emptied of Priests and Recusants and filled with zealous Ministers for preaching against the Match for no man can sooner now mutter a word in the Pulpit though indirectly against it but he is presently catched and set in straight prison We have also published Orders both for the Universities and the Pulpits that no man hereafter shall meddle but to preach Christ crucified Nay it shall not be la●●ul hereafter for them to rail against the Pope or the Doctrine of the Church of Rome further then for edification of ours and for proof hereof you shall herewith receive the orders set down and published But if we could hear as good news from you we should think our selves happy men but alas Now that we have put the ball at your feet although we have received a comfortable Dispatch from his Majesties Embassadour there yet from all other parts in the world the effects appear directly contrary For Mr. Gage brings us news from Rome that the dispensation there is at a stand except a number of new Conditions be granted which we never dreamed of and some of them can tend to no other end but to bring our Master in jealousie with the greatest part of his Subjects nay which is strangest of all we find some points yeelded unto by us which would have given the Pope good satisfaction to be concealed from him by the King your Masters ministers there We were never more troubled to put a good face upon an ill Game then we were upon Gage's arrival here which in your phrase is to put a good sauce to an unsavoury dish For the whole world being in expectation of bringing the Dispensation with him we are now forced to make him give it out here to all his friends that 't is past in Rome and sent from thence to Spain And from Brussels we find that notwithstanding both of the King your Masters promises and undertaking of the Infanta there who hath long ago acknowledged to have had power from the Emperour for granting of this long-talked of Cessation yet now after innumerable delayes on her part Heidelbergh is besieged by Count Tilley and that at such a time as his Majestie cannot imagine what ground or shadow of excuse can be found for his Commission For the Treaty hath been twice reformed at her desire and all the Auxiliaries such as Brunswick and Mansfelt have taken another course His Majesties son in law staying privately in Sedan ready to obey all his Majesties directions and the places in the Palatinate which are not already in his enemies hands being onely possessed by his Majesties Souldiers So as now if the War shall continue it must be directly between the Emperour and our Master his Majestie having sent a Commandment to his Embassadour at Brussels that if Tilley will needs go on with that siege that he return hither with all speed For his Majestie in honour cannot endure that whilest he is treating for a cessation of Arms at Bruxels the Wars should go on in the Palatinate especially when they have no body to invade but his Majesties own Subjects and servants And indeed his Maiestie thinks he is very ill dealt withal for all that great sincerity an●● and our wherewith he hath constantly carried himself from the very beginning of this businesse that no lesse can satisfie the Emperours revenge then the utter extermination of his children both of honour and inheritance and not without a direct breach of his former promise avowedly set down in his last Letter to his Majestie And now let me I pray you in the name of your faithful friend and Servant beseech you to set apart all partialitie in this case and that you would be pleased indifferently to consider of the streights we are driven into if the Emperour shall in this fashion conquer the Palatinate the antient inheritance of his Majesties children what can be expected but a bloudie and unreconcileable war between the Emperour and my Master wherein the King of Spain can be an Auxiliarie to the Emperour against any other partie but his Majestie And therefore as my Master lately offered to the Infanta for satisfaction of her desire that in case the Auxiliaries would not be contented with reason but still perturbe the treatie he offered in that case to assist the Emperour and her against them so can he in justice expect no lesse of the King your Master that if the Emperour will contrarie to all promises both by his Letters and Embassadours proceed in his conquest and refuse the cessation that the King your Master will in that case and in so just a quarrel assist him against the Emperour in imitation of the King my Masters just and reall proceedings in the businesse from the beginning who never looked as you can well be witnesse to the rising or faling hopes of his son in Law his fortunes but constantly keep on that course that was most agreable to honour and justice to the peace of Christendom and for the fastning of a firm indissoluble knot of amity and alliance betwixt the king your Master and him which was begun in the time of the treatie with France and then broken at your desire that we might imbrace this alliance with you you are the person that many times before your departure hence besought his Majestie once to suffer himself to be deceived by Spain We therefore do now expect to find that great respect to honour in the King your Master that he will not take any advantage by the changing of fortune and successe of time so to alter his actions as may put his Honour in the terms of interpretation You see how all the rest of Christendom envie and maligne this match and wished conjunction How much greater need then hath it of a hastie and happie dispatch And what comfort can the Prince have in her when her friends shall have utterly ruined his Sister and all her babes you remember how your self praysed his Majesties wisdom in the election of so fit a Minister as Sir Richard Weston in this businesse but you saw what desperate Letters he writes from time to time of their cold and unjust treating with him in this businesse you could not but wonder at any spark of Patience could be left us here and to conclude this point in a word we ever received comfortable words from Spain but find such contrary effects from Bruxelles together with our intelligences from all other parts of the world as all our hopes are not only cold but quite extinguished here Thus far for the By and yet such a By as may put by the main if it be not well and speedily prevented As to the Main which is the match his Majestie and we all here thought we had done our part and put the ball at your foot when wee agreed upon the twentie and five Atticles more whereupon as your self often answered and assured us the best Divines in Spain concluded that the Pope not only
Scholar that hath liberty of discourse without committing of any absurdity If not I pray your Honour to believe I ever loved her Majesty and the State and now love your self and there is never any vehement love without some absurdity as the Spaniard well saith De suario con la calentura So desiring your Honours pardon I ever continue c. FR. BACON Considerations touching the Queens service in Ireland by Sir Francis Bacon THe Reduction of the Country as well to Civility and Justice as to Obedience and Peace which things as th' affairs now stand I hold to be unspeakable consisteth in four points 1. The extinguishing of the Reliques of War 2. The Recovery of the hearts of the People 3. The removing of the root and occasions of new troubles 4 Plantation and buildings For the first concerning the places times and particularities of further prosecution in fact I leave it to the opinion of men of war onely the difficulty is to distinguish and discern the propositions which shall be according to the ends of the State here that is final and summary towards the extirpation of the trouble s from those which though they pretend the publick ends yet may referre indeed to the more private and compendious ends of the Councel there or other particular Governors or Captains But still as I touched in my letter I do think much letting blood in declinatione morbi is against method of cure and that it will but exasperate necessity and despair and per case discover the hollowness of that which is done already which none blazeth to the best shew For Taglaes ●nd proscription of two or three of the principall Rebels they are no doubt jure Gentium lawfull in Italy usually practised upon the Banditi best in season when a side goeth down and may do good in two kinds the one if it take effect the other in the distrust which followeth amongst the Rebels themselves But of all other points to my understanding the most effectuall is the well expressing or impressing of the design of this State upon that miserable and desolate kingdom containing the same between these two lists or boundaries the one that the Queen seeketh not an extirpation of the people but a reduction and now that she hath chastised them by Royall power and Arms according to the necessity of the occasion her Majesty taketh no pleasure in effusion of blood or displanting of ancient generations the other that her Majesties Princely care is principally and intentionally bent upon that action of Ireland and that she seeketh not so much the ease of charge as the Royall performance of her Office of Protection and reclaim of those her Subjects And in a word that the case is allowed as far as may stand with the honor of the time past which it is easie to reconcile as in my last note I shewed And again I do repeat that if her Majesties design be ex professo to reduce wild and barbarous people to civility and justice as well as to reduce Rebels to obedidience it maketh weakness true Christianity and conditions turn graces and so hath a sineness in turning utility upon point of honor of these times And besides if her Majesty shall suddenly abate the lists of her Forces and shall do nothing to countervail it in the point of reputation of a publick proceeding I doubt things may too soon fall back into the state they were in Next to this adding reputation to the cause by imprinting an opinion of her Majesties care and intention upon this action is the taking away the reputation from the contrary side by cutting off the opinion and expectation of foreign succours to which purpose this enterprise of Algiers if it hold according to the advertisement and if be not wrapped up in the period of this Summer seemeth to be an opportunity Coelitus demissa And to the same purpose nothing can be more fit then a Treaty or a shadow of Treaty of a Peace with Spain which methinks should be in our power to fasten at least rumore tenus to the deluding of as wise a people as the Irish Lastly for this point that the Antients called potestas facta redeundi ad sanitatem and which is but a mockery when the Enemy is strong or proud but effectual in his declination that is a liberal Proclamation of grace and pardon to such as shall submit and come in within a time prefixed and of some further reward to such as shall bring others in that our sword may be sharpned against anothers as a matter of good experience and now I think will come in time And per case though I wish the exclusions of such a Pardon exceeding few yet it will not be safe to continue some of them in their strength but to translate them and their generation into England and give them recompence and satisfaction here for their possessions there as the King of Spain did by divers families of Portugal The effecting of all the which fall within the points aforesaid and likewise those which fall within the divisions following Nothing can be in priority either of time or matter precedent to the sending of some Commission of the continuance ad res inspiciendas componendas For it must be a very significant demonstration of her Majesties care of that Kingdom a credence to any that shall come in and submit a bridle to any that have their fortunes there and shall apply their propositions to private ends and an evidence of her Majesties politique courses without neglect or respiration and it hath been the wisdome of the best examples of Government Towards the recovery of hearts of the people there be but three things in natura rerum 1. Religion 2. Justice and Protection 3. Obligation and reward For Religion to speak first of Piety and then of Policie All Divines do agree that if Consciences be to be inforced at all whereby they differ yet two things must precede their inforcement th' one means of information th' other time of operation Neither of which they have yet had Besides till they be more like reasonable men then they yet are their society were rather scandalous to true Religion then otherwise as pearl cast before swine For till they be cleansed from their blood incontinencie and theft and which are now not the lapses of particular persons but the very laws of the Nation they are incompatible with Religion formed with Policie There is no doubt but to wrestle with them now is directly opposite to their reclaim and cannot but continue their alienation of mind from this government Besides one of the principal pretences whereby the heads of the Rebellion have prevailed both with the people and the Foreigner hath been the defence of the Catholique religion and it is that likewise hath made the Foreigner reciprocally more plausible with the Rebel Therefore a Toleration of Religion for a time not definite except it be in some principal Towns and
enjoy now only the name and now since hath so much quickned and enlightned me by his gracious countenance and assured me by his daily favours to make me to depend upon him and that I should deliberately and determinately take any flowers from his Crown to place them on the heads of others or to betray his Majesties interest into the hands of others I hope his Majesty will vouchsafe me so much favour not to value me at so low a rate as to think these things came in de industria For if I had felt any such Eccho arise in my breast I protest I would have laid hands on my self and judged my self unworthy of any society My Lords the corruption of my hands are far inferior to the corruption of the heart and the hand that runs wilfully into error works meerly from the corruption of the heart and that makes it the more inexcusable as the bleeding of a wound inwardly ever becomes mortal and were I conscious to my self I would not have any color of excuse I thank his Majesties Councel that howsoever these hands were at first mistrusted yet since they are not at all misdoubted nor the least corruption laid to my charge But this doth most grieve me that my faithfulness to his Majesty should be suspected And I humbly desire upon my knees that his Clemencie in this case may stop the issue of his Justice that though a long time his face hath been hid yet now at length his mercy will break through the clouds to support me that am now fallen I lay my self at his Majesties feet to do with me as it pleaseth him and humbly desire his Majesty would take me to his own sentence I never thought of my self otherwise then clay in his Majesties hands to mould me to honour or dishonour When I look and behold this solemnity and spectacle about me I make no other account of it then Pompa mortis and such a Prince as he is knows that Life and Reputation are equall if the last be not the greatest I know your Lordships have such power and his Majesty takes such pleasure in you you are so dear in his eyes that he can deny you nothing and therefore I would desire you that you would be suiters in my behalf that his favour might once again shine upon me I know his grace and clemency sleepeth if I be not unworthy to partake and the rather because the River that did run another way is now turned into the Sea again and the Charter given up surrendred and cancelled I know much life might be added to the sinewes of my happinesse by your Lordships intercessions for me in vouchsafing whereof I shall pledge a perpetuall assurance of better service for the time to come and shall be bound and engaged to every one of your Lordships so that my desire is that his Majesty might first be acquainted with this submission before you proceed into the merits of the cause remaining still a prisoner to his Justice knowing his Majesty may if he please turn me to vanity Ferdinand the second Emperour to the Catholique King Most gracious King my most loving Nephew FAther Jacinthus comes over to your Court to negotiate with your Majesty in the Popes name about a business much concerning the conservation of our holy Faith and consequently the support of our Family as your Majesty shall understand of the said Father to whom I refer my self as also to Don Balthazar de Zuniga to whom I have written more distinctly fearing to be over-tedious to your Majesty and being well assured how well your Majesty stands inclined to either of these points Ferdinand the Emperour to Don Balthazar de Zuniga October 15. 1621. To the Honorable and sincerely beloved Don Balthazar de Zuniga Cousin and Councellour of State to the most excellent and Catholique King of Spain Honorable and sincerely beloved WHat my mind and purpose is touching the translating of the Electorship to the Duke of Bavaria according to the promise I made him and wherefore I think that business so necessary and profitable as for Germany in generall so particularly for securing our House from all attempts of Heretiques as his Holiness exhorts me not to be further delayed You shall understand as well by conference with Father Jacinthus whom his Holiness hath for that purpose addressed unto me his Majesty of Spain my Nephew and other Catholiqne Princes of Germany as by these ensuing reasons whereof the principall are That when I repeat from the beginning the whole course of my Reign and the difficulties through which I have attained my Kingdoms and Provinces I behold with reverence the admirable providence of God over me which makes me the more bound to repose my trust in him and not to omit any occasion which may tend to the advancement of his glory and the honor of so admirable tried providence and therfore that I should use that most notable victory to the honor of God and extirpation of all seditious factions which are nourished chiefly among the Galvinists and that I should withdraw my self from that judgement that the Prophet threatens to the King of Israel Because thou hast dismissed a man worthy of death thy Son shall be for his soule The Palatine keeps now in Holland exiled not onely from the Kingdom which he rashly attempted but despoiled almost of all his own Territories expecting as it were the last cast of Fortune whom if by an impious kind of commiseration and subtile Petitions I be perswaded to restore to his Electorall dignity and nourish in my bosome as a troden half living snake what can I expect less then a deadly stinging For it is in vain for me to think that he should be able to discern the greatness of such a benefit For the Polititians saying is true Vltionem quaesivi gratiam oneri habere especially since the injuries he did me are so heynous his projects so subtile that although I should overcome him with Christian charity yet I should never be able to take him from the guilt of his offences and make him soundly faithfull unto me but he will always gape at all occasions whereby he may free himself from fear of his ill deservings and cover his own prostituted honor with new attempt Add hereunto the Calvinists institution of whose Sect the proper genius is to hold nothing either fraud or wickedness which is undertaken for the Religion no sanctity of oath nor fear of dishonour hinders them From such an one what caution can either the house of Austria or other Catholique Princes with whom he is no less in enmity because for Religion as because they are interessed in the war receive The King of England will be engaged but of the same Religion nor is there any thing mere easie then when there is occasion of perpetrating any wickedness to palliate it with a pretext of a breach of the League Histories are fraughted with examples in some there are no
