The arch of the bridge, commonly called the Loosduyn, has been coloured with a representation of a man and a woman at an altar, upon which is the king's effigies with a staff in his hand, upon which staff his majesty's name is written, with a crown, and these words underneath, lo triumphator. All hail triumpher. Upon the two pillars of the said arch of the bridge, are these fol lowing inscriptions, Ob cives servatos, et hostes fugatos. For citizens preserved, and enemies put to flight.

I add here for the conclusion, that in the middle of the pond of the palace was erected a great scaffold, upon which was set down the cypher of his majesty's name, with a royal crown above, which was shewn by torch-light, without mentioning many other curious and artful lights, in several other places; besides the firing of thirty great guns that were planted by the said pond, and frequently discharged as occasion and the design required.
