Polyphemus I doe not meane that which was done in the silence of a mournefull night at the Abbey of Saint Crosse albeit the noise therof redounded euen into the chamber of his Maiesty the Amnestia law of Obliuion hauing sent some part to death the graue another part to the gallowes bellies of Crowes the last to the curse of al coragious spirits but J would speake of the inhumanity of those two Brethren who violated the laws of Hospitality vpon the person of their Prince and Father Alas I meane the Treason of those two Esaues that made tender of presents to Our Iacob those two Athletes and daungerous Antees that wrastled with him in the mid-day time in close field with feete lifted vp and armes outstretched to bind and beare him to ground without any mercie where he being alone without any helpe but God onely who neuer forsooke him laboured them out of breath Whereby his very enemies are constrained to confesse that hee is verily elected of God and for the glory of his name In like manner As he went towards his Canaan to enioy the right of his first begetting it seemes the like should haue been done in England All Europe prepared their eyes to see the fall of that stately Monarchy the greatnesse wherof had compassed the whole Globe of the earth All the world ran to the bruising of that mighty Ship when it pleased God to look vpon vs with the eye of his mercy and defend vs from that fall by his most powerfull Arme. Whereby hee plainly declared to all the earth that he is the preseruer of Kings the God Tutelarie of kingdoms and the Patron of al Royall Estates He hath thereby also giuen a lesson to all Kings and Princes of the world that their raigning is by him onely and that it is an ouermuch boldnesse in any as shall seeke to exalt himselfe or grow great against his ordinance and expresse commandement But it is nothing to see him Monarke of the English as also endued with such authority power except we vnderstand withall by what means it was thus prouided for that is it wherin the blessing and wonderfull worke of God towards him is to be discerned For in the Papistes opinion the Lawes the Estates the Counsell the Citties the Country the great the small the rich the poore the young the old and all sexes should haue vniuersally refused him and denied him his right But heerein they were deceiued and the people better aduised as being more wisely experienced in affairs of the world They acknowledging his iust merit and being effectually instructed in the will and affection of good aged Rebecca his Mother Hereditatis they caused his sweet smelling sauour to bee felt of all and by their good example reformed the errour of diuers other So that all vnanimately or with one consent were in duty compelled to respect him and prostrate themselues before his Royall Maiesty The Clergy whom Pope and Papistes would haue had to doubt most earnestly desired him the Nobility that shuld haue left him chearefully elected him Iustice who should haue left him intirely imbraceth him the people who should haue fled from him do all seeke after him we may well say that he hath bin the vowes the desire and vniuersall wish of the whole kingdom yea in such maner that in despight of Popish malice Our King is as a fable reduced into an historie Qui tanquam lapis quem rebrobanerunt factus est caput anguli They that thoght to see him at their feet do acknowledge him to be their head they to whom he was as nothing at this day do loue honor him for their king A wonderful work wrought by the prouidence of God who in his strict and secret counsel kept it hid for a day to publish propose it then to mankind for euer and against the opinion of some enuious English to make him King of the English O happy English that haue no more women and children for your King but a King full of strength a king participating the verdure of his youth and ful ripenesse of his age O most happy to haue a King that loues you more then himselfe and desireth not to liue but for your preseruation O more thē thrice happy to haue a King among your selues who is natural vnto you who commeth not to raign by the furies of a mutinous multitude nor by the fauours of a blind fold Fortune but by the blessing of God and right of birth as wel by the Fathers side as the Mothers To abreuiate these maruayles there is no man ignorant but he wel knoweth that this kingdome had bin swallowed vp in an hideous Chaos the fift day of Nouember 1605. if the Diuine goodnesse had not appeared in such a need to this Great King euen like a new Starre at the breake of day to scatter the latest night that came to ouer-whelme vs. In which wonderfull deliuerance he hath euidently declared vnto vs that he will haue his Maiesty to liue and flourish more then euer heeretofore because he drew him out of this bottomelesse pit by raising vs such succour withour which he had vndoubtedly bin expired by such cruelties as the like were neuer heard of Quorū animus meminisse borret Luctuque refugit The heart abhorres remembrance tears flye from it Thus we see that the Authour of the Booke was fore-appointed of God by his name and person as long since was Cyrus whom he foresaw prouided and called by his name two hundred yeares before hee was borne to oppose him against Kings and Nations enemies to his word and people That verily and in effect by all the periods and paralelles of his life this is

our Maister Guillaume Let the Laurell wreaths be wrung out of their hands to impale the victorious head of our IAMES truely Triumphant ouer Pagan Idolatrie and Popish Heresie which is the subiect of this my present labour and the whole desseign of this discourse as appeareth in the Frontispice of the main building Thus are His Trophees gathered and limmed through by an vnexperienced Pensill in his victories deriued from the writing of his Royall Aduertisement This is the full ayme of mine intention Religious French-men and that which I desire to shew vnto you Deare Children of Heauen to the end that you may not suffer your selues to bee perswaded in the contrarie by the deceiuing Language subtle Arguings Sophistries and captious arguments of this Doctor Diuinity-destroyer and the discoursing Enthusiaste least of wise French-men you becom with them mad and insensed Galathians The very written book it selfe doth furnish vs with strength sufficient to vanquish and conuince all the answerers of the worlde and their answers not turning any one leafe of his book but it deliuereth many most expresse Texts of the holy Scriptures as many goodly places out of the holy fathers as many Canons of the chiefest Counsellers with many rich strong arguments and al set downe by his Maiesty It is to you Generous French-men that I speake this and to whom I desire to make it manifest for though the speaking or willingnesse to make it knowne to you of my Country should be but in me as lost labor yet must J needs speake it againe beeing no more but what you know what you haue seene and what hath bin published So many mouthes are as so many Trumpets of his greatnesse in great Brittaine so many hearts they are as so many Temples of his vertues and so many soules are as many Vowes and Sacrifices to his faire name Among them J am but as one voice yet now driuen to the vniuersall consort of the whol worlds voices For if my voice could bee vnderstoode from the East to the West from the North to the South nay if it could pierce from this low center of the earth to the highest circumference of the Jmperiall heauen I would cal al Noble Spirits to com to see Idolatry subdued and Heresie vanquished and I would entreate them to beeleue that which I say vnto you for an assured verity whereof Heauen Earth Men and Angels are faithfull and vnreprooueable witnesses My words do sauour rather of the salt of a pure affection then the Oyle of supple flattery My penne shal neuer be Ioabs Dagger to stab Abner backward My life is innocent my heart Christian My tongue to Scottish he is too good and wise a King to bee flattered by any But to accommodate my selfe to the ignoraunce of these insolents who haue made French answeres to a Latine Booke I shall labour to expresse my conceite of their Idiome and imitate as wel as I can the steppes of our French Orators Wherein I will loose no time for excusing my selfe either for my harsh and vnelegant language fearing the reply in elder time made by Cato vnto the Historian Albinus The courteous and Charitable Frenchman in considering the good and free will wherewith I march on in this matter and for his instruction will amiably correct the Errours of my Penne and the Presse which manie in like fauour haue amended in our Language In this affaire their blowes do touch vs their Iests and Sportes do inuite vs their Reasons do driue vs and their daily desires ought to mooue vs. But if any base and creeping soule if anie deiected spirite or if some Monke or Priest shall recreate his leysure by this writing and purge his salt soule of those foule slaunders breathed foorth with so many wry mouthes apish faces with such bending the browes and snuffes in the nose and which no doubt he will vse in reading this worke One Lawrell braunch of MY KING onely shall bee my Warrant from the sparkeling flashes of such false fires and his glorious Name shall serue me as the Shield of Minerua against all their impoysoned Arrowes of Nessus and Philocteres Let euery Momus Zoylus and all insenced Censurers examine this little Booke Letter by letter let them measure the Syllables weigh the Words controule the points and Virgulers let them peruse the Periods count the Pages and turne ouer the leaues I will protest onely for my Apology that I haue taken the Rule Squire Plummet and compasse in forming it only to enform them in a solid truth Wherefore cruell apprehensions bristle not vppe your haires against mee affrighted horrours seeke not to shake my soule anie more panicke terrours leaue my heart at large and my tongue at libertie to the end that I may bidde them Go out go out of Babylon flye from behind her Be not ouerthrowne in her iniquities But publish this with a loude voyce as a Song of
