King of Sweden 2 Charles borne 1550 first Duke of Sudermania Neriva and Vermelandia and afterwards also elected king of Sweden This king Iohn constantly maintained the same religion of the Augustane confession which his father had formerly professed although underhand he suffered his sonne Sigismund by his mother Katharine to be educated in the Romish religion which cost him no lesse then the losse of his kingdome of Sweden as hereafter shall appeare And the better to secure his subiects of his constant perseverance in the religion he professed he gave them his brother Charles Duke of Finland whom he loved dearely for a pledge or pawne that no innovation should therein be attempted whom he also appointed by his last will and testament during his sonnes absence to be gouernour of the whole kingdome This king dyed in the yeare 1592 19. of November 146 Sigismundus 246 Sigismundus sonne to the aforesaid Iohn being before during his fathers life time in 1590 beene designed and appointed king of Poland being during his fathers life time elected king of Poland where he also lived and reigned at the time of his fathers death was in the yeare 1599 crowned king of Sweden and the very day of the Epiphanie was appointed for this purpose Now there was in the kings company one Franciscus mala spina Bishop of Vrlia in Italy the Popes Nuncio whom the king and his followers much desired to performe the solemne rites of the Coronation and this Prelate was of opinion that if the States of Sweden had once given way to this beginning the Romish religion might more easily afterwards be againe introduced But against this with might and maine did Adamus Andracanus then Archbishop of Vpsalia oppose affirming that it was flat against the lawes and constitutions of the kingdome that any other but the Archbishop of Vpsalia should set the diademe royall upon his head and besides that he must now sweare to maintaine that religion now professed within the kingdome of Sweden according to the Augustane confession exhibited to Charles the fift Emperour professed by his grandfather Gustavus and his owne father Iohn the 3. and by a late synod holden at Vpsalia by the whole States of the kingdome confirmed and that he shall not assigne or grant any Church or Churches in any towne of Sweden to any other religion then that of the Augustane confession And further that during the time of his abode in Sweden he should be contented with the service performed within the private chapell of his owne palace Against this did oppose the peeres and Nobles of poland that accompanied the king howbeit the peeres of Sweden were resolute in their purpose insomuch that some dayes were thus spent in alteration At length about mid Ianuary seeing no remedy it was agreed that the bishop of Vpsalia should performe such rites as belonged to the coronation which was accordingly performed The oath of Sigismund Ericus Sparce also Chancellour of the kingdome administred unto the king his solemne oath he reciprocally answering him and promising first that he would maintaine iustice and truth within his kingdome and that he would punish and suppresse all iniustice and lying that he would doe iustice to all the Swedish nation as well rich as poore and that according to the lawes and statutes of the kingdome he should governe the same and that by the counsell and consent of his brother Prince Charles and the senate or counsell of the kingdome that hee shall consult with the natural inhabitants of the kingdome and not with strangers that hee shall bring no strangers within the realme that hee shall commit the castles and forts of the kingdome and the deserts of Vpsalia to none but the natiues of the countrey that he shall impose no new tribute or taxe upon the subiect unlesse in case of great necessitie for the defence of the kingdome in feare of any intestine commotion or sedition when the kings sonne or daughter is to be marryed when the king is to make any solemne perambulation thorow his whole kingdome or something for the reparation of the desarts of Vpsalia shall be required Moreover that he should confirme all priviledges and immunities heretofore granted to the Peeres of the land the whole people and the clergie thereof and that by all meanes possible he should procure peace and tranquillitie to all his subiects adding lastly this clause to the oath So God be good to my soule and body as I from my heart sweare to observe all the premisses After this was a solemn assembly of the whole States of the kingdome or a Parliament called at Stockeholme wherein was consulted of the government of the kingdome during the kings absence and divers good and wholesome lawes enacted In the moneth of Iuly next after the king departed againe into Poland But some few yeares after Abdication of king Sigismund hee was by the same States againe abdicated and quite reiected from ever having any right or interest in the government of the kingdome of Sweden and was in a Parliament holden at Stockeholme 1590. confirmed And againe in another Parliament holden at Lincopia 1600. as well he himselfe as all his issue and off-spring are for ever excluded from the succession to the kingdome of Sweden The reasons were diuers but especially for sending an army of strangers into the countrey quite contrary to his oath and promise the which if their plot had taken effect might have overthrowne the whole State besides the ruine of religion There were divers other causes published in print as the story mentions the which I have not as yet seene But withall in the

abdication of this king this cond●tion was inserted that if within sixe moneths after the finishing of the last Parliament holden at Lincopia this king Sigismund would send over into Sweden his son V●sladislaus to be governed and ruled by his Vncle prince Charles and to be educ●ted in the relligion then professed in the kingdome of Sweden that assoone as he were come to yeeres capable of government they would receive and acknowledge him for ever afterwards for their lawfull king and governour the which motion not being entertained nor yet any answer within this space returned their former decree of abdication of him and his seed was there solemnly ratified and confirmed Sigismund marryed first Anna daughter to Charles Archduke of Austria by whom hee had 1.
