thirde wyfe of the same Emanuell was Eleonour sister to the Emperor Charles the fifte by whome he had two children to wit Charles who dyed in his infancie and Marye who also deceased and was neuer marryed When the sayde Emanuell was deceased Iohn the thyrde of that name his eldest sonne succeeded him in the kingdome as is aforesayde who by Katherine his wife had manye children the whiche dyed all in their infancyes except Prince John and Marye The whiche Marye marryed Phillip nowe King and then prince of Castile and dyed before her sayde husbande came to his Crowne leauing one onelye sonne whose name was Charles Whome as the fame thereof is constante his father King Phillip commaunded to bee put to death in pryson When Prynce Iohn came to the age of sixteene yeere hee married Jane the daughter of the sayde Emperour Charles and dyed aboute one yeare after leaving his wife greate with childe who in the sixte monethe after the death of her husbande brought foorth a sonne whose name was Sebastian whiche yong Prince when hee came to aboute the age of foure yeares succeeded in the kingdome by and after the death of the sayde Iohn the thirde his Graundfather by the fathers side Now when King Sebastian was come to the age of foure and twentye yeares vppon the intreatye and solicitation of Mulei Mahumet Kinge as hee pretended of Fez and Marrocos who by Mulei Maluco his brother was expelled and driuen out of his kingdome the sayde King Sebastian at the last determined to passe into Affryca with a greate and puissant Armye to restore this Mulei Mahumet to his kingdome And for the better accomplishmente thereof hee prayed his vncle King Phillip of Castile to voutchsafe some ayde vnto him in that beehalfe The King of Castile graunting this petition promised to ayde him with fiftye Gallyes well appointed and furnished and foure thousand armed souldyours King Sebastian trusting thereunto with all care and dilligence prepared his armye wherewith in the monthe of Iune 1578. hee departed from Lisbone and came to a porte of Castile neere the streighte of Gibraltare called el puerto de Sancta Maria where hee stayed certayne dayes for the Gallyes and menne whiche the Kinge of Castile had promised to sende vnto him But the Kinge of Castile vnder pretence that the greate Turke prepared an Armye for that yeare not onelye denyed to performe his promise but also that is farre woorse caused a proclamation to bee made and published thorowoute all Spayne subiecte to his Iurisdiction whereby all his subiectes were commaunded vppon greate pennalties that none of them shoulde accompanye Kinge Sebastian in that Voyage whereof certaynelye there can no other coniecture bee gathered sauing onely that the king of Castile by his vnmesurable ambition insatiable desire to haue dominion neither coueted nor hoped for any other thing then onely that the yong prince king Sebastian his nephew for want of sufficient force should be ouerthrown and come to destruction in the same Iourney so as thereupon the said king of Castile might by that meane haue oportunity to ioyne the kingdome of Portugall to his kingdome of Castile as it came to passe Neuerthelesse the saide king Sebastian being a prince of greate magnanimitie when hee had all thinges in a readinesse and employed infinite expences vpon the furnishing of this armie whiche was aboue a thousand Saile determined to pursue his voyage and ariued in Affrica and there landed all his armie amounting to about fifteene thousand fighting men Thereupon in the end hee came into a plaine fielde whiche beareth the name of Alcazar where the fift day of August in the same yeare was fought a great and terrible battaile betweene him and the enemie wherein the said yong king Sebastian was not onelye ouercome but also slaine in the field together with Mulei Mahumet whose parte he tooke at what time neyther did Mulei Maluco the king that fought against them escape For he in the time of the battaile being sicke and wearye of sitting his horse was remoued into his horselitter and there dyed during the battaile A battaile certainlye worthie to be had in remembraunce for in the same dyed three kinges together in one daye as in lyke manner there were slaine in the same aboue sixe hundred of the cheefest of the Lordes and gentlemen of the kingdome of Portugall besides the common souldiers the most wherof were slaine in the battaile and the rest taken prisoners amongst whiche number Don Anthonio of whome this booke specially treateth was one of the Captiues Further there be certaine persons who affirme that after the death of the sayde king Maluco there was found in his pocket a letter written vnto him from king Phillip wherein he assured king Maluco that king Sebastian nephew of the saide king Phillip shounde haue no ayde at his handes whereby may be perceaued agreat vnfaithfullnes of king Phillip against his owne blood Now when as by the death of king Sebastian the linage of king Iohn the third his grandfather by the fathers side was vtterly extinct it must follow of necessity if collateral succession take place in this behalfe that recourse must be had to the linage of the said Lodowike as seconde sonne of the aforenamed king Emanuell Whiche Lodowike as is afore aleaged had one onelye sonne called Don Anthonio who therefore his lawfull byrthe presupsupposed was the onelye lawfull and rightfull successor of the kingdome But it fell so out that while he in the said discomfiture of Affrica was taken prisoner and there remained captiue howbeit vnknowne of the enemie as it was alwaies before that tyme vnknowne yea and that also to Don Anthonio himselfe that hee was the legittimate sonne of the said Lodowike Henry the Cardinall his vncle the fift issue male of King Emanuell was preferred to the kingdom being then a very old man within a little while after by a wonderfull meane or rather by the prouidence of God the sayd Don Anthonio about forty daies after the losse of the battaile was deliuered out of captiuitie and returned into Portugall where he was with great ioy receaued not onely by King Henry but also by all the nobilitie and principall gentlemen of the countrey and most chiefly and principally by the common people For hee was beloued of all men as well in respect of his noble and excellent disposition of mynde as for the singular and rare vertues of his sayde Father Lodowike which most cleerely shined in him Within a fewe dayes after Don Anthonio was arriued at Lysbone the metropolitan Citie of the kingdome he was aduertised by one of his father Lodwikes ancient seruantes who was a man of good callinge and approued integritie that his father Lodowicke as is afore mencioned in this treatise was secretlye married to the said Iolenta And howe there were diuerse credible witnesses yet liuinge that could testifie the trouthe therof And besides that dyuerse men of good credit calling had expressed and declared
