his misfortune and a Sponge to take of his tears Justinian cryed out Vanitas vanitatum and set Glimmer free allotting to him a Territory in France to live on Sect. 2. Concerning learned Princes OCtavian Augustus notwithstanding his warlike proceedings let not one day pass without reading and making a speech The Emperour Charles the Fourth did take so great delight in Learning as being at Prague invited to hear an Orator and having been four hours time entertained by the Orator when his Lords did beseech him to think on his dinner the time being past an hour he bid them go to their dinner saying He had fed himself with Learning Julius the Second was wont to say Learning with the common People to be as Silver Gold with the Nobles Jewels with Soveraigns Those Princes who have rendered themselves famous for their great Knowledge were carefully provided with choice of Teachers Darius had Lucan Alexander the Great Aristocles Artaxerces Mindare Palemon Captain of the Athenians Xenocrate Xeniacque King of the Corinthians had for him and his Children the Philosopher Chilon Epaminond Prince of the Thebans had Marut Ulisses Catinus Pyrrhe King of the Epirotes had Artemius King Ptolomy Philadelpho was Schollar to the famous Philosopher of Greece Cyrus King of Persia who did destroy Babilon had the Philosopher Prestic Trajan the Emperour Plutarque King Darius Herodet Augustus Pi●to Pompey Plaute Titus had Plinius Adrian Seconon Antoninus Apollonius Theodosius Claude Severnis Fabate These Philosophers had so much credit with all these Princes that the Children did call them Fathers and the Fathers did respect them as Masters So there came more Travellers to Rome to see Titus Livius and to speak to him than to see the Magnificency of that Epitome of the World Love to Knowledge moved all men to have them in singular great esteem for they were those who taught Numa Pompilus to honour the Churches to Marc Marcell to shed tears for the vanquished to Julius Caesar to forgive his Enemies to Octavian how to make himself beloved of the people to Alexander the Great to Reward all men they rouzed up the Spirit of Hector taught to Hercules of Thebes the Employing well his Forces to Ulisses of Greece discreetly to Adventure to Pyrrhe King of Epirotes to order and invent warlike Engins to Cattullus Regulus patiently to endure Torments Titus to be a Father of Orphans to procure more Knowledge to Marc Aurellius than to any other to Cressus King of the Lydians to get the love of wise men and to all Travellers the true scope of Travel and to make a true useful distinction between men when as the Nations were enslaved in the Adoration of divers Gods the Assyrians in Bel the Egyptians in Apis the Chaldeans in Isis the Babilonians in Dragon the Pharaons in a golden Statue the Palestins in Belzebub the Romans in Jupiter the Africans in that destroying Monster Mars the Corinthians Apollo the Arabians Astaroth the Aguies the Sun the Achaians the Moon the Sidonians Belphegor the Amonites Bahalim the Indians Bacchus the Lacedemians Oyges the Macedonians Mercury the Ephesians Diana the Gretians Juno the Armenians Liber the Trojans Veste the Latins Februa the Tarentins Ceres and the Rhodians Janus The List of all these abominations may justly move all Travellers to thank God that there is at present no danger to be enslaved in the damnable Observation of them but also to implore of the Almighty that they may not meet in their travel with such as Bordelots whose wilfulness moves them to perswade others to entertain no belief at all such as Bordelot taught during his being among the Goths to utter in publick That King Charles of blessed memory did deserve to lose his head because his hand wrote so much of God whose blessed memory justly moves and obligeth me to mention this for having been an ear witness of that most diabolical utterance The best Advice I zealously offer to my Princely Traveller is first to take a delight to charge his Memory with the knowledge of such things as may never be a burden to his Conscience that may afford him sufficient matter of quietness of Mind and plausible Discourse among all worthy men that may move those who shall see and hear him to be his friend as certainly no Rational in the universal World nay no wild Heathens would not be friend Bordelots Scholar The French are accustomed to ask at the very first sight of a stranger Whether he be Homè desprit A man of Wit The Germans If he be a Gentleman The Spaniards If he be a Cavallero The Venetians and Genovesi If he be Rich The Italians in general If he be Ingenious The Low-Dutch If he be an Honest Man Secondly The best Circuit a Traveller can take is to go through Holland towards Germany thereby to satisfie his curiosity by degrees which will encrase upon him for Germany will afford more satisfaction than the Low Countries France more than Germany Italy more than France and as for Spain what it may want of the French Complements it will make good in matter answerable to the Pirenean Hills so in the Spanish their Carriage their Speech and their Conceits like as the words concerning Cortez who did Conquer the golden part of the American world Cortez de à sa Rei muchas Triumphas Reynos y Palm●s à Dios muchas Almas in English Cortz gave to his King many Triumphs Kingdoms and Palmes to God many Souls If my Princely Traveller therefore begins with Holland he will see a People who by labour industry and indefatigable assiduty to attain to a settled being have come the nearest to the great Maker by raising something out of an almost nothing to wit a little very rich world out of moorish ground mighty fair populous flourishing well built and well fortified Cities and strong Holds every Inhabitant whereof tending to a settled point to wit Preservation and Melioration accustomed to the Maxime Concordia res parvae crescunt which hath at last brought them by the blessing from above the good and prudent conduct of their States the valiant carriage of their Commanders in chief the William Maurice and Frederic Henry Princes of Orange and the assistance of England and France to such a condition as that after a War which lasted 80 years the King of Spain hath declared them Free States on whom he hath no more pretence at all Their chief publick profession of Religion is called The Reformed Protestant their Church Government depending on their Synods their Pastors maintained by the respective Magistrates who do permit Liberty of Conscience to all men their Courts of Judicature do observe the Imperial Laws no Arrests of persons before Judgement so they be Free Denizons no man suffers death without the party accused confesseth the Crime those of Amsterdam having lost their priviledge in matter of entertaining a Hangman who they must in time of Execution borrow from the Town of Harlem because in some
