- cross

Cross Крест. (fr. Croix; old fr. crois, croyz, &c.): the term Cross without any addition signifies, §1, a Plain cross, which, it is said, should occupy one-fifth of the shield; but when charged it may be occupy one-third. Its use as an heraldic ensign may be considered to be as early as any, and to belong to the time of the first crusades, in which the principal nations of Christendom are said to have been distinguished by crosses of different colours: and it is naturally found to be most frequently employed in the insignia of religious foundations. (фр. Croix; старофр. crois, croyz, &c): термин Cross без какого-либо дополнения обозначает, §1, обыкновенный крест, который, как сказано, должен занимать одну пятую часть щита; но когда он обременён, то может занимать одну третью часть щита. Он используется как геральдический знак, возможно, самый ранний из всех, и принадлежит ко времени первых крестовых походов, в которых главенствующие нации христианского мира различались с помощью крестов разных цветов, и это действительно наиболее часто использовалось как обозначение региональной принадлежности.

«And on his brest a bloodie crosse he bore,

The deare remembrance of his dying Lord, For whose sweete sake that glorious badge he wore, And dead, as living ever, his ador'd: Upon his shield the like was was scor'd.» Spenser's «Faerie Quene,» bk. i.

«И на своей груди кровавый крест он носил,

Дорогая память об умершем господе, Чьего милосердия ради этот прославленный знак он носил, И умер, как и живущий вечно, им почитаемый (господь): На его щите был отмечен.» Спенсер. «Волшебная королева». кн. i.
