I knew there were two sides to this complaint from a Hudson's Bay man. "No! That's why I nearly finished him; but the more I clubbed, the more he jabbered impertinence, 'Cooloo! cooloo! qu' importe!

Thus punishment was clothed with divine authority. Effigies et signa. Images and standards, i.e. images, which serve for standards. Images of wild beasts are meant, cf.
