Knights of St. Maurice and St. Lazarus.

THese two Orders were erected by E∣manuel Philibert, Duke of Savoy, in Anno 1572. and at the request of the said Duke were confirmed and united into one Order by Pope Gregory the Thirteenth, who constituted the said Duke and his Suc∣cessors Dukes of Savoy Grand Masters there∣of, obliging them to set out two Gallies for the Service of the Papal See against the Turkish Pirats.

Their Ensign is a green Cross of St. La∣zarus, charged with a white Cross of St. Maurice, which they wear either tied to a gold Chain or a Ribon. Their Habit is a Gown of crimson Tabby, with a long Train, wide Sleeves, and edged about with white Taf∣faty, and a Cordon with a Tassel of white and green fixt to the Collar thereof.
