Excerpt from The Influence of Anthropology on the Course of Political Science, Vol. 4 Ben. Elstracke, is of a cosmographic type which descends, for example, into the title-page of Heylin's Microcosmus a generation later; but which is seen here in its pristine glory. Four. Female figures, emblematic of Europe, Asia, Africa, and America, advance to do homage to James I, who sits enthroned, as he sits on Bodley's Tower in Oxford; and below are four posed warriors, in the weapons of their countries. America is represented by an obvious Aztec warrior in a peaked cap and coat of mail; but of the four women, America alone is nude: even Africa is partially draped in a mantle. The distinction is significant, for though Europe, Asia, and Africa all contribute to the contents of the book, America provides no example of a constitution at all: if it had any human inhabitants, they were, for Edward Grimstone, in a pre-social state.
