Philip Mary Enacted that King Philip should bee Protector of his supposed issue King Philip apprehended continuall feares and doubts of the English in regard of the maligners of his marriage for at his first entrance the dore of his great Hall of his Court for the most part kept shut or straightly guarded not any suffered to enter vnlesse his businesse was first made knowne Acts and Menuments pag. 1643. 6. King Philip fearefull of the English Those Lords that were against the mariage commaunded to send their weapons to the Tower The Lords some of them hauing formerly shewed themselues to haue been much against the marriage hauing leaue to depart London had straight commaundement to send all their Harnesse and Artillary to the Tower which was done The King was as well doubtfull of those that beare a faire shew conceiuing it vpon this ground For that a Noble man in consultation had giuen his counsell to cut off Lady Elizabeths head whereby he assured himselfe that those so bad minded towards their owne naturall Princesse could not be better to him a stranger hee was graciously courteous to the English and endeuoured all wayes and meanes to gaine their loues and affections For which he layd a good foundation became an earnest mediator King Philip a great friend to the Lady Elizabeth and solicited the Queene for the liberty of that innocent Princesse her sister the Lady Elizabeth who still remained a solitary prisoner in Woodstock about Wyats conspiracy though no proofes could be brought against her for any offence King Philip at length obtained his suite that the Lady Elizabeth was brought to Hampton Court and for 14. dayes there locked vp and laid at by Gardiner to submit her selfe hauing not seene her sister in two yeares before shee was sent for into the Queenes Chamber about tenne of the clocke in the night which she no sooner had entered but falling vpon her knees shee prayed to God to preserue her Soueraigne Maiestie protesting her loyalty and truth to her person

field whom she termed her laylor and leaue of liberty yet so that Sir Thomas Pope a priuie Councellour and Master Gage the Queenes Gentleman Vsher were still her Attendants all Queene Maries time But the death of Gardiner immediatly followed those stormes grew more calmer and the Lady Elizabeth euery day more affectionately respected King Philip by this his honourable and worthy act gayned him the loue of many the Nobility and Gentry of the Kingdome and did thereby so indeare and ingratiate himselfe into the affections of the Commons Nota. that they turned their hate and distaste vpon those that had beene the chiefe opponents and maligners of the marriage So that they are indeede like a streame of water though turned out of the current yet will runne Hee euery day gayned more and more vpon the loues of the English King Philip gayned the loue of the English in his affection gracing and countenancing them and his owne Country men he carried himselfe wonderous euenly which kept good correspondencie betweene the two Nations though his marriage with Queene Mary made him Master of all here in England yet in his honest and iust disposition those Articles which he had formerly agreed vnto alwayes maistered his affections obsequiously and exactly performing them which is not alwayes seene in Princes he had the two chiefe ornaments belonging to a King that is to say mercy and Iustice for the one he was both a moderator and mediator King Philip his good disposition and inclination to Iustice what hee could to restraine those seuere and cruell persecutions committed in Queene Maries time then for Iustice he had a Princely inclination to haue it duly administered Amongst many there is one peece of Iustice noted in him an Englishman at London in single fight being killed by a Spaniard he was executed though by the Strangers two hundred Duckets were offered for the Spaniard his repriue which could not stay the hand of Iustice For that there will be further occasion hereafter in my intended course for the pursuing of this my relation I will write here no more of him in his particular as being not to be doubted he was no lesse worthy and graciously disposed a Prince then hee is here briefly discribed or at least howsoeuer if his vertues had not exceeded his imperfections which is a great happinesse to a State where such a King is by some of our
