that a noble funeral was given him after the arrival of the fleet
at Genoa, which took place on the evening of the 16th October."
It was received with great rejoicing, and the City voted the
annual presentation of a pallium of gold brocade to the altar of
the Virgin in the Church of St. Matthew, on every 8th of
September, the Madonna's clay, on the eve of which the Battle
had been won. To the admiral himself a Palace was decreed.
It still stands, opposite the Church of St. Matthew, though it has
passed from the possession of the Family. On the striped

of that age, in excellent preservation, still commemorate Lamba's

* For the funeral, a MS, of Cibo Pecco quoted by Jacopo Doria in La Chiesa di
San Matteo descritta, etc., Genova, 186o, p. 26. For the date of arrival the poem so
often quoted :—
" De Uitover, a zoia, a seze di
Lo nostro ostel, con gran festa
En nostro porto, a or di sesta
Domine De restitui."
t S. Matteo was built by Martin Doria in 1125, hut pulled down and rebuilt by the family in a slightly different position in 1278. On this occasion is recorded a remarkable anticipation of the feats of American engineering : " As there was an ancient and very fine picture of Christ upon the apse of the Church, it was thought a great pity that so fine a work should be destroyed. And so they contrived an ingenious method by which the apse bodily was transported without injury, picture
and all, for a distance of 25 ells, and firmly set upon the foundations where it now exists." (Jacopo de Vara) iize in Muratori, vol. ix. 36.)
