OF THE GOLDEN FLEECE THE FIRST PART The occasion of this Treatise called the Golden Fleece And the Reasons which moued the Author to intermingle merrie and light conceites among matters of Consequence IN the Moneth when the Celestiall Ram famous for the Grecians Golden Fleece had renewed the last Spring 1626. with an equall Proportion of Dayes and Nights the one presiguring Ioy for the Second Yeeres Raigne of
end of the Second Part. THE THIRD PART OF The Golden Fleece CHAP. I. Orpheus Iunior is required by Apollo to discouer where the Golden Fleece lies Orpheus performes his Maiesties commandement shewes that there be sundry kindes of the Golden Fleece all which after an allusion to the English natures hee reduceth into one maine Trade to the Plantation and Fishing in the Newfoundland The generall cause which moued Orpheus to regard this Golden Fleece APollo secretly informed by the Fraternity of the Rosie Crosse that Orpheus Iunior could well tell where the King of great Britaine might perpetually finde Trading both in time of Warres as Peace to inrich himselfe and his subiects which Trading they stiled the Golden Fleece more certaine then Iasons Fleece transported from Colchos or the Philosophers Stone so much dreamed on by the Chymists because the sheepe which yeelds this pretious Gaine were to be shorne for eight moneths space without intermission and of bodies farre bigger then the Peru sheepe which the Spaniards br●gge to equalize Asses for proportionable greatnesse In May last 1626. he commanded Orpheus Iunior as hee tendred his seruice and the good of his languishing Countrey to discouer where these Golden-coated sheepe pastured and the manner how the noble Britaines might attaine vnto them Orpheus Iunior answered that the Golden Fleece which the fraternity of the rosie Crosse insinuated to his Maiestie was parti-coloured like the Rainebow so produced by the Patriarch Iacobs Art according to the seuerall obiects represented and likewise diuided into the Naturall the Artificiall and the Mysticall sometimes singled out the one from the other sometimes mixt as politike Merchants and Diers know best yet all of them comprehended vnder one generall name viz. Trading That it was necessary for the Common-wealth of Great Britaine to pursue all the kindes of these obiects lest the English Nation who neuer likes any thing how profitable soeuer vnlesse it be diuersified Pragmata non Angli invariata probant might take surfet of one sort of Trading and at length fall to a loathing thereof Whereto he adioyned that by many yeares experience hee had learnt the skill of discerning spirits And that hee found out this quality of the English to delight in varieties of Newes though for the most part false of Apparell though they sold their lands for it of multiplicities of Law suits though oftentimes they knew themselues bought and sold by them which they most trusted of meate and drinke though they felt the euent in grieuous torments And as in their natures they respected choise and change so in their outward senses hee obserued first that their sight receiued more contentment in many colours then in one alone specially those colours of Gold and Siluer they preferred before the pure and simple which they held in contempt as fitter for Hob-lurkins then for generous spirits As for their smelling they approued of sundry sorts as Ciuet Amber-Greece Muske Storax and aboue all of Tobacco though some of them lost their wits and the vse of their senses in the taking of it and though most of them were ready to choake for good fellowship The like he said he could discourse of the rest of their senses outward and inward But these instances would suffice as he conceiued to open the way to many kindes of Trading as well to furnish that Nation with those seuerall Commodities though superfluous as to replenish the Kingdome with more supplies lest in prouiding themselues barely on their Countries charge with all those wares which their newfangled imagination prouoketh them to long for their Countrie might in a small while deuour her selfe or else eate vp her owne tayle like a Munkey Now to explaine what hee had spoken of the mysticall Golden Fleece hee onely at that time offered to declare the nature vse and place where it flourisheth as how he came to the knowledge of it if it pleased his Maiestie to affoord him audience Apollo bad him proceed signifying vnto him that the principall scope of the Meeting at that season was to haue that beneficiall Trade communicated to all his vertuous Attendants in Great Britaine Orpheus Iunior then went forward in this discourse About ten yeares past most mighty Prince musing with my selfe what might be the Psalmists meaning of those words Their sound is gone out into all Nations I happily coniectured at the last that the Word of God should not onely be spread abroad and planted by those which ought of zeale and charity to teach it but by those which like the frogs out of the Dragons mouth might publish it for temporall ends And when I had throughly lookt into these ends the one neglected by the Professors of the Gospell the other begun and continued with prosperous successe by the Spaniards in the West-Indies where within these 120. yeares many thousand Heathen people haue receiued the Christian Religion though not so purely as wee could wish I collected this memorable obseruation that our Sauiour makes vse of our worlaly desires to serue his diuine intentions In this fashion deales an Earthly Father with an vntoward Daughter for whose aduancement in mariage he giues a large portion to counteruaile her imperfections By which meditations of mine I perceiued that nothing but gaine could moue the carelesse minds of our Ilanders to seeke abroad for new habitations I lookt into the Plantations at the Summer Iles Virginia yea into Affrick as farre as the Cape of good hope where for the ease of our East-Indian Fleetes I conceiued at Sancta Helena or Soldana a fit Plantation might be erected But after that I had considered the many difficulties by reason of the tediousnesse of the voyage the charge and aboue all the malice of the Spaniards who being like to the Dogge in the Manger doe want people to plant and yet they will not permit others to plant I saw that God had reserued the Newfoundland for vs Britaines as the next land beyond Ireland and not aboue nine or tenne dayes saile from thence I saw that he had bestowed a large portion for this Countries mariage with our Kingdomes euen this great Fishing that by this meanes it might be frequented and inhabited the sooner by vs. And I verily thinke that his Heauenly prouidence ordained this Iland not without a Mystery for vs of Great Britaine that Ilanders should dwel in Ilands and that wee should ponder on this ensuing Morall Euen as our Sauiour Christ making Fishermen Fishers of men preferred Peter Andrew others his Apostles being plaine persons and simple before the great Lords of the earth as also the Lillies of the field before the Royalties of Salomon so in these latter daies his vnsearchable wisedome preferring necessary maintenance before needlesse superfluity hath allotted Newfoundland the grand Port of Fishing to the Professors of the Gospell And because the depraued nature of mankinde delighteth in appetite and some appearance of profit therefore his sacred Maiestie discouered that plentifull Fishing vnto

our Rising Sunne and the other Sorrow for our crying and presumptuous sinnes while I attended at Court to know his Royall Pleasure about our Fishing Fleets and Plātations of the Iland commonly called the Newfoundland in the latter whereof I haue for these ten yeeres together engaged both my selfe and a great part of my fortunes it was my good hap among other Noble Courtiers to become acquainted with Sir William Alexander Master of the Requests and Secretarie for Scotland After some formall Complements it pleased him and my ancient Friend Master William Elueston sometimes Secretary to the most Excellent Princesse Elizabeth and now Cupbearer to his Maiestie to appoint a Meeting at the Chamber of Sir William Alexander where all three of vs being met together this learned Knight with a ioyfull countenance and alacrity of mind taking me by the hand thus began I haue oftentimes wisht to conferre with you but vntill this present I could not find the opportunitie It is necessary and this necessitie iumps with the sympathy of our constellations for I thinke wee were borne both vnder the same Horoscope that wee aduise and deuise some Proiect for the proceedings and successefull managing of our Plantations As you obtayned a Patent of the Southermost part of Newfoundland and transplanted thither some of your countrimen of Wales baptizing the same by the name of Cambrioll so haue I got a Patent of the neighbouring Country vnto yours West ward beyond Cape Briton Christning it New Scotland You haue spent much and so haue I in aduancing these hopefull Aduentures But as yet neither of vs arriued at the Hauen of our expectations Onely like a wary Politician you suspend your breath for a time vntill you can repaire your losses sustained by some of Sir Walter Raleighs company in their returne from Guiana while your Neighbours the Right Honourable the Lord Viscount Falkland and my Lord Baltimore to whom you assigned the Northerly part of your Grant doe vndergoe the whole burthen supporting it with a brane resolution and a great deale of expence which otherwise you were obliged to performe The like inconueniences I haue felt euen in the insancie of my Attempt whether the defects proceeded through the late season of the yeare when wee set out the Colony or by the slownesse of our People who wearied in their passage at Sea by reason of contrarie winds rested themselues too long at Saint Iohns Harbour and at my Lord of Baltimores Plantation I know not but sure I am it cost me and my friends very deare and brought vs into much decrements and hath wel-nigh disheartned my poore countrymen if at my humble Suit our most Noble and Generous King Charles had not out of his Royall magnificence and respectiue care to vs and our Posterities restored and reuiued our courages by conferring such monies as might arise by the creation of Knight Baronets in Scotland towards the erecting of this new fabricke and heroicall Action And yet I feare all this will not suffice and defray the charge In such abundance doth my natiue Countrie of Scotland ouerswarme with people that if new habitations bee not suddenly prouided for them as Hiues for Bees they must either miscarie of want or turne Droanes vnprofitable to the Owner as you well remembred in your Poeticall workes which you termed Cambrensium Caroleia Si noua non apibus condas Rex aluea Fuci Ignani fient nec tibi lucra ferent Wee need not complaine with our Sauiour in the Gospell that the Haruest is great and the Labourers few for we haue many Labourers which would willingly manure this maiden Soile and with the painfull sweate of their browes reape what they sow But the charge of transporting them with such implements and domesticall cattell as must be had now at the first cannot but grow to an excessiue cost To expect more helpes then it pleased our most bountifull King already to bestow vpon vs will bee in vaine I doubt considering the scarcity of mony in these dayes which not only Scotland but likewise all his Maiesties Dominions doe affirme to be true The natiue and genuine salt of the earth which fructified our Corne fields with so many infinite ploughings of our Ancestors and ours is spent nor will Lime or Marle euer recouer them to the pristine and ancient vigour and fertilitie English Cloth which heretofore was dignified with the Title of the Golden Fleece growes out of request yea and with inward griefe I speake it in contempt also among the Owners and Inhabitants themselues Our Tinne Lead and Coale-mines begin to faile Our Woods which Nature produced and our Fathers left vs for firing for reparations of decayed Houses Ploughes and Shipping is lately wasted by the Couetousnesse of a few Ironmasters What then remaines in this famous Ile Except we relieue our wants by Nauigation and these must bee by Fishing by hooke or by crooke by Letters of Mart by way of reprizals or reuenge or else by Traffique and Commerce with other Nations besides Spaniards I would we could inuent and hit vpon some profitable meanes for the setling of these glorious workes whereto it seemes the diuine Prouidence hath elected vs as instruments vnder our Earthly Soueraigne Heere Sir William Alexander stopt To whom I returned this answere Much honoured Sir I grant the setting forwards of Plantations with all needfull appurtenances requires the purse of rich Spencer or of wealthy Sutton in regard of the many difficulties and disturbances which either Malice Enuie causelesse distruct casualties vnlookt for or the carelesnesse of vnexpert Agents may procure now at the beginning to blast our hopes in the blossome Neuerthelesse inuitâ Inuidiâ in despite of Enuie and of all malicious Angels which by their inuisible wheeling about the brains of Castawayes doe vse to seduce their phantasies to crosse the very best Designes whereof no man liuing hath more cause then my selfe to complaine wee ought to perseuere in constancie and to out-dare Fortune vnder the Almighties Banner What incumbrances did the Israelites feele before they conquered the Land of Canaan How many Persecutions did the Church endure before the true Christian Faith was planted None enters into Heauen without Crosses and fierie tryals composed of briers and brambles which the Romanes termed the vnluckie Woods Therefore let vs lay aside all scrupulous doubts Let vs cut our Coats according to the cloath taking care thriftily to husband the meanes allotted to our Plantations which we shall the more easily accomplish if we haue not passionate Superiours to controll vs nor Coadintors in counsell to condemne vs. Commonly where many Directors are the Directions prooue confused which is the cause that priuate houses be better built with lesser charge then publicke edifices of the like proportion Yea and we shall doe more in these places where we haue eleuated our cogitations and leuelled our ends for a thousand pounds then others haue in Virginia or the Summer Ilands for forty thousand so that wee
