are very curious Particulars There is the Life of famous M rc Antony de Dominis Arch-Bishop of Spalatro included in a Letter written from Rome The Author had already published it in the Third Part of his Brittanica Politica It is a very curious Piece wherein is seen how this Prelate imbraced the Protestant Religion and how being deluded by the Promises of Dom Diego Sarmianto de Acuna Ambassador of France in England and by that of the Court of Rome he returned into Italy where he unhappily ended his Days without obtaining any thing of what he hoped There also is a Letter of Pope Gregory XV. to the Prince of Wales who was since Charles I. Upon his Marriage with the Infanta of Spain and an Answer of this Prince to the Pope The Fifth Book contains the Reign of the same Prince where his Innocence may be seen and the unheard of Violence of his Subjects described without partiality and all the Proceedings which were made against him The last Volume is composed of Six Books The first contains the History of Cromwell's Usurpation more exact and sincere that it had been heretofore Hitherto have been but Satyrs or Panegyricks thereupon The Creatures of Cromwell have raised him up to the Clouds and his Enemies have omitted nothing that might defame him The Author pretends that he hath been the greatest Politician and the greatest Captain of his time and that he was much more able to Reign than several of those whom Providence hath plac'd upon the Throne by Inheritance But he sheweth on the other side That he was a Cheat and a Tyrant who after having dipped his hand in the Innocent Blood of his Master all his Life cheated the People by a specious Zeal for Religion The Second Book contains the History of Charles the II. until his Restauration In this Book are seen the Honours which were rendred to him in Holland his Magnificent Entry into London his Clemency to those who had bore Arms against him and his Justice towards the Murderers of his Father The same History is continued in the Third Book from the Year M. DC LXI unto the Year M. DC LXXX There is also the Life of the Duke of York until his Marriage with Chancellour Clarendon's Daughter the Quarrel which happened between the Ambassadours of France and Spain about Precedency The subtilty wherewith the Spanish Ambassador carried it the Marriage of the Princess Henrietta and that of the King the War of England with Holland and with France the Peace that was made afterwards with both the others which was followed with a secret Treaty betwixt England France appeared in M. DC Lxxii the Marriage of the Duke of York with the Princess of Modena the Calling Prorogation and dissolving different Parliaments In fine the Discovery which Oates and Bedlow made of a Conspiracy which made so great noise and whereof this Author appears not very much persuaded We find in the fourth Book the sequel of the same Troubles and the History of what passed in the Parliaments convocated in M. DC.LXXX at London and Oxford There is particularly in this Book one thing of very great importance which the Author relates with as much sincerity as if none was interessed therein Which are 1. The Endeavours the Parliament of England made to exclude the Duke of York from the Crown 2. The Reasons which were alledged for this 3. The manner wherewith the Creatures of this Prince defended his Rights The Author endeth this Book by the Description of Pensilvania without omitting either the Offers which are made to those who will go to inhabit it or the manner they may be established in it The fifth Book begins with the Encomium of the House of Savoy and tells us afterwards with a very great exactness the means which Madam c. made use of in M. DC LXXX and M.DC.LXXXII to obtain of his British Majesty that the Ambassadours of Savoy shou'd be received in London like those of Crowned Heads It is one of the finest places of the whole Work and they who love to read the particulars of a Negotiation cannot read a more curious one nor one better related than this The last contains the Affair of Count Koningsmarc with all its Circumstances which is a very good History and whence the manner may be Learned after what Strangers are judged in England Here it is that the Work endeth The Author promiseth us in his Preface another Volume where all will appear which hath happen'd in England till these latter Years The Style of this History as well as the other Works of Mr. Leti is easy and without Affectation contrary to the custom of most Italian Writers But what is most considerable is that he relate● Matters so nakedly and speaks so freely of the Interests of the greatest Princes of Europe that perhaps one day persons will not be easily persuaded that the Author had caused this Work to be printed during his Life and the life of those of whom he speaks if at the beginning the Year had not been marked wherein it was printed Mr. Leti hath since written a Book which treats of all that concerneth Embassies There may not only be seen the modern use of all Courts in this respect but the ancient also so that it will be a History of great concern The Author is not contented to speak of the Duties and Priviledges of all the Ministers which one Soveraign sends to another but of each according to the Degree of his Character he speaks largely also on the Origine of this Function and upon all the Principalities which are formed in the World He relates several Examples of Ambassadours who have committed gross Mistakes and gives Instructions how to manage worthily this Post according to the different Courts wherein they are oblig'd to reside Men will easily believe that a Work which treats of things of this nature and of so great a number of others is worthy of Publication An Examination of the Infallibility and Right which the Roman Church pretends to have in Judging Absolutely in Matters of Controversie 8 vo 1687. 255. WHilst the Romish Church makes use of all the Power of Soveraigns to re-unite to its Communion those who have quitted it Protestants oppose these progresses by co●ntaining their Cause with the soundest Reasons which they can think upon Though they differ amongst themselves about several Speculative Doctrines they perfectly agree upon Morality and the Worship which we owe to the Divinity they also in general are of one Mind in those Principles of Religion which they admit in respect to Holy Writ and have all an extream aversion for that Church which pretends to be a Judge in its own Cause and which without delay forceth those it calls Hereticks to a Worship which is against their Consciences Amongst the Protestant Societies there is none who hath declared it self more openly against Human Authority in matter of Religion and against the Constraining and Spirit of
Ambreus told him he could not but say what God inspired him with and Grotius having at last ordered him either to abstain from railing or Preach no more this Ambreus leaving him in anger and coming down stairs said grumbling that it was a strange thing that the Ambassador of the Crown of Swedland would shut the Holy Ghost's mouth Which Grotius related unto me adds Mr. du Maurier being ready to split with laughing and said that this Ambreus complained every where that he shut the Holy Ghost's mouth because he hindered him from speaking against his Neighbour Yet Grotius complains only of Brandanus and also contradicts in another thing M. du Maurier This Author saith that one M. d'Or who was of the same Sentiments with Calvin Preached in the Afternoons and that he would also engage himself in Controversie Grotius had only a design to take this M. d'Or after he had sent away Brandanus and this M. d Or was formerly of the Judgment of the Arminians on which account he came out of Sedan where he was Minister before the Synod of Dordrecht See Let. 410. p. 2. by the following Letters we see that Grotius made no use of him tho' he had a design so to do We shall end the Extract of what concerns the Person of Grotius by his Epitaph which he made himself and which is in Let. 536. p. 2. Grotius hic Hugo est Batavûm Captivus Exul Legatus Regni Suedia magna tui Concerning his works he telleth us himself that his Book of the Truth of the Christian Religion was translated not only into High Dutch French and English but even into Arabick and Persian to serve for the Conversion of Infidels See the 2 d. p. Letter 411 444 534. He saith also that the Queen of Swedland caused his Book de Iure Belli Pacis to be read which some Divines said included Socinian principles Grotius saith laughing thereat Fiet Regina Sociniana si quid Voetio Riveto Cleopenburgio credimus V. To come in fine to what is in the Letters of Grotius concerning Politicks we believe we may say to the publick what Peter Grotius Son to our Author esteeming so much the Letters which his Father had Written during his Ambassy that he said they were as excellent in respect to Policy as his Annotations upon the Gospel were in matters of Divinity It is what the Publick may Judge and whereof persons would yet judge better if divers places which undoubtedly contain the most important things were not written in figures or if the Author had not made use of invented names which are not easie to be understood M. du Maurier is of a sentiment very different since he saith that Grotius being withdrawn from the society of the Living and passing whole days and the most part of the Night with the Dead he could only send into Swedland news about new bridge in fine Latin We shall not undertake to decide which of the two had most reason because here we write a History and not an Apology Those who will take the pains to compare the news which Grotius writ to the Chancelof Swedland with the events of those times may judge thereof But it would not be surprising that an Ambassador who is obliged to write very often and hath not always considerable affairs should write news either not of great consequence or perhaps false Howbeit we shall here collect some political places which are spread through this great Volume In the 364. L. p. 1. we find a dispute something extraordinary concerning the power of sending Ambassadors The great Chancellor Oxenstiern who after the Death of Gustavus had a full power to do all he thought convenient for the good of the state to send Ambassadors c. sent Grotius into France Some difficulties were raised thereupon which Grotius refutes in this Letter by divers examples and particularly by that of the Ambassadors who having been sent from Flanders by arch-Arch-Dukes in vertue of the power they had received from Madrid were received in France and England as Ambassadors from the King of Spain Grotius then tells us in what manner he was received after he had been acknowledged Ambassador from the Crown of Swedland He sometimes makes political remarks upon the Nature of Nations and upon the manner wherewith one ought to treat with them as when he says of the French Let. 371. p. 1. that they are at first harder to be dealt with but that by little and little they become more tractable according as they perceive they get nothing by acting haughtily The same Nation saith our Author Let. 582. p. 1. boasts of its riches when it seeks for Allies but when any thing is to be paid 't is not asham'd to say that it is extreamly poor Galli cum socios quaerunt maximas praeferunt divitias Vbi solvendum est aliquid ultimam paupertatem So he speaks elsewhere in what manner the French do use the Court of Rome that when they do not obtain of them what they would they menace it People saith he might make use of this way to diminish the Pope's Power but for the most part when the affairs of private Men go on well those of the State are neglected It 's thought the Cardinal would frighten the Pope that he may make him here a perpetual Legate to the Apostolick See For the Romans of these days do through fear many things which they would never do with their good will Let. 1292. part 1. In this Letter also is the manner wherewith Cardinal Richelieu negotiated and how he employed the most famous Father Ioseph in the most difficult negotiations Grotius tells us that the Cardinal made use of him to begin the negotiations and to put them in a way of succeeding after which he would put in himself Butillerius Pater saith he Iosephus Capucinus negotia cruda accipiunt cocta ad Cardinalem deferunt Let. 375. p. 1. An example hereof may be seen in Let. 371. In the 380. is the History of a Conference which Grotius had with the Cardinal and F. Ioseph This Capuchin at first speaks there with the Ambassadour of Swedland and goes thro' the hardest part of the Contestation Afterwards the Cardinal intervened as to make them agree in proposing a Medium Dixit deinde Cardinalis they are the words of our Author videre se inter me Iosephum minus convenire velle se esse Conciliatorem mutuae inter nos benevolentiae After having observ'd in a Letter to Lewis Camerarius that the Swedes had run so much in debt that they were no more trusted and that the neighbouring Nations were not less drained he adds this political reflection Pro divitiis nobis erit eadem apud hostes paupertas the poverty of our Enemies will serve us instead of Riches Let. 884. p. 1. But there are few places of the Politicks that are stronger and livelier than a Description of the Court of France in 1635. whereof here
