KATHERINE Infanta OF PORTUGAL Queen of GREAT BRITAIN FRANCE and IRELAND only Daughter now living of King John IV. took her first breath at Villa-viciosa upon the Five and twentieth day of November being St. Katharines day in the year of our Redemption One thousand six hundred thirty and eight The Treaties and Articles of this Marriage were concluded in England with the Count Don Francisco de Melo Ambassador for the King of Portugal who departed hence with the Ratification of the said Treaty of Marriage Upon his Arrival I need not acquaint you with what Joy this News affected the King Queen Mother and the whole Court nor their most Solemn Demonstration thereof by discharging of their Cannon making of Bonefires and other Entertainments yet were the People unwilling to think of Parting with this their Pious Princess for whose sake they were wont to say God had given them so Signal and Frequent Victories over their Enemies Not long after by an Express from England from the King to Her the Infanta KATHERINE was Complemented with the stile of Queen of GREAT BRITAIN and then with what possible Speed could be made was expected for England all things being prepared in a readiness for so great a Princess and so long a Voyage Then upon the Thirteenth day of April this present year One thousand six hundred threescore and two She passed with the King Her Brother the Queen-Mother Don Pedro and the whole Court unto the side of the River Tagus through several Triumphal Arches and a sumptuous Gallery built upon that Occasion where Her MAJESTY was received by the Earle of Sandwich who conducted Her on Board a stately Brigandine whence amidst many Tire and Vollies of Cannon and many more farewel Acclamations in the same Princely Company and Equipage Her MAJESTY came aboard the ROYAL CHARLES and was welcomed with the Thunder of the whole Navy In the Evening after a Princely Collation and many passionate parting Expressions a Gun from the Admiral gave the Signal of Her MAJESTIES Resolution to depart when all hands were set on work to weigh Anchor and let flie their Sails The King and Queen-Mother and their Train took their Farewel with hearts equally composed of Grief and Joy and Re-imbarqued for Lisbon returning with the discharge of all the Ordnance and so immediately with a fair leading Gale the whole Fleet began their Course being as they passed out of the River saluted by all the Block-houses Forts and Castles That Night and part of the next Day the Wind stood very propitious but afterwards proved averse and stormy so that they were forced to labour to and fro with contrary Winds it being the Six and twentieth of April when they got into the middle of the Bay of Biscay Her MAJESTY by the continual working and tossing of the Sea having been sick the most part of the Voyage About the Fifth of May with unwearied labour and skill the whole Fleet reached the Islands of Scilly Her Arrival had been every day expected a Fortnight before which caused the King to send down the Duke of York Lord High Admiral to attend Her upon the Coast and to Complement Her MAJESTY in His Name whereupon His Highness hasted to Portsmouth and on the Tenth of May attended by the Duke of Ormond the Earls of Suffolk and Chesterfield the Lord Berkley and other Persons of Quality went aboard the stately YAUGH to Coast about to meet Her MAJESTY On Sunday morning about Ten of the Clock they discovered the ROYAL JAMES but there was so great a Calm they could not reach the ROYAL CHARLES till Six at Evening The Earl of Sandwich having discovered His Highness YAUGH went out in his Barge to meet Him the Royal Banner being all the while vailed till He was aboard when His Highness came into the Ship the Souldiers gave Three several Shouts and all the Guns in the ROYAL CHARLES which from the Queens entrance till that time had been silent proclaimed His Welcome after which the several Ships of the Fleet paid Him their Salutes The Thirteenth of May at night the Royal Fleet came to St. Helens Point the most Eastern Promontory of the Isle of Wight and on Wednesday the Fourteenth of May the Queen landed at Portsmouth about Four of the Clock in the Afternoon where She was received by the Nobility Gentry and multitudes of Londoners as also by the Mayor and Aldermen of that Corporation with all the Expressions of Joy His MAJESTY having received the Express of His Queens landing prepared to be gone forthwith to Salute Her upon Her Arrival But His great Affairs of State and Bills by Him to be Ratified into Acts of Parliament which were not fully ready for His Royal Assent delayed him till Monday the Nineteenth of May having sent before Him the Bishop of London who departed the Seventeenth in order to the Solemnizing of the Marriage when He took Coach from the House of Lords at Nine of the Clock in the Evening with His ordinary Guards and lodged that night at Gilford the next day His MAJESTY posted with the same speed to Portsmouth where He arrived about Noon The Queens indisposition which yet held Her in Her Chamber caused the King to satisfie Himself only with a Visit in private that day Yet it pleased God to restore Her Majesty to such a degree of health that she was soon after able to go abroad to consummate the Marriage-Rites which were there performed upon Wednesday the 21. of May by Gilbert Lord Bishop of London which being concluded His Majesty Bedded His most Princely Lady in His Town of Portsmouth The next Week their Majesties removed to Winchester thence to Farnham and then to Hampton Court where They spent most part of this Summer as well for the Healthfulness as Majesty of the Place Then on Saturday the 23. of August being the Eve of St. Bartholomew a Day
given out abroad that the Infante Don Edward was secretly fled for some misdemeanor from Leipen when he confident of his own innocency was in his journey to Ratisbone according to the summons and thereupon proposal made of Sixteen thousand Crowns as a reward to any man could bring him either dead or alive so that the Prince being ignorant of any such thing very hardly escaped their hands Don Edward cast into the Common Goal at Ratisbone who out of hopes of the money had gone in search of him but missing them he came to Ratisbone where he was no sooner received but without any reason given he was cast into a Common Goal and all his Servants imprisoned Don Francisco de Mello having thus far brought his desires to effect stopped not here but afresh sollicited the Emperour that the Prince might be delivered into the Spaniards hands and sent prisoner to Millain but instead of assenting to this he sends a Messenger to the Infante assuring him upon his word that he would not deliver him into the hands of the Spaniards but would speedily procure his liberty and infranchisement Yet notwithstanding these fair promises of the Emperours Don Edward's ill usage in prison daily and hourly increased nor could he by any means possible get audience of the Emperour not without reason for No face is more terrible to the offendor than the face offended which made the Prince make his protestation calling God and man to witness of the injury done him by the Emperour to whom he was neither subject by Obligation nor Birth that when his brother was made King of Portugal he was in the Emperours service and wholly ignorant of any design of his brothers that if the King of Spain were offended he should revenge himself upon the person offending that that business no way concerned the Emperour c. All these Allegations the Emperour confessed to be true by a Messenger sent to the Infante in prison again assuring him that he would not deliver him up to his enemies but that he could not release him for some reason of State which made Don Francisco de Sosa Contigno Ambassadour extraordinary from Portugal to the King of Sweden in the name of the King his Master represent at large to the Diet at Ratisbone the whole proceedings requiring Justice and Liberty for the Infante But it is in vain to plead against Interest all the Manifesto's Protestations Petitions and Intercessions made produced no other effect than the removal of the Infante from place to place that still as he was the farther off he might have the harder usage But hitherto the Emperour seemed immoveable in his resolution of not delivering up the Infante into the hands of the Spaniards till tempted with what made Judas betray his Master and our blessed Saviour to death Money he consented to the breach of his resolve for upon the promise of Forty thousand Crowns contrary to the immunities of the Empire to the Priviledges of Free Princes to the Law of Nations and to his Word and Promise so often reiterated he consented that that Noble and Innocent Prince should be sent whither the Catholique King should think fit so away he was hurried towards the Castle of Millain there to remain a prisoner By the way as he entred into the Spanish Territories he was received by the Count de Sirnela Governour of that Dukedom where the Emperours Commissary took leave to return to whom D. Edward openly said Tell thy Master that I am more sorry I have served so unworthy a Prince than to see my self sold a Prisoner into the hands of my enemies but the just Judge of the world will one day suffer the like dealing towards his children who are no more priviledged for being of the house of Austria than my self that am of the Blood-Royal of Portugal and Posterity will judge of him and me The Emperour had given instruction to those that Convoyed the Infante that in case their prisoner made an attempt to escape they should kill him upon the place being arrived in Millain he was clapt in the Common gate with all the Rogues and Banditty having a Guard lodged with him in his Chamber so rude that they would scarce admit him to take his rest in which Prison he most miserably dyed His Death upon the Third day of September in Years of CHRIST 1649 the Year of our Lord One thousand six hundred forty and nine Thus was this generous but unfortunate Prince rewarded for having left his Countrey Kindred Friends Interest for having at his own proper cost and charges served the Empire Eight years for having alwayes and upon all occasions ventured his life with the most daring and yet expecting no other pay but thanks nor other recompence but Honor. King John was extreamly perplexed at this inhumane barbarism used to his Brother which he vowed fully to revenge with Arms but he could for the present do it no otherwise than defensively by reason of the continual inroads the Castillians made into Portugal ALEXANDER OF PORTUGAL third Son of Theodosius II.
