There are also other strange Creatures kept there, Leopards, Eagles &c &c w^{ch} have been brought from forreign parts. In another place is kept the Crowns and all y^e Regalias, as orb, scepters, swords. The Crown that is made on purpose to Crown a prince is pulled to pieces againe and they only reserve an old large Crown of King Harry y^e seventh in form of a Ducall Coronet, and y^e Crown w^{ch} is used for the passing of bills, of w^{ch} here after. This hath Large pearles on y^e Cross and an Emerauld on y^e top of y^e head w^{ch} Closes the bands w^{ch} goes every way of y^e sides to y^e round frame full of Diamonds and Saphyr’s and Rubies w^{ch} y^e frame at y^e bottom is also enchased with. This Large Emerauld is as bigg as an Egg all transparent and well Cut: the Globe is alsoe sett w^{th} diamonds representing y^e Lines on the Celestial Globe. The middle or body of y^e Tower is full of armour of all sorts and placed in Each roome w^{th} great Curiosity Like a ffurniture on y^e walls and kept very bright and fine. And now I shall return to y^e Hall att Westminster where are all y^e Courts of justice kept. There are severall parts out of y^e hall for y^e Court of y^e Kings Bench for tryal of all Causes by jurys, Grand juryes and petty jurys, to manage w^{ch} there is a Lord Chief Justice and three other Judges his assistants, where matters are heard by Councellors, attornys and solicitors to plead y^e Cause in the Court. All these formerly were but few in number when buisness was not delayed but brought to a quick jssue and persons had matters decided quicker, but now they are increased extreamely and Consequently buisness Lengthened out for their profit. There is alsoe another Court of y^e Common pleas to w^{ch} is another Chiefe Justice, the first is Call’d the Lord Chiefe Justice of the Kings Bench Court, y^e other the Lord Chiefe Justice of y^e Common pleas—he hath alsoe three Judges assistants. This Court is in something the same nature managed as y^e former, only that matters of Life and death are not here tryed or determined, that belongs to y^e Kings Bench. There is alsoe the Exchequer Chamber which is another Court and managed by a Lord Chiefe Baron and 3 other Barrons assistants, w^{ch} are all judges, and all first sergeants and in this manner are fitted, having been Entred at such an age into any of y^e jnns of Court of w^{ch} there are many in y^e town, Lincolns-inn, Grays-inn, Ffurnifulls-inn, Clemens-jnn, Cliffords-inn and others. The Temples Likewise are such where they are students in the Law and goe to hear Causes and are trained up in that Learning w^{ch} is grounded on our Laws, the Magna Charta Law of the whole kingdom by w^{ch} all matters are or may be decided. After soe many yeares studdy and being thus Entred they are Called to y^e barr—y^t is to plead as Councellors and Barristers in these Courts, and out of such that have been thus Barristers many yeares
