A12691	A packe of Spanish lyes sent abroad in the vvorld: first printed in Spaine in the Spanish tongue, and translated out of the originall. Now ripped vp, vnfolded, and by iust examination condemned, as conteyning false, corrupt, and detestable wares, worthy to be damned and burned.		1588 (1588)	STC 23011; ESTC S117693	9,398	29

for ostentation but Gods fauour is assured to Englande in the Iustice of the quarell against any Inuadour i If there were a mutinie of Catholikes they should haue bene hanged or punished but it was not knowen that one Catholique did stir this Summer with hand or toÌ„gue to mooue offence neither was any one imprisoned or otherwise punished k The last line is a lye with like errour as the former for there is no Hauen in Scotland called Trapena Exaten This Mendoza was very curious to forge a strange name as it appeareth hee had read of some such in Peru or in new Spaine A condemnation of the Spanish lies From England 6 THis Scottishman I thinke hath no name a manifest lye it was that Scottishmen had taken Armes against the English Such a lie did Mendoza publish some yeres past that the king of Scots had besieged and wonne Barwicke I trust he remembreth now how false a lye it was but yet he hath no grace as it seemeth to forbeare froÌ„ forging of lyes for his chollerike appetite But a manifest trueth it is that the King of Scots at the time meant made a generall Proclamation that no Scottishman should victuall any Spaniard for that the King did knowe they came to haue conquered both England and Scotland And on the other side the King by Proclamation commaunded that all succours should be giuen to the Armie of England as being the armie of his Sister and confederate and the Prince whom he knew to be inuaded most iniustly Many Scottishmen might at Burdeaux haue reported this for a truth A condemnation of Spanish lies From England 7 AL these vntrue newes are sayde to haue come from the spanish Fleete to the Kings Maiestie By this tyme is it sure that the Duke of Medina can tell the King his Master some other contrary matters for else he had no cause to flie about Scotland and Ireland l He also wil not say that eyther three Galiasses foure GalleoÌ„s of England were sunk or that euer hee coulde see one ship or one boat of England sunk He can tell the King with great griefe that hee neuer had fortunate day from his coÌ„ming from the Groine till he returned with the losse of as many shippes men victuals treasure and ordinaÌ„ce as might haue made a good armie by sea and great pitie it is for Christendome that both that which is lost and that which remaineth had not beene vsed by the King Catholik against the Infidels and not with ambitioÌ„ on to imploy such kinde of forces to inuade Christian countreys therewith who if he would liue in peace with them would be readye to ioine their forces with his to dilate the fines of Christendome forbeare spending of Christian blood amongst Christians m This Noble man was killed with a smal shot in the Galleasse where in very trueth hee remayned in defence of the Galleasse and sought not to flie away as a great nomber did n If it be meant the xii of August the vntruth is apparant for there was neuer fight after that afore Calleis which was the xxix of Iulie Stilo antiquo and the 8. of their August o It is very true that the Spaniards ships to make themselues light to flie did cast away their boates they threw their Moiles and horses into the seas A condemnation of the Spanish lies From England 8 THis that is sayd of the Dukes grapling with Drakes ship and taking of him captiue and many other Noble men of England is like all the rest of the lyes The Duke after hee went from Calleis towards Scotland neuer came neere to offer fight with any English shippe neuer turned backe to the English that followed him but fledde away as winde and sayle could serue him If he had this fortune thus falsely reported it is sure that hee would haue brought both Drake and some of the Noble men home with him into Spaine to haue beene presented to the king and not to haue gone home to his owne house without sight of the King But in truth there was not one Noble man or Gentleman of any Marke that went to the sea that was either slaine or taken all are liuing and are as willing by Gods fauour to aduenture their liues as euer they were against any of the Queens enemies wheÌ„ she shal coÌ„mand them And where these newes did much content the King it is likely that if he thought them true he was glad thereof for so had his Maiestie cause but hee is thought too wise to haue thought that after hee vnderstoode that the Duke and all his armie had fled from the coast of Flanders England that euer they were like to haue any victorie of the English No contrariwise the King and all his wise Counsellours had cause to lament the dangers whereunto of necessitie his Armada should fall by passing the dangerous coastes Ilandes monstruous rockes of Scotland Ireland of more danger for his Nauie to passe then to haue passed froÌ„ Lisborne to the Moloccas and home againe It is to be thought that if the Empresse gaue the secretarie Ydiaques any rewarde for the newes as it is likely shee did she may iustly require it againe froÌ„ him and giue him charge not to bring her Maiestie nor the King his master any such notorious lyes hereafter for if he vse it often he is vnworthie to be Secretarie to so great a King Jmprinted at London by the DEPVTIES of Christopher Barker Printer to the QVEENES

English shippes were sunke and 40. were taken when in trueth there was not any one of the English shippes sunke or taken A strange disposition to forge such great lyes whereof there was no ground nor colour If any one or two of the English had bene sunke a lyar might haue put the nomber of 20. for 2. and excused the lye by error of figuring but of none in nomber no nomber can bee made but by falshood The Gouernour of Roan being a man of great honour and vertue ought to reuenge this shamefull lye made vpon him for Lucian neuer did in all his lyes vse more impudencie then these Spanish lyars doe report of him d If Drakes shippe were taken if there was such a piece of ordinance of such a length in what Port is that shippe in whose possession is that piece Drake is returned with honour his shippe called the Reuenge is in harborow ready for a reuenge by a newe seruice no shippe lost no ordinance missing e The foolish lyar maketh mention of Abspurg in Scotland in all Scotland is no such place in Germanie is a countrey called Habspurg but any wager may be layd that none of the Spanish came euer thither Euery line or euery sentence conteineth a lye The Duke him selfe is returned let him confirme this vntrueth that he ouerthrewe the English armie it can not be imagined that hee being a person of so great honour will allow so notorious a lye to be taken for a trueth for if he had such a victorie why did hee not land to conquere England why did he neuer enter into any part of England why did hee neuer cary any Ensigne of England into Spaine to shew as very many of the Spanish were brought into Englande A condemnation of the Spanish lies From England 3 ALl this is likewise as full of lyes as lines Iohn Gamarra may be what he is but if there be such a man and that hee wrote as is mentioned except hee bee a professed member of the Deuill to forge lyes hee knoweth that he wrote falsly f Hee noteth also a Hauen in Scotlande called Luxaten none such was euer knowen there In Vtopia there may bee such a one no Spaniard can saye that they tooke any HaueÌ„ in Scotland it is altogether vaine otherwise to reproue this but al that is reported are lyes so let Gamarra repent or follow the Deuill his master the father of malicious lyes A condemnation of the Spanish lies From England 4 THis Pedro Alua coulde bee content to send lies but he is more warie in the auowing of them hee reporteth lyes as hee saith that came from other places But of all other places none coulde make a truer report then Calleis where the Gouernour and all the inhabitants saw the Spanish armie mightily beaten by the English and it was affirmed by men there of great iudgement that neuer was seene by any man liuing such a battery so great for nomber so furious and of so long continuance as the English made against the Spanish Calleis sawe the Spanish armie first driuen from their ancres with fire they sawe the greatest Galliasse of the Spanish whereof was Commander that worthy noble man Moncada spoyled himselfe slaine in the Galliasse by the English Calleis did see the next day that the English Nauie fought and did beate the Spanish Armada from viii of the clocke in the Morning vntill 4. in the afternone without any ceasing Calleis sawe the Spanish hoyse vp al their sayles flie as fast as winde could driue the English to follow and pursue them and yet Calleis saw a sufficient Nauie of England left afore Dunkirke able to master all the Shipping that the Duke of Parma had prouided g The last part of this report is a like lye to the other there is no such Port in Scotland called Trifla neither did any of the Spaniards take succour in any Hauen nor yet could haue done by reason of the contrary windes A condemnation of the Spanish lies From England 5 HEre followeth the Mountaine of lies It is reason that if there were lyars in London they should send them to Mendoza for so Mendacia are of more price with him then true reportes and so was he accustomed when he was Ambassadour in Englande to buye more lyes because hee liked them better then truethes If one should make a Section or anatomie of this Mountaine and body of lyes there is no piece nor ioynt to be found sound h The Admirall Shippe which was called the ARKE ROYALL was safely brought home by the Lord Admiral of England L.
