A
true
discourse
of
things
happened
in
the
armie
for
Sauoy
,
and
in
the
winning
of
the
Castle
of
Mont-millan
.
HIs
most
Christian
Maiestie
,
forbearing
so
farre
as
his
honor
and
the
duety
of
a
Prince
that
loueth
peace
and
the
good
of
his
Countrey
could
affoorde
,
was
at
the
last
to
his
great
griefe
,
forced
to
haue
recourse
to
all
meanes
conuenient
to
bring
the
Duke
of
Sauoy
to
good
order
.
The
said
Duke
hauing
taken
from
the
crowne
of
France
,
and
vsurped
the
Marquizat
of
Saluces
in
time
of
peace
,
in
the
dayes
of
the
late
King
Henry
the
third
,
his
Maiesties
predecessor
of
happy
memory
,
hath
not
restored
the
said
Marquizate
,
according
to
the
treatie
and
conclusion
of
peace
made
at
Veruins
in
the
yeare
1598.
betwéene
his
Maiestie
Phillip
the
second
late
King
of
Spaine
,
and
the
said
Duke
of
Sauoy
,
neither
as
he
promised
by
the
last
agréement
betwéene
his
Maiestie
and
the
said
Duke
of
Sauoy
,
made
at
Paris
in
February
last
.
A
matter
that
hath
mooued
his
Maiestie
to
alter
his
purpose
:
declaring
to
those
to
whome
it
may
concerne
,
that
hauing
attended
the
said
Dukes
resolution
,
he
was
lastly
enforced
to
recouer
the
said
Marquizate
by
force
of
Armes
.
The
King
therefore
willing
by
vallour
and
in
discretion
,
not
onely
to
preserue
that
which
appertaineth
to
the
Crowne
,
but
also
to
recouer
that
which
aforetime
hath
béene
alienated
,
did
therevpon
redemaund
the
Marquizate
of
Saluces
,
which
●●d
béene
alienated
,
as
is
aforesaid
.
But
the
Duke
finding
it
to
be
one
of
the
most
precious
flowers
of
his
garland
,
referred
off
the
King
dayly
for
the
restitution
of
the
same
:
Whereby
his
Maiestie
hauing
expected
it
a
yeare
and
a
halfe
,
did
neuerthelesse
liue
in
hope
according
to
the
said
Dukes
promise
,
to
haue
had
the
said
restitution
performed
by
the
first
day
of
June
last
passed
.
But
the
King
perceiuing
that
his
elemencie
engendred
so
great
contempt
,
sent
his
solemne
declaration
to
the
saide
Duke
of
Sauoy
,
therein
protesting
that
himselfe
was
no
cause
of
the
warre
or
breache
of
peace
,
but
that
full
ill
against
his
will
he
vndertooke
this
warre
,
as
knowing
verye
well
that
it
could
not
redound
but
to
the
said
Dukes
vtter
ruine
&
decay
.
The
King
therefore
,
considering
the
premisses
,
did
to
his
great
griefe
(
albeit
he
came
not
out
of
Paris
to
that
intent
)
bring
his
armie
into
Bresse
and
Sauoy
,
where
it
soone
shewed
it selfe
with
so
many
troopes
,
as
prooued
,
that
the
Kings
iust
title
or
quarrell
carried
that
which
to
him
did
appertaine
.
The
townes
and
Castles
neuer
stood
out
any
or
very
small
force
,
but
yéelded
:
so
as
the
King
in
a
very
short
time
pierced
through
the
countrey
euen
to
Mont-millan
,
where
vpon
his
arriuall
,
he
seized
on
the
towne
,
as
likewise
he
did
sooneafter
of
Chamtery
,
Charbonniers
and
other
places
,
euen
to
Morienne
,
which
he
brought
vnder
his
obedience
,
in
which
places
himselfe
was
present
,
to
the
great
perrill
and
danger
of
his
life
.
Hauing
thus
taken
the
towne
of
Mont-millan
,
he
caused
the
Castle
to
be
summoned
to
yéelde
,
vnlesse
that
they
had
rather
endure
the
furie
of
the
Cannon
.
Howbeit
,
sith
they
grew
obstinate
,
the
King
deuided
his
army
to
beate
it
on
euery
side
,
and
caused
his
men
to
raise
Bastions
,
Fortes
,
Hilles
,
and
Bulwarkes
with
wonderfull
pollicie
to
beate
the
place
.
This
doone
,
it
séemed
,
that
albeit
mans
industrie
could
performe
no
more
,
yet
all
this
was
but
as
a
Butte
for
the
Cannons
of
the
said
Castle
to
leuell
at
:
the
place
being
of
all
men
holden
to
be
inpregnable
and
almost
inaccessible
.
But
God
,
who
ruleth
the
hearts
of
Kings
and
Princes
,
peized
the
hearts
of
these
two
Princes
,
whereby
the
one
was
found
to
be
replenished
with
a
iust
quarrell
,
whereto
he
also
shewed
himselfe
fauourable
,
as
he
promiseth
by
his
Prophets
,
when
he
findeth
a
heart
after
his
owne
minde
.
So
that
whereas
the
Duke
of
Sauoy
,
purposed
there
to
haue
suffered
the
Frenchmen
to
haue
champed
on
their
bittes
,
with
the
discommoditie
of
the
winter
season
and
tempests
,
the
place
happily
fell
into
the
kings
hands
,
to
the
great
preiudice
of
the
said
Duke
of
Sauoy
,
who
now
findeth
himselfe
to
be
the
prey
of
such
mishap
as
he
threatned
to
others
,
therein
resembling
the
Thrush
,
who
pearched
vpon
a
twigge
spreddeth
her
wings
,
and
so
is
taken
of
her selfe
:
or
the
Gyants
that
sought
to
sight
with
heauen
:
for
surely
this
battle
of
the
Giants
,
doth
represent
and
figure
vnto
no
other
but
these
that
will
rise
against
their
betters
,
as
they
did
against
Iupiter
,
according
to
the
wordes
of
the
Poet.
The
Gyants
men
say
,
would
enterprize
,
To
seaze
vpon
heauen
,
and
Iupiter
surprize
.
Now
will
I
bring
vnto
the
French
Theater
,
one
of
the
principall
actes
of
this
tragedie
.
The
King
considering
how
difficult
it
was
by
assault
to
come
néere
this
place
,
and
fearing
the
losse
of
the
meanest
of
his
Souldiers
,
sought
to
winne
those
in
the
Castle
by
composition
,
wherevpon
God
reading
in
his
heart
his
good
minde
and
affection
,
strengthened
him
more
and
more
against
his
enemies
.
Many
things
they
do
report
,
that
ministred
intelligence
to
the
king
:
but
I
doe
ground
my selfe
vpon
the
most
certaine
,
&
I
doe
beléeue
that
the
kings
iust
quarell
deliuered
him
this
place
,
as
the
lawfull
daughter
of
France
built
and
erected
by
our
Kings
:
for
,
as
say
the
auncient
Philosophers
:
All
things
must
returne
to
their
head
and
foundation
,
so
that
as
well
that
,
as
the
rest
,
being
of
France
,
All
shall
returne
to
France
.
In
the
end
the
Lord
of
Brandy
Captaine
of
the
said
Castle
,
finding
himselfe
vnable
to
resist
the
French
armie
,
much
lesse
the
courage
of
so
inuincible
and
magnanimious
a
king
:
withall
that
he
could
not
hould
,
as
being
surprized
by
the
kings
diligence
and
foresight
,
who
resembled
an
Alexander
or
Iulius
Caesar
,
who
both
enterprised
and
executed
in
manner
at
once
:
sought
to
growe
to
composition
as
himselfe
required
:
whereto
the
King
condiscended
,
mittigating
certaine
articles
that
went
beyond
the
lawes
of
warre
,
which
he
would
not
passe
.
This
composition
did
first
containe
a
truce
for
one
moneth
:
so
that
incase
the
Duke
of
Sauoy
did
not
come
to
succour
the
besieged
and
raise
the
siedge
from
before
the
place
,
the
said
lord
Brandys
promised
euen
with
hostages
,
to
deliuer
the
place
into
the
kings
hands
.
The
truce
drawing
to
expiration
,
toward
the
end
thereof
the
Duke
of
Sauoy
meaning
to
appeare
,
was
stopped
,
through
the
kings
discréet
foresight
,
who
sent
his
armie
to
the
passages
to
stop
the
said
Duke
of
Sauoy
,
from
all
accesse
.
Thus
he
being
repulsed
,
and
vnable
to
bring
any
succour
,
eyther
to
raise
the
siege
from
before
the
place
,
it
was
yéelded
vnder
the
most
happy
successe
of
the
most
Christian
&
most
magnanimious
King
,
according
to
the
graunt
that
the
Lorde
of
Brandy
had
obteined
from
his
Maiesty
.
Héervpon
the
king
,
the
16.
of
Nouemb.
1600.
sent
in
500.
French
souldiers
,
vnder
the
leading
of
the
Lord
of
Crequy
,
who
was
to
commaund
in
the
same
.
The
Lord
of
Brandy
,
according
to
an
article
by
the
King
granted
in
forme
of
composition
,
departed
:
Namely
with
the
life
of
the
said
Lord
of
Brandy
and
all
his
,
the
Souldiers
with
the
Drum
striking
vp
,
the
Ancient
displaide
,
the
Matche
lighted
,
the
Bullet
in
the
mouth
,
the
Musquets
and
Harquebuts
charged
,
with
bag
and
baggage
,
so
much
as
to
them
apperteyned
,
without
search
,
visitation
or
molestation
whatsoeuer
,
and
furnished
with
so
much
warlicke
prouision
as
they
could
well
carry
with
them
:
leauing
to
his
Maiesties
possession
,
the
fairest
and
strongest
place
in
all
Sauoy
,
with
80.
Canons
great
and
small
,
30000.
Bullets
,
and
500.
thousand
of
Powder
.
Thus
much
for
the
conquest
and
departure
from
the
Castle
of
Mont-millan
,
a
houlde
in
some
mens
opinion
vnpossible
to
be
gotten
:
yet
possible
to
our
great
King
,
being
armed
with
equitie
and
a
iust
quarrell
.
Now
therefore
,
O
yée
French
nation
,
yée
are
to
lift
vp
your
hands
to
heauen
in
signe
of
ioye
,
and
to
importunate
the
same
with
your
petitions
and
prayers
,
and
manifould
repetition
of
this
worde
with
the
Prophet
,
O
Lord
preserue
the
King
,
and
be
his
protector
.
Now
therefore
let
him
not
be
content
onely
to
mainteine
his
estate
and
people
in
peace
:
but
also
let
him
flourish
,
and
as
it
were
shoote
foorth
againe
the
auncient
Lawrell
branches
of
his
auncesters
.
Now
I
say
is
the
time
,
that
thou
O
France
maist
boast
,
that
thou
hast
not
onely
a
Themistocles
,
an
Alexander
,
or
a
Caesar
,
but
euen
all
thrée
comprized
in
the
sole
courage
of
this
great
Henry
the
fourth
.
Now
is
the
time
that
the
olde
prouerbe
may
be
verified
in
him
.
That
nothing
is
difficult
to
a
valiant
minde
:
Likewise
that
he
hath
clambered
to
the
rocke
of
vertue
:
and
that
he
hath
purchased
the
tipe
of
perfection
;
that
he
hath
out
faced
the
hazards
,
and
for
a
long
time
caryed
away
and
houlden
the
title
of
a
great
King
and
Captaine
,
whome
all
the
worlde
admireth
and
feareth
,
vnder
his
clemencie
,
curtesie
,
valour
and
benignity
.
God
graunt
that
France
may
long
enioy
so
fauourable
a
sunne-shine
,
to
beate
away
the
stormes
that
otherwise
are
likelie
to
fall
therevpon
:
likewise
that
his
life
,
his
goodnesse
,
and
valour
,
may
in
his
vertue
possesse
the
greatest
worldly
Empires
.
Amen
.

for
goodnesse
of
ayre
,
and
Arcadia
and
Olimpus
for
pleasures
.
Oh
how
greatly
and
that
iustly
,
will
the
nimphes
of
diuers
countries
enuie
you
that
were
not
able
to
diuert
the
magnaminious
Henry
from
your
loue
;
as
also
could
not
all
the
fained
countenances
of
flattery
,
or
the
continuall
subtilties
practised
by
diuers
to
hinder
this
marriage
,
that
was
first
concluded
in
heauen
,
and
afterward
approued
and
admired
by
men
.
O
most
valiant
king
,
inuincible
Prince
:
you
that
haue
so
many
yeares
most
gloriously
béene
the
burden
both
of
Ciuill
and
forraine
warres
,
&
so
fortunatly
laboured
and
swet
in
your
armour
:
beholde
,
this
is
that
fayre
Nimph
whome
your
famous
poets
,
replenished
with
diuine
fury
,
haue
of
long
foretould
to
be
reserued
in
heauen
for
you
,
as
the
recompence
,
of
your
labours
,
trauailes
and
heroycall
vertues
:
the
same
who
shall
quiet
your
minde
:
the
same
that
in
whose
discretions
and
fidelitie
,
you
shall
repose
your
most
inward
and
secret
cogitations
:
who
being
your
companion
in
your
kingdome
,
shall
also
accompany
you
in
your
fortunes
,
adding
to
your
glory
a
new
lustre
or
brightnesse
:
who
by
her
fruitfulnesse
shall
cure
the
auncient
woundes
of
your
flourishing
kingdome
This
is
that
beautifull
and
ritch
crowne
of
felicitie
and
contentation
,
that
was
to
enuiron
the
royall
head
,
which
for
a
last
ornament
hath
iustly
deserued
to
bee
ioyned
and
referred
to
both
your
royall
heads
.
Happye
therefore
is
that
soyle
that
hath
brought
foorth
so
noble
a
plant
:
neither
is
it
any
meruaile
that
others
doe
enuy
her
,
sithe
her
beauty
and
grace
by
vnusuall
meanes
doe
striue
among
them
.
Blessed
was
that
most
religious
and
most
vertuous
Mother
,
that
beautified
the
worlde
with
so
worthye
a
daughter
:
and
had
the
heauens
permitted
her
to
sée
that
which
at
this
day
we
doe
beholde
,
shée
would
most
willingly
haue
departed
this
life
.
Also
you
the
most
inuincible
Heros
,
or
great
Lordes
of
the
Imperiall
blond
of
Austrich
,
that
liue
most
happilye
in
the
Elisian
fields
,
behoulding
the
happy
offspring
,
the
yong
branch
of
your
most
worthy
line
,
who
borne
and
brought
vp
in
Italy
,
is
going
to
take
possession
of
the
French
Empire
:
Behold
your
glorie
shining
more
eminent
then
euer
heretofore
in
thrée
princes
,
in
these
dayes
discended
out
of
the
heauens
,
as
new
Angels
,
vnto
the
earth
:
who
by
their
Empire
and
consanguinitie
doe
imbrace
in
manner
the
whole
worlde
;
the
most
vertuous
Mary
,
the
most
religious
Margaret
,
and
the
most
discréet
Isabel
,
who
raigneth
in
Flanders
,
as
the
other
in
Spaine
.
You
glorious
&
magnimious
father
,
whome
the
heauens
haue
forbidden
to
sée
your
daughter
so
well
beloued
and
made
much
off
,
at
her
comming
to
be
mariageable
,
and
so
highly
married
:
looke
downe
from
the
place
where
thy
vertues
haue
placed
thée
,
and
beholde
this
new
Quéene
,
of
thy
glory
and
fulnesse
of
thy
felicitie
:
thou
shalt
sée
that
in
vertue
she
representeth
thy
auncesters
,
and
in
her
actions
,
thy
greatnesse
:
so
that
by
the
iust
law
of
nature
we
do
commonly
of
good
séede
looke
to
reape
good
fruite
.
Now
hath
the
worlde
most
vertuous
Quéene
,
had
so
much
spéech
of
you
,
not
onely
in
Italy
and
Germany
,
but
also
in
England
&
Spaine
,
with
equall
praise
and
enuie
,
that
your selfe
haue
béene
the
continuall
subiect
of
all
discourses
holden
within
these
ten
yeares
in
all
Imperiall
&
royall
courts
,
whensoeuer
they
mentioned
any
great
mariage
:
neither
doth
there
euen
at
this
day
,
any
one
passe
the
Alpes
,
that
part
Italy
and
France
,
but
with
great
meruaile
is
inquisitiue
,
euen
among
the
common
sort
,
saying
:
Is
it
I
pray
you
true
,
that
the
Princesse
Mary
is
so
fayre
,
as
it
is
saide
?
Is
she
so
gracious
as
the
voice
goeth
?
And
is
it
true
that
she
shall
be
our
Quéene
?
Oh
how
happye
for
vs
if
this
might
come
to
passe
:
so
should
we
thinke
the
losse
of
our
goods
and
most
precious
things
,
befallen
vs
in
these
our
ciuill
warres
almost
of
fortye
yeares
continuance
,
to
be
but
small
,
in
regarde
of
the
good
that
we
are
to
hope
for
in
so
beautifull
,
excellent
,
and
reuerent
a
mariage
?
and
this
only
,
not
a
woman
,
but
a
goddesse
,
should
suffice
to
recouer
all
our
calamities
.
This
your
honourable
fame
,
and
this
generall
desire
of
euery
man
,
runneth
ouer
the
Alpes
,
euen
vnto
the
vttermost
bounds
of
France
:
neither
is
there
Painter
or
Caruer
of
Images
,
but
with
all
industrie
,
as
of
their
Quéene
,
doe
indeuour
to
draw
your
image
and
portraiture
to
the
perfection
of
his
skill
.
There
is
not
so
meane
a
man
,
or
howsoeuer
poore
,
but
hath
it
in
his
house
:
and
as
in
time
passed
the
Image
of
Augustus
was
worshipped
in
priuate
houses
,
euen
so
it
was
at
this
day
.
Truly
it
is
a
great
matter
that
in
the
conceipts
of
infinite
persons
,
there
should
be
formed
first
the
Idea
of
some
great
matter
to
come
,
from
the
which
by
like
means
the
issue
should
be
taken
:
also
that
they
cannot
possibly
be
drawne
from
this
first
conceipt
,
vntill
the
occasion
be
fulfilled
,
which
afterward
comming
to
light
,
discouereth
the
trueth
of
the
vniuersall
iudgement
.
The
like
hath
hapned
in
you
,
most
vertuous
Mary
,
who
being
discended
from
kings
,
grafted
and
allied
to
great
kings
,
and
endued
with
royall
conditions
,
after
the
troublesome
decease
of
King
Henry
the
third
,
were
in
the
iudgement
of
all
men
marryed
to
the
valient
Henry
of
Bourbon
.
Such
a
iudgement
,
albeit
assessed
by
man
,
was
notwithstanding
,
the
worke
of
God
&
fatall
from
heauen
,
who
hauing
cut
off
all
&
so
great
hinderances
,
which
as
the
world
knoweth
,
séemed
insuperable
,
and
crossed
your
present
mariage
,
haue
now
knit
you
in
an
indissoluble
knot
,
to
the
inuincible
king
of
France
.
These
surely
are
miracles
,
workes
vnexpected
:
effects
whose
causes
are
vnknowne
to
vs
,
and
testimonies
that
God
hath
alwayes
a
care
of
kings
and
Princes
.
Well
may
you
thinke
that
neither
your
fathers
treasure
,
neither
the
nobility
of
your
blood
,
neither
your
great
estates
,
which
the
king
néedeth
not
:
but
the
only
fame
of
your
vertues
,
of
your
graces
,
of
your
Christian
pitty
,
&
of
your
beauty
,
did
induce
this
great
king
to
aske
you
in
mariage
,
who
had
no
want
of
swéete
and
flattering
Syrens
,
or
store
of
crafty
Cyrces
,
which
in
diuers
sorts
raised
loue
warres
against
him
,
and
laid
siege
to
ouercome
him
:
yet
he
firme
and
constant
,
as
a
rocke
against
the
billowes
and
waues
of
the
sea
,
would
neuer
change
,
neither
will
euer
alter
his
minde
:
much
lesse
now
,
when
hauing
séene
your
presence
to
surpasse
and
excéed
the
report
,
he
shal
be
forced
to
rest
entangled
in
your
gracious
lookes
:
&
his
most
generous
agents
,
that
so
laboured
you
for
his
wife
,
shall
now
reuerence
you
for
the
chiefest
and
greatest
Quéen
in
Christendome
,
as
you
are
,
and
be
content
to
surrender
all
their
desires
to
your
present
glory
.
Thus
haue
the
heauens
alwaies
,
and
in
time
fit
and
conuenient
,
béen
liberall
of
their
fauours
to
a
vertuous
and
innocent
Princesse
.
Yéeld
therfore
perpetuall
praise
to
God
,
and
thanke
the
wisdom
,
and
more
then
fatherly
piety
of
your
vnckle
Don
Ferdinando
the
great
duke
towards
you
.
Commend
the
goodnesse
and
exemplary
life
of
that
great
Christian
rather
in
déed
than
name
,
out
of
whose
mariage
yours
was
deuided
,
as
out
of
great
things
greater
are
formed
.
For
in
these
young
yeares
of
your
tender
age
,
you
were
by
them
so
brought
vp
and
trained
in
vertue
&
Christian
piety
,
that
the
most
Christian
king
,
mooued
and
enflamed
with
the
report
of
your
name
,
craued
you
in
mariage
.
Oh
happy
couple
,
O
most
glorious
mariages
,
O
memorable
coniunction
,
&
most
glorious
fruits
which
we
expect
from
you
?
I
do
already
behold
,
neither
am
I
deceiued
,
a
most
noble
line
issuing
from
you
which
spredding
the
French
name
ouer
the
whole
world
,
shall
plant
an
other
Gallo-gretia
,
an
other
Celtiberi●
in
the
farthest
parts
of
the
East
:
&
your selues
shall
hencefoorth
be
a
sufficient
ground
for
all
writers
,
grauers
and
Painters
to
employ
themselues
in
their
exercises
.
You
shall
minister
occasion
of
spéech
both
publick
&
priuate
,
both
in
deuoute
and
seculer
places
,
&
euery
man
still
will
talke
of
your
actions
,
of
your
maners
,
and
of
your
iestures
:
yea
many
times
will
they
say
:
Thus
said
great
Quéen
Mary
,
Thus
did
she
.
Thus
shall
you
liue
immortall
in
the
memory
of
mortall
men
,
with
the
true
titles
of
honor
&
glorie
,
neither
feined
nor
begged
.
Go
therfore
foorth
,
and
continue
your
iourney
most
Christian
Quéen
,
proud
of
the
most
worthy
troop
of
so
many
Princes
,
Princesses
,
&
most
noble
Kntghts
&
Gentlemen
that
waite
vpon
you
:
of
so
many
soules
which
accompany
you
with
their
vowes
&
prayers
vnto
God
for
your
prosperous
iourney
&
fruitfulnesse
,
but
farre
more
of
Angels
,
into
whose
tuition
our
good
God
hath
committed
you
.
And
you
most
happy
Tisi
that
carriest
so
great
a
Quéene
,
feare
thou
neither
tempests
nor
rocks
,
for
with
her
thou
carriest
her
good
fortune
.
You
go
into
a
realme
,
where
the
magnanimous
Katherin
your
kinswoman
by
the
father
,
did
so
gloriously
commaund
almost
for
the
space
of
forty
years
,
that
the
name
of
your
most
famous
family
,
borne
to
sway
the
greatest
Empires
,
is
holden
in
very
great
accompt
.
You
go
to
a
kingdome
established
in
a
Monarchy
,
&
at
the
same
time
in
Christianity
,
almost
thirtéen
hundred
yeares
ago
.
You
go
to
that
place
where
you
were
expected
,
desired
,
&
adored
,
before
yée
were
knowne
:
euen
you
,
whose
vertues
&
religion
were
heard
of
before
your
name
.
You
marie
the
most
gallant
warrior
that
euer
drew
sword
,
who
in
a
long
&
set
order
of
his
predecessors
of
the
selfe
nation
&
line
is
the
sixtie
&
fifth
.
What
farther
portion
of
humaine
felicitie
do
you
want
?
I
do
already
sée
all
the
shoares
of
Prouence
couered
with
people
of
all
ages
&
kinds
,
and
of
all
sorts
,
knéeling
before
you
&
saluting
you
as
their
Quéene
,
not
omitting
any
token
of
perfect
and
inward
mirthe
&
ioy
,
for
your
comming
.
What
shall
we
then
do
,
that
haue
nurssed
and
brought
you
vp
?
shall
we
by
our
slacknesse
séeme
to
enuie
Prouince
,
or
rather
all
France
in
their
ioy
?
shall
we
dislike
your
contentment
&
glory
?
oh
!
God
forbid
.
Nay
rather
as
in
the
beginning
of
my
spéech
I
aduised
you
,
most
vertuous
Tuscan
,
to
haue
your
recourse
to
sighes
&
sobs
,
and
sorrowfull
lamentations
for
her
departure
,
so
now
,
being
come
againe
to
my selfe
,
&
hauing
ouercome
sorrow
,
I
thinke
it
more
necessary
that
we
reioyce
with
her
,
to
whome
Italy
being
but
a
small
matter
,
the
king
of
heauen
hath
giuen
the
fairest
kingdom
,
togither
with
the
mightest
king
Christian
to
be
her
spouse
&
husband
,
because
her
glory
is
our
glory
.
Feare
not
that
her
far
iourney
shall
euer
blot
out
of
her
minde
the
loue
that
she
beareth
vs
,
or
suppresse
the
memorie
of
the
sacrifice
of
our
harrs
,
which
we
haue
already
so
long
since
offered
vnto
her
.
For
such
a
heauenly
substance
as
she
is
,
is
not
subiect
to
times
or
alterations
,
as
other
mortall
creatures
are
:
but
being
far
distant
from
her
countrie
,
she
will
resemble
the
Sunne
,
that
heateth
more
by
reflection
and
reuerberation
,
then
by
the
direct
beames
therof
.
And
you
also
,
most
noble
and
beautifull
Gentlewomen
,
sithe
your
sexe
is
by
this
rather
deuine
then
humaine
Marye
,
at
this
time
mounted
so
high
,
giue
yée
thankes
vnto
God
,
and
sounding
foorth
his
glorious
name
,
shewe
some
token
of
your
inwarde
ioye
,
and
where
your
wordes
cannot
,
let
it
bee
supplyed
by
your
affections
,
mindes
,
and
a
reuerend
silence
.
Print
in
your
hearts
her
liuelye
Image
;
séeke
to
imitate
her
in
her
vertues
and
manners
:
for
in
so
dooing
,
you
shall
shewe
no
lesse
signe
of
reuerence
and
loue
towards
her
,
then
if
you
should
continually
celebrate
her
with
Hymnes
and
prayses
.
Purposely
O
holy
Father
Clement
the
eight
,
haue
I
forborne
to
speake
of
you
vntill
the
end
of
my
discourse
,
to
the
end
my
wordes
may
remaine
the
more
liuelye
printed
in
the
hearts
of
the
Readers
.
But
what
shall
I
say
of
you
:
for
you
haue
shewed
that
things
acbompted
vnpossible
of
man
,
are
subiect
to
your
power
,
wisdom
&
felicity
.
In
a
few
words
you
did
both
begin
&
end
the
important
war
of
Ferrara
,
and
that
without
bloodshed
.
With
your
weapons
&
counsaile
you
haue
fréed
the
greatest
part
of
Hungary
from
the
tyrrannie
and
oppression
of
the
Turkes
,
you
haue
with
great
dexterity
concluded
and
setled
peace
so
long
desired
,
&
with
most
men
almost
dispaired
off
betwéen
the
two
most
mighty
kings
of
France
&
Spaine
.
The
last
you
haue
conioyned
in
marriage
with
the
most
religious
Margarit
of
Austrich
,
&
now
you
are
conioyning
of
this
man
with
the
most
glorious
Mary
of
Medicis
,
for
from
you
grew
the
beginning
,
and
without
you
our
endeuours
were
but
vaine
,
our
hopes
vaine
,
yea
they
were
but
dreames
&
vowes
.
It
was
you
,
yea
euen
you
,
that
began
this
worke
,
well
may
we
therefore
&
in
truth
,
name
you
both
in
your
thoughts
&
déeds
,
most
fortunate
and
happy
.
But
O
great
Ferdinand
,
with
what
full
and
conuenient
reward
shall
all
Italy
make
you
recompence
?
for
among
all
your
royall
actions
since
your
election
to
the
Tuscan
Empire
,
this
mariage
by
you
conceited
