the pattern of private Housekeepers and the narrow and unbeseeming Customes of their smaller Estates and Families That the wast of honor and the more then ordinary Fragments left in the Kings House as the remainders of the Dyet provided for him and his servants for the food and sustenance of the Poor and such as will be glad of it are but the requisites and appurtenances to the Majesty and Honor of a King that Sir Richard Weston afterwards Earle of Portland and Lord High Treasurer of England Sir John Woâ—stenholme Knight Sir William Pâ—tâ— and others commissioned by King James to make a Reiglement and Espaâ—gne in his house-keeping being men of known and great experience in the management of their own Estates could not then find any such things as have been since laid to the charge of the Kings Officers and Servants in his House that the pretensions not long after of better husbandry in the Kings House by some niggardly contrivances and serving some of the Tables with half a Goose instead of a whole came to no more at the last then the obtaining of the pretenders self ends and an Annuity of 500l per annum for thâ— lives of the pretender his wife and the longer liver of them that the Lord Chamberlain of the Kings Housholds yearly Fee of 100 l. the Treasurer of the Housholds yearly Fee of 123l 14s and the Cofferers yearly Fee of 100l measured and proportioned to the antient and former cheapness and means of livelihood would have even then been very deficient for the support of such persons of Honor and Quality if they had not had at the same time some seldome falling expectations of other favours and rewards from a Princely Master and a present liberal allowance for their Tables which although it doth now stand the King by the enhance of his rates and prices in a great deal more then it did formerly yet unto those that received those allowances for their Tables and Dyet it is no more then formerly for if an estimate were taken how much it would cost the King to make and encrease the Salaries and wages of his Servants and Officers of all ranks and sorts which in all the several Offices and Places and Dependencies about the persons of the King and Queen are above one thousand all or most of whom did when the Tables and Diets were allowed intercommune one with another and were with many also of their Servants fed with the Kings Victuals and Houshold Provisions to be according unto the rates of wages Salaries and as much as they are now taken and given in private Families and all were to be paid in money and nothing in dyet the Kings Treasury Purse or Estate would soon be brought to understand that such increased Allowances or other Allowances Pensions Wages and Salaries which must according to the rise and enhance of all manner of things conducing to the support and livelihood of such Servants be now necessarily paid and given over and above the antient Fees and Salaries would arise and amount unto more then all the charge of the Pourveyance or Compositions for them whether it were thirty and five thousand pounds a year or fifty thousand pounds per annum which was laid and charged upon the Counties or more then the King is unjustly supposed to be deceived or cheated by his servants or those which do direct the affairs of his Houshold when it cannot escape every private mans Judgement and experience in house-keeping that he that doth give his servants forty shillings per annum Salary and as much more to be added unto it in certain Fees and Profits well known and calculated to amount unto no more then another forty shillings per annum doth give his servant but four pounds per annum in the totall and is not at all cozened therein and that it would otherwise be no Honour to the King but a diminution of Majesty and a temptation or necessity enforced upon his servants to deceive him if the Serjeant of the Ewrie and the Serjeant of the Bakehouse to mention but a few of many should have but their antient and bare Salaries of 11 l. 8 s. 1 d. per annum and want their antiently allowed Avails and Perquisites That such short and now far too little Wages and Salaries to be given to the Kings Servants in their several honourable and worshipfull Stations would be unworthy for them to receive and dishonorable for the King to give And that the no inconsiderable summe of money which was yearly and usually saved by the venditions of the over-plus of the Pourveyance or Compositions for them and imployed in the buying of Linnen and Utensils for the service of the House the now yearly allowances for Diet to eight principall great Officers and to seaven of the next principall Officers and what his Majesty payeth yearly to others for Board-wages and what is enhanced and laid upon him by unreasonable rates and prices now that his Officers are constrained to buy with ready money and to pay a barbarous Interest and Brocage to provide it compared with what he now spends in his private allowances for his own and the Queens Diet and some other few yet allowed Tables will make a most certain and lamentable demonstration that the King and his Honor were gainers by the Pourveyance os Compositions for them and very great loosers by the taking of them away And that he did meet with a very ill Bargain by the Exchange of his Pourveyance or Compositions for them for a supposed recompence of Fifty thousand pounds per annum intended him out of the Moiety of the Excise of Ale Beer Perry c. But if the abuses committed by the Servants and Officers of the King within the house were so great or any thing at all as is pretended for as to the Pourveyors and those that act without dores the Law hath sufficiently provided they may certainly be rectified and brought under a reformation without the abolishing or totall taking away of the right use of them or that which cannot be spared or by any means be abandoned but may be dealt with as we do by our Wines Victuals or Apparel which as necessaries of life are in their right use to be kept and reteyned notwithstanding any misusage of them Or if the Pourveyance or Compositions for them were so much diverted from the use intended by them yet that will not be any reason for the quitting of them without a due exchange or recompence for that if they were all of them as is meerly fained or fanciâ—d mispent or misimployed yet those that do mispend them and they that have the benefit of them not that I would be an Advocate to justifie the selling of the Kings meat or houshold provisions unto any in the Neighbourhood or any accursed cheatings of the King which I wish might be punished as Felony are neither Enemies or Strangers to the Nation but the Kings Subjects and

had gotten away a great part of the Revenues thereof did by their Benevolences for some years after enable the Bishops thereof in some tolerable degree to maintain their Hospitalities And our long ago departed Ancestors who took it ill in the Reign of King John with whom they had so much and more then they should contended for their Liberties that Hubert Arch-bishop of Canterbury should keep a better House and Feast at Easter then the King And that Cardinal Woolsey in the Reign of King Henry the Eight should keep as great a state at Court as the King exercise as great an Authority in the Country for Pourveyance as the King and forbid Pourveyance to be made in his own Jurisdictions which made an addition to the Articles of High Treason or great Misdemeanors charged upon him by the Commons in Parliament brought up to the House of Peers by Sir Anthony Fitz-Herbert afterward a learned Judge of the Court of Common pleas So that our King may not for want of his antient rights of

Magnificence which Jacob Almansor the learned Arabian King who lived in Anno 654. and conquered Spain was in his swarthy Dominions so carefull to preserve as after that he had given audience unto Suitors which were some dayes in every week he usually caused a publique cry to be made that all of them as well rich as poor should stay and take their refections and to that end furnished Tables for them with such abundance of provisions as became the house of so mighty a King And that if any forreign King or Prince should as Cecily Sister to the King of Sweden and Wife to the Marquess of Baden

other things and so unwilling to draw monyes out of her Subjects purses as she lost the fair hopes and opportunity of regaining Calais which was so much desired by her was very plentifully and magnificent and with the allowance of many more Tables then have been in the times of her Successors they may return into their Country as that Princess did with a wonder at it and not be constrained

the Reign of King Henry the 3. bring an Assise or Action against him for it for as for our Industrious Speed setting forth in his History of England that Rhese ap Gruffith Prince of Wales coming out of Wales as far as Oxford to treat of a Peace with King Richard the First did take it in so high a scorn and indignation that the King came not in person to meet him as he returned home into his own Country without saluting the King though Earl John the Kings only Brother had with much honour conducted him from the Marches of Wales thither and that by that means the hopes of the expected peace vanished and came unto nothing hath observed that the meanest from whom love or service is expected will again expect regard And therefore the care of our Kings was not a little imployed in that way of imparting of their favours and increasing and cherishing the love and good will of their people when King Henry the Seventh whose troubles and tosses of fortune before he came unto the Crown had together with his learning and princely education made him a great Master in Policy and good Government and one of the wisest Kings that ever swaied the English Scepter did in his prudent Orders concerning his Court and Houshold and the State and Magnificence which he desired to be observed therein communicated unto me by my worthy and learned Friend William Dugdale Esquire Norroy King at Armes out of an ancient Manuscript sometimes in the custody of Charles de Somerset Knight Lord Herbert and Gower Chamberlain unto that King amongst many other Orders for the honour of the King and his House ordain that If any straunger shall come from any Noble-man or other the Gentilmen Huysshers ought to sette him in suche place convenient within the Kyngs Chamber as is mete for hym by the discrecion of the Chamberlain and Huyssher and to comaunde service for hym after his degree and the sayd Huyssher ought to speke to the Kings Almoigner Kerver and Sewer to reward hym from the Kings Board this is to say if the said Straunger happen to come whan the Kyng is at dynner Item The Gentilman Huyssher if there come any honourable personnes to the Kyng at any other tyme they ought to call with thaym the sayd personnes to the Seller Pantry and Buttry and there to commaund forth such brede mete and drynke as by his discretion shall be thought metely for thaym and this in no wise not to be with sayd in noon of thies Offices aforesayd It is to the Kings honor Item that no Gentilman Huyssher bee so hardy to take any commaundement upon him but that it may be with the Kings honor by hys discretion in these matiers to myspende the Kings vitail but where as it ought to be and if he doo he is nat worthy to occupy that rowme but for to abide the punishment of my Lord Chamberlain Item A Gentilman Huyssher ought to commaund Yeomen Huysshers and Yeomen to fetche bred ale and wine at afternoon for Lords and other Gentilmen being in the Kings Chamber whan the caas soâ— shall requyre Which and the like Magnificences of Hospitality in the Houses and Courts of our Kings and Princes supported by the Pourveyances without which the elder Kings of England before the Conquest could not have been able to susteyn the charge of their great and yearly solemn Festivals at Christmas Easter and Pentecost when ex more obsequii vinculo antiquissimo as that great and learned Antiquary Sir Henry Spelman hath observed by duty and antient custome the Lords and Barons of England did never fail to come to the Kings Palace where the Magna Concilia wittena gemotes conventus sapientum now called Parliaments were at those times to be holden and kept cum ad Curiam personam ejus exornandum tum ad consulendum de negotiis regni statuendumque prout fuerat necessarium providere de rebus illis Rex solebat corona redimitus profastu Regio se in omnibus exhibere for the honor of the King and his Court who then with his Crown upon his head and other Princely habiliments did use to shew himself unto the people and advise what was necessary to be done for the good of the Kingdom And was such an attendant upon the Grandeur and Honour of their Monarchy as it began with it and continued here amongst us till the Councill of some foolish and factious Shrubs had by a fire kindled in our then unhappy Kingdome overturned our Cedars of Libanon and made an accursed and wicked Bramble their Protector and was so necessary to the Government and Authority of our Kings and the encrease and preservation of the love and obedience of the people as we find it neither repined nor murmured at in the Reign of King Alfred who being of an almost unimitable piety and prudence and to whom this Nation ows a gratefull memory for his division of the Kingdom into Shires and Hundreds and for many a Politique Constitution did now almost 800 years ago keep a most Princely and magnificent House and a numerous company of Servants gave enterteynment of diet and lodging to many of the sons of his Nobility who were therein trayned up to all manner of Courtly and honourable exercises had three Cohorts or Bands of Life-guards every Cohort according to the ancient computation consisting if they were Horse of 132 and of Foot of a great many more the first Company attending in or about his Court or House night and day for a moneth and returning aftewards home to their own occasions tarried there by the space of two moneths the second Cohort doing likewise as the first and the third as the second by their turns and courses and had a good allowance of money and victualls in the House or Court of the King who had his ministros nobiles qui in curio Regio vicissim commorabantur in pluribus ministrantes ministeriis noble and great Officers in his Court which attended in their courses and took so much care also for them as in his last Will and Testament he gave cuilibet Armigerorum suorum to every one of his Esquires 100 marks Or that King Hardi Canutus caused his Tables to be spread four times every day and plentiously furnished with Cates and commanded that his Courtiers Servants and Guests should rather have superfluities then want any thing That William Rufus when he had built Westminster Hall 270 foot in length and 74 in breadth thought it not large enough for a Dyning Room King Richard the Second kept a most Royall Christmas where was every day spent 26 or 28 Oxen 300 Sheep with Fowl beyond number and to his Houshold came every day to meat ten thousand people as appeared by the Messes told out from the Kitchin unto three hundred Servitors and was able about two years before when the Times began to be
and necessity that they dined with Duke Humphrey upon a Traditional mistake that the Monument of Humphrey Duke of Glocester was in the middle Isle of St. Pauls Church in London when it appears by the Armes engraven therein to be a Beuchamp Earl of Warwick And that the King of England Scotland France and Ireland should be necessitated to make a small Room in White hall a place to eat his meat in and be contented with ten dishes of meat for the first and second Courses for him and his Royall Consort at Dinner when most of the Nobility have as much or more and the richest part of the Gentry and most of the rich Merchants and Tradesmen of London do not think such a proportion in their ordinary way of Diet to be more then sufficient And might remember that the Royall Pourveyance is and hath been as well due to a Prince in his Palace as in the Field or his Tents and more deserved by a Prince in the time of Peace and protecting us in the blessings enjoyed by it then it is or can be in the time of Warre when every man is willing enough to offer it to a marching Army that doth but hope and endeavour to defend them And that God was so displeased with the refusers of it as he resolved that an Ammonite or Moabite should never enter into his holy and blessed Congregation because they met not the children of Israel with bread and water in the way when they came forth out of Egypt That it was reckoned as a crime upon the People of Israel that they shewed not kindness to the house of Zerubbaal namely Gideon according to all the goodness which he shewed unto Israel That it was not only Solomons stately Throne of Ivory over-laid with the best Gold adorned with the Images of golden Lions that supported it nor the Forty thousand stalles of horses for his Chariots and twelve thousand Horsemen and the Tributes and Presents sent from many of the Nations round about him but his Royall Pourveyance and Provision for his Houshold the meat of his Table sitting of his Servants the manner of their sitting at meat and the attendance of his Ministers and their Apparel which among many other necessary Circumstances of State and Emanations of Power and Majesty joyned with the other parts of his Regall Magnificence raised the wonder in the Queen of Sheba and took away her spirits from her That to overburden our Head or heap necessities upon him may bring us within the blame and censure of the Judicious Bodin a man not meanly learned in Politiques who decrying all unbecoming Parsimonies in a King or his Family delivers his opinion that sine Majestatis ipsius contemptu fieri non potest ea res enim peregrinos ad principem aspernandum subditos ad deficiendum excitare consuevit that to lessen the number of a Kings Servants or Attendants cannot be done without a contempt or diminution of Majesty it self which may cause Strangers to despise him and his own Subjects to rebell against him That our Ancestors the Germans did well understand what a benefit the Common people had by the Princes Honour and Reputation when they were so zealous of it and ipsa plerunque fama belli profligant many times found it to be a cause of lessening or preventing Warres And St. Hicrom was not mistaken when he concluded that ubi honor non est ibi contemptus ubi contemptus ibi frequens injuria ubi indignatio ibi quies nulla where there is not honour there is contempt and where there is contempt there are Injuries and where anger and wrath are there is no manner of quiet That it must needs be a Prognostick of a most certain ruine to the Nation to be so addicted to our pride and vanities as to take all we can from the head to bestow it upon the more ignoble and inferiour Members Or to be so infatuated and so farre fallen out with reason as to believe that they can enjoy either health or safety when the Head hath that taken from it which should procure it That our Ancestors who were so great Observers of their duties in the payment of their Tithes as to take more then an ordinary care to give and bequeath at their deaths a 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 or Symbolum Animae as a Mortuary or Compensation pro substractiâ—ne decimâ—rum personâ—lium nec non oblationum for Tithes and Offerings the Pourveyance for those which served at the Altaâ— negligently or against their wills forgotten to such a value as their dextrarium ferro coopertum best horse carrying the Armes not Escutcheons of its Lords and Master or if the party deceasing were noâ— of so great an estate gave meliorem bovem his best Oxe and with such a solemnity as those or the like Mortuaries were led or driven before the Corps when it was carried to be interred or if not given in specie were sure to be redeemed with money of which Thomas de Bello Campo Earl of Warwick in anno 43 of the Reign of King Edward the Third was so mindfull as he did by his last Will and Testament give to every Church within his multitude of Manours his best Beast which should then be found in satisfaction of his Tithes forgotten to be paid would ever have made it their business to withdraw or hinder their Oblations and Duty of Pourveyance to God Almighties Vicegerent the Keeper of both Tables and the Protector of them or rejoyce in the Bargain which hath been made for the Kings acquittal of it or by plowing over the roots or by the filthy smoke and vapours of some particular private ugly Interests have rejoyced in blasting and destroying that Royall Oak of Hospitality which like the mighty Tree in Nebuchadnezars Vision reached unto Heaven and the sight thereof to the ends of all the Earth had fair leaves and much fruit yielding meat for many under which the Beasts of the field dwelt and upon whose branches the Fâ—wls of heaven had their habitation to the end they might make their own fiâ—es and
