and the good and happinesse of the whole Kingdome of France which hope we conceiued by the answer deliuered vnto vs by our said Cousin the Marshall Destree who brought vs word that shee would neuer depart out of Campagnie to goe into any other place without our knowledge and consent But all this proued but a shadow for in lieu of performance we vnderstood that shee was departed out of Campagnie the 19. of the last Moneth in a Caroch of the Lady du Fresney accompanied with the said Lady onely and one of her Chamber-maidens and so passed along to Chosy and Bleren Court and there arriued at the Village of Rosny where she found the Caroch of the Baron of Creuecoeur Gouernour of Auennes a Towne in the obedience of the King of Spaine which Gouernour had expected her himselfe 15. dayes in the Towne of Sein where being arriued a Gentleman of the Marquisse de Vardes told her that the Lord Vardes the father was arriued at Capelle and had banished thence his sonne and his wife and hereupon shee went to Auennes where shee was receiued and a while after visited in the behalfe of the Infant by the Prince d'Espinoy Gouernour of Enhault as since that time wee haue learned by the enquirie which wee haue caused to bee made concerning her departure out of our Kingdome by one of our Masters of Requests at the very same time when shee departed from Champagnie And since that to follow the same course which our said Brother had taken shee sent a request to our said Court of Parliament of Paris full of forged and calumnious accusations against our said Cousin the Cardinall of Richelien very like vnto the same which our Brother would haue laid vpon him Shee was no sooner arriued at the said place of Auenues but she did presently write letters vnto vs full of inuented pretences to colour her departure and the like complaints against our said Cousin the Cardinall which haue no ground at all nor foundation but onely slanders and inuentions which doubtlesse haue beene suggested vnto her by the Authors of those same which our Brother wrote vnto vs which is euident enough especially since both the one and other doe tend to the subuersion of our Authority and of our Kingdome and State and wee know that her departure hath beene plotted by those Agents which they haue at Bruxels to cause her to retire as shee hath done into a Countrey vnder the command of the King of Spaine But shee not resting contented with the first slanders and calumnies which shee wrote vnto vs abusing our goodnesse and lenity and the mildnesse which hitherto we haue vsed towards them that haue beene the bringers of the same shee hath begun to write others and new slanders to our said Court of Parliament and to the Prouost of the Merchants of our good Citie of Paris striuing to incense them against vs and to giue bad examples to others Now therefore desiring to preuent all those euils which may ensue and accrew by the departure of the said Lady our Mother and our said Brother in this estate and to hinder them that they continue and encrease not through the credit which some of our Subjects might afford vnto their complaints and inuentions written and manifested to be full of impostures which they publish against vs our Gouernment and our principall Ministers of State and to the end that none of our said Subjects be not so rash and ill aduised as to adhere vnto them and participate of their euill counsels to adjoyne vnto them or haue any priuate intelligence with them or those that follow them Wee doe make knowne by this present that with the ad●… of the Princes Dukes Peeres Officers of our Crowne and 〈◊〉 great and eminent personages of our Counsell which are ●…re about vs Wee confirming our precedent declarations of 30. of March and 5. of Iune last haue pronounced and declared and doe pronounce and declare by this present signed with our owne hand guilty of Crimenlaesae Majestatis and disturbers of our common peace and rest all those that shall bee found to haue participated to such pernicious and damnable Counsels or haue withdrawne our said Mother and our onely Brother the Duke of Orleans from our obedience and haue inticed or instigated them to depart out of our Kingdome As also all those that shall haue followed them and departed with them of whatsoeuer ranke or condition they be with all those that shall assist them or haue leuied or raised any souldiers against our seruice and made any deuices or practices prejudiciall to our authority as well without as within the Kingdome Wee will therefore that there be proceeded against them as against those that are guilty of Crimenlaesae Majestatis and disturbers of our common peace according to the rigour of our Lawes with all the diligence that may bee both of our Proctors Generall as also their Substitutes and Deputies And hereby wee prohibite and vtterly forbid all our Subjects of whatsoeuer quality or condition they be from hauing any intelligence or correspondencie with our said Mother and our said Brother and with their domesticke seruants and those that are partakers of their Counsels vnder whatsoeuer pretences it may be And wee wish that all their Lordships and whatsoeuer honourable priuiledges they enjoy mouing vnder our Crowne be seised vpon and afterward re-united to our owne reuenues that they be depriued of all dignities places or offices whatsoeuer they enjoy And that all their other goods as well moueables as immoueables be seised and praysed afterward to be by vs taken from them and confiscated And further we will that all those that leuie any souldiers or maintaine any forces without our Commission be earnestly pursued and dealt with all according to the rigour of our Lawes and Ordinances ●…ed because it is a very difficult matter to hinder and preue●… di●… said Mother and Brother and such as follow them and adhere 〈◊〉 them from sending and writing to those to whom they thinke good and because it were vnreasonable and ill-beseeming that those to whom they send or write vnto should incurre the penalties here prescribed Wee will and ordaine that those to whom these Letters shall be addressed shall be bound as soone as euer they shall haue receiued the same or as soone as any one shall come vnto them in their behalfe to declare it and carrie those letters to the chiefe Iudge Royall in that Prouince in which they dwell and cause these if they can to be staid and arrested which shall bring these letters to them or be trusted with any message to them which Iudge shall be bound instantly to send the said letters to the Secretary of State who hath the deportment of that Prouince And if this happen in our Court they shall addresse themselues to our beloued and trusty Keeper of the Seale And if it happen in our Citie of Paris they shall be bound to acquaint the Lieutenant of the Citie and hee shall be bound to acquaint vs as soone as possible may be and all this vnder the same penaltie To this end we will and command all our beloued and faithfull Counsellors and those of our Court of Parliaments to cause this to be read published and registred and the contents of the same to bee executed in euery particular according to their forme and tenour As also our Proctors Generall to make all diligent and earnest enquirie and necessary pursuit for the punishment of the delinquents And farther we charge and command all Gouernours Lieutenants Generall of Prouinces Gouernours and Captaines of our townes and places to fall vpon all disobedient and rebels and to suppresse them as farre as in them lyes with their forces which they command for our seruice as also in time of neede to assemble forces to that end and purpose And all Iudges to execute iudgement against the offendor And the Prouosts of

SEVERALL LETTERS BETWIXT THE FRENCH KING AND THE Q. MOTHER Concerning the present Troubles there Vnto which is added The French Kings Declaration vpon the departure of the Queene Mother and Monsieur his Brother out of the Kingdome The Confirmation of the Court Parliament of Paris vpon the same Faithfully translated out of the French LONDON Printed for NATH BVTTER and NICH BOVRNE 1631. A LETTER OF THE FRENCH KING TO THE QVEENE MOTHER Madame I Cannot sufficiently testifie my griefe for having understood by your Letters and by the report of my Cousin the Marshall of Schomberg and of the Lord of Roijssy the refusall which you have made of all the conditions I have offred you for the change of your abode at Campeigne into some more convenient place for your selfe and lesse suspected for me Were it not a thing altogether necessary for the welfare of my affaires I would not have caused you so much to have beene pressed thereabout And because I have reserved to my selfe to give you shortly to understand the last resolution which I have taken upon so important a businesse I will say no more thereof to you at this present but will answere onely to that which you have written in your last concerning my said Cousin the Marshall of Schomberg and the said Lord of Roijssy It had beene very difficult for mee to have sent you persons of more approved honesty and the report which they made me of your intention at their returne from you is so agreeable to the sense of these Letters you writ unto me by my sayd Cousin the Marshall of Schomberg and the Lord of Roijssy as you have no occasion thereupon to complaine but I rather because my instant and reiterated prayers have had so little power to worke upon you God will inspire into me if it be his pleasure what I ought to doe for the good and quiet of my estate After the which I shall alwayes have the same consideration of you which you can expect Madame from Your most humble and obeisant Sonne LOVIS From Fontainebelleau 28. May 1631. Answer of the Queene Mother to the Kings Letter above-written Monsieur my Sonne I Had deferred to have written you an answere to your Letter the 28. of this Moneth had not mine enemies spred a rumour to my preiudice that I was escaped into Flanders This shall assure you that I am yet here resolved not to depart hence unlesse it bee by force if this be not to vpbraid you with with the respect which a good Mother such as I am to you ought to be in with her Sonne for I never had nor shall have the desire to retire my selfe into any place where you have not absolute-power having God be thanked no crime vpon my Conscience which should give mee occasion to withdraw my selfe thence nor which ought to hinder me from hoping that your goodnesse weary of seeing me thus to suffer will oblige you in the end to restore me to the calme which is due to mine innocency most humbly beseeching you to vouchsafe that for answere to your last vpon this occasion I may tell you that if I had no other consideration of remaining here but mine owne I would long since have rendred you that obedience which you require at my hands of departing hence But if you please to consider what those displeasures are of a Mother so afflicted as I am without having committed any fault against You or your estate you may easily Iudge how unseemely it would be both to you and me that me continuall teares and my extreame affliction should be exposed to the eyes of your Subiects in so long a Iourney I should have to make vnto any one of those places which you have caus'd to be propounded vnto me and that the triumph of mine enemies should be adorned with this spectacle which would be most proper to illustrate their power all the world over and the miserable estate whereto I am reduced If the counsels which are given you vpon this subiect came not from the same persons which have perswaded you to confine me to this place and who doth not thinke knowing me so well as they doe to be subiect to stoppings of breath whensoever I am sicke that I can live 3. dayes to an end You might well know that it is farre more important for your state that the ill vsage which I suffer without cause be concealed heere within foure walles then made knowne to every one in my passage nor would you be so earnest after it in your said Letter nor so much complaine of my refusall of doing it I know well what duty I owe vnto you as you are my King but you also as my Sonne ought to compassionate mine afflictions and not to alledge vnto mee alwayes as you doe the considerations of your estate seeing there is no man that knowes not right well that mine abode here can bring no preiudice therunto that this is none other pretext or artifice then that which was vsed by others heretofore during our former separation for which you were so sorie so soone as you were come home to your selfe after the death of the Constable LVYNES and which is now put in practise to torment me to the end that loosing as I doe my repose my health may be so impaired as I must sinke vnder the burthen and loose my life which they cannot any longer indure As touching the Conditions which have beene offred me I doubt not but they have told you and would make it publikely to be beleeved that they are very advantageous vnto me But if they would describe them as they ought there would be no such Iudgement made seeing that MOVLINS and ANGER 's which have beene propounded vnto me for mine abode are so infected with the Plague as without doubt they have bin chosen by them of purpose to thrust me into the iawes of death which they see doth not seize vpon me heere so soone as they could wish Your disposition is too good to consent to their wicked designes in case you know them but vnder pretext of the duty which you owe to your estate is hidden the poyson which they would have me swallow to ridde their hands of me contrary to your intention God will deliver you from that and your Mother also if he please and will touch your heart to make you know that next your owne selfe I am the person most interested in your preservation and that for this purpose my life imports you more than my selfe There is no honest man in your Kingdome that doth not thinke so For the honesty of my Consin the Marshall de Schomberg mentioned in your Letters I leave the iudgement thereof to God and doe beseech his divine Maiesty to grant both him and me the grace that his counsels may be such as hee is bound in Conscience to give you and that hee will inspire also into you that which you ought to doe for the good

and repose of your estate assuring my selfe if you follow those divine inspirations in stead of the passionate counsels against me which you have taken ere-while your estate shall therein finde quiet and safety and I the comfort which is so necessary for mee and those effects of love which I ought to expect from you Monsieur my Sonne Your most humble and most affectionate Mother and subject MARIE From Campeigne this last of May 1631. The Copie of a Letter written from PARIS the 7. of August 1631. VPon Monday last the Queene Mother sent hither the Lord De Beno'ville with letters to the Parliament and to the Sheriffes of this City And hee delivered both the one and the other in open and full Assembly and afterward departed againe without contradiction These letters were presently sent to the Kings Majesty without being opened It is confidently reported that the said Letters are manifestly replenished with very unseemely and strange threatnings Thereupon and upon the arrivall of an Ambassador from Bruxels the Kings Majesty having changed his purpose concerning his devotion of our Lady of Liesse is now expected heere in very few dayes to enter into the said Parliament there to open his Declarations against the said Queene and Monsieur It is confidently held that hee will restore the Paulette to the Officers of the Court according to the ancient forme and custome The farther wee doe proceed the more the divisions of this Court doe increase and waxe worse The jealousies which have heere beene conceived concerning the same have cause order to be given for the augmentation and reinforming of the old Regiments and Commissions to be granted for 10000. Foot forces more and 20. Cornet of Horse The Kings Majesty hath given Charge and Commandment to Monsieur de Guyse De Gramont to the Earle of Rochefoucault and to Monsieur de Valencay with all speed and diligence to be present with his Majesty The last of these as wee are informed hath given a flat denyall that hee will not depart out of Calais And if Monsieur bee sure enough without as wee are certified that he shall be it is very credible that the rest will bee no lesse refractory but draw backe as well as he Monsieur the Kings brother hath put away and discharged one of his Secretaries and three of his other Officers who were by the Lord Coigneux suspected of Treason He is yet at Beyancon Wee have received Letters from Bruxels that Forstenbergh and Altringer are about to joyne their Forces vnto those Troupes of the Administrator of Wirtenbergh who so miserably is fallen away from the Conclusion made at the Dyet at Leypsich Since wee have beene informed of this Designe concerning the forenamed Conjunction word was sent to Monsieur de la Force to put the Army of Champeigne into the Field but hee answereth that as yet it is not expedient Monsieur de Loraine hath sent hither the Lord de Ville to make knowne to his Majesty that Loraine is at his Devotion and that if the Gates of Nancy are not large and great enough the very walles shall bee broken downe to give entrance to and to receive his Majesty But all their kind of submissions will not purge and cleere his Highnesse Who is like enough to receive the first stroake of the forces of this estate If so bee that the said Lord doe but enterprize any thing and especially if hee doe give entertainement into his company to the Prince of Phalsbourgh who as it is reported for a certaine is one of his parties The forenamed Ambassador of Bruxels comes to make excuse to his Majesty in that the Infanta being taken on a suddaine could not afford that due honour and respect to the Queene Mother which otherwise she would have done Those of Straesburgh much sorrowing at the miserable and unfaithfull falling of the Duke of Wirtenbergh doe now earnestly implore the succour and aid of our King by the Lord Clafer His Maiesty hath given him all assurance that hee will in no wise forsake them God grant that he may returne home better contented than the Ambassador of S●yeden Who much grieved that he could not receive grant of 4000. men which he required will within few dayes returne home very ill satisfied Neverthelesse he hath received the gift of a Chaine of Diamonds worth the value of five thousand Crownes The Lord Larson Treasurer of the said King of Sweden received a Chaine of two thousand Florens and the secretary of the said Embassador had one given him of one thousand The Lord De Villars hath sould the Government of Honfleur to the Marquis De Sourdis from whom it is like to be taken away He was lately brought in question and accused before the King that his Company of the Guard was not compleat and that he pursed up the Monies of those that were more to pay Whereupon and by reason of some Insolent words which he gave in the presence of his Maiesty his Maiesty plucked from his neck his Corslet and degraded him and disarmed him most shamefully in open Company A Letter written by the Queene Mother to the Kings Maiesty with the Answere of his Maiesty to the same The Letter of the Queene Mother to the King Sir My Sonne I Have thought it my duty diligently to acquaint you by my Lord De la Barre that I am departed from Campaigne as also to declare unto you the reasons and Motives inciting me thereunto which your Maiesty shall find in this Letter If I should alledge no more but the hardnesse and harshnesse of my imprisonment the continuall disquiets and persecutions which I suffered by the Cardinall Richelieu I thinke they might easily be of power to give abundant satisfaction to your good disposition for I know that your inclination is such that you would not have me obey him to the very preiudice of my life And to the preiudice of your pious affection to your Mother which can no longer be preserved nor consist with my obedience to him in this place especially when all those evills and wrong inflicted vpon me are pretended to be done in your name I have hitherto without expresse of my griefe and relating of my teares suffered that which were impossible for a womā of a far baser ranck and degree to suffer with any kind of patience I have beene held from the first beginning as guilty because I would not obey the Cardinals pleasure for this the most veritable letter beares it being the first declaration addressed from Champaigne to the Parliaments and Provinces Since that I have beene used and dealt withall as if I were the greatest Enemy of the whole Kingdome of France not onely in the deniall of my honest and iust requests but even in the misconstruing of my good meaning and intentions And in shutting up in prison my officers and servants as well as my owne person Insomuch that they might not budge out of the City without his warrant that kept and
