cannot be comforted A few days before he took his leave of Haro he urges twenty times that he would but suffer these three words Besides his Charges and Governments to be inserted into the Articles already agreed upon and immediately there would be an end of so many miseries and the Sun-shine of Peace would break forth and shine every where Haro denies that this can be obtained of his Master and after that Lyonne was dismissed so great Secrets having been a long time supprest among us the Spaniards disguising the truth gave abroad that Mazarine both at Munster and Madrid always deluded the French Ministers and that he reserved himself the glory of the Peace is not to be questioned He who thinks otherwise is ignorant both of Mazarine and the French State and through envy suppresseth truth The Electors of Mentz and Cologne having met at Franckfurt to treat about the Election of the Emperour took hold upon that occasion and excited the Ambassadors of both Kings to revive the Treaty of Peace so far advanced Penneranda spum out ten months in expecting his Masters Instructions this space being expired he deluded the endeavours of the Electors by repeating the Propositions so often rejected and threatning If any Ambassadors were sent from the Electors to his Master he would do his endeavour to have them turned out of Madrid with disgrace and not so much as a Bark be allowed them to lodge in That in the first place without any Controversie what the French held by Conquest they should restore they must quit all Lorraine must abandon Braganza must restore Conde to his former Dignities till he was ascertained that the French had consented to these Conditions he would not so must as come to treat Whilst Penneranda talks at this rate without end we are come to the year 1659. in which at last the Peace was concluded About the end of the former year 1658. the King comes through Burgundy that was in some disorder to Lyons whither came also Christina the gallant off-spring of Henry IV. Dutchess of Savoy with her Daughter Margaret who was given out by report the Person that was to be espoused to the King Both of them were entertained so affectionately and so honourably as more cannot be imagined Hither too hastens at a great rate the Duke of Savoy a Prince of a comely Personage and in the flower of his Youth Vigorous Nature shewed the Stock from whence he sprung being so strong that he presently raised an admiration in the minds of all that saw him Now was the King supposed to court Margaret as his future Wife when all on the sudden Pememelli rides poste from Spain to Villâ—franca in such haste that he would not so much as to stay for a Pass After secret Conferences between Lyonne and Pementelli Pementelli introduced to Mazarine reveals the mind of his Master about the Peace as Lyonne had concluded it at Madrid and that about the Marriage of the Infanta of Spain with our King he might decently insinuate the matter he pretended that Lyonne had already intimated it to Duke Lewis de Haro although Lyonne had occasionally hinted the matter not by Instruction from the King but of his own head Mazarine being troubled for the Savoy Lady who having passed the craggy Alps and steep Ways in intolerable Weather would be thought to have been mocked resolves to reveal to her the whole Intrigue The Savoyard ill dissembling his resentment of the slur put upon his Sister flung away from Court rather then departed The Mother impatient stung with vexation presently after that her Son was gone very early in the morning went and lamented to Mazarine What shall I do deluded Woman Shall I go and sue after the Matches which I have already slighted having been inveigled with a pretended Marriage Mazarine pacifieth her with that smoothness of Language at which he was excellent That nothing should proceed but to the Common Good Matters were at that pass between the Kings of France and Spain that upon certain Judgment there was apparent hope of Peace and Alliance her Highness was of so noble a Spirit as to prefer the publick before her private advantage If the Spanish Proposition took not effect he would do his endeavour that she should never repent of her Journey and the trouble that she had undertaken which he promised to procure her under the Kings Hand Christiern whether she believed what he said or thought it to her credit to be deceived in a desperate case acquiesced to Mazarines Answer and went away with Margaret embracing instead of a King for her Husband his Note This was the precise sum of the Ticket In case the Spanish Match fall off that Margaret the Sister of the Duky of Savoy shall be the Wife of the King of France Lewis XIV The King postes away in all haste to Paris where Pementelli keeping close for some time with Lyonne debated upon the Articles of the Peace and Marriage He was frequently with Mazarine in the nights to whom when he would relax nothing in Condes case Pementelli accorded That Conde should be restored only to his Estate but forfeit his Governments and the place of Grand Maistre d'Hostel Farther that Mazarine and Lewis de Haro should meet at the Pyrenaeans and after that matters being composed between the Ministers that the two Kings should have an Enterview to confirm the Articles and solemnize the Marriage between the King of France and Maria Teresa the Infanta of Spain Pementelli ordered all this to be carried to Madrid by Courriers expecting from his Master the confirmation and ratifying of it after the usual manner Mazarine imparted this Secret to none but Lyonne which that he might keep from the eyes of the Common-people he gave out such pretences for a colour even to Strangers That the Journey of Pementelli was meerly casual as he passed from Piedmont to Flanders Happening to find the Court at Lyons that he thought it his Masters Interest if to prevent the Savoy Match he did court the French by the Marriage of the Infanta of Spain with the publick Peace That such a Match is to this end offered to put the Emperour into a scruple that wishes for it and to raise Jealousies in the minds of the Portugueze and English without whose knowledge these things were believed to be treated in France No Head was more fruitful of such Inventions than Mazarines In the month of June in the peaceful year 1659. Mazarine begun his blessed Journey with great Pomp not a few Lords of the Court bearing him company Between Blois and Amboise at Ecurie he luckily meets a Courrier of Pementelli returning from Madrid He brought with him a Ratification of the Articles in the Council of Spain extorted with difficulty and slowly because of the debarring Conde of his Dignities and Governments Mazarine paused and had almost gone back again being advised what Haro had promised Conde Pementelli earnestly desired him to hold on
