The image, bedizened and effulgent, was borne aloft upon the shoulders of her adorers, followed by the guilds, the military associations, the rhetoricians, the religious sodalities, all in glittering costume, bearing blazoned banners, and marching triumphantly through the streets with sound of trumpet and beat of drum.
The articles were to be signed by the stadholders, magistrates, and principal officers of each province and city, and by all the train- bands, fraternities, and sodalities which might exist in the cities or villages of the union. Such were the simple provisions of that instrument which became the foundation of the powerful Commonwealth of the United Netherlands.
There were also military sodalities of musketeers, cross-bowmen, archers, swordsmen in every town.

These festivals, always held with great solemnity and rejoicing, were accompanied bye many exhibitions of archery and swordsmanship.
