Ne i temerarii.
The reckless.
Vedi, si come mal Phetonte ardito
Resse il carro del padre: onde dapoi.
Che col danno de vivi alto e
infinito
Distrugge da gli Hesperii a i lidi Eoi,
Cadde: e l’audace
corso
hebbe finito
Parimento col fin de glianni suoi.
Cosi s’erge
alcun
Principe, ch’al
fondo
Muorsi, dopo haver prima afflito il mondo.

Fureur & rage.
XLIX.
Ce bouclier un lion porte plein de fureur,
Le lion, lequel est des humains la terreur:
De ce bouclier estoit
Agamemnon le maistre,
Le plus fort & vaillant qu’aucun autre eust peu estre.[1]
Commentaires.
Anciennement la plus part des Princes & grands
Seigneurs, ne chargeoyent leurs armoiries de chose
qui ressentist sa superbe ou
cruauté: mais l’expedition
de Godefroy de Bouillon en la terre saincte, remplit
les armoiries des Rois & Princes d’Aigles, de Gry-
phons, de Lions, & autres furieux animaux. Le Roy
de France presque seul entre tous retint ses blanches
fleurdelis. Mais, helas! & jadis,
& de nostre siecle,
plusieurs Seigneurs font sentir & experimenter à
leurs peuples la tyrannie & cruauté des animaux
qu’ils portent en leurs armoiries. Peu, ou peut estre,
pas un, n’aspire à acquerir le surnom d’Aristide. Le
bouclier d’Agamemnon a demeuré quelque temps
pendu au temple Olympique.
