A02833	An aduertiseme[nt] to the subjects of Scotland of the fearfull dangers threatned to Christian states; and namely, to Great Britane, by the ambition of Spayne: with a contemplation, of the truest meanes, to oppose it. Also, diverse other treatises, touching the present estate of the kingdome of Scotland; verie necessarie to bee knowne, and considered, in this tyme: called, The first blast of the trumpet. Written by Peter Hay, of Naughton, in North-Britane.	Hay, Peter, gentleman of North-Britaine.	1627 (1627)	STC 12971; ESTC S118431	133,365	164

our Eyes a short way even to the beginning of Charls the fift the Grandsire of this present King there wee shall see the swift march of that Ambition so farre that if they had brooked that which they gripped since then they had matched the Romanes for dilatation of Empyre in the lyke tract of tyme. The generous Romanes did not found their Empyre vpon Oppression and Spoyle nor rayse it by Artes of Tyrannie They were a just and magnanin ious People concitate by GOD to deliver the Oppressed and purge the Worlde from prowde Tyrants to introduce Communitie of Conversation amongst Countreys Common Lawes of Iustice Civill Policie and Learning for the which sayeth one of the Fathers that GOD did favour their Empyre and the growing ther●-of Donec eo tandem deventum esset sayth he ut sieret totus terrarum orbis quasi unum cultissim●m imperiirus That it came to passe that the whole Worlde was as a well manured Husbandrie or Fame of that Empyre Where by the contrarie these late Kings of Spayne haue not onelie interverted the moste laudable and vertuous Ambition begun and prosequuted manie yeeres by their Predecessours for plantation of Religion and Policie amongst the Insidels of Africke of the Levantine Indies and diverse Yles of the Mayne Occean but they haue turned vp-syde downe this Christian Ambition as fayre Lucifer did change himselfe into a Devill and haue converted the Edge there-of to the confusion of the fayrest Countreys of Europe so sufficientlie adorned with Pietie Iustice and Policie that they might haue beene called The Gemmes of the Worlde And if the Moneyes and Forces of Armes which haue beene spent to the sackage of these within an hundreth yeares gone had beene employed against Barbarians and Ignorants of GOD then the best part of Africke of the Easterne and Westerne ●dies might haue beene at this day vnder the peaceable Domini● of that King and hee by that Conquest more justlie called a Catholicke King as may bee easilie vnderstoode by the Stories extant of the prosperous and happie beginninges of his Antecessours against the Infidels of those Nations vvhich because it doeth most clearlie paint out the vglie and odious Face of his detestable and execrable Ambition I thinke it not amisse to make a short Relation there-of out of their owne Histories About some more than 800 yeares by-gone Roderico a Christian King of the Gothes in Spayne having ravished and deflored the Daughter of the Earle Iuliano his owne Subject was casten out from his Kingdome slayne by Tariffio a Barbarian king brought from Africke by meanes of the sayde Iuliano for just revenge of the ignominie done to him Those Barbarians did possesse the whole Countrey few Cities excepted of Spayne with the vtter exterminion of the Gothicke Empyre and were begun to spreade them-selues over the Perenees when Pelagius sonne of the Duke of Biscaglia of vvhome is descended this present King of Spayne by succession not yet interrupted having a Sister of rare beautie in lyke sort violented and raped by a Cosin of this Barbarian King and beeing a great spirit full of Valour and Pietie both hee did plot some Stratagems for the revenge of this injurie where-in his cowrage and good fortune were so conspicuous that the Gothes now oppressed by the Barbarian servitude did comfort him to publicke Armes for restitution of their Christian Libertie where-in hee made so good progresse that they did elect and erect him to their Kingdome The Ravishment of the Daughter of Iuliano was the introduction of the Moores in Spayne and the dejection of the Gothicke Dominion The Rape of the Sister of Pelagius did procure the restitution of the same and the ejection of that Barbarian King There is not certainlie a Vyce which hath procured greater ruine to mightie Princes than this of raging and voluptuous Lust. Tyrannie hath throwne out manie from their Crownes but moe yet haue beene cast out by Immunditie Be-lyke as beeing a g●osse lo●rde and sensuall Vice the LORD doth more punish it i● Princes than private men who are set vp aboue their People to spreade abroad the Rayes of their exemplarie Pietie and Vertue This Pelagius did spende the rest of his dayes against those Infidels whom hee swept out of diverse corners of that Countrey although they were so numerous at that tyme that there were found of them in one Battell in Aquitane 400000 which made the VVorld adore in a sort his Name because hee was the first Prince who with extraordinarie zeale did enterpryse holie and heroicke VVarres against those impious Barbarians who were begun to treade over all Christian People Vertuous beginnings if with length of tyme they grow to large extent of Prosperitie they are much honoured by after-comming Ages and great reason for why the Tree how tall soever it bee in the Fielde yet it was once all in the Seede This is the just Rewarde of Vertue past and the chiefe Spurre of that which is to come This Pelagius is most renowned in the Histories Buchanan amongst others in his Iure regni apud Scotos doeth introduce him for the Image of a most vertuous and temperate Prince The second of these Kings memorable in Histories was Ferdinando called Magno who no lesse than Pelagius to the glorie of GOD and his immortall fame did pacifie his Controversies with some Christian Neighbours to his great disadvantage to manage Warres against the Moores of whom hee over-threw and banished the King of Toledo and the King of Siviglia with all their People This Prince is so honoured by their Wryters for a wonderfull temperament that was in him of fiercenesse against the Barbarians and religious humilitie of carriage and conversation with his Subjects that they doe equall him vnto that perfect Cavalliere that Virgill descrybeth in the person of Aeneas For the third I will remember Ferdinando called Santo who did holilie bend him-selfe to cleanse the Countrey of Spayne from the remnant of that Vermine with such zeale and fervour that hee was noted thus to speake of the Ambition of Princes that in their Warres they had diverse ends some Vindication some Extention of Dominions some Glorie of the World and loue of Popular Ayre and all these sayde hee were vaine as David speaketh of them Periit memoria illorum cum sonitu Their m●morie passeth away with that same sound which doeth so much inveagle them for the tyme. Others sayde hee haue for the scope of their Warres Iustice and the Peace of People and these doe not willinglie moue Warres but for succouring of the Oppressed and extinction of Pryde and Tyrannie And lastlie others for propogation of the Fayth and that sayde hee is the top of all Glorie to bee purchased by Warres Although hee saide that seldome were Christian Princes happie in that sort to haue their designes in Warre simple and incommixed vvith Ambition Pride or Avar●ce vvhich● saide hee vvas the true reason vvhy Christian Empyres

extende it selfe to the glorie of GOD the encrease of their owne Dominions and their immortall Fame This Globe of the World lyeth abroad by 360 degrees in Longitude and as manie in Latitude The English haue made Navigation to within 77 toward the North and the Portugals and Castilians to within 56 toward the South so there doe rest 228 to discover and what a fairer Field or richer Spoyles can bee wished for Christian Ambition or Avarice than this Yet what shall I say of this Emulation of neare and Neighbour-Princes It seemeth to bee fatall in effect and what is fatall is necessarie for fatall wee call Quasi fatum sive dictum a DEO A thing pronounced by GOD to bee For if wee shall take a view of His whole Works wee shall see nothing but a temperament and contrapoysing of naturall Extremities in such equalitie of Ballance that none bee able to excrease to the over-throw of the other The Heavens are placed into that Equilibrie that everie side is jumpe with the other and may not over-shoot it The contrarie motions of the Heavens doe not confound nor impede one an-other The coldnesse of Saturne and the heate of Mars doe not eate vp one another because Iupiter commeth betweene as the Axiltree of their Contrapoyse by the serenitie of his temperature So is it in the Elements the Fyre and Water are kept from desperate conflicts by the Ballance kept by the Ayre attempered to both So it is amongst Beastes where-of those that bee of fierce and savage kindes least vsefull vnto Man as Lyons GOD hath made them more barren Those agayne of the weaker sort which be more necessary and serviceable for Man He hath made more broodie and foecund to the end the Stronger should not be able to destroy that which is more infirme but the multitude of weake ones should bee sufficient to contrapoyse the paucitie of the mightier There is no Beast which is not afrayd of the Lyon trembleth at his presence yet some-thing hath he to contrapoyse his awfulnesse for he may not abide himself the crying of the Cocke but is astonied there-by So the Bellicose Elephant whom all the terrors of Battell cannot make afrayde he may not endure the cry of a Swyne but presentlie fleeth as is said in Eccles Intuere opera omnia Altissimi videbis semper unum contra aliud Doe contemplate all the workes of the most High you shall find aye one against another Even amongst the intellectuall Creatures the good Angels agaynst the bad GOD this way showing the Height and Deepnesse of His vnsearchable Wisedome by lodging and ruling of so manie contrarie things peaceablie within this one House of the Vniverse Shall wee not thinke then but the LORD who hath so moderated and brydled everie extreame contrarietie who hath placed Mountaines and steepe Shores to keepe in the raging Sea that shee rise not over her Marches and ordinarie Bankes but hee hath like-wise in the governament of the World by severall great Kingdomes and Monarchies appointed and allowed the same Contrapoyse that no Prince become so mightie as to devour his Neighbour that no Pryde or Insolencie doe excrease without Limitation certaynlie I thinke it hath a Warrand in Nature and Reason telleth vs That as it is lawfull to with-stand Force by Force it is also lawfull to provide if we can that no Case come that may constrayne vs to doe so or that may put vs to the employing of Force or Violence So that it seemeth lawfull to Princes or States to impede so farre as they can suspected Neighbour Grandour lest it become at length to master them Hieronimus King of Syracuse beeing demaunded as Polibius wryteth why in the meane-tyme of his beeing Confederate and Friende of Rome hee did ayde and supplie the Carthagenians against them Hee aunswered That it was to the ende hee might brooke the friendship still of the Romanes whome if hee shoulde suffer to over-throw the Carthagenians then of his Friends they should become his Masters Or will a wyse King within his owne Dominion permit a particular States-Man to carrie away the whole sway of Governament by too much of Authoritie no but he will contrapoyse him with a Colledge of a contrarie Disposition to keepe him in order Hence is it that the LORD GOD in all Ages hath suffered one Nation to combate with an-other one King to beate an-other and one man to holde in the Hornes of an-other that nothing should shoot out aboue that just proportion which doeth corresponde to the communion of Nature yea if wee should come to consider and weigh the particular Fabricke of everie one man's Bodie if the like equilibrie of Contra-Ballance did not attemper our contrarie Humours of Complexion certainlie our Constitution were not able to subsist but either the Choller shall burne vp the Flegme or the Flegme extinguish the Choller if the interjection of these median Humours of Sanguinean and Melancholicke did not impede that Conflict And hence are all the Leagues of Mutuall Defences amongst weaker States contracted against the more mightie Having thus shortlie shewed how the Ambition of Castile and Portugall was vertuous and laudable vnto the death of Charles the fift I come now to Philip his Sonne and Successour who did spot the Glorie of his noble Predecessours by turning his Thoughts to the Conquest of Christian People Hee it was who did complot and conduct all the Tragedies which thence-foorth haue beene acted in Christendome This King finding him-selfe debouted of his designe to the Crowne of England by the death of Marie Queene thereof who was his Wyfe returning into Spaine his first Practise was for excluding the Light of the Gospell which then began to breake foorth over all to strengthen against Christians that fearfull Inquisition which his Antecessours had erected against the Infidels Iewes and Moores where-of this farre may bee affirmed that if Satan him-selfe had beene King of Spaine hee could not haue brought from the bottomlesse Pit a more horrible Plague more cruell more Barbarous and beyonde all Humanitie the wicked Invention where-of no Words can suffice to expresse in sort that it doeth rather resemble Hell it selfe than that wee can finde anie Example ever heard of the like vpon the face of this Earth where innocent Men yea Good and holie Men after being straitlie incarcerate diverse Yeares spoiled of their Lands and Goods afflicted with Famine rent with Tortures and in ende falselie and vnjustlie condemned to the number of 800 in one Yeare vnder that King were brought to publicke Spectacles to bee burnt with Buckels and Bullets in their Mouthes to stop all Apologeticall speaches and againe and againe casten in the Fyre and taken out of the Fyre It is hard that anie Christian should thinke of it without Trembling and Teares the farther Discourse where-of were but vnpleasant heere
