A08874	An essay of the meanes hovv to make our trauailes, into forraine countries, the more profitable and honourable	Palmer, Thomas, Sir, 1540-1626.; Zwinger, Theodor, 1533-1588. Methodus apodemica.	1606 (1606)	STC 19156; ESTC S113921	84,643	147

of their Prince and parents For if it be a commendable point and duetie for a man to aske his Parents Tutor Master and Prince leaue to trauaile then is it the office of a man to desire the same at the hands of God who is the Souereigne of all those For without his pleasure and consent alasse where are our motions to any good acte or the meanes by which they are aduanced or preserued So that though this be the last considered of vs yet is it the first and best of all things to be respected and performed For since knowledge learning experience honour health prosperitie and all other blessings be the mediate or immediate gifts of God it is a foolishnes for any to perswade and blesse their owne actions without consulting with God the eternall reason that guideth all things to their proper endes yea the dereigled Trauailers to labour in vaine and for a punishment to returne home no better than when they went foorth and peraduenture in many things worse For as the obseruance of his reuealed will encourageth man to goe forward in all godlinesse and commendable actions so the neglect thereof maketh him taste of his secret iudgements prepared for the carelesse and wilfull breakers of his commaund and will Hitherto concerning the generall dueties before trauaile In the interim of trauaile there likewise resteth sixe generall obseruations of these Trauailers for the aduancement of their peregrination Whereof the first is to attempt nothing without consulting with their conscience and imploring the fauour of God that euery action may haue a promise of blessing and acceptation aswell among those with whom such shall liue as of their owne Prince and Countrey when happily they shall returne The neglect whereof openeth the gate to infinite dangers and euils For the feare of God which is an adiunct to this duetie serueth for a curbe to restraine all improuident violent courses that carie men into inconueniences and for a guide to aduise them of all things warrantable honourable and pleasing in the sight of God men and therefore it is requirable that these diligently euery day priuately conferre and consult with God in their spirits and prayers made vnto him The first thus regarding the stay of the soule so the second office respecteth the good health of the bodie whereof Trauailers are not to be carelesse improuident for he that dependeth on fortune exposeth himselfe to many deceits perils losse of time I therfore obserue three preuenters of mischiefes inconueniences to the safety health of Trauailers namely Diet Trauailing or Exercise and moderation of Passions First let the diet of euery man be so moderate as neither the ayre wherein such liue afflict them either with exceeding heate or cold the which in some countreys Trauailers shal meete with but by little and little accustome their bodies to endure the hardnes of the Countrey clime which to contrary bodies is very dangerous suddainly For which cause Auicen the notable naturalist auouched that if a Scythian should violētly in a very short space be trāsported into India either he would suddainly fall sicke or die the which he would not necessarily bee so be it he tooke time in trauaile by land or sea Neither let any continue long in those places where the aire is pestiferous vnlesse their bodies can away therwith For which cause the Cynicke Diogenes reioyced after his banishment that he made a good change to be exiled from Sinope a most piercing and sharpe ayre about the confines of the Euxine sea to liue afterwards in Greece And lastly let the diet of all men for eating drinking sleeping clothing and such like be answerable to euery ones nature that such may alwaies keep themselues in one temper if possibly Winter and Summer the which is the greatest preseruatiue of mans health The second preuenter of inconuenience of health is trauailing from place to place and dayly exercise when such are abiding in any place with moderation and respect For ouer-much labour distill the vitall and animal spirits which is most dangerous For the trauailing from place to place sixe things are to bee regarded First to haue in iourneying if neede require faithfull and honest guides and companions and in speciall cases let such change rayment with their guides Secondly let them of two wayes take the least dangerous and most passeable so as alwayes the neerest way is not the best to bee chosen Hereof the Germanes haue a saying Gut vneg vnih vnar nie krumb and wee haue a Prouerbe not much vnlike The farther way about the neerer way home Thirdly in long iourneys to be prouided of meat and drinke and such like prouisions Therefore those that passe thorow the deserts of Arabia Tartarie Persia Scythia and the Carouans of Swecia and Muscouie make large prouisions and for some passages as in the sea of Sande in Africa and other places men are guided by the Compasse standing in need of Pilots for the passage Fourthly to make prouision against the extreamities of heate and colde that in some places are outragious in which the seasons of the yeere are to be respected Wherefore he that will trauaile thorow Swecia and Muscouie on sleddes vnlesse he shall rub his nosthrils with the snowe and yee to recall and settle his motiue spirits he shall be in extreame danger to lose them thorow the excesse of colde And in the yeere 1498 of seuenty thousand Turkes that made an inrode into Muscouie fourtie thousand suddenly were frozen to death Whereupon the Turkes verily beleeue that the Polonians and Muscouites are defenced by the celestiall powers No person is able to trauell out of doores in the Troglodites land without shooes the ground is so scalding hote insomuch that they roste their meat by putting the same into a brasse vessell and setting it in the Sunne And in the kingdom of Naples and Champain the heat is so great and ayre so pestiferous during Iune Iuly and August till the first raine of September that the better sort will not trauaile though the King commaund them from home Let these suffice for Trauailers to beware thereof vnlesse vpon vrgent necessitie and with good respect Fiftly to be prouided against the rage of wilde beastes and of robbers the which by good companie is the safest way alwayes Lastly to arriue early at their Inne or baite and to looke that the chamber where such lodge be well seated and defended to haue in their chamber a Tinder boxe to light fire or candle and finally vnlesse need require to dissemble departure from the Inne Of this last a man cannot bee too carefull The third and last preuenter of sickenesse and censurer of health is passion which is quadruplex according to the foure complexions generall of men namely Mirth Sorow Anger and Patience the which remedie or continue euery distemperature of the mind And as per antiperistasin bodily discords are tuned

that Common Weale Moreouer if wealth abound let not such spend that lauishly wantonly or carelesly For that benefiteth not any much lesse strangers in a strange Nation especiall the religious the same being a scandall to their profession So in matters and affaires of the ciuill State let them not entermeddle nor be curious searchers into the secrets therof For being placed in a State only for zeale of Religion they must giue continuall shew of vertue and shunne euerie thing that may breed iealousie least that State into which they are receiued hold them rather for Spies then for Religious professors Neither let such bee noted for fayneants and idle persons for such corrupt an Estate And let them bee euer kinde and respectiue to the people with whome they are suffered to liue amongst rather sufferers of iniuries then offerers of any wrong to them neuer accepting Duello but by the permission of the Magistrate for capitall wrong Lastly that thorough no perswasion of their friends at home or of enemies abroad or of their owne tempting affections they goe about treacherously or rebelliously to practise or rise against their natiue Soueraigne in any sort howe vniust or vngodly soeuer their Prince be but rather seeke vnto God to turne his heart and to giue a peaceable returne home vnto them The last point we will briefly handle concerning their offices when they happily shal be recalled or permitted to returne in two obseruations First that howsoeuer the State stands affected it being permitted to them to haue libertie of conscience and priuate exercise of Religion Not to attempt or consent vnto any commotion insurrection or any such treasonable action but to carry loyall hearts towards the Prince and State not once publikely speaking or writing against the Ecclesiastical policie nor be strict and ouer-precise in things externall and indifferent but carrie respect vnto the times and late standing of things vsing all things to the glorie of God without offence or breach of conscience And considering that there is of most things a ciuill and superfluous vse let such retaine the Ciuill and construe euerie thing rather to the best and to edification then to preiudice the conscience of one another leauing the superstitious vseage to those that vppon good knowledge doe vse thē That other is the sociable peaceable carriage of euerie one to his neighbour seeking al occasiōs to encrease loue and mutu●l societie As concerning other things required in Trauellers let it be sough for in the Voluntarie trauellers which now offer themselues to be discoursed on being the proper subiect of our point in hand 3 Before wee enter into the listes of this matter there are some things considerable for there be some that go vnder the name of voluntarie trauellers moued out of their parents pleasure and will The callings of which may seeme equally lawfull no doubte so their parents performe their offices and haue them well guided instructed in the interim of their iourny for trauell to some bodies are as new birthes that beare them of dull mindes and sowre good quicke and sweete conuersing spirits and inclinations yea amendeth many imperfections of nature so as the lawfulnesse of the parents ende and purpose haue a lawfull pretence also Thus may the efficient and finall causes come foule one of another for the clearing of which confusion I iudge it needefull to consider a few words of the endes in generall that when the particular kindes of trauailers shall be mentioned their endes by implication may appeare Of endes lawfull there are two heades one Prime and principal the other Congruent and Secondarie The prime is diuine and spirituall That afterwards we may leade a more quiet contented and peaceable life to the honor and glorie of God with knowledge and vnderstanding And this no doubt ought to bee the first marke for euerie man to shoote at in this life that by doing the reuealed will of God euerie one may seek vnto himselfe the assurance of heauenly happinesse which is incomprehensible and eternall That other Congruent and Secondarie is agreeable also and fitting the calling of euerie particular being of two sorts Publike or Priuate The Publike is most honorable and should stirre vp euerie man with delight to vndertake trauaile for the good of ones Countrie Neither is the Priuate discommendable considering it giueth satisfaction or at the least sufficiencie to liue well and happily according to the humor of the world whereby it may be apparant that the motiues and ends of some are all one Moreouer seeing it may be doubted whether all persons may be included vnder the third ranke of Regular Trauellers and also whether all times be fitting for these to vndertake Trauaile And lastly whether euery age be congruent with these let vs in order cleare these three points To the first I obserue three Opposers to wit Nature which prohibiteth Infants and decrepit persons whose defect of vnderstanding and doting age pleadeth insufficiencie Imperfection others as fooles madde men and furious persons whose disabilities of minde are such as no hope can be expected for the one or other Lastly the Sex in most Countries prohibiteth women who are rather for the house then the fielde and to remaine at home then trauaile into other Nations but in speciall cases As touching the second what times are fittest for the voluntarie trauellers to goe in we must obserue a duple season either of their owne Countrie or of those whereinto they would trauaile Touching the first let none trauaile at those times when their Countrey is engaged with Ciuill or expecteth warres For to leaue the same in time of necessitie were vnnaturall and dangerous in the one case it being disparageable to leaue the Countrie when enemies inuade the same in the other case it may proue perilous to such many sundrie wayes And therfore that time is best whē ones Countrie is in peace and tranquilitie Touching the second that the seasons also of such Countries where into such trauaile ought to be regarded it belongeth to euery particular to make obseruance When he may reape most profit thereby in the shortest time namely the souldier when there are warres the Ciuilian or Lawyer when great matters are debated in Parliaments Vniuersities or disputations concerning points of equitie prerogatiue iurisdiction and such like The Diuine when any Generall or Nationall Councel is heald touching their profession The Mechanicke when such and such Artes and trades doe singularly florish c. Yet euerie man so trauailing must take heede how he goe into a Countrie that is iealous of his Prince and subiects which chaunceth euermore when Princes are enimies or when they haue intestine warres and factions that vse any policie to aduantage their partie Now the third and last is whether any age be congruent for these voluntaries This is a harde thing to resolue vpon for there may be reasons on

and that hath credence with the Prince that is magnanimous and more feared for his vprightnes thā hated for his policie according to Machiauel Fiftly being thus known vnto the Councel that he couet not special fauor after the guise of a sycophāt or after an ambitious maner of any other persons but that he make shew of a constant and an vnderstanding Gentlemen Moreouer though it be requisite to be thus generally knowen of all yet let such take heede to intrude into the friendship of any but with great respect and for good cause vsing modestie and sparingnesse euermore in reuealing of any thing obserued in trauaile vnlesse vpon demands and in vrgent causes and seldome any thing of a strange and incredible nature but to familiars and in priuate Lastly in our sixt point let our Trauailer from time to time procure of other Trauailers Merchants and others such things as they haue obserued for it is a thing impossible for one man to obserue all things fully in a small time required in trauailing to be knowen as we haue considered in the sixe generall points of knowledge comparing them with his owne as with such bookes as happily haue discoursed of them Finally let him plot to haue dayly intelligence if so be hee liue from the Court retired of euery accident forreine and domesticke in the Court Land and Citie by the which the obseruations made in trauaile shal be kept in continuall tilthe and being well husbanded shall occasion at the least sweete contentment the onely pleasure in the world which no worldling can obtaine if not aduancement in the State to doe more good than priuate persons in the Church and Common-weale which is the godly and proper ende of our trauaile and pilgrimage here on earth that thereby God may be singularly glorified the Prince serued the Common-weale and Church benefited and our selues prepared for a greater happinesse then can bee represented in any contentment in this life The which I hartily wish to be respected of all that intend trauaile and to all in all perfection FINIS Trauayling duple Regular trauailing Two orders of Trauaylers Regular Trauailers triple Foure things of Trauailers obserued Two moouing causes
