Excerpt: ...will compare with that of the New-bridge at Paris, or thofe others at Florence and Madrid, though made by Sueur his Mafter, Iohx de Bolonia that rare worke-man, who not long fince lived at Florence. At Yorke-houfe alfo, the Galleries and Roomes are ennobled with the pofleflion of thofe Romane Heads, and Statues, which lately belonged to Sir Peter Paul Rubons Knight, that exquifit Painter of Antwerp: and the Garden will bee renowned fo long as lohn de Bologna's Cain and Abel ftand erected there, a peece of wondrous Art and Workemanfhip. The King ofSpaine gave it his Majeftie at his being there, who beftowed it on the late Duke of Buckingham. And thus have we of late yeeres a good fample of this firft fort of Antiquities accom parried with fome novelties, which neverthelefle can not but fall fhort of thofe in other Countries, where the love and ftudy of them is farre ancienter, and the meanes to come by them eafier. It is not enough for an ingenuous Gentleman to behold thefe with a vulgar eye: but he muft be able to diftin-guifh them, and tell who and what they be. To doe this, there be foure parts: Firft, by generall learning in Hif-tory and Poetry. Whereby we are taught to know lupiter by his thunder-bolt, Mars by his armour, Neptune by his Trident, Apollo by his harpe, Mercury by his winges on his cap and feet, or by his Caduceus; Ceres by a handfull of corne, Flora by her flowers, Bacchus by his Vine-leaves, Pomona by her Apples, Hercules by his club or Lyons skin, Hercules infans by his grafping of Snakes. Comedy by a vizard in her hand, Diana by a crefcent, Pallas by her helmet and fpeare, and fo generally of moft of the Deities. Some mortals alfo are knowne by their cognifances, as Laocoon by his Snakes flinging him to death, ..

Excerpt from Peacham's Compleat Gentleman, 1634: With an Introduction by G. S. Gordon Other and less invidious causes had contributed to the change. In the history of the English gentleman the growth of the idea of Public Duty is almost as noticeable as his transformation into the Courtier. It had made some progress under Richard II, only to be miserably shattered in the wars of the succession; under the Tudors it steadily made way, and when the troubles of religion began it threatened the destruction of everything that had made the gentleman an amiable companion and a courteous enemy. It was something of this feeling, joined to a narrow sort of nationalism, which inspired that sturdy band of 'anglo-saxons of whom Cheke and Ascham were the leaders. They had welcomed the revival of classical learning and could not help admiring the high ideal of the Courtier, drawn so splendidly by Castiglione but they feared the subtle genius of Italy, and her seducing influence on the morals of their country and the purity of the English tongue. As it turned out, their fear for English morals was ungrounded and Italy only made way for France, a much less worthy guest.

Excerpt from Peacham's Compleat Gentleman, 1634: With an Introduction Surrey and Wyatt would have found themselves as little at home as did Raleigh. The bitterness of political and religious strife shattered the unity of an ideal which had been the proudest ornament of the previous age; there were henceforth two standards by which the gentleman was measured, and Cavalier and Puritan divided the suffrages of society.
