THE NATIONALL SYNODE OF VITRY in Brittaine hauing deputed to his Maiesty the 20. of May 1617. these Reuerend gentlemen Piere Hesperien Pastour of the Church of Saint Foy in base Guienne Denis de Bouteroüe Pastor of the Church of Grenoble in Daulphinois Albert de Mars Esquire Lord of Balene and Ancient of the Church of Maringues in high Auergne and William Gerard Esquire Lord of Moussac Ancient of the Church of Moussac in base Languedoc the 27. of the said moneth when the Lord Hesperien spake to the King in this tenour following SIR Behold here prostrate at your feet in our persons all your subiects that professe the reformed Religion represented in the Nationall Synode by your permission summond and assembled and vnder your Royall authoritie in the towne of Vitry which hath deputed vs towards your Maiesty to testifie vnto you the extraordinarie passions of ioy which haue and doe possesse your said subiects as also the solemne and vnfained thankesgiuing which they haue and daily doe giue vnto Almighty God in that they now behold your present estate in perfect peace and repose your authority in full force and vigor and your Royall person in absolute liberty and all this by the no lesse noble then sage resolution which you vndertooke and executed for his iust punishment that disturbed your Realme suppressed your authority and yet which is worst exposed your person to most eminent perill and danger Something indeed very extraordinary concurred with this action but so as a diuine and miraculous hand was not also heerein wanting which as it were in a moment turned all the storme into a calme warre into peace feare into all security danger into deliuerance and an odious tyrannie into a most iust and lawfull gouernment For now as it were by a new inauguration of your Maiesty in the Crowne of France France her selfe now cleerly discernes that she hath a King and all the world no lesse apprehends that there is a King in France worthie to raigne and rule Now that your Royall selfe holds the raines of the State all your subiects are ready to yeeld you that most humble obedience submission which they owe but more particularly those of the reformed Religion who are very prompt and willing to offer vp for your seruice their goods their honours yea and their liues themselues And for this effect the Conuocation and assembly which deputed vs to your Maiesty was no sooner met and conuented but they solemnly swore and protested and in the name and behalfe of all the reformed Churches within your Realme enioyned vs representing their seuerall charges to protest and sweare in their names that we will neuer goe aside nor start from that most humble obedience and seruice which as your naturall subiects wee owe vnto you Wherunto we further finde our selues more straitly obliged by the many and great benefits that we receiued from the late deceased Henrie the Great of most glorious memory your renouned Father by others which it hath pleased your Maiesty to continue towards vs and by many more which wee daily attend and hope for from you And though wee firmely beleeue that the maintenance of your authority and dignitie is our best securitie and the establishment of your Crowne our peace and quiet yet we deeme our selues hereunto yet more neerly bound by the bond of our Religion and consciences which conformable to the holy Scriptures daily teach vs that wee must bee subiect to all superior powers and that the resisting of them is but an euident opposition to Gods will and ordinance who we know hath elected and seated you in your throne set the Crowne on your head put the Scepter into your hand and planted correspondent royall vertues and sufficiencies for discharge of the same in your noble heart So that vnder him we acknowledge no other Soueraigne but your Maiesty Our firme beleefe is that betweene God and the King there is no middle nor third person To call this receiued verity into any doubt or question among vs is taken for conuinced heresie and to make thereof so much as any problematicall argument is reputed an odious and capitall crime This lesson Sir we haue learned from our Predecessors which wee firmely beleeue and diuulge all ouer both with liuely voyce and in writing recommending the same likewise both by precept and example to all those that shall succeed vs. And therefore we doe promise so much againe vnto our humble selues in the behalfe of your Maiesty that being vndoubtedly confirmed and resolued of our fidelity your Maiesty will propagate towards vs the benefits of your former edicts your royall eares will bee alwaies open to heare our complaints and peazing equally the ballance you will be readie to doe vs iustice as we wil likewise be ready euery day to plant more deeply in your royall heart an immutable and constant beleefe that wee will euer bee ready to liue and die in the state of your most faithfull and obedient seruants and subiects Whereunto the King replied in these words I thanke you all continue you in my good and loyall seruice and be assured that I will be your good King and maintaine you in the priuiledges of my Edicts Then taking the letter which the Synode wrote to him he gaue it to Mounsieur de Pont Chartrain commanding him to reade the same and frame an answere THE LIFE CARRIAGE AND PROGRESSIONS OF THE vnworthie Marshall d' Ancre Gentlemen IT was a Lynceus but not the sonne of Aphareus one of a more cleere and penetrant sight which obserued euen in the depth of the Kings noble heart and in the secret thoughts of his faithfull subiects the sighes that they daily poured forth before his Diuine Maiesty to bee deliuered together with this whole poore Realme and Kingdome from the tyrannie and oppression whereinto they were reduced and brought by the deepe subtilty and insupportable pride of Cochino in whom questionlesse if Metempsycosis or Pythagoricall transmigration could take place the diuellish soule of Aman the sonne of Amadathi the Agagean resumed another bodie But to the end euery one may be aduertised of the true cause of these sighes you shall
