so

named

consequently
,

her
fortune

a
Rose
,
yet
must
she
not
be
altogether
discouraged
,
so
long
as
there
remaineth
a
Lilly-Rose
behind
.

matchings
of
the
daughters
of
this
Island
with
forraigne
Princes
,

long
agoe
fore-told

that

Charles

ardent

)
commands

TOVCHING
THE
REAsons
of
this
present
Dedication
to
the
Illustrious
House
of
HOWARDS
.
MY
Muse
,
courteous
Reader
,
hauing
meditated
certaine
Historicall
and
Poeticall
Essayes
,
as
well
in
Latine
,
as
in
English
,
in
honour
of
our
most
gracious
King
Iames
,
his
most
Noble
wife
Queene
Anne
,
and
of
their
most
hopefull
children
,
Prince
Charles
,
Princesse
Elizabeth
,
and
Prince
Fredericke
her
Spouse
,
in
whose
common
extraction
&
descent
,
I
haue
remarked
no
fewer
then
25.
Emperours
,
and
30.
Kings
of
diuers
Countries
,
I
resolued
with
my selfe
to
commend
the
same
to
the
honourable
Patronage
of
the
Illustrious
house
of
Howard
,
for
these
reasons
following
.
First
,
because
of
the
singular
excellencie
of
this
name
,
in
whose
extraction
no
fewer
then
12.
Emperours
,
and
30.
Kings
of
diuers
Countries
,
are
contained
,
whereof
most
part
are
the
same
Emperours
and
Kings
which
do
occurre
in
the
extraction
common
to
the
aboue-named
,
two
most
Noble
Princes
,
as
shall
bee
shewed
,
God-willing
,
in
our
Latine
worke
:
and
truely
it
must
needs
be
a
thing
that
doth
much
illustrate
and
commend
,
the
exceellencie
and
honour
of
our
King
and
Country
,
to
haue
such
Subiects
as
this
worthy
house
doth
yeeld
,
being
so
Nobilitated
by
the
meanes
both
of
their
Princely
descent
,
and
of
their
publicke
deserts
,
as
they
are
.
Secondly
,
because
of
a
certaine
kind
of
honourable
,
and
notable
similitude
,
and
affinity
,
that
the
Noble
name
of
Howard
hath
with
the
Royall
name
of
Steward
;
for
both
names
do
signifie
,
in
the
old
Saxon
tongue
,
as
much
as
the
Warden
,
or
Gouernour
of
a
a
Place
,
Fort
,
or
Castle
;
both
being
at
the
first
imposed
by
reason
of
the
charge
,
preferment
and
place
,
the
two
first
persones
,
that
were
so
named
,
did
beare
in
the
Common-wealth
.
So
that
these
two
Sur-names
,
may
truely
say
,
that
which
many
other
Sur-names
cannot
say
;
which
is
,
that
the
first
two
Wights
,
that
euer
bare
the
names
of
Steward
and
Howard
,
as
they
were
both
borne
in
South-britanny
,
so
were
they
both
men
of
quality
,
reputation
and
rancke
,
and
euen
such
,
as
wee
commonly
name
Gentlemen
,
and
Noblemen
.
Moreouer
,
as
both
names
giue
the
Lyon
Rampant
,
though
different
in
coulour
,
for
their
badge
or
Armes
;
so
both
can
fetch
their
Pedigree
from
diuers
of
the
same
Emperours
,
and
Kings
of
diuers
Countries
,
and
namely
from
Kings
of
England
,
and
Scotland
.
Likewise
both
names
haue
beene
matched
with
the
Royall
bloud
of
England
;
for
as
Margaret
,
a
daughter
of
England
,
was
married
to
a
Royall
Steward
of
Scotland
,
King
Iames
the
4.
(
in
the
which
businesse
a
Noble
Howard
had
an
especiall
employment
)
so
Katherine
,
a
daughter
of
the
house
of
Howard
,
was
married
to
a
King
of
England
,
Henry
the
8.
Besides
,
that
famous
Queene
Elizabeth
was
descended

had
the

Earle

Lord

,
and
the
Lady
Margaret
Steward
daughter

Earle

.
Thirdly
,
it
hath
bene
the
common
fortune
of
both
these
names
to
reape
much
good
lucke
,
and
preferment
,
either
of
them
by
the
meanes
of
three
Ladies
,
being
both
of
the
same
Country
,
and
of
the
same
names
,
to
wit
,
either
of
them
by
two
Margarets
and
one
Elizabeth
.
The
three
English
Ladies
,
which
brought
good
fortune
to
the
Royall
name
of
Steward
,
were
these
;
first
,
Margaret
,
the
daughter
of
Prince
Edward
,
sur-named
the
Out-law
,
son
of
King
Edmond
Ironside
,
who
being
married
to
Malcolme
Cammore
King
of
Scotland
,
brought
to
King
Iames
,
the
first
right
of
succession
to
this
Crowne
;
secondly
,
Elizabeth
,
of
the
house
of
Yorke
,
daughter
to
King
Edward
the
4.
married
to
King
Henry
the
7.
of
the
house
of
Lancaster
:
Thirdly
,
Margaret
,
their
eldest
daughter
borne
in
the
blessed
white-red
Vnion-bed
of
the
two
Roses
,
who
being
married
to
Iames
the
fourth
,
king
of
Scotland
,
brought
the
second
right
of
succession
to
our
most
gracious
King
Iames
,
the
happy
Vniter
of
the
two
Kingdomes
.
To
these
three
Ladies
of
Britanny
,
wee
may
adde
other
these
of
Germany
,
bearing
the
same
names
,
from
the
which
King
Iames
,
and
his
hopefull
children
,
namely
,
Prince
Fredericke
,
are
collineally
descended
,
and
they
are
these
;
first
,
Margaret
Countesse
of
Holland
,
Dutchesse
of
Bauier
and
Empresse
,
wife
to
Lodowicke
the
5.
Duke
of
Bauier
and
Emperour
;
secondly
,
Elizabeth
,
Princesse
Palatine
&
Empresse
,
wife
to
Robert
Prince
Palatine
and
Emperour
,
thirdly
,
Margaret
Dutchesse
of
Lorraine
their
daughter
.
And
it
is
my
ardent
wish
that
the
fore-said
two
Germane
Margarets
and
Elizabeth
,
may
proue
as
lucky
to
King
Iames
,
and
his
hopefull
children
for
their
Imperiall
preferment
in
Germany
,
as
the
two
English
Margarets
and
Elizabeth
haue
done
for
his
Royall
preferment
in
Britanny
.
And
the
three
Ladies
of
the
same
names
which
brought
good
fortune
and
preferment
to
the
house
of
Howard
,
were
these
;
first
,
Margaret
Plantagenet
Dutchesse
of
Norfolke
,
the
onely
daughter
and
heire
of
Thomas
Plantagenet
,
Earle
of
Norfolke
,
son
to
King
Edward
the
1
:
secondly
,
Elizabeth
Lady
Segraue
,
the
daughter
and
heire
of
the
said
Lady-Dutchesse
Margaret
,
&
of
Iohn
Lord
Segrane
;
thirdly
,
Margaret
Mowbray
,
daughter
of
the
said
Lady
Elizabeth
,
and
of
Iohn
Lord
Mowbray
,
maried
to
Sir
Robert
Howard
Knight
,
the
father
and
mother
of
Iohn
Lord
Howard
Duke
of
Norfolke
.
So
that
as
a
Robert
was
the
first
Royall
Progenitor
of
the
Royall
Stewards
,
King
Robert
the
Bruce
surnamed
the
Noble
,
being
the
Grand-father
of
Robert
the
first
King
of
the
Stewards
;
and
as
a
Robert
Prince
Palatine
and
Emperour
,
likewise
sur-named
the
Noble
,
is
he
,
from
whom
King
Iames
and
Prince
Frederick
are
descended
both
in
the
9.
degree
(
as
our
late
published
Pedigree
doth
show
)
so
was
a
Noble
Robert
the
first
Progenitor
of
the
Dukes
of
Norfolke
,
of
the
honoured
name
of
Howard
,
vnto
whose
worthy
Patronage
,
wee
thought
good
,
for
the
reasons
afore-said
,
and
others
wee
might
mention
,
to
commend
our
Essayes
in
Latine
and
English
(
whereof
these
Presents
are
but
a
scantling
)
vndertaken
by
vs
,
in
honour
of
a
number
of
most
Noble
Princes
:
And
thus
,
Courteous
Reader
,
crauing
thy
fauourable
construction
of
these
our
endeuours
,
wee

a
schollar-like
kind
,
to
such
as

,
we
bid
thee
hartely
fare-well
.
THE
SVMME
OF
DIVERS
Pedigrees
common
to
the
two
most
Noble
Princes
FREDERICKE
and
ELIZABETH
,
Collected
by
the
Authour
,
in
Honour
of
their
Highnesses
.
IT
is
the
common
consent
,
and
constant
opinion
,
of
Hystorians
,
and
Genelogians
,
that
the
Palatine
Princes
are
lineally
descended
from
glorious
Charlemaigne
,
once
the
most
Augustious
Emperour
of
Romans
&
Germanes
,
&
King
of
France
,
most
Christian
,
and
it
was
chiefly
in
consideration
hereof
,
that
they
were
preferred
before
many
other
Princes
,
&
Potentates
of
great
power
in
Germany
,
in
the
election
of
the
Emperour
,
&
namely
before
the
Duke
of
Saxe
,
a
Prince
of
great
puissance
,
authority
and
command
;
notwithstanding
that
both
Otho
the
3.
Emperor
,
&
Pope
Gregory
the
5.
which
did
ordaine
the
sanction
of
the
seuen
Electors
(
according
as
Blondus
,
Polydorus
,
Bergomensis
,
Nauclerus
,
Crantzius
,
Balaeus
,
and
Egnatius
do
deliuer
)
were
both
of
them
Princes
of
the
house
of
Saxe
,
for
the
said
Emperour
Otho
,
belike
considering
with
himselfe
,
how
that
hee
had
done
a
greater
wrong
to
Charlemaigne
in
bereauing
his
race
of
the
Golden
Crowne
of
the
Empire
,
by
the
meanes
of
his
foresaid
Electionary
sanction
or
decree
,
them
he
had
done
,
when
as
he
opened
his
Sepulcher
,
and
bereft
his
Corps
of
the
Golden
Crosse
did
hang
about
his
neck
(
as
Ditmarus
,
who
liued
in
those
daies
,
doth
write
)
for
the
which
it
is
said
that
he
was
in
his
sleepe
visited
&
affrighted
with
a
reuengefull
vision
of
the
said
Charlemaigne
,
menacing
him
with
death
,
which
shortly
after
did
ensue
:
Otho
,
I
say
,
considering
the
wrong
afore-said
,
done
to
Charlemaigne
and
his
Race
,
endeauored
by
al
meanes
to
yeeld
them
some
competent
satisfaction
,
and
therefore
preferred
the
Count
Palatine
of
the
Rhine
,
being
of
the
Imperiall
bloud
,
and
Male
Race
of
Charlemaigne
,
before
the
Duke
of
Saxe
,
and
the
rest
of
the
Princes
of
the
Empire
,
in
the
fore-said
Election
.
Besides
,
that
the
first
Emperour
,
which
was
elected
by
the
seuen
Electors
,
which
was
Henry
the
second
,
Duke
of
Bauier
,
being
likewise
a
Prince
of
the
Saxon
bloud
,
and
afterwards
enstiled
Saint
Henry
,
for
his
singular
Piety
&
Chastity
,
as
Vrspergensis
,
Frisingensis
,
Egnatius
,
Cuspinianus
,
&
others
do
witnesse
,
he
to
make
yet
some
further
satisfaction
to
Charlemaignes
Race
,
did
both
marry
the
daughter
of
Siffrid
,
Prince
Palatine
,
named
Cunegunde
,
and
did
like-wise
restore
vnto
his
brother-in-law
Henry
the
first
of
this
name
,
Prince
Palatine
,
the
Dukedome
of
Banier
,
as
we
learne
out
of
Ditmarus
&
others
.
And
it
was
,
no
doubt
,
in
regard
of
their
fore-said
descent
from
Charlemaigne
,
that
a
certaine
super-Imperiall
priuiledge
was
conferred
vnto
the
Palatine
Prince
,
which
is
,
as
the
golden
Bul
of
the
Emperor
Charls
the
4.
doth
beare
,
that
he
may
,
in
some
case
,
cite
and
summon
the
Emperor
to
appeare
and
answere
before
him
Iudicially
.
And
because
that
in
honor
of
the
two
most
Noble
Princes
,
lately
maried
,
Frederick
&
Elizabeth
,
we
haue
drawne
diuers
Pedigrees
&
descents
,
both
from
glorious
Charlemaigne
,
and
from
many
other
Emperors
,
&
Kings
of
diuers
countries
,
common
to
them
both
,
especially
seuen
;
therfore
mee
thought
it
good
,
to
exhibite
vnto
the
readers
a
summary
view
of
the
same
,
reseruing
the
more
speciall
handling
thereof
to
another
labour
and
worke
in
Latine
.
In
the
first
foure
of
the
said
seuen
Pedigrees
,
common
to
both
the
said
Princes
,
our
most
gratious
Soueraigne
King
Iames
,
&
his
most
Noble
son-in-law
Prince
Fredericke
are
in
one
&
the
selfe
same
degree
of
descent
from
the
20
Emperors
,
and
24.
Kings
therein
mentioned
.
In
the
fifth
Pedigree
,
our
most
gratious
Queene
Anne
,
and
the
said
Prince
,
are
likewise
in
one
and
the
same
degree
of
Descent
,
From
the
4.
Emperours
and
3.
Kings
therein
named
:
And
in
th
sixth
and
seuenth
,
Prince
Fredericke
,
and
Princesse
Elizabeth
do
happely
and
iointly
fall
into
one
and
the
same
degree
of
descent
from
the
Emperour
and
8.
Kings
contained
therein
:
Likewise
Prince
Charles
,
and
Prince
Fredericke
,
two
brothers-in-law
,
are
colineally
descended
from
two-borne-brothers
,
to
wit
,
from
Henry
prince
Palatine
,
and
Duke
of
Saxe
the
elder
of
the
two
,
from
whom
Prince
Fredericke
is
in
the
15.
degree
;
and
from
Otho
Earle
of
Yorke
and
Emperour
,
the
yonger
brother
,
from
whom
P.
Charles
Duke
of
Yorke
being
likewise
the
yonger
,
of
the
said
two
brothers-in-law
,
is
descended
,
both
on
his
fathers
and
his
mothers
side
,
in
the
13.
and
14.
degree
;
though
,
as
I
noted
other-where
,
some
do
hold
that
he
had
no
children
by
any
of
his
wiues
.
The
first
of
the
fore-said
seuen
common
pedigrees
containeth
fifteene
Emperours
of
Romans
,
Greekes
,
and
Germans
,
with
eight
Kings
of
diuers
Countries
,
as
namely
,
Germanie
,
Bauier
,
(
for
anciently
it
was
a
Kingdome
)
Hungary
,
Boheme
,
Sicile
,
and
England
,
whereof
two
Kings
are
therein
specified
:
to
wit
,
Edward
the
elder
,
and
Henry
2.
from
whom
P.
Fredericke
is
descended
by
both
his
daughters
;
to
wit
,
Maude
the
elder
,
married
to
Henry
the
Lyon
,
Duke
of
Saxe
and
Bauier
,
and
Leonora
the
yonger
,
married
to
Alphonse
the
8.
King
of
Castile
,
Whereby
we
may
see
that
like
as
P.
Fredericke
is
descended
from
the
Kings
of
England
,
so
is
King
Iames
likewise
descended
from
diuers
of
the
Germane
Emperours
,
especially
by
the
meanes
of
his
most
Noble
mother
,
and
the
most
Illustrious
house
of
Loraine
,
whence
it
doth
follow
,
that
hee
is
capable
of
the
Imperiall
dignity
,
as
being
of
the
bloud
of
Germanie
,
and
of
the
Empire
.
The
second
common
Pedigree
,
containeth
fiue
Emperours
of
Constantinople
,
together
with
seuen
Kings
of

which
number
,
are
Edmond
Ironside
,
and
Henry
the
first
Kings
of
England
,
(
besides
King
Henry
the
2.
mentioned
in
the
first
Pedigree
)
together
with
Malcolme
Cammore
King
of
Scotland
.
The
fourth
common
Pedigree
is
from
S.
Lod●wicke
,
or
Lewis
the
incomparable
King
of
France
,
from
whom
King
Iames
,
and
Prince
Fredericke
on
their
most
Noble
mothers
side
,
Mary
,
and
Lucy-Iuliane
,
are
lineally
descended
in
one
and
the
same
degree
with
King
Lodowick
the
13.
of
this
name
,
being
all
three
in
the
12
degree
.
The
fifth
pedigree
containeth
foure
Emperors
,
and
three
Kings
of
Boheme
,
and
Poland
.
The
sixth
pedigree
containeth
seuen
Kings
of
Arragon
,
Valence
,
France
,
Nauarre
,
England
,
Castile
,
and
Leon
,
of
which
number
are
Edward
the
2.
and
Edward
the
3.
Kings
of
England
,
and
Iohn
of
Gant
his
sonne
,
Knight
of
the
renowned
Order
of
the
Garter
,
Earle
of
Richmond
,
Darby
,
Leicester
,
and
Lincolne
,
Palatine
of
Chester
,
Great
Constable
of
France
,
and
High
Steward
of
England
,
Duke
of
Aquitane
and
Lancaster
,
and
King
of
Castile
and
Leon
;
from
whom
prince
Fredericke
,
and
princesse
Elizabeth
are
lineally
descended
,
the
one
by
his
sonne
.
Iohn
Earle
of
Sommerset
,
Marquis
Dorset
,
the
other
by
his
daughter
Philippa
married
to
Iohn
King
of
Portugale
,
&
both
in
the
tenth
degree
,
which
is
the
eleuenth
from
King
Edward
the
3.
as
the
pedigree
I
haue
lately
published
doth
shew
.
The
seuenth
and
last
Pedigree
common
to
both
the
said
Princes
,
is
from
Lodowicke
the
5.
Duke
of
Bauier
and
Emperour
,
and
his
wife
Margaret
the
Empresse
,
and
Countesse
of
Holland
;
together
with
King
Iohn
of
France
,
from
the
which
Emperour
and
Empresse
they
are
both
in
the
12
degree
.
So
that
the
number
of
the
Emperours
contained
in
the
said
seuen
pedigrees
.
common
to
both
,
falleth
out
to
be
twenty
&
fiue
;
and
the
number
of
the
Kings
of
diuers
countries
therin
specified
,
is
thirty
,
and
aboue
;
and
euen
so
many
Kings
besides
12.
Emperours
,
haue
we
found
in
the
Princely
descent
of
the
Illustrious
house
of
Howards
,
as
wee
shall
(
God
willing
)
shew
in
another
worke
.
One
thing
there
is
,
which
the
special
affection
I
do
beare
to
the
honour
of
the
name
of
Iames
,
will
not
suffer
me
to
smother
vp
,
and
that
is
;
That
our
most
gracious
Souerainge
King
Iames
,
the
first
of
this

in
Britanny
,
and
likewise
the
first

the

therof
,
and
the
son
&
heire
of
a
Matchlesse
Q.
Mary
,
together
with
his
Noble
son-in-law
,
P.
Fredericke
are
both
of
them
in
the
13.
degree
of
lineall
descent
from
Iames
the
first
of
this
name
,
surnamed
the
Fortunate
,
son
and
heire
of
a
worthy
Queene

,
and

Lucius
Marinius
,
and
Damianus
à
Goes
make
most
honourable
mention
.
And
from
the
same
vniting
King
of
Aragon
,
Iames
the
Fortunate
,
who
was
likewise
the
Author
of
two
seuerall
Orders
of
Knighthood
(
as
Polydorus
,
Zuingerus
,
and
others
do
write
)
Prince
Fredericke
,
and
Princesse
Elizabeth
,
are
yet
another
way
lineally
descended
,
and
that
both
in
one
&
the
same
degree
,
of
the
number
of
fifteene
.
It
is
likewise
worthy
of
obseruation
,
that
whereas
there
haue
beene
but
only
two
Emperours
of
the
Palatine
Family
he●…●…e

the

●hat
the
two
Princes
lately
married
,
are
descended
equally
from
them
both
,
with
their
Empresses
,
Margaret
and
Elizabeth
;
from
the
first
two
,
both
in
the
12
degree
;
and
from
the
other
two
,
He
in
the
9.
&
She
in
the
10
degree
.
And
my
hearty
wish
is
,
that
these
two
names
aforesaid
,
Margaret
and
Elizabeth
may
proue
as
lucky
Imperially
,
for
Frederickes
and
Elizabeths
Imperiall
preferment
in
Germany
,
as
the
same
names
haue
heretofore
done
royally
for
King
Iames
their
fathers
royall
preferment
in
Britanny
.
It
is
also
worth
the
noting
,
that
as
there
haue
beene
as
yet
but
only
two
Emperours
of
the
Palatine
family
,
so
haue
they
had
a
very
different
fortune
in
their
acceptance
towards
the
Pope
;
for
Lodowicke
the
5.
Duke
of
Bauier
,
and
Emperour
,
as
is
said
before
,
from
whom
Prince
Fredericke
is
the
12
,
was
highly
hated
of
Benedict
the
12
,
and
before
him
,
yet
more
,
of
Iohn
the
22
(
whose
name
is
so
numerous
,
that
he
might
haue
well
said
with
the
vncleane
spirit
in
the
Gospell
,
my
name
is
Legion
)
and
yet
after
him
of
a
third
pope
,
Clement
the
6.
The
which
three
popes
(
most
like
the
three
Furies
)
did
no
other
thing
else
,
from
day
to
day
,
but
heape
hellish
sentence
vpon
sentence
of
excommunication
&
depriuation
against
the
good
Emperour
;
who
not
withstanding
all
their
Infernall
fulminations
,
and
Cerbereall
oblatrations
,
receiued
more
honour
in
Rome
,
at
the
hands
of
both
Clergy
&
Laity
there
,
then
they
all
three
did
in
Auinion
;
and
in
spite
of
the
Diuell
,
liued
longer
in
the
Empire
,
then
they
all
three
did
in
the
Papacy
.
But
who
list
to
learne
more
of
the
quarrels
and
contentions
betweene
the
good
Emperour
Lodowike
,
and
the
foresaid
three
euill
popes
of
Auinion
,
let
them
read
the
histories
of
Blondus
,
Sabellicus
,
Merula
,
Cuspinianus
,
and
Thomas
Walsingham
,
who
likewise
do
tell
,
how
that
Edward
the
third
,
King
of
England
,
who
went
ouer
into
Germany
to
salute
the
said
Emperour
,
&
to
treat
of
an
alliance
with
him
against
France
,
was
met
of
the
said
Emperour
at
Colein
,
and
admitted
to
be
his
Vicar
generall
in
the
Empire
.
And
the
same
Lodowickes
father
,
named
Lodowicke
the
Seuere
,
Prince
Palatine
,
together
with
his
brother
Henry
,
Duke
of
Bauier
,
had
likewise
chosen
Richard
,
Earle
of
Cornwall
,
son
of
King
Iohn
,
to
be
Emperour
;
like
as
Robert
the
first
of
this
name
,
Prince
Palatine
,
(
for
this
Title
is
in
Aurea
Bulla
as
well
as
that
of
Count
Palatine
)
did
choose
the
foresaid
King
Edward
the
third
,
to
be
Emperour
after
the
death
of
Lodowicke
the
5.
though
hee
(
too
modestly
indeed
)
refused
the
said
dignity
.
By
which
particulars
wee
may
espy
how
that
the
Palatine
Princes
haue
been
in
former
times
very
officious
to
the
Kings
of
England
,
and
their
children
;
hoping
that
they
shall
hereafter
proue
yet
more
officious
&
forward
in
the
same
kind
,
then
euer
they
haue
done
before
,
to
the
end
that
old
prophesies
may
take
effect
,
which
doe
promise
,
that
the
Imperiall
dignity
shall
for
many
yeares
continue
in
Britanny
,
as
our
Sibylla
Britannica
shall
largely
shew
.
The
other
Emperour
of
the
Palatine
house
,
was
Robert
,
surnamed
the
Noble
,
who
reigned
in
great
honor
,
9
yeares
and
9
moneths
,
from
whom
prince
Fredericke
is
the
9.
)
as
the
pedigree
lately
published
doth
shew
)
and
who
was
so
highly
beloued
of
pope
Boniface
the
9.
that
hee
not
onely
furthered
and
confirmed
his
election
,
but
also
granted
him
,
towards
a
subsidy
,
one
yeares
tythes
of
the
Clergy
,
through
all
Germany
,
as
Cuspinianus
and
others
do
write
.
So
that
this
good
Pope
in
doing
this
good
office
,
and
in
vsing
so
well
the
worthy
Emperour
,
did
answere
to
his
name
,
and
was
a
Boniface
indeed
,
farre
otherwise
then
did
Benedictus
the
12.
and
Clement
the
6
in
the
behalfe
of
the
other
Palatine
Emperour
named
before
.
And
for
mine
owne
part
,
I
wish
with
all
my
heart
that
many
such
Bishops
may
sit
in
the
Apostolicall
Chaire
,
as
may
both
in
their
own
persons
giue
vnto
God
the
things
that
are
Gods
,
&
vnto
Caesar
the
things
that
are
Caesars
;
and
with
blessed
S.
Peter
,
teach
all
Christians
to
feare
God
,
&
honor
the
King
.
The
foresaid
Robert
the
good
Emperour
,
&
who
was
so
highly
beloued
of
the
good
pope
Boniface
the
9.
was
a
prince
renowned
for
his
great
spirit
,
quicke
wit
,
heroicall
courage
,
for
his
loue
and
study
of
Iustice
,
(
for
the
which
cause
he
was
surnamed
Robertus
Iustimanus
)
&
for
his
carefull
endeuouring
to
repaire
the
ancient
glory
of
the
Empire
.
Hee
came
into
England
with
a
goodly
company
(
as
Fabian
&
Cooper
do
write
)
in
the
yeare
1403.
to
see
the
magnificence
of
the
Court
,
and
the
commodities
of
the
Countrey
,
who
of
King
Henry
the
4.
was
honorably
&
triumphantly
receiued
&
feasted
;
and
during
his
abode
lodged
at
S.
Iohns
by
Smithfield
:
&
lastly
conueyed
towards
the
seaside
,
where
either
departed
from
other
with
exchange
of
rich
&
pretious
gifts
:
for
this
Robert
(
saith
our
said
English
Author
)
was
a
prince
of
great
bounty
,
liberality
,
and
magnificence
,
and
shewed
diuers
effects
thereof
towards
the
English
at
his
departure
.
He
was
likewise
the
first
Emperor
that
euer
ware
S.
Georges
renowned
order
,
commonly
called
,
The
Order
of
the
Garter
,
as
Maximilian
the
2.
another
glorious
Emperour
was
the
eighth
.
He
was
likewise
the
first
of
the
three
Palatines
,
which
haue
ben
honored
with
the
foresaid
noble
Order
;
Iohn
Casimire
being
the
second
,
who
receiued
it
at
the
hands
of
famous
Queene
Elizabeth
,
about
the
same
time
of
the
yeare
,
&
day
of
the
moneth
,
(
to
wit
,
the
8.
of
February
)
that
P.
Fredericke
being
the
third
,
receiued
it
at
the
hands
of
our
gracious
K.
Iames.
The
said
Emperor
Roberts
wife
was
named
Elizabeth
the
Empresse
,
&
princesse
Palatine
,
and
was
a
Lady
of
singular
vertue
,
piety
,
bounty
,
chastity
&
charity
towards
the
poore
;
who
brought
forth
to
her
worthy
husband
many
fine
children
,
to
wit
,
fiue
sons
,
by
the
meanes
of
the
yongest
whereof
,
P.
Fredericke
is
descended
from
the
said
Emperor
&
Empres
in
the
9.
degree
;
&
three
daughters
,
by
the
meanes
of
the
eldest
wherof
,
named
Margaret
,
princesse
Elizabeth
is
likewise
descended
from
them
in
the
10
degree
;
the
which
numbers
in
them
vnited
,
make
vp
K.
Iames
his
luckly
number
of
Nineteene
.
Thus
wee
see
;
that
like
as
our
most
gracious
King
Iames
,
with
his
hopefull
children
,
prince
Charles
,
&
princesse
Elizabeth
are
lineally
descended
from
two
Margarets
,
and
one
Elizabeth
of
Britany
,
being
the
renowned
daughters
of
prince
Edward
,
surnamed
the
Outlaw
:
K.
Edward
the
4.
and
K.
Henry
the
7.
in
whose
tripled
right
(
the
two
Margarets
being
married
to
two
kings
of
Scotland
,
Malcolme
Cammore
,
and
Iames
the
4.
)
he
doth
at
this
day
happily
and
rightfully
enioy
this
Crowne
.
So
are
they
likewise
descended
lineally
from
other
two
Margarets
&
an
Elizabeth
of
Germany
,
to
wit
,
from
Margaret
Countesse
of
Holland
,
Dutchesse
of
Bauier
,
&
Empresse
,
wife
to
Lodowicke
the
Emperour
,
from
Elizabeth
Dutchesse
of
Bauier
,
princesse
Palatine
,
and
Empresse
,
wife
to
Robert
the
Emperour
:
and
sustly
,
from
Margaret
,
Dutchesse
of
Loraine
,
the
eldest
daughter
of
the
said
Robert
the
Emperour
,
and
Elizabeth
the
Empresse
,
and
who
was
married
to
the
most
noble
and
valorous
prince
Charles
,
surnamed
Marcelle
,
or
the
warlike
Duke
of
Loraine
,
from
whom
I
haue
deriued
our
hopefull
P.
Charles
his
pedigree
;
and
that
as
well
on
his
noble
mothers
as
on
his
happy
fathers
side
,
and
yet
more
from
Emperours
,
Kings
and
Princes
of
the
name
of
Charles
,
to
the
number
of
9.
besides
those
of
other
names
,
as
also
I
haue
done
from
P.
Albert
,
Marquise
of
Brandeburge
,
who
for
his
incomparable
courage
was
called
the
Achilles
of
Germany
;
wishing
with
all
my
heart
,
that
like
as
prince
Charles
was
borne
on
his
day
,
&
doth
participate
of
his
bloud
,
so
he
may
likewise
inherit
his
heroical
prowesse
,
and
so
one
day
be
enstiled
the
Achilles
of
Britanny
:
the
which
our
hearty
wish
is
more
fully
expressed
in
an
Astrologicall
and
Historicall
poem
made
vpon
his
Natiuity
.
And
thus
for
the
present
are
we
contented
to
shut
vp
this
Genealogicall
summe
with
this
six-line-Epigram
,
in

of
Fredericke
