is a sword, crossing behind his helmet, which is surmounted by a plume and has the vizor down. The ground is parsemé with flowers.
5. "S. Conventvs Clarevallis." Clairvaux, in France. A circular seal, nearly 2 in. in diameter, of late fourteenth-century character. The device is three niches surmounted by elaborately enriched canopies, flanked on each side by a smaller niche. In the centre niche is a figure of the Virgin and Child, and in each of the two niches next it is the figure of a bishop with a crozier.
6. "Sigillvm Capitoli de Mvxeio." a circular seal, 1{{fs70|1116. in. in diameter, of thirteenth-century work (?). The device is a figure of St. Peter seated on a chair, the arms and feet of which have the head and claws of a griffon. The figure is fully robed, and has a tiara on the head. In the right hand are the double keys; in his left a volume resting against his chest. On the field are distributed the letters, "Sc's Petrvs."
7. "S. Dn'i Jacobi Cvrialis D. Salerno Dei gratiâ Ep'i Bisignianensis." Bisignano, in Italy. A seal of the vesica piscis form, 218 in. long by 138 in. wide, of late fourteenth-century work. The device is in three divisions. In the lowest division is a narrow square-shaped panel with a trefoiled head, containing a robed figure standing, possibly episcopal; on each side is a shield charged with a bend indented. The middle division is a square compartment with three flat-arched foliated heads, one over each of three figures occupying the field. The centre figure is that of the seated Virgin, with the infant Jesus standing on her left knee; on her left is a saint, with a sword in the right hand and a staff in the left; on her right is a similar figure, with a palm branch (?) in the right hand. All have nimbi. The upper division has a richly canopied head in three divisions, under which is seated God the Father, on his throne, his head encircled with a nimbus. He bears in front the Saviour on the cross.
8. "S' Capitoli Sc'e Marie Scola Grecor'"—probably of some Institution at Venice. A seal of the same form as No. 7, 2 in. long and 1516 in. wide, probably of the fifteenth century. The device is a figure of the Virgin seated on a throne, with the infant Jesus on her left knee and a sceptre in her right hand. She is under a deeply recessed canopy with a trefoiled head, resting on a slender spiraled column on each side, surmounted by capitals.
9. S' Grimaldi P'oris Sc'e Catarine d' Mut." Modena, Italy. A seal of the same form as No. 7, 178 in. long by 1116 in. wide. The device is a full-length figure of St. Catherine crowned and richly robed, her feet resting on a trefoiled arch, under which is a small figure of a monk praying. On each side of her is a row of alternate flowers and crosses placed vertically.
