A02726	An exhortacion to the Scottes to conforme them selfes to the honorable, expedie[n]t, and godly vnion, betwene the twoo realmes of Englande and Scotlande.	Harrison, James, fl. 1547.	1547 (1547)	STC 12857; ESTC S103818	29,237	128

vtter ruine had not the kyng by gods commaundemeÌ„t committed his armie vnto Moses But after that Gathelus was come and had wonne a battail against the Moores Moses and his coÌ„pany grewe out of fauor and were fain to flee out of Egipt into Inde Then was Gathelus made lieuetenaunt of Pharaos army and for his valeauÌ„t seruice obteined Scota the Kynges sister in mariage with all the landes lately taken from the people of Israell After the deathe of this Pharao reigned his sonne Bochoris whiche oppressed Gods people with more tyranny then his father did But after the God had sent greate plagues emong the Egipcians Gathelus vnder standyng by the prophetes that greater were like to folowe forsooke Egipte in the yere of the creacion of the world .iii. M.vj. C.xliij He with Scota his wife their children seruauntes Grekes and Egipcians came out of the mouthe of Nilus and passyng by the sea called Mediterraneum toke land in Numidie and after he arriued into a part of Spayne then called Lusitania whiche because of his arriual there had the name of Portyngale as one would saie the porte of Gathele THIS is a greate stomble at the thressholde of the dore for it is plain by histories that Lusitania was not called Portyngale almost by a M. yeres after this supposed tyme. But for the better triall let vs examine the circumstaunces of the persone time and place And for the persone we will admit Gathelus to be the kyng of Athens sonne although no suche name is found in the Greke histories and wee will admitte Pharao to haue a doughter thoughe no historie Greke or Egipt mencion of any suche But when wee haue admitted the persons al the doubt is how we shall couple theim in mariage For accomptyng the tyme of Pharaos reigne father of Scota after the Hebrues then was she in the yere of the creacion of the worlde twoo thousand foure hundred yeres and by our histories Gathelus was in the yere of the creacion of the world three thousand sixe hundred fortie and three whiche is differente twelfe hundred yeres and more THIS beinge true here were a very vnfitte mariage betwene these twoo persones the Bridegrome beinge elder then the Bride by .xii. C. and .xl. yeres But some wiseman will saye the folke liued loÌ„g in those daies yet can thei not denye but she was to olde a mayde for so yonge a bachelar whereby I can worse beleue that they had any childreÌ„ she beinge of suche yeares So that to make this mariage frame either Gathelus was elder then his father or she was yonger then her brother by a thousande yeares at the leaste And syns the tyme of Abraham men by course of nature haue not coÌ„ monlie lyued much aboue a C. yeares And this is ouer plaine to be excused as a faulte of the writer seing the whole course of our historie dependeth vpon the tyme. If she then coulde be doughter to none of the Pharaoes no more coulde he be sonne to any of the kynges of Athens And in the tyme that Gathelus liued which is alledged to be in the yeare of the worlde .iii. M.vi C.xliii there were no kinges in Athens but it was gouerned by certayne Rulers as a free estate If this then be false in the originall we muste iudge in the sequele which is of their coÌ„ming into Spaine and of their sonne Hyber afterwardes into Irelande of whome it is called Hybernia with all the processe of the historie no lesse vnlikelie For if either the SpaÌ„yardes inhabitinge Galicia or the Irishe men that now be had comme of Grekes or Egyptians then of likelyhode some parte of their speache or language should remain there The vocables souÌ„ des of which toÌ„gues be asmuch differente in sounde as the voices of men and the noise of dogges But seinge this priuiledge hath been geueÌ„ vnto antiquitie that to make their fame moore highe and honorable they myghte referre their beginninge to the Goddes and thoughe the same were more like Poetes fableis then syncere histories yet to be taken for true Soo woulde not I trauaile so muche in disprofe of these trifles but because I se that as thei were at the first inuented for diuision by new diuersitie of names so thei be continued at this daie for like purposes Suche practises haue bene vsed in Italie betweene Guelfes and Gibilines and in Hollande betwene Hukeis and Cabellawes and other where by newe founde names inueÌ„ted by the chyldren of perdicion to set vs at diuision euen as they by diuersitie of sectes names are diuided from the vnitie of Christes religioÌ„ I nede not to name them for those coÌ„panioÌ„s be wel enough knowne by their coates and hodes whome as I do not reproue of hatered to their persones no moore do I impugne their histories for enuy at oure nacion whose honor if I should not earnestly seke I mought be compted moste vnnaturall but that I se what sedicion is sowen by ouer much credite vnto their fables and inuencions which I suppose hath been a greate lette to the coÌ„corde that all good meÌ„ desire For seinge the beginninges of people cannot be certainely knowen but onely vnto God whiche was afore al beginning it shal be better to admitte some thinges for true the contrarye wherof cannot be proued then to labor in vayne where the truth cannot be tried But this thing which is apparauntelye false repugnaunte to reason and not onely against al other histories but also contrary in it self yea againste the scripture founded vpoÌ„ falsehode mainteined vpoÌ„ malice and sette forthe to the diuision of two Realmes I thoughte it no vnprofitable labor to impugne lamentinge that in a Chronicle so exactelic written so eloquentelie set furthe there shoulde wante veritie the cheife grounde of al historie whishing vnto the aucthor asmuch wante of malice affeccion as he hath plentie of witte and learninge An other argumeÌ„t I gather out of the same historie where it is confessed that after the Britaynes inhabiting Scotlande were expulsed by the Pictes thei with their wifes childreÌ„ fledde into Ireland where thei continewed xlv yeares together Duringe which time by reason of biynge and selliÌ„g marriyng and other trauffique with the Irishe people their name touÌ„gue was a great part altered lost Yet as our histories shew the posteritie of those people comming afterwardes vnto the possessioÌ„ of their countrey to kepe in memorie of what kinde thei were come called them selfes Realbines the is to saye Albines again for a knowledge as it should seme aswel of their kindered as of their restitutioÌ„ coÌ„ming againe which is a better profe to shew vs disceÌ„ded of Albanactus according to the English historie then to saie the Realbines is vnderstaÌ„ded kinges of Albion as the traÌ„slator of Boetius historie interpretethe As though it werlike that those fewe whiche had put foote but in the smallest and most barrain porcion of the Isle should call theÌ„selfes kinges of Albion when thei
