Sir Francis Bacon to the Lord Treasurer Burghley My Lord WIth as much confidence as mine own honest and faithful devotion unto your service and your honorable correspondence unto me and my poor estate can breed in a man do I commend my self unto your Lordship I wax now somewhat ancient one and thirty years is a great deal of sand in the hour-glass My health I thank God I find confirmed and I do not fear that action shall impair it because I account my ordinary course of study and meditation to be more painful then most parts of action are I ever bear a mind in some middle place that I could discharge to serve her Majesty not as a man born under Sol that loveth Honour nor under Jupiter that loveth business for the contemplative Planet carrieth me away wholly but as a man born under an excellent Sovereign that deserveth the dedication of all mens abilities Besides I do not find in my self so much self-love but that the greater parts of my thoughts are to deserve well if I were able of my friends and namely of your Lordship who being the Atlas of this Common-wealth the Honour of my House and the second founder of my poor estate I am tied by all duties both of a good Patriot and of an unworthy Kinsman and of an obliged servant to imploy whatsoever I am to do you service Again the meanness of my estate doth somewhat move me for though I cannot accuse my self that I am either prodigal or sloathful yet my health is not to spend nor my course to get Lastly I confess that I have as vast contemplative ends as I have moderate civil ends for I have taken all knowledge to be my providence and if I could purge it of two sorts of Rovers whereof the one with frivolous disputations confutations and verbosities the other with blind experiments and auricular traditions and impostures hath committed so many spoils I hope I should bring in industrious Observations grounded Conclusions and profitable Inventions and Discoveries the best state of that providence This whether it be curiosity or vain-glory or nature or if one take it favourably Philanthropia is so fixed in my mind as it cannot be removed And I do easily see that place of any reasonable countenance doth bring commandment of more wits then of a mans own which is the thing I greatly affect And for your Lordship perhaps you shall not find more strength and less encounter in any other And if your Lordship shall find now or at any time that I do seek or affect any place whereunto any that is nearer unto your Lordship shall be concurrent say then that I am a most dishonest man And if your Lordship will not carry me on I will not do as Anaxagoras did who reduced himself with contemplation unto voluntary poverty But this I will do I will sell the inheritance that I have and purchase some lease of quick revenue or some Office of gain that shall be executed by Deputy and so give over all care of service and become some sorry Book-maker or a true Pioneer in that Mine of Truth which he said lay so deep This which I have writ unto your Lordship is rather thoughts then words being set down without all Art disguising or reservation Wherein I have done honour both to your Lordships wisdom in judging that that will be best believed of your Lordship which is truest and to your Lordships good nature in retaining nothing from you And even so I wish your Lordship all happiness and to my self means and occasion to be added to my faithful desire to do you service From my Lodging at Grays-Inn Sir Francis Bacon to the Lord Treasurer Burghley My singular good Lord YOur Lordships comfortable Relation of her Majesties gracious opinion and meaning towards me though at that time your leisure gave me not leave to shew how I was affected therewith yet upon every representation thereof it entreth and striketh more deeply into me as both my Nature and Duty presseth me to return some speech of thankfulness It must be an exceeding comfort and encouragement to me setting forth and putting my self in way towards her Majesties service to encounter with an example so private and domestical of her Majesties gracious goodness and benignity being made good and verified in my father so far forth as it extendeth to his Posterity Accepting them as commended by his service during the Non-age as I may term it of their own deserts I for my part am very well content that I take least part either of his abilities of Mind or of his worldly advancement both which he held and received the one of the gift of God immediately the other of her Majesties Gift Yet in the loyal and earnest Affection which he bear to her Majesties service I trust my portion shall not be with the least nor in proportion with the youngest Birth For methinks his president should be a silent charge upon his blessing unto us all in our degrees to follow him afar off and to dedicate unto her Majesties service both the use and spending of our lives True it is that I must needs acknowledge my self prepared and furnished thereunto with nothing but with a multitude of lacks and imperfections but calling to mind how diversly and in what particular providence God hath declar'd himself to tender the state of her Majesties Affairs I conceive and gather hope that those whom he hath in a manner prest for her Majesties service by working and imprinting in them a single and zealous mind to bestow their duties therein he will see them accordingly appointed of sufficiency convenient for the Rank and standing where they shall be imployed so as under this her Majesties blessing I trust to receive a larger allowance of Gods Graces And as I may hope for this so I can assure and promise for my Endeavour that it shall not be in fault but what diligence can intitle me unto that I doubt not to recover And now seeing it hath pleased her Majesty to take knowledge of this my mind and to vouchsafe to appropriate me unto her service preventing any desert of mine with her Princely liberality first I humbly do beseech your Lordship to present to her Majesty my more than humble thanks for the same And withal having regard to mine own unworthiness to receive such favour and to the small possibility in me to satisfie and answer what her Majesty conceiveth I am moved to become a most humble suitor to her Majesty that this benefit also may be affixed unto the other which is That if there appear in me no such towardness of service as it may be her Majesty doth benignly value and assess me at by reason of my sundry wants and the disadvantage of my nature being unapt to lay forth the simple store of those inferiour gifts which God hath allotted unto me most to view yet that it would please her Excellent Majesty not to

that we could not long suffer such attempts unrevenged and being somewhat amazed with the charge he denyed the things very flatly and promised to write very earnestly therein to the King his Master And for conclusion we said that we would write unto you to move the King to make restitution and to prohibit the going to the Seas of any other but of those that were good Merchants in this time of peace according to the Treaty of which our negotiation you shall hear more shortly by Letters from the Council although I thought it good by this my private Letter somewhat to touch it unto you This speech with the Ambassador was on Saturday the fourth of this present and upon importunity of the Ambassador he had Audience of the Queens Majesty this day to whom he shewed a Letter from the King that Percivall coming over with Letters of late thither was stayed at Deip and the King hearing that he had Letters from the Queens Majesty ordered to dismiss him and willed the Ambassador to pray the Queen to think no offence in it for the said Percivall was to be Arrested in France for great debts which he ow'd there besides that as the Ambassador saith he is to be charged there with a murther After he shewed this Letter to her Majesty she called the Lord Chamberlain and me to her in his presence being no more of her Council then and in very round speeches told the Ambassador that she did not take the French Kings answer for the matter of Callis in good part and so much the worse because the Queen Mother by her Letters sent by Mr. Smith wrote that her Son had given very benign Audience and so reasonable an answer as ought well to content her Majesty In which manner of speech she saith she is not well used considering the answer was altogether unjust and unreasonable and if hereof the Ambassador shall make any sinister report you may as you see cause well maintain the Queens answer to be very reasonable as having cause to mislike the manner of writing of the Queen thereon which nevertheless you may impute to the unadvisedness of the Secretaries for so the Queens Majesty here did impute it Upon Sunday last I received Letters from Barnaby your Secretary who therein did very well advertise me of the staying of Percival at Deip and indeed I do finde that the cause hath grown from the Ambassador here either of displeasure or of suspition that he hath against the State Ro. Condulphe for whom he knew Percival was specially sent and finding this day the Ambassador very earnest in private speech with my Lord of Leicester and my self that Percivall would be Arrested in France after that he had delivered the Queens Letters I advised him to write to the contrary for otherwise he might provoke us to do the like with his Messengers and surely if I may be suffered so will I use them I have no more to write unto you But I can assure you that the Queen of Scots was married the 15. of this May and the Nobility therewith so offended as they remain with the Prince and keep apart from her what will follow I know not My Lady your Wife is safely arrived and was long with the Queen on Sunday I thank you for the little French Book which she brought me the like whereof I had before Yours assuredly W. Cecil May 27. 1567. To the right honorable Sir Henry Norris Knight the Queens Majesties Ambassador Resident in France SIR THe matters of Scotland grow so great as they draw us to be very careful thereof I think not but you do hear of them by the reports but briefly these they be The best part of the Nobility hath confederated themselves to follow by way of Justice the condemnation of Bothwell and his Complices for the murther of the King Bothwell defends himself by the Queens maintenance and the Hambletons so as he hath some party though it be not great The 15. of this moneth he brought the Queen into the field with her power which was so small as he escaped himself without fighting and left the Queen in the field and she yielding her self to the Lords flatly denyed to grant Justice against Bothwell so as they have restrained her in Lothleven untill they may come unto the end of their pursuit against Bothwell The French Ambassador and Villeroy who is there pretend to favour the Lords with very great offers and it may be they do as much on the other side At this time I send unto you certain Packets of Letters left here by Mr. Melvin who lately came hither from the Queen of Scots the sending of those to my Lord of Murray requireth great haste whereof you may not make the Scotish Ambassador privy but I think you may make Robert Steward privy with whom you may confer for the speedy sending away of the same letters His return into Scotland is much desired of them and for the Weal both of England and Scotland I wish he were here and for his manner of returning touching his safety I pray require Mr. Steward to have good care Our Wars in Ireland are come to a good pass for the Arch-Traytor Shane-Oneale is slain by certain Scots in Ireland of whom he sought aid one murtherer killed by many murtherers hereby the whole Realm I trust will become quiet I pray you of those things that our Ambassador in Spain by your letters may be advertised whereof I cannot at this time make anyspecial letter unto him for lack of leisure and so I pray advertise him from me I am pitifully overwhelmed with business Sir Nicholas Throckmorton is shortly to pass into Scotland to negotiate there for the pacification of those troubles Yours assuredly W. Cecil Richmond 26. June 1567. To the right honorable Sir Henry Norris Knight the Queens Majesties Ambassador Resident in France SIR THis your Lackquey brought me letters from you and also from your servant Mr. whom he left at Rye for such business asby his letter he hath certified me whereof I have informed the Queens Majesty wherein she also well alloweth of your circumspection and I wish all to succeed as you advise for otherwise the peril were great Sir Nicholas Throckmorton hath been somewhat long in going into Scotland and entred by Berwick on Munday last I think the two Factions of the Hambletons and the Lenox's shall better accord then your neighbors where you now live would if Bothwell might be apprehended I think the Queen there shall be at good liberty for the Nobility My Lord of Pembrooke perceiving likelihood of troubles there in that Country would gladly have his Son Mr. Edward Herbert to return home and so I pray with my hearty commendations to him declare my Lord his Fathers minde and if my Lord of Murray should lack credit for money my Lord Steward would have his Son give him such credit as he hath for my Lord alloweth well of his friendship I am
