the King the noblest and mercifullest Prince that liues whom I wish long to reigne ouer you He hath made me Marchionesse of Pembrooke vouchsafed me to lodge in his owne bosome higher on earth hee could not raise me and hath done there●ore well to lift me vp to those blessed Innocents in Heauen Which hauing vttered with a smiling and cheerefull countenance as no way frighted with the Terrour of Death She gently submitted her selfe to her fate and kneeling down on both her knees with this short eiaculation in her mouth Lord Iesus Christ into thy hands I commend my Soule with the close of the last syllable the Hangman of Callis at one blow struck off her head Phoenix Iana iacet nato Phoenice dolendum Saecula Phoenices nulla tulisse duos The King loth to shew himselfe too sad a widdower for so good a wife the very next ensuing day was married to the Lady Iane Seymor daughter to Sir Iohn Seymor Knight Sister to Edward Seymor Earle of Hertford and Duke of Somerset Queene Anne was no sooner frowned on by the King but she was abandoned by her late friends and seruants the young Lady her Daughter lost a Mother before she could doe any more but smile vpon her She dyed the Phoenix of her Sexe but left a daughter behind who proued the Phoenix of her time the true Daughter of so rare a Mother Phoenix Queene Iane is now the sole obiect of all the Peoples ioy but within little more then the Reuolution of one yeare all their hopes are crossed death nip't the bud but preserued the blossome for a while after On the 12. day of October in the yeare 1537. the Queene was deliuered both of a Son her own life together at Hampton Court about two of the clocke in the afternoone It is said that newes being brought to the King in the time of her trauell that her throwes were very violent insomuch that her life was in great perill by reason of the extremities of her hard labour nay that the issue was driuen to so strait an exigent that either the mother or the infant must nccessarily perish hūbly desiring his Highnesse in so great extremity his answer was that the Mother then should die for certaine hee was that hee could haue more wiues but vncertaine whether to ●aue more children heerevpon preparation was made to saue both if possible but her body was ripped vp to giue way to her Child in the conclusion and two dayes after her deliuery her Soule expired The Queene dyed much pittyed and the young Prince called Edward was the eighteenth of the same moneth created Prince of Wales Duke of Cornewall and Chester The Father was so ioyfull of his Sonne that hee seemed to cast a neglect vpon his two daughters yet of them both the Lady Elizabeth was in most fauor and grace for when Mary was separated from the Court and not so much as suffered to come within a certain distance there of limited the Lady Elizabeth was then admitted to keepe the young Prince company in his infancy who in the time of his minority was committed to the tuition of Doctor Coxe and Sir Iohn Cheeke as they were guardians and Schoole-masters to the Prince so were they the dayly Instructors of the sweet young Lady Shee was 3. yeares elder then her Brother and therefore able in her pretty language to teach and direct him euen frō the first of his speech and vnderstanding in the principles of Religion and other Documents the Arch-bishop Cranmer her God-father was euer chary and tender ouer her as one that at the Font had tooke charge vpon him to see her educated in all vertue piety Cordiall intire grew the affection betwixt this brother and Sister insomuch that he no sooner began to know her but hee seemed to acknowledge her and she being of more maturity as deeply loued him Both comming out of one loynes their affection was no lesse then if they had issued likewise from one wombe they were indeede one way equally fortunate and vnfortunate hauing one Father and either of them depriued of a Mother and euen in their seuerall deaths there was a kind of correspondencie the one dyed by the sword the other in Child-bed both of them violent and enforced deaths So pregnant and ingenious were either that they desired to looke vpon bookes as soone as the day began to breake their horae matutinae were so welcome that they seemed to preuent the nights sleeping for the entertainment of the morrows schooling besides such were the hopefull inclinations of this Princely youth and pious Virgin that their first houres were spent in Prayers other Religious exercises as either reading some History or other in the Old Testament or else attending the exposition of some Text or other in the New the rest of the sore-noone Breakfast-time excepted they were doctrinated and instructed either in language or some of the liberal Sciences one morrall learning or other collected out

TO THE RIGHT HONOVRABLE the Lord HENRY Earle of Douer Viscount ROCHFORD L. Hunsdon c. Right Honourable WHen I had finished this short Tractate which may bee rather styl'd a superficiall remembrance then an essentiall expression of the of the passages of Queene Elizabeth's Life in her minoritie I could not apprehend vnto whom the Patronage thereof might more iustly belong then to your Honour whose noble Grandfather Henry Lord Hunsdon after Lord Chamberlaine to her Maiestie her neere and deare Kinsman was the most constant Friend and faithfull Assistant in all her troubles and dangers who not onely imploy'd his whole industry and made vse of his best Friends but liberally expended his means hazarded his owne person as an Interposer betwixt her safety and the malice of her potent aduersaries which makes me somthing to wōder that so great and remarkeable a zeale exprest in a time of such ineuitable danger when all Her friends were held the Queene her Sisters enemies and her enemies the Queenes friends when nothing but Examinations sentences of Imprisonment and terrours of Death were thundred against her that her I say whom neither promises of fauor could disswade from her Loue nor threatnings of death deterre from her Seruice should not bee so much as once remembred by the Collectors of Her History Be this therefore Right Honourable a lasting Testimony of his unchanged affection to her and her Innocence from the beginning as likewise a long-liu'd Monument of her Royall gratitude towards him extended euen vnto his end ●nd to his noble Issue after him what great confidence shee had in his loyalty appeared at the Campe of Tilbury in the yeare 1588. where hee solely cōmanded the Guard for her Maiesties owne Person which consisted of Lances Light-Horse and Foote to the number of 34050 It hath pleased your Lordship to censure fauourably of some of my weak Labours not long since presented before you which the rather encouraged mee to make a free tender of this small peece of service In which if my boldnesse should beget the least distast from you I must flye for refuge to that of the Poet Claudian Leones Quae str auisse valent ea mox prostrata relinquunt Thus wishing to you and to all your Noble Family not onely the long fruition of the blessings of this life present but the eternall possession of the loyes future I remaine your Lordships In all obseruances THO HEYVVOOD TO THE GENEROVS READER WEre I able to write this little Historicall Tractate with the Pen of Tacitus the Inke of Curtius and set downe euery line and letter by Epictetus his Candle yet can I see no possibilitie to auoyd the Criticks of this age who with their friuolous cauils and vnnecessary exceptions ambush the commendable labours of others when they themselues will not or dare not either through idlenesse or ignorance aduenture the expence of one serious hower in any laborious worke intended for the benefit of either Church or Common-weale and such Polupragmatists this age is full of Sed meliora spero I doubt not but that they will spare this Argument for the worth thereof and though their carping may correct my Poeme yet they will haue a reuerend respect of the Person here drawne out whose neuer-dying fame euen in this our age is so sacred amongst all good men that it is scarce remembred at the least vttered without a deuout thanks-giuing The prosperous and successfull Reigne of this Royall Queene and Virgin hath been largely deliuered in the Latine Tongue whereby all forraigne Nations haue beene made partakers of her admirable vertues and religious Gouernment but for that part of her Life during her tender and sappy Age all our domesticke remembrancers haue beene ●paring to speake As they haue shewed you a Queene I expose to your view a Princesse they in her Ma●estie I in her Minority they the passages of her incomparable Life from the Scepter to the Sepulchre as shee was a Soueraigne I the processe of her time from the Cradle to the Crowne as she was a sad and sorrowfull Subiect in the discouery whereof I haue not fallen so pat as to make the relation of her Minority the whole scope of my intentions but haue for the better enlightening thereof made vse of all such eminent occurrences of State as may aptly introduce thereunto as for those passages in the Characterizing of King Edward the sixth and the Lady Iane Gray and others Vix ea nostra voco I haue borrowed them from my good friend Mr. H.

R. HEN. 8. Anno 1501. ENGLANDS ELIZABETH Her LIFE and TROVBLES T●e better to il●ustrate this history needfull it is that wee speak somthing of the Mother before we proceed to the Daughter A match was concluded betwixt Prince Arthur the eldest Sonne and Heyre apparant to Henry the 7th King of England and the Infant Katharine daughtter to the King of Spaine shee landed at Plymouth Anno 1501. and was married to Prince Arthur in Aprill next following hee expired at Ludlow in that Castle which hath beene an ancient Seate belonging to the Princes of Wales Death hauing thus made a Diuorce betwixt these two Princes The two mighty and Potent Kings by their graue and politick gouernments knowne to bee as eminent in wisdome as greatnesse for the more assured continuance of league and amity betwixt them treated of a second match betwixt Henry the second sonne but then the Sole Heyre and hope of England the late Dowager Princesse of Spaine The contract by a dispensation solicited after granted by the pope then raigning was accordingly performed The marriage countenanced by their knowne wisdomes on the one side and authorized by his Ecclesiasticall Iurisdiction on the other side was held not onely tolerable but irreuocable Notwithstanding the Father dying and the Soueraigne Sonne inaugurated by the name of Henry the eight for many yeeres together enioyning a peaceable quiet raigne whether distasting his Queene by reason that by this time she was growne somewhat in yeeres or that hee had cast an affectionate eye vpon a more choice
