through maintenance and broken titles or by consenage of simple Gentlemen to make him their heire or by what hâ—rd title or unhonest meanes so ever for hee practizeth store of such and thinketh little of the reckoning after he had tried them likewâ—se to the uttermost touch and letten them out to such as shall gaine but little â—y the bargaine then goeth he and changeth the same with her Mâ—jesty for the best lands he can pick out of the Crowne to the end that hereby he may both eâ—force her Mâ—jesty to the defence of his bâ—d titles and himselfe fill his coffâ—rs with the fines and uttâ—rmost commodity of both the lands His licences do stand thus first he got licence for certaine great numbers of cloaths to be transported out of this land which might have beene an undoing to the Marchant â—ubject if they had not redeemed the same with great summes of mony so that it redounded to great daâ—mage of all occupied about that kind of commodity After that he had the grant for carrying over of barrell staves and of some other such like wares Then procured hee a Monopolie for bringiâ—g in of sweet wines oyles curranâ—s and the like the gaine wherof is inestimable He hâ—d also the forfeit of all wine that was to be drawn above the old ordinary price with licence to give authority to sell above that price wherin Câ—ptaine Horsey was his instrument by which meanes it is incredible what treasure and yearely rent was gathered of the Vintners throughout thâ— land To this adde now his licence of silkes and velvets which only were enough to enrich the Mâ—jor and Aldermen of London if they were all decâ—â—ed as often I have heard divers Marchants affirme And his licence of alienation of lands which as in part I have opened before serveth hâ—m not onely to excessive gaine but also for an extreame scourge wherewith to plague whâ—m he pleaseth in the Râ—ealm For seeing that wâ—thout this licencâ— no mâ—n can bâ—y sell passe or alienate aâ—y land thâ—t any â—aiâ—s may bâ— drawnâ— to that tenure as holden in â—hiefe of the Prince as commonly now most lanâ— mâ—y he calleth into quâ—stion whatsoever likâ—th him best be it never so cleare and under this colour not only enricheth himselfe without all mâ—â—sure buâ— râ—vengeth himselfe also wherâ— he wâ—ll without all order Here thâ— Lâ—wyer stood still a pâ—etty while biting his lip aâ—â—e werâ—â—stonâ—shed and thâ—n saiâ— Veâ—ily I have not heâ—â—â— so maâ—y and so appâ—rant things or so odious of any mâ—n thâ—t â—ver lived in our Common wealth And I marvaâ—le much of my Lord of Leycester â—hat hâ—â— Grandâ—â—thers fortune doth not move him much who lost his head in the beginning of Kâ—ng Henryâ—he â—he eighâ—s dayes for much lesse and fâ—wer offences iâ— the same kind committed in the time of Kâ—â—g Henry the seventh for he was thought to be the inventour of these pooliâ—gs and molestations wherewith the people were burthened in the latter days of â—he said King And yet had he great pretence of reason to alledged for himselfe in that these exactions were made to the Kings use and not to his albeit no doubt but his own gaine was also there Mâ—ster Stow writeth in his Cronicle that in the time of hâ—s imprisonment in the Tower he wrot a notâ—ble book intituled The tree of Common wealth which book the said Stow saith that hee hath delivered to my Lord of Leycester many years agone And if the said book be so notable as Master Stow affirmeth I marvile that his Lord in so many yeares doth not publish the samâ— for the glory of his ancestors It may be said the Gentleman that the secrets there in contained be such as it seemeth good to my Lord to use them onely himselfe and to gather the fruit of the tree into his owne house alone For if the tree of the Common-wealth in Edmund Dudlis book be the Prince and his race and the fruits to be gathered from that tree bee riches honours dignities and preferments then no doubt but as the writer Edmund was cunning therein so have his two followers Iohn and Robert well studied and practized the same or rather have exceeded and farre pâ—ssed the authour himselfe The one of them gathering so eagerly and with such vehemency as he was like to have broken down the maine boughâ—s for greedinesse the other yet plucking and heaping so fast to himsâ—lfe and his friends as it is and may be most jusâ—ly doubted that when they have cropped all they can from the tree left them by their father Edmund I meane the race of King Henry the seventh then will they pluck up the Stemme it self by the rootes as unprofitable and pitch in his pâ—ace another Truâ—ke that is the line of Huntington that may bâ—gin to feed a new with fresh fruits againe and so for a time content their appetites untill of gatherers they may become trees which is their finall purpose to feed themselves at their own discretion And howsoever this be it cannot be denied but that Edm. Dudlis brood have learned by this book and by other meanes to be more câ—nning gatherers then ever their first progenitor was that made the book First for thâ—t he made profession to gather to his Prince though wickedly and these men make demonstration that they have gathered for themselves and that with much more iniquity Secondly for that Eâ—mund Dudley though hee got himselfe neare about the tree yet was he content to stand on the ground and to servâ— himselfe from the tree as commodity was offered but his children not eâ—teeming that â—afe gâ—thâ—ring will needs mount aloft upon the tree to pull croppe and riflâ— at their pleasure And as in the second poiâ—t the Sonne Iohn Dudley was more subtâ—le then Edmund the Father so in a third point the Nephey Robert Dudley is more crafty then â—hey both For that hee seeing the evill successe of those two that went before him hee hath provided together so much in convenient time and to make himselfe therewith so fat and strong wherein thâ— oâ—her two failed as he will never be in danger more to be callâ—d to any accompt for the same In good faith Sir quoth the Lawyer I thanke you heartily for this pleasâ—â—t discourse upoâ— Edmund Dudleis tree of Common-wealth And by your opinion my Lord of Leycester is the most learned of all his kindred and a very cunning Logitioâ—er indeed tâ—at can draw for himselfe so commoâ—iouâ— conclusion out of the perillous premâ—ssâ—s of his progenitors No marvail quoth the Gentleman for that his L. is Master of Art in Oxford and Chancelour besides of the same Vniversity where he hâ—th store as you knâ—w of many fine wits and good Logitioners at his commandement and whâ—re he learneth not only the rules and art of cunning gathering but for the very practize as I hâ—ve touched before seeing there

wit it seemes impossible By drinkes or charmes this worke to passe to bring Know then that Giges were invisible By turning the sigill of his Ring Toward his palme and thereby slew the King Lay with his wife of any man unseene Lastly did raigne by marrying with the queene King Salomon for Magick naturall Was held a cunning man by some Divines He wrote a booke of Science naturall To bind ill Spirits in their darke confines He had great store of wives and Concubines Yet was a Sacred King this I inferre The wisest man that now doth live may erre Also yee say that when I waxed old When age and time mispent had made me dry For ancient held in carnall Lust is cold Natures defect with Art I did supply And that did helpe this imbecility I us'd strong drinks and Oyntments of great price Whose taste or touch might make dead flesh arise To this I answer that those fine extractions Drams and electuaries finely made Serv'd not so much to helpe veneriall actions As for to comfort nature that 's decaid Which being with indifferent judgment weigh'd In noble men may be allowed I trust As tending to their health not to their lust What if I drinke nothing but liquid gold Lactrina christal pearle resolv'd in wine Such as th' Egyptians full cups did hold When Cleopatra with her Lord did dine A trifle care not for the cost was mine What if I gave Hippomenes to drinke To some fair Dames at smal faults you must wink Ye say I was a traytor to the Queene And thâ—t when Monsieur was in greatest grace I being out of favour mov'd with spleene To see a Frenchman frolique in the place Forth toward Barwick then did post apace Minding to raise up a rebellious rout To take my part in what I went about That I was then a traytor I deny But I confesse that I was Monsieurs foe And sought to breake the league of amity Which then betwixt my Prince and him did grow Doubting Religion might be changed so Or that our Lawes and customes were in danger To be corrupt or altered by a stranger Therefore I did a faction strong maintaine Agâ—inst the Earle of Sussâ—x a stout Lord On Monsieurs side and then Lord Chamberlain Who sought to make that nuptiall accord Which none may breake witnesse the sacred Wordâ— But thus it châ—nced that he striv'd in vaine To knit that kâ—ot which heaven did not ordaine Thus did ye mis-interpret my conceiâ—s That for disloyalty my deâ—ds did blame Yet many men have laid their secret baits T' intrap me in such snares to work my shame Whom I in time sufficiently did tame And by my Soveraignes favour bore them downe Proving my selfe true Liegeman to the Crowne Thinke yee I could forget my Soveraigne Lady Thâ—t was to me so gracious and so kinde How many triumphs for her glory made I O I could never blot out of my minde What Characters of grace in her have shin'd But some of you which were by her pâ—efer'd Have with her bones almoâ—â— her name inter'd When she was gone which of you all did weep What mournfull song did Pâ—ilomela sing Alâ—s when she in deaths cold bed did sleep Which of you all her dolefull knell did ring How long wâ—ll yee now love your crowned King If you so soon forget your old Queen dead Which foure and fourty yeares hath governed Yee say I sought by murder to aspire And by strong poyson many men to slay Which as ye thought might crosse my high desire And â—loud my long expected golden day Perhaps I laid some blocks out of my way Which hindred me from comming to the Bower Whâ—re Cynthia shin'd like lamps in Pharohs tower Alas I came not of a Tygers kinde My hands with bloud I hated to defile But when by good experience I did finde How some with fained love did me beguile Perchance all pitty then I did exile And as it were against my will was prest To seek their deaths that did my life detest Lo then attend to heare a dolefull tale Of those whose death yâ—e doe suppose I wrought Yet wish I that the world beleeve not all That hath of me by envious men been wrought But when I for a Kingly fortune sought O pardon me my sâ—lfe I might forget And cast downe sâ—me my state aloft to set My first wife fell downe from a paire of staires And brake her neck and so at Comner dy'd Whilst her true servants led with small affaires Unto a Fure at Abingdon did ride This dismall hap did to my wife betide Whether yee call it chance or destiny Too true it is shâ— dâ—d untimely dye O had I now a showrâ— of teares to shed Lockt in the empty circles of my â—yes All could I shed in mourning for the dead That lost a spouse so young so faire so wise So faire a corps so foule a coarse nâ—w lies My hope t' have married with a famous Queene Drave pitty back and kept my teares unseene What man so fond that would not lose a Pearle To finde a Diamond leave brasse for gold Or who would not forsake a gallant gitle To win a Qâ—een great men in awe to hold â—o rule â—he â—tate and of none be control'd O but the stâ—ps that lead unto a â—hrone Aâ—e dâ—ngerous for men to tread upon Tâ—e Cardinall Chatillion was my foe Whose death peradventure did compact Because he let Queen Elizâ—beth to know My false report given of a former act How I with her had made a precontract And the great Princes hope I bar'd thereby That sâ—ught to marry with her Majesty The Prelate had bin better held his tongue And kist his holy Fathers feet in Rome A Masse the sooner for his soule was sung But he might thanke me had he staid at home Or late or never he to heaven had come Therefore I sent him nimbly from the coasts Perhaps to supper with the Lord of hosts When death by hap my first wives neck had crackt And that my suit unto the Queene â—ll sped It chaâ—ced that I made a post contract And did in sort the Lâ—dy Sheffâ—â—ld wed Of whom I had two goodly children bred For the Lord Sheffeild died as I was sure Of a Catarie which physicke could not cure Some thinke thâ— rhume was artificiall Which this good Lord befoâ—â— his end did take Tush what I gave to her was naturâ—ll My plighted troth yet some amends did make Though her at length unkinde I did forsâ—ke She must not blame me for a higher reach Made my sure promise finde a sudden breach The valiant Earle whom absent I did wrong In breaking Hymeneus holy band In Ireland did protract the time too long Whilst some in â—ngland ingled under hand And at his coming homeward to this land He dyed with poyson as they say infected Not without cause for veâ—geance I suspâ—cted Because this fact notorious scandall bred And â—or I did his gallant wife abuse To salve â—his sore
