was taken by him for the ordering of the affaires of Wesell those points and puntillioes whereon so long time the Spaniards haue dwelt to prolong this affaire might haue beene long agoe cut off but now on the cōtrary he hath cause to grieue that hauing as much labored to sollicite the interuention of this State in this affaire as to draw the Spaniard to some reason notwithstanding all this importunitie he could neuer procure any other answere from hence neither touching this point or the other affaires but in generall termes witnesse that weake satisfactorie answere presented vnto his Maiestie by Mons de Buisseaux as also all the other answers to the sollicitations of the Princes of Germany Moreouer these Princes of the Vnion knowing that Spaine is the Fauourer and Protector of their Enemies will receiue no lesse damage and displeasure by the accomplishing of these mariages thus prosecuted without any necessity and so out of season that they will not only weaken them by the losse of France but also strengthen their Enemies by the aduantage of this Cōiunction And who can secure them from feare if the troubles of Sauoy can be appeased that the Army of Spaine which now threatneth Italic doth not come expresly by the forbearance of this State to fall vpon them and in particular the Elector of Brandenbourg who hath so long timerelyed vpon France cannot hereafter expect any fauour from hence for the deciding of his controuersie seeing that the King of Spaine hath taken the Duke of Newenbourg his Competitor into his protection As for the Duke of Sauoy who is descended from this Crowne and whose preseruation doth much concerne it as well for the neerenesse as for the situation of his Countrie if before the accomplishing of these marriages hee hath found France so violent and discourteous towards him as well by the harsh and peremptorie messages which haue been sent him from hence as by the rigorous inhibitions published in disfauour of him declaring all such as goe to aide or assist him offenders of his Maiestie and so vsing them by confiscation and razing of their houses a thing neuer heard of nor practized especially by France towards a Prince and Friend so vexed and oppressed by the Armes of one stronger then himselfe how may he hope after the consummation of the said marriages that this State will remaine an impartiall Arbitrator betwixt Spaine and him or that these Ministers which shall be imploied in his busines will deale faithfully and sincerely for the good of his affaires his Maiestie protesting for his owne part that his desire hath and euer shall be firmely to vnite himselfe with your Maiesties to incite the said Duke vnto peace howbeit he iudgeth it fit to haue an equall care lest by such disfauour he might be inforced to accept of conditions vnsafe and preiudiciall And since that the greatest Honour of France during the wise gouernement of the late King was the authority and trust which it had prudently and profitably to prouide as it hath done vpon diuers great and important occasions for the accommodating of differences betweene forraine Princes and States to the conseruation of the publique peace of Christendome and seeing that it is already apparent that the shaddow of these double alliances doth minister cause of feare to your ancient friēds that together with them the interests also of Spaine will be espoused it is most certaine that the precipitation of these marriages wil much augment this feare in them causing France to lose that authority and trust which their Councels haue had alwayes heretofore on their part turning their confidence into distrust and their loue into discontent If therefore notwithstanding all these weighty and vrgent considerations which concerne so neerly the person of your Maiestie and the Weale publique aswell of your owne State as of your Neighbors and Allies you shall hastily proceede to the cōsummation of this voyage what may they imagine who in this State and also among your Neighbours doe clearely perceiue weigh and apprehend these pregnant considerations but that thereby there is some hidden designe tending to their preiudice Lastly the King my Master shall haue iust cause of regret in his owne particular if hauing liued so many yeeres in loue and correspondency so firme with this Crowne insomuch that these two States hauing had almost one the selfe same to will and not to will the same Friends and Enemies haue alwayes ioyned their Counsels and guided their actions in all affaires and occurrances tending to the Weale publique after one and the same manner Now France diuerting it selfe from him by the precipitation of these Marriages with Spaine shall leaue vnto him alone the burthen and charge of all such affaires and differences as yet remaine in Christendome vndecided howsoeuer notwithstanding his Maiestie is not ignorant of the aduantage which elsewhere is offered vnto him by this alienation if he were a Prince ambitious to winne vnto him selfe alone the good will and friendship of all those ancient Allies which by this action seeme abandoned if he alone should not enterprise the managing of their affaires as hee will neuer bee wanting either by assistance or counsell to effect the same when necessity shall require But being not able on his part so sleightly to forget renounce the ancient correspondence Coniunction which hee hath hitherto maintayned with this Crowne hee is willing to vse all care and meanes for the preseruation of it in its owne estate before hee change his course or addresse himselfe to new counsels if he be not thereunto constrayned by this sudden alteration And this is it that his Maiesty hath charged me thus freely to represent these foresaid considerations vnto your Maiesty beseeching you to accept and embrace this his aduice euen as he presents it vnto you that is to say with his true and ancient affection for the good of your Person and State and the zeale he beareth vnto the weale publike of Christendome that you would be pleased so to dispose of your resolutions hereupon in this most weighty occasion that his Maiesty may enioy the contentment and you the fruit which he earnestly desireth A Declaration made by his Maiesties Ambassadour of Great Brittaine vnto the French King and the Queene his Mother concerning an Oration made by the Cardinall of Perron in the late generall Assembly of the Estates at Paris SIr the King my Master hauing seene a certaine Oration made in the Assembly of your States Generall held lately in this City and since published by Mons the Cardinall of Perron wherof he himselfe hath sent a Copie vnto his Maiestie cannot sufficiently wonder at the licentiousnesse and deprauation of this age animated with such audacity by the speeches and writings of a person of that qualitie who to ouerthrow a wholesome proposition made in the third Chamber of the said States for preseruation of the life and authoritie of Kings vnder pretence of maintaining the interest
