Bonomouer went directly towards them and hauing throwen one downe with a short picke caused the said shot to discharge his piece who kilde an other The rest seeing this they abandoned the place againe and thereupon the said S.

woode at the side whereof his Maiestie placed his lanciers in battaile a ray to make thir standing sure and so passing the wood got the towne of Pontarsy where all his troupes passed the riuer The enimie went directly out of the village standing still a while by the way for feare of ambush of shot that might be lodged in the wood but at last they passed through it and met with the baron of Biron who gaue them a charge and slewe fiue and twentie or thirtie of them His Maiestie caused Captaine Langemis company to light who saluted the enimy with such a value of shot that they kilde a great nomber of them and thus they retired to the towne againe and passed the riuer The duke of Parma began likewise to retire encamping him all night there about fearing an alarum thinking that Monsieur de Neuers came behind him Next morning 25. or 30. of the enimies carbines hauing lost their way came before the saide towne enquiring for the Prince of Parmas quarter and being suffered to enter into the town the inhabitants therof hauing disarmed them threw them from the bridge into the water and drowned them His Maiestie ioyned with Monsieur de Neuers the 27. of the said moneth as

The surcesse of which pursute you shall fourth with receiue Nevves from Daulphine THE Lorde Diguires hauing receiued the Kings commaundement by two letters of his Maiesty to warre against the Duke of Sauoy thought it good to delay no longer the execution of his will But vpon the receipt of his Letters which was about the latter ende of Maie hauing delayed his purpose vntill then but onely for the lets and hinderances hée had in Prouence which was assaulted in diuers places by the leagers of Sauoy Lionnois and Daulphine purposed to put in all haste the Kings commanndement in execution This deliberation was yet stayed for the aide which he in person was forced to giue to the Lord de la Valette in the moneth of Iune and Iuly which were almost wholy spent in the affaires of Prouence where they had so good a successe that the enemy hauing refused the combate and lost the field abandoned in token of his cowardnesse the Townes and Castels of Peruis Pumichet Vallansele Montaignac Soluiers Pignauers and Lorgis some of them brought vnto the Kings obedience by force and some by composition During this absence the Captaine la Cazette being his Maiesties subiect but yet affectionated vnto the Duke of Sauoy compounded with the Duke vpon the taking of the Townes and Castels of Briancon and Essiles kept by those of the Neutralles and hauing receiued commission to that ende to leauie souldiours expected the arriuall of foure and twentie Spanish companies for to bring his enterprise the more easier to effect by their aide and assistaunce The Lorde Deguisires informed of long time of his practizes and foreséeing the importance of that losse which should hinder and shut vp the passage of the Artillery and French armie and leaue no way to come by any meanes in Piemont practised so purposely with the chiefe inhabitants of the ballies that by their means the house of Cazette was blowen vp and he slaine the fiftéenth day of Iuly And so the Duke was there for that time preuented of his purpose This newes being brought vnto the Lorde Deguisires it caused him to turne backe into Daulphine and to march in all haste towardes d'Ambrum where the deputies of the saide vallies did méete him who after they had declared vnto him the treasons of Cazette by the Papers which were founde in his house bounde themselues by oathe to be faithfull vnto the King and so they were sent backe againe to bring the people that had sent them more affectionated vnto his Maiesties seruice and obedience In the meane while the saide Lorde Deguisires béeing aduertised of the wauering which the said death voluntarie yéelding of that people and the Towne of Briancon did cause and knowing also that those which were of the Kings side within the Towne beganne to be incouraged caused foure Cannons to be drawen and brought before that place Which when they were planted and a breach made the enemy did parlée in so much that the Towne and Castell thereof were rendred at the last being the sixtéenth day of the moneth of August by Clauison who was appointed Gouernour by the Duke de Maine of that place From thence the Lorde Deguisiers went to Montgeure to take Essiles vpon a contract which he had made long before with the Gouernour thereof And séeing that this bargaine was made but in wordes onely and that he was not sufficiently prouided to force the saide place and that the Lorde de la

of Boys●t and twelue launces of the Lorde Brickmorte were lodged who receiued them so valiantly by the ayde of twoo other companies of footemen that came running thither in all haste vppon the noyse they hearde that Salines lefte sixe score of his men dead and thirtie Spaniardes taken sauing himselfe but with sixe other Voluant Capitaine of the Dukes guarde was there also taken and hurte whereof he died wythin a day after receiuing by his death a iust rewarde and punishment according vnto his deserts because he had solde vnto the deceased Duke of Sauoy after the death of the Marshall de Bellegarde the Towne and Castell of Cramanolle where he and his sather were Gouernours of for the King The nexte day following being the sixtéenth day of August the saide Lorde tooke by composition the Castell of Rosolez which is the Dukes and had there in garrison two companies of footemen that were permitted to departe with their armour but lefte their colours behinde After this exploite continuing his waie hée came into Prouence so fitly for those of Saint Maximine that Martiningo

and perceining by the saws Sonnes answere that there was no more hope of the combate determined to spend the rest of the day in assaulting the saide place lying vpon the hanging of the mountaine betwéene Suze and Noualise And hauing found meanes to lodge and place a hundreth Musquettiers who battered the enemy vpon the side of thest Skonse their treuches were forced and foure score of them

saued vnto hun leauing neuerthelesse their armour colours horses and baggage behinde them except the Captaines who were permitted to departe with their Swordes vpon a backney Vnto the inhabitants was graunted the enjoying of their goodes abiding vnder the Kings obedience as all subiects of his Maiestie vpon condition also to pay fire thousand crownes for the army and fraight of the artifllerie The

had neuer aboue thrée hundred horses and twelue hundred shot hauing also no greater ennemy then the inaccessible height of the mountaines where he was forced to passe his cannons and chiefly in his fourhey towardes Barcellona But care and daligence did nuercome all difficulties The praise whereof be giuen to God Amen A Godly Praier and Thankes-giuing vnto GOD for his wonderfull mercies in preseruing and maintening the defendors of the truth and discomforting of the enemies of the same O Heauenly father the Creator of all creatures the strength of all armies the King of all kings and the worker of all wonders we thy distressed seruants do humbly beseech thee to looke downe vpon vs from the throne of thy diuine Maiestie and for thy mercies sake to take compassion on vs. We acknowledge O Lorde that our insolent actions togither with our pride and wickednes of life hath wel deserued thy wrath and heauy displeasure so that the continuance of thy wrath these many yeares vppon thy Church hath been no more then we haue iustly deserued Neuerthelesse heauenly Father we presume vpon thy strength and the multitude of thy mercies that therfore thou wilt saue and defend all those that seeke to supporte the trueth Let not thy heart be hardened against vs O Lord for thou art our father sauiour and redeemer frō the beginning We haue O Lord erred from thy wayes and contrariwise we haue hardned our hearts against thee for which nowe we remaine sorrowfull Notwithstāding let the inward sorrowes of our hearts O Lorde be an occasion to withdrawe thy wrath and heauy displeasure from vs which bringeth no other then bloudshed death and destruction vpon our selues Our enemies Lorde haue long sought to triumph ouer vs and haue greeuously spoyled thy holy Temples yea they haue made hauocke of thy creatures and haue so little regarded vs as though thou hadst neuer beene Lorde ouer vs yea as though thy glorious Name had neuer beene called on by vs O Lord we beseech thee for thy mercie sake let the malitious minds of those which seeke daily our confusion boyle away as the water doth vpon on the fire that thy mightines may be thorowly knowne to thy enemies and that they may trēble at thy wonderfull works Remember O Father that we are to thee as clay in the Potters handes wee are the works of thy fingers we are thy creatures and therfore deliuer vs O Lord from this continual tribulation where Syon is turned in to a desart and Ierusalem into continual desolation The places of holy praier wherein our forefathers haue heretofore soūded forth thy glory are now turned into heaps of fire and continuall harbors for armed men and ourland brought to confusion and the ground made like to a wildernes Withdraw therefore O heauenlie Father the rod of thy wrath from vs and thrust foorth thy merciful hand for our reliefe Thou hast lately giuen to vs a taste of cōfort in this that thy capitall enemy now liuing is retired and by thy power cōstrained to fly from among vs whom he intēded to daūt with his mighty armies great looks and politike deuices who notwithstanding the wonderfull reportes of his mightines durst not hazard his quarrel vpō a pitched field with vs although his forces were three to one To thee therefore O Lorde we render all thankes and humbly giue praise to thy heauenly Maiesty for shewing vs some comfort by daunting our enemies which had it not bin for thy our stretched arme O Lord we had remained in great daunger nay we had bin troden vnder foot like chaffe and made foode for the foules of the aire But thou hast beene our defendor and onely comfort thou hast strengthned vs that were but weake and weakned them which in shewe are verie strong Continue we beseech thee this thy goodnesse to vs for thy mercy sake blesse our friends and welwillers comforte our distressed estate and suffer not our enemies to preuaile against vs giue vs grace O Lord dayly to indeuour our selues to laud and magnifie the holy name of thee who liuest and raignest worlde without ende Amen FINIS
