Emperours and 30. Kings of diuers Countries I resolued with my selfe to commend the same to the honourable Patronage of the Illustrious house of Howard for these reasons following First because of the singular excellencie of this name in whose extraction no fewer then 12. Emperours and 30. Kings of diuers Countries are contained whereof most part are the same Emperours and Kings which do occurre in the extraction common to the aboue-named two most Noble Princes as shall bee shewed God-willing in our Latine worke and truely it must needs be a thing that doth much illustrate and commend the exceellencie and honour of our King and Country to haue such Subiects as this worthy house doth yeeld being so Nobilitated by the meanes both of their Princely descent and of their publicke deserts as they are Secondly because of a certaine kind of honourable and notable similitude and affinity that the Noble name of Howard hath with the Royall name of Steward for both names do signifie in the old Saxon tongue as much as the Warden or Gouernour of a a Place Fort or Castle both being at the first imposed by reason of the charge preferment and place the two first persones that were so named did beare in the Common-wealth So that these two Sur-names may truely say that which many other Sur-names cannot say which is that the first two Wights that euer bare the names of Steward and Howard as they were both borne in South-britanny so were they both men of quality reputation and rancke and euen such as wee commonly name Gentlemen and Noblemen Moreouer as both names giue the Lyon Rampant though different in coulour for their badge or Armes so both can fetch their Pedigree from diuers of the same Emperours and Kings of diuers Countries and namely from Kings of England and Scotland Likewise both names haue beene matched with the Royall bloud of England for as Margaret a daughter of England was married to a Royall Steward of Scotland King Iames the 4. in the which businesse a Noble Howard had an especiall employment so Katherine a daughter of the house of Howard was married to a King of England Henry the 8. Besides that famous Queene Elizabeth was descended from this Illustrious house on her mothers side the Lady Anne Bolen whose mother was the Lady Elizabeth Howard Countesse of Wilshire and Ormond daughter to Thomas the first of this name Duke of Norfolke As also the foresaid two Names haue had the fortune to seeke and aime at a three-fold matrimoniall Vnion one with another The first attempt and designe of marriage but hindered was betweene a Royall Steward euen a matchlesse Queene Mary and a Princely Howard Thomas the third of this name Duke of Norfolke brother to Henry Earle of Northhampton Lord Priuy-seale father to Thomas Earle of Suffolke Lord Chamberlaine Grand-father to Thomas Earle of Arundell the sonne of Earle Phillip The second attempt or designe of marriage was betweene the sonne and daughter of the fore-said two Princes to wit betweene Charles-Iames ●…ward Prince of Scotland and the Lady Margaret Howard which was likewise hindred with the former The third designe onely tooke effect by the vniting-meanes of our Concording-King the Maker of the marriage betweene Charles Howard Earle of Nottingham Lord Admirall and the Lady Margaret Steward daughter of Iames Earle of Murrey Thirdly it hath bene the common fortune of both these names to reape much good lucke and preferment either of them by the meanes of three Ladies being both of the same Country and of the same names to wit either of them by two Margarets and one Elizabeth The three English Ladies which brought good fortune to the Royall name of Steward were these first Margaret the
