A REMONSTRATION Of the French Subiects Professing the Reformed Religion vnto the French KING SIR IT is strange and almost incredible that amongst so many Subiects which God hath beene pleased to submit vnder the obeysance of your Maiestie who boast ordinarily that they are much affected to the good of your affaires the conservation of your Crowne that neverthelesse there hath not beene one which hath endevoured and enforced himselfe to quench the fire which takes daily hold of your State and by little and little consumes the same and that to the contrary there is found a great number that haue taken great paines to adde more fewell to it and are yet daily seeking artificiall tricks and devises to maintaine and increase the same By right it should be their worke who can make Peace and Warre when they please if their private ends and particular profit which made them to raise those troubles contrary to the minde and intention of your Maiestie did not draw them backe and not of those which are assaulted and pursued in their consciences honors goods and liues and haue no other intention then to defend and preserue themselues from violences having never detested any thing more then troubles and seditious commotions and to the contrary nothing more loved and procured then the conservation of Peace Wherefore all the Lords Gentlemen and all your Maiesties other Subiects that follow them making profession of the Reformed Religion moved and driven by the affection and naturall Obligation that they owe vnto your Maiestie and to the conservation of your Kingdome they neither could or would vse any longer delay for to seeke and propoune of their side as they haue done continually all the fit and convenient meanes they could devise to preserue your State from ruine and subversion which haue threatned the same many times and yet at this present doe more then ever before and to reestablish a good Peace and publique tranquillitie who having continually shewed themselues prompt and willing to embrace the same it is manifest enough in what dangers and in conveniences they were likely to fall if God through his meere mercie had not preserved them In such manner that they haue but small hope to come to their desire vnlesse the Almightie God will be pleased to chauge the hearts of their enemies which are round about you and incline them to a pacification or Peace Looking rather that this their good disposition which they now manifest and their endevours which they will vse for to establish a firme and perfect Vnion betwixt all your Subiects both of the one and the other Religion in stead of being received and embraced shall be slandered and sinisterly interpreted as they haue beene continually by those which hate and feare nothing more then this reconciliation That neverthelesse the sayd Lords Gentlemen and other that follow them having continually taken great care to make their actions daily more and more manifest vnto your Maiestie and to leaue assured signes and witnesses of their desire which is to liue and die in the obedience and naturall subiection which they owe vnto your Maiestie and to make it appeare to all the world how much their hearts and wills are differing from the impostures and slanders which their adversaries adherents and ministers lay vpon them and that the Forces which they haue beene compelled to gather against their mindes doe tend to no other effect then to maintaine and conserue their Religion honours liues and goods They haue thought that such considerations ought not to hinder or stay them in their hunting and purchasing the effect of such a necessary and salutary a Peace for this Kingdome and to giue witnesse of their humilitie reverence and respect towards your Maiestie which they would haue sooner done if they had not esteemed and iudged that their enemies would haue thought or at least haue gone about to make others beleeue that the necessitie had compelled them vnto the same considering their Enemies assured your Maiestie that they were not likely to receiue any ayde from forraigne partes and if they should that they had no money to giue them content But it is certaine and known that they never haue wanted aide and succour from aboue and that their forces are such that none can denie but that they are able to resist their Enemies and to execute such ill designes if they would as they are taxed withall So then in the time of the first troubles or Civill Warres the deceased Prince of Conde besides the Lords Gentlemen and other that did accompany him did receiue and accept of the conditions of Peace concerning onely the Religion and the libertie of their Consciences presently after the death of the late Duke of Guise and the Marshall of Saint Andrew and the imprisonment of the late Constable Montmorancy which were the principall heads and conductors of the Armie If in the second troubles as soone as was offered vnto the aforesayd Prince of Conde and his followers and partakers the restablishing of the exercise of their Religion notwithstanding they were affisted mightily by forraigne forces and readie to assault the Towne of Chartres at the sight of their Enemies campe which was most wholy disbanded and disordered And that onely at the denunciation of Peace made by a Trumpet sent in the Kings name the sayd Prince did not onely surcease from the assault in hand but commaunded the fiege wholy to be raised and his Armie to retyre reporting neverthelesse no other reward for his prompt obedience then a bloodie peace full of perfidiousnes If in the sayde troubles the next day after the Battaile at Saint Denis the sayd Prince did send vnto the King Monsieur de Tiligny to shew his Maiestie the ruine and desolation that was likely to fall

that shall tend to your good and the greatnesse of your State being readie to imploy to the same effect all their estates and meanes which God hath pleased to grant them besides their bodies to their vttermost power Not acknowledging in this world any other Soueraing or Principalites then yours in which obedience and subiection they will liue and die as your most humble most faithfull and obedient Seruants and Subiects Iuly 30. 1622.
