flounders floucke plaice or carpe here is a miserable warke that Englande must abide to maintaine Spanishe pride ye paye youre tenthes for all these thinges but I speake not of churche rentes nor balifes fees for that is but the tenthe part but this shall greue your harte to pay the thirde part more that burthen waieth sorer then fines or reÌ„ts tak hede therfore Ye wil think their coÌ„meÌ„s be not so opprest there is not a ye man farmer nor husbande man in these partes that dare eate a capoÌ„e in his own house if his frende come to viset him but the capoÌ„e must cost him a noble if it wer worth xx peÌ„ce and euen so of hennes pigges geese chickins â–ª and all other thyngs Dooe ye thinke to make prouises for all these mischefes which I haue rehearsed the best prouiso ye can deuise to make is that for the auoiding of all these and innumerable moe mischefs ye kepe the crowne in youre owne handes and geue it to no forreyne prince For when the king is crowned who dare withstand his doings doe not the lawes of Englande bind al men to obeie him but seing thei vnderstande not our lawe maye not the kinge chaunge it as shall seeme good for him by the aduise of his couÌ„sel I nede not to feare the daunger of my boke for I heare say I shalbe outlawed with a pension writte for .iii yeres pension in cliffords inne Do it spedely least it take none effecte for if Spaniardes beare rule fare wel all Englishe lawes the kiÌ„g will reach you Spanish lawes and looke what lawes Spaniardes make is not he a traitor that speaketh to the contrary but til his grace be crouned it is mete for all trewe men to holde with the right and speake against his coronacioÌ„ Ye say the quenes highnes hath al power in her hande we must obey her surely in actes that bee paste by parliament and coÌ„firmed by the hole realme we ought to obey her highnes during her life but I think there is no law confirmed and past where by the Quene may lawfully disinherite the realme of the crown And for that which is to come eueri man mai lawfully speake against it for she can make no such law without your aide Yf ye read the enchiridioÌ„ of Erasmus in the leafe lxxv ye shall finde that the Quenes highnes or any other Prince that wil folowe goddes commaundement and seke the kingdom of heauen ought not to make any lawes or statutes agaynste the commen wealth of her countr and that she ought not to doe that which she may by her power but that which she maye doe iustlye by the lawes of the realme For lyke as Christe was not borne for himselfe nor died not for himselfe but was borne to fulfil the law liued to teache vs the perfecte trueth of the law and died to redeme al those that woulde folow his steps and kepe his commaundementes eueÌ„ so the Quene ought not to do that thing which is for her own profet her own pleasure or her own pryuat commodite but that which is for the commodite of the whole countrey the profite of her poore people and the strength aide preseruacion and the comfort of the whole realme Her grace ought not to gouerne vs if she wil folowe Christe but to se vs gouerned vprightly in all spirituall maters after gods worde and in all temporall maters accordinge to the lawes of the realme iustlye for oure preseruacion In the .iiii. nexte leaues folowynge ye shall finde the offyce of a kynge a magistrate an officer and bishoppe I shewe you the place because ye shoulde remember it and folowe it in this case But if the Quenes grace wil not seke to winne heauen with folowing Christe and keping his order for the commodite and profet of all her people then she must without grace in breakeynge Christs order and leauing his steps without any seconde way folow the steps of the deuill and so seking her owne priuat commodite her owne wil her own pleasure ruÌ„ne straight headlong to hell Mary if the Quene be the last heire so that the crown remaine wholly perfectly and lawfully in her without any other discente she may by gods lawe geue it for the commen wealth of her subiects and the realme where or to whom soeuer pleaseth her and then if it be for the commen wealth of the realme as ye se plainly it is not she mai geue it to her graces husbande the kinge but if it belong to the heires of the realme after her death and if ther be any heires in Englande liuing after her to whom the crown oughte to come by iuste and lawefull descente she and all that geue her such cursed counsell doe committe deadlye and damnable sinne in taking and geuiÌ„g it from them wrongfully Yf ye could restore it againe afterwardes and so make them recompence she myghte haue pardon of god but I am sure the Quenes grace and all her honorable counsell haue seene the kinges style where he writeth himselfe kinge of xxviii kingdomes with Englande Fraunce and Yrelande and there ye perceue that he leaueth out the quen in all his writinges and deades whatsoeuer he maketh or confirmth And in the first leafe and first side of the patten or rather the Emperours will which he hath made to establishe the king iointly with him in the Empir they write that the kinge woÌ„ne englande by the Quenes mariage and vpon the seconde side of the saÌ„e first leafe they write that the king at this preseÌ„t hath autorite to make chauÌ„ge ordeine and constitute what decres statutes ordinauÌ„ces or lawes soeuer please him in the same kingdom of England Seeing the king hauynge but the name geuen him doeth take vpon him suche power and beeâ—ore he hath the crowne dooeth expulse the Queene from all title of the realme or the crown ye may be sure that when he hath the crown he wil take from her all power and honor sauing only she may haue the name to be his wife vvith his more beloued harlots so that she shall neuer be able to restore

readyng my foolyshe reasons yet geue God thankes that I haue discouered suche detestable treasons THere haue been certain pestiferous bokes and letters lately printed in Englyshe vnder the cloke of a

amongest the best of that nacion except the kiÌ„gs maiestie Ye wil say the noble men be very ciuill persons In very dede I haue not seen so muche vertue in all the reste as in that moste noble Prince the duke of Medenazelye A Prince vndoubtedly endewed with perfect humilite trueth loue charite and all other prince like vertues There be many other noble menne vndoubtedly very wise and politik which
