Postscript MY Lord Mr. Murray since came unto me to whom I shewed this Letter and told him I would send it unto you to be shewed unto the King and the Prince I find him willing to run all courses Priesthood onely excepted If the King will dispence with him my Letter notwithstanding I humbly beseech his Majestie to write a Letter unto me as a warrant to admit him only Ad Curam et Regimen Collegii instead of the other words Ad Curam animarum I schooled him soundly against Puritanisme which he disavowes though somewhat faintly I hope his Highnesse and the King will second it The Lord Keeper to the Duke about the Liberties of Westminster 6. May. 1621. My most Noble Lord I Humbly beseech your Lordship to be a little sensible of those injurious affronts offered without any shew of equity unto this poor Liberty of VVestminster And for Gods sake let me not want that protection which not your Lordship only but the two Cicils and the Earl of Sommerset who neither regarded the Church Learning nor Honour in any measure as you do have ever afforded every Dean of this Church When I had to my thinking given the Knight Marshal full and too much satisfaction this day a Letter was offered to the Table in my presence violently pursued by the Lord Steward and the Earl Marshal to command this liberty which had stood unquestioned these 700 years to shew reason to Mr. Attourney and Mr. Solliciter why they prescribe against the Knight Marshal A Course as my Lord President said openly not to be offered to any subject of England It is our Charter and freehold of inheritance to be shewed only in a Court of Justice and at the Kings Bench which we are very ready to do And we may as well be questioned by a Letter from the Councel for all the Land we have as for this My Lord the jurisdiction of this place brings not a penny to my purse but it hath brought much sorrow to my heart and now teares to my eyes that I should be that unfortunate Contemptible man who for all the King and your Lordships favour and the true pains I take in answer thereunto must be trampled down above all the Deans that lived in this place Nor would it ever grieve me if I had deserved it from these Lords by the least disrespect in all the world I beseech you for the Churches sake and your Honours sake to be sensible hereof and to know of the Bishop of Winchester London Duresme Mr. Packer or Sir Robert Pye whether ever any question hath been made to this liberty in this kind If a Letter had been recorded to question the same when the Lord Admiral was Steward and the Lord Keeper Dean thereof judge you in your Wisdom what would become thereof in future posterity c.

My most noble Lord YEsterday upon the receipt of your Lordships Letters of the 19th of this instant concerning the hastning of the businesse of the original Writs I sent presently for Mr. Attourney and Mr. Solliciter who were altogether unprovided for their parts of the dispatch and are casually forced so to be because three several Officers in whose records they are to search are now out of Town and do not return yet these 7. daies But your Lordship shall not fail to have all things concluded 3. weeks before the Term and I will of purpose put off all general sealing until it be effected In the mean time your Lordships Letter notwithstanding it will be nothing for your Lordships case to have Sir George Chaworth any way interested in this office of the originals but I hold it fitter to leave it as it is in Law and Equity forfeited for non-payment of rent in his Majesties hands for upon that issue I do not doubt but my Lord of St. Albons and Sir George will be content to hear reason I have received extraordinary respects and expressions from my Noble Lord the Lord Marquesse Hamilton which doth exceedingly comfort and encourage me to go on with some more alacrity through the difficulties of this restlesse place I beseech your Lordship who is Causa Causarum the first Cause that sets all these other Causes of my Comforts in Going to take notice of the same and to undertake this favour to be placed upon a poor honest hearted man who would if he were any way able requite it Gods blessings and the prayers of a poor Bishop ever attend your Lordship c. Postscript THe Spanish Embassadour took the alarum very speedily of the titulary Romish Bishop and before my departure from his house at Islington whither I went privately to him did write both to Rome and Spain to prevent it Sir Tobie Mathewes But I am afraid that Tobie will prove but an Apocryphal and no Canonical intelligencer acquainting the State with this project for the Jesuites rather then for Jesus sake The Lord Keeper to the Duke about the Lord Treasurer Septemb. 9th 1622. My most Noble Lord THat I neither wrote unto your Lordship nor waited upon your Lordship sithence my intolerable scandalizing by the Lord Treasurer this is the true and only cause I was so moved to have all my diligent service pains and unspotted justice thus rewarded by a Lord who is reputed wise that I have neither slept read written or eaten any thing since that time until the last night that the Ladies sent for me I believe of purpose to VVallingford house and put me out of my humour I have lost the love and affection of my men by seizing upon their Papers perusing all their answers to Petitions casting up their moneys received by way of fees even to half Crowns and two shillings and finding them all to be poor honest Gentlemen that have maintained themselves in my service by the greatnesse of my pains and not the greatnesse of their fees They are most of them landed men that do not serve me for gain but for experience and reputation And desire to be brought to the Test to shew their several books and to be confronted by any one man with whom they contracted or from whom they demanded any Fee at all The greatest summe in their books is five pounds and those very few and sent unto them from Earls and Barons All the rest are some 20 s. 10 s. 5 s. 2 s. 6 d. and 2 s. And this is the oppression in my house that the Kingdom of the Common Lawyers peradventure who have lost I confesse hereby 20000 l. at the least saved in the purses of the Subjects doth now groan under Now I humbly beseech your Lordship to peruse this paper here inclosed and the issue I do joyn with the Lord Treasurer and to acquaint at

him too unsufferably God from Heaven blesse you Remember your Deanerie and Dean of Westminster c. The Lord Keeper to the Duke concerning the Earl Marshals place 1. Septemb. 1621. My most Noble Lord I Beseech your Lordship to interpret this Letter well and fairly which no malice though never so provoked but my duty to his Majestie and love to your Lordship hath drawn from me both which respects as long as I keep inviolably I will not omit for the fear of any man or the losse of any thing in this world to do any act which my Conscience shall inform me to belong unto that place wherein the King by your favour hath intrusted me I received this morning two Commands from his Majestie the one about a Pension of 2000 l. yearly and the other concerning the office of the Earle Marshal both conferred on the Right Honourable the Earle of Arundel For the former although this is a very unseasonable time to receive such large Pensions from so bountiful a King and that the Parliament so soon approaching is very like to take notice thereof and that this pension might under the correction of your better judgment have been conveniently deferred until that Assembly had been over Yet who am I that should question the wisedom and bounty of my Master I have therefore sealed the same praying secretly unto God to make his Majestie as abounding in wealth as he is in goodnesse But the latter I dare not seale my good Lord until I heare your Lordships resolution to these few Questions Whether his Majestie by expressing himself in the delivery of the staffe to my Lord of Arundel that he was moved thereunto for the easing of the rest of the Comissioners who had before the execution of that office did not imply that his Majestie intended to impart unto my Lord no greater power then was formerly granted to the Lords Comissioners If it were so this Pattent should not have exceeded their Pattent whereas it doth inlarge it self beyond that by many dimensions Whether it is his Majesties meaning that the Pattent leaping over the powers of the three last Earles Essex Shrewsbery and Sommerset should refer onely to my Lords own Ancestors Howards and Mowbrayes Dukes of Norfolk who clamed this place by a way of inheritance The usual reference of Pattents being unto the last and immediate predecessour and not unto the remote whose powers in those unsettled and troublesome times are vage uncertain and unpossible to be limited Whether it is his Majesties meaning that this great Lord should bestow those offices settled of a long time in the Crown Sir Edward Zouch his in the Court Sir George Reinel's in the Kings Bench and divers others All which this new Pattent doth sweep away being places of great worth and dignity Whether that his Majesties meaning and your Lordships that my Lord Stewards place shall be for all his power of Judicature in the Verge either altogether extinguished or at leastwise subordinated unto this new Office A point considerable because of the greatnesse of that person and his neernesse in bloud to his Majestie and the Prince his Highnesse Lastly Whether it be intended that the offices of the Earl Marshal of England and the Marshal of the Kings house which seem in former times to have been distinct offices shall be now united in this great Lord A power limited by no Law or Record but to be searcht out from Chronicles Antiquaries Heralds and such obsolete Monuments and thereupon held these 60 years for my Lord of Essex his power was clearly bounded and limited unfit to be revived by the policy of this State These Questions if his Majestie intended onely the renewing of this Commission of the Earl Marshals in my Lord of Arundel are material and to the purpose But if his Majestie aymed withal at the reviving of this old office A la ventura whose face is unknown to the people of this age upon the least intimation from your Lordship I will seal the Patent And I beseech your Lordship to pardon my discretion in this doubt and irresolution It is my place to be wary what innovation passeth the Seal I may offend that great Lord in this small stay but your Lordship cannot but know how little I lose when I lose but him whom without the least cause in the world I have irreconcileably lost already All that I desire is that you may know what is done and I will ever do what your Lordship being once informed shall direct as becometh c. That there is a difference betwixt the Earl Marshal and the Marshall of the Kings house See Lamberts Archiron or of the High Courts of Justice in England Circa Medium The Marshal of England and the Constable are united in a Court which handleth onely Duels out of the Realm matters within the Realm as Combats Blazon Armorie c. but it may meddle with nothing tryable by the Lawes of the Land The Marshal of the Kings Houshold is united in a Court with the Seneschal or Steward which holds plea of Trespasses Contracts and Covenants made within the Verge and that according to the Lawes of the Land Vid. Artic. Super Cart. C. 3. 4. 5. We do all of us conceive the King intended the first place only for this great Lord and the second to remain in the Lord Stewards managing But this new Patent hath comprehended them both This was fit to be presented to your Lordship The Lord Keeper to the Duke 16. Decemb. 1621. Most Noble Lord I Have seen many expressions of your love in other mens Letters where it doth most naturally and purely declare it self since I received any of mine own It is much your Lordship should spare me those thoughts which pour out themselves in my occasions But to have me and my affaires in a kind of affectionate remembrance when your Lordship is saluting of other Noble men is more then ever I shall be able otherwaies to requite then with true prayers and best wishes I received this afternoon by Sir John Brook a most loving Letter from your Lordship but dated the 26th of Novemb. imparting your care over me for the committing of one Beeston for breach of a Decree My Noble Lord Decrees once made must be put in execution or else I will confesse this Court to be the greatest imposture and Grievance in this Kingdom The damned in Hell do never cease repining at the Justice of God nor the prisoners in the Fleet at the Decrees in Chancery of the which hell of prisoners this one for antiquity and obstinacy may passe for a Lucifer I neither know him nor his cause but as long as he stands in Contempt he is not like to have any more liberty His Majesties last Letter though never so full of honey as I find by passages reported out of the same being as yet not so happy as to have a sight thereof hath notwithstanding afforded those Spiders which infest that noble
upon this subject in hope that this I have written shall serve once for all In that matter concerning the Countesse of Argile which it pleased your Honour to recommend unto my Care I have done as much already as I can for the present We must of necessitie with a little patience expect the successe whereof your Honour shall in due time be punctually advertized In the mean while I do with all reverence desire your Honour to excuse the tediousnesse of this Letter And so take my leave Your Honours very humble and ready to be commanded W. Trumball Bruxels 21 31. of March 1618 1619. Mr. Trumball to the Secretarie Right Honourable THose that are employed in such place as I am must admit all manner of men into their company And the Oath I have taken to his Majestie will not permit me to conceal any thing from his knowledge that cometh to mine and may in any sort have relation to his Royal service For these Considerations I assume the boldnesse so soon to renew your Honours trouble after the dispatch of those Volumes of Letters which I sent you yesterday by one of my servants This Bearer de la Forrest is better known to your Honour then to my self although I remember many years ago to have seen him in England During his stay in this Town he brought unto me a certain French Gentleman calling himself the Viscount of L'orme and Sir De la Pommeraye who hath by his own relation been a great Navigator and been authorized by 18. of the chief Pyrats in the Levant to search for their pardon and retreat into some Christian Countrey being sorry for the ill they have done and desirous to spend the rest of their daies in peace With this Commission he came into France and there travelled so far with the King and his Ministers as he obtained a general abolition for the said Pyrates a safe Conduct to bring them into his Dominions and a procuration which I have seen under the great Seal of France to treat and conclude with them upon certain conditions But he being envied by some Grandees of that Kingdom and by misfortune happening to kill a man he was forced as he pretendeth for the safety of his life to flie into these Countries before he could bring that work to perfection And being now disinabled to return thither again he desireth to make a tryal whether his Majestie will vouchsafe to lend his ear to that Treatie and grant unto the said Pyrates a general Pardon To which effect he sendeth over La Forrest and hath intreated me to accompany him with my Letters to my Lord Admiral your Honor and Mr. Secretarie Calvert For retribution of this grace the said Pyrates offer to give 45000 l sterling to be shared amongst you three or to be disposed of as his Majestie shall appoint But your Honour may see the Conditions proposed to the French King were more advantagious For they were to give him their Ships Artillerie and Munition and to furnish means to set out some men of War for his service And I see no reason in case his Majestie should encline to such capital offenders and common enemies why he should not have as much or more benefit then another Prince the greatest part of them being his Vassals Your Honour if you please may peruse these adjoyned Papers and impart the contents of them to my Lord Admiral They agree with their Originals and if his Majestie do not taste this overture there is no more harm done for any thing I can perceive then the losse of my labour to peruse and subscribe them There remaineth onely two points wherein I should speak to your Honour the one is that this matter may be concealed from the French Embassadour Mounsieur le Count de Tilliers for fear of ruining de L'Orme The other with gratifying La Forrest with the pay of a Pacquet if your Honour shall think it meet for the carrying of these Letters who saith your Honour is his great Patron and hath promised him a good turn Mounsieur de L'Orme hath given him power to sollicite this businesse and procure him an answer wherein I joyn my humble prayer that the poor man may not here languish in hopes and spend his money to no purpose When I shall know whether his Majestie will rellish this overture or not I will write thereof more largely if there be cause otherwise let it remain as it was before In the mean while I humbly take my leave And rest Your Honours In all humblenesse to be commanded W. Trumball Bruxels 23. of Octob. 1619. Sir Thomas Roe to the Marquesse of Buckingham Lord Admiral My Lord I Can give your Lordship no great account of any thing that hath occurred since my departure I was bold to write to Mr. Secretarie Calvert from Maliga of the great increase of the Pyrates in those Seas and of the danger of the Merchants with my own thoughts if his Majestie have any farther purpose to attempt their destruction which is both honourable and necessarie if these Trades or the other of Spain to the South of the North-Cape be of any consequence to his Majesties Kingdomes if they be suffered to increase they will brave the Armies of Kings at Sea in a few years and attempt even the Coasts and Shoares with peril And because they carry the name only of Thieves they are yet contemned or neglected but they will become a dangerous enemie when they shall rob with Fleets and therefore would be in time considered The Spaniards now make great offers to continue the Contract though their performance be slow and their own Estates chiefly interessed yet besides the danger and ruine of the Merchant it is considerable that this Army increasing is at the obedience of the Grand Seignior the common Enemy who hath no strength but Gallies I know your Lordship will collect enough out of this without further pressure The Armado's of Spain Naples and Sicily have been in the Archipelago the Turks Forces absent in the black Sea Yet they have done nothing of consequence taken a few Carmisales and slaves and are returned to the Port where Don Philibert of Savoy Generalissimo is present who is made Viceroy of Sicily with absolute power to dispose of all offices without attendance from Spain which is more then Vice-Re He hath used me for his Majesties honour with very great respect as I have in particular advised Mr. Secretarie Among many courtesies finding 13. English Captives in the Gallies I thought it my duty to succour them His Highnesse at the first instance to expresse his good affection to my Master gave them to me all free which I think is a good work and not ordinary I beseech your Lordship that his Majestie may be pleased to take knowledge of it into Spain for the Princes honour that he may in the like occasion not think himself neglected The advice from Constantinople is seconded of the overthrow of the
might but ought to grant a dispensation to this marriage but now we are surcharged with a number of new Articles from Rome and in the mean time the Dispensation is as far off as ever it was His Majestie hopes that you are not ignorant that the treatie is between him and your Master He hath no treatie with Rome neither lyes it in his way to dispute with them upon this question yet that his readinesse to imbrace your Masters friendship may the better appear he is contented to yield to so many of their demands as either his Conscience Honour or safetie can permit if so the King your Master shall think it necessarie But on the other part we three remember that when as you first moved this match unto him and perswaded him to break off with France you then promised that he should be pressed to nothing in this businesse that should not be agreeable to his conscience and honour and stand with the love of his people As to the particular Articles new added at Rome I will not clogg this paper with them which I fear without them will be too troublesome unto you For what his Majesties opinion is of them his Majesties Embassadour there will particularly acquaint you But whereas the Pope desires in the end of his Articles that he may see what ponum publicum the King our Master will grant unto that may perswade to grant this dispensation I will remit it to your conscience and knowledge whether if the favours his Majestie daily grants to those of his religion and is resolved still to continue if not to increase them if they shall by their good behaviour deserve it be not a real bonum publicum considering that if the match should break off which God forbid his Majestie would be importunatly urged by his people to whose assistance he must have his recourse to give life and execution to all the penal Lawes now hanging upon their heads It only rests now that as we have put the ball to your foot you take a good and speedie resolution there to hasten a happy conclusion of this match The Prince is now two and twenty years of age and so a year more then full ripe for such a businesse the King our Master longeth to see an issue proceed from his Loins and I am sure you have reason to expect more friendship from the posterity that shall proceed from him and that little Angel your Infanta then from his Majesties Daughters Children Your friends here are all discomforted with this long delay your enemies are exasperated and irritated thereby and your neighbours that envie the felicity of both Kings have the more leisure to invent new Plots for the Crosse and hinderance of this happy businesse And for the part of your true friend and servant Buckingham I am become odious already and counted a betrayer both of King and Countrey To conclude all with I will use a similitude of hawking which you will easily understand being a great Faulkoner I told you already that the Prince is God be thanked extreamly sharp set upon this Match and you know that a Hawke when she is first dressed and made ready to flie having a great will upon her if the Faulkoner do not follow it at that time she is in danger to be dulled for ever after Take heed therefore lest in the fault of your delayes there Our Prince and Faulcon-gentle that you know was thought slow enough to begin to be eager after the Foeminine prey become not so dull upon these delayes as in short time hereafter he will not stoop to the Lure though it were thrown out to him And here I will end to you my sweet friend as I do in my prayers to God Onely in thee is my trust and say as it is written on the outside of the Pacquets Haste Haste Post-haste Conde de Gondomar to the Duke 13. Febr. 1625. Most Excellent Sir AT last Sir the Earl of Gondomar goes for England There will be many good discourses made in Holland about this voyage But the truth is that the intention of his journey is not to offend any one but only to desire and procure peace and the publique good And onely with this intent the King my Master Commands me to go thither and I go with a great deal of joy as well for this as for to kisse his Majesties and his Highnesse his hands and your Excellencies in particular And therefore I do appoint for the field of our Battail your Excellencies Gallerie over the Thames where I hope your Excellencie shall see that the Earl of Gondomar is an honest man and that he hath been is and ever will be a faithful and true servant and friend to Sir George Villiers Duke of Buckingham whom God preserve many happy years The Countesse my Wife and my self kisse my Lady the Countesse and my Lady Dutchesse their hands Your Excellencies Constant and faithful servant Gondomar Padre Maestre at Rome to the Spanish Embassadour in England 12. June 1621. My Lord I Have received two Letters from your Lordship the one of the 15th of March brought me by Mr. George Gage and the other of the 30. of April which came by the Ordinarie In both which Letters I have received a special favour from you and much comfort The coming of Mr. Gage hath given me infinite contentment then which there could nothing have happened more fitly and to the purpose for the matter which is in negotiation nor any man have come hither that could better advance the businesse then he as well in respect of his good affection as for his wisdom and dexterity in all things And if the King of Great Brittain will withal help now a little the businesse will be quickly done and in a good manner I beseech your Lordship preach to him a Christian Sermon as is most needful for there comes from thence divers wayes such reports thither that I am ashamed and out of countenance in the streets as I go and they do me a favour that they do not stone me knowing that I am treating and labouring this businesse at the same time when the poor Catholiques are so cruelly used in England Scotland and Ireland And when I excuse it that it is not by the Kings order but by the abuse and malice of some ill affected Ministers it will not be received neither do they want Replies Besides there is a rumour all over Rome that the King in a Speech which he made at the beginning of the Parliament affirmed publiquely That for all this marriage with Spain the Catholique party in England should not be in one jott better condition then they are But I cannot be yet discouraged My confidence is in the King and in the desire which I know he hath to procure a good Wife for his Son And now that the time is come let him play the part of a Couragious Wooer and frustrate the intentions and desires of all those

duty which you owe unto your most gracious Soveraign a duty imposed upon you not by nature and policie only but by the religious and sacred bond wherein the divine Majesty of Almighty God hath by the rule of Christianity obliged you For the four first your constant resolution may perhaps move you to esteem them as light but being well weighed they are not light nor lightly to be regarded And for the four last it may be that the cleerness of your own conscience may seem to content your self but that is not enough for these duties stand not only in contemplation or inward meditation and cannot be performed but by external actions and where that faileth the substance also faileth This being your present state and condition what is to be done what is the remedy my good Lord I lack judgment and wisdom to advise you but I will never want an honest true heart to wish you well nor being warranted by a good conscience will fear to speak that I think I have begun plainly be not offended if I proceed so Bene cedit qui cedit tempori and Seneca saith Cedendum est fortunae The medicine and remedy is not to contend and strive but humbly to yield submit Have you given cause and yet take a scandal unto you then all you can be is too little to make satisfaction Is cause of scandal given unto you yet policie duty and religion enforce you to sue yield and submit to our Soveraign between whom and you there can be no equal proportion of duty where God requires it as a principal duty and care to himself and when it is evident that great good may ensue of it to your friends your self your Country and your Soveraign and extreme harm by the contrary There can be no dishonour to yield but in denying dishonour and impiety The difficulty my good Lord is to conquer your self which is the height of true valour and fortitude whereunto all your honorable actions have tended Do it in this and God will be pleased her Majesty no doubt well satisfied your Country will take good and your Friends comfort by it and your self I mention you last for that of all these you esteem yourself least shall receive honour and your Enemies if you have any shall be disappointed of their bitter sweet hope I have delivered what I think simply and plainly I leave you to determine according to your own wisdom if I have erred it is error amoris and not amor erroris Construe and accept it I beseech you as I meant it not as an advice but as an opinion to be allowed or cancelled at your pleasure If I might conveniently have conferred with your self in person I would not have troubled you with so many idle blots Whatsoever you judge of this my opinion yet be assured my desire is to further all good means that may tend to your Lordships good And so wishing you all happiness and honour I cease Your Lordships most ready and faithful though unable poor Friend Tho. Egerton Cust Sigil The Earles Answer MY very good Lord though there is not that man this day living whom I would sooner make Judge of any question that might concern me then your selfe yet you must give me leave to tell you that in some cases I must appeal from all earthly Judges And if in any then surely in this when the highest Judge on earth hath imposed upon me the heaviest punishment without triall or hearing Since then I must either answer your Lordships Arguments or else forsake mine own just defence I wil force mine-aking head to do me service for an hour I must first deny my discontentment which was forced to be an humorous discontent and in that it was unseasonable or is so long continuing your Lordship should rather condole with me then expostulate naturall seasons are expected here below but violent and unreasonable storms come from above There is no tempest to the passionate indignation of a Prince nor yet at any time so unseasonable as when it lighteth on those that might expect an harvest of their carefull and painfull labours He that is once wounded must needs feel smart till his hurt be cured or the part hurt become sensless But cure I expect none her Majesties heart being obdurate and be without sense I cannot being of flesh and blood But you may say I may aim at the end I do more then aim for I see an end of all my fortunes I have set an end to all my desires In this course do I any thing for mine enemies when I was present I found them absolute and therefore I had rather they should triumph alone then have me attendant upon their Chariots Or do I leave my friends When I was a Courtier I could sell them no fruit of my love and now that I am an Hermit they shall bear no envie for their love to me Or do I forsake my self because I do not enjoy my self Or do I overthrow my fortunes because I build not a fortune of paper-walls which every puff of wind bloweth down Or do I ruinate mine honor because I leave following the pursuit or wearing the false mark or the shadow of honor Do I give courage or comfort to the enemies because I neglect my self to encounter them or because I keep my heart from business though I cannot keep my fortune from declining No no I give every one of those considerations his due right and the more I weigh them the more I find my self justified from offending in any of them As for the two last objections that I forsake my Countrey when it hath most need of me and fail in that indissoluble duty which I owe to my Soveraign I answer That if my Countrey had at this time any need of my publick service her Majesty that governeth it would not have driven me to a private life I am tied to my Countrey by two bonds one publick to discharge carefully and industriously that trust which is committed to me the other private to sacrifice for it my life and carkasse which hath been nourished in it Of the first I am free being dismissed by her Majesty Of the other nothing can free me but death and therefore no occasion of performance shall sooner offer it self but I will meet it halfe way The indissoluble duty I owe unto her Majesty the service of an Earle and of Marshall of England and I have been content to do her the service of a Clerk but I can never serve her as a villain or a slave But you say I must give way to time So I do for now that I see the storm come I have put my self into harbour Seneca saith we must give way to Fortune I know that Fortune is both blind and strong and therefore I go as far as I can out of the way You say the remedy is not to strive I neither strive nor seek for remedy But you say I must yeild

IAMES by the grace of God c. To our right trusty and welbebeloved Cozen Robert Lord Viscount Lisle Lord Chamberlain to our dear Consort the Queen and our Governour of our Town of Vlushing and of the Castle of Ramakins greeting Whereas we by Our Letters Patents sealed with Our great Seal of England bearing date at Westminster the 22. day of April in the fifth year of Out reign of England France and Ireland of Scotland the 36. for the consideration therein expressed did make ordain and constitute you the said Viscount Lisle by the name of Sir Robert Sydney Knight for Us to be the Governour and Captain of the said Town of Vlushing and of the Castle of Ramakins in the Low-Countries and of all the Garrisons and Souldiers that then were or hereafter should be there placed for Our service and guard of the said Town and Castle to have hold exercise and occupy the Office of the said Governor and Captain of the said Town and Castle by your self or your sufficient Deputie or Deputies to be allowed by Us during Our pleasure giving unto you full power and authority by your said Letters Patents to take the Oath and Oaths of all Captains Souldiers then serving or that hereafter should serve in the same Town and Castle as in like causes was requisite with divers other powers therein mentioned as by Our said Letters Patents at large appeareth And whereas the States generall of the United Provinces of the Low-Countries have divers and sundry times for many years together sollicited Us by their Resident Ambassador Sir Noel Caron Knight that We would be pleased to render into their hands the said Town of Vlushing in Zealand with the said Castle of Ramakins and the Town of Brill in Holland with the Forts Sconces thereunto belonging which We hold by way of Caution until such sums of mony as they owe unto Us be reimbursed upon such reasonable conditions as should be agreed upon between Us them for the reimbursing and repaiment of the said monies And whereas thereupon We recommended the consideration of this so weighty and important an affair to the judgement and discretion of the Lords of the Privy Councell and have received from them after long and mature deliberation and examination of Circumstances an advice that as the present condition of Our State now standeth and as the nature of those towns is lying onely Cautionary wherein we can challenge no interest of propriety it should be much better for our service upon fair and advantangious conditions to render them then longer to hold them at so heavy a charge Now forasmuch as in Our Princely Wisdom We have resolved to yeild up Our said Towns with the said Castle and Sconces belonging unto them upon such conditions as shall be most sit for Our advantage as well in point of honor as of profit And to that end by Our Commission under Our great Seal of England have assigned and appointed the Lords and others of Our Privy Councell Our Commissioners and thereby give full power and authority unto them or the more part of them for Us and in Our name to treat and conclude with the said Sir Noell Caron Knight Ambassador from the States of the United Provinces being likewise for that purpose sufficiently authorized from the
Contempts of sacred persons And having also observed that this so long continence of ours at so manifold injuries hath served to no other purpose but to make our enemies more audacious and insolent and that the compassion we have had of France hath drawn on the ruine of those whom God had put under the obedience of their Majesties For these considerations according to the power which we have received from his Imperiall Majestie we have commanded our Armies to enter into France with no other purpose then to oblige the King of France to come to a good secure Peace for removing those impediments which may hinder this so great a good And for as much as it principally concerneth France to give end to these disorders we are willing to believe that all the Estates of that Kingdome will contribute not only their remonstrances but also if need be their forces to dispose their King to Chastise those who have been the Authors of all these Warrs which these seven or eight years past have beene in Christendome and who after they have provoked and assayled all their neighbours have brought upon France all those evils which she doth now suffer and draw on her those other which do now threaten her And although we are well informed of the weaknesse and devisions into which these great disorders and evil counsels have cast her yet we declare that the intentions of their Mastjesties are not to serve themselves of this occasion to ruine her or to draw from thence any other profit then by that means to work a Peace in Christendom which may be stable and permanent For these reasons and withal to shew what Estimation their Majesties do make of the prayers of the Queene Mother of the most Christian King wee doe give to understand that we wil protect and treat as friends all those of the French Nation who either joyntly or severally shall second these our good designes and have given Order that Neutrality shal be held with those of the Nobility and with the Townes which shal desire it and which shal refuse to assist those who shal oppose the good of Christendome and their own safety against whom shall be used all manner of hostility without giving quarter to their persons or sparing either their houses or goods And our further wil is that all men take notice that it is the resolution of their Majesties not to lay down Arms til the Queene Mother of the most Christian King be satisfied and contented til the Princes unjustly driven out of their estates be restored til they see the assurances of peace more certain then to be disturbed by him who hath violated the treaties of Ratisbone others made before and sithence he hath had the managing of the affairs of France Neither do we pretend to draw any other advantage from the good successe which it shal please God to give unto our just prosecutions then to preserve augment the Catholick Religion to pacifie Europe to relieve the oppressed and to restore to every one that which of right belongeth unto him Given at Ments the fifth of July 1636.
