THE MIRROUR OF TRUE Nobility Gentility BEING THE LIFE OF The Renowned Nicolaus Claudius Fabricius Lord of Peiresk Senator of the Parliament at AIX Written by the Learned Petrus Gassendus Professor of the Mathematicks to the King of FRANCE Englished by W. Rand Doctor of Physick Vivit post Funera Virtus London Printed by J. Streater for Humphrey Moseley and are to be sold at his Shop at the Princes Arms in St. Pauls Church-yard 1657. NICOLAVS CLAVDIVS FABRICIVS DE PEIRESO SENATOR AQVENSIS 〈…〉 To the ingenious and learned Gentleman the worshipful John Evelyn Esquire Worthy Sir MUch about ten years are fled since my learned friend Dr. Benjamin Worsley brought me first acquainted with the name and fame of Peireskius and knowing that I delighted to busie my self in that kind wished that I would render his History into English And not long after my good friend Squire Harlib seconded his Motion and put the Latine Book into my hand to take home with me and peruse and consider of Which I did but finding it so knottie a piece both in respect of the matter and the presse and elegantly concise style of the learned and judicious Gassendus I had not the courage to venture upon it but restored my friend his Book without any more adoe Since which time having during our intestine broiles in England spent an ordinary Apprenticeship in Contemplation of the Belgic Provinces of Holland Utrecht Brabant Flanders and their many fair Citties and Universities of which that of Lovaine seems likest ours as much resembling Cambridge in many respects not long after my return I was a fresh importuned by another friend to let our Countreymen understand the Life of the renowned Peireskius Which at last though with very much dissidence I did undertake and accomplish and how I have therein acquitted my self you are best able to judge who besides your parts of wit and learning know by experience the labour and care belonging to such works and are best qualified to excuse an over-sight or mistake You know that Gassendus a general Scholar and one of the greatest wits in Europe and a perfect Master of the Roman Language comparable to any of the ancients could not have taken in hand an Argument that would have more effectually called forth and employed the utmost of all his Activities than to write the Life of this rare French Gentleman whose sprightful curiosity left nothing unsearcht into in the vast and all-comprehending Dominions of Nature and Art Having finished the Story I was long in Quest to whom I might pertinently dedicate the same being apparelled a la mode d'Angle terre and pertinency I have alwaies esteemed the Soul of a Dedication While this care was upon me it was my good hap accidentally to over-hear the Character of your worthy self so expressed in a Book-sellers shop in Cornhil where I was then reading that I concluded you were the only man I ever heard of in England whose Peireskian Vertues did challenge this Dedication And upon enquiry learning your name and remembring that I had bin once civilly entertained by you in the company of my deceased Kinsman Dr. Rapha Rand of Goddalming at our Fathers house of Wotton in Surrey I concluded that the sutableness of your Genius with that of Peireskius the respects my Kinsman aforesaid frequently found at your Fathers house both when sicknesse required his presence and at other times and your Fathers civility to my self having been once his guest at bed and board with your own kind entertainment of me after his death and finally the constant affection of that worthy gentlewoman your near kinswoman and the relict widdow of my Cosen aforesaid upon all occasions expressed towards me did necessitate me to cry Heurica and to conclude that Peireskius could not more justly be by me presented to any other than your ingenious self to receive his first entertainment into England None can I perswade my self more prize him no man is more fit effectually to recommend him to the acquaintance of our English Gentry That from him they may learn That knowledge which is the highest perfection of Man by which he differs from Bâ—asts must needs be the principal accomplishment of a Gentleman and that the compleatly-knowing man must be Janus-like double-fac'd to take cognizance of Time past and to understand the world from its cradle as far as any Monuments of Antiquity can give Light as well as of the late-past or present times wherein he lives Hunting and Hawking are exercises allowed to preserve and encrease health and strength but no genuine and proper Characters of a Gentleman which he that wholly gives himself to while he catches a Bird or Beast he loses himself becomes like one of them gaining little to speak of but an humor inclinable to Tyrany like that of Nimrod the mighty Hunter and Proto-Tyrant of the world From our Peireskius it is to be hoped through your example and recommendation the English Gentry will for time to come understand â—ow to improve their great leasure and Faculties of Person and Estate so as to render themselves in the highest measure fit to serve God by serving the Common-wealth in the most weighty concernments thereof And that the complaint of that most noble ingenious and pious Gentleman Mr. George Herbert sometimes University Oratour of Cambridge may hereafter be out of date which as yet is too seasonable and necessary and because I fear little laid to heart I shall not think it tedious or any waies impertinent here to recite the same as it is recorded in his Church-Porch page the third staffe the fifth where after his most ingenious and pithie manner he thus schooles and chides our English Gentry Fly Idlenesse which yet thou canst not fly By dressing mistrissing and Complement If those take up thy day the Sun will cry Against thee for his Light was only lent God gave thy Soul brave wings put not those feathers Into a Bed to sleep out all ill weathers Art thou a Magistrate then be severe If studious copy fair what time hath blur'd Redeem truth from his jaw's If Souldier Chase brave employments with a naked sword Throughout the world Fool not for all may have If they dare try a glorious Life or Grave O England full of sin but most of sloth Spit out thy Flegm fill thy Brest with Glory Thy Gentry bleats as if thy native cloth Trans-fus'd a sheepishnesse into thy Story Not that they all are so but that the most Are gone to Grasse and in the Pasture lost This losse springs chiefly from our Education Some Till their Ground but let Weeds choak their Sonne Some mark a Partridge never their Child's fashion Some ship them over and the thing is done Study this Art make it thy great design And if Gods Image move thee not let thine Some great Estates provide but do not breed A mast'ring mind so both are lost thereby Or else they breed them tender make
field a scarlet label for distinction sake It is recorded that he also was Governour of Ere 's and of intimate acquaintance with Charles the Third to whom the King of France did soon succeed From him the familie was again divided into two Branches for he had two Sons Fulke and William both of them expert Souldiers and skillfull in the Lawes For having borne Armes in the Expedition of Pidmont after their return they gave themselves wholly to the study of the Laws For William the younger being adopted by his great Uncle Elziarius Portanerius Brinoniensis a learned Man he went to Orleance and Vierron to study the Laws and having married a wife who was an Arvernian he setled his abode in that Country to expresse his gratitude he took unto himself the Coat of Armes of the House of Portaneria which was a Bende with Roses argent in a field Azure And he left behind him besides Hugh a famous Lawyer another Son named John the father of another John who begat another John the Father of that John who is now Master of Requests having two Honourable Ladies to his Sisters viz. the Lady Magdalena wife to the ilustrious Chancellor of France the Lady Mary wife to Philbertus Pompadorius Viceroy or Governour of the Limosins But Fulke after the Supreame Senate was erected at Aix in the beginning of the soregoing Age did plead causes with great commendation and was many times by the Governours of that Province taken in to sit with them as an Assistant and employed more then once to Lewis the twelfth and to Francis the first Who perceiving the Learning and Integritie of Fulke made him a Senator by his bare command in the year 32. And when the Emperour Charles was about to invade Provence he joyned him as Counsellour to Annaeus Monmorantius Generall of his Majesties Forces Also that good Advice is worthy to be recorded which he gave to Monmorancie which he also practised transporting the ancient Records of the Crown into the Castle of Baulcs by which meanes those precious Monuments escaped burning when as afterwards the Palace of Aix was fired by the Duke of Savoy his Souldiers Moreover when the City could not hold out against the Emperours forces he advised the Cittizens to withdraw themselves and that they might not leave any thing therein to relieve the Enemie he began in so good earnest to exhort them to destroy their food and what else might advantage the Enemie that he himself was the first that emptied his Granarie into a well and staved his vessels of Wine and Oyle and let them run about the Streets Fulke being dead his Son Nicolaus was made a Senator in the year 45. whos 's virtue also was taken notice of not only by Claudius Sabaudus Governour of Provence and Earle of Tenda but also by Charles the 9th himself Who taking away the Senate and setting in place thereof a Coutt of ten Chief-Justices it was his pleasure that Nicolaus should be one of the ten and he gave of his own accord to his Brother Charles after he had brought his forces off from the Expedition of Corsica and behaved himself there exceeding Valiantly the Lordship of Brigantium to him and his Heires And now that we may draw near to the Father of our Peireskius Nicolaus left two Sons Claudius and Reginaldus Claudius had a small and infirme body but a mind truly generous and mettlesome so that from the year 72. in which he was invested with the Honour and Dignity of his Father and Grandfather he was much renowned both in the Senate and the whole Province and exceeding favoured by Henricus Engolismensis great Master of the French Knights of Malta and Viceroy of Provence But Reginald being brought up from a boy with Renata Dutchess of Ferraria and Daughter of Lewis the twelfth when shee betook her self to passe over her old daies at Montargis he gave himself to study the Law and was made one of the Lords of the Subsidies and the Church's Patrimony and a Master of the accounts And when those troublesome times of the Henotick faction or league happened he and his Brother remained constant in their Loialtie to the King which Bernardus Nogaretius Valletanus at that time Viceroy counted a notable piece of service he procured by the power that he had the Castle of Ere 's and all that Coast to revolt from the Duke of Savoy And whereas his Brother lived a single life he himself married Margareta Bomparia who of her Fathers side was descended from Knights and Praesidents and on her Mothers side shee did belong to the families of Vallevoria and Forbinus Now we have heard it reported that shee was of so neat and comely a countenance and so composed that when Catharina Medicea the Queen Mother was visited at Aix by the Ladies of that place shee made choice of her alone among all the rest upon whom he would vouchsafe to bestow the honour of a Kisse And this Reginaldus Fabrius it was and this very Margarcta Bomparia whom our Peireskius of whom we treat did acknowledge for his Parents But because he was born at Beaugensier we must take notice that this Towne is seated in a very straight yet exceeding pleasant valley enriched by the Interfluxe of the same River Gapell It is distant from Tolon on this hand and from Ere 's on that just as far as those Cities are distant one from the other namely about three Province miâ—es and being seated North of both it likewise far excells them in goodnesse of Aire The nearnesse of situation was the cause that his Ancestors having their abode at Ere 's did not only procure certaine Country houses in that Towne but in their retirement thither they dwelt in an ancient Castle which is now demolished for the House with those goodly Gardens joyning to it was not yet built into which that water might more safely and plentifully be derived from the adjacent River Claudius built a fair Aqnaeduct or Conduit Peireskius therefore was born in the Castle of Belgenser or Beaugensier aforesaid 1580. when his Parents did retire thither by reason of that memorable Pestilence which in the year 1580. began to rage all over Provence but especially at Aix He was born upon the first day of December in the year aforesaid near upon seven a-Clock in the Evening Which I therefore mention that I may not seeme negligent touching the Circumstance of time but not to give an occasion to Fortune-tellers to calculate his Nativitie and tell his destinie after his Death with more certainty then they were able to do during his life For it is wonderfull to consider how many lies the Astrologers have told either in respect of years which he never lived or of Wife and Children other things which he never had or touching many other things which he attained Moreover his Parents having lived together divers years without a Child his Mother for that cause as soon as she
thousand parts and observed that our Provence Palme or Span which is the 8th part of a Can or Rod does contain only seven hundred sixty and three of those parts but the old Roman foot containes nine hundred and six of the said parts the English foot nine hundred thirty three that of Holland 966 that of Lions and Grenoble a thousand fifty and two and that of Florence one thousand eight hundred and two But of this enough and too much I return now to Peireskius who soon after in the year 1610. went again to Mon-pellier And having effected his businesse according to his hearts desire he returned in the beginning of May at which time he happened to dream a dream 1610. which as often as he related to me which was divers times he would alwayes premise that if another should have related it unto him he could not have beleeved it There was in his company Jacobus Rainerius a Citizen of Aix who was wont to lodge in the same chamber with him and their lodging was at the white Inn between Monpellier and Nismes Now Peireskius was in a dream and talked to himself obscurely of I know not what strange businesse whereupon Rainerius awaked him asking him what was the matter To whom he replied Alas and well away what a sweet and pleasant dream have you robbed me of I dreamt I was at Nismes and that the Goldsmith offered to sell me a golden piece of Julius Caesars coin for four Cardecues and I was just ready to give him the money that I might have the piece whereas by your unseasonable waking of me the Goldsmith vanished out of my sight and the piece of coin out of my hands Soon after not thinking of the dream he went to Nismes and while dinner was making ready he walkt about the Town Now it happened wonderfully that he hit upon a Goldsmith and asking him if had any rarities he answered that he had a Julius Caesar in gold He asked him what he would take for it he said Four Cardecues Whereupon he presently gave him the money took his Julius Caesar and so was his dream wonderfully and most happily fulfilled Wonderfully I say for he might easily think upon Nismes whither he was to go the following day he might well dream of that piece of Coin of Julius Caesar which waking he had often desired and that he might meet with it in that City wherein there were so many reliques of Romane Antiquity and he might dream of a Goldsmith for to men of that trade such pieces are commonly brought by them which dig them up he might dream of an indifferent price such as Goldsmiths rather than Antiquaries are wont to set upon such commodities he might have thought of four Cardecues with which as a moderate price a Goldsmith might be content Finally a Goldsmith and at Nismes might have such a piece at such a price but that all these should concur and that the event should answer to the dream is altogether wonderfull Yet Peireskius was not the man that would conclude that this dream did therefore proceed from any preternaturall cause if such dreams had often happened he might peradventure have thought so but knowing the sport which Fortune is wont to make he reckoned this accident onely among those rare cases which are wont to amaze the vulgar such as they likewise relate of Eudemus the familiar acquaintance of Aristotle at Pherae and of the two Arcadians at Megara and some other such like howbeit the truth of all such like Histories rests wholly upon the credit of the Relatours Afterwards Peireskius stayed certain dayes at Arles that besides many other observations elsewhere he might curiously search into certain rare monuments at the monastery of Mon-majour And when returning from thence he came neer to Salon a Post met him from the Arch-Bishop to acquaint him speedily with the unheard of and lamentable death of King Henry Being wonderfully daunted he made haste neverthelesse to comfort Varius who was already acquainted with the thing and was beginning to endeavour by sending Messengers and Letters to preserve the Inhabitants of Provence in their obedience Moreover it is not to be forgotten how at the very beginning of the yeer and before Peireskius departed from Mon-pellier there was brought him out of Spain an Almanack or yeerly Prognostication made by Hieronymus Ollerius of Barcellona and the November foregoing printed at Valence in which the lamentable accident aforesaid was clearly foretold For he had so set down the circumstances of his nativity and certain principall things which had happened concerning him that no other King save Henry the Great could be thereby intended Which when he had shewed to Varius and acquainted Josephus Galterius Prior and the Lord of Valetta therewith a man excellently skilled in all the Mathematicall Arts but especially in Astronomy though no great heed were to be given to Astrologicall Predictions yet it seemed a matter not to be sleighted as concerning the life of so worthy a Prince Whereupon Varius presently sent the book to the King I shall not stand to relate how that great and truly generous Prince commending the care of Varius did contemn and sleight the Prognostication but because the event proved it to be true and Ollerius himself afterwards writing a Prognostication for the following yeer did wonderfully boast thereof therefore I must needs say that which at least may make it doubtfull whether it was from the stars or some other hints rather that he conjectured the said event For as for the vanity of Astrologie it is needlesse for me to speak any thing in this place especially seeing the nativities calculated 3 yeers since did prognosticate no ill till four yeers more were past Nor am I one of those that are in the least suspicious that the prophet had some traffick with evil spirits which might reveal and presage the same onely I say it is possible he was acquainted with the plot by which so an abominable and not to be named Parricide was committed Sure I am it could not be perfectly concealed neither in Spain nor in Italy for even the Kings Embassadours and namely the most excellent Johannes Bochartus Lord of Champigny then Agent at Venice had already pre-advertized his Majesty thereof And it was sufficiently proved that all the Sea-faring men of Marseilles who for two moneths before came from Spain brought word that there was a report spred abroad in Spain that the King of France either was already or should be killed by a sword or knife Also Peireskius related and writ to Malherbius that which may fitly be here inserted viz. How on the Saturday three dayes after that the kings death was published there passed thorow Aix a most illustrious Venetian of the family of the Priuli who had been Agent for the Commonwealth at Paris and was then going to be Agent at Madrid who when he went to visit Varius told him among other things how journeying thorow Millain
