I have not implor'd his Divine assistance and never passed over day of my life since I arriv'd at the age of man without calling upon his Name and asking pardon for my sins And many times I can say with truth that upon sight of the Enemy I have found my self so possest with fear that I have felt my heart beat and my limbs tremble let us not make our selves braver than we are for every man upon earth apprehends death when he sees it before his eyes but so soon as I had made my prayer to God I felt my spirits and my strength return The prayer which I continually used from my fi●st entring into Arms was in these very words My God who hast created me I most humbly beseech thee to preserve my Iudgment entire that this day I may not lose it for it is thou that gavest it me and I hold it from no other but thee alone If thou hast this day appointed me to die grant that I may fall with the resolution of a man of honor which I have sought for through so many dangers I ask thee not my life for I desire nothing but what pleases thee Thy will be done I resigne all things to thy divine wisdom and bounty After which having said my little Latin prayers I declare and protest in the presence of God and men that I suddenly felt a heat creep over my heart and members so that I had no sooner made an end but that I found my self quite another man than when I began I was no more afraid and my understanding again return'd to perform its Office so that with promptitude and judgment I discern'd what I had to do without ever losing it after in any Engagement wherein I have ever been How many are departed this life who were they now living could witness if ever they saw me astonisht or lose my judgment in any action of war whether at an Assault or in any other Rencounter or Battel Messieurs de Lautrec de l' Escut de Barbezieux de Monpezat de Termes du Bié de Strozzy de Bourdillon de Brissac d' Angu●en de Boitieres and de Guise could have given testimony of me for they had all had me under their Command and have all seen me in a thousand and a thousand dangers without the least sign of fear or amazement Who could they again return to life would be good witness of the truth of what I have deliver'd and yet they are not all dead under whom and by whom I had the honor to serve and to be commanded who although they were much younger Captains than I it was nevertheless fit I should obey them Monsieur le Duc d' Aumale and the Mareschaux de Cossé and de Vielle Ville are of this number and I beseech you my noble Lords if my Book peradventure fall into your hands to do me right and declare whether what I have here deliver'd be true or false for you have been eye-witnesses of part of it and I fancie that after my death you will be curious to see what I have writ There are others also who are able to give me the lye if I have said ought but true namely Signior Ludovico de Biraga and Monsieur le President de Birague who never abandoned that brave Mareschal de Brissac Several others are yet living who have been my Companions in Arms and many others who have serv'd under my Command all which are able to affirm the truth of what I have said and whether whenever there was a debate about any Execution I did not alwayes think nothing impossible but on the contrary concluded things feasible which others concluded impossible to be effected I undertook it and brought it about having evermore that stedfast assurance in God that he would not forsake me but open the eyes of my understanding to see what was to be done to make my Enterprize succeed I never thought any thing impossible but the taking of Thionville of which the honor is to be attributed to Monsieur de Guise alone and in truth there was more of fortune than reason in that success though the said Sieur de Guise was ever confident he should carry it and so he did Fellows in arms how many and how great things shall you perform if you put your whole trust in God and set honor continually before your eyes discoursing with your selves that if it be determin'd you shall end your dayes in a Breach ' t is to much purpose to stay behind in the Graffe Vn bel morir sayes the Italian tuta la vita honora 'T is to die like a beast for a man to leave no memory behind him Never go about to deprive another man of his honor nor ever set avarice and ambition in your prospect for you will find that it will all come to nought and end in misery and disgrace I do not say this that I have any mind to play the Preacher but meerly out of respect to truth How many are there in the world who are yet living and whom I shall forbear to name that have had the reputation of valiant men and yet have been very unfortunate in their undertaking Believe me the hand of God was in this and though they might implore his divine ayd their devotion was not right which made the Almighty adverse to them If therefore you would have God to be assisting to you you must strip your selves of ambition avarice and rancour and be full of the love and loyaltie we all owe to our Prince And in so doing although his quarrel should not be just God will not for all that withdraw his assistance from you for it is not for us to ask our King if his cause be good or evil but only to obey him And if you are not rewarded for the services you have performed you will not stomack your being neglected by reason it was not your intention nor design to fight upon the score of ambition and greatness nor out of a thirst of riches but upon the account of fidelity and duty that God has commanded you to bear to your Prince and Sovereign You will rejoyce to find your selves esteem'd and belov'd by all the world which is the greatest Treasure a man of honor ought to cove● For great Estates and high Titles perish with the body but a good Reputation and Renown are immortal as the Soul I now see my self drawing towards my end and languishing in my bed towards my dissolution and 't is a great consolation to me that in spite of Death my name shall live and flourish not only in Gascony but moreover in foreign Nations This then is the end of my Book and of thus far of my life which if God shall please longer to continue to me some other may write the rest if ever I shall again be in place where I shall perform any thing worthy of my self which nevertheless I do not hope for finding

de Porrieres arriv'd the King sent for him into his Cabinet where after he had read his letters of Credence and his other dispatches finding therein no syllable of this affair and Monsieur de Porrieres making no mention of it neither his Majesty said to him And what Monsieur de Porrieres is Montluc heard of yet he has made a pretty piece of work on 't To which he made answer that he had left me at Rome whereupon the King proceeded and said that he knew that I had lost all the Popes Cavalry and was my self run away Monsieur de Porrieres was very much astonish'd at this news and replied that if this had hapned after his departure it might be so and yet he had been no more than nine dayes in coming His Majesty then made them look how long it was since this news came which they did and found it to be four dayes at which the King said he thought it was only a lye and Banker's news enquiring of Monsieur de Porrieres what piece of folly it was I had committed who thereupon made answer as he has himself told me since Sir I will tell you and I make no doubt but your Majesty will laugh at it at much as we did after which he related to him the whole story and what I had said at my return to the Mareschal de Strozzy Cardinal Caraffa and the Duke of Paliano at which I do assure you I have been told his Majesty laughed very heartily and more than he had been seen to do of a great while before as also did the Constable and all the rest that were present insomuch that I was told the King above eight dayes after seeing Monsieur de Porrieres said to him Well Porrieres has Montluc purchased those places about Paris and never call'd the story to mind but he laughed And as to what I say in my Book that for these hundred years never any man was more fortunate in War than I have been I pray examine and see if you will not acknowledge me to be so in these three occasions which in eight or nine dayes time befell me one after another besides several others you will meet with in this life of mine to have escaped without loss three such dangers which were no little ones A few dayes after the Duke of Alva understood that Monsieur de Guise was coming into Italy to succour the Pope which made him to retire his Camp a little nearer to the sea and afterwards he came and sate down before Ostia The Mareschal then march'd out of Rome with some Ensigns of Italians two of Germans and five or six of French but the Pope would by all means that he should leave him for his defence my Son Marc Anthony and Captain Charry with their Companies The Mareschal went then and encamp'd on this side the Ty●er over against Ostia where he entrench'd himself The Duke of Alva before his arrival had made his bridge and erected a Fort above Ostia on the same side where the Mareschal was encamp'd I then sent to him to know if he would have me come to him with five or six Italian and French Ensigns but he would not permit me so to do for fear left the enterprize of Montalsin might not as yet be fully sifted to the bottom And because the said Mareschal with those Italian and French Companies he had with him had not been able to discover the Enemies Fort to see if there was water in the ditch or no he was in the greatest perplexity imaginable for the Duke of Alva was departed from Ostia and retir'd towards the Kingdom of Naples having left only four Italian Ensigns in the Fort and as m●ny in Ostia and therefore had caus'd Artillery to come from Rome to batter the said Fort and had sent to intreat the Pope that my Son and Captain Charry might come to him which the Pope also granted to my great misfortune and the ruine of my poor Son who so soon as he and Captain Charry came before the Mareschal he complain'd to them that he had not been able to discover the Fort. The next night it being m● Sons turn to mount the Guard he determin'd with himself to effect that wherein 〈◊〉 had fa●l'd and communicated his design to Captain Charry and the Baron de Begnac who was also at that time upon the Guard He fail'd not accordingly to execute his resolution for the next day seeing the Enemies sally out according to their custom to fetch in Bavins he follow'd them and without fear of the Harquebuze shot pu●sued them fighting to the very ditch of the Fort where he discovered as exactly and with as much judgement as he had been an old Captain but in his return a cursed shot hit him in the Body notwithstanding which he went upon his own feet to the said Mareschals quarters saying that before he dyed he would give an account of what he had seen The said Mareschal so soon as he arriv'd at his Tent laid him upon his own bed where the poor Boy almost expiring told him what he had seen assuring h●m that the ditch was dry whatever he might have been told to the contrary presently after which he gave up the Ghost The Mareschal the next day sent his body to the Cardinal of Armagnac and the Sieur de Lansac to Rome who enterr'd him as honorably ●s he had been the Son of a great Prince The Pope the Cardinals and all the people of Rome exprest great sorrow for his death Had God been pleased to have preserv'd him to me I had made him a great Souldier for besides that he was very stout I ever observ'd in him a discretion above his age Nature had done him a little wrong for he was but little but strong and well knit and as to the rest el●quent and desirous to learn If the Mareschal de Cosse be yet living Marc Anthony serv'd under him at Mariamburg and he if he pleases can testifie should any one contradict what I write whether I lye or no and though it does not very well become Fathers to commend their own children yet being he is dead and so many witnesses of the truth of what I deliver I shall I conceive appear excuseable and worthy to be pardon'd Now to execute the command the King had given me in Tuscany I ask'd leave of the Pope to go to Montalsin who after great importunity would permit me but for fifteen days only making me leave my great horses and all my baggage behind which Monsieur de Strozzy was fain to send out after me saying they were his own and by his own servants The Cardinal of Armagnac also sent me out my Sumpter Mules cover'd with his own Sumpter-cloths pretending to send them to the house of another Cardinal where he us'd to stay sometimes twelve or fifteen days together by which means I got all my things out of Rome During the

be done but when I came I still found them put me off with so many delayes that I was forc'd to return as wise as I came I think they had a mind to have had me done it at my own expence and that the advantage and the profit should only have accru'd to them and in truth by the offers I made any one might plainly see I was willing to advance something of my own for I defray'd all the Gentlemen that did me the honor to go along with me at my own charge without putting the City to the expence of a Hen. This in truth was the reason why the Enterprize upon Bl●y was not put into execution I am very sure there was nothing in Guienne could have hindred me from effecting my design At the time when Des Rois besieg'd it I had taken an exact survey of the place and it is no such choak-pear as they make it Besides at that time the Hugonots scarce shew'd their heads and Guienne was quiet enough for all those who were able to bear arms went into the main body to the Admiral who after the death of the Prince of Condé caus'd himself to be declar'd Head of the Faction the Prince serving him only for a shadow It was that nevertheless that so much upheld the said Admiral and his Party for a Prince of the Blood can do much and the Son of the said Prince of Condé though he was very young was a great support to him also for without them and their authority he had never been able to have maintain'd the War so long The End of the Sixth Book THE COMMENTARIES OF Messire Blaize de Montluc MARESCHAL of FRANCE The Seventh Book SEeing I have taken in hand to leave to posterity an account of my life and to give a true relation whether good or bad of all that ever I have done in so many years that I have born arms for the Kings my Masters I am unwilling to omit any thing of action how little and inconsiderable soever and although the last little Victories I gave an account of were neither the Conquests of Naples nor Millan I have not however thought it ●it to leave them wholly out for inconsiderable as they are such may read them as they may be useful to and Captains and Soldiers may begin their Prentice-age with such little feats of arms as those it being by such that they first take Lesson and even those who have the Government of Provinces committed to their charge may by what I have perform'd take exemple of what was well if there be any such thing and avoid the evil I had so ●lipt the wings of the Hugonots that they were capable of doing no great matters in Guienne nor of attempting any other than very slight Enterprizes neither consequently was I in any capacity of performing any notable exploits both because there was not much of that nature in the Province left to do and also by reason I had on the other side sent away most of the Forces to the Monsieurs Army and did reserve all the money for his use I have moreover another reason why I am thus particular in my writing which is to the end that if the King shall vouchsafe the pains to read my Book and I think he reads some worse his Majesty may then see how much they have spoken against the truth who have said that I had now no other care nor meditated on any other thing but how to live quietly and at ease in my own house God knows these people understood me very ill Had I had the means I desir'd and that some might have supply'd me withall and that I might have had my own swing without being curb'd by those per●icious Edicts I should have prevented the Hugonots from reigning in Guienne and perhaps have rooted out the whole Race But to pursue the thread of my discourse and give a tr●e account of what has been the ruine of this poor Province I shall proceed to tell you that some time after the execution of these Enterprizes the Monsieur sent me a Letter containing these words Monsieur de Montluc Monsieur the Mareschal d' Anville has been here and is going into his Government to put some designs he has th●re into execution if therefore ●e shall stand in need of any thing in your Government let me entreat you to assist him the best you can This letter was del●ver'd to me at St. Foy and with it there came another to Monsieur de Sainct●rens wherein he was commanded to come and bring his Company along with him to the Army which was because his Highness had given Monsieur de Fontenilles leave to return home to refresh himself and to recruit his Company his said Highness sending me word not long after that I should keep Monsieur de Fontenilles with me without suffering them to stir out of the Country and that I should have a special regard to Bourdeaux assisting Monsieur de Terride with what I could in order to his Conquest of Bearn and that as to himself he was going down into Poictou This was heavy news to me although I was very glad of the coming of the Mareschal d'Anville and may I perish if I was not really as glad of it as if almost the Monsieur himself had come for I fancied that the Hugonots in Langutdoc and Guienne would not be able to stand two moneths before us The said Mareschal staid some dayes by the way and being arriv'd in Avergne dispatcht a Courrier to me to give me notice he was come and to tell me that he was glad of his Commission to come to make war in those parts as well for the satisfaction he should have in seeing me as out of the hopes he had we should do something to the purpose in these Countries of Languedoc and Guienne and that he was going through Albigeois directly to Tholouze I sent him back his Messenger in all haste desiring him by no means to go that way but that he would come to Rhodes and into Quercy and that I would come to meet him at Cahors for the Court de Montgomery was arriv'd about Castres where he was drawing a Party together so that he could not pass that way but he must be in danger of falling into the midst of the Enemy I had no answer from him till he came to Tholouze from whence he dispatcht a Courrier to me to advertize me of his arrival sending me word that he had past in the very beard of the Enemy but that none of them had presented themselves to oppose his way I was very glad to hear of his safe arrival and in his letter he entrea●ed me that we might meet and see one another to the end that being together we might take a good resolution to do the King some signal piece of service and that he would do nothing without my advice I had at that time a d●●luxion fall'n

the head of the Captains commanding the Waggoners to take two or three sacks of Oats and to throw them upon the Punchions and a little hay Which being done I ran to my own Tents which were behind the Regiment and fell to eat taking the Captains of the seven Ensigns to dinner with me Messieurs de Tavannes de Bourdillon and d' Estree made so good haste that they found the King but newly risen out of his Bed where they presently propos'd the business to him Whereupon the King would have call'd all the Council at which Monsieur d' Estree began to curse and swear as he told me afterwards and he is as good at it as I saying Sir Montluc told us true when he said you would still delay time in debates and consultations whether it be to be done or no whereas if your Majesty had resolv'd last night the relief had by this time been ten Leagues upon their way and he says moreover that if he have not what he demands immediately sent him he will not stand to his word for the Spaniards shall not triumph over him Monsieur de Guise then prosecuted the affair with great vehemency and vigour and Messieurs de Bourdillon and de Tavannes did the same when upon the instant without further deliberation it was concluded and Monsieur de Guise sent to Monsieur de Serres immediately to send the five and twenty Mules loaden with bread The King then sent me word by Monsieur de Broilly a Gentleman belonging to the Duke of Guise that he had approv'd of my opinion saving that he could not consent I should go because he had no other person to command the Regiments in case he should be put to the necessity of a Battel for no body knew whether or no the King of Spain was not coming with a resolution to present it he making a shew of attempting great matters but that he was going to make choice of one to lead the succours and that I should make all things ready in the mean time The said Broilly return'd in all haste to the King to tell his Majesty that he had seen the seven Ensigns drawn out into the Field ready to march and that I staid for nothing but the Bread and at the same time that Broilly was return'd towards the King the Mules arriv'd and by the way he met with Captain Brueil Governor of Rue and Brother in Law to Salcede who told him that the King had made choice of him to conduct the relief to Corbie Captain Brueil staid to eat four or five bits only whilst waiting for two servants he had sent for who presently came and so they began to march I accompanied them above a long League on their way still talking to him and the rest of the Captains representing to them that God had given them a fair opportunity which also they ought to have purchas'd at the price of half their estates wherein to manifest to the King the affection they bore to his service and also to give a testimony of their own valour in the sight as it were of the King himself who would be ready to relieve them and to fight a Battel rather than suffer them to be lost I found by their answers that they went with great chearfulness which made me leave them to go through the files of the Souldiers and to remonstrate to them that it was their own faults if they did not signalize themselves for ever that the King so long as he liv'd would acknowledge their service and that I had done them a great honor in choosing out them from the rest of the Regiment entreating them not deceive the good opinion I had of them and that I would deliver to the King the names of those who should best acquit themselves of their duty in obeying what should be impos'd upon them after which I made them all lift up their hands and swear that they would march day and night which being done I return'd to the van to embrace Captain Brueil and the rest of the Captains and Lieutenants promising them immediately to go to the King and to acquaint his Majesty with the election I had made of their persons above all others of the Regiment for this service and so left both Officers and Souldiers chearful and very well resolv'd upon this long march saying to them at parting Remember Fellow Souldiers the diligences you have formerly seen me make in both Piedmont and in Italy for many of them had serv'd under me in those expeditions and believe that upon your diligence now depend both your lives and honors Now being I am not of that Countrey nor was ever there but at this time I am not able to make any judgement of their diligence but the King and all those who were acquainted with the Countrey said that never Foot before perform'd such a prodigious march neither did they ever enter into either Town or Village but when by day they met with a little River they made a halt and refresh'd themselves two hours at most taking a little nap and away again but march'd continually all night They were out but two nights and arriv'd by Sun-rise within a quarter of a League of Corbie where they met a Gentleman who was riding post to the King to give him notice that the King of Spain's Camp was just coming before the Town and who moreover told them they must run full speed if they intended to get in for that the Cavalry already began to arrive They then began to mend their pace the Gentleman returning back with them almost to the Town that he might be able to give the King an account that they were entred when so soon as they came within two or three hundred paces of the walls the Enemies Cavalry began to appear and our men run full carreer to throw themselves before the gate and upon the edges of the Graft where they made head The Enemy kill'd seven or eight Souldiers in the rear who were not able to keep pace with the rest and so all our people got safe into the City without losing any of their Mules or Waggo●s for they had made an end of all their bread and wine four Leagues from thence and had sent them back I had also given them one of my six Chests that I had con●●●v'd to carry powder in which was drawn by three horses and that arriv'd at the Gates as soon as the Souldiers There are yet living several Princes and Lords who were then of the Kings Council that can bear witness whether I speak the truth or no especially Messieurs de Tavannes and d' Estree who carried my deliberation to the King When ever Camrades the King or his Lieutenant shall put you upon a design that requires extraordinary diligence for the relieving of a place you ought not to lose so much as a quarter of an hour and you had much better work your body and your legs

to the utmost of what you are able to perform and enter into the place with safety than walking at your case to be kill'd and not to enter into it wherein your selves will be the cause of your own death and the loss of the place and where you might by your d●ligence gain a brave reputation you will by loytering at your ease finish your life and your 〈◊〉 together and never excuse your selves upon the Souldiers nor make the Enterprize seem difficult unto them but always easie and above all things be sure to carry provision along with you especially bread and wine wherewith to refresh them by the way for as I have said before humane bodies are not made of iron always speaking chearfully to them by the way and encouraging them to go on representing to them the great honor they will acquire to themselves and the signal service they shall perform for the King and doubt not but proceeding after that manner men will go as far and farther than horses I advise you to nothing that I have not often done my self and caus'd to be done as you will find in the reading my Book for after horses are once tir'd you shall not make them budge a step with all the spurs you have but men are supported by their courage and require not so much time for refreshing they eat as they go and chear one another upon their march It will therefore Fellow Captains stick only at you do then as I have often done forsake your horses and fairly on foot at the head of your men shew them that you will undergo the same labour they do by which means you will make them do any thing you will and your example will enflame the courages and redouble the Forces of the most tir'd and overspent of all the Company Two or three days after the King mov'd with all his Army directly towards Amiens and in his first or second days march arriv'd the Gentleman from the Governor of Corbie who found his Majesty marching his Army in the field where he brought him news that Captain Brueil was entred safe into Corbie which was a great satisfaction both to his said Majesty and the whole Army to know that this place was secured whereupon his Majesty merrily said to Monsieur de Guise Who shall be the first to tell Montluc this news for I for my part will not be he Nor I neither said Monsieur de Guise for so soon as he shall hear it he will so crow there will be no dealing with him which they said because they had all of them been of opinion that it was impossible for foot to perform so long a a journey The next day his Majesty was advertised that the King of Spain had made a halt a little League from Corbie and made no shew of having any intention to besiege that place which made the King think that by reason of the succours it had receiv'd he would make no attempt against it and thereupon it presently came into his head that he would march directly to Amiens which having no more than one or two foot Companies in Garrison he immediately sent away the Marquis de Villars who is yet living with three hundred men at arms to go in extreme diligence and put himself into it commanding me to send away other seven Ensigns to follow after him with all the haste they possibly could make which I accordingly did and gave the charge of conducting them to Captain Forces who is yet living and being the Captains and Souldiers had all heard what commendations both the King and all the Army had given Captain Brueil for the haste he had made in going to relieve Corbie they would do the same and arriv'd as soon as the said Marquis at Amiens for nothing so much excites men of our Trade as glory and the desire to do as well or better than another Two or three days before this his Majesty had sent three Companies also into Dourlans and so with all great ease provided for the safety of these three important places So soon as the King was come to Amiens the King of Spain's Army also arriv'd and encamp'd within a League the River betwixt them and there the Treaty of peace was set on foot of which the Constable and the Mareschal de S. Andre had made the first overtures during the time of their imprisonment in Spain in order to which I think there was a truce from the beginning because nothing of action past on either side at least that I remember for I fell very sick of a double Tertian Ague which I got not by excess of revelling and dancing but by passing the nights without sleep sometimes in the cold sometimes in the heat always in action and never at rest It was well for me that God gave me an able body and a strong constitution for I have put this carcass of mine as much to the proof as any Souldier whatsoever of my time After all the going to and again that lasted for above two months the peace was in the end concluded to the great misfortune principally of the King and generally of the whole Kingdom This peace being cause of the surrender of all the Countreys conquer'd and the Conquests made both by King Francis and Henry which were not so inconsiderable but that they were computed to be as much as a third part of the Kingdom of France and I have read in a Book writ in Spanish that upon this accomodation the King deliver'd up an hundred fourscore and eighteen Fortresses wherein he kept Garison by which I leave any one to judge how many more were in dependance and under the obedience of these All we who bear Arms may affirm with truth that God had given us the best King for Souldiers that ever Reign'd in this Kingdom and as for his people they were so affectionate to him that not one of them ever repin'd to lay out his substance to assist him in the carrying on of so many Wars as he had continually upon his hands I shall not condemn those who were the Authors of this peace for every one must needs believe they did ●t to good intent and that had they foreseen the mischiefs that ensu'd upon it they would never have put a hand to the work for they were so good servants of the Kings and lov'd him so well as they had good and just reason to do that they would rather have dy'd in Captivity than have done it which I say because the Constable and the Mareschal de S. Andre were the first movers and promoters of it who themselves have seen the death of the King and themselves shar'd in the mishaps that have since befallen this miserable Kingdom wherein they both dyed with their swords in their hands who otherwise might yet perhaps have been alive by which any one may conclude that they did not make this peace foreseeing the
