talité est acquise.
Triton, Trompete, en mer, cornant hault son
Dessus est Dieu marin, dessoubz poisson,
Par le mylieu d’ung serpent embrassé,
Qui mord sa queüe, en ung rondeau dressé.
Renom suyct gens ou noble esprit abonde,
Et leurs beaulx faictz, faict lire en tout le monde.[1]
Le Triton marin designe haulte eloquence, & pro-
fonde science, le rond & en soy revolu serpent, aeternité, la
conque ou il corne. Renommée. Par lesquelles choses est
signifiée aeternelle renommée de science, & d’eloquence.
