OF THE MONETH Ianuary, with the Latins the first, with the He∣brues called Thebet, their tenth Moneth, with the Athenians called Gamelion, their eight Moneth, and with the Aegyptians called T••bi, their fift Moneth.

The first Daie.

THis Moneth Ianuary was made by Numa Pompilius, the 2. king of Rome, the first Moneth of the yéere. For Romulus his prede∣cessor the first king of Rome, began his yere in March consecrating this Moneth vnto his supposed Father Mars: for at this time the Romans had but ten moneths in their yéere, called Annus Romuli after Romulus time. Ianuary and Fe∣bruary were added to Romulus yéeres by Numa Pompilius to make the yéere twelue moneths. Ianuary he dedicated to God Ianus, and caused it to bee the first moneth in the yeere amongst the Romanes, making March to be the third moneth. For Nu∣ma preferred peace before warre, and ciuill things before Mar∣tiall, and therefore Ianus was set before Mars, for were this Ianus either king or demy-God, he was in former age very ci∣uill and politike, of whom the Romans brag most: for hee had temples, altars, sacrifices, and ceremonies done to him this moneth. In the Temple of Ianus the Consuls, the Senators, all the Magistrates of Rome should solemnly méete to deter∣mine

and to consult about wars or dangers of the Citie when occasion so serued. By the temple of Ianus it was knowne whe∣ther the Romanes were in warres or in peace: if it were open as alwaies it was, it signified wars, if it were shut, which was neuer but thrée times, once in Numa Pomp. time, the second time in Augustus Caesar, and the third after Titus Vespasian triumphed ouer Hierusalem, then it signified peace, if there the Senators and Magistrates of Rome had agreed vpon wars, one of the Consuls should goe presently to the temple of Bello∣na, and take a speare in his hande, and flourish with the speare before the Altar of Bellona, and thereby pronounced warres in the Romanes behalfe. Genial. lib. 1. cap. 14.

All Calendes which is the first day of euerie moneth, was consecrated to Iuno, and the Ides to Iupiter by the Romanes. For in the Calendes of Ianuary, the king called Rex sacrorum, and the priestes called Flamines, vsed to offer vp in sacrifice to Iuno a lambe or a yoong dooue for good successe of that moneth: for euerie first day of euerie moneth they vse the like sacrifice with all ceremonies therevnto belonging, to Iuno, for that the olde Romanes supposed Iuno and the Moone all one. Macrob. lib. 1. cap. 15.

This day in Rome they were wont to elect newe Magi∣strates, and to present them with laurell braunches and giftes, with great mirth through the Citie.

They celebrated the feast of Iuno in Rome called Gamelia, as the Greekes were wont to do to Bacchus the feast of Lenaea the same day, with all due solemne ceremonies belonging vnto the Goddesse Iuno. In this feast of Gamelia, Iuno had these ce∣remonies in hir sacrifice: of all married women and of yoong women, which were to be married, they should come vnto the temple of Iuno to make their supplication to their Goddesse, to remoue all bitternes and choler from that present sacrifice, and to bury all displeasure and offences which might moue Iuno to anger, openly before all the people vnder hir sacred Altar, vpon the which they offered their sacrifice, that it might be signified, that all marriages ought to be without strife, bitternes or an∣ger. Genial. lib. 6. cap. 4.

In like manner in Athens the feast of Lenaea is celebrated

withall too much licentious and vncomely spéeches with foo∣lish & wanton gestures, where also the Poets did vse to make slaunderous and biting verses one against another, in such sort as he that could excell in scurrilitie, scoffes, and floutes, eyther in prose or in verse, hee was crowned with a garland made of Iuy, and Thyrsus giuen to his hande, as one of the victors in Bacchus feast. The Grecians were nothing inferiour to the Romans for their ceremonies in feasts & sacrifice. Plut.

In Athens this feast was so ce∣lebrated with great mirth and triumph in ioy, that the spring came on: the yong men had a publike feast wherein they vsed many ceremonies to the moone.

In India the king with his traine (according to the maner of the countrie) was wont to wash himselfe at a certaine riuer, and after offered to the Gods in sacrifice blacke horses & blacke buls, for that colour is of greater estimation than white, and more holy and acceptable to their Gods, and after vsed much mirth.

Rome was not yet come to hir great pompe and dignitie: for none of their seuen Kings rode in any triumphant Chariot, but eyther on foote like the triumph of Ouation, or else on horsebacke from the Temple of Bellona where the Senators met them, and brought them through the Cittie into the Capitoll, where after sacrifice done, they celebrated the feast called Epulum Iouis, which feast was also called Epulum triumphale.

The pompe of Caius Marius in his triumph which hee had in Rome ouer Iugurth king of Numidia, at what time Metel∣lus depriued him of much of his honour in the conquering of Iu∣gurth,

which spited Marius sore, that the glory of his triumph should be thus hindered by Metellus; but the greatest glory of his triumph had Silla, by the meanes of Bocchus king of Nu∣midia father in law to Iugurth, who through trecherie deliue∣red Iugurth into the hands of Lu. Silla. This was the originall cause of the cruell and bloody ciuill warres after in Rome, be∣tweene Marius and Silla, to the ouerthrow almost of the whole Empire. Silla was then but Quaestor vnder Marius, in the lat∣ter end of the wars. Metellus which deserued best the triumph was also cut by Silla, howbeit Marius had a solemne triumph granted in spite of Silla and his adherents, and that with great solemnitie and pompe.

The old auncient Romanes had vpon the fift day of Ianu∣ary in the first time of their kinges elections certaine ceremo∣nies of white beanes, which among the Grecians were signes of good euentes to come, as the blacke beanes prognosticate thinges infortunate to come. Beside in y^• time of Romulus they sacrificed in Rome with milke and not with wine: and so the Athenians did appease the furie of the Gods in sacrifices with water and honie clarified, and not with wine of a long time af∣ter: the first was vnto Dionisius, in the which they sacrificed wine, honie, and milke.

The seuenth Daie.

VPon the seuenth day of the moneth Thebi, which is Ia∣nuary, a festiuall great day is solemnized vnto Mars in the Cittie of Papremus in Egypt, after sunne setting, where the priests standing in the verie porches of Mars his chappell with great woodden keies in their handes, hauing no leysure to looke vnto the sacrifice within the chappell for the great multitude which would violently enter in, to sée the se∣crets of the ceremonies: with these Priests were certaine per∣s••ns which vowed to do their best with the Priests, and to stand with them against these violent persons: for in that chappell

was the Image of the mother of God Mars honored and wor∣shipped, with such secret ceremonies as none might knowe but such as the Priests had appointed. No man might enter int•• this temple, vnlesse he were cleane washed ouer, Post venerem, which in other countries was lawfull, supposing multiplicati∣on to be acceptable vnto their Gods, sauing in Egypt and in Gréece, which abstained to defile their Temple.

In diuers Citties of Egypt, as Heliopolis, Butis, & others, they haue this custome for their sacrificed beasts, they are kept with such care from the father vnto the sonne, being vowed to be sacrificed to the Gods in this manner. When any Egyptian doth consecrate any beast or fowle to any of their Gods, as in Egypt euery seuerall God hath his seuerall beast or fowle for sacrifice: they shaue their childrens heades, or halfe the haires of their heades, they lay that in the one part of the ballance, and in the other ende a piece of siluer that shall weigh downe the haires: this money they gaue to those that keepe this sacred beast for sacrifice, and by the lawe of Egypt if any man kill any of these beastes willingly, he shall die for it, if against his will, he shall bee so punished, or hee shall pay as much money as the Priestes of Vulcan shall set downe, but whosoeuer killeth the bird Ibis shal die the death without any excuse. The like law is read of the Thessalonians of their storkes, and among the old Brittaines of their kites and rau••ns. But of the Egyptians feastes and sacrifices, you shall read as they happen vpon their daies in their monethes, which I haue laid downe as I found them.

Tiridates golden helmet was carried before him, as the manner of the kings of Armenia be, hee was commaunded to lay his sword from him while he talked with Nero, in obei∣sance of the Empire of Rome, to whom the Armenians paid tri∣bute: the king tooke his keie and lockt his sword in his scabard, and therewithall made some reuerent obeisance vnto Nero, In Naples hee was feasted with great pompe and solemnitie, hée was brought to see the Gladiatory plaies, and other triumphes by sundry men done, and by sundry women, and beside strange ••••ghts and inuentions by Ethiopian yoong men, with all kind of hunting within the Amphytheater of wilde beastes, with tame beasts fighting one against another. After this Nero brought the king with all his pompe into Rome, where all the Cittie in most sumptuous manner was adorned and set foorth with gar∣lands of flowers and crownes of laurell, and there in presence of all the people, the king of Armenia said: I am Tiridates king of Armenia, nephew vnto the great Arsaces king of Parthia,
