomas Blount was to point out, English emblematic inventiveness found a new outlet in the pursuit of real, as opposed to play, wars. Secondly, like the earlier tournament imprese, the military flags were public artifacts, seen by many (and not just the soldiers themselves) and often commented upon. Their currency within popular culture was broader than that of any printed emblem book. Thirdly, as I further hope to show, the emblematic devices employed on the Civil War flags may be 'read' as a part (hitherto largely unstudied) of the massive propaganda war that was waged among the different factions during the wars. Like many others who have studied the history of this era, I have had to confront the complexities resulting from the fact that the conflicts within England were inextricably intertwined with EnglishScottish, and English-Irish relations. Scottish armies invaded England, English armies marched against Scotland, Scottish and English armies were sent to deal with the rebellion in Ireland, and soldiers who fought in Ireland also fought in England and Scotland. All the armies involved in these various military enterprises had their own often very distinctive flags, and at an early state in the preparation of this volume, I decided that as far as possible the emblematic devices employed on all these flags should be included. The Index, then, includes more than just the Royalist and Parliamentary English Civil War flags. It includes, for example, flags from the Bishops' Wars of 1639 to 1641, the Scottish flags of the Covenant armies between 1639 and 1650, flags from the English campaign against the Irish of 1641-42, and flags designed for the Irish Catholic Confederacy in 1644. To compile what follows, it was necessary to go to many sources to obtain descriptions and illustrations. In a precious few instances, actual flags have survived, but for the most part one is dependent upon descriptions in the newsletters of the day, upon the past enthusiasm of heralds and antiquaries who painstakingly recorded and drew the flags they saw, upon what appears to have been the report of a spy, and upon other chance records. The sources I consulted are described in greater detail below. Here, I would like only to express my appreciation for the help I have received from a small group of scholars of the Civil Wars who share my interest in the military flags. These scholars have largely concerned themselves not so much with the emblematic properties of the flags as with the insights the flags provide

into regimental history. These same scholars have often also been the inspiration behind those by now familiar English cultural events—the re-enactments of Civil War battles. I wish in particular to acknowledge the generous help and encouragement I have received from Stephen Ede-Borrett, author of a number of publications on the English Civil Wars. He read early drafts of my material and consequently helped me avoid many a pitfall. Needless to say, any remaining errors are entirely my own responsibility. Other help that I wish to acknowledge came from a number of fellow students of the emblem, in particular Michael Bath (University of Strathclyde), John Manning (The Queen's University of Belfast), Daniel Russell (University of Pittsburgh), and above all the general editor of this series, Peter Daly (McGill University). To my colleague Beert Verstraete (Acadia University), who assisted me in the translation of the Latin mottoes, I owe a special debt. I also wish to acknowledge the assistance of the following: Rev. William Barber (retired Rector of Bromesberrow, Glous.), Peter B. Bryden (Head of Archives, National Army Museum), Jean-Pierre Chambre (Arras, France), John Creasey (Librarian, Dr. Williams's Library), Daniel W. Doerksen (University of New Brunswick), Lesley Le Claire (Librarian, Worcester College, Oxford), David Ryan (Partizan Press), Whitney Smith (Flag Research Center, Winchester, Mass), Paul V. Walsh (Springfield, PA), Catherine Whistler (Assistant Keeper, Ashmolean Museum), Claire Wright (National Army Museum), Robert C. Yorke (Archivist, The College of Arms). In addition, I wish to thank the staff of the Ashmolean Museum, the Bodleian Library, the British Library, the Public Record Office, Dr. Williams's Library, and the National Army Museum. Most especially, I thank the staff of the Firestone Library at Princeton and the English Department of Princeton University. Much of the research for this volume was completed during my term as a Visiting Fellow at Princeton. I also wish to record my gratitude to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada, from which I received a research grant in support of this project. I also wish to note that this book has been published with the help of a grant from the Canadian Federation for the Humanities, using funds provided by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada. Finally, I wish to record my deep and enduring gratitude to my wife, Wendy Katz, who, stoically and always good-humouredly, suffered my 'odd' scholarly enthusiasms and encouraged me throughout the years it has taken to bring this project to completion.

GLOSSARIES Commonly-Used Terms Book of Common Prayer: the official Church of England prayer book. Charles Fs attempts to impose a version upon the Scots was a leading cause of the Bishops' Wars. On 4 January 1645 Parliament abolished it and imposed penalties upon those who used it. A revised Book of Common Prayer was introduced following the Restoration. Cavalier: term for Royalist during the Civil Wars. The Parliamentarians used it as a term of abuse, but for the Cavaliers themselves the term came to embody the concept of honour and gentility. Clubmen: armed resisters to both sides in the Civil Wars, chiefly consisting of farmers and country people in the west who did not want the war fought in their region. Commonwealth: the term loosely applied to the period between the execution of Charles I and the restoration of Charles II. However, it is more accurate to define it as the period between the declaration of the Republic (19 May 1649) and the beginning of the Protectorate (16 December 1653). Compound (Composition): system whereby a Royalist or Catholic Recusant could settle according to a graduated scale for past 'misconduct' against Parliament by paying a fine levied upon his property. Covenant: (see Solemn League and Covenant) Covenanters: term generally applied to Scottish Presbyterian soldiers (see Solemn League and Covenant). Delinquents: Parliamentary term for those who supported Charles I, whether actively or passively. Dragoons: mounted infantrymen. They almost always fought on foot, using their horses to move from place to place. Eastern Association: Parliamentary alliance of various eastern counties from which was recruited an army commanded by the Earl of Manchester. Episcopacy: system of church government that involved bishops. The system was abolished in Scotland in 1638 and in England in 1646. Episcopacy was re-established in England at the Restoration. Fifth Monarchists: believers in the imminence of a fifth monarchy (that of Christ). Active in the 1650s, they were willing to use violent means to prepare for the supposed new era. Five Members: the five Members of Parliament whom Charles I attempted to arrest in the House of Commons itself. The members, who were forewarned, managed to escape before the King arrived. They were John Hampden, Sir Arthur Hesilrigge, Denzil Holies, John Pym, and William Strode. Foot: a general term for infantry soldiers. Forlorn Hope: a body of soldiers positioned prior to battle in such a way that they would suffer the full brunt of the enemy's initial attack and thus allow their fellows a greater chance of success in the ensuing engagement. Horse: term for cavalry. Independent Troop: a troop that was never regimented. Many of the County Troops, for example, were not regimented even though they existed throughout the War. Independents: a general term applying to many sects sharing a common rejection of state-regulated worship. Irish Catholic Confederacy: an alliance between Irish Catholics that provided an alternative government for Ireland. In return for the cessation of hostilites against them on 23 April 1643, Charles I hoped to free troops for service in England. Laudian: descriptive term for anyone or anything associated with the policies of Archbishop Laud, who favoured uniformity in worship, the use of a common prayer book, and the establishment of

certain ceremonial rituals and reforms in church furnishings that many Parliamentarians considered 'papist' in character. Levellers: a radical group that sought an agreement with the Royalists, the abolition of the House of Lords, and religious toleration. Statements of Leveller ideas appeared in the Large Petition of 1647, the Humble Petition of 1648, and the Agreement of the People of 1 May 1649. The movement was particularly active between 1647 and 1649. Long Parliament: met on 3 November 1640 and was not dissolved until 16 March 1660. Following Pride's Purge in 1648, it was known as the Rump. Cromwell expelled the Rump in 1653, and Parliament did not meet again until 1659. Magna Carta: the treaty obtained from King John by the nobility in the 13th century. It was a central tenet of Parliamentarian political belief that the principles set out in Magna Carta were under attack by Charles I and his advisors. Midland Association: association of Midland counties from which an army was recruited led by Lord Grey of Groby. New Model Army: the Parliamentary army created in 1645 following dissatisfaction with the current Parliamentary armies. Northern Association: grouping of the north-eastern counties from which a Parliamentary army was recruited. Parliamentarian: one who supported, whether in arms or otherwise, the cause of Parliament during the Civil War period. Presbyterian: one who believed in the government of the church by presbyters. By definition Presbyterians were opposed to episcopacy. Pride's Purge: a purge of Members of Parliament conducted chiefly by Colonel Thomas Price on 6 December 1648. The M.P.s turned away on that day were considered to be hostile to the army. Parliament thereafter was known as the Rump. Protectorate: established on 16 December 1653, the Protectorate involved government by a Protector (Oliver Cromwell), a Council of State, and the House of Commons (a Second Chamber was added in 1657). It ended on 25 May 1659 when Cromwell's son Richard abdicated, having succeeded on the death of his father in 1658. Puritans: a broad term, particularly difficult to define with regard to the Civil Wars, that can embrace Presbyteri spiritual matters and down-played or opposed any form of state or regulated system of worship. They emphasized preaching and the reading of the Bible while seeking reforms in matters of ritual and worship. Recusants: those (particularly Roman Catholics or Quakers) who refused to attend the services of the Church of England. Recusants were fined severely. During the Civil Wars, the estates of Catholics were sequestered as a means of raising money for the Parliamentary armies. Initially, they were not permitted to compound for their estates. Regicides: the 59 persons who signed Charles I's death warrant, together with the two executioners. Later, Royalists sought vengeance against the Regicides. Royalist: one who supported Charles I and Charles II, whether in arms or otherwise, during the Civil War period. Restoration: the restoration of the monarchy under Charles II in May 1660. Root and Branch Bill: a bill of 1641 in response to a petition of some 15,000 London citizens. In essence the petition sought the abolition of the episcopacy 'with all its dependencies, roots and branches.' Roundhead: a term of opprobrium used for Parliamentarians.

INTRODUCTION THE ENGLISH CIVIL WAR FLAGS Most students of the English emblem have to date chiefly been concerned with printed emblem books, but increasingly scholars have recognized that within English culture at large a more considerable body of emblematic material once existed in more ephemeral media: jewelry, tapestries, embroideries, carved chimney pieces, painted portraits, decorated armour, and the painted shields used in masques and tournaments, to name only some of the main examples. Because such media were part and parcel of a way of life of an elite that was privileged in terms of wealth, education, and political power, it is difficult to know how much the sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century fashion for all things emblematic was shared at other levels of the social spectrum. However, that vast numbers of Londoners attended lord Mayor's Shows, royal entries, and the tournaments held in Tudor and Jacobean times, and the fact that much emphasis was placed in these forms of spectacle upon emblematic presentation, suggests that the popular consciousness shared to some degree in the fascination with the emblematic mode. In August 1642, when King Charles I raised his standard at Nottingham, he launched that tragic period of English history known variously as the 'Great Civil War,' the 'Great Rebellion,' the 'Puritan Revolution,' the 'English Revolution,' the 'War in Three Kingdoms,' or (in recognition that several conflicts were involved) the plural 'Civil Wars.'1 Unwittingly, he opened the way for a quite unexpected outpouring of emblematic creativity, one that was to be very public in nature. The origins of the phenomenon were explained by Thomas Blount in 1646. In the prefatory epistle to his The Art of Making Devises, Blount refers to the important function of emblematic devices in Tiltings, Tournaments, and Masques.' He then reminds his English readers that although the ongoing civil war has resulted in such entertainments being 'for the present laid aside,' there is still a role for emblematic devices: 'as those Justing or jesting Wars are disused, so have we now an earnest, though much to be lamented Warre, which renders them more usefull then ever.' Blount then goes on to say that the kind of emblematic device formerly used on the shields of knights at English tournaments has now transferred itself to the military flags of the warring factions.2 Such flags were of course familiar to the soldiers who served under them, but because armies tramped the length and breadth of the country, they were observed by countless other citizens not directly involved in the fighting. Interest in the flags appears to have been considerable. They were often described in newspaper accounts, and they were put on public display when captured. The material in this volume is a product of the descriptions and drawings made by a number of eye-witnesses, who thus provided a permanent record of one of the richest and most substantial bodies of English emblematic art. Blount was correct in suggesting that the most immediate origin of the Civil War flag devices was to be found among those created earlier for tournaments. With their characteristic combination of motto and picture designed to express the personal intentions, aspirations, or state of mind of their bearers, the emblematic devices used in English tournaments (or imprese to use the most common descriptive term for the art form) had somewhat obscure origins and were the product of numerous influences, especially important among which was the necessity for a man in armour to have some means of identification, whether in war or during a tournament. The coat of arms had in part served this function, but heraldic insignia, because they were fixed, did not permit the same kind of personal statement and exercise of witty invention that were possible with an emblematic device created especially for a particular occasion or cause. Besides, there was a particular reason for not using coat-armour upon one's flag. As Gervase Markham explained in The Sovldiers Accidence (London, 1635), he 'that in his Colours shall carry full Coate-Armour, doth indiscreetly; for he puts that honor to hazard, which he may with more honor keepe

Introduction

in safetie, and inticeth his enemie by such ostentation to darre beyond his owne nature' (p 32).3 Thomas Venn, writing after the Restoration, echoed the same sentiment.4 That said, however, it should be noted that the use of one's heraldic colours on a cornet was a common practice (one recommended by Markham),5 and in Scotland the inclusion of one's crest or some part of it was almost standard, and not unknown in England.6 In only a few rare instances that I have come across was coat armour used on either ensigns or cornets.7 As an alternative to using anything derived from a rest or coat-armour, a number of Colonels of Foot used their family badge, a practice that had its origins in the medieval use of family badges on military standards. In 1644, for example, Sir Edward Stradling's Regiment of Foot used the Stradling cinquefoil, Lord Percy's the Percy crescent, and Sir Gilbert Talbot's the talbot-hound.8 It was Paolo Giovio, in his influential Dialogo delle imprese militare e amorose (Rome, 1555), who provided the standard explanation of the lineage of the emblematic device employed in warfare. He pointed out that following the invasion of the Italian peninsula by the forces of Charles VIII and Louis XII, the military profession in Italy imitated their French counterparts by adorning themselves with imprese embroidered on their breasts and backs as a convenient way of distinguishing one military unit from another in battle.9 However, he was careful to trace the origins of this practice back to the ancients, who, according to such authorities as Virgil, Pindar, Statius, and Plutarch, used crests and ornaments on their shields and helmets. It is also clear from what we know about tournaments that romances such as Amadis de Gaule, Primaleon, Palmerin de Oliva, and Tirant lo blanch, and the devices ascribed to the heroes of such works and to such figures as Orlando, Rinaldo, Oliver, Ganelon, and King Arthur were equally influential on Renaissance practice. Samuel Daniel, elaborating upon Giovio and fully aware of the long-established use of emblematic devices in England at tournaments and masques, was also aware of their place in warfare. In the 1585 prefatory epistle to his translation of Giovio, he remarked that emblematic devices 'are neuer worne but either in true or fained warre, or at lusts, Turneis, Maskes, or at such like extrauagant shewes.'10 Fifty-seven years later in England, 'lusts, Turneis, Maskes' and their accompanying emblematic device were no more. But, as Blount explained, the emblematic device had retained its other role, and in 1642 it had been revived as a tool of 'true' rather than 'fained' war when bloody internal conflict broke out and began to change Britain for ever. Uses of Emblematic Devices in War Both of the principal combatants in the English Civil Wars (King and Parliament) had continual difficulties in the field with problems of recognition. Though attempts were made as the conflict progressed to give a distinctive uniform to whole units of infantry (cavalry on both sides tended to wear buff coats and distinguish themselves in other ways) and even regiments,11 both sides had frequently to rely upon 'field signs' and 'field words.'12 The former could be almost any form of visual identification that proclaimed the wearer's allegiance. Coloured sashes, for the most part restricted to officers and to cavalrymen, were a favourite. So long as both sides used different colours, they were moderately effective as 'signs.' Royalists tended to favour red sashes, often accompanied by red and white feathers in helmets or hats, and Parliamentarians tended to choose other colours, the most familiar being the orange-tawny sashes associated with the Parliamentary army commanded by the Earl of Essex. Hat ribbons were also used in this way, and again among Royalists red was a favourite colour. Examples of other such 'signs' were white handkerchiefs (employed at the relief of Basing House in 1644), bands of paper (employed by some Parliamentarians at Naseby), and sprigs of foliage (employed by the Parliamentarians at 1st Newbury), all attached to the helmet, the hat, or upper arm. At the storming of Dartmouth by the New Model Army in January 1646, The Parliament soldiers adopted a most unusual mode of dress by having 'their shirts out before and behind.'13 Almost as important as 'field signs' were 'field words' or passwords. At Naseby, for example, the Royalist 'field word' was 'Queen Mary,' while that of the Parliament

forces was 'God is our Strength,' at Cropredy Bridge the Royalists had 'Hand and Sword' and their opponents had 'Victory without Quarter,' and at Alton the Royalists had 'Charles' and the Parliamentarians had Truth and Victory.' When the Scottish army fought against Montrose at the Battle of Tippermuir in September 1644, its word was the fearful 'Jesus and no quarter,'14 and at Dunbar in 1650, the Scots used 'The Covenant' and Cromwell's army chose 'The Lord of Hosts.'15 All such devices, however, were easily open to misinterpretation and abuse. At Marston Moor, for example, Fairfax, after taking the white handkerchief from his hat, was able to pass through the enemy lines with impunity. Two years before, the Royal banner that was lost at Edgehill and that had cost the life of the King's standard-bearer, Sir Edmund Verney, was recaptured when Captain John Smith, a Catholic officer of the King's Life Guards, and three companions disguised themselves in orange-tawny scarves, passed freely through the Parliament lines, and seized the standard from Mr. Chambers, Cromwell's secretary.16 Somewhat later in the war in September 1644, the same trick worked again when Royalist soldiers disguised themselves as Parliamentarians when going to the relief of Basing House by wearing orange-tawny scarves and hat ribbons.17 Where mistakes were made, the results could be tragic for the party concerned. When Sir Faithful Fortescue at the Battle of Edgehill led his troop over to the Royalist side, a number of his men were killed because they forgot to remove their orange sashes. Then, at Chalgrove, a number of Parliamentarians wearing red sashes were spared by the Royalists because it was assumed they were Royalists, whereas at the same engagement a certain Mr. Howard and Captain Gardner mistook some red sashes as belonging to Parliamentarians, followed them, and were captured.18 More helpful, though by no means infallible as a means of identification,19 were the various types of flags: colours (otherwise known as ensigns) for units of foot soldiers, cornets for units of horse, and guidons, the two-pointed pennons for units of dragoons.20 Flags were made from lengths of silk (taffeta or the cheaper sarcenet),21 and they were made up by tailors. Their size and shape varied according to the nature of the military unit. A company of foot would have a colour approximately six and a half feet (2.0 metres) square. An ensign of this type would be carried on a pole that was about seven and a half to eight feet (2.29 to 2.44 metres) in height and surmounted by a finial of iron or brass shaped like a spear head. Two short decorative cords hung from the base of the finial.22 The company officer entrusted with the company flag during any action had the rank of ensign, this title lending itself to the commonly-used term for the flag itself. Each regiment of foot would generally use similar ensigns but would follow a system of differencing, so that the ensign of each of its companies was distinct in some way from that of other companies in the same regiment. By this means soldiers were assisted in regrouping with their units if they became separated in the chaos of battle. The necessity for such a means of identification was noted by Ward in his Animadversions ofWarre (1639) in which he notes that the colonel of a regiment 'ought to have all the Colours of his Regiment to be alike, both in colour and fashion to avoide confusion so that the souldiers may discerne their owne Regiment from the other Troopes; likewise, every particular Captaine of his Regiment may have some small distinction in their Colours; as their Armes, or some Embleme, or the like, so that one Company may be discerned from another.' For the most part such ensigns of foot were largely abstract in design, and, though certain writers of the time on military affairs outlined elaborate explanations of the symbolic meaning of the various available tinctures for flags,23 such schemes appear to have been ignored. There is no evidence that I am aware of that would permit one to attach any emblematic significance to the actual tincture chosen for a flag. Thus, though John Lucas in his manuscript compilation of the flags of the London Trained Bands explained that red 'Signifieth Justice or a noble and worthy anger in the defense of Religion or the oppressed' (he gave other interepretations for White, Yellow, Blue, Green, Orange, Black, Purple, and Mauve), there is no sign that suggests the members of the Trained Bands themselves attached any significance to the colours of the flags under which they served. Any distinguishing marks used to create a system of differencing in an infantry regiment were painted

xxvi

Introduction

upon whatever base tincture was provided by the underlying silk of the flag. The painter was not the same person as the tailor who made up the material. Thus, when Charles Fairfax ordered ensigns for his regiment of foot in May 1649, he asked that the taffata be obtained 'at Mr. Cutter's or where it may best be had,' but his chosen device should be 'painted by my old friend Mr. Knight, a herault that dwells in Shoe Lane.'24 It is important to note that as part of any system of differencing few ensigns used mottoes and few used any kind of emblematic device.25 The system of differencing they most commonly employed was described by Captain Thomas Venn in his Military Observations, Or the Tacticks Put into Practice (London, 1672): The Colonels Colours in the first place is of a pure and clean colour, without any mixture. The Lieutenant Colonels only with Saint Georges Armes in the upper corner next the staff; The Majors the same; but in the lower and outermost corner with a little stream Blazant, And every Captain with Saint Georges Armes alone, but with so many spots or several Devices as pertain to the dignity of their respective places.26 This, together with the variation upon it by which the major's colour is distinguished by a single device and subsequent captains by two or more repetitions of the same device, is the most common system. Other distinct systems are known to have been used, but their intricacies need be of no concern here.27 Cornets of horse were somewhat different from ensigns of foot. They were much smaller (approximately 2 feet or 0.6 metres square), no doubt because a larger flag would have been impractical for a mounted soldier. They were carried on lances eight to nine feet (2.44 to 2.74 metres) in length. As Gervase Markham explained, the officer (cornet) bearing his captain's flag should carry it, ... charged on his right thigh ... The substance of the Cornet should be of Damaske, and the forme must be almost square, (onely a little longer from the staffe then on the staffe,) and fringed about sutablie. The staffe shall be small like a foote Ensigne, and not so long as an ordinary Launce; it must be headed with Steele, and either guilt or silverd; with faire Tassels sutable to the Cornet. If the Cornet belong to a greater Officer, it shall then be of one entire Colour, of lesse quantitie and full square; And in this Cornet, the Captaine may carrie devise and word, or els none, at his owne pleasure. (The Sovldiers Accidence, p 44) What Markham says is clearly depicted in the woodcut frontispiece to George Wither's Campo-Musae, Or the Field-Musings of Captain George Wither (London, 1643). This depiction of a cornet shows all the features Markham describes, including Wither's motto ('Pro rege lege grege') and the accompanying emblematic device of crossed sword and pen. In addition, the woodcut shows the staff of the cornet attached to a baldric that would be worn by its bearer when on horseback. As Markham's description and Wither's frontispiece make clear, cornets were far more varied in design and colour than ensigns of foot. They included, for example, a decorative fringe on three sides, and, although the cornets of colonels were generally plain, those of lower ranking officers, particularly captains, were highly individualistic, and it is among these flags that the use of mottoes and emblematic pictures was most common. However, though there may have been considerable freedom of expression with regard to the individual invention of each emblematic cornet device, the same freedom did not extend to the field and fringe of the cornet. Though not mentioned by Markham, troops of horse within the same regiment shared the same field and fringe tinctures, thereby ensuring a degree of uniformity. Also not mentioned by Markham is that whereas an ensign appears to have been regarded as belonging to the company that carried it, so that it remained with a company even if its commanding officer changed, a cornet was

xxvii

associated far more with the officer who commanded the troop that carried it and was consequently not passed on if the troop commander changed. Indeed, one may assume that the emblematic signs on cornets were frequently the invention of the officers themselves and hence expressive, in the manner of an impresa, of their own point of view concerning the wars and their role in them. But, like modern bumper-stickers, they were also designed to influence those who saw them. They were, as I hope to demonstrate below, a form of propaganda. They proclaimed a cause and sought in many instances to justify that cause to the viewer. As such, they were part of that much broader propaganda war for minds and hearts that accompanied the military conflict. Guidons, concerning which surviving information is relatively slight, were about the same size as cornets. They too were fringed, but were clearly distinguishable on account of their swallow-tail shape. Designed to be used by dragoons, a form of mounted infantry that usually fought on foot, travelling from place to place on horseback but never charging like units of horse,28 guidons appear to have followed the system of differencing employed by regiments of foot for their ensigns. A number of the guidons that we know about also employed mottoes, and for that reason they too are included in the Index. Those of Colonel Wardlaw's regiment, for example, were uniformly blue and fringed in gold, with a white canton and red St. George cross. They bore no pictures, but each, except that of the Colonel, had a different motto in gold letters. Sources Fortunately, as already remarked, descriptions, drawings, and prints of the flags of the Civil War are fairly numerous. As can been seen from this Index, information concerning almost 500 of those having mottoes, pictures or both has survived.29 The most important source of information about the flags is found in a group of manuscripts providing hundreds of what are often coloured illustrations of Civil War flags. The motives behind the compilation of these manuscripts are somewhat obscure. In at least one instance where someone carefully copied down the names of all the commanders and descriptions of all the colours of the London Trained Bands, the artist (William Levett) was probably a Royalist spy. In other instances, the manuscripts appear to have been in part the product of the antiquarian's desire to record such material for its own sake. However, there may on occasion have been a more official purpose. Following any major engagement when Royalist flags were captured, the Parliamentary forces returned the flags to Westminster where they were put on display.30 This was certainly the case following the Battle of Marston Moor (1 July, 1644), for example, when the flags and prisoners captured by Parliament were paraded through the streets of London and then described in a printed pamphlet.31 After the storming of Basing House, Hugh Peters (the army chaplain) was entrusted with making a report on the engagement to Parliament, during which he 'presented the Marquisses [i.e. the Marquis of Winchester's] own Colours, which he brought from Basing, the motto of which was, Donee pax reddit terris; ,..'32 A few months before, William Ryley, the official Parliamentary herald, had been ordered by Parliament following the Battle of Naseby (14 June 1645) to register and preserve 'in some convenient Place' all captured flags 'that have at any time formerly, or shall at any time hereafter, be taken from the Enemy.'33 That 'convenient Place' appears to have been Westminster Hall, an accessible and splendid location for Parliament to show off the spoils of victory. Following the Parliamentary victories at Preston (17 August 1648) and Dunbar (3 September 1650), the captured flags were sent to Westminster. One report at the time, anticipating the arrival of the flags in London, stated that when all of them arrive 'it is conceived the Parliament will give order for hanging them up (as Trophies) in Westminster Hall, the Abbey, or some other eminent place.'34 The following January, 'A Book was presented to the Parliament by Mr. Speaker, from Mr. Ryley; being a perfect Registry of all the Colours taken from the Scotts^5 Later that year, following the Battle of Worcester (3 September 1651). Cromwell sent Captain Orpyn 'with the Colours

taken in the late fight;—at least as many of them as came to my hands, for I think very many of them have miscarried. I believe the number of these sent will be about an Hundred.'36 The Commons then ordered that 'these several Colours taken in the Fight at Worcester, be hung up in Westminster Hall, by Mr. Riley, Norroy King at Arms: And the Number, with the Motto's and Devices, be by him entered in the Book with the rest; ,..'37 Unfortunately, Riley's registries of captured flags can no longer be found. They do not appear to be in the Public Record Office, the College of Arms, or the British Library, nor can they be found in the most likely location, the House of Lords Record Office. It seems very probable that they disappeared in the disastrous Tally-Stick' fire of 1834 that destroyed so many important Parliamentary records.38 As for the flags themselves, these were hurriedly removed from Westminster Hall on the eve of the Restoration of Charles II. On 9 May 1660, Parliament ordered that the Commonwealth arms be removed and replaced with 'the King's Majesty's Arms' and the next day further ordered 'That the Scots Colours, taken at Dunbar and Worcester, and now hanging up in Westminster-hall, be forthwith taken down: ,..'39 However, even without Riley's work, there has survived a substantial record of many Civil War flags in the work of others. Perhaps acting in some form of official capacity, Jonathan Turmile drew pictures of a number of the flags captured by the Parliament armies at Edgehill (23 October 1642), Cirencester (15 September 1643), Newbury (20 September 1643), Marston Moor (2 July 1644), Naseby (14 June 1645), and elsewhere in smaller engagements during the early years of the conflict, and the care with which even damaged flags are drawn suggests that Turmile was directly copying the captured flags.40 The bulk of Turmile's manuscript, however, is a record of Parliamentary flags. Somewhat later, following the Battles of Preston and Dunbar, another heraldic painter, Fitz-Paine Fisher, painstakingly illustrated 'A Perfect Registry' of all the flags captured on those two occasions. After Preston and the surrender on Warrington Bridge (19 August 1648) of the entire twenty regiments of Scottish Foot, a very large number of ensigns were handed over, and, six days later, when the Horse surrendered, at least two cornets were taken.41 Those flags that eventually reached London provided Fisher with the first part of his work. Following the Battle of Dunbar, Cromwell told his son's father-in-law that 'about two-hundred colours' had been taken, and in a later letter to Parliament he mentions 'forty or fifty, which were taken at the engagement in Fife' (i.e. Inverkeithing).42 In his 'A Perfect Registry of all the Collovrs Taken from the Scotts,' Fitz-Paine Fisher depicted the ensigns and cornets that eventually reached London and hence provided one of the most comprehensive of the extant records.43 Like Turmile's pictures of captured Royalist flags, it too appears to have been made from direct observations of the flags themselves since damaged flags are shown as such. Was this work commissioned by Riley, one wonders, and presented to Parliament in January 1651,44 or (if not) was it a copy of Riley's register? As the following list will show, other illustrated manuscripts of the Civil War flags are also extant, most of them consisting of descriptions and drawings of Parliamentary flags only. These include two manuscripts dealing with the ensigns of the Trained Bands of London and largely devoid of mottoes or emblematic devices. They hence are of no great significance to this study. Other manuscripts seem to be of varying date and often contain material that can be found in other more authoritative manuscripts. Only occasionally do they contain a unique record of a flag. For the most part the various manuscripts listed do not record their authors' names. Their sheer number is of some significance, however, since it attests to the strong interest at the time in the flags.

(b) Printed Sources In addition to the manuscript sources are printed materials. Of major importance is the dedicatory epistle to Blount's The An of Making Devises (1646). This contains descriptions of six Royalist and six Parliamentary emblematic flag devices. To this should be added the extensive 'Catalogue of CORONETDEVISES both on the Kings, and the Parliaments side in the late Warre' and the catalogue of 'CORONET-DEVISES FOR IRELAND' that he appended to the 1648 edition.46 He then expanded this material yet again in the 1655 edition by first adding material to his original catalogue of flags designed for use in quelling the Irish rebellion. He then added some additional lists: a catalogue of 'CORNETS, taken from the Irish Rebels in the late warres, the Bearers names not known' (all flags of the Irish Catholic Confederacy); a catalogue of 'COLORS both of Horse and Foot taken from the Scots under the Command of Duke Hamilton at the Battle of Preston in Lancaster in the yeare 1648'; a catalogue of 'SCOTCH COLOURS taken at the Battle of Dunbar in Scotland on the 3 of September 1650, as they are marshalled and hang up in Westminster hall, by order of Parliament, dated the 10 of September 1651'; and a catalogue of 'CORNET-DEVISES on the late King's part in the first Warre, omitted in their due places.' Although Blount only included one picture (a rebus used on one cornet), his descriptions of Civil War flags are invaluable for the comments that accompany them. Furthermore, some of the material, particularly that dealing with Royalist flags, is not to be found in any other seventeenth-century source.47 Less familiar is John Prestwich's Prestwich's Respublica (London, 1787), an unillustrated work with very detailed descriptions of over two hundred Parliamentary items. However, this is largely based on one of the manuscript compilations now in the British Library,48 and, though useful for its commentaries, is not as authoritative a source as the original manuscript. Also dating from the eighteenth century are two broadsides, each containing 48 illustrations. One shows Parliamentary, the other Royalist devices. They were printed in 1722 by Jonathan Cole and intended 'to be bound up with ye Lord Clarendons His[tory].' Copies exist in the Ashmolean Museum (Sutherland Collection), Oxford. The sheet of Cole's Parliamentary flags follows almost exactly the sequence of the manuscript collection of flag descriptions now in the Bodleian Library and listed above. The source of the broadsheet may have been this manuscript or some related version of it. However, sixteen of Cole's illustrations of flags are not contained in the Bodleian

English Emblem Tradition

xxxi

manuscript, but all sixteen of these flags are illustrated in the same British Library manuscript that Prestwich probably drew upon.49 I have, on the other hand, to date not found any obvious source for Cole's sheet of Royalist flags, but Blount's book seems the most likely since all the Royalist devices on Cole's sheet are in Blount, although the sequence is somewhat (but not totally) different. If I am correct in assuming that Cole's two broadsheets are based on existing manuscript and printed sources, then clearly they do not carry much authority. However, in the case of the Royalist flags, for which Cole's artist appears to have relied on the descriptions in Blount, the pictures are the only ones available and for that reason have been reproduced in this volume. We should be aware, however, that his pictures may only be imaginative reconstructions and not copies of existing flags or drawings of them. In addition to such sources, there are numerous references to the flags in contemporary newsletter accounts of military engagements and in the memoirs and diaries of participants. Of these types of sources, the most detailed record is A Full Relation of the Late Victory (London, 11 July 1644), one of a number of descriptions of the Parliamentary victory at Marston Moor. This contains a 'List of the Coronets and Ensignes, with their severall Motto's. Sent by the three Generals to the Parliament, By Captain [William] Stewart.' In all, some twenty-one cornets and twenty-six ensigns captured from the Royalists are described.50 Many more were captured but, as one contemporary account explains, 'though there was a Proclamation made to bring them in to the Generals, yet the Soldiers had already torn to pieces most of them, delighting to wear the Shreds in their Hats.'51 Equally useful is another Parliamentary tract published in London in 1645 following the victory at Naseby. It too includes a lengthy list of captured Royalist flags. Its title is self-explanatory: The Manner how the Prisoners are to be Brought into the City of LONDON this Present Saturday being the 21. day of lune, 1645 ... And in what manner they are to March through the City with their Colours that were taken ...As ALSO, A List of the Figures and Mottoes of the said Colours, and how afterwards they are to be disposed of. This document describes in detail about fifty-five captured Royalist flags (six of them cornets) and mentions that there are another thirty yet to arrive. Like those captured at Marston Moor, all the captured flags 'are to be Carried (splaying) before the prisoners,' as they are marched through London.52 Finally, there is the description of ten cornets designed for use by the Irish Catholic Confederacy and September to 5 October 1644). Blount probably used this report when he prepared his catalogue of 'CORNETS, taken from the Irish Rebels in the late warres, the Bearers names not known.'53 (c) Surviving Flags as Sources In addition to manuscript and printed sources, there are several Civil War flags that have survived. The most interesting are the two cornets of horse preserved in St. Mary's Church, Bromsberrow, a village in the north-west corner of Gloucestershire.54 One has the Royalist motto 'Religio Protestantium Leges Angliae Libertates Parlamentorum' (The religion of Protestantism, the laws of England, the freedoms of parliaments). This motto has been painted on and placed within a border of laurel leaves. The flag is made of white silk and measures 21 by 18 inches (0.53 x 0.46 metres). Its fringe is of red and white silk and gold twist, and there are cords and tassels of the same. The iron finial is five inches (12.7 cms) long. The cornet appears to have been that of Captain-Lieutenant Rhys Yate of Charles Gerard's Horse. The other flag at Bromsberrow is a Parliamentary flag that may have been that of a Captain Bragge. It is made of red silk, measures twenty-one by thirty inches, and has the motto 'Ora et pugna iuvit et iuvabit lehovah' (Pray and fight. God helps and will help). The emblematic device consists of an arm and hand in armour issuing from a cloud with a drawn sword. The colour of the flag according to early sources is tawny (the colour most in favour among the followers of the Earl of Essex), but modern accounts describe it as red. Another surviving flag (a colour of foot rather than a cornet) remains in the possession of a descendant of Colonel Sir John Cell, the Parliamentarian commander of Derbyshire. Approximately six feet (1.83

xxxii

Introduction

metres) in height and six feet six inches (1.98 metres) wide, the flag is constructed of two lengths of gold silk with a horizontal seam. Upon this in the upper corner next to the hoist has been sewn a canton consisting of a two-foot (0.61 metres) square piece of white silk upon which is the red cross of St. George. The sleeve is only large enough to contain a one and a half inch (3.8 cms) diameter pole. Attached to the top of the sleeve are two 15-inch (0.38 metres) gold cords ending in tassels. Like most ensigns of foot, there is no motto or emblematic device. There is, however, a differencing mark consisting of five dark blue stars that have been stenciled on and that extend from the canton to the opposite bottom corner.55 The National Army Museum possesses another such ensign (formerly in the Royal United Services Institute), but this may date from just prior to the Civil War. It is approximately six and a half feet (1.98 metres) in height and seven feet (2.13 metres) wide with a canton two feet two inches (0.66 metres) in height and two feet seven inches 0.79 metres) wide. The ensign is blue in colour, has no motto or emblematic device, but employs a differencing mark consisting of three white piles wavy that extend from the canton to the opposite bottom corner.56 The most likely possibility is that this flag dates from about 1641 and was either designed for a pre-war Trained Band or for a regiment raised for the Bishops' Wars and disbanded in London.57 In the Royal Museum of Scotland, there are three Scottish colours of foot, all probably of the Civil War period. The field tincture of the first ensign is divided into blue and pink segments and there is a white saltire, at the centre of which is the device of a thistle. Some of the motto is missing because of the damaged nature of the ensign, but originally it probably read 'Covenant for Religion Crovne and Kingdom.' The flag (see 0050.1) is constructed of silk and is six and a half feet (1.98 metres) in width and four feet ten inches (1.47 metres) high.58 The second ensign (see 0050.2) is dark green with a white saltire. It is approximately six feet (1.83 metres) by five feet (1.52 metres). Some of the white painted lettering of the motto has flaked off but it originally read 'Covenant For Religion King and Kingdomes.' At the centre of the saltire are five red roses stalked green. The third surviving Scottish ensign was, according to tradition, carried by Colonel Scott's Regiment at Dunbar. It is five feet three inches (1.6 metres) by four feet four inches (1.32 metres), a size that has led to some doubt about its provenance. It is pale blue with a white saltire and has no other markings, so it is not included in the Index.59 Also extant, according to Ede-Borrett and McGarrigle, is a Scottish cornet (see 0050.3) with the motto 'Covenant For Religion Crovne And Kingdoms.' It is 23 inches (0.58 metres) wide by 20 and a half inches (0.52 metres) high, with a one-inch (2.54 cms) fringe around all three flying edges. It probably dates from the Second Civil War of 1648.60 One of the oldest surviving Irish flags, now preserved at the Dominican Priory in Tallaght, Co. Dublin, may date from the Civil War era. According to G.A. Hayes-McCoy,61 this was probably designed for use by the Irish Catholic Confederacy. Shaped like a guidon, though much larger (five feet one inch by three feet seven inches or 1.55 x 1.09 metres), the flag has a blue silk field, decorated with gilt arabesques representing vegetation. There is no motto, but at the centre is the figure of the Virgin and Child within a rosary,62 typical of the Catholic symbolism employed by the Confederacy and so maddening to the Parliament side. Finally, it is to be noted that the Museum of London recently acquired a folding screen upon which are displayed a series of painted emblems on silk. These may be a set of cornets from the Civil War period that were later given a very different life as an article of interior domestic decoration, but further research will be required before one can be certain whether the emblematic devices are indeed Civil War cornets. Their size is about right; their subject-matter is not unlike many of the flags listed here; and the fact that certain of them appear twice on the screen as though both sides of a flag have been used is very suggestive. However, without knowing more about their origins, it is difficult to be sure, so I have not listed them in this index.

Significance The reason for so much interest during the seventeenth century in the Civil War flags is not hard to discern. Each flag embodied the honour and military reputation of the unit it represented, and all members of a unit usually swore allegiance to their flag when they enlisted. According to the Lowes and Ordinances ofWarre, issued for the Parliamentary army in 1642 by Robert Rich, the Earl of Warwick, 'No man shall abandon his Colours, or fly away in any battell, upon paine of death' (sig C2a). Similarly, members of the Scottish army in 1644 were 'sworn unto their colours,' and each new recruit had to swear 'never to leave the defense of this Cause, nor flee from my Colours so long as I can follow them.'63 A unit's flag had to be defended to the utmost, and anything less was unacceptable. As Thomas Venn put it, 'a greater act of Cowardice cannot be found, than to suffer the Colours to be lost.'64 For a unit to lose a flag was considered a grave dishonour that, theoretically at least, could only be redeemed by the capture of an enemy flag. Thus, the Prince of Wales' troop that lost its cornet at Hopton Heath (19 March 1643) had its honour restored only when Major Thomas Daniel captured a Parliamentary banner three months later at Chalgrove Field.65 To capture an enemy flag was by the same token considered particularly meritorious. Indeed, the Scottish commander-in-chief, Alexander Leslie, even included in the Articles and Ordinances ofWarre (Edinburgh & London, 1644) the statement that 'whatsoever Officer or Souldier shall take ... the Colours of the enemy, ... shall after the laudable example of the wisest, and worthiest Kingdomes and Estates, have his honour and reward according to his worth and deserving.'66 We know, too, from the account books of the New Model Army that rewards were given to soldiers who captured colours, and we may assume that other Civil War armies followed the same practice.67 By far the bestknown stories relating to this subject concern the Battle of Edgehill and the re-capturing of flags. As already mentioned, when Sir Edmund Verney was killed and the Royal standard captured, the standard was later recovered by Captain John Smith and three companions in an act of considerable daring and bravery, something for which Smith was knighted and given a special medal. In a separate incident during the same battle, Robert Welch, an Irishman in command of a troop of horse, recovered the standards of the King's Own Regiment. The following morning Prince Rupert presented Welch to Charles I, who conferred a knighthood upon him. The following year, on 1 June, a Royal Warrant was issued to make a gold medal for Welch.68 It was the ensign or cornet, the junior and third-ranking officers respectively in a company of foot or troop of horse, who served as bearers of flags. Such an office was understandably considered a great honour, but, as already noted, with it went the obligation to defend the flag to the utmost. It need not surprise us, then, that in the various surviving lists of the slain, ensigns and cornets seem to figure fairly prominently. Not surprisingly, the importance attached to captured flags meant that the degree to which one side had been defeated or had proved itself victorious in an engagement was measured, not solely by the numbers and the social rank of those killed or captured, but also by the numbers of flags captured. This in part explains why reports of military engagements are often so careful to note the numbers of flags that exchanged hands. Following the Battle of Marston Moor, for example, the victorious Parliamentarians reported that 'We took (to use the hyperbole) Colours without number, enough to make Surplices for all the Cathedrals in England, were they white.'69 In his report on the Parliamentary victory at Naseby, to cite only one further example, Joshua Sprigge listed the numbers and ranks of the prisoners taken (about 5,000), the number of those slain (uncertain at the time because of the army's speedy advance), the nature of the booty ('very rich and considerable'), the artillery pieces, wagons, and ammunition captured, the number of horses taken (200), and the number and significance of the flags captured: 'the Kings Colours, the Duke of Yorks Standard, and six of his Colours, four of the Queens white Colours, with double Crosses on each of them, and near one hundred other Colours both of horse and foot, ...'70 For those observing an army on the march or formed up ready for action, flags were also important

Introduction

as a rough and ready means of estimating the size of the army in question.71 Unless it was under strength (and it usually was due to sickness, desertion, and 'wastage'), a regiment of foot carried ten colours, one for each company. Theoretically, a regiment was made up of about 1,200 men, divided either into equal companies of 100 men or into companies of 200 men (the Colonel's), 160 men (the Lieut.-Colonel's), 140 men (the Major's), and 100 men (for each of the seven Captains). Both the Earl of Essex's army of 1642 and the New Model Army of 1645 used this latter system, while the Scottish army for service in Ireland in 1642 used companies of equal numbers. In the New Model Army cavalry, each regiment of horse generally had six troops, averaging some 100 men each when at full strength; however, a size of 60 to 80 men was normal in earlier armies. With such practices being common knowledge, it was thus possible to make a rough estimate of an army's numbers, even from some distance, according to the number of flags it displayed. Of more significance to the concerns of this volume, however, is what the emblematic devices employed on the Civil War flags have to say and how they say it. To be fully understood, these matters are best examined, I believe, within the broader context of the clash of ideologies, both political and religious, that spawned the war. In particular, the emblematic use of word and picture as a combative tool needs to be seen within the broader context of the propaganda war fought between Royalist and Parliamentarian presses before, during and even after the various military conflicts. As I hope this volume will reveal, the gentlemanly art of composing emblematic devices had now become part of an immense and cataclysmic struggle for hearts and minds. This is not the place to review in detail the scope of the unprecedented torrent of printed propaganda that both sides in the conflict produced in the form of declarations and counter-declarations, proclamations, petitions, pamphlets, newspapers, sermons, speeches, and ballads, but it is important to take into account its magnitude. Of special note, too, given the subject of this book, is the fact that the printed word was accompanied by an unprecedented explosion of visual images, the full impact of which has not to date been explored by historians of print culture. The battle of the printing presses that occurred through the 1640s and on through the 50s was not the first propaganda battle to accompany a military struggle (one may think of the French Wars of Religion), but, as one historian has put it, the 'English Civil War was the first European civil war to be fought within a society that possessed a well-established culture of the vernacular printed word.'72 Furthermore, with the lifting of censorship, the sluice-gates of controversy were opened, as is revealed by even the most casual glance at the list of some 20,000 printed books, pamphlets, broadsheets, and newsletters that the London publisher George Thomason systematically collected throughout the 1640s and 50s.73 As the first part of the straggle between King and Parliament progressed, King Charles established a network of printing presses in the main regions of the country (including London) but, following the move to Oxford, chiefly in that city.74 The Royalists, for all the disadvantages they faced, became remarkably adept at distribution,75 and of the two parties apparently had the greater control of the press.76 The first news-sheets appeared on the Parliament side in late 1642, but it was the King who was first to establish an official printed journal (Mercurius Aulicus) in January 1643,77 a widely published gazette edited first by Peter Heylin and then by Sir John Berkenhead (1616-1679), a former amanuensis to Archbishop Laud. The prime aims of Mercurius Aulicus seem to have been to advance the Royalist cause and the political and religious views of the King. While at one level, it was capable of printing material designed to insult individuals and Parliamentarians as a group, at a more serious level Aulicus 'relentlessly advocated the highest claims made for the King and his Prerogative,'78 and attempted to undermine the integrity of the Parliamentary coalition by portraying Parliament as (among other things) a 'forced assembly bent on rule by committee.'79 Accusations about the unrepresentative nature of Parliament were also common,80 while the alliance between Parliament and Scotland inevitably led as well to attacks on the Solemn League and Covenant. Aulicus not only advanced the ideal of the ecclesiastical state, staunchly supporting bishops,

the orthodox clergy, and the Book of Common Prayer, but defended the use of Catholic troops and the Queen's allegiance to Rome.81 Besides offering up-to-date and supposedly accurate reporting on the latest military intelligence, considerable energy was also devoted to countering the contents of the innnumerable periodical publications, pamphlets, and other works emanating from the King's enemies in London, with their sensational tales of Royalist atrocities and Parliamentary successes. Parliament, of course, fought back. During the run of Mercurius Aulicus, over twenty periodicals appeared in London, alongside numerous pamphlets, all devoted to discrediting Aulicus and the rest of the Royalist propaganda machine.82 Important among the Parliamentary publications were such newsbooks as Mercurius Civicus (the first illustrated journal), The Scottish Dove, and The Spie, but most important and influential of all was Mercurius Britanicus, which first appeared in September 1643 and was apparently founded to counter the no doubt damaging effects of Mercurius Aulicus^ Such newsbooks, together with innumerable Parliamentary pamphlets, attacked the accuracy of Royalist military intelligence, gave damaging case histories of notable Royalists, particularly certain Lords who had left London for Oxford, made allegations concerning Royalist atrocities, and, while bitterly assaulting the Queen for her Catholicism, portrayed the King 'as the tool of Laudian Popish conspiracy,'84 arguing that the Prelacy was 'but a cloak for Popery.'85 Royalists were drunkards and swearers who had no repect for the name of God and no respect for the Sabbath, while Parliamentarians saw themselves as sober and God-fearing men. Beneath the traded insults, charges, and counter-charges, some fundamental issues were, of course, at stake, as the pamphleteers were well aware: the nature of political authority and in particular the prerogative of the monarch, the privilege of Parliament, and the rights of the people. In addition were such matters as the questions of what constituted the most desirable ecclesiastical polity and (for Puritan Parliamentarians) how to institute religious reformation. Only by immersing oneself, I believe, in this paper war can one really grasp the implications behind the military conflict, and, at a more modest level, only by doing this can one fully understand the Civil War flags and their emblematic devices. In what follows I will endeavour to discuss some of the different categories into which the flag devices of the Civil War period can be divided. As will quickly become apparent, they cannot be read in isolation from the broader propaganda war of which they were a small but potent part. Royalist and Parliamentarian Flags On the whole, very few Royalist or Parliamentarian flags appear to have been frivolous or to have implied, as often seems the case with the earlier English tournament imprese, that the bearer was not someone engaged in a deeply serious business. However, the unknown Parliamentary officer who depicted on his cornet an armed horseman trampling Cupid and gave as his motto 'Adieu 1'amour, vive la guerre' does seem to have lacked high seriousness. Similarly, the insulting Royalist cornet depicting a naked man with sword in one hand and erect penis in the other is also uncharacteristically frivolous, his motto 'In utrumque paratus' (Prepared for either) being a gross intimation, as Thomas Blount suggests, that the bearer 'was ready to fight at either weapon' (sig L3b). Still in this category, but primarily designed to insult rather than offer humour, are a related group of Royalist cornets referring to cuckoldom in some way. Their primary intent appears to have been to taunt the Earl of Essex, commander of the Parliamentary army and well-known to have had one unfaithful wife, if not two.86 Sir Horatio Gary, for example, who switched to the Royalist side in June 1643, used a cornet with the motto 'Come out you cuckold,' the picture being a fox in a barrel, described by Richard Symonds in his notebook as 'a fox pulling ye roundhead by ye eares.'87 Caryl Molyneux, another Royalist, had the motto 'Ad quid exaltatis cornu' (To what do you exalt this horn?), the pictorial device showing the head of a deer supported by five hands. Again the allusion is probably to Essex, the deer's antlers being another allusion to cuckoldry, a

particularly apt one since Essex's crest was a stag's head.88 The five hands supporting the head allude to the Five Members (see below), a favourite object of Royalist hostility. Caryl Molyneux served as Lieutenant Colonel in the regiment commanded by his brother Richard. This latter also offered a personal insult to Essex. On his cornet he had two mottoes, 'Quid si refulsero' (What if I shine back) and 'Vae cornibus meis' (Alas for my horns). Accompanying the first motto was a picture of the sun. This is being obscured by a crescent moon to which the second motto is attached. As Blount points out, 'By the Sun surely was meant the King, and by the corniferous Cressant the Earle of Essex.'*9 Also Royalist and also intended as insults are two further cornet devices that introduce a familiar theme and tone in Royalist propaganda. Many Royalists believed that the Parliamentarians posed a threat to the social hierarchy. As a result, Royalists often assumed the stance of social superiority, of superior breeding, and of greater refinement.90 Indeed, as has already been noted, such an attitude of disdain towards the common people, together with the adoption of an aristocratic tone that mocked leaders of low birth, was a prime characteristic of the chief Royalist newspaper, Mercurius Aulicus.91 According to such a view, while 'all Nobles and Gentry' were for the King,92 those on the Parliamentary side were no better than 'Cattle as were never thought fit to die by the Sword.'93 But such views were not confined to the newsletters. They were a favourite theme in Royalist ballads, Alexander Brome's 'The Commons' (1645) being a typical example: And the scum of the land Are the men that command, And our slaves are become our masters.94 It was the widespread adoption of such attitudes that led John Hall in 1648 to attack the Royalists for their contempt of 'the Vulgar, which in their esteeme is so far inferior to themselves.'95 Two Royalist cornets vividly express the kind of attitude Hall had in mind. Sir John Berkeley, a colonel of Horse and Foot, took as his motto the words from Vergil (Eclogues 1.71) 'Barbaras has segetes' (Will some uncouth person possess this land? [literally: 'harvest']) and accompanied it with a pleasant landscape showing houses and cornfields being invaded by what Blount describes as 'beggerly people.'96 For Berkeley, the pastoral riches of England were threatened by a Parliamentary army that was no better than a mob of barbarians. Implicitly, too, Berkeley was alluding to a constant theme of Royalist propaganda—the threat to property created by the King's rebellious subjects. As the Royalist David Jenkins explained in his Lex Terrae (1647), 'Without the King and the Lawes, you will never have one hour of safety for your Persons, Wives, Children or Estates.'97 Intertwined with this is a broader and less explicit theme, suggestive of a sense of lost Arcadia or broken pastoral. Andrew Marvell's lines in his Nymph Complaining are a well-known expression of this sentiment: 'The wanton troopers riding by / Have shot my fawn and it must die, ...' Many poets of the time, Royalists in particular, evoked the Golden Age of Charles Fs reign prior to the wars. Margaret Cavendish was typical: All live with Plenty, full in every Store ... Their Lands are fertil, and their Barns are full, Orchards thick planted, from whence Fruit to pull: Of Cattel store feeding in Meadows green, Where Chrystal Brooks run every Field between; ...98 But with war, 'the Drum shall speak,' and

... the Glebe Land Shall unmanured and untilled stand. The plough shall be neglected, and the corn, By th'horse hoofe trampled, fade before full born Tis fit for sickle-Graziers sell away Their beasts, lest kept they prove the souldiers pay." Unlike the Clubmen (see below), who were primarily concerned with economic matters and the threat to property, such statements hint at more. Evocations of the good land have political overtones. It is not just the land that is threatened but an entire social and moral order. Were the world to be turned upside down, so fervent Royalists assumed, 'Fools, Clownes, and very dunghill things, / Shall act the parts, of Lords, and Kings, ...'10° Although Sir William Compton, who later became Governor of Banbury, had no picture on his cornet, like Sir John Berkeley he expressed more than mere social snobbishness in his motto, one based on a line from Horace's third Ode: 'Odi profanum vulgus et arceo' (I hate and stay distant from the common crowd).101 Such attitudes may have been difficult to refute in any direct way, but they may partly explain why the Parliamentarians were at such pains to present themselves in their propaganda as godly men, as Protestants fighting against Papists, and as defenders of King, country, and religious reformation. As will be seen below, this self-image is vigorously expressed on many Parliament flags. Another very straightforward category of emblematic flag device consists of those obviously composed as the expression of the bearer's personal intent or point of view (something by definition typical of the impresa, as noted above). The Royalist General of the Ordnance, Sir Ralph Hopton, for example, used the motto 'Et sacris compescuit ignibus ignes' (He extinguished fires with sacred fires). His picture of a gold cannon firing makes the point but links the righteous zeal of the device with the personal responsibilities of Hopton's command. Other officers achieved a somewhat different form of personal expression by incorporating some device from their heraldic arms (usually only the crest and not the arms themselves, as explained above) into the design of their flags. Sir William Constable, for example, a Colonel in the Parliament army and later Governor of Gloucester, used the motto 'Soies ferine' (Be steadfast) and accompanied it with a picture of clouds and a pair of heavenly hands from which hang a gold anchor suspended by its flukes. The device expresses both the dependence of Constable (and his men) upon heavenly aid, together with their hope of receiving it, the anchor being a traditional symbol of faith and hope (see Hebrews 6:19). At the same time, however, the anchor was also the heraldic badge of Constable's famous naval family.102 William Waller's flag provides a similar example. Waller, who commanded the Parliamentary armies in the West until the Self-Denying Ordinance of 1645, used the motto 'Fructus virtutis' (The fruit of virtue), accompanied by the picture of a walnut tree, on which hangs a blue shield with three gold fleurs-de-lis with a charge to note a first son (the shield of Charles Duke of Orleans). This derived from Waller's heraldic crest and is a proud allusion, suitable for a military leader, to the Battle of Agincourt at which an earlier Waller captured the Duke. The walnut tree from which hangs the trophy of the Duke's shield, is of course an heraldic pun on the Waller family name. Puns of one kind or another were not unusual. Another Parliamentary officer, a certain Captain St. George, a Frenchman, used a different type of personal device, though one incorporating a kind of pun. To accompany his motto, 'Soyez, mon dieu, ma garde et mon appuy' (My God, be my protector and help), he chose to show St. George on a white horse killing a dragon. The dragon, one assumes, represents the forces of evil, in this instance the foes of Parliament, and St. George, traditionally the symbol of English chivalric and military virtue, might be a natural appropriation for either of the warring parties. At a private level, of course, the device operates as a flattering reminder of its bearer's name. Captain Sparrow, another Parliamentary officer, depicted a gold sparrow and a rose, the one a pun on his name,

the other derived from his arms. A trifle more subtle perhaps was a certain Captain Blackwall, also on the Parliament side. His motto, 'Hie murus aheneus esto' (Let this wall be a bronze one), was accompanied by a picture of an open book inscribed 'Legis Evangelii' (Of the law of the Gospel). Surrounding the book is a black wall. Thus, the forces of Parliament are seen symbolically as the protectors of the holy word, but at the personal level that protection is seen as being offered by 'Black Wall' himself. Far more interesting than such witty (and not so witty) puns, so typical, it should be noted, of the earlier English tournament imprese, are those Civil War flag devices that sought to express the central political and religious attitudes of each respective warring faction. Very clear in this respect is the Royalist cornet preserved in St. Mary's Church, Bromsberrow (Gloucestershire), and mentioned earlier. It has the motto 'Religio protestantium leges angliae libertates parlamentorum' (The religion of the Protestants, the laws of England, the freedoms of parliaments). This motto, surrounded by laurel leaves to denote victory, uses a text derived from Charles Fs declaration to the Privy Council at Wellington on 19 September 1642. This was published as His Majestic's Declaration in Defence of the True Protestant Religion at Oxford and later reprinted at London on 13 June 1643. The text of the motto was particularly familiar among Royalists since it was used by the King on a number of gold and silver coins issued between 1642 and 1645. Apart from the possible implications of the references to 'leges Angliae,'103 such a motto may appear rather conciliatory in its reference to 'libertates parliamentorum.'104 Furthermore, the explicit espousal of 'Religio protestantium' is by implication a denial of the common charge made by the Parliamentarians that the Royalists were in the the service of papal interests. That charge was hardly a new one. On 3 May 1641, the opening complaint by Parliament in the Protestation Oath concerned 'the designs of the Priests and Jesuits, and other adherents to the See of Rome' who 'have of late been more boldly and frequently put in practice than formerly, to the undermining and danger of the true reformed Protestant religion in His Majesty's dominions.'105 The document concluded with a solemn 'promise, vow and protest to maintain and defend ... the true reformed Protestant religion expressed in the doctrine of the Church of England, against all Popery and popish innovation within this realm.'106 Understandably, Royalists attempted to subvert the anti-Royalist implications of such Parliamentary sentiments once hostilities began in earnest. Typically, the Royalists claimed such sentiments as their own. The words of 'Religio protestantium,' if used by a Royalist, thus say more than might at first appear. Matching the phraseology of such Royalist devices were numerous Parliament devices that retained a seemingly pro-monarchy stance. Their point of view, however, is fully in keeping with the widely-held idea that has already been noted above and that was so well expressed in the Parliamentary declaration of 27 May 1642 and in A Declaration of the Lords and Commons Assembled in Parliament (London, 17 October 1642), that the King had been led astray by 'wicked Councel,' assisted by 'papists, the prelatical and corrupt part of the Clergy, the delinquent Nobility, and Gentry, & by the confluence of some notable tray tors from beyond the seas, ... and of many desperate mercenary and ill affected persons from all parts of the Kingdome.' As one pamphleteer put it, 'All that beare Armes against the King are Rebells all, but we beare Arms for the King and the Parliament, therefore we are good subjects all.'107 In spite of later events, the signatories to the Solemn League and Covenant in 1643 also pledged themselves to 'preserve and defend the King's Majesty's personal authority.'108 In harmony with this view was the device of a certain Captain Fines, who, though on the Parliament side, used the motto 'Contra inimicos Caroli' ('Against the enemies of Charles') and depicted an armed arm and naked hand issuing from clouds and holding an unsheathed sword, the blade of which is inscribed 'Fiat Justitia' (Let justice be done). For his part, Lord Willoughby of Parham took the motto 'Non solem, sed nubilos' (Not the sun, but the clouds) and showed the sun enveloped by clouds as his way of suggesting that no fault lay with the King (the sun) but only with the evil ones who surrounded him (the clouds).109 In 1642 Parliament issued a medal depicting both Houses of Parliament and the motto 'Pro religione lege rege et parliamento' (For religion, law, the King, and Parliament), and the same motto was

later used by the Earl of Manchester on two medals issued in 1643.110 Versions of this provided a favourite formula for many Parliamentarian flags, although sometimes the 'rege' was omitted, deliberately perhaps, and sometimes such significant terms as 'grege' or 'republica' were added. The flag of George Wither, the poet, emblematist, and pamphleteer, is a good example. Wither's device, as mentioned earlier, was an unsheathed sword and gold pen (a reworking of the traditional 'ars et mars' topos) with the motto 'Pro rege lege grege' (For King, law, and people). Equally typical was the flag of a Major Whitby who depicted a red human heart circumscribed by the motto 'Pro deo pugnamus, pro rege oramus, pro patria moriamur' (For God we fight, for the King we pray, and for our country let us die). When Roland Laugharne's regiment was raised for service in Ireland in 1646, he as Colonel used the motto 'Millissimus,' but in a unique fashion the remaining cornets of the regiment then collectively made up a complete phrase: 'Millissimus,' 'Pro religione,' 'Pro patria,' 'Pro libertate,' 'Pro deo' (The thousandth for religion, country, liberty, God). Even more forthright than this was the motto 'Viva el rey y muera el mal govierno' (Long live the King but death to bad government). This was the motto used by Lord Ferdinando Fairfax, father of Sir Thomas Fairfax. Fairfax's device accompanying his motto showed a vertical sword impaling the Papal triple crown. Presumably, Fairfax believed, like many of his contemporaries, that the sources of the bad influences on Charles derived from Rome. Many other Civil War devices are just as partisan. In search of authority for their respective ideological positions, both sides knew when to appeal to Biblical authority. A favourite Royalist text was understandably 'Render unto Caesar,' based on the Biblical injunction to 'Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's: and unto God the things that are God's' (Matt 22:21). A cornet that Charles I is said to have employed, for example, depicted the royal arms, a crowned lion passant, and the motto 'Dieu et mon droit.' Above these, however, was a bloody hand pointing to the crown on top of the arms, and linked to this was a second motto, 'Give Caesar his due.'111 Robert Dormer, Earl of Carnarvon and a staunch Catholic and Royalist supporter, used the motto 'Reddite Caesari' (Render unto Caesar) to express the proper duty and obedience owed by a subject to the King. Accompanying this was a picture of five hands (representing the Five Members) reaching for a crown. An armed hand issues from a cloud and defends the crown, the expression no doubt of Dormer's belief in Charles I's divinely-appointed status and the alleged traitorous and ungodly motives of the Five Members. But Dormer was not the only officer to make use of this text. Sir Edward Widdrington, who commanded a reserve brigade of horse at Marston Moor and went into exile thereafter, struck a similar theme with his 'Deo et Caesari' (For God and Caesar), and some years later in 1648, the Duke of Hamilton's Horse in the Scottish army, in its campaign against Cromwell, used the Motto 'Date Caesari' (Give unto Caesar) on their cornets.112 Another Biblical text (Romans 13) much-used by the Royalist side and often referred to in the newsletters and pamphlets of the time concerned the obedience owed to those in authority, including rulers. One particular cornet, which had no picture, did not even bother to quote the text in question but presented merely the inscription 'Romans XIII.' As would have been well known at the time, the relevant chapter in St. Paul's epistle begins: 'Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.' The chapter, which continues with an exhortation that rulers be obeyed, then includes the following: 'Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour' (Romans 13:7). Equally familiar was the Royalist fondness for Psalm 105:15 ('Touch not mine anointed'). When Edmund Verney, son of the King's standard-bearer killed at Edgehill, wrote to his brother who had decided to support Parliament, it was to this text that he appealed: 'I beseech you consider that Majesty is sacred. God saith "Touch not myne anointed".'113 William Marshall for his emblematic frontispiece engraving for Robert Ashley's Da vid Persecuted (1647), a translation of// Davide Perseguitate, transferred the purport to unmistakable topical analogy by depicting King David with the head of Charles I. In the background, a shield with the text ' The Lord is my Shield' issues from heaven to defend the King

Introduction

from a hostile army. Below are the words 'Touch not my Anointed, / And do my Prophets no harme.'114 These were very familiar words to seventeenth-century ears and, not surprisingly, not only was Charles a type of the persecuted David in the eyes of his supporters, but (especially after his imprisonment and execution) he was often seen as a type of Christ.115 This was clearly so in the case of the Royalist officer whose cornet was captured by the Parliament forces at Marston Moor (2 July 1644). Carried in triumph to Westminster with all the other captured flags, the cornet used a variation of the text of Psalm 105: 'Nolite tangere christos meos' ('Touch not my Christ-like ones'). This was accompanied by the picture of a crown. Below that was a mitre, and to one side (somewhat unexpectedly) was a depiction of the interior of the Parliament building.116 Parliamentarians were, of course, just as adept at finding appropriate Biblical texts. Indeed, to a far greater degree than their Royalist opponents, Parliament's supporters extolled themselves as inspired by God in whose cause they were fighting. The New Model Army in particular actively promoted godliness within its ranks. Scripture study was encouraged, chaplains and unofficial lay persons preached frequently, praying aloud was common, and there were days of humiliations involving prayer and fasting.117 It was a custom for soldiers to carry Bibles in their breast pockets, but even before the creation of the New Model Army, Robert Ram's The Souldiers Catechisme: Composed for the Parliaments Army (London, 1644) was extremely popular and went through several editions. It used Biblical texts to justify the actions of the Parliamentary army. Better-known is the famous The Souldiers Pocket Bible (London, 1643), a collection of Biblical texts grouped under such headings as 'A Souldier must not doe wickedly,' 'A Souldier must pray before he goe to fight,' or 'A Souldier must crie unto God in his heart in the very instant of the battell.' In character with such indications of piety was the custom of the Parliamentary armies to engage in psalm-singing. Before and after the Battle of Marson Moor, for example, the Parliamentary army vigorously engaged in singing psalms, and, to cite one other example, there is a Royalist account of Second Newbury which states that 'the rebels came singing psalms.'118 Whereas Charles I had offered the potentially limited appeal of 'Give Caesar his due,' Parliament had a flag, according to one source, that was 'black, with one or five buff Bibles.' Its motto written beneath in gold letters was 'God with us,'119 and whereas the Royalist motto contained a clear reminder of the uncomfortable requirement of unquestioned obedience to secular authority, the Parliament flag offered a very different message. It implied that those who fought under it, fought for God's word,120 not for those who might have subverted that word for worldly ends. Furthermore, by adopting the familiar Protestant motto, derived from Romans 8:31 ('If God be for us, who can be against us?') and associated with the Protestant wars against Catholic armies on the Continent,121 there was an implied suggestion that the enemy was somehow Papist. This last was something that was apparently a central tenet of much Parliamentary propaganda and an idea frequently proclaimed by many Parliamentary flags, a few examples of which will be cited shortly. For this reason, although both sides in the conflict took pains to defend and propagate the religious reasons for fighting, it was the Parliamentarians who most frequently invoked heavenly authority or used Biblical quotations on their flags.122 Matching the sentiment of 'God with us,' for example, were Parliamentary flags with such mottoes as 'If God be with us, who can be against us?' 'Deus nobiscum' (God is with us), 'Deus pro nobis' (God is for us), 'Quis contra nos' (Who is against us?), 'Be ye very courageous for the Lord fighteth for us,' 'Christo duce et auspice vincam' (With Christ as guide and protector I will overcome), 'Dabitur victoria sanctis' (Victory will be given to the holy ones), 'Deo duce nil desperandum' (With God as [our] guide there is nothing to despair of), 'Deo duce vincimus' (With God as [our] guide we are overcoming), 'Nostra est causa dei' (Ours is God's cause), 'Through God we shall do valiantly.' Typical of the Parliamentary use of Biblical quotations was the cornet of a certain Captain Clark. Upon an orange-tawny background, Clark had depicted an army in retreat. Some of the weapons of the soldiers

have been thrown to the ground and their flag has been lowered as a sign of defeat. From clouds at one side issues an armed hand holding an unsheathed sword as if to strike the soldiers. As is very common in the iconography of the war flags, the arm from the clouds represents heavenly authority.123 All is then further made clear by the motto (The sword of the Lord and Gideon'), an allusion to Judges 7:18-20 and the story of Gideon's victory and the help he received from God.124 Somewhat similar in sentiment was the cornet of Captain John Norwood of London with its motto 'Coram Zerubbabel' (Before Zerubbabel). The accompanying picture was of a green mountain. From the clouds to one side emerge a naked arm and hand holding a hammer uplifted against the mountain. The allusion is to Zechariah 4:7 ('Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain'). The passage in question refers to the vision that Zerubbabel will rebuild the spiritual temple with God's aid in the face of all opposition. Of some interest, perhaps, is the fact that the Geneva Bible saw Zerubbabel as a prefiguration of Christ. Possibly this was in Captain Norwood's mind. Whatever the case, the device was certainly an expression of the presumed spiritual lightness of the Parliamentary cause and of the faith that it would prevail against any odds. Also citing Biblical authority and in this instance touching upon the central anti-episcopal and antipapist theme of much Parliamentary propaganda was the cornet of one Captain Ward. Against a red background was depicted King Charles I sitting upon a gold throne. He wears his crown and grasps his gold sceptre. To one side stands a bishop in a black square cap and lawn sleeves with his hand near the King's heart. Facing the King is a friar in a long brown garment and black hat. He has a long white walking staff in one hand. Another man, in a long brown robe and carrying a black staff, presents the King with a decker of beads from which hangs a cross. Advancing upon this group is an armed man in orange sash and with orange feathers in his helmet (one of Essex's men, no doubt). The armed man holds an unsheathed sword as if to strike the friar whom he grips by the shoulder. The motto is derived from Proverbs 25:5 and, comic-book fashion, issues from this soldier's mouth—'Eripiendo malos a conspectu regis stabilitur iustitiae solium' (By removing the wicked from the sight of the King, the throne of justice is established). As with some of the other cornets discussed earlier, it is not primarily the King who is at fault but those wicked and impious factions that surround him. Another group of Parliamentary flags, following the example of those employing buff Bibles on a black field, depict the Bible itself. The Royalist diurnal Mercurius Aulicus, as already mentioned, complained that this led simple folk to believe 'they fought in defence of the Word of God,' but, whatever the case, the depiction of a large book with metal clasps to signify the Bible was one of the commonest visual motifs used on the Parliamentary flags. Three brief examples will suffice to illustrate this feature. Heriot Washborne, for example, Captain of a troop of horse for the City of London, took as his motto 'My oath and sword maintaine this word.' He then defined this in pictorial terms by depicting a man in armour with his left arm akimbo and his hand on the hilt of his sword. In his right hand he holds a gold book (the Bible). For his part, a Captain Rainsborough took the motto 'Vincit veritas' (Truth conquers) and depicted a large book with gold clasps. Inscribed on its cover is 'Verbum Dei' (The word of God), and to the right an armed arm raises a curved sword that is flaming at its tip. To these one may add the somewhat unconventional device created by Sir Edward Peto, Governor of Warwick Castle and a Lieutenant Colonel in Essex's army. During the Royalist siege of Warwick Castle, Sir Edward hoisted on a flagstaff a shroud and a Bible (possibly the objects themselves rather than a flag depicting them). Though there was apparently no accompanying motto, his intention, according to one contemporary commentator, was to signify that he would occupy the shroud before he would betray the Bible.125 As one might expect, the religious conflicts of the war were expressed by each side in attacks upon the other, although again specifically religious concerns seem primarily the preoccupation of the Parliamentarians. Major Peter Pudsey, a Roman Catholic Royalist, took as his motto Tradentur in manus gladii' (They will be delivered to the sword). Accompanying this was a picture of a hand holding a raised

Introduction

unsheathed sword about to cut off the heads of a multi-headed beast, perhaps the Hydra, but more likely the many-headed beast of Revelation, both creatures being a common image in Royalist writings for what Blount refers to as the 'Sectaries of these times.'126 Equally negative was the Royalist Sir Marmaduke Rawdon's motto 'Mallem mori quam foedari' (I would prefer to die rather than be contaminated) and his picture of an ermine, symbol of royalty and an animal that according to common belief could not survive the pollution of its fur. Though the device may be read as a simple social insult, Blount felt that its intent was religious and involved an expression of dislike for the Covenant. Inevitably, the Parliamentary flags, while on the one hand expressing their faith in the revealed truth of the Bible, held little back in their attacks on all things papist, bishops, and anything smacking of Laudianism, with its emphasis on ceremonial, the sacraments, and the priesthood. It was, after all, during the Civil War period that episcopacy was abolished, the Archbishop of Canterbury (William Laud) executed, many bishops imprisoned, the use of the Book of Common Prayer forbidden, and the celebration of Christmas and Easter halted, while cathedrals were used as prisons, stables, and barracks, and churches of all kinds were frequently denuded of 'popish' tomb inscriptions, images in glass, stone, or wood, altar rails, altars, choir stalls, rood screens, brasses, crosses, prayerbooks, organs, clerical vestments, and even printed music. It was in this climate of opinion that on his cornet, Captain Sandberd, for example, showed a kneeling bishop threatened by a man in armour with a sword. The armed man is asking 'Visne episcopare' (Do you want to be a bishop?) and the bishop responds 'Nolo, Nolo, Nolo' (I refuse). Equally anti-episcopal was the cornet of Captain Gabriel Mills (or Miles) who used the motto 'Pro deo et patria' (For God and country) and depicted an armed man holding a sword in his right hand and a laurel wreath in his left. With his foot he signifies his views on episcopacy by trampling upon a bishop's mitre. Combining several such Parliamentary targets of attack was the flag of Samuel Kem, a minister 'sometime of Low Leyton in Essex' and chaplain to the Earl of Mulgrave.127 Kern's cornet shows a walled city, a favourite Protestant symbol. However, the city has a breach in its walls and this is defended by two men. One has a sword in one hand and a trowel in the other, a well-known emblematic device with Biblical origins that alludes to the Jews who both build and defend Jerusalem. The other man holds a sword and a book (presumably the Bible). From this latter's mouth, motto-like, ascend the words 'Let us arise up and build. God shall fight for us.' Those who attack the city (the New Jerusalem?) are a Jesuit priest in a black cloak, a cardinal in a scarlet cloak, a man in armour, and a bishop wearing a square black cap, one hand uplifted and the other holding a sword 'as if to denote vengeance,' according to one source.128 The first three of these attackers in some of the manuscript sources hold grappling hooks, and from the bishop issues the second motto: 'Let us down with it to the ground.' Another Parliamentary officer depicted his own version of the many-headed beast, this one wearing a variety of hats, including a bishop's mitre on one head and a square cap on another. A group of armed men, presumably intended to represent the Parliament forces, attack the beast with pikes. The motto for this device was 'Vincit agnus' (The Lamb conquers). In a very similar cornet with the motto 'Innocens vincet' (The innocent one conquers), the human figures are replaced by the Lamb of God with the banner of victory (a cross of St. George), the traditional symbol of the triumph over death won by Christ's martyrdom.129 For the Parliamentarians, the Royalists were in league with Antichrist, a common theme in Parliamentary propaganda,130 Antichrist being the Pope or anything papist in character, or even King Charles himself. Captain Williams, for example, took as his motto 'Antichrist must downe. If you support him, he will pall upon you' and depicted the Pope in his triple diadem seated on a throne. A soldier in a red sash (presumably a Royalist) holding a raised sword defends him against a man in the tall dark hat and clothes of a sober Parliamentarian. This latter attempts to pull the Pope from his throne. As The Souldiers Catechisme: Composed for The Parliaments Army (London, 1644) put it, even the Protestants fighting on the Royalist side were in effect maintaining 'the cause of Antichrist.' The same widely-read document also stated that the chief aims of the Parliamentary soldiers were 'the pulling down of Babylon, and rewarding

her as she hath served us, Psal. 137.8,' and 'the suppression of an Antichristian Prelacy, consisting of Archbishops, Bishops &c.'131 Equally anti-papist, and ironically employing a motto based on Psalm 68:1 ('Let God arise, let his enemies by scattered') that had appeared on a number of Royalist coins and on a Royalist medal struck about the year 1642,132 was an unknown Parliamentary officer's device: 'Exurgat deus dissipentur inimici.' For his picture he presented a naked hand issuing from a cloud (the hand of God) holding a balance and a pair of scales. In one scale a gold book (the Bible) weighs everything else down, and beside it appropriately is the inscription 'Vincat veritas' (Truth conquers). The other scale contains a rosary and various other papist objects. Pulling down on the balance is a friar dressed in a grey robe with beads and cross at his waist. The friar attempts unsuccessfully to pull the balance down in favour of this the lighter side. Other flags are less explicitly religious in their content but play upon the Royalist designation of the Parliamentarians as Roundheads. Charles Gerard, a leading Royalist commander, depicted a sphere on the cornet for his lifeguards, together with the motto 'At all that's round.' Another Royalist officer showed a die displaying only the odd numbers. His motto was 'Ut cunque quadratus' (Square in every way), expressing his dislike of all things round but affirming too his stability and 'evenness,' the die being always square and erect and resting on an even number. Very similar to this is another Royalist flag showing a hand casting a die and the motto 'Semper iactatus semper erectus' (Always tossed about [but] still upright). Perhaps mindful of such statements, Colonel Edward Cooke, who served on the Parliamentary side in Waller's army, took for his motto 'Muto quadrata rotundis' (I change square things into round things). His picture showed a man in armour holding a black square cap, the customary headgear of the Anglican cleric. With his sword the man chops off the corners of the cap, as menacing an image of religious reform as one could ask for. Similar to this was an unnamed Royalist officer's cornet captured at Marston Moor (2 July 1644). Its motto 'Fiat iustitia' (Let justice be done) was accompanied by the picture of a round head. On top of it was the letter 'P' (for 'Puritan'?) and from a cloud issued a hand with a sword, no doubt expressive of an assumed divine displeasure with all roundheads and Puritans.133 But the debate between square and round did not end there. On 8 April 1645, the Parliamentary Perfect Occurrences, commenting on the bloodthirstiness of the Royalist party (stories of atrocities committed by the other side were a familiar propagandist theme of both Royalists and Parliamentarians), described a Royalist flag with the motto 'Non quadratus' (Not square). The accompanying picture showed a Protestant's head, the ears cut off 'as if thus they hoped by their Army, to make the conditions of the Protestants in England.' Another distinctive subject for the Civil War flags was Parliament itself. One Royalist cornet, that of Sir John Culpepper, depicted the exterior of the Parliament building. Upon the apex of the roof were displayed two skulls, no doubt those of two traitors. His motto 'Ut extra sic intra' (As is the outside so is the inside) implied that there were traitors both without and within. This particular flag, captured at Cirencester in 1643, so disturbed the two Houses of Parliament that a special committee was set up to investigate the matter.134 One particular theme of Royalist opprobrium already mentioned above was directed at the so-called Five Members, the group of Parliamentarians (John Pym, John Hampden, Arthur Hesilrige, Denzil Holies, and William Strode) who had been accused prior to the war of being traitors. In the House of Lords, the Attorney General, Sir Edward Herbert, had on 3 January 1642 accused this group of High Treason. Allegedly they had 'traitorously endeavoured to subvert the fundamental laws and government of the Kingdom of England, to deprive the King of his regal power, and to place in subjects an arbitrary and tyrannical power over the lives, liberties and estates of His Majesties liege people.' They were alleged to have engaged in subversion of various kinds and to have 'invited and encouraged a foreign power [presumably this meant the Scots] to invade' the country.135 This Royalist propagandist ploy fell flat when Charles I, accompanied by soldiers, entered the Commons the next day demanding that the Speaker hand over the M.P.s he wished to carry off-a total breach of all accepted Parliamentary privi-

Introduction

lege.136 The Five Members, however, had fled at the last minute, thereby proving the King's violent intentions towards Parliament. London rose to the support of the threatened members, and a few days later the King left Whitehall to seek safety elsewhere. Lord Carnarvon's cornet showing five hands reaching for a crown has already been mentioned as expressive of the Royalist view that Parliament and the Five Members in particular, not only ignored the Biblical injunction 'Reddite Caesari' but were attempting to seize the power invested in the crown itself. Another cornet of Carnarvon's with a similar sentiment had the motto 'Quousque tandem abuteris patientia nostra' (For how long will you abuse our patience?).137 Its picture showed five dogs (the Five Members) attacking a lion (the King). An even larger dog has the label 'Kimbolton' (i.e. Lord Mandeville who had been accused along with the Five Members). Even more hostile was Colonel Robert(?) Hatton's cornet with the motto 'Cuiquam meritum' (To anyone [his] deserts). Its picture showed Fortune with her wheel. In her right hand she extends a crown towards five kneeling men, but in her left hand she holds five halters. To Hatton and his men, there was surely no doubt what the Five Members deserved. Against such Royalist attacks, Lord Grey of Groby showed his support for Parliament and the Parliamentary cause by depicting Parliament in session with various members seated and being addressed by another member in a purple robe standing before a table.138 Around the building, symbolically defending it, are a series of disembodied hands with drawn daggers. Grey's motto to accompany this was 'Per bellum ad pacem' (Through war to peace). Other Parliamentary cornets in more general terms refer to the supremacy of law, 'Pro lege et grege' being a favourite motto with its implied denial of Stuart absolutism and divine right. Instead, what is stressed is an alternative belief in law and the rights of the commons. As in such important declarations as the Petition of Right (1628), a document intended to clarify and effect an acceptable contract between King and people, and the Act for the Abolition of the Court of Star Chamber (5 July 1641), subsequent attempts by the Parliament side to discuss and defend what is perceived as desirable limitations upon royal prerogative (especially in such matters as arbitrary imprisonment and taxation) often refer to Magna Carta.139 It is hardly surprising, therefore, to come across two Parliamentary flags alluding to the Great Charter that was so regularly interpreted as a key part of the foundation of inherited common rights. The first example was displayed on the green cornet of Captain Hooker. His motto was 'Preserva legem domine' (Safeguard the law, oh Lord), and this was accompanied by the picture of a parchment scroll with a red seal. Lest there should be any doubt, the device is inscribed 'Magna Charta.' The other example was displayed on the orange-tawny cornet of a Frenchman by the name of Dewit, possibly the notorious turncoat Francis Dewit. His motto was 'Sustentit deus' (God upholds), and the accompanying picture showed an armed man holding a sword in one hand and a book (the Bible) in the other. As such, the device is a quintessential Parliamentary affair, but in this instance the concept is further enlarged by the presence of a parchment (the Magna Carta) that hangs from his arm. Other Flags of the Civil War Era The above examples illustrate some of the principal categories into which the Royalist and Parliamentary Civil War flag devices may be divided, together with some of the principal propaganda statements they seem designed to make. However, as the entry under 'Party' for each item in the Index reveals, 'King' and 'Parliament' were not the only factions that created emblematic flag devices during the Civil War era. The following categories may also claim their place:

a) English Flags for the Bishops' Wars Strictly speaking, the period of the so-called Bishops' Wars (see Glossary) preceded the outbreak of the Civil Wars. Nonetheless, because one manuscript source (MS Rawlinson D942) and the eighteenth-century collection of flag devices printed by Jonathan Cole both included flags designed for the military expedition against the Scots in 1640 (the 2nd Bishops' War), I have decided to index the two English flags that we know about. They are indexed as being of the King's 'Party,' although the sources list the flags among those of Parliament. In 1640, however, there was as yet no Parliamentary army. The army that marched north to face the invading Scottish army and to try and enforce episcopacy, the use of a new prayer book fashioned along Anglican lines, and various Laudian reforms was in effect the King's, Parliament having been dissolved after refusing to vote the necessary funds. By what may be only coincidence, both the flag devices we know about depict green trees, flourishing and enduring in spite of the winds that attack them. One with the motto 'Agitata viresco' (Though shaken I flourish) was that of Sir Nicholas Byron, uncle of the seven brothers who later fought on the King's side in the Civil Wars. The other belonged to one Radcliffe and bore the motto 'Sentio oppositus' (Facing it, I endure). Both seem to suggest that Charles Fs army, though forced to go against the Scots in fairly difficult circumstances, will nonetheless prevail. At the same time, perhaps, a similar point is being made concerning the ideological battle that had led to the military conflict. The new ideas of Charles I and his advisors will prevail. At yet another level, the emblematic devices may be read as the personal statements of the respective officers (and by implication the soldiers in their troops). As fighting men, we may be buffeted but we will not be defeated. b) English Flags for Ireland: A second military conflict that began prior to 1642 was that which occurred in Ireland. At the beginning of November 1641, Parliament learned of the rebellion of the Irish Catholics in Ireland and quickly set about raising an army to suppress the dissension out of a general fear of an international popish conspiracy and fear of an Irish invasion of England that might be assisted by a foreign Catholic power. English Protestants were mindful too of the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre of French Hugenots, the history of the Inquisition in Europe, and 'Queen Maries fires' in Tudor times.140 Retribution for the thousands of English settlers who were said to have been slain was also a key motive. Information concerning the flag devices of about sixteen military units raised in 1641 and 1642 for service in Ireland is known. One entire cavalry regiment, that of Lord Inchiquin (Murrough O'Brien), employed a varying number of gold harps upon a red field for each individual troop. Their common motto was 'Concordes resonem da deus alme sonos' (Grant, O kindly God, that I may send forth harmonious sounds). A more inventive example involved a rather different use of the heraldic harp of Ireland. Captain Douglas Trenchard for his troop of horse used the motto 'Fides temerata coegit' (Faith that has been defiled constrains), and upon a blue field he had depicted a gold harp with all its strings broken, an allusion, we may assume, to the broken faith with England and the discordant nature of rebellion. Rumours concerning atrocities committed by the Irish rebels flourished at the time the English army was being raised, and the various horrifying stories were given currency early in 1642 in The Teares of Ireland... illustrated by Pictures, a lurid piece of inflammatory propaganda by James Cranford, a Presbyterian and violent anti-Catholic. His work contained a number of gruesome illustrations that can only have served further to fuel the flames of hatred towards the

Introduction Irish rebels. In character with this was the flag device of John Niarne, a Scottish major, who used the motto 'Crudella vindicat aether' (Heaven avenges cruelty) and depicted a naked kneeling woman being slaughtered by a man (presumably an Irish rebel) with a sword.141 While not referring specifically to alleged atrocities, other flags also made direct references to the campaign In Ireland for which they had been created. One officer, for example, depicted a green island from which numerous spouts of blood were flowing. His somewhat pedestrian motto was 'Hibernia sanguine stillat' (Ireland is dripping with blood). Sir William Sellenger (St. Leger), commander of the Province of Munster, used the motto 'In tanto sed non in toto' (In so much but not in all) and, employing the same kind of symbolism used for the tree devices in the 2nd Bishops' War, depicted a tree that had been cut down, except for one green sprout. Standing beside the tree holding an ax or sickle was a skeleton (Death). A final example that may be cited here was the flag of the third son of the Earl of Salisbury. This was in the nature of a threat, designed to intimidate any rebellious Irish who saw it, for it depicted a man hanging on the gallows and used the motto 'He is a rebel and deserves it.'142

c) Flags for the Irish Catholic Confederacy Following the outbreak of fighting in England at the beginning of the Civil Wars, and following the signed agreement for a 'Cessation' of armed conflict in Ireland in September 1643, much of the army in Ireland that had fought against the rebels was transported to England to reinforce the Royalist army, though on arrival many officers and their men went over to the Parliament side. In Ireland itself the Irish Catholic Confederacy had been formed at Kilkenny in late 1642 as an alternative government which had then negotiated with Charles I in Oxford. Although the Confederacy did not send many soldiers to England, it is known that two thousand that had been raised in Ulster by the Earl of Antrim were sent to the Isles of Scotland during the summer of 1644. These men joined forces with the Marquis of Montrose to fight on behalf of the King against the Covenanters. It was possibly for the Earl of Antrim's Confederacy force that designs for a number of Catholic Confederacy ensigns were drawn up. That these were perhaps only designs may be deduced from the manuscript descriptions of the flags in Father Luke Wadding's papers where three of the flags are given alternate designs as though the final choice had not yet been made. However, it may be that after Wapping had seen the designs, the flags were then made. Whatever the case, their symbolism was considered particularly heinous and threatening (no doubt because of their explicitly Catholic content), and descriptions of them were published as tho to 5 October 1644). This included for the benefit of its pro-Parliament and pro-Protestant readers the text of the Oath of Association 'entred into by the Rebells and Catholike Army in Ireland,' with its promise of 'the free exercise of the Romane Catholike Faith, and Religion.' It further explained that the flag descriptions had been included to show 'the depth of their [the Confederacy's] designe of fighting onely for the Roman Catholike Cause.' More neutral in tone was another contemporary description, provided, as already mentioned, by Thomas Blount (himself significantly a Catholic) in the 1655 edition of The An of Making Devises}41" Blount's source was probably The True Informer. Though he ignores the matter of the canton and offers only ten descriptions, Blount's description is of some importance since it refers to the flags as cornets (not ensigns) and states that they had been 'taken from the Irish Rebels in the late warres,' thereby implying that the designs Father Wadding had seen were later used. Each of the Confederacy ensigr dexter

corner (i.e. upper left to the viewer) a canton containing a saltire gules (red cross of Ireland) in a field or (gold). Below this were the words 'Vivat Carolus Rex' (Long Live King Charles) and an imperial crown above the letters 'CR' (for 'Carolus Rex').144 According to Father Wadding's description, there were designs for eight flags in all. Each design had a different field tincture (white and spotted with blood, green, gold, blood-red, blue, scarlet, white, purple), and each had a different motto and pictorial device. For three of the flags, Wadding listed alternate mottoes and pictures, so in all there was a total of eleven designs. The True Informer, however, listed all these eleven designs, together with a twelfth description not included by Wadding.145 The emblematic devices for these twelve flags reveal the obvious intention of proclaiming an allegiance to the Catholic faith. Thus, we find images such as a crucifix, St. Peter, a chalice and host, the Virgin and Child, and Christ delivering the Fathers from Limbo. All of these, whether because they were images of sacred matters or because they were expressive of certain beliefs, were likely to be offensive to Protestants and Parliamentarians, particularly those with strong Puritan sensibilities. Even the motto on one flag, 'In nomine Jesu omne genu flectetur' (At the name of Jesus every knee is bowed) was a challenge. As Father Wadding pointed out in his comments on this flag, kneeling or genuflecting or inclining the head to reverence the name of Jesus had been forbidden by act of Parliament.146 Lest one think that such challenges were perhaps unconscious on the part of the Confederates, one flag may give pause for thought. It showed an armed man setting fire to a copy of Calvin's Institutes and used the motto 'Sic pereunt haereses' (Thus heresies perish). d) Flags of the Scottish Royalists Between 1644 and 1647, the Scottish government was challenged by a Royalist force, led principally by the Marquis of Montrose, in effect a kind of monarchist and Catholic rebellion against a staunchly Protestant regime. The Scottish Royalists had no regular army or capital city, and, apart from some initial and brilliant success, were ultimately doomed to failure. Joined by the Earl of Antrim's three Irish regiments in 1644, the Scottish Royalist army nonetheless had dramatic victories at Tippermuir (1644), Aberdeen (13 September 1644), Inverlochy (1-2 February 1645), Dundee (4 April 1645), Auldearn (19 May 1645), Alford (2 July 1645), and Kilsyth (15 August 1645). However, Montrose's army was decisively defeated by David Leslie and the Covenanter army at Philiphaugh (13 September 1645). Later, in 1650 Montrose was again defeated by Covenanter troops, this time at Carbisdale (17 April). Descriptions of a small number of Scottish Royalist flags have survived. George Gordon, Marquis of Huntly and Colonel of the Strathbogie regiment of foot, employed as company ensign the heraldic red lion rampant of Scotland crowned in gold. Above was the motto 'For God, the King, and aganist all traittouris,' and below was a second motto 'God save the King.' To either side of the crown, in a manner reminiscent of the Irish Confederacy flags, were the letters 'CR' (Carolus Rex).147 The message to the Scottish government forces was above all a reminder that Charles was their king. In opposing him, they were therefore the traitors. A description by Thomas Blount of the troop cornet for Montrose's Lifeguard of Horse during the pre-Philipaugh campaign has also survived. On a blue field was depicted a gold laurel wreath, representing victory, and the motto 'Magis aut excidam ausis' (Or I shall fall through great ventures).148 As Blount explained, the bearer was intimating 'that he would either atchieve some great designe, or fall in the Attempt.' Somewhat more inventive, perhaps, were two cornets and an ensign brought by Montrose when he landed in the Orkneys in 1650 to begin his last abortive campaign against the Scots. According to Sir James Balfour and Blount, Montrose's cornet of horse depicted on a black field

xlviii

Introduction three pairs of hands folded in each other. On each side of them issuing from a cloud were three naked arms and hands holding unsheathed swords. The motto 'Quos pietas virtus et honor fecit amicos' (Those whom godliness, virtue, and honour have made friends) was an obvious expression of loyalty to the King's cause and (typical of so many flags of the period) an expression of a belief in the Tightness of the bearer's cause, the implication being that the enemy (the army of the Scottish government) is neither godly nor virtuous in opposing King Charles II.149 Also dating from the 1650 campaign and described by both Balfour and Blount is another cornet with the motto 'Nil medium' (Nothing in between). Upon a white damask field was depicted a lion rampant upon a rock.150 Below the rock was a river and on the other side of the river was another rock. Given the desperate nature of the Scottish Royalist cause in 1650, the device is an appropriate one, for there was no longer any place for compromise, something Montrose was to discover to his cost when he was captured and executed. As a final example, there is the ensign of the King's regiment of foot. As described by Balfour, this was of black taffeta. In the centre was the bleeding severed head of man, a clear allusion to the recently beheaded Charles I. Blount adds the detail of 'a Hand and Sword issuing from a Cloud.'151 This was accompanied by the motto 'Deo et victricibus armis' (With God and victorious arms).

(e) Flags of the Scottish Armies (Covenant) In the Index which follows this introduction, the flags belonging to the Scottish armies are for convenience assigned the term 'Covenant' within the data field-entry for 'Party.' It should be understood, however, that 'Covenant' for the purposes of the Index signifies the various forces raised at different times by the Scottish government and not the forces of mere political or religious factions. Various Scottish armies fought in the 1639 and 1640-41 campaigns against Charles I, the campaign against the Irish rebels in Ulster in 1642-43, the first Civil War (the Scots invaded England in January 1644 on the side of Parliament), the second Civil War, which ended for the Scots so disastrously when they fought against Parliament at Preston in 1648, the conflict that ended with the defeat of the Scots at Dunbar in 1650, and the final invasion of England in 1651 in support of Charles II that ended in defeat at Worcester. Not a great deal is known about the flags used by the Scottish armies prior to the defeats of 1648 and 1650 when, as already noted, a very large number of ensigns of foot, together with a few cornets of horse, were captured and descriptions of them recorded when they arrived in London. However, for the most part Scottish flags, and more specifically ensigns of foot (cornets were more varied), frequently employed versions of the national emblem, the saltire or St Andrew's Cross, with the now familiar scheme of white saltire on blue field. Accompanying the saltire was usually a motto, of which a number of variations are known: 'For Christ's Croun and Couenant' (1639),152 'For Religioun, the Covenant, and the Countrie' (1639),153 'For God, the King, Religion, and the Covenant' (1639),154 'Couenant for Religion, Croune, and Country' (1640), and 'For Religion, Country, King, and Covenant' (1644). By 1648 there was increasing uniformity, and because of the Scottish alliance with the Royalist cause greater use of the words 'King' and 'Kingdoms.' 'Covenant for Religion, King, and Kingdomes' was widely used, although one also finds examples of 'Covenant for Religion, Crown, and Kingdoms.' However, in 1650 the Scottish parliament ordered that the mottoes should be the same: 'Covenant for Religion, King, and Kingdoms.'155 By 1648 the use of additional mottoes and pictorial devices was common on Scottish ensigns of foot as a method (along with different field and saltire tinctures) of differentiating one regiment from another.156 Marks of difference to distinguish one unit from another within the same regiment were also used. Usually the additional mottoes and devices were derived from the

Colonel's crest, and as such are heraldic rather than emblematic in their symbolism. Lord Home's Regiment of Foot in 1648, for example, added the motto Trev to the ende' above a blue and white heraldic wreath on which was a white lion's head erased, tongued red with a gold crown. This was the Home crest and motto. The device for the Colonel's ensign of Lord Cranston's Regiment of Foot was a crane holding up a stone with its right foot. This was a very common emblem in emblem books, but in this instance was probably derived from an heraldic source, the Cranston crest, although it should be noted that the motto 'Vigilando' appears to differ from the Cranston motto 'Thou shalt want ere I want.' Another example of a device that appears as if it has been taken from an emblem book is that of the stag couchant beneath a green tree with gold acorns. The accompanying motto is 'Sub umbra profuge' (Flee beneath the shade). However, the stag is placed upon a silver and red heraldic wreath. This, as it turns out, is the crest of James Elphinstone (Lord Coupar). A little more freedom is apparent in the cornets of horse. The Duke of Hamilton's 'Date Caesari' with an accompanying gold crown has already been mentioned. Even so, most of the known cornet mottoes and devices still appear to derive from their bearers' armorial crests. The cornet captured at Dunbar with the device of a hand emerging from a cloud brandishing a raised sword and with the motto 'Nee timide nee timere' (Neither rashly nor timidly), for example, appears to be derived from the Forbes' crest. Similarly the double-headed black phoenix with the motto 'I byd my tyme' is from Lord Loudon's crest. Possibly, the cornet captured at Dunbar, showing a hand holding a gold sword encircled by a gold laurel wreath that is accompanied by the motto 'Actione et virtute' (Through deeds of courage) is an emblem invented for the 1650 campaign, but one suspects not. Like many of the other Scottish devices with heraldic origins, however, it may be interpreted emblematically, and it was clearly fitting for the purpose to which it was put, though it makes no specific statement about the religious and political concerns of the time. (f) Clubmen and Fifth Monarchist Flags During the Civil Wars, the term 'Clubmen' was generally applied to certain groups of armed resisters who opposed the military authority of both Royalist and Parliament sides. Some Clubmen, however, did tend to favour one side rather than the other.157 Such a group were the 2000 or so pro-Royalist Clubmen in Dorset who were attacked on Hambledon Hill (Dorset) in August 1645 by the New Model Army. The engagement, during which the Clubmen were quickly put to flight, was described in detail by Joshua Sprigge in his chronicle of the campaigns of the New Model Army in its first year, Anglia Rediviva; Englands Recovery (London, 1647). During the battle, Sprigge recounts, 'There was taken about 12 Colours, the Motto of one of them was thus: (If you offer to plunder or take our cattel, Be assured we will bid you battel.) In others of them they had sentences of Scripture, profanely applied by their Malignant Priests, who were the principal stirrers up of the people to these tumultuous assemblies.'158 As far as I know, this is the only record of Clubmen flags. That described in such hostile terms by Sprigge clearly states a point of view that may today elicit some sympathy. Its expression of anger is directed at the fashion in which whole rural areas in England had in effect been plundered by both Royalist and Parliament armies to feed, quarter, and equip their soldiers and horses as they moved through the countryside. Both the wages and rations of soldiers were inadequate to prevent hunger and the consequent temptation to plunder whatever was at hand. Armies quartered in towns and villages along their route obliged householders to provide accommodation and food. Householders were then either paid directly or given a certificate that could be redeemed by the army paymaster.

Introduction Understandably, the system often broke down or was subject to abuse, and in such cases the citizens were the chief victims. To all this must be added other constant irritations to the predominantly rural population, such as the trampling of crops, the cutting down of timber, the poaching of game, the requisition of horses, and (worst of all) outbreaks of disease, this last the legacy of a large body of men living close together in unsanitary conditions. Especially horrifying was the situation of townspeople caught up in the siege of a fortified town. Not only might they have to suffer privation and the effects of artillery bombardment, but if the siege was ended by storm rather than surrender, no one would be safe from the violence of the victorious soldiers. In addition to the unique record of Clubmen flags is that of the Fifth Monarchist 'War-flag' captured by one of Cromwell's troops of horse at Mile End on 9 April 1657. Fifth Monarchists, an extremist Puritan sect that developed in the 1650s, believed in the imminence of what they referred to as the Fifth Monarchy, that of King Jesus, in fulfilment of a prophecy in Daniel 2:44.159 A small number of Fifth Monarchists, hostile to Cromwell and identifying him with the Beast of the Book of Revelation, advocated violence to hasten the new rule of King Jesus. Thomas Venner was such a person, and in 1657 led an armed rising against Cromwell. This failed and Venner was imprisoned. The sole captured flag that we know about belonged to one of Venner's officers and had the motto 'Who shall rouse him up?' This was accompanied by the picture of a lion couchant with the inscription 'Lion of the tribe of Judah.' Both the motto and the device of the lion derive from the Biblical text of Jacob's words to his chosen son Judah when he tells him what will befall him 'in the last days': 'Judah is a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion: who shall rouse him up?' (Genesis 49:9). Judah ('Judas') is listed in the New Testament as one of the ancestors of Jesus. For the Fifth Monarchists, then, the allusion to the lion of Judah is a reference to Christ the King soon to reign over his elect.

The flags of the English Civil War era and their mottoes and emblematic devices are very diverse, as I hope I have shown in this brief survey. Their prime function was a purely military one, but their bearers understood that they were also an effective and public medium for the expression of political, religious, and personal sentiments and attitudes. As such, they were instruments of propaganda at a time when the full possibilities of widely-distributed printed propaganda were being discovered in England for the first time. The flags were exposed both before the soldiers who served under them and before the many noncombatants throughout Britain who observed them or read about them. Given the interest they provoked, it would seem that they may have been a fairly potent instrument of propaganda. In my view, they are therefore properly to be seen as related to the immense paper-based struggle to influence the citizens of England, Scotland, and Ireland to espouse and retain their faith in one cause or another. At the same time, the raison d'etre for this volume of the Index Emblematicus stems from the fact that the large number of flags of the Civil War period which employed emblematic devices represents an extremely important manifestation of emblematic art, one not hitherto studied. Thomas Blount was indeed correct in pointing out that the gentlemanly art of device-making, once so important to participants at English tournaments in the sixteeth and early seventeenth centuries, enjoyed a resurgence during sad times. To follow the later history of this resurgence would ultimately take one into the eighteenth century and across the Atlantic to the flags and paper money of the revolutionary forces that fought against British, but that further flowering of emblematic art within the material culture of a quite different society belongs in some future volume of the Index Emblematicus.160

A NOTE ON THE FLAG DESCRIPTIONS AND INDEXES161 The Flag Descriptions As in previous volumes of the Index Emblematicus, this volume offers facsimiles of the indexed items, though where necessary the facsimile may be in a slightly reduced or enlarged scale. This volume also includes material for which no facsimile is included. Occasionally, this is due to the fact that the original cannot be photographed satisfactorily. In other instances, only a verbal description has come down to us. Accompanying those facsimiles that are included and accompanying every item that is listed are a series of up to eleven data fields. I list them here in the sequence used for each entry: 1. Field & Fringe: Using the terminology appropriate to vexillology, this provides the main background colour(s) of the flag and the colour of any surrounding fringe. To assist the user of the Index, a glossary of terms from heraldry and vexillology has been included. 2. Party: By 'Party' is meant the political faction for which the flag was created (e.g. Parliament, King, Covenant, Irish Catholic Confederacy, etc). 3. Date: This provides the date, usually only approximate, when the flag was used. 4. Identifying Number: Because the material presented here has come from many different sources, it has been organized for the purposes of the volume in alphabetical order according to motto. However, since a number of flags employed similar mottoes, each item has been assigned a unique number. 5. Motto: The motto is given in the form and spelling in which it appears in its source. Where there are several sources for the same item, the form of the motto follows that employed in the accompanying facsimile. In every case, the language of the motto is indicated. Wherever a flag had no motto, it is listed in the alphabetical sequence under 'No Motto.' Accompanying any non-English motto, as in previous volumes, is a translation into English. 6. Picture: The description of each picture follows the principles set out in previous volumes of the Index Emblematicus. The amount of description is determined by what is required to render accessible the key motifs in the picture. Attention is concentrated upon the symbolically relevant motifs, and less attention is paid to background, foreground, and other illustrative material, unless such material demonstrably adds to the significance of the central motif or motif cluster. The purpose of the brief description of the picture is, then, to provide the necessary minimum information upon which the Index is based. Where accompanying mottoes permit one to identify the motifs in the pictures, this is done. Thus, for entry 0452.0, the motto 'Utraque Pallade' permits us to identify the woman with the spear in the picture as the goddess Pallas.

Introduction

Since the picture descriptions are essentially identifications of motifs, the technical vocabulary of heraldry and vexillology has been used when describing certain motifs because the use of such technical terminology provides greater clarity and differentiation of information. As already mentioned, to assist the user of the Index, a glossary of terms from heraldry and vexillology has been included. Because all the items indexed in this volume are flags, an important convention of vexillology (and heraldry) has been followed in the picture descriptions. Whereas for art historians, the terms 'left' and 'right' normally describe the positioning of objects and figures from the point of view of the viewer looking at a picture, in vexillology (and heraldry) this is not so. The right side (dexter) or left side (sinister) are right and left, not from the viewer's point of view, but from that of the imaginary person facing the viewer and holding a flag or shield. This convention of vexillological and heraldic description has been used throughout. Since for most entries there is an accompanying picture, it is hoped that users unfamiliar with vexillology and heraldry will not be unduly confused. 7. Sources: In many instances more than one source exists for our knowledge about a flag. These are all listed. The first source listed is that which has been used for any accompanying facsimile. 8. Bearer: Where known, the name of the officer to whom the flag belonged is given. He is referred to as the 'bearer' since in most instances he must be credited with the invention of the flag device, which, it can often be assumed, represents his own particular point of view, intent, or comment. However, it should be understood that the flag was actually carried by a lesser officer, a cornet for cavalry flags (cornets) or an ensign for the flags (ensigns) of companies of foot. 9. Rank: Where possible the rank of the Bearer is given. Where his rank changed, that is indicated. If it is known that he was of a certain rank when the flag was used, that rank is given, even though the bearer may have attained a higher rank later. 10. Biography: Where information is available, a brief biography of the Bearer is provided. In a number of instances this helps in interpreting the point of view or intent expressed in his emblematic flag device. 11. Comments: This field provides various kinds of information. It may, for example, comment on any differences in the information provided by different sources. It may quote comments made in the sources about the flag, or it may refer to other related flag devices or other flags used by the same Bearer.

Treatment of Key Words in the Indexes The indexes at the rear of this volume are based on key words, which are specially flagged in the main body of the text where the facsimiles and flag descriptions are presented. As in the earlier volumes of the

English Emblem Tradition

liii

Index Emblematicus, the key words in foreign languages are indexed separately, as well as in English translation. All key words are modernized and lemmatized so as to circumvent the problems of morphology, inflectional endings, and conjugated forms, as well as the vagaries in spelling, which are encountered everywhere in the vernacular languages of the seventeenth century. Before the key words were sorted into indexes, a certain amount of pre-editing was required. Inflected and conjugated word forms, which pose problems for those creating indexes and concordances, were subjected to a process of lemmatization that reduced each key word to its basic form. In the case of nouns the nominative singular is used unless the noun only exists in the plural form. Verbs are cited in the infinitive in all European languages with the exception of Latin where convention requires the use of the first-person singular of the present tense. Adjectives, irrespective of the gender of accompanying nominal forms, are reduced to nominative masculine singular. In this way, the Index provides larger groupings of words that belong together semantically as variations of the same root but that would otherwise have been scattered throughout the alphabetical index. Capitalization can on occasion raise problems of interpretation. Some abstract nouns can refer either to a concept or to a personification of that concept, e.g., fame and Fame, victory and Victory, virtue and Virtue. Usually the presence of the allegorical figure in the picture is sufficient grounds for capitalizing the noun in question. However, there are borderline cases. The word 'king' has not been capitalized, even though we know that King Charles I or II is being referred to. Similarly the word 'Covenant' has also not been capitalized, even though a specific covenant is being referred to. Another complication is presented by the homograph 'arms' to denote either weapons or coat-armour. The solution to this difficulty that has been established by previous editors of the Index Emblematicus is to list the second meaning (coat-armour) as 'armsl.' All mottoes in foreign languages are reproduced in the orthography employed in the source that provided the facsimile, but key words deriving from them are not only lemmatized, as explained above, but are given modern orthography in the indexes. This means, for example, that the Latin consonantal T and 'u' are replaced by 'j' and V where appropriate. As also mentioned, mottoes in foreign languages have been translated into English. As far as possible, where synonyms are available and often reveal stylistic or syntactic differences, the same English word has been used to prevent the reader from unnecessary searching.

The Concordances and Indexes The concordances and indexes that make up the Index Emblematicus provide systematic access to a large and diffuse body of information. The purpose is identification rather than interpretation, so the motifs in the pictures, for example, are identified and described neutrally, and not interpreted. Thus, in item 0111.0 the picture description contains the following statement: 'Cloud at top centre from which issues a naked hand holding balance and pair of scales.' No interpretation is given, although the cloud could be said to represent Heaven, the hand to be that of God, and the balance and scales those of Justice. Whereas, strictly speaking, an index lists single words with no context whatsoever, a concordance cites the key words in their natural contexts, no matter how delimited. The disadvantage of listing single words is that the user is forced to return to the original text in order to determine whether the term listed is the one sought. Concordances that cite the natural context frequently enable the user to determine immediately whether or not this is the usage required. However, the shorter the context supplied, the less valuable it is. The indexes in this volume include the natural context for the key word being indexed. The context is limited in length in the case of the Picture Index but should be sufficient for the user to establish

liv

Introduction

whether the key word is the one sought. In the case of other indexes (Mottoes, Translations of Mottoes, Bearers), the entire context (i.e. Motto, Translation, full Bearer Name) has been provided. In addition to the indexes of key words, there are also alphabetical lists of mottoes and lists of flag devices according to party or political allegiance. The user should also note that the indexes for key words contain separate indexes for proper names. There is also a separate index for verbal inscriptions contained in the pictures.

How to Use the Indexes The Indexes of the Index Emblematicus are alphabetical listings, not classified groupings as is the case with the Icon Class. In order to obtain the maximum information available in any concordance or index, the user must always be prepared to make a list of synonyms, and also of related words. Whereas there may in fact only be one word for the bird called eagle, the user must look under 'pig,' 'piglet,' 'sow,' and 'swine' for verbal references to the pig. The user should also remember that abstract nouns may also be used as personifications; these appear in upper case in the Proper Noun Indexes.

NOTES 1. For convenience, I have used this last term throughout this book. 2. The Art of Making Devises (1646), translated into English from Henri Estienne's L'art de faire les devises (Paris, 1645) by Thomas Blount, sig A4a. 3. Although Markham's The Sovldiers Accidence was written long before the Civil Wars and first printed in 1625, many of the statements it makes concerning ensigns and cornets are applicable to the 1640s, as will be seen below. The edition cited here is that of 1635. Markham's point about not using coat armour for a battle flag is endorsed by Thomas Venn in his Military & Maritime Discipline (London, 1672), p 178. 4. Military Observations, Or the Tacticks Put into Practice (London, 1672), p 182. 5. The following are typical: Sir William Courtney (red and gold), Sir Faithful Fortescue (blue and white), Sir Sigismund Zinzan (blue and white), Sir Michael Livesey (red and white), Sir Richard Grenville (red and gold), and Sir John Hippsley (black and gold). Markham makes his recommendation on p 30. In what must have been a very rare instance, a Royalist officer (possibly Lieut.-Colonel William Martin) included on his ensign not only his crest but his full coat-armour. Unfortunately for him, his flag was captured by the Earl of Essex's forces (Williams, fol 135). 6. See, for examples, such English devices as William Waller's nut-tree, James Butler's Unicorn, and Colonel Purefoy's armed hand with broken lance. Whenever the flag devices appear to be derived from a bearer's heraldic crest, I have attempted to note the point in the 'Comments' field of the Index. 7. See, Williams, fols 131, 135, 149; and Harl 1460, fol 46. 8. These three examples are mentioned by Symonds (Harl 986), fols 79b, 80a, and 82a respectively. 9. Paolo Giovio, Dialogo dell'imprese (Lyons, 1574), sig Avia. 10. The Worthy Tract of Paulus louius (London, 1585), sig A3b. The epistle, it should be noted, has been shown to be a selected translation of parts of Girolamo Ruscelli's Discorso (see, Pierre Spriet, Samuel Daniel (1563-1619): sa vie—son oeuvre [Bordeaux: Didier, 1968], pp 41-4). 11. The coat colours of most infantry regiments are not known. However, on the Royalist side, it is known, for example, that the King's Lifeguard, The Queen's Lifeguard, Prince Rupert's Firelocks, Prince Charles's and Sir Allan Apsley's wore red; Prince Rupert's, Ralph Hopton's, Sir Thomas Lunsford's, and Charles Gerard's wore blue; Sir Ralph Button's, the Marquis of Newcastle's, Lord Percy's, and Sir Ralph Button's wore white; Sir Charles Vavasour's, Sir John Paulet's, Sir Gilbert Talbot's, and Sir Matthew Appleyard's wore yellow; and the Earl of Northampton's, Robert Broughton's and Henry Tillier's wore green. On the Parliament side, Denzil Holies's, Thomas Rainsborough's, and Lord Robartes's wore red; Sir Henry Cholmley's, Sir William Constable's, Lord Saye and Sele's, and the Earl of Stamford's wore blue; Thomas Ballard's, and Sir John Merrick's wore grey; John Hampden's and Samuel Jones's wore green; the Earl of Essex's, Charles Essex's, and Thomas Grahtham's wore orange tawney; and Lord

Brooke's wore purple. From the formation of the New Model Army, red was adopted by the Parliamentarian infantry, something retained by the Standing Army of Charles II and its successors. On coat colours, see Young, Armies, pp 27-28; and Roberts, Infantry, pp 24-25. A note of caution concerning a number of possibly misleading assumptions about coat colours is sounded in Ede-Borrett, pp 62-63. 12. On 'signs' and 'words,' see Haythornthwaite, pp 141-45. 13. Sprigge, p 167. 14. Meehan, p 90. Other examples are given by Haythornthwaite, p 145. 15. Cromwell, Letter CXL, Pt VI, p 191. 16. At Cheriton a nightmare situation developed when at first both sides adopted the same field sign and password (something white in the hat and 'God with us'). See, Haythornthwaite, p 145. 17. Clarendon, p 231. 18. For an account of these incidents at Edgehill and Chalgrove Field, see Haythornthwaite, p 144. 19. The Royalist officer Major William Legge, for example, mistook the colours of a Parliamentary regiment of foot (John Hampden's) for that of a Royalist regiment (the Earl of Northampton's) in August 1642. As a result, he was captured and held prisoner for six weeks (Ede-Borrett, p 1). At Auldean in May 1645, another kind of error was made when Royalist soldiers brandishing the colours they had captured were attacked by fellow Royalists (Williams, Montrose, p 244). 20. For reasons that will quickly become apparent, this volume is primarily concerned with cornets of horse. Guidons, though generally abstract in design, occasionally (from what little is known of them) employed mottoes. 21. For a summary of the documentary evidence concerning the materials, costs, and the construction of Civil War flags, see Ede-Borrett, pp 4-9; and Peachey/Prince, pp 21-22. 22. The cords in surviving illustrations appear to be too short to have been used to furl the ensign. See, Ede-Borrett, p 1. Scottish ensigns appear not have had cords. 23 . See, Markham, pp 31-32; and Venn, pp 182-83. 24. Firth & Davies, p 501. 25. The explanation for the fact that most ensigns of foot did not include emblematic devices may be mere convention, or it may have something to do with some form of unspoken visual hierarchy whereby foot soldiers were to be represented by relatively plain signs. Gervase Markham seems to hint at this when, echoing Giovio's 'rules' for the imprese, he says of flag devices: He that carrieth both Word and devise, carrieth both Soule and Bodie, yet if the devise carrie any humane shape, it is a grosse Bodie, and if the Word contain aboue three of foure words at the most (except it be the latter end, or beginning of some Verse) it is an imperfect Soule: But if both Word and devise be compleate; That is, Empresa and not Embleme, yea they are much fitter for

Maskes, Triumphes, or Pageants, then the Field, or reall Action; for the true mixture of Colours is devise enough for every Foote Souldier. (The Sovldiers Accidence, p 33) 26. Venn, p. 181. The variations upon this pattern employed during the English Civil Wars have been dealt with in detail by Ede-Borrett (Ibid pp 10-40). Venn elsewhere has a unique statement concerning 'the Postures of the Ensign,' in which he explains the various ways of waving and flourishing an ensign (pp 184-86). 27. The best accounts of the various differentiation systems that I am aware of are by Ede-Borrett (pp 1060); and Peachey/Prince (pp 10-20). 28. An exception was the charge of Colonel John Okey's regiment of dragoons during the latter part of the Battle of Naseby. 29. If one added the descriptions of ensigns of foot with their largely abstract designs that do not include mottoes and pictures, the number would be much higher. 30. Normally, Parliamentary flags captured by the Royalists appear to have been sent to Oxford (see, Mercurius Aulicus [Wednesday, 25 October 1643], p 607). In June 1644, however, Mercurius Aulicus reported that '23 Colours ... were sent by Prince Rupert as a present to the Countesse of Derby; to whom they could not but be very welcome' (Sun. 16 June 1644, p 1037). It is known that the Irish Catholics brought the flags they captured at the Battle of Benburb to Limerick where they were paraded through the streets to the Cathedral and there hung up as trophies (Hayes-McCoy (b), pp 56-57). Then they were sent to Rome to be hung up in St. Peter's "to record [the] devotion to the holy see, and the indomitable bravery of the Irish people" (Meehan, p 179). 31. See, Stewart, pp 14-16; and Rushworth, Pt III, vol II, 635. 32. Sprigge, p 142. 33. CJ, IV, 184.

34. Duke Hamiltons Conditions for Surrendering Himself with all the Officers ... (London, 1648), p 1. The same source also mentions that the 'Scots Colours before mentioned are carried down to the Leaguer before Colchester, and will be set up in view of the Towne as so many signalls of that admirable victory, and if the sight of them will not move the Defendents, doubtless if Sir Marmaduke Langdale were there it would do it' (p 4). It is not clear whether this novel plan of intimidation at the siege of Colchester was actually carried out. 35. CJ, VI, 517.

36. Cromwell, Appendix 22, III, 280. 37. Ibid VII, 15. Though untrue, a rumour circulated following the Battle of Worcester that Charles II had gone in disguise to London and 'one day went into Westminster Hal, where ... he saw the States Armes, and Scotch Colours' (Mercurius Politicus, 2 November 1651, p 1171).

Introduction

38. The fire destroyed the greater part of the House of Commons records, an enormous accumulation of wooden tally-sticks, and the greater part of the fabric of the Palace of Westminster. 39. C7, VIII, 18 and 21. 40. When Jonathan Turmile signed his manuscript, he added the note that some nine folios had been left blank. They 'were intended to be filled as in the Index, but there Coloures could never be got to be drawn' (Williams, fol 117). This would seem to imply that Turmile saw all the flags that he did portray. That a number of his pictures of captured Royalist flags show torn and mutilated flags supports this contention. 41. Sources differ concerning the actual numbers of captured flags. A List of the Names of the Lords, Collonels, and other Officers, taken with Duke Hambleton at Utoxeter (London 1648) gives the names of twenty-two officers with the rank of cornet; and Three Letters Concerning the Surrender of Many Scottish Lords ... (London, 1648) includes (p 3) the names of 78 officers with the rank of ensign. However, Duke Hamiltons Conditions for Surrendering Himself with all the Officers ... (London, 1648) states on its titlepage: 'A hundred and thirteen Scots Colours brought up to the Parliament,..." On the first page is a reference to the taking of "Duke Hamiltons owne Standard" and the further statement that "A great number of the Horse-Colours are yet to come in' (p 1). Cromwell's own report (see below) is probably as good an estimate as any. 42. Cromwell, Letter CXLIV, II, 115; and Appendix 22, III, 280. 43. Fisher illustrated 120 ensigns that are described as taken at Dunbar. It seems likely that these include the flags from the engagement in Fife (i.e. Inverkeithing). On this point, see Ede-Borrett and McGarrigle, p23. 44. Ede-Borrett & McGarrigle claim it was (p 23) but offer no supporting documentary evidence. 45. Of some importance also are the manuscript notebooks of the Royalist and antiquary Richard Symonds (1617-1692?), who was an officer in Charles I's army. In the Fall of 1643 he enlisted in the King's Lifeguard of Horse and served with the King and the Oxford Royalist army during the next two years. His notebooks contain several descriptions and drawings of the flags he observed (see, Had 911 and 939; and Add 17062). MS Harl 986, said to be by Symonds, contains a copy of William Levett's illustrated manuscript of the ensigns of the London Trained Bands. Levett's manuscript is listed below. 46. By 'Coronet' Blount means 'Cornet.' 47. Blount points out that he had some difficulty collecting Royalist devices since 'the Commanders on His Majesties part (having no such Metropolis as London to resort unto) were forced to make the best shift they could for their Coronet-Devices in severall Country Towns, no record being kept of many of them.' However, regarding Parliamentary devices, 'by the help of the Heralds, and Herald-painters, in and about London, I have had my choice of neer 300 severall CORONET-DEVISES, ...' (sig Lla). For a detailed account of Blount's work, see my forthcoming essay on 'Henri Estienne's L'art defaire les devises and Thomas Blount's The Art of Making Devises: The Translation of Authority' in Essays on Renaissance and Baroque Symbol Theory, edited by Peter M. Daly and John Manning (New York: AMS Press).

48. Harl 5247. Prestwich's descriptions follow the sequence of the illustrations in this manuscript. To date I have not found any other manuscript that uses this same sequence. 49. The Ashmolean Museum (Oxford) and Worcester College (Oxford) possess a different and somewhat larger edition of the Parliamentary devises. It is quite explicit about its derivation from a manuscript source: 'The DEVISES MOTTO'S &c. used by the Parliament Officers on STANDARDS, BANNERS, &c. in the late CIVIL WARS, taken from an Original Manuscript done at ye time now in ye hands of Benja[min] Cole of Oxford. Published at ye Desire of divers Gentlemen to be Bound up w[ith] ye Lord Clarendon's Hist[ory] Sold by Jos. Smith in Exeter Change London.' At the bottom of the sheet is the price (five shillings) and the statement: 'Sold by Benj. Cole in Bear Lane' (presumably Bear Lane in Oxford). 50. One contemporary Parliamentary report of the battle humorously stated: 'We took (to use the hyperbole) Colours without number, enough to make Surplices for all the Cathedrals in England, were they White ...' (A True Relation of the late Fight [London, 8 July 1644], p 5). 51. Rushworth, Pt III, vol II, 635. 52. Cf the lists of captured Royalist flags in Mercurius Britanicus, No 87 (16 June-23 June 1645), pp 791-92; and The Kingdomes Weekly Intelligencer, No 105 (17 June-24 June 1645), pp 840-41. 53. In spite of Blount's title for his catalogue, it is by no means certain that these flags were ever actually made or used. The Irish Franciscan, Father Luke Wadding, who played an active role in Irish affairs during the Civil Wars, also recorded descriptions of these flags and indicated that two of them had alternate designs, thereby implying that he was not describing completed flags. For the published version of Wadding's manuscript account, see Moran, pp 17-18. 54. For information about these, see the following: Nibblet, 130; Fraser, 74-77; and G.B.M., 64-65. 55. For a detailed description of the Cell ensign, see Peachey/Prince, p 23; and Ede-Borrett, p 64. 56. They are described by Peachey/Prince, pp 25-26; and by Ede-Borrett, pp 65-69. 57. Ede-Borrett, pp 67-68. 58. Ede-Borrett & McGarrigle, pp 52-53. 59. The three Scottish ensigns are described and illustrated by Ede-Borrett & McGarrigle, pp 52-56. 60. Ede-Borrett & McGarrigle describe and illustrate the cornet but give no colours (p 57). 61. The flag was apparently discovered by Father C.P. Meehan, the first modern historian of the Confederacy, in Kilkenny in 1846. 62. Hayes-McCoy (b), p 52. Hayes-McCoy includes an illustration of this flag on p 53. 63. Papers, I, 3.

Thomas, pp 52-55. 76. Malcolm, p 124. 77. Mercurius Aulicus ran (with some gaps in late 1644 and 1645) from 1-7 January 1643 to 31 August-7 September 1645. Aulicus may have been deliberately published on a Sunday (Thomas, p 31, suggests Monday) as a deliberate mockery of Puritan Sabbatarianism (see, Frank, p 33). 78. Mercurius Britanicus, no 28 (counterfeit) (18-25 March 1644), p 217. 79. Mercurius Aulicus, no 58 (4-10 February 1644), pp 825-6. 80. Frank, p 47. 81. On these points, see Thomas, pp 72-80. 82. Thomas, pp 61, 249-52. Mercurius Aulicus was not, of course, the only Royalist newspaper. Beginning in May 1643, for example, the Royalists introduced another periodical, Mercurius Rusticus. From its contents this seems to have been designed primarily to discredit the Parliamentary armies and

their supporters by describing alleged atrocities and the abuses wrought upon cathedral churches. Apart from the lists of newspapers in the works by Williams, Frank, Thomas, and Nelson & Seccombe cited above, the most important list remains the catalogue of the Thomason Tracts (see Fortescue). 83. Mercurius Britanicus ran from 23-29 August 1643 to 18 May 1646. Its editors were successively Thomas Audley and Marchamont Nedham. Aulicus pointed out that the second word of its title was misspelled, a point that Britanicus proudly never did correct. 84. Thomas, p 87. 85. George, p 18. 86. Robert Devereux, the third Earl of Essex, had first been married when very young to Frances Howard. While he was abroad, she engaged in a scandalous relationship with Sir Robert Carr. In 1613 the marriage was annulled and Lady Essex shortly thereafter married Carr. In 1631 Essex married again, but this marriage to Elizabeth, daughter of Sir William Paulet, did not turn out well either. She had a child that died in infancy and was accused of adultery. A separation then took place, although Elizabeth claimed that the charges against her were false. 87. Harl 986, fol 86a. 88. The Essex crest was alluded to in one of the earliest eulogies to the second Earl: 'famous for his crest / His Rain-deer' (George Peele, Eclogue Gratulatorie [1589]). For other such references that establish the familiarity of the crest to the second Earl's contemporaries, see B.N. De Luna, Jonson's Romish Plot (Oxford: Clarendon, 1967), p 251, note 87; and the same author's The Queen Declined (Oxford: Clarendon, 1970), p 93, note 1. More recently Sir Roy Strong has further elucidated an additional allusion in his essay on the portrait of the Persian Lady at Hampton Court (see 'My Weeping Stagg I Crowne: The Persian Lady Reconsidered' in The Art of the Emblem: Essays in Honor of Karl Josef Holtgen, edited by Michael Bath, John Manning, and Alan R. Young [New York: AMS Press, 1992], pp 103-41). 89. The Art of Making Devises, sig L2b. 90. On this point, see Potter, pp 28-29.1 am not suggesting, of course, that the Civil War divided society along class lines. The reality was far more complex. 91. Mercurius Rusticus, another Royalist publication that was edited by Bruno Ryves, struck a similar tone, speaking on one occasion, for example, of 'degenerous times wherein the dregs of the people are made Commanders for the advancement of Rebellion' (Mercurius Rusticus, No 6, p 59). 92.

The motto is based on Horace, Odes, III 3.1. 102. On this latter point, see Kightly (c), 851. Constable's heraldic crest was a three-masted ship. 103. Cf Captain Lumley's cornet with the motto 'Pro rege et notis legibus Angliae.' This was captured by the Parliamentary forces at Cirencester on 15 September 1643. Blount remarks that Lumley used the word 'notis' ('known') 'because both sides professed to fight for the Laws of the Kingdome' (Blount, sig L4b). 104. This point is perhaps borne out by the fact that Captain John Fenwick, a Royalist with the motto 'For the King and Protestant religion,' was asked to change his motto. Rather than do so, he deserted to Fairfax (Certaine Informations from Severall Parts of the Kingdome, no 2, 23-30, January 1643, p 15). 105. Gardiner, Documents, p 155. 106. Ibid., p 156.

Mercurius Aulicus (Oxford, 18 June 1643) complained about this very point, suggesting that such a flag tended 'to make simple folk believe they fought in defence of the Word of God.' 121. On this point, see Malcolm, p 152. 122. This impression, however, should be taken with some caution since information about Parliamentary flags is far more extensive than extant information on Royalist flags. Quantitative comparisons may thus be unreliable. 123. For a detailed discussion of this motif in emblem literature, see Bernhard F. Scholz, '"Ownerless Arms or Legs Stretching from the Sky": Notes on an Emblematic Motif in Andrea Alciato and the Emblem Tradition: Essays in Honor of Virginia Woods Callahan, edited by Peter M. Daly (New York: AMS Press, 1989), pp 249-83. Cf Leslie Hotson, Shakespeare by Milliard (London: Chatto & Windus, 1977), pp 33-36. 124. A medal with this motto was issued in 1642 to reward those serving in the Earl of Essex's army (Hawkins, nos 114,115). Captain Richard Aylworth's cornet with the motto 'Gladius lehovae et Gideonis' ('The sword of Jehovah and Gideon') treated the same theme and depicted a victorious army pursuing a defeated one. At the top was an angel in gold with an unsheathed sword. 125. Warburton, I, 383. Other Parliamentary flags depicting a Bible include those with the following mottoes: 'Causa patet,' 'Exurgat deus dissipentur inimici,' 'For the liberty of the gospel,' 'Lex suprema salus patriae,' 'Lose this, lose all,' 'Ora et pugna iuvit et iuvabit lehovah,' 'Pour ce cey,' 'Pro pace et veritate,' 'Rex in potestate sui pugnans,' 'Spiro his, his expirabo,' 'Verbum dei,' 'Virtue shall weigh down vice.' 126.

Introduction

129. In the face of such assertive sentiments on the Parliamentary side against the episcopacy and anything that could be accused of papistry, the response of the Royalists was limited. However, the Royalist Henry Constable, a Lieutenant Colonel of Horse and a Roman Catholic who was killed at the defence of Scarborough Castle in 1645, placed on his flag 'In hoc signo + vinces' (With this sign you conquer). Besides the challenge to Puritan sensibilities offered by his use of the sign of the cross, one may also note, as Blount suggests (sig L2b), the echo of Constantine the Great whose conversion to Christianity occurred when he saw a cross in the sky. 130. Both parties, however, made use of the image. See, Christopher Hill, Antichrist in SeventeenthCentury England, revised edition (London: Verso, 1990). 131. Robert Ram, The Souldiers Catechisme: Composed for The Parliaments Army (London, 1644), pp 7 and 9. This fascinating document, which was extremely popular and went through several editions, was recently published in a facsimile edition with an introduction by Victor Neuburg (Leigh-on-Sea, Essex: Partizan Press, 1986). 132. Scott-Giles, p 180; and Hawkins, no 112. 133. Stewart, p 14. 134. CJ, III, 257; and LJ, VI, 233. The offending cornet had been taken from Sir Nicholas Crisp's regiment. It is possibly significant that Crisp was later one of the Royalists excluded from the indemnity in the terms proposed to the King at Uxbridge in 1645 after meetings between the Parliamentary and Royalist commissioners. 135. Gardiner, Documents, pp 236-37. 136. On this point, see Blount, sig L2b. 137. The motto is based on Cicero, Against Catiline, I 1. 138. If the figure in the purple robe is intended to be King Charles, then this device was probably a reference to Charles' entry into the House of Commons and his placing of himself in the Speaker's place to demand that the Five Members be delivered to him. 139. Philip Hunton, author of A Treatise of Monarchy (London, 1643), is a case in point, and John Lilburne, the central figure in the Leveller movement and the author of numerous pamphlets, is another. 140. James Cranford, The Teares of Ireland (London, 1642), sig A4a. 141. Ironically, hindsight shows that nothing done by the Irish ever matched the slaughter authorized by Cromwell after the siege of Droghede in 1649 when over 3,000 soldiers, civilians, and Catholic friars and clergy were put to the sword, and St. Peter's Church with all inside it was burned. At Wexford shortly after, the same pattern was repeated with the deaths of 2,000 Irish. Not surprisingly, Cromwell remains today one of the most hated names in Irish history.

142. There were other military expeditions to Ireland during the Civil War era, but I know of only the flag devices of Rowland Langharne's regiment (already mentioned above) that date from 1646, and that of Sir John Bridges, which was probably intended to be used on Cromwell's expedition to Ireland in 1649. Bridges's flag used the motto 'Paice la meilleus harmonic' (Peace is the best harmony) and, repeating a now familiar device, depicted a gold harp. 143. Blount states that the flags were cornets (though on what evidence is not clear), and he furthermore asserts that the flags were 'taken from the Irish Rebels in the late warres' (p 87). If he is correct, the designs for the flags must have been put into effect. 144. Father Wadding's description states: 'Nota quod in parte dextra cujuslibet vexilli posita sit crux Hiberniae in cujus circuitu color ruber in campo viridi. Sub cruce vivat Rex Carolus; et super, has literas, C.R. et corona Imperialis' (Moran, p 18). Hayes-McCoy believes the 'crux Hiberniae' was a cross potent rather than a saltire and further suggests, erroneously I believe, that the cross and crown device was on one side of each flag and the other varying devices were on the other (Hayes-McCoy (b), p 51). However, his reconstruction of the appearance of the flags does take into account certain aspects of Wadding's description that are not in accord with that in The True Informer. 145. Possibly Wadding had access only to information concerning the preliminary designs, whereas the author of the report in The True Informer saw the actual Confederacy flags, which he describes as 'the Ensignes and Mottoes of their Army' (p 355). 146. Moran, p 17. Wadding also comments on the disputed matter of Limbo (Moran, p 18). 147. The ensign is described in Spalding, II, 173. The field tincture is not known, but it was almost certainly gold, the colour most in favour among the Scottish Royalists. Five months after Huntly had his ensign made, the government issued a proclamation, echoing the motto of Huntly's ensign, and ironically declaring that the Marquis of Montrose and all his folowers were 'traittouris to religioun, king, and countrie' (Spalding, II, 174). 148. Blount, sig L2a. 149. Although Blount claims that this cornet was that of Montrose, Sir James Balfour, who was present in Scotland at the time and whose sources appear to have been independent of Blount's, claimed that the cornet was used by the King himself (Balfour, III, 439-40). 150. Balfour, III, 440; and Blount (1655 ed), sig N4a. Blount refers to a man rather than a lion. Both Blount's and Balfour's descriptions make 'emblematic' sense. However, the lion would suggest the King's situation. Blount merely suggests that the bearer of this flag was 'Another eminent person.' Balfour, on the other hand, says the cornet was used by Montrose himself. 151. Balfour, III, 440; and Blount (1655 ed), sig N4a. 152. See, Baillie, I, 212. For a succinct summary of the mottoes used at different times by the Scottish armies between 1639 and 1651, see, Furgol, pp 11-12. 153. Spalding, I, 154.

Introduction

154. This was the motto used by the Lady Marchioness of Hamilton (mother of the Royalist commander, the Marquis of Hamilton). At the head of her troop of horse, its members mostly raised from her son's own tenants, she supposedly confronted her son, the device on her cornet being a hand repelling a book to signify Scotland's and her own rejection of Charles I's attempt to impose a Book of Prayer upon the Scots (see, CSP [Dom], Charles I. 1639, pp 146, 282, and 331; and Rubinstein, p 99; and Ede-Borrett and McGarrigle, p 11). 155. Acts Parliamentorum Caroli II (1650), Acts of Parliament for Scotland, 605. On the topic of the various mottoes used, see, Reid, Scots (2), p 41; and Ede-Borrett & McGarrigle, pp 9-10. 156. The Colonel's flag usually had a plain field in a single tincture with no saltire. Other officers in the same regiment appear to have added the saltire. For the Scottish systems of differencing, see, Ede-Borrett & McGarrigle, pp 8-9; and Reid, Scots, pp 5-6. 157. For a recent account of the Clubmen, see Gentles, pp 161-66. 158. Sprigge, p 80. 159. 'And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever.' The Fifth Monarchists also believed that the Fourth Monarchy, that of Rome or Antichrist, would shortly be overthrown. 160. For some account of eighteenth-century American device-making, see the following: Frank H. Somer, 'Emblem and Device: The Origin of the Great Seal of the United States,' Art Quarterly, 24 (1961), 56-76; Eric P. Newman, 'Continental Currency and the Fugio Cent: Sources of Emblems and Mottoes,' Numismatist (Dec. 1966), 1587-98; the same author's The Early Paper Money of America (1967; rpt Racine, Wis., 1976); J.A. Leo Lemay, The American Aesthetic of Franklin's Visual Creations,' The Pennsylvania Magazine, 111, no 4 (October 1987), 465-99; Lester C. Olson, Emblems of American Community in the Revolutionary Era: A Study in Rhetorical Iconology (Washington and London: Smithsonian Institution Press, 1991); and my own review of this last in Emblematica, 6 no 1 (1992). 161. The remaining material in this Introduction repeats much that was said in previous volumes, since, for the sake of consistency, I have used wherever possible the same wording as that of the General Editor, Peter Daly. Because the nature of the material dealt with in this volume is somewhat different from the emblem book format indexed in previous volumes, the reader will note a number of changes.

BIOGRAPHY: Captain of troop of horse in Essex's army (Peacock, p 47). A Colonel John Gunter is listed by Ricraft as having been slain in 1647 (P 155). COMMENTS: The Royalists interpreted the device as a reference to their ignominious flight at Powick Bridge. In 1643, this cornet was captured by the Royalists. Referring to the Colour as Essex's, the Royalist new motto 'was an admirable Motto for one who never shewed his face in the battaile' (Mercurius Aulicus, 18 June 1643). Warburton remarks that the Cavaliers found much to comment upon when the cornet 'was seen in retreat, or warning the terrified farmers of approaching contributions' (Warburton, I, 374 note 2). The Williams ms depicts this as fringed tenne and argent.

BIOGRAPHY: Colonel of regiment of horse. Commissioned in Winter of 1642/43. Formerly a captain (Peacock, p 53).

DATE: 1642-47

RANK: Colonel

COMMENTS: Blount suggests that Ridgeley wished his device to 'shew his dislike of Papacy.' The use of this motto on a Parliamentary cornet may be ironic since the same motto was used on a number of the coins issued by Charles I during the Civil Wars (Scott-Giles, p 180; Besly, pp 31-32). It was also used on a Royalist medal that was struck about the year 1642 (Hawkins, no 112). The motto derives from the Vulgate text for Psalm 67:2 (68:1 in KJV): 'exurgat deus et dissipentur inimici eius' ('Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered').

BIOGRAPHY: Of London and Yorkshire. Commissioned Colonel of Foot in June 1643. In Basing House garrison, he played major role in siege, but deprived of his command through influence of Marquis of Winchester. Died 1646 (Newman, 1195). The only horse Rawdon ever seems to have commanded was the Faringdon Governor's Troop in 1645-46. COMMENTS: Blount suggests that the device expresses Rawdon's dislike of the Covenant. The ermine, symbol of royalty, will not survive the pollution of its fur, according to common belief. The Williams ms gives only the motto ('Malem mori quam foedari'). The motto is a popular family heraldic motto. In emblem literature, the device can be found in Giovio, p 30; and in Peacham, p 75.

COMMENTS (cont): This cornet was captured by the Earl of Essex's Parliamentary forces at Cirencester on 15 Sept 1643. The device appears to be to show Religion (or Hope) mourning over the death and destruction caused by the war which destroys temperance (the bridle) and the values of religion (the cross) itself. The emblematic device for this flag may have been based upon the emblem 'Cuique & nemini' in Peacham's Minerva Britanna (1612) or upon Ripa's entry for 'Fede Christiana' in his Iconologia, a number of editions of which were published prior to 1642, though not in England.

The light shineth in darkness; but the darkness comprehendeth it not; so agreeth Brother Prestwich, who hopeth he will never meet a brother in need without shewing how far the command of the Most High operateth with him; ...'

FIELD & FRINGE: Gules. Fringed argent and gules. PARTY: Parliament DATE: 1642-

RANK: Captain

BIOGRAPHY: Poet and emblematist. Served as Captain of Horse in 1st Bishops' War. In 1642 raised troop of horse for Parliament side, and on 14 Oct. appointed captain and commander of Farnham Castle. Subsequently, according to a doubtful but much cited legend, he was captured by Royalists but saved by Sir John Denham who pleaded that 'so long as Wither lived he [Denham] would not be accounted the worst poet in England.' In Campo-Musae (London, 1644), Wither mentions that he is serving under the 'English and Scottish' Colonel Middleton (sig E5b). Middleton commanded the horse of Waller's army in 1644 but declined to serve in the New Model (Temple, 62). Wither was later promoted to rank of Major. A strong supporter of Cromwell, he was imprisoned at the Restoration in 1660. COMMENTS: Blount gives the motto as 'Pro rege et grege.' Wither employed a woodcut frontispiece in his Campo-Musae, Or The Field-Musings of Captain George Wither (London, 1644), showing his cornet. The ensuing poem at several points develops the theme of the respective roles in the conflict of sword and pen.

COMMENTS: The Parliamentary newspaper Certaine Informations, defending Dowett against various alleged slanders in the Royalist newspaper Mercurius Aulicus, described his cornet in detail and explained that he held a Bible and Magna Charta. Possibly Dowett entered Essex's army as a captain and changed his cornet device when he became a major (see Add 5247, fol 26a).

Ede-Borrett & McGarrigle suggest that the arm, sword, and crown device is 'an allegorical concept which would have been well known during the 17th Century. The story refers to the Emperor Hadrian who, on his accession, offered his sword to his guard and bade them use "for or against him as he deserved.1" Presumably, for Hadrian, one should read Charles. The flag was captured by Cromwell's forces at Dunbar in 1650. The motto is the heraldic motto of the Murrays of Sterling co.

BIOGRAPHY: Culpepper was only nominal commander. He served as King's Chancellor of the Exchequer and was no soldier. He was granted a peerage in 1644. COMMENTS: The Parliamentary records state that the cornet was 'in Sir NIC'S CRISPES'S Regiment' (LJ, VI, 233). Crisp obtained a commission from Charles I on 3 July 1643 to raise a regiment of 500 horse, but before it was complete, it was surprised by Essex at Cirencester (15 Sept 1643) and captured to a man. Parliament appears to have found this cornet particularly offensive (see CJ, III, 257; and LJ, VI, 233). Blount says that 'you may guesse what was meant' (i.e. Traitors without and traitors within').

In the New Model, Lambert served as Colonel, then Major-General and right hand man to Cromwell, serving with him at Preston and Dunbar. He played important role at Worcester. He fell out with Cromwell in 1657 and was jailed for life at the Restoration. COMMENTS: Blount suggests that the bearer wished 'to speak no ill to Monarchy.' The shield with the arms is only penciled in in Add 5247. It does not appear in Harl 1397, Rawlinson, and NAM. Harl 1397 and Rawlinson trick the field as azure. Add 5247 gives rank as Captain. For Lambert's later cornet, see 'Pro rege et veritate.' Lawson believes that this cornet was that used by Lambert prior to 1644 (p 59).
