Kingdome as the setting of Christian Kings and Princes at variance one against the other and the whilst they have beene by the eares as it were and infesting each other with deadly hatred and bloody Warres the Turke their common Adversary hath taken advantage of their unnaturall dissentions and by force taken from them in little more than three Hundred yeeres past more Kingdomes Empires Principalities large Territories and Signiories from the Christians than all the rest of Christendome besides His force and power I will partly relate in the latter end of this Treatise and also how the Christians have oftentimes had the better of him when they have beene at Unity and peace amongst themselves but first let the Reader peruse the true Coppy of an insulting proud Letter lately sent from the Grand Signior from his Court at Constantinople to the King of Poland now Reigning the Contents of the Letter were as followeth The true Coppy of a Letter of Denyall of Peace sent from the Turkish Emperor to the King of Poland as by many Coppies here in England may appeare SUltan Morat or Amurah the fourth of that Name by the Grace of the Great God in Heaven the onely Monarch of the World a great and mighty God on Earth an invincible Caesar King of all Kings from the East unto the West High and Mighty Emperour of the Turkes doe by these our Imperiall Letters signifie to thee Uladislaus King of Poland how that our Highnesse by our trusty and wel-beloved Embassador Goban formerly made Articles Agreements and Conditions of Peace which now we utterly deny and renounce by reason wee have received certaine Intelligence and true Knowledge at our Imperiall Court that thou hast and doest dayly make private Contracts not onely with our revolting and rebellious Subjects but also with our mortall Enemy the perfidious Moscovite And furthermore thou hast contemptuously sleighted and scorned our Great and Vnconquerable forces making no more account of them than triviall things of small valew or little esteeme relieving and wholly depending upon thy owne strength and power which is but weake and feeble in respect of our Invincible Hostes and huge Armies and Forces which we dayly doe maintaine being both Horse and Foot We see that the Reflexion of the Grace and Favour which we have beene pleased of our magnificent and aboundant goodnesse to reflect upon thee and by the peace which we have suffred and vouchsafed thee by our Clemency undeserved to enjoy thou having formerly sworne and promised to keepe good correspondent League and Amity with us with our Friends and Confederates which Promises of thine out of thine owne Pride Insolence thou hast not performed but most falsely broken and violated which we will no longer suffer to goe without Correction and Acknowledgment For by the reason of thy refractory falling off from wee there are other petty Kings and Princes who by thy instigation doe combine together and offer to take up Armes and stand in defiance against me and my power trusting upon their handfulls of men and weak Fortifications Moreover thou art willing and with readinesse doest watch all opportunities to make more Contracts with other Kings that they also would assist thee and desie us But if thou doest persist in thy ambitious intentions and designes then know that for everlasting time neither thy selfe or any of thy Successors the Polish Kings shall never have Peace or Amity with us or the succeeding Othoman Empire but thou art to expect nothing but utter ruine slaughter and all the calamities of a just incensed conquering Adversary to fall upon thee wee will enter thy Kingdome and thy other Signiories with our forcible and innumerable Armies and there shall be no mercy to be expected from our hands I would have thee know that since that long and bloody Warre is ended that now there is Peace concluded for 21. yeers to come betweene us the Persian Emperor that not only thou but other of thy adherents shall not be suffered in their insolent wayes to persist but that I will wholly bend and set my innumerable Army upon thee and them Thou didst promise according to our former agreements to live quietly and at Peace which now thou neglectest and regardest not but hast let loose thy licentious will and thy cut-throate Cossacks and Heiducks like Hell-hounds doe fall in and make incursions into our confines and Territories in divers parts of our Empire plundering and spoyling my people in that Hostile manner upon thy unlawfull commands and unadvised want of fore-sight which we will revenge in the highest and severest measure that we possibly can imagine or execute Also upon thy intemperate will and pleasure thou wouldst have caused our trusty and well-beloved Embassador Abbas Bassa to take some distaste against our Imperiall person and State which was an injury insufferable and it was the occasion that his Loyalty to us made him fall upon thee in the defence of mine honour in my Name and behalfe which thou at that time didst contemptuously seeme to sleight also And dost thou now after all these uncivill Insolencies desire Peace which is because thou hearest of a mighty great Army which I have caused to be levied ●nd raised which I purpose shall fall heavie upon thee and thy weake Forces with all possible speed yea our invincible Ianizaries whose often tryed valour and strength shall make thee and the whole World to tremble besides our Tartarian Horse-men who shall meete thee in the wide Fields and tosse thee and thy weake forces like dust or ashes in the Aire or motes in the Sunne my invincible powers of Foote and Horse whose numbers thou shalt not
