on a high hill neere unto the Towne first we passed over a bridge made of little rafts which standeth over the river Inn and so through Instadt and then ascended up the hill upon which the Monastery stands and then entered into the Chappell called our Ladies Chappell being built in the yeere 1636. where we saw a neat Altar and a picture of the Virgin Maries set up in the Altar and many fine reliques left there of those that are said to have been healed of severall diseases comming but thither to doe their Devotion and returned thence sound from hence we descended to another Chappell at the bottome of the hill passing downe 274. steps being set in order 10. and 11. together and as much plaine ground as containeth the steps thorow out the whole descent and in the middle of the descent is a Crucifix at which one daily sits to receive the almes of charitable people which Crucifix one rude person passing by strucke it and fell downe dead and never revived as these Capuchines related and then returned And opposite to the citie on the other side of the Danuby on a very high rocke is seated a strong Castle which cannot be scaled called Festingoverhouse commanding all the Townes and Monasteries at the foot of this is another strong built Fort by which the river Ilze falleth into the Danuby betweene the towne Ilze and this the citie is governed by Leopoldus the Emperours second sonne who is Bishop of it here we stayed three dayes and departed the fourth of Iune and entred into upper Austria passing by Schaumberg castle on the left side of the river and by Effertingen on the other side and Wilhering Monastery on the same side to Lintz where the Emperour was who sent to receive his Excellence at his landing the Count of Harrack Marshall of the Court with some other Courtiers after his gratulation with his Excellence there came ten or twelve coaches which waited on his Excellence to his lodging which the Emperour had provided and then returned Presently after came the Count Megaw high Steward to the Emperour to visit his Excellence and the next day Count Mansfelt Captaine of the Foot-Guard to visit his Excellence and after him Father Lemmarman his Majesties Confessour The sixth of Iune being the second day after wee came his Excellence had audience of the Emperour and Empresse who sent their coaches for us being come to his palace which is seated on a hill we went up foure ascents of staires the Guard standing on each side of us with halberds and carrabines in their hands passing thus thorow roomes untill wee came at the doore of the chamber in which the Emperour was and when his Excellence came at the doore out came the little Count of Kezell high Chamberlaine to his Majestie and brought in his Excellence and then withdrew and shut the doore after him that none might enter in after his Excellence had beene within a while we were all admitted and kissed his Majesties hand and then withdrew and passed thorow other roomes and a gallerie where the Guard stood in like manner to the Empresses chamber where none might enter neither stealing a sight of her as wee stood and then returned The eighth day his Excellence had his second audience of the Emperour as private as the first and the tenth day audience againe of the Empresse and then wee were admitted to kisse her hand the same day there were seven men beheaded which were Rebels for rising up in armes with foure hundred other Boores against the Emperour the first that was executed was said to be one that had inchanted himselfe that no bullet could hurt him and the onely seducer of the others after he was upon the scaffold and his face covered two men held him fast to the blocke then came the Executioner with a red hot paire of pincers and violently clapt hold of both his brests that done nailed his right hand fast to the blocke and chopt it off then presently whipt out his sword from his side and cut off his head one of the hangmen presently tooke it up and cryed at the eares of the head Iesus Iesus then the Iesuite which came a long with him admonishing of him desired everie one to joyne in prayers with him for him then came the other and a Boy which was beheaded likewise all making their private confessions to Priests at the foot of the scaffold having a Crucifix in their hand kissing their hands feet at the end of everie prayer After all those men were beheaded and quartered there went two of their confederates a foot to bee hanged about an English mile off to a place where a Priest of theirs hung upon a pole and his head on the top which was taken in a Church a yeere before called Ering which we afterward passed by The twelfth day being Sunday the Emperour Empresse and the Arch-Dutchesse dined at the Iesuites College but before they heard Masse in their Church and after dinner a play was presented to them by the house and some young schollers consisting of many varieties The fifteenth day his Excellencie dined at the Count Megaws and was nobly entertained the sixteenth day as we were at dinner there came a mightie clap of thunder and lightning which burnt downe three houses presently being not above an English mile off on the other side of the water and such accidents happen here often by reason all their houses be covered with thin boord in the manner of tile and about foure of the clocke in the after-noone his
