a life to yield for her Majesty and my Country for the loss thereof I grieve not but rather for the harm that through defects I fear may come to her Majesty and the State and the shame I shall leave behind me This foreign preparation if there be any such thing is likely to be spent against Munster to seise upon and to spoil the Cities and Towns of the same which in truth are very weak If I shall go thither what for the late wars and this last bad season there is not so much to be had there as will maintain that one Band of 200. that is under Mr. Thomas Norris the Vice-President there but that I am inforced to shift them from Town to Town who by reason of their extreme penury do receive them with great grief and grudge And though I had men sufficient to encounter the Enemy that should come yet for want of victuals I should be driven to abandon the place with danger and shame where they that are to come over are like to bring their provision with them and to settle it in some Town that they will soon seise upon for that purpose whereof what may ensue amongst this unconstant people naturally delighting in change your Lordships may soon gather Besides this that I have said of the bare estate of Munster where there is not so much to be had as will serve for mine own family or yet to feed my horses till grass grow I refer you to understand not only the same more fully but also the great wants of the rest of the Realm by the declaration here inclosed which as Beverley the Victualler maketh it so I know it to be true And therefore I most humbly beseech your Lordships to send speedy order that such a Staple of victuals may be provided and be sent over as your Lordships shall think requisite to serve as well for the numbers here already as also for those that are to be sent over to encounter such an accident as may fall out And herein I would wish your Lordships to consider the winds and weather how untowardly they have framed this year for as some have lain at Chester nine weeks to come over hither so hath there been no passage since this six weeks Moreover if there be such purposes in hand it were good some shipping were dispatcht for the guard of the Coasts And to all these and other difficulties may I with your Lordships favour adde one more to be considered of How weakly I am seconded if need fall out by those forein attempts whereof I would say little for any other cause The Marshal is old and not able either to ride on go the Master of the Ordnance is both absent and old and I wish there were a more sufficient man in his place The Lord President and Sir William Stanley who are men of good conduct are drawn away Sir H. Harrington Mr. Edward Barkley and the Senescal Dantry are suffered to remain still there but I humbly pray they may be sped away together with all other that are Servitors by any manner of pay there And so having herein discharged my duty I humbly end From the Castle of Dublin the last of January 1585. Your Lordships most humble at commandment JOHN PERROT Earl of Desmond to the Earl of Ormond Iune 5. 1583. My Lord GReat is my grief when I think how heavily her Majesty is bent to disfavour me and howbeit I carry the name of an undutifull Subject yet God knoweth that my heart and mind are always most lowly inclined to serve my most loving Prince so it may please her Highness to remove her heavy displeasure from me As I may not condemn my self of disloyalty to her Majesty so cannot I excuse my faults but must confess that I have incurred her Majesties indignation yet when the cause and means which were found and devised to make me commit folly shall be known to her Highness I rest in an assured hope that her most gracious Majesty will both think of me as my heart deserveth and also of those that wrung me into undutifulness as their cunning device meriteth From my heart I am sorry that folly bad councels sleights or any other thing hath made me to forget my duty And therefore I am most desirous to get conference with your Lordship to the end I may open and declare to you how tyrannously I was used humbly craving that you will vouchsafe to appoint some time and place where and when I may attend your Honour and then I doubt not to make it appear how dutifull a mind I carry how faithfully I have at mine own charge served her Majesty before I was proclaimed how sorrowfull I am for my offences and how faithfully I am affected ever hereafter to serve her Majesty And so I commit your Lordship to God the 5. of June 1583. Subscribed GIRALD DESMOND Sir Henry Wallop to the Queen 12. Aug. 1583. IT may please your Majesty a rumor hath been raised not long since at Dublin I know not how nor by what particular person but strongly confirmed since the last passage out of England neither doth your service now in hand upon this Northern border suffer me to examine it that your Majesty conceived some hard opinion of me from which your Highness is not yet removed but what the offence is or how conceived is neither by the reporters published nor secretly revealed unto me And like as it is casie to judge what effects this may work in the service of your Majesty or to a man in publick office as I am in such a government as this is where the obedience for the most is constrained and all reputation with the people either growing or diminishing as your Majesty graceth or disgraceth your Officers so how much this quiet burthen over-presseth my most devoted and dutifull mind towards your Majesty I feel to my exceeding grief and discomfort In examining my self in what root this your judgment should spring I confesse Madam I have viewed in my self many imperfections some in nature others perhaps for lack of ability and sufficiency to be a cooperator or an assistant in so great and so ticklish a government charge into which not ambition in me but your Majesties wil commandment hath intruded me But in all that my memory can hitherto present unto me I find my loyalty in your service and my sincerity in imploying your Majesties treasure according to your intent so unspotted and direct as I cannot but comfort my self in opposing my innocency to the envy of the informer or to any other his hard construction whatsoever yet since in generall consideration I cannot feel such a particular error as might settle in your Majesties grave judgement an offence meriting your disfavour I am most humbly to beseech your Majesty that by knowing my fault I may either purge my self by a just deniall or by confessing it crave pardon of your Highness and reform my self

for that respect discontinue my writing to you and because no private businesse occurreth I will be bold to advise a line or two concerning the publick affairs of Italy Cassal is still made good against the Spanyard not by the Duke of Mantua for he poor Prince was long since bankrupt but by the succours of France and this Seignory the former contributing monthly 40000 Dollers the latter 20000 not only to maintaine the Cassaleschi but also to enable the Duke to stand fast against all other the Spanyards attempts mean while we hear say boldly that a league offensive and defensive against the Spanyards in Italy is concluded betweene the French and the Venetians and that the French King hath already sent out two Armies one under the Duke of Guise by sea who they say is landed at Nizza the other under the Marquess de Coeure who is marching hitherward through the Valtoline and though I doubt something these proceedings of the French yet I am sure the Seignior doth daily give out new Commissions for the levying of Souldiers in that number that now every one demands what strange enterprize this State hath in hand and all jump in this that it is against the Spanyard The Pope is still adverse to the Spanyard and inclines strongly to the good of Italy animating this State to meete the French with a declaration and the French to conclude a peace on any honorable terms with us that they may the more safely follow their present designs which is to suppresse the Spanyards in Italy his Catholick Majesty hath lost a great deale of credit in these parts by the losse of his Silver Fleete and that he is in extreme want of mony is collected here from the present state of some of his publick Ministers Ognat his ordinary Embassadour at Rome being lately recalled in stead of going home into Spaine hath retyred himselfe privately to Monte Pincio being in such premunire that he is not able to accommodate himselfe with necessaries for his journy And Mounterei who is to succeed him is arrived as far Sienna but being foundred in his purse is able to get no farther meane while living there in an Inne Moreover the Merchants in Rome are advised by their correspondents in Spaine to be wary in letting either of them have monies this is from a good hand in Rome Sir Kenelm Digby hath lately been at Delos where he hath laden great store of Marble he is said to be in very good plight and Condition I trouble you no more Venice 5.
