in these deuices wayes and practices which they did publiquely attempt euen in our Court by those which did approach neere vnto them We thought good at the same instant when our Brother withdrew himselfe from vs to acquaint the Lady our Mother with the intelligence we had of all their practices and deuices which they vsed to our great prejudice and with our resolution which we had taken for the stopping of that course As namely to take into hold and durance some persons which we knew to participate in their designes and to banish the rest from our Court. Also we desired entreated her to this end to assist vs with her best counsell as formerly shee had done within these few yeares and to leaue separate her selfe from all the secret intelligences which she had or might haue with our foresaid Brother who was then departed from vs. We persisted in this our supplication euen to Campaguis where we made knowne vnto her diuers other instances by our trusty and welbeloued the Lord Chastean-newf Keeper of the Scale and our trusty and welbeloued Cousen the Marshal de Schomb●rgh vnto both which shee answered that shee was weary any longer to intermeddle with our affaires that she would no more haue any share nor be partaker with our Counsels which caused vs too too confidently to vnderstand and beleeue the firme resolution which she had taken to remaine linked and joyned to the designes of our said Brother and to follow and be led by the pernicious counsels which were giuen him Whereupon we resolued and determined to separate our selues for a while from her and to entreate her to withdraw herselfe and retire to Moulins a place which properly belongs vnto her and which place during the time of our minoritie shee voluntarily chose for her owne abode Vnto this she gaue answer that then she would willingly goe thither but a few dayes afterward shee requested vs to thinke it expdient and fitting that shee might betake her selfe to Neuers Which she was so much inclining vnto and did affect because she had a desire to approach and draw neerer to our said Brother who was then as yet at Orleans A while after this learning and perceiuing that our said Brother in his proceedings vsed many deuices and cunning practices striuing and endeauouring to assemble together many warlike troupes wee inuited him by our welbeloued Cousin the Cardinall de Valette to absent and separate himselfe from all those wicked counsels and to returne againe to vs where we promised him that he should receiue all good and fauourable contentment which he refusing to doe and to haue correspondencie and to joyne with our good meaning and intention we journyed as farre as Eltampes where presently we were informed that he was departed from Orleans so to retire and leaue our Kingdome where he was no sooner departed but our said Mother sent vs word that shee would no longer goe either to Moulins or Neuers and that shee desired not to depart out of Champaguie and at the very same time shee and our said Brother did deuise and effect to publish and divulge this rumour that shee was detained in prison notwithstanding shee had all liberty afforded her with her traine either to goe to Moulins or Neuers although in those places there was no Garrison But as this supposed imprisonment serued for a pretence of discontentment vnto those that waited for such an occasion and opportunity so she continued this false complaint notwithstanding that daily our Cousin the Marshall Destree and also the Lord Marquesse of St Sch●●●●out did aduertise her in our behalfe which two wee haue many seuerall times sent vnto her that shee would bee pleased to depart out of Campagnie and to chuse such a place within our Kingdome as shee should thinke most fitting for her abiding offering her to the end shee might abide there with the more respect and authority the gouernment of that Prouince into the which shee would betake her selfe forthwith declaring and making known vnto her that her remaining still in Champagnie gaue vnto vs great cause of jealousie suspicion forasmuch as we were certainly enformed they did perswade her to depart out of our Kingdome vnto which shee would no way condescend nor thereby be perswaded faining many causes of complaint as among others that we would haue sent her vnto Italie and that our Gallyes were ready prepared for the same purpose Then wee sent vnto her our said Cousin the Marshall of Shombergh and the Lord de Roissye Counsellor in our Councell of State to desire her to conforme her selfe to our will and pleasure and to resolue with herselfe to depart out of Champagnie and to choose such a place within our Kingdome which shee might like of for her dwelling onely Champagnie excepted To the end that those pretences might cease of those who had entised our said Brother to forsake our Kingdome and that they might not haue so much as any appearance to ground their reports vpon of our Mothers imprisonment Nay which is more they two in our name proffered vnto her the gouernment of Anion which shee complained shee was bereaued of and that the same was taken from her although indeed shee had of her owne accord abandoned the same for some considerations best knowne to her selfe They vrged also vnto her and shewed her that it was very requisite for the good of our affaires and that it would proue very aduantagious to her selfe if shee would be pleased to conforme her selfe to our will and intentions But whatsoeuer reasons they could lay before her it was impossible to diuert and draw her from her strong resolution which shee had taken to abide in Champagnie for to bring to passe the designe which since that time shee hath executed Notwithstanding all this her resistance to testifie more and more our affection towards her and the earnest desire wee haue to re-unite her vnto vs we caused those troupes to be remoued which we had left in Champagnie and since that did diuers times send to her our said Cousin the Marshall Destree and the Marquis de St Shanmont to reiterate the request which so often we had made vnto her that shee would choose any other place than Champagnie for her abode Yea we proffered her to come and visite her in her house at Monceana or some other place in the way to Blois Anger 's or Moulins if shee went thither to the end that wee might be reconciled together This in appearance shee seemed to agree vnto and willing to embrace which gaue vs great contentment and abundant satisfaction supposing that this also was the way to reduce our said brother to his deuoir and to remoue all those pretences which the foresaid euill Authors of bad counsell did make vse of But when wee beleeued that our said Mother was well contented with vs and was most ready and willing to follow our good intention which wee had for our common good
