Don Carlos Coloma the Spanish Ambassadour laid the first stone for a Chappell which was to be built for the Infanta at the Princes Pallace at Saint James which building was advanced with all expedition to the great regreet of many Protestants and to the contentment of most Roman Catholiques to see a Catholique Church built in the Metropoliticall City of the Realme by publike authority after one hundred yeeres space during which they did nothing else but destroy such Churches All Catholiques that were Prisoners throughout England Ireland and Scotland were released all Pursevants and Informers established to search for apprehend and prosecute the Catholiques were prohibited to attempt any thing against them They had all free ingresse into and egresse out of the Realme without taking the Oath of Supremacy having onely a passe-port They resorted freely to heare Masse at the Spanish Ambassadours Chappell in so great number and so publikely that they were sometimes two or three thousand persons so the French Mercury truly records Besides the Papists grew so insolent that they had open Masses and Sermons in divers private houses about London and elswhere Among others their f See M.

Pope Gregory the 15. soone after the dispensation granted departed this life which the Spaniards promised should be no remora to the match as is evident by this letter of the Earle of Bristoll to Mr. Francis Cottington then Secretary to the Prince GOOD Mr Secretary yesterday Master Clerke went from he●ce but I wrote not by him neither have I now much to tell you Especially ●or that I am in doubt whether these letters will finde you in England or not Yesterday we had the ●●wes of the Popes death but this King out of his ow●e mouth and the Co●de de Olivares and the Nuntio do assure the Prince that this accident will neither mak● alteration ●or delay in his ●usines they being all of Opinion that it will be dispatched by the Dean of the Cardinalls the Conclave The Insanta is now by all the Court and by this Kings approbation called la Princessa d● Inglaterra and she m●kes not nice to take it upon he● She now commeth Pu●liquely to th● Commody and ●●●teth by the Queene and I am told that as soone as two papers which are already drawne are signed by the King and Prince they will giue her the right hand of the Queene com a knefreda which I conceive the Prince will not be displeased withall for by that meanes it will ●all out that the Prince and his Mistresse will ever sit together This day Don Fernando de Giron invited my Lord Duke my selfe and Sir Walter Ashton to di●ner where we were accompanied by Don Augustin ●exa the Marquesse of Montes Cla●os and the Conde de Gund●mar and conceive we shall againe fall to good ●ell●wship You have heard that the Marquesse of Montesclaros is made President 〈◊〉 Hasi●nda the other in the ●unta began to speake invectively and against the match thereupon the King the same

After this about the 25. of October King Iames writ a private Letter with his own hand to the Earl of Bristoll which Secretary Calvert sent away with all speed and secrecy by Master Gage to limit the Spaniard unto two moneths to gaine the Popes Resolution and Dispensation from Rome as is evident by the Copy of this Secretaries Letter to the Earle from St. Martens-lane Octob. 26. 1622. The King of Spaine hereupon deludes King Iames with faire dilatory promises as if he intended the hastening of the Marriage but how farre he was from any such reall intention is evident by this Letter of his to his grand favourite Conde of Olivares dated the fifth of Novemb. 1622. found among the Lord Cottingtons papers THe King my Father declared at his death that his intent never was to marry my Sister the Infanta Donna Maria with the Prince of Wales NOTE which your Uncle Don Baltazar understood and so treated this March ever with intention to delay it notwithstanding it is now so farre advanced that considering all the aversnesse unto it of the Infanta it is time to seeke some meanes to divert the Treaty which I would have you find out and I will make it good whatsoever it be but in all other things procure the satisfaction of the King of Great Brittaine who hath deserved much and it shall content me so that it be not in the Ma●ch To colour the matter the better he pretended no Dispensation would be granted at Rome unlesse the Pope received further satisfaction in the time of the Childrens education by the Mother and point of Ecclesiasticall persons exemption from all secular jurisdiction to remove with obstructions King Iames was content to comply in these particulars further then he had done before as His ensuing Letter to the Earl of Bristoll clearly demonstrates which Letter was drawne and written for his Majesties signature by Master now Lord Cottington theu Secretary to the Prince To the Earle of Bristoll RIght Trusty c. We have seene your Letters of the 21.

Novemb. 1622. The King of Spaine after many delatories and much pressing by King Iames and his Ambassadour for a finall answer to his demands touching the Pala●mate and Match on the 12. of Decemb. 1622. returned this Answer in writing The Answer appointed by his Majesty to be given unto the Earle of Bristoll Extraordinary Ambassadour from the King of Great Brittaine touching those things which he hath represented from the said King unto his Majesty concerning the Marriage now in Treaty and the businesse of the Palatin●te is this which followeth Touching the Marriage THat his Majesty hath given order that his resolution be delivered unto him in writing and therein as the Earle of Bristoll himselfe hath seene hath endeavoured what he may to conforme himselfe with that which the King of Great Brittaine hath answered unto the Popes propositions so desirous hath his Majesty been from the beginning to overcome all difficulties that might hinder this Vnion that both here and at Rome he hath not slacked

and perhaps the House doth expect some such submission and will be mollified or quickned by it neverthelesse I submit it to better judgement and the life and death of it are indifferent to me and therefore I leave it entirely to your ordering I feare my arrears in the Exchequer and the houshold will be slowly paid having heard that the House of Commons have ordered that his Majesty shal be moved for the stopping of pensions due to Master Jerma●e Sir John Sucklin or my selfe but Gods will be done Your c. Francis Windebanke Paris 2. Aug. 1641. SIR c. YOU say nothing of the motion made in the House of Commons that the King should be moved to with-hold the monies he is pleased to allow Master Secretary You will receive from my Unckle a Petition which I cannot but hope will produce some good effect NOTE if it be accompanied with some hearty recommendation from the King which must be done one of th●se foure wayes either by his Majesties going to the House sending for the House to him sending for the Speaker alone or by commanding the Counsellours of the Hous● to recommend it in his name each of these foure wayes as they stand being more effectuall then the other but the latter must be done of necessity though any of the former wayes be taken for their effectuall speaking in the businesse will be of good use I doe not understand what there can be objected against the delivery of the Petition being so modest since if it doe not succeed so well as to obtaine an absolute end of the businesse yet this benefit we cannot saile of by it that he will discover so much of their inclination as to give a judgement thereupon what we are like to trust to NOTE I am confident you will find all assistance from the Queen and so God speed it when once it is delivered it must be solicited as heartily as recommended for the least flacknesse in the solicitation of it will much prejudice the businesse his Majesty appearing in it onely at the delivery of the Petition will not be sufficient but ●e must be pleased to continue his favour till it be brought to some resolution c. Sir Your c. Ro. Read Paris 2. Aug. 1641. SIR I Perswade my selfe the conjuncture is now proper for it the Petition since this late occasion hath begotten so good an intelligence between the Queen and both Houses NOTE and besides it is said they are upon Counsels in favour of the Roman Cath●liques c. Sir your c. Ro. Read Paris 9. Aug. 1641. TOm c. I returned you the Petition altered though not altogether in those words that his Majesty directed NOTE being of opinion with submission neverthelesse to better judgement that the House will never be a meanes for any pardon or abolition but if they will give way to it I can expect no more and I have reason to beleeve there will be n● impediment And for that which was formerly inserted that I desired it of them it could not well beare other sense then that I ●●aved their consents or what was in them to grant without which I knew it could not be and with which it was probable there would be no difficulty it being likewise to be pres●●●ed I could not be so ignorant in a businesse so publike and obvio●s as to thinke the power of abolition could rest onely in them but onely that their liking was necessarily to be precedent to others Howsoever I am exceeding glad the Petition was not presented and doe bold his Majesties opinion full of wisdom● and favour to me NOTE in stirring the businesse as little as may be and therefore though I send backe the Petition I wish it should be laid by and not made use of at all untill expresse order from me For the Motion you intended to make for b b To 〈…〉 a Ship I wish it had been forborne such a favour from his Majesty if he should have granted it being likely to have raised more noise and brought more prejudice upon his Majesty Yours c.
