A18594	Englands mourning garment worne heere by plaine shepheards, in memorie of their sacred mistresse, Elizabeth; queene of vertue while she liued, and theame of sorrow being dead. To the which is added the true manner of her emperiall funerall. With many new additions, being now againe the second time reprinted, which was omitted in the first impression. After which followeth the shepheards spring-song, for entertainment of King Iames our most potent soueraigne. ...	Chettle, Henry, d. 1607?	1603 (1603)	STC 5122; ESTC S104885	24,274	50

a conuicted Deputie was that hee went about by poyson to haue tooke away the life of Feff Mac Hue a Rebell more immane and barbarous than any of the other two the Lord chiefe Iustice of the Common Pleas yet liuing opening at the same time how iust a spirit her Maiestie was possessed with that she hated treason euen to traytors much more then to annointed Kings whose honours and reputations shee so maintained that shee not long since punished by fine and imprisonment a wealthie rayler for vnreuerent words spoken against the person of King Philip her open and professed enemie So faithfull so iust so gracious was she And to make it more plaine that Spaine intended England the first wrong long time before it was muttered but after that memorable battaile of Lepanto wherein Don Iohn of Austria obtained the tryumphant Christian victorie against the Turkes to reward him England was the Kingdome set downe being then in her Maiesties possession but hee had it when they could giue him it that promised the same which was at latter Lammas And I trust his Neece shal haue as good successe with her pretended title For if God strengthened her Maiestie so that against her being a woman they could not preuaile we trust his Almightinesse will be as carefull of our King being alreadie Lord of three such people as haue seldome beene equalled in battel except they haue vnnaturally contended among themselues the sight of which day deere shepheards let vs pray neuer againe to see Besides to expresse her farther intent to preserue faith and league notwithstanding infinite of open wrongs and certaine knowledge that a Nauie for inuasion of this Realme had been preparing more than fifteene yeere yet did she beare vntill against all law of Nations the Ambassador liedger of Spaine honoured with many fauours did notwithstanding plot and confeder with natiue traitors of this land and the matter being apparantly proued hee was by her milde sufferance admitted to depart the Realme without any violence to his perpetuall reproch and her neuer-dying glorie Well I will heere conclude touching this vertue of faith both toward God and man shee was as firme in the one as mortalitie could be and in the other approued glorious among all the Princes of her time For Hope the second diuine vertue shee rather therein abounded than was any way wanting for her Hope was no way wandring shee beleeued and it came to passe her enemies arise but before their arising shee was certaine to see them fall shee hauing by example of things past nothing doubted of things to come And she was not deceiued till the houre of her death For euer her expectation was fulfilled she kept peace within chased the spoyler without and euen as it is sung of Epaminondas that valiant Theban Captaine in his last victorious battaile wherein yet death of him got victorie he thus gloried Herein am I comforted that I dye a conquerour For euen when death laide his last siege to her yet vnvanquished life Tyrone the long disturber of her State besought by agents mercie at her feete O Nymphs and Shepheards doubt not she was full of diuine Hope whose heart obtained euer the thing it faithfully desired and that her desires were all of faith I could adde infinite examples to these alreadie alleadged but that it is needelesse to cast water in the Sea or to make question of that all men knowe and will confesse except some whose hearts are straungers from Truth and the professed Receptacles of falsehood Her Charitie the third and principall diuine Grace to the eye of mortals for that Faith and Hope bend principally their seruice to Heauen and Charities effects are manifested on earth hath beene extended ouer all her Realmes and stretched to the comfort of her oppressed neighbours The multitudes of poore daily releeued from her purse the numbers of sicke persons yeerely visited and by her owne hand their corrupt sores toucht the washing of poore womens feete and releeuing their wants was a signe that shee was humble as well as charitable for Humilitie is Charities sister they are two twins born at one time and as they are borne together in any soule whateuer so do they liue and die together the humble spirit being euer charitable and the charitable euer humble for it is as impossible to haue a proud man charitable as to reconcile fire and water or to make accord betweene any contraries As she was in these particulars exceeding all Ladies of her time giuen to this helpfull vertue so had she generall impositions through all her kingdome for her well able subiects to followe her example and so much did her example preuaile that besides the ordinarie and weekely almes distributed through the Realme there haue beene more particular Almes-houses builded for the reliefe of the aged then in anie sixe Princes Raignes before And as all parts of England haue in this imitation bin very forward so hath the Citie of London exceeded all wherein diuers priuate men haue builded sundrie houses for the poore and allowed them pensions but the Corporations haue beene most bountiful as most able and among all the right Worshipfull the Merchant-Tailors haue exceeded the rest all haue done well that haue done anie thing but they best of any other as I will one day in a song of liberall Shepheards thankfully expresse though for my selfe I knowe him not in the least gift to whom I am in that sort boundē but I ken not Thenot how I may for there is none liuing but may lack As the City so many knights Gentlemen honorable and deuout persons haue followed her example aboue the rest an honorable carefull reuer end and learned watchman as full of mildnesse pietie as he is of yeares and griefes for his good and royall Mistresse losse at Croiden hath builded a worthy Receptacle to the like charitable end As for the poore and decrepit with age her Royall Maiestie had this charitable care so for souldiers and suters she was very prouident The last being opprest in any part of her Realmes by men of much wealth and little conscience shee allowd them counsell and proceedings in Forma pauperis and maintenance weekely in the Termes for some part of their succour if any were delayd and abused it was vtterly against her will For souldiers and men of seruice her decrees of prouision are extant besides it is most cleare no Prince in the world to land or Sea-men was more bountifull or at least willing than her Highnesse out of her Coffers it went but there is an olde Prouerbe Thenot carriage is deere and I haue heard but I will stand to nothing base Ministers and vnder-officers curtall the liberalities of great and potent Maisters Some haue in her time beene taken with the manner and besides bodily punishment and fines displaced as I will remember and cannot omit amid my griefe to tell though somewhat from this subiect it dissent being of a fellow too meane
