example which being arrived to the recovery of Ierusalem under the conduct of Godfrey of Bullion on their own accord gave him that Kingdom for that he first scaled the walls of that City Our most serene Elect is not inferior for he first also Ascended two main Fortresses of the Enemy The moment of time adorns this Victory unheard-of in many ages the most serene King Michael dying the day before as it were signifying thereby that he gave way to so great valour as if it were by his command and favour that this Conqueror might so much the more gloriously suceed from the Helmet to the Crown from the Commanders Staff to the Scepter from his lying in the Field to the Regal Throne The Commonwealth recalled the grateful and never to be forgotten memory of his Renowned Father the most Illustrious and Excellent Iames Sobietski Castellion of Cracovia a Man to be written of with sedulous care who by his Golden Eloquence in the publick Counsels and by his Hand in the Scene of War had so often amplified the State of the Commonwealth and defended it with the Arms of his Family Neither can we believe it happened without Divine Providence that in the same place wherein forty years ago his Renowned Father Embassador of the Polonian-Common wealth had made Peace and Covenants with Cimanus the Turkish General his great Son should Revenge with his Sword the Peace broke Heaven it self upbraiding the perfidious Enemy The rest of his Grandsires and Great-Grandsires and innumerable Names of Famous Senators and great Officers have as it were brought forth light to the serene Elect by the emolous Greatness and Glory of his Mothers descent especially Stanislaus Zelkievius High Chancellor of the Kingdom and General of the Army at whose Grave in the Neighbouring fields in which by the Turkish rage in the year 1620 he died his victorious Nephew took full revenge by so remarkable an overthrow of the Enemy The immortal valour and fatal fall of his most noble Uncle Stanislaus Danilovitius in the year 1635 Palatine of Russia doubled the Glory of his Ancestors whom desirous of honour and not induring that sluggish Peace wherein Poland then slept secure valour and youthful heat accited at his own expence and private forces into the Taurick fields that by his footing and the ancient Warlike Polonian discipline he might lead and point the way to these merits of Sobietski and being slain by Cantimiz the Tartarian Cham in revenge of his Son by him flain he might by his Noble blood give lustre to this Regal Purple neither hath the people of Poland forgot the most illustrious Marcus Sobietski elder Brother of our most serene Elect who when the Polonian Army at Batto was routed by the Barbarians although occasion was offer'd him of escape yet chose rather to die in the overthrow of such valiant men a Sacrifice for his Countrey than to buy his life with a dishonourable retreat perhaps the divine Judgment so disposing whose order is that persons pass away and fail and causes and events happen again the same that by the repeated fate of the Huniades the elder Brother of great hopes removed by a lamented slaughter might leave to his younger Brother surviving the readier passage to the Throne That therefore which we pray may be happy Auspicious and fortunate to our Orthodox Commonwealth and to all Christendome with free and unanimous Votes none opposing all consenting and applauding by the right of our free Election notwithstanding the Absence of those which have been called and not Appeared We being led by no private respect but having only before
