THE
LAMENTABLE
DEATH
OF
CAPTAINE
Andrew
Shilling
,
who
was
slaine
by
the
Portingals
,
in
the
Persian
Gulph
.
I
Will
neither
talke
of
the
Roman
glory
,
nor
the
Roman
Vertues
,
which
made
that
glory
so
translucent
to
the
lookers
on
;
but
how
?
by
commemoration
of
hystory
,
and
publication
of
their
worthinesse
to
the
world
,
which
was
apparant
in
nothing
more
,
then
the
rewarding
of
well
deserving
men
,
or
remembring
them
to
posteritie
by
some
relation
,
or
other
;
thus
at
this
day
is
the
Common
Wealth
of
Venice
,
famosed
for
observing
the
rules
of
Ahashuerosh
,
in
keeping
the
custome
of
attention
to
his
owne
Chronicles
,
and
then
making
a
stop
at
Mordechaies
saving
his
life
,
asking
what
had
beene
done
to
the
man
of
so
great
deserving
,
and
when
answere
was
made
nothing
(
oh
blessed
be
those
times
,
wherein
Princes
will
demand
such
questions
,
and
Courtiers
be
so
honest
to
tell
the
truth
)
you
know
what
followed
?
and
my
heart
leaps
for
ioy
to
see
the
Emperour
so
gratious
:
From
hence
other
Common-Wealths
haue
,
or
should
haue
such
Registers
,
as
a
man
by
Alphabet
may
finde
out
the
memorable
actions
of
others
imployed
in
their
Countries
seruice
,
or
such
Antiquaries
as
shall
expose
the
Noble
Achieuments
of
heroijck
spirits
in
what
kinde
so
ever
.
As
for
their
interposition
?
that
would
haue
none
,
but
men
of
Honour
,
and
great
Captaines
nominated
,
I
am
sodden
in
my
question
,
how
came
they
to
be
so
Honourable
?
but
from
humbled
Auncestors
,
and
poore
beginnings
?
and
all
from
the
advancement
and
donation
of
Maiestick
Princes
?
Oh
God
?
he
,
that
saw
the
Danow
,
and
the
vast
mouth
of
Hister
,
gaping
vpon
the
blacke
Sea
:
hee
that
looked
vpon
Nilus
seven
gates
opening
themselues
vpon
the
Mediterranean
Sea
:
Hee
that
followeth
the
Rhine
in
his
triple
division
,
and
braving
the
Ocean
with
his
streames
,
and
also
saw
the
weake
swellings
vnder
the
Alpes
,
or
trickling
drops
come
out
of
the
Hils
,
would
wonder
at
the
progresse
of
these
Rivers
,
and
stand
amazed
to
conceiue
,
that
such
poore
springs
should
increase
to
such
huge
streames
:
thus
fareth
it
with
men
of
good
deserving
,
the
more
meane
,
and
obscure
,
the
more
glory
and
honour
to
make
their
vertue
extend
so
farre
,
as
true
notice
and
memory
of
their
actions
,
or
to
stepp
out
of
the
common
tract
of
drudging
and
despised
poverty
,
to
take
braver
steps
toward
renowne
,
and
riches
.
Therefore
I
embrace
Master
Hacklife
for
his
voyages
:
the
Travellers
of
our
time
for
their
iournals
:
the
Chronologers
for
their
inventories
:
the
writers
of
Story
,
for
their
records
of
memorable
men
,
and
all
the
lovers
of
their
Country
for
attempting
some
exploit
,
or
other
without
insulting
,
or
ostentation
:
and
yet
remarkable
to
future
ages
:
yea
I
protest
,
I
thanke
him
:
that
set
out
the
discourses
of
the
Iacob
and
Exchange
of
Bristow
,
with
their
Masters
and
Saylers
who
performed
wonders
,
ere
they
could
bring
the
ships
into
England
:
and
all
others
,
that
are
so
touched
with
truth
and
desire
not
to
let
passe
worthy
accidents
,
that
they
will
publish
honest
discourses
,
which
shall
affoord
example
,
or
precept
to
idle
sluggish
men
to
be
rowsed
vp
,
and
take
more
cheerefull
courses
to
doe
themselues
,
and
country
good
.
I
could
name
many
things
of
wonder
,
and
other
men
of
worth
:
but
that
I
determine
no
such
heapes
,
nor
to
raise
a
poore
Pamphlet
,
to
such
an
height
,
that
Envies
fingers
shall
attempt
to
pull
it
downe
to
rubbish
,
or
raging
feete
presume
to
trample
it
to
dirt
:
I
will
now
onely
speake
of
a
man
,
of
whom
I
am
acquainted
with
nothing
but
his
valour
,
and
skill
in
his
profession
,
yea
I
am
so
impartiall
,
that
not
knowing
any
friend
,
or
kindred
belonging
vnto
him
,
I
will
yet
out
of
meere
affection
to
vertue
,
and
desire
to
worke
vpon
the
governours
of
Factories
,
importune
them
to
remember
the
liuing
with
reward
,
and
the
dead
by
recompencing
their
widdowes
,
and
children
;
and
intreat
others
to
endevour
the
immitation
of
well
deservers
,
and
make
vse
of
Themistocles
schollership
,
who
was
so
inflamed
with
the
Trophes
of
Miltiades
,
that
he
never
desisted
,
till
he
had
got
the
reputation
of
a
great
Captaine
.
This
Andrew
Shilling
,
of
whom
I
would
speake
,
and
am
affrayd
I
shall
not
speake
sufficiently
,
came
from
all
the
degrees
of
Navall
imployment
to
be
master
of
a
ship
,
yea
,
of
many
ships
,
till
at
last
in
the
time
of
Sir
Thomas
Glover
,
whom
master
Clarke
brought
over
with
his
Lady
to
Constantinople
,
he
arrived
there
himselfe
with
a
ship
called
the
Angell
,
which
he
commanded
,
as
maister
Tiler
did
the
Dragon
.
There
was
also
maister
Bradshaw
at
Aleppo
,
Captaine
King
at
Xante
,
and
many
other
well
deserving
men
at
Scio
,
Smirna
,
and
al
the
ports
of
the
Levant
and
Arches
.
But
Shilling
(
without
impeachment
of
the
credit
of
others
(
was
so
liked
and
looked
vpon
with
the
iudicious
eyes
of
the
East
India
Company
,
that
they
imployed
him
thither
,
and
he
imployed
himselfe
so
well
,
and
so
honestly
,
that
he
dispatched
his
businesse
,
and
came
with
Sir
Thomas
Roe
(
who
had
beene
Ambassadour
to
the
great
Mogull
)
into
England
.
But
see
,
what
it
is
to
thriue
?
the
Marchants
mooving
in
their
proper
elements
for
obtaining
of
wealth
,
and
having
had
some
passages
of
discontentments
with
former
Captaines
,
thought
it
not
befitting
to
be
further
molested
,
and
therefore
once
againe
made
choice
of
master
Shilling
to
goe
another
voyage
,
to
which
(
after
his
accounts
were
rendred
)
he
so
addressed
himselfe
,
that
he
scarce
tarried
6
weeks
,
but
vndertooke
the
busines
.
And
in
a
ship
,
called
the
London
,
was
appointed
Admirall
of
that
Fleet
;
the
Vice
Admirall
was
the
Hart
:
There
were
also
two
other
ships
in
the
company
,
the
Eagle
and
the
Roe-buck
,
all
of
great
burthen
,
and
daringly
able
to
encounter
with
a
far
greater
number
.
Thus
shall
honest
men
be
imployed
,
and
vertue
can
not
be
poore
,
so
that
whether
it
was
their
iudgement
,
and
good
husbandry
,
or
his
wisedome
and
care
to
take
hold
of
opportunities
fore-top
,
he
thought
his
time
well
bestowed
in
growing
rich
,
and
they
thought
their
choice
very
happie
to
make
him
rich
,
and
so
vpon
reciprocall
agreement
,
he
tooke
the
Seas
for
Zarret
in
the
East
Indies
in
the
next
ships
,
that
were
readie
after
Sir
Thomas
Roe
came
into
England
:
and
after
many
changes
,
and
varietie
of
Accidents
,
boysterous
Seas
,
and
mounting
billowes
,
fearefull
stormes
,
and
some
wants
,
he
attained
the
desired
harbour
,
had
not
an
vndesired
mischance
flung
him
downe
into
the
harbour
of
death
:
For
he
perished
in
the
Sea
by
slaughter
,
which
was
the
more
lamentable
,
because
by
his
vallour
and
directions
his
Company
were
victors
,
and
both
brought
their
ships
to
take
in
their
lading
at
other
places
,
and
brought
them
without
losse
into
England
;
but
that
they
counted
the
losse
of
Shilling
to
exceed
halfe
the
benefit
in
their
best
fraighted
ship
:
but
how
this
came
to
passe
?
if
you
will
giue
me
leaue
to
write
out
a
worthy
mans
Letter
,
I
will
not
leaue
you
,
till
you
vnderstand
as
much
as
my selfe
.
After
a
long
and
tedious
passage
by
the
Ilands
,
watring
places
,
and
Cape
,
we
discovered
divers
ships
,
some
for
the
West
,
some
for
the
South
,
and
many
,
both
Flemmings
and
others
for
their
Country
:
those
which
were
remote
we
never
attended
,
such
as
came
within
kenning
had
friendly
salutations
,
and
many
times
when
we
encountred
with
some
friends
,
extraordinary
gusts
,
and
foggy
mists
did
divide
vs
,
which
being
vsuall
,
and
the
common
effect
of
long
iourneyes
,
we
neither
wondred
at
the
same
,
nor
tarried
for
further
encombrances
:
but
came
in
convenient
time
to
S.
Laurence
,
and
from
thence
keeping
the
common
road
,
we
arrived
happily
at
Zaretta
,
and
yet
I
cannot
call
it
so
,
because
of
some
disastrous
mischiefe
which
hapned
vnto
vs
,
and
although
it
was
a
common
thing
to
encounter
with
daily
mischances
,
from
tempests
,
enemies
,
and
Pyrats
,
which
were
all
as
easily
passed
over
,
as
suddenly
came
vpon
vs
:
yet
at
this
time
our
losse
and
griefe
was
the
greater
,
because
we
had
not
only
a
wealthy
ship
in
our
possession
,
but
a
valiant
Captaine
to
manage
our
affaires
,
both
which
we
lost
to
our
great
discomforts
,
when
the
malignity
of
time
was
overcome
with
industry
,
and
our
enemies
departed
from
vs
beaten
and
discomfited
.
Know
then
,
that
we
haue
not
had
long
trade
in
Persia
,
till
of
late
sending
euery
yeere
a
ship
,
we
acquainted
our selues
with
the
inhabitants
of
Iasques
in
the
Persian
Gulph
,
and
so
proceeded
with
them
in
orderly
traffique
,
both
to
their
satisfaction
,
&
enriching
our
Marchants
,
which
when
the
Portingalis
vnderstood
,
they
contrived
by
all
possible
meanes
to
intercept
our
iorneyes
,
which
they
performed
both
by
secret
plots
,
and
conspiracie
,
and
open
force
,
and
defiances
.
Concerning
the
plots
they
inferred
many
things
against
vs
to
the
people
,
and
kindled
a
kind
of
reciprocall
iealousie
betweene
vs
:
they
inticed
vs
ashore
,
vnder
cullour
of
viewing
stuffs
,
and
commodities
,
and
then
surprised
vs
,
taking
many
prisoners
by
divers
sleights
,
and
vsing
vs
vnkindly
,
when
they
had
vs
vnder
subiection
.
Concerning
their
force
and
power
,
they
alwayes
had
fiue
or
sixe
great
Gallions
,
and
shippes
of
warre
belonging
to
Spaine
,
&
imploied
for
the
securitie
of
these
places
,
and
at
this
instant
,
had
foure
well
appointed
ships
in
readines
,
who
lay
watching
for
our
Marchant
,
as
a
Hawke
houering
ouer
the
prey
,
and
so
resolved
to
take
it
,
whosoeuer
it
was
:
all
which
was
considered
of
vs
in
our
passage
,
so
that
when
we
were
within
40
,
or
50.
leagues
of
Zarret
a
Councell
of
warre
was
called
,
and
Andrew
Shilling
being
our
Admirall
,
and
Commaunder
of
our
small
Fleet
,
concluded
to
send
the
Hart
being
vice-Admirall
,
and
the
Eagle
to
Iasques
in
Persia
,
and
so
according
to
our
ceremonies
,
they
tooke
their
leaue
of
vs
,
before
we
came
to
Zarret
,
and
wee
went
directly
to
harbour
,
wher
we
might
haue
beene
welcommed
with
all
the
comforts
of
friendly
greetings
,
had
not
the
Marchants
vnderstood
,
what
we
had
done
,
but
apprehensiue
of
the
danger
,
they
would
not
suffer
vs
to
land
,
but
sent
vs
presently
after
the
other
to
assist
them
:
for
they
knewe
,
they
should
bee
fought
with
all
,
if
not
over-set
:
it
was
not
our
turnes
to
dispute
,
nor
had
we
any
other
part
to
play
but
obedience
,
and
so
wee
put
to
Sea
againe
,
taking
a
course
to
follow
our
shipps
.
But
we
had
not
beene
two
dayes
vnder
sayle
,
before
wee
encountred
a
Portingall
of
300.
tunne
,
which
at
first
made
good
semblance
of
opposition
,
till
wearied
with
our
shott
,
and
beaten
with
a
broad
side
,
shee
yeelded
her selfe
,
and
wee
tooke
possession
of
her
:
her
Marchandise
was
but
Raisons
,
and
Dates
,
and
fortie
two
Arabian
horses
:
yet
were
they
worth
store
of
money
,
and
might
haue
made
vs
a
saving
iourney
.
This
shipp
wee
carried
along
with
vs
thus
fraighted
,
and
sayled
a
fortnight
without
any
impeachment
,
or
adventure
,
till
at
last
by
Gods
eternall
providence
,
we
met
our
two
ships
returning
home
againe
to
Zarret
,
as
not
able
to
encounter
with
the
Portingals
,
whose
strength
and
preparation
they
reported
extraordinary
:
But
the
truth
is
,
they
were
very
rich
themselues
,
and
loath
to
loose
al
by
any
misadventure
,
which
they
might
escape
,
and
not
wilfully
run
into
:
and
yet
I
must
confesse
,
they
had
many
motiues
to
fight
with
them
,
&
daring
heartes
to
the
encounter
:
For
all
their
great
burthen
,
and
preparation
,
wel
?
they
did
not
?
but
returned
(
as
I
sayd
)
and
met
vs
at
Sea
,
discoursing
at
large
of
the
matter
,
and
describing
the
maner
of
the
Enemies
watches
,
and
how
brauely
and
warlike
they
were
appointed
:
When
Andrew
Shilling
had
heard
them
out
,
and
apprehended
the
vtmost
perill
,
hee
resolved
to
trie
his
Fortune
,
and
set
vpon
them
,
proiecting
,
that
if
the
worst
came
,
the
Portingall
ship
formerly
taken
,
should
be
fiered
,
and
thrust
to
them
,
which
when
some
interposed
,
as
pittying
the
losse
of
so
many
braue
horses
,
he
as
brauely
replyed
,
how
doe
they
then
in
the
wars
,
when
they
are
compelled
to
kill
their
prisoners
in
colde
blood
,
and
therefore
thinke
neither
of
scruple
,
or
nicety
,
but
let
vs
follow
the
businesse
,
we
take
in
hand
.
Thus
we
concluded
to
fight
,
and
so
befitting
our selues
,
approched
them
on
the
harbour
of
Iasques
on
a
satterday
,
being
about
the
17.
of
December
1620
and
within
eight
dayes
of
Christmas
:
and
so
without
more
adoe
we
came
vp
with
them
,
and
to
them
,
but
the
wind
being
contrary
,
we
could
not
fight
with
them
in
harbour
,
nor
they
durst
not
stirre
as
we
imagined
,
whervpon
we
desisted
for
that
time
,
&
woond
our selues
away
,
as
if
we
meant
not
to
fight
at
all
,
which
questionles
did
much
animate
them
,
and
made
them
suppose
,
that
our
former
desisting
and
recoyling
arose
out
of
suspition
of
their
greatnes
,
and
power
;
For
the
next
day
being
Sunday
,
they
came
out
of
the
road
,
and
in
a
braving
and
daring
maner
invited
vs
to
an
encounter
,
which
we
intertained
with
many
Navall
ceremonies
,
and
putting
out
our
cullours
of
defiance
,
with
the
adorning
our
ships
to
answere
their
proportion
of
Gallantnesse
,
we
made
a
braue
show
,
as
if
we
meant
to
intertaine
death
and
slaughter
with
mirth
and
iollitie
.
In
a
word
,
the
Drums
&
Trumpets
summon
vs
,
&
we
went
chearfully
to
the
busines
:
Our
fight
began
at
eight
of
the
clocke
in
the
morning
,
and
continued
to
night
,
when
the
darknes
tooke
either
pitty
vpon
vs
,
or
by
way
of
opposition
stomached
our
light
:
For
many
times
we
made
fire
workes
,
&
shot
flaming
arrowes
into
their
ships
,
we
also
threw
burning
balls
,
and
sent
cases
full
of
stones
,
which
killed
their
men
without
mercy
:
we
also
shot
off
their
Admiralls
rudder
,
that
they
were
enforest
to
come
to
Anchor
,
and
repaire
their
losses
,
which
as
it
should
seeme
were
very
great
,
and
so
the
fight
continued
fearefully
betweene
vs
.
In
a
word
,
such
was
the
terror
and
dangerous
encounter
,
that
although
Captaine
Shilling
our
Admirall
with
all
the
good
words
,
and
better
actions
,
which
belonged
to
a
principall
commander
,
still
comforted
vs
,
and
as
farre
as
men
might
coniecture
,
warranted
our
prevailing
at
this
time
:
yet
Captaine
Best
his
sonne
,
whom
they
call
Generall
in
the
East
Indies
,
taking
hold
of
our
first
determination
to
set
fire
on
the
Portingall
in
our
possession
,
with
the
horses
,
put
it
presently
in
practise
,
when
there
was
neither
reason
nor
cause
,
and
when
he
was
furthest
from
all
perill
,
and
mischiefe
:
as
we
thought
we
had
indeed
fitted
and
appointed
her
to
fire
,
but
how
?
in
case
of
necessitie
,
which
as
yet
came
not
vpon
vs
,
nor
was
there
any
likelihood
more
then
the
chance
of
encounters
,
and
fortune
of
warre
to
desparire
of
prevailing
.
Well
;
he
tooke
out
as
many
things
as
he
thought
convenient
,
leaving
most
part
of
the
Dates
and
Raisons
in
her
,
and
leaving
vs
in
kinde
of
confusion
to
see
so
many
goodly
horses
perish
in
the
raging
Sea
,
and
so
to
all
our
griefes
she
was
fired
,
and
thrust
vp
to
strike
amongst
the
Portingalls
,
with
supposition
either
to
destroy
them
,
or
dissipate
them
:
But
alas
all
was
in
vaine
,
for
either
the
busines
was
ill
managed
,
or
the
Wind
slacked
her
course
,
or
something
or
other
was
amisse
;
for
she
went
not
forward
,
but
perished
in
her
flames
and
combustion
before
vs
all
,
effecting
no
more
good
,
then
a
generall
casting
vp
the
account
of
the
Accident
,
wherevnto
life
is
subiect
,
and
a
particular
examination
of
our
owne
estates
,
which
might
be
subiect
to
the
same
inconveniences
.
But
to
goe
forward
.
I
must
needs
confesse
that
if
it
had
pleased
the
Captaine
,
seeing
he
was
so
resolved
,
he
might
haue
come
nearer
and
thrust
her
vp
more
closer
vpon
them
to
their
preiudice
,
and
firing
indeed
;
but
failing
,
and
thus
disappointed
,
our
fight
continued
longer
,
and
(
as
I
said
)
the
very
night
tooke
pittie
vpon
vs
,
and
divided
vs
,
in
which
darknes
they
went
away
into
harbour
,
and
being
wonderfully
torne
with
our
shot
,
and
dismembred
with
crosse
barres
,
thought
it
best
to
repaire
their
ships
againe
,
and
provide
more
men
to
set
vpon
vs
afresh
.
The
truth
is
,
we
let
them
alone
,
and
gaue
way
to
their
good
husbandry
,
anchoring
our selues
in
harbour
,
and
preparing
to
goe
about
our
marchandice
,
and
set
forward
our
traffique
.
But
on
a
sudden
,
within
3.
or
4.
dayes
vnexpected
,
they
came
out
of
the
road
,
&
braved
vs
againe
,
which
when
our
Captaine
Shilling
perceived
,
we
also
perceived
in
him
,
(
which
we
never
did
before
)
very
fignes
of
discontent
,
as
if
they
were
presagers
of
some
mischiefe
to
follow
;
For
though
the
valiant
man
was
vndaunted
,
yet
as
it
happens
in
such
cases
of
suspition
,
anger
,
and
revenge
,
he
thus
vented
out
his
griefe
,
as
a
Complainant
against
the
malignitie
of
time
,
and
over-sights
of
encounters
.
I
see
(
quoth
he
(
that
in
al
expeditions
opportunity
is
not
to
be
neglected
,
but
shee
taketh
it
in
scorne
,
that
when
she
openeth
her
lap
,
we
refuse
her
bounty
and
kindnes
:
so
that
if
we
had
followed
our
fortune
last
day
,
and
not
suffered
these
men
to
haue
breathed
in
the
meditation
of
revenge
,
&
gone
foreward
in
their
reparations
,
wee
had
ended
the
busines
:
but
now
they
haue
not
onely
got
new
breath
,
but
new
courages
,
and
will
returne
vpon
vs
with
greater
fury
and
mischiefe
:
Besides
there
are
severall
vertues
,
which
are
vnseasonable
in
their
practise
,
such
as
wee
call
pitty
,
commiseration
,
and
patience
,
all
good
for
nothing
in
these
warlike
trials
,
and
among
pollitick
and
cruel
adversaries
,
but
to
draw
on
heavier
burthens
,
and
make
vs
subiect
to
fearefull
inconveniences
;
wherefore
if
I
liue
,
I
will
never
bee
guilty
of
this
errour
againe
,
and
if
I
dye
,
I
leaue
it
to
you
all
as
a
principle
,
neuer
to
slacke
you
hand
,
if
you
finde
the
enemy
staggering
,
neuer
to
giue
ouer
,
till
you
haue
made
a
faire
Composition
,
or
dispatched
the
busines
.
But
come
?
seeing
we
must
fight
,
let
vs
doe
it
couragiously
?
that
these
Portingals
(
with
many
presidents
of
former
times
)
may
confesse
,
they
haue
met
with
English-men
.
After
this
briefe
and
pithy
complaint
,
we
prepared
our selues
,
and
on
Childermas
day
our
Admirall
came
and
anchored
by
their
sides
,
whom
the
Vice-Admirall
followed
,
&
did
the
like
:
the
other
two
shipps
being
smaller
,
&
of
weaker
sayle
,
the
winde
smaly
helping
them
,
could
not
come
foreward
,
&
so
we
were
compelled
with
the
London
,
and
the
Hart
to
make
a
triall
with
al
the
4.
great
Portingals
,
which
we
did
in
such
a
maner
,
that
I
protest
(
if
I
might
scape
vaine
glory
or
partialitie
)
neuer
was
such
a
fight
so
wel
begun
,
nor
better
continued
;
for
we
tore
them
all
to
peices
,
and
kild
so
many
men
,
that
they
could
scarce
get
away
from
vs
,
nor
had
escaped
perishing
all
,
if
mischance
had
not
checked
our
forwardnes
,
and
moderated
our
insulting
with
the
greatest
losse
,
that
we
thought
we
could
receiue
;
for
in
the
midst
of
the
conflict
,
while
we
were
wrapped
in
smoake
,
and
sweating
in
blood
,
a
crosse
shot
crost
vs
all
,
and
slue
our
Captaine
:
yea
he
perished
in
the
midst
of
our
triumphs
,
when
wee
had
but
sixe
men
slaine
,
and
very
few
to
speake
of
,
hurt
.
Andrew
Shilling
perished
,
when
we
by
his
valour
prospred
,
and
thought
to
haue
gone
cleere
away
with
the
Victory
.
Andrew
Shilling
perished
to
our
disconsolation
,
&
abatement
of
ioy
when
we
thought
of
nothing
but
prevailing
:
but
Wisedome
was
at
last
predominant
,
and
in
remediles
cases
we
cast
vp
another
account
of
reclaiming
our selues
,
and
tempring
the
sorrow
,
so
that
we
were
once
againe
divided
,
and
the
Portingalls
most
gladly
and
cunningly
departed
from
vs
,
and
when
they
were
out
of
sight
we
gaue
God
the
prayse
for
our
deliverance
,
and
divided
the
sorrow
for
our
Captaines
losse
amongst
vs
,
not
a
man
but
bemoaned
his
death
;
not
a
man
but
participated
with
his
vertues
;
not
a
man
but
was
the
better
for
his
instructions
;
not
a
man
but
wondred
at
his
experience
and
skill
in
Navigation
;
not
a
man
but
lamented
his
vntimely
death
;
not
a
man
but
extolled
his
timely
worthinesse
,
and
so
with
one
consent
,
he
was
buried
with
all
the
Ceremonies
of
a
Generall
,
and
cast
out
of
sight
for
feare
of
troubling
vs
further
,
and
raising
new
extasies
to
no
purpose
.
This
second
encounter
was
more
formidable
then
the
first
,
and
continued
longer
,
but
ended
(
thanks
be
to
God
)
as
you
haue
heard
to
our
small
detriment
at
this
time
,
whereby
we
went
forward
in
our
busines
,
and
were
well-commed
to
Iasques
in
Persia
to
advance
our
traffique
.
But
how
many
were
slaine
of
our
enemies
we
know
not
,
onely
we
know
,
their
ships
were
made
vnserviceable
for
the
present
,
and
report
(
when
we
were
setled
in
harbour
)
assured

that

This
Letter
was
written
from
Swallo
Road
,
neere
Zarret
the
20.
of
November
,
1621.
and
brought
into
England
with
the
last
shipps
,
that
came
in
the
beginning
of
Iune
,
to
the
comforting
of
many
sad
hearts
,
&
recouering
the
staggering
opinion
of
the
East
Indiaes
companies
thriuing
,
from
whence
I
protest
I
haue
extracted
nothing
but
the
truth
,
and
if
I
by
way
of
illustration
or
amplification
,
there
are
some
things
added
in
the
prayse

Oh
,
let
vertue
haue
this
passage
amongst
you

it
is
a
glory
to
all
Common-wealths

neither
to
obscure
her

as
she
is
of
a
durable
essence

existence

to
be
forgetfull
