Order and in your Coffers Treasure sufficient to support this Estate which principally subsisteth vppon the support of these two Pillers This is it wherein I will most quietly entertaine my idle cogitations and comforte my selfe ouer the losse of my good King without being constrained if it may so please you to accept or reserue any other recompence for my Offices then my contentment to receiue none and the honour of your expresse Commandements But if neuerthelesse for a finall Resolution and that I may not shew my selfe disobedient to your willes your Maiestie doe absolutely enioyne me to the contrarie This then MADAME is the greatest fauour and that which I most desire wherewith I doe most humbly beseech you to recompence me that it may please your Maiestie MADAME immediately to command my greatest enemies to goe into the Chamber of Accounts there to verifie take view of the profites or detriments of my 12. yeares watchings Then if it be not foūd that during the saide time vnder the power and aucthoritie of my great King I haue by my dexterity and by my trauails rooted out the greatest confusion that euer was in the Treasuries of France that beside the sparing of eight Milliōs euery yéere whereof hée yerely became indebted to his Officers besides the payment of all charges and of all the ordinarie Expences of the Estate of all the wages of the soueraigne Courts of all the wages of the men of Warre of all the Garrisons Embassages the Kings house the Voyages Marriag●● giuing of Rewards Recompences with a thousand other expences too tedious to be here set downe besides also the Guardes ordinary summes without augmenting either Taxes or Impositions in the Realme Yea contrariwise If they finde not that I haue yet for the entertainment of three great Armies whereof the one recouered Amiens an other reduced Bretaigne and the third conquered Bresse and Sauoye found meanes extraordinarily to furnish aboue twelue Millions for the discharge of the debts of France growen by Treaties aboue fiue and twenty Millions for the payment of those of Switzerland Germanie Italie and England aboue thirtie Millions For the payment of Pensions both within and without the Realme aboue foure and twentie Millions For the succour of forraigne Prouinces aboue eight Millions For the refurnishment of the Artilleries Fortifications High-wayes and Buildings aboue eight Millions For the reliefe of the poore aboue sixe Millions To lay vp in the Treasurie in the Coffers of the Bastille or to leaue in Deposito in the hands of the Treasurer of the Espa●●ne aboue seuētéene Millions To satisfie many other Expences which may easily be verified aboue twenty Millions If I haue not also besides procured Contracts for the redéeming of the Demaynes of France that were engaged wherof the greatest part is daylie put in Execution Such Redemptions amounting to aboue fortie Millions Finally MADAME If I haue not in my great care by my onely Vigilancie put in practise these sparings If also to continue the same duty to Frāce I haue not at all times offred to your Maiestie to loose my life or to support the affaires that in the same eminencie yea euen to present them in a higher degrée If I say I haue not preferred all these things and more then doe I submit my selfe MADAME to any punishment for my presumtion to receiue such odious recompence that you shall appoint me as the price of my honors of my offices But if also MADAME there be not any one of these Articles found false vnlesse it be that they speake too little that my former affection hath receiued no other alteration but to be growne more ardent and strong suffer me MADAME for my more worthy satisfaction to endure the harme that you doe me without accepting the good that you offer me Reuoke and call in my offices without this gratious charge Or if necessarily MADAME you will vouchsafe yet to honor me with some fauour Let it be onely if it may so please you a perpetuall remembrance of my fidelitie A fauour which I desire of your Maiestie not that hereafter I might be recalled to the painefull trauell of the affaires but onely to leaue me in rest that I may still liue in the remembrance of her who is this day the Regent of my country the liuing soule of my maister and the mother of my King And surely MADAME it is also an honor and last acknowledgement which you Madame cannot iustly denie me for sith all they whom in my offices I may haue offended doe labour to see me depriued much more may they remember my seruices that doe triumph in them Farewell house farewell fortresse which I haue had in kéeping and gouernment aboue twelue yeares Farewell Temple of the Goddesse Mon●ta Mony who haue procured me so great enuie Let me now goe now that I am wearie of these affaires Returne me to a priuate life wherein I may no more haue such cares I am he who strong in spirit and courage hauing comprehended the very ground of the riches of the King and Kingdome haue gouerned them I am he vnto whom the felicitie of this estate augmented in new reuenewes and the coffers of our yong maisters replenished by iust and lawfull meanes stand bound for that plaine and assured order that I haue established I haue reaped great honors and large recompēce for that industrious care that I tooke vnder a great king I was of great power had great authoritie but euen in the turning of a hād in his bloody fall I haue séene all fallen and ruined In the same mishap haue I séene extinct all that enuie that made diuers many times to threaten my vndoing and vtter ruine whiles I procured the good of the estate and that I sought nothing but to purchase onely my maisters fauours without any regard of the great ones and neuer knowing what it was to séeke the fauour and good will of the people euermore bending my selfe wholy to this purpose But now in the end depart from me all troublesome carking care I am now resolued to mew vp my ship in a calme and safe hauen peraduenture the state hauing lost me shall better acknowledge wherein I haue bene profitable vnto it and the people shall finde it albeit ouerlate when fauour and affection shall succéed hatred but I doe not so highly estéeme my owne grace and good as that I should desire to obtaine it by the disasters and calamities of my countrey But contrariwise grant O God that the fortune of this Realme may euermore continue in good estate that I may neuer sée it ouerthrowne and that it may neuer haue cause to be sory for the losse of me or to wish for me againe FINIS THE KINGS Edict Importing the
