To this entreatie Collin condiscended and thus spake It is not vnknowne the Spaniard a mighty Nation abounding with treasure being warres sinewes torne from the bowels of Mines fetcht from the sands of Indian Riuers by the miserable captiued Natiues haue purposed to be Lords of Europe France they haue attempted and failed in Nauarre they haue greatly distrest Lumbardy the garden of the world they are possessed of Naples and Sicilie Sardinia Corsica are forced to obey their lawes and that they reckoned England should be theirs with such small case euen in a manner with threatning their songs taught little Infants from Andolozia to Galizia are witnes The dice were cast her Maiesties subiects craftily put into the Inquisition vpon euery smal colour if they scaped which seldome sorted out so wel aliue they could of their goods haue no restitution Their King gaue pensions to our Queenes Rebellious fugitiue subiects not only to such that in regard of their Religion fled the land but vnto such as had attempted to resist her in actiue rebellion and yet not staying there out of his treasurie proposed rewards for sundry to attempt the murder of her sacred person of which perfidious gilt she ueuer was tainted let any Spaniard or Spanish affected English proue where she euer hired abetted or procured any such against their Kings Maiestie and I wil yeeld to be esteemed as false as falshood it selfe nay they cannot deny but that euen with the Rebels of her Realme of Ireland stird vp to barbarous and inhumane outrages by the Spanish policie shee hath no way dealt but by by faire and laudable warre But before I enter into her Maiesties lenitie in that Irish warre against sundry knowne Rebels and punishing some of her subiects that vpon zealc to her or perchance to get themselues a glorie aduentured their owne liues by treacherie to cut off the liues of some great Leaders of the Rebels I will a little digresse least I should be thought after her death to maintain the fire of hate which I euer in heart desired might honorably be quencht betweene these potent kingdomes of England and Spaine I wish all that reade this to bury old wrongs to pray that it would please God of his inestimable mercie to roote out all malice from Christian Nations and as our Royall Soueraigne now raigning hath conserued league and peace with all Princes so for the weale of Christendome it may more and more increase that the open enemies of Christ may the better be repelled from those wealthy Kingdomes in the East where they haue manie hundred yeeres most barbarously tyrannized for no man doubts but the blood shed within these thirtie yeeres as well of English as Scottish Spanish Dutch and Portugall in the quarrell of Religion might if GOD had so beene pleased beene able to haue driuen the heathen Monarch from his neerest holde in Hungaria to the fall of Danubia in the Euxine Sea especiallie with the assistaunce of the French that haue cruelly falne either vpon others swords But I trust God hath suffered this offence to adde more glory to our mighty King that hee should be the most famous of all his predecessours as indeede hee is the most mighty and hath beene raised to this Realme as a Sauiour to deliuer England make it more abundant in blessings when many lookt it should haue had all her glory swallowed vp of spoile The highnesse of his Emperiall place greatnesse of his blood mightinesse of his alliance but most his constancie in the true profession of Religion euen amid my sorrowes Thenot fill me with ioyes when I consider how a number that gaped for our destruction haue their mouths shut close yet emptie where they thought to eate the sweetes of our painefull sweate but God be praised as I saide before her Highnesse that ruled vs many yeeres in peace left vs in her death more secure by committing vs to our lawfull Prince matcht to a royal fruitfull Lady that hath borne him such hopefull issue that the dayes we lately feared I trust are as farre off as this instant is from the end of all earthly times who shal not only with their royall Father maintaine these his Kingdomes in happy peace but subiect more vnder him and spread the banners of Christ in the face of misbeleeuers In this hope I heere breake off and returne to our late Soueraignes care of keeping Faith euen toward her Rebell subiects which I wil manifest in some two or three examples of the Irish. When the Oneale in the time of that memorable Gentleman Sir Henry Sidney his Deputie-ship of Ireland was mightily strengthned in his Country and so potent that the Deputie had many dangerous skirmishes against him A seruant of her Maiesties one Smith thinking to doe a worthy peece of seruice by poysoning the Oneale prepared a little bottle parted in the middest one side containing good wine the other with tempered poyson of the same colour and that he carries to the Oneale vnder colour of gratification for that his armie lay farre from the Sea or Marchantable Townes and hee thought Wine was vnto him very dainty which the Oneale accepted kindly for that the said Smith was borne in the Oneales Countrey and such the Irish doe especially and before others trust to bring messages euen from their greatest enemies vnder whom they serue But the deceit being quickly spide Smith was by the Oneale sent bound to the Deputie to whose plot he would faine haue imputed the same practise but contrarilie the Deputie publikely punished the said Smith and her Maiestie refus'd him for her seruant saying shee would keepe none neere her that would deale treacherouslie no though it were against traytors The like example was showne on an other that would haue attempted the poysoning of Rory Og a bloody and dangerous Rebell To which may be added that her Highnesse among other trespasses obiected by her Atturney against
