respect him the more hee rebelled against him Is it possible then that her minde can euer lose the impression of her fathers remembrance And can Shee remember Him and yet forget his death Or can reminiscence retaine his death and not thinke of the instrument of it Or can the instrument of that murther be in her memorie and the setters on work of that wicked Instrument the Instigatours of that bloudie Butcher to that beastly cursed cruell fact be out of her minde And can Shee remember them and not abhorre them And can She abhorre them and not relinquish their religion which hold that lawfull which Gods Law hath forbidden For God prohibiteth the murther of any priuate person but these Doctors maintaine it to be lawfull to kill Kings which are publique persons Neither doe they permit it as a worke not impious but perswade men to it as a deed meritorious For Rauilack had no sooner playd his part in that bloudie Scene but hee was so confident in the blessednesse of the act as hee thought immediately to haue flowne to Heauen and beene crowned a Saint by God as well as canonized a Saint by the Pope Such is the leauen of the Popish Doctrine that sowres all the subiects of the Prince which doth professe it For what treacherous attempt against any King either Protestant or Papist hath beene made by a Protestant in our memories Oh no we are taught to feare God to honour the King wee must follow Dauids example to Saul not lift vp our hands against the Lords Anointed wee know Hee is Gods Vice-Gerent placed there by God and therfore to be displaced by none but Him But on the contrarie what plots haue beene laid What treasons haue beene committed either for the destruction of a King or subuersion of a Kingdome in which the Papists haue not only been Parties but principall Agents Who were they which plotted so many treasons against the Person of Queene Elizabeth but Papists But what treasons were plotted against Queene Marie by any Protestant notwithstanding shee was a cruell persecutor of that Profession What was Gowrie that conspired the ouerthrow of the Sacred Maiestie of King Iames but a Papist What were the plotters of that horrid Gun-powder Treason who sought with one puffe to blow away both the Prince and Peeres of our Kingdome but all professors of the Romish Religion What was hee which murthered King Henrie the third of France but a Papist Iacobin In a word what treasons haue beene committed which are contained in the Register-booke of mans memorie which haue not beene plotted and performed by them And no maruell the Priests and people practise it since they preach it and it is an orthodoxall opinion and position amongst them that the Pope hath power both to dispose of Kingdomes and depose Kings and that King-killing is not onely a lawfull but a holy and honourable calling Who then can suspect that a Princesse of her peerelesse part of her pious disposition of her matchlesse vnderstanding and discretion doth affect truly that religion which doth infect the hearts of Princes subiects which doth teach men to be monsters in gouernment and not to subiect themselues to higher powers but to rebell against the rule and authoritie of the Regall Scepter How can those Princes haue any peace with God that doe so little respect and much hazard their liues as to harbour and foster such murtherous rebellious minded men in their Kingdomes How can Princes haue any peace with men when they suffer men which are so wicked to preach such doctrine and practise such villanie How can they haue any peace within thē when they may iustly feare that each one which smiles in their face may smite their heart when they nourish vp such vipers in their bosome as are readie each moment to eat out their bowels How can then this Royall Princesse affect that religion or the professors of it which was the death of her Father and his Predecessor which may be a disturbance to the peace of her Prince and the safetie of his person if it be tolerated which may impaire the securitie of her posteritie who are neuer like to possesse their Princedomes in peace vnlesse such vermine bee hunted out of their Territories for peace and such people cannot inhabit in one Kingdome or dwell together no more than wine and poyson in a crystall glasse but the glasse will bee broke and the wine spilt and spoiled If then a Prince will possesse his soule and soueraigntie in peace he must banish these breakers and disturbers of it Neither is it a strange or vnheard of matter for France and England to shake hands of amitie and vnitie in those blessed Contracts for since almost the beginning of either Monarchie there haue beene continually these friendly and fortunate interchanges of mariage For it was not concealed from our Ancestors how beneficiall peace was betweene France and England therefore Steuen Earle of Bloys was linked in the bond of mariage w th Adela daughter to William the Conquerour And on the other side William Waren Earle of Surrey sonne of Gunred daughter to William the Conqueror maried the daughter of Hugh Vermandoys brother to the King of France For in like manner William Duke of Normandie did marrie Marie daughter to Foulke Earle of Anjou Maud the Empresse was linked in mariage with Iefferie Plantaginet Earle of Anjou And for the happinesse of his Kingdome the tranquillitie of his Countrey and felicitie of his Countrey-men Steuen King of England maried Constance daughter to the King of France Henrie the second maried Elenor sole heire to William Duke of Aquitaine Henrie sonne to King Henrie the second maried Margaret daughter to Lewis the French King Richard Cordelion maried Berenger daughter to Sanches King of Nauarre Iohn King of England maried Isabel daughter and heire of Amorie Earle of Angoulesme Arthur nephew to King Iohn maried the daughter of Philip King of France Edward the second maried the daughter of Philip King of France Isabel daughter to Edward the third maried Ingelram de Guisnes Earle of Soysson and Bedford Richard the second maried Isabel daughter to Charles the French King Henrie the fourth maried Iane the daughter of Philip the third King of Nauarre Henrie the fifth maried Catherine daughter to Charles the French King Henrie the sixth maried Margaret the daughter of Reiner Valois Duke of Anjou Marie daughter to Henry the seuenth maried Lewis the twelfth French King Charles Prince of Great Britaine betrothed to Maria Henrette daughter to Henrie the fourth and sister to Lewis the thirteenth Kings of France Thus hath there been a long and sweet continuance of blessed Contracts between France and England fortunate in each mariage producing peace and plentie to each Dominion so haue these matches beene prosperous to former so is this like to bee to future ages that all happinesse to either Kingdom shall be the issue of this most longed for and liked Vnion For who can bee
his lusts with the bridle of wisedome others if they be distasted in the strength of their youth haue such heat of bloud and doe boyle in anger that they seeme to haue enough fury to furnish all the furies in hell and yet notwithstanding themselues still haue heaped measure throwing themselues vpon each apparent danger without consideratiō or feare doing any iniury without conscience and religion but wisely foresees a danger and seekes to preuent it and is so valiant that Hee dares not fight but vpon iust occasion This is the royall Brother of so vertuous a Sister this is that mighty Monarch with whom England shakes not only the hands of friendship but fraternity And who is it but the most Illustrious Princesse the Lady Henrette Maria which puts the hands together It is She whose twinne was happinesse and whose birth brought in felicity to all this part nay to all the world especially to France and England to France for God no doubt foresaw that he had sufficiently stored it with Sonnes issued from that fountaine of goodnesse Henrie the fourth whereby that blessed Countrey might seeme sufficiently strengthned and fortified in it selfe God therefore in due time sent it a daughter so excelling and transcending in vertue beauty to make it strong without it selfe and to make walls of friendship about it to England for it was not obscured from the All and al wayes All-seeing eye of God before the beginning of the world much more Her being what need England should haue to helpe her Allies and Neighbours though not her selfe and therefore ordained two such Potentates as K. Lewis of France Prince Charles of England and likewise sent this worthy Princesse to ioyne these two together and to make them Brothers who are so like one another in vertuous conditions who are both magnanimous both wife both valiant and no doubt both of them shall be fortunate they will draw their swords in Iustice handle them with such courage as each blow shall seeme to be the postilion of death vnto their enemie so that they shall satisfie their thirstie blades with the bloud of Tyrants and die their swords with the death of the enemies to truth and equitie And who is the foundation vpon whom these hopes are erected but vpon this gracious Princesse who hath not onely vertue in Herselfe highnesse of birth and good education in and from her Ancestours greatnesse of estate but also hath beautie to moue loue wit to apprehend to loue and excellent bodie to content it and a gratefull minde to reward it For had She all these rare endowments and aptitudes of mariage and yet had no inclination to wedlocke her rare gifts would be like precious iewels which lose their luster for want of wearing like fragrant flowers in a most delightfull garden which are neuer gathered but sinde their tombe where they had their birth like a root buried vp in the ground which neuer brancheth if She were resolued not to make an exchange change of virginall for coniugall chastitie She should doe the world too much iniurie in cloystering vp Christendomes ioyes whose hopes are chiefly in Her with Herselfe Moreouer her vertues would returne to the King of Heauen of whom they all hold in capite for want of heires and could onely finde life after her death in the mouth of Fame her nobilitie of bloud would die in Herselfe for want of posteritie to whom it might still be deriued Shee would lose the worth of her education in not teaching that to others which She hath beene taught Herselfe all that Shee could well dispose of would be her Dowrie to the which the poore would be rightfull heires and as for her beautie it would perish without blessing any but a multitude of wounded admiring spectators And howsoeuer indeed it may bee Death could not take it away with her soule yet the graue would consume it with her bodie She therefore as Shee was the childe of a mother so desireth to be the mother of a childe Moreouer let no man bee guiltie of such a foolish suspition once to doubt or imagine that our Princes wisdome should be ouercome by a womans weaknesse that the eye of his reason and religion should bee put out with the eye of affection Or farre be it to commit such blasphemie against his Highnesse either so much to diminish his constancie in the truth or derogate from the soundnesse of his knowledge and iudgement that euer Hee should bee brought to forsake that in the defense of which He would deeme the losse of his life and bloud precious Will Hee relinquish that which is built vpon the ground of Gods word which is disagreeing in nothing agreeing in euerie thing with the holy Scriptures to be the Follower of mens traditions and an Obseruer and Seruer of the foolish inuentions of humane fancie to reuerence that termed Holines which is but true Insanctitie to relye vpon any thing but the merits of Christ to trust to his owne workes or deeme them meritorious and so to make Himselfe his owne Sauiour and by consequence the comming of Christ of no necessitie to forsake that faith which was founded by Christ and his Apostles vpheld and followed by the Fathers whose antiquitie is such that it was preached by our Heuenly Father to our earthly parent in Paradise by the which all former and future ages must bee saued to follow that which is but an vpstart Irreligion which was set vp by Couetousnesse and Ambition which is to bring gold to the Popes coffers not God to the peoples consciences which is only to hide the light of the Gospell vnder the bushell of an vnknowne tongue to starue the soules of poore people which makes Ignorance the mother of Deuotion which is Author of destruction which maketh people thinke it nothing to sinne because they thinke themselues sure of a pardon which maketh adultery Sodomie fornication more honourable than marriage allowable which maketh Moses inferiour to Aaron which bringeth the neckes of Princes and Kings vnder the foot and follies of Antichrist which is the Nurse of rebellion in Subiects against their Soueraigne and maketh him a God which is but a deuill incarnate who Lucifer-like prefumeth to sit in the seat of God Or what heart can be such a detractor from Her vertue to thinke that this Phoenix of her age this noble Princesse whose brest is the Cottage of humility and the quiet harbour of lowly thoughts will offer to seeke to guide Him by whom She is to be directed to be the sterne when She is but the vessell of which Hee is the Pilot to be the Sun when she is but the Moone which must borrow light frō his knowledge can She which esteemes him to be all worth thinke that the greatest ornament in him is vnworthy No surely She knowes that She may be the crowne of the head but She will not presume to be the head of the body She desires not to metamorphise water
made more happie in themselues more blessed in their people than this Prince and Princesse who are so like in themselues and their Countries their people their loues their vertues as this rare Ladie and her Prince who by his supreme vertues might seeme only to challenge Her and Shee for her exquisite qualities to enioy Him So that from this Match may be deriued all happinesse and all felicitie as also all vertues ioyne in them for hath his greatest indignation and choler beene euer made a crime against them whom Hee hath hated No no but his royall Soule which had nothing in it but courage seemed to faile in his reuenge and though that with the eyes of his minde He may apprehend offences yet his mercie is as readie to forget them as his wisdome to apprehend them And for his valour I doubt not but hereafter as well as in times past the eyes of all men shall see it and eares conceiue it and succeeding ages shall publish his present valour and it is not to bee feared that this assertion shall need confirmation since there is hope it is not only without contestatiō but comparison who hath also clemency ioyned with his courage hath as much pleasure in pardoning as glory in vanquishing so that it is to be expected that as the acts of the one shall be signed with bloud so the other shall be sealed with teares And for his pious life the world knowes that he hath no superiors few equals but multitudes of inferiours who as if he made it his onely happinesse to serue God doth only please himselfe in pleasing him esteeming his seruices his greatest freedome and deeming it a thing most vnworthy to bee a Soueraigne of men and not a seruant of God And a thing most requisite in a Prince to be as eminent in grace as in place and in vertue as in dignity than the which there cannot be a greater honour nor any thing which doth more proue or improue the stocke He came of who is like pure pearly water flowing from a Crystall fountaine or like an Apple of gold hanging vpon a goodly Cedar which brancheth it selfe into all the parts of Christendome For how royally descended and neerely allied is He for how frequent haue the interchanges of Mariages with England and other the chiefest and noblest Families of Christendome being the onely sonne of Iames the sixt of that name King of Great-Britaine France and Ireland lineally descended from multitudes of most mighty Monarchs the vndoubted Heire of the said Dominions being issued from Marie Queene of Scotland and Dowager of Francis of Valoys the second French King who departed this life 1586 marrying Henrie Steward Lord Darnely her second Husband eldest Son to Mathew created Duke of Albany in an 1565 and slaine in the yeare 1566 the which Q.

Elizabeth O worthie Prince neuer enough to be commended by the weaknesse of a humane pen for I thinke no Tullian no surely nor Tertullian eloquence could sufficiently compile thy commendations and I doubt not but thy vertues haue engrauen more noble thoughts on Thee in the hearts of all than can be expressed by the hands of any But to returne to the famous Off-spring of this happie King Frederick the second and not to forget Augusta third daughter to King Frederick the second and Sister to Queene Anne and Aunt to our worthie Prince Charles borne in the yeere of Christ 1580.
