sending his Wife to the House of the Lord of Woerden her Father with a command to give him an account of the whole Fact which she did accordingly adding That she hoped her Father would not be angry with her for the dishonour that had happened to his Family since it was acted forcibly and violently under the pretence of Kindness and Hospitality Gerard consulted with his Father-in-Law what should be done and how he were best to govern himself in this affair swearing and protesting upon his Honour that he would never suffer so horrid an abuse to pass unrevenged after which he never came to Court but studied continually how to execute his intended Vengeance The Lord of Woerden was likewise very sensibly touched for the dishonour of his Daughter and Family and from that time became a Mortal Enemy to Count Floris These two drew Gisbert of Amstel their Kinsman into a Conspiracy against the Earl and by the Advice of these two Lords Gerard secretly sent for the Bishop of Duras for the King of England the Earl of Cuyck in the Name of the Duke of Brabant and two Councellors for the Earl of Flanders who being met at Cambray Gerard declared the detestable Treachery of Floris with all the rage and aggravations that could be invented which so incensed them that after mature deliberation they concluded to attempt all means to seize upon the Earls Person and to send him to the King of England there to end his days in Prison and in the mean time to send for John of Holland Son-in-Law to Floris out of England where he then resided to come and take possession of the Earldoms of Holland and Zealand as Heir by Marrying his Daughter Elizabeth and now descended to him by the Civil Death of his Father which he had justly deserved for expiation of so foul and Villainous a Fact Count Floris wholly ignorant of this Conspiracy and Resolution went to Vtrecht to compose a difference between the Lord of Zulyn and some of his Councellors two of whom were the Lords Amstel and Woerden the Earl going to Church with his Guards and Houshold Servants a Woman delivered him a small Paper containing these Verses of the Psalm My dearest Friend whom I did trust With me did use Deceit And those who daily eat my Bread Did for my Soul lay wait My Lord said she consider well and remember this complaint of King David The Earl contemned this advertisement and went to Dine with the Noblemen and Prelates of Vtrecht where he was very merry after Dinner he laid himself down to sleep awhile designing the remainder of the day for Sport and Pleasure when the Lord of Amstel waking him invited him to ride abroad with his Hawks saying They had found a brave flight of Herns and other Wild Fowl The Count who much delighted in Hawking instantly mounted his Horse with a Hawk on his Fist and a very small Attendance When he had rid about half a mile from Vtrecht he was led into the midst of the Ambush of the Conspirators who issuing out upon him incompassed him on all sides Gerard Van Volsen who thought himself most wronged was the first that offered to lay hold on him but the Couragious Prince casting his Hawk from his Fist drew his Sword to defend himself choosing rather to dye than to be taken but being over-powred by number and unable to make any further resistance they seized him and designed to have conveyed him privately that Night to the Castle of Muyden and from thence to send him into England down the River of Flye The principal Conspirators was the Lords of Woerden Amstel Velson Beuschop Cragenhorst Thelingen Van Zanthen and divers others The News of the surprizal of the Prince soon alarm'd the whole Country so that the Kennemers Waterlanders and West Frizons instantly Armed themselves going aboard their Boats and Shallops to deliver their Lord the Conspirators having notice of their coming fled away carrying the Earl through Marshes and By-paths to prevent his being discovered but the people of Naerden who first went in search of them happened to meet them just in their passage who being much perplexed knew not which way to make their escape The Counts Horse to which he was bound being little and weak and unable to accompany them fell into a Ditch with him they laboured to get him out but not daring to stay because they found themselves closely pursued Gerard Van Velson full of Rage and Revenge fearing to lose the Prize seeing there was a necessity to abandon him the rest of his Companions being already fled he resolved not to part with him without satisfaction for his wrongs and therefore desperately fell upon his Natural Soveraign giving him one and twenty Wounds with his Sword most of which were Mortal and then mounting upon a swift Horse he made his escape to his Castle of Cronenburg The Kennemers arrive soon after and find the Earl almost Dead and Speechless in the Ditch being scarce able to draw his breath some of the Servants of the Murderers were taken and cut in pieces before the Earls face and having drawn him out of the Ditch they carried him to Mount Muyden where he in a short time expired after having Governed Holland Zealand and Friezland forty two years He was a Generous Prince of a comely Stature and Presence Courteous and Elegant in discourse a good Musician and very Charitable in short he had all that could be wish'd for in a Prince had not his Virtues been sullied with the Vice of Incontinency and this last Treacherous Adultery Count Floris had two Grey-hounds which always followed him when he went abroad these were found lying in the Ditch by him where he was Wounded and when his Body was put into a Boat to be conveyed to Alkmer they leaped into it and would neither eat nor drink though it was offered them and would certainly have starved themselves if they had not by force been drawn away from the Earls dead Body Thus have we seen Revenge acted to the height on one side let us now observe how it pursued the Actors of this Bloody Tragedy several of the Assistants to this Murder fled out of the Country the Lord of Woerden wandred about like a Vagabond and at length died miserably in a Forreign Land The Lord of Amstel who was a good Man but drawn in by the rest had all his Estate seized and fled into Germany The common people were so inraged at this horrid Fact that they vowed Revenge against the chief Actors and went to besiege the Castle of Cronenburg those within it continued quiet pretending that neither Gerard nor his Accomplices were there though indeed they were An account of this Murder was sent to all the Friends of Count Floris particularly to the Earl of Heynault and to Count John his Son who came before the Castle and planted their Engines of Battery against it The Earl of Cuick who was present at the consultation at
