January c. In the Assembly of Moulins the Chancellor having represented how the King had spent almost two years in visiting his Kingdom to find what disorders the War had produced declared that the greatest and indeed the source of all others ☞ was that all those that were in Office did not only make advantage of their administration and their management as of their own proper Goods but moreover abused of it to the damage and ruine of the publick the contempt of Religion of the Law and of their Prince He afterwards treated and made mention of several particulars whereby Grievances might be remedied as to retrench the multitude of the Chambers of Parliament and reduce it to its first institution to give honourable Salaries to the Judges that they might take no more either Spices nor Vacations nor Presents upon pain of destitution that they might be only Triennial in each Parliament and before they went off to give an account of their Conduct before certain Censors chosen for that purpose Upon these excellent Propositions and many more besides which may well be desired but little expected ever to be put in practice the Presidents of Parliament and Councellors of State having delivered their Opinions and endeavour'd to out-vie each other to shew their capacity was made that celebrated Edict of Moulins given at Paris the tenth of July which in the whole contains 86 Heads some whereof were to confirm the Edict made at Paris two years before and that of Rousillon which explained it the other to make some certain Regulations in matters of justice Amongst others that a Debter though he have not engaged his person may be detained Prisoner if he do not make satisfaction within four Months after Judgment signified to him and be confined till either he hath paid or delivered up his Goods that in the Civil no proof by Witnesses shall hereafter be received or held valid for any Sum above an hundred Livers that all substitutions made before the Ordonnance of Orleans which went to infinity should be restrained to the fourth degree this Ordonnance had reduced them for the future unto the second That they shall be published in Court and Registred in the next Registers Office belonging to the King that donations between persons living should be insinuated within four Months in such Registry's nearest to the habitation of the parties upon pain of Nullity Year of our Lord 1566. February c. Before the Court parted from Moulins they patcht up an accommodation between the Guises and the Colignis There being no clear proof the Admiral had any hand in the Murther of the Duke of Guise and having purged himself by Oath the King enjoyned them to embrace forget and lay aside all enmities on either part Which was performed between the Admiral on the one side and the Widdow of the deceased Duke of Guise and the Cardinal de Lorrain on the other The young Duke was not there he being gone to make his first Campagne in Hungary from whence he returned not till the latter end of this year In the same place the reconciliation betwixt the Cardinal de Lorrain and the Mareschal de Montmorency was likewise made the former having declar'd that it was not in contempt of the Kings Authority he had omitted to produce his Letters Patents which allowed him to go abroad armed the latter that the Method he had proceeded in was not with any manner of design to affrout him but purely to observe the Kings Edict as he was in duty bound by his Office In this year must be placed the beginning of the Civil Wars in the Low-Countries which lasted till the time of the Peace of Munster without any relaxation save during the Truce which was obtained by Henry IV. The fear and dread of the Inquisition was the principal cause of it It was extremely detrimental and ruinous to the Flemmings for besides the too violent severities used against those that were tainted with the new Opinions it wholly interrupted all Commerce and frighted away the Germans Danes and English from the City of Antwerp and other maritime Towns of the Low-Countries The Clergy were but little less aggrieved by the erecting of Seven Bishopricks dismembred from the Metropolitans of Reims Triers Colen and the Bishopricks Year of our Lord 1566 of Liege and Munster because they united to them the richest Abbeys of the Low-Countries and put in Prelates wholly devoted to the Council of Spain So that under pretence of
to the Favorites would not suffer him long in that post They labour'd on both sides to gain the Deputies for the Estates The over-confidence of the League was a little humbled by the defeat of Philips Armado which month August equally threatned both France and England That Invincible Fleet so they called it after it had been tossed beaten scatter'd every where by continual tempests and then by the English and Hollanders having lost near Ten thousand Men and above Threescore Ships had much ado torn and shatter'd as it was to recover the Ports of Spain The King was at Chartres when he received the news of it and it was this perhaps which emboldned him to go to Blois where his presence was necessary to see and take notice of the Deputies as they repaired thither month September The Fifteenth of September being come but very few of the Deputies the Assembly was put off till October and the first Session was open'd on a Sunday the Sixteenth month October of that Month. The Clergy had an hundred thirty four Deputies there amongst whom appeared Four Arch-Bishops Bishops One and twenty and Two Chiefs of Orders attired in their Rochets and Surplices The Nobility had an hundred and Fourscore in Velvet Gowns and Caps The Third Estate an hundred ninety one part of them Lawyers part of them Trading People the First with Gowns and square Caps the others with short Cloaks and round Bonnets Before the opening of this Assembly the King knew by the tenor of their Papers or Instructions that there was a party made to diminish his Authority and augment that of the Estates wherefore he gave notice in his Harangue otherwise very eloquent and very pathetique of his resentment against the Duke of Guise for which that Prince made such violent complaint to him by the mouth of the Arch-Bishop of Lyons that he was obliged when he gave it to be Printed to retrench and alter many things which were but the deeper imprinted in his Heart At the Second Session which was the following Tuesday he swore to the Edict of Re-Union and ordained that it should be observed for a Fundamental Law of the State and would have the Three Orders swear to it with one voice the Clergy laying their hands upon their Breasts as the others hold theirs aloft This done he protested he would forget all that was past and charged the Prevost des Marchands Year of our Lord 1588 to assure the City of Paris of it month October Who can resolve whether these words were a sincere Truth or a profound dissimulation month November if his Soul were then such as he professed it did not hold long so He look'd upon the Duke of Guise as a dangerous Rival all whose actions seemed by his interpretation to tend to the ruine of his Authority he was netled that they should force him to swear to the Edict that the League had constrained the Count de Soissons for he had quitted the King of Navarre to take Absolution of the Pope notwithstanding they made all their effort though in vain to hinder his Holiness from granting it and that when the said Count had brought his Letters of Pardon to the Parliament a Taylor with a Crew of the most hot-headed Leaguers went to the Palais and so frighted the Counsellors that they durst not proceed to verisie it He was yet more stung and offended for that the Estates made great Complaints against the Government demanded the suppression of new Offices an abatement of the Tailles and Imposts the punishment of Financiers and Favourites and used all manner of practises to moderate and clip the Soveraign Power and set up the Laws Which did not only proceed from the Factions of the League but also the unanimous desire of the People who imagining the King would ere long lose either his Life or Sences for Miron his chief Physician had imprudently said that the one or the other would come to pass within a twelvemonth thought it now necessary to make so strong and high a fence against him that should next succeed to the Crown that he might never be able to force the same nor bring such heavy Oppressions upon the Subjects as France had groaned under ever since the Reign of Francis I. The Huguenots prompted by the same Spirit endeavour'd likewise to restrain the Power of the King of Navarre in an Assembly he had Convocated at Rochel For apprehending he might change his Religion they demanded Protectors in each Province and Chambers or Courts of Justice to hear their Complaints and do them Right He had much ado to avoid the first and hinder them from making choice of Prince Casimir for their Protector General but as to the second he was forced to grant it and set up of those Chambers in five or six Cities However he revoked them two years after when he came to the Crown The Duke of Mayennes Army made little progress in Dausine because he staid at Lyons to decide some Controversies there were for the Government of the City between Mandelot and the Son of Villeroy they spent all their Fire against the Fort of Oysans which Lesdiguieres had built in their way this scurvy Redout resisted thirty days before they would capitulate In like manner that under the Duke of Nevers in Poiton was consumed in taking some small places of no importance They lay before la Ganache when they received the news of the Duke of Guises death Year of our Lord 1588 The King thought himself daily wounded by fresh and more hainous offences their vehement urging him to receive the Council of Trent did greatly distaste and perplex him the demand of the Estates that their Instructions or Memorials should be conclusive appeared yet ruder to him but he took the Deputation they made to oblige him expressly to declare the King of Navarre incapable of succeeding to the Crown to be altogether insupportable During these times the Duke of Savoy a Man of high courage and a genius much greater then his State did not forget to do his own business Believing the Kingdom of France was going to be dismembred he thought he had more right then any one else to get his share as being almost the only Male Prince though by the Female side that was then remaining of the Blood of the great King Francis and withall having some pretensions upon the Marquisate of Salusses and other Lands on this side the Alpes However he would not varnish his design with that pretence but rather chose the fair Masque of Religion In effect Lesdiguieres being very powerful having taken Chasteau-Daufin and being leagued with la Valete who had the Government of Salusses there was some danger lest Calvinisme might from thence step into his Countries and become the most prevalent under favour of so pernicious a Neighbourhood The Duke Armed therefore feigning he designed against Montferrat and la Valete being so embarrassed in Provence that he could do nothing on this
