Seater

Seater

was an idol of our Saxon ancestors, and was represented in the form of the figure annexed. First, on a pillar was plac’d a pearch, on the sharp prickled back of which this idol stood. He was represented of a lean visage, with long hair and a long beard, bare headed and bare footed. In his left hand he held up a wheel, and in his right hand he carried a pail of water, wherein were flowers and fruits. His long garment is girded with a towel of white linen.
His standing on the sharp fins of a fish was to signify that the Saxons, for their serving him, should pass stedfastly and without harm in dangerous and difficult places: by the wheel was intimated the strict unity and conjoin’d concord of the Saxons and their concurring together to run one course; by the girdle which the wind streamed from him was signified the Saxon freedom; by the pail with flowers and fruits was intimated that with kindly rains he would nourish the earth to bring forth fruits and flowers; and from him our Saturday takes its name; some suppose Seater to have been the same with the Saturn of the Romans.
