They were so audacious as to assault the Lord Constable's hous hee beeing Chief of that Citie and having heard that the Dutchess Donia Maria de Tobar Marquess of Berlanga a Ladie of great worth had threatned them they came one daie in great number thither and having environed the hous they shot off a piece of Ordnance which beat down a corner of the Tower so they entred into the hous the Dutchess was forc'd to hide her self in som secret by-place They went also to Garci Ruiz de la Mota his hous who had been Commissioner in that last Parlament brother to Maestro Mota Bishop of Badajos and Palencia with intent to kill him but not finding him for hee was fled they burned and pluck't down his hous where were consumed great number of Writings as Deeds and Charters and manie other papers concerning the King and Kingdom which hee had in keeping That which they burned in Mota's hous was valued above three Millions when they carried it to the place where they made the Bonfire into which they cast all the moveables they could finde in the hous as pure linnen rich tapistrie-hangings cloaths houshold-stuff and manie chests or trunks full all which they burned without making benefit of anie thing which was a wonder considering the condition of such mean people In the like furie they went and pulled down the hous of one of the King's Harbingers named Garci Iofre who though hee was a Frenchman born had been a long time in the King of Spain's service and the Emperor's Hee was married and had his dwelling in that Citie they were incensed against him for no other reason but becaus the Emperor had given him the command of the Hous and Castle of Lara which Burgos pretended was theirs and they demanded it of him but becaus hee told them that hee had received that Castle of the Emperor and that hee could not deliver it to anie but his Majestie they went to kill him neither stopped their furie there for poor Iofre being unfortunately there that daie beeing returned from France whither hee went by the Emperors command with the French Embassador and seeing how they plucked his Houses down hee went to Lara saying That hee hoped in God to bee revenged and to build up his Houses much better with those Rascal's monie then they were when they pulled them down and that hee should make morter of their bones and temper the chalk with their blood This being known in the Citie by the report of a Collier to whom Iofre spoke it by the waie they sent som men on hors-back privately after him who overtook him in a little village called Vivar del Cid three leagues from Burgos where drawing him out of the Church they apprehended him had cut him in pieces there but for som Gentlemen who qualified them for the present yet they would not let him go out of their hands but brought him to Burgos back again and clapt him into prison where with blows and thrusts they soon dispatched him and beeing dead they tied his feet together and dragged him first to his own door striking and pinking his bodie with their swords all the waie then they drew him through all the streets and at last hanged him with his head downwards Don Inigo Fernandez de Velasco Lord High Constable who was at Villalpando being informed hereof by a Letter from the Cardinal wherein hee desired him for the love of God to go speedily set som remedie and order in that Citie went presently to Burgos and out of affection in regard those of his familie for manie successions had been born in that Citie he took upon him the staff and office of Governor which the Inhabitants most willingly embraced there hee continued som time whose presence was the onely remedie and means to hinder the enraged people of that Citie from committing a thousand other Insolencies What happened afterwards you shall hear hereafter SECT XLI A Certain Judg nam'd Hernan Gomez de Herrera whose wife and familie was in Madrid took that occasion to go from Valladolid thither but being arriv'd the People began to mutinie saying That hee was com thither to take examinations against Toledo at which nois manie People assembled presently together and went in a tumultuous manner to apprehend him in his hous but hee having notice thereof used means forthwith to bee secretly conveied out of the Citie so hee escaped with fear enough for if the Common-people had light upon him they would have given him hard measure Thence the disorderly Multitude went to Francisco de Varas his hous one of the Council and took away all the Arms they could finde as Fowling-pieces Arquebusses Cros-bows Arrows Pikes four hundred Corslets and manie Halberds which they put into a strong place for their own defence when occasion should require they set Guards all the Citie over watching and going their rounds

THose of the Iunta beeing possessed of Tordesillas and having the Queen with her familie and the whole Kingdom in their own hands manie people believed that shee was recovered and that shee was well-pleased with the proceedings of those of the Iunta The increasing of this opinion and their credit with the people raised their thoughts to things of higher consequence and the novelties which everie daie did produce were already swoln to so great a number and spred into so manie parts that it is impossible to relate them so cleerly fully and distinctly as I would The pretence of the Iunta was so plausible bearing the sugared name which they gave it of Libertie and exemption from unjust taxes and evil government that divers other places were likewise in Arms for them And it was a miracle that anie place stood out For they favored and countenanced them that followed their faction and those of the contrarie Partie were perpetually under the lash of their persecution In Palencia the people mutinied and would have killed the brother to their Bishop Mota with divers Canons and other Priests of the Citie becaus they had given possession of the Bishoprick to the said Mota whom they extreamly hated In Alcala de Henares they turned the Governor and the Vicar-General to the Arch-Bishop out of the Citie becaus they hated the Arch-Bishop for beeing a kinsman to Xeures and a stranger Medina prepared to make open War against Coca and Alaejos in revenge of the mischiefs and losses which they had susteined by Antonio de Fonseca It would bee an endless task to undertake to give a particular relation of their outrages what persecutions robberies and murthers were committed in each place Those of Segovia did not lie still either but were perpetually making new attempts against the Earl of Chinchon and the Town of Espinar which they assaulted and sacked as if they had been Infidels carrying away their wives and daughters some of whose husbands following after the Segovians said That if their wives went with them beyond a certain limit they should keep them for ever SECT VI. I Mentioned in the rising of Burgos the prudence and courage which the Lord high Counstable to detain and suppress the furie of that disorderly people had shewed in taking upon himself the Autoritie and care of administring Justice to the great contentment and rejoicing of the Citizens But the inconstant Vulgar upon no occasion lost the respect which was due to so honorable a person never considering how advantageous it would have been for them to have suff●red themselvs to bee governed by him in such troublesom times That which they pretended to bee the caus of their respectless audacitie was That when Medina del Campo did besiege Alaejos Segovia Salamanca Avila and other Cities having assisted them with men to destroie that Town out of the exceeding hatred which they bore Antonio de Fonseca Burgos would do the like out of revenge of the Merchandise which they lost in Medina by Fonseca's burning it But the Lord High Constable satisfied them otherwise And becaus his son offered himself to bee their Captain which the people imagined hee did onely out of subtiltie and cunning to amuse them or for som other by-respect they began to bee jealous of him this suspicion ingendred a mortal hatred insomuch that their furie grew beyond the bounds of moderation and obedience The Lord high Counstable had privately conveyed into his hous four hundred Lances Which beeing known in the Citie the Regidores and Gentlemen assembled and sent two of their companie to summon him Hee excused himself saying hee was very ill and could not go to them But they told him that they could not bee satisfied with that answer hee must rise and go with them At last hee went and was civilly received beeing com amongst them two of the Assemblie in the names of all the rest rose up and thus bespake him Wee are very sorrie and grieved that the honor and affection wherewith this Citie hath alwaies served your Lordship and your Ancestors beeing Persons of so great qualitie natives and in a maner Lords of all this Citie which is the chief of Castilla should bee so ill requited as that you should keep secretly in your hous four hundred Lances to destroie the people wee require you forthwith to dismiss them and reserv onely twentie servants about you if not the Citie will take their remedie This was not very pleasing to the Lord Constable but it behoved him to satisfie their desires Yet notwithstanding hee condescended to their wills the suspicions ceased not neither were the people pacified Upon our Ladie 's daie of September their furie broke out and all the Commonaltie rose up in Arms against him in such a raging manner that they had killed him if hee had not retired to his hous where almost
