F. P.

him back his gifts againe In others they had good vse as when Fabius Maximus bestowed on Marsus a valiaÌ„t souldier no very great gifts to keep in very great spirits The antient boone of Leuidense none begs which was a warme but light yet coÌ„mon garment Many now craue in many places not so much for want of sufficient as because though they know some haue more then inough yet they would bee loath to haue lesse then theyr fellowes striuing as Otacilius did to equall Torquatus of whom it is written that as the ox burst the toade so the one of them would split in emulation of the other vt bos ranam rumperat olim sic puto Torquatus rumpet Otacilium Milesius was wont to say there was no such way to make a man quietly suffer aduersity as the knowledge that his enemy was in worse prosperity and think you that emulatioÌ„ in this works not as much as in the other malice For this cause did the brethren of Ioseph sell the son of Iacob vnto the Arabian merchants For the other did Casselius find out that a Pyne tree nut was an apple if it were to be thrown at Vatinius his enimies head Horace bestoweth much description vpon those who wold haue none so great as theÌ„selues and tels the tale of the toade vituli pede pressus who told her dam when she saw her swell to be as great as the calfe Non si te ruperis inquit Par eris But though it were vnfit in kings causes Martials counsell to Flaccus was vnhappy which aduised to keep that to himselfe which hee had purposed amongst others when as the offence of many who should not get was dangerous the bestowing vpon al burdensom Demeruisse duos votum est offendere plures vix tutum Cunctis mittere dona graue Our Soueraigne as his goodnesse is great so his rewards his gifts his aduancements haue not bin smal Tully had not so great cause to brag of his Quaestorship well discharged in Sicily when he came home to Rome as some giue shew of our Soueraigns bounty who passe from one of you to another Howsoeuer it may truly be said it hath rather bin a Royall king then an yeares Magistracy yet performed hath aduanced Tully to salute Roome so glorified from Sicily so enuyed at home Take it not ill then Tully if no body at Roome woulde talke to thee of thy Quaestorship of the news of thy cariage wherin thou thoughtst to haue found all men full And why should not such gifts as they cary be bestowed by him who hauing long staied for power ought now only to affect glory and good will PriÃ¹s said Antigonus mihi opus erat potentia nunc verÃ² gloria et beneuolentia What other humane indeauour hath this worthy king more seriously taken in hand then the benifiting of his the countries friends the recoÌ„cilemeÌ„t agreemeÌ„t of the enemies of both whereof the one as they were made vp partely by his loue to his country his desire to honour it to aduaÌ„ce hir faln nobility to requite such as had deserued best of her to giue many more then theyr own since the country had so gladly giuen him his own partly by those he brought with him who had some of them bin rescuers of his life som extraordinary assistants of his estate others such as he could not but reward here for seruices performed there where memory was the rewarde hee cold properly giue was all in their honors they would willingly take So enimies to kings do oftnest grow either by waÌ„t of what ambition made them desire or for lacke of what expenses had drawn into waste Els some somtimes affect what blind zeal makes them think fit or fals iudgement rather false harts will not let them see pertinent proper But as his Maiesty hath no more then was fit rewarded the first vnlesse they can say to him as the yong man saith in Terence Nescis quid mihi obtigerit you cannot tell Sir what hath lighted vpon me So hath he mercifully spared the other insomuch that he hath neither coÌ„fiscated them as Tiberius the Emperor did the kings of Spaine Sicily Greece ob leue impudensque calumniaruÌ„ genus for any light or shamefull kind of slander nor fined them as Cassius did Sylla Calphurnius from one of whom he took quinquagies sestertiuÌ„ froÌ„ the other sexagies Himselfe being for any riot he is addicted vnto as free froÌ„ waÌ„t either of ought belonging to himself or for his couetousnes froÌ„ need of any thing others possesse But either at pe titions of faire Ladies none offenders or for som respects laid before him by his wiser Nobility either else for pure inclinatioÌ„ vnto mercy hath benefited Sylla been steward of his estate kept others vp who would haue kept others downe Thanks to so high discerning which found that when Soueraigntie could not represse liberty benefits could more strictly then treason take it prisoner Nor hath hee yet inflicted so much as exile vpon any of them knowing it a banishment that they forsooke his iustice And that he detaineth them is out of his mercy for boulder were they and of better countenaÌ„ce could they be when each had his discontent then now when they haue proofe in themselues the world sees it apparaÌ„tly how vnworthily they had placed it Marcellus the Ciuilian wrighting vpon a booke of the Digestes shewes three kindes of banishment either from certaine places or from al places besides certain either else a coÌ„fining to some Iland And though all these be vpon them yet they had nothing of this punishment did not one certaine place restraine them may they be confined to an IlaÌ„d if further mercy shall deliuer further occasion shal not imploy them that Iland so prepared the one by their Soueraignes grace the other in his prudeÌ„ce they are not only like to be inlarged to a country but find their country inlarged to them Touching whome pittie is it they rather were not free for this argument then bound by the other offeÌ„ce There are of them whose births courages blouds experiences and conditions as they were noble before they lost them so nobly could they haue spoken of this argumeÌ„t I hope by this time haue found much cause to bee much forward hereabout Yet is there one of theÌ„ wold bring much griefe vnto me though I wish him all good in his weldoing if he or his abettor his Steward or Protector or his faction so many as are of the olde haunce for his cause should be able to preiudice me more for compassion then I could draw safegard to my selfe by refraining euill desart laboring good merit But howsoeuer these some of them much vnhappy before in this estate at this time haue all tryed the Kings Maiesties grace in their seuerall particulars in that notwithstanding they haue beene absent from the true ioyes of their Countrey

say as Demetrius Phalerius said heu inquieta negotia actionesque nostras quorum causa hactenus tantum viruÌ„ nosse non licuit Well hath hee spent his time in this time who ere he was and worthily who wrote the tractate of the vnion wherein hee hath performed his taske and made his worke proue his title Many good lawes hath hee giuen vs to tye the vnion by For besides what he writes like a Philosopher lernedly of the Kings goodnes multipliciously let the soule of his Common-wealth be tryed and you may easily discerne whether iudgement can or ought recommend his worke to a Parliament to be made an Acte of yet since he will needes trye his owne inference by his owne applications wee will likewise examine his whole worke by the rule of his owne inuention And first what coÌ„science can beleeue that he who could not be drawne to meddle with clannes in Scotland would be content to abet a faction in England These factions were of heate and as they drew bloud so sooner teÌ„pted the bloud made the motiues more strong the partakers more passionate wheras in factions cold discretioÌ„ can abide much pause the time giuen for respite giues it selfe a meanes for determinatioÌ„ of vprightnes What conscience can beleeue that he who by the English bloud in a Grand mother got three kingdoms will not as much loue the English as the Scottish by whoÌ„ he had but prefermeÌ„t to one what coÌ„science can perswade it self that he who hath ad uaÌ„ced many here without desart towards himself will not continue his honors for daily seruices for his own behoofe performed what reasoÌ„ can deny that the quiet we now enioy riches by that quiet may not both be encreased when our kingdom shall be abroad more feareful the more haÌ„ds shal bring the greater profits into the land what reason can pierce into that no reason hath diued into to take Gods prouidence away from coÌ„tinuing what only by his prouidence he hath setled To a worke diuine adde not thoughts humane what reasoÌ„ can discerne that men long combined shall not rather holde together theÌ„ men neare in oportunities held off farre for sleight seeming respects And do any examples teach that richer subiects are not more fearefull of offending lawes teach any examples that men by nature fight language condition occasion vnited are vnunited by vnioÌ„ Or teach any exaÌ„ples that Monarchies well setled cannot represse any ils as they are growing wel hath he ther fore taught you to settle preuention where domestiquely ye gouerne not FraÌ„ce Spaine haue their moments to be coÌ„sidered further theÌ„ into this our owne is to be looked The one he tels you hath a custome the other a pretext against EnglaÌ„d shal England refuse aide against them all others wheÌ„ God ordinarily extraordinarily offers it not obscurely TheÌ„ increase none helps England be thou my countrey vnthankful care not if Scotland stand as Ireland fell disvnite Wales as not needing it seek abroad for friends though they be Turkes maintaine others quarrels to preserue your own safeties set vp garisoÌ„s againe make new Lords of Marches draw more from the rich froÌ„ the poore what they only haue acte or exact as if it were the last acte liue as poore as Spaine yet haue none Indies as vncertaine as Italy but lesse friended and fruitfull desire helpe one day who may giue helpes now cry out then when your own haue lost you they who are vpoÌ„ you shall not know your language Then may you war like the Switzers when other Countries who haue imbraced what you refused shall enioy with scorne of you what you held and might haue held before them and them to either in dearenes or at their deere rate My natiue countrey I craue pardon for my boldnesse zeale hauing transported me as farre into passion of after successes to be doubted if this stand thus doubtfull as I hope it is to their surmises euent who deeme that for want of issue in this Kings loyne the two Countries may againe be seperated though this now be embraced But let me be tryed whether I perswade honest things I hope my vehemency shall not be imputed faulty Soone do they breake vpon fit occasion who are too soone repelled for no knowne cause Why should not we wish them so wel as our Lawes why shuld we wish our selues so ill as their not being one with vs Many will be the marriages in time to make our Nations fully one as many are the houses they bring in with them of our own What was it made the Romans and the Sabines friends but the Romanes getting to wiues the Sabines daughters they tooke them by violence these haue opportunitie for loue and thinke you we shal spare to goe for marriages into Scotland when their daughters shall bee rich to maintaine vs in England Thinke you many thousand occasions will not make vs enterchange if this one occasion had but made the Kings roade to the rest Be of courage therefore honourable Cities and your friends of all qualities and bee what you are such an Iland as were a world to you knew

larger the Iland the nobler the Nation and who knoweth not that Concordia res paruae crescunt discordia maximae dilabuntur leaue not these faggot stickes out of your band these arrowes out of your

repent The people to be called by the name of the Countrey is but Cognatum vocabulum rei Now is this vnion on foote much hath beene said therein much written thereupon Our Kinges affection is setled thereto All these will do hurt if this now do not good If any should gesse many the meanes which should debarre inconueniences to come are now already taken from our good he may haply fall into their opinion who haue deemed either this should haue begun with the vnsetling of the rest or with the setling of this onely expedient the other haue beene vnsetled hand in hand They were onely the Fpicures
