answered that neither heauen nor earth God nor man should take her kingdome from her the third and last question was to know the number of her children and their following fortunes to this they answered that from her boodie should spring seauen braunches whose tops should reach to heauen These answers to this accursed womans eares came more ioyfull then the reports of pardon to a condemned man and more pleasing to her heart then for a moorish slaue from the cheaned gaily to be aduan'st vnto a kingdome therefore with a setied trust and assurauce of the spanish crowne and gouernment litle mistrusting the flie defeates of these misticall answeres with all conuenient speed prouided a chamber wherein she might performe her damned condition and deliuer vp her husbands body to the gluttony of hell therefore ascending to the top of her pallace into a marble tower she caused her husbands bodie to be bronght thether and after commaunded the walles to be hung round about with blacke mourning cloth to signifie her damned and fatall enterprise this being done she purposed to deuide the seruice of her seauen bauquets into seauen seuerall daies and in this manner were they accomplished the first day vppon a table of blacke Ebony in two pron plates or platters she set the two legs of her vnhappy husband which so often in his good daies of fortune bestride the warlike palfrey in the honour of his country the second day vppon the same Ebony table she placed his fine wd thighes in two vessels of lead whose blew veignes signified the force strength of manhood the third day the likewise brought to the table his secret partes and bowels in a vessell of tin or pewter wherein lay the seed of procreation the fourth day she furnished the same table in a charger of brasse with the belly and inward partes of his body which had so often bene cherisht with delicious and princely banquets the fift day in like manner in a vessell of compounded mettle named alchemye she brought to the table his manly breast which as a tower had many yeares clos'd vp his heart the sixt day in a platier of fine siluer she serued in the two arms of her husband which whilst vertue gouernd held both thescepter of peace and the sword of warre the seauenth and last day in a vessell of pure gould being the dearest and richest seruice she brought in his head which had so often bene ornafied with an imperiall diadem centaining a tongue that could in former times haue giuen thée life or death all these vnnaturall seruises by the hands of a woluish natured woman Being no sooner finished the fatall table auosded but both heauen and earth land sea as it were gaue echoes of terror hell it selfe seemed to tremble and spewed vp corrupted sauors from her fiery furnaces cast abroad such sparckling flames the euen the imbrodered vestures beset with goldsmiths workmanship so gorgeously beautifing her bodie were fiered and she golden traniels of her haire burnd from her head notwithstanding all this nothing amazed the shameles minde of Miracola nor any way affrighted her with the teror of heauens wrath for the thirst of promotiō so bewitched her ambitious pride so inchanted her and the desire of a diadem so imboldned her that thinking both crown and kingdom her asurance for euer by the false promises of hel imediately vpon this same tower or chāber wher she had thus sacrificed her husbands body she caused certaine characters or letters to be ingrauen vpon the marble walles concerning her perpetuall happiness The first superscription was to this effect following Vpon this earth Miracola shalliue till the seauen daies of the weeke be forgotten which she thought was foreuer The second superscription was That neither heauen nor earth God nor man should take her kingdome from her The third That her children like seauen braunches should reach to heauen These three promises she regarded as Oracles and beleeued that through them her earthly happines should neuer end but suddainely this violent ioy turned into an extreame griefe for as she stood contemplating of these neuer-ceasing delights there entred inuisiblie into the chamber one of the blackepotentates of hell and vnder euery one of these superscriptions ingraued these significations Vnder the first this The seauen daies of the weeke be thy seauen daughters now breeding in thy wombe who no sooner ripe but rotten no sooner borne but forgoten Vnder the second Though neither heauen nor earth God nor man will take the kingdome from thee yet hel and the deuill shall Vnder the third The seauen braunches whose tops should reach to heauen be the seauen deadly sinnes that shall spring from thy wombe whose bloody enterprises and blacke deedes shall clime heauen for an eternall Iudgement These dismall and ominous reuelations were no sooner ceazed vppon by the eyes of this accursed Queene but all the partes of her body trembled with feare not a member but the terror thereof distempered now feare of Gods vengeance by little and little entred into her heart and the quiuering thought of hells damnation filld her bosome full of dispaire without all hope of saluation she inclos'd herselfe in the centorie of the earth in a caus where neither light of sunne nor the glimmering brightnes of the moone might discend nor any voice of man or other creature could yeeld her comfort thus excluding her selfe from all worldly solaces committing the gouernment of hir kongdome to Scicophants and carelesse guiders she wasted away the time of ten moneths in this dark and solitarie dungeon both day and night making these or such like wofell lamentations Oh Nature quoth she thou nurse of euery liuing thing why did it not thou end me in my first beginning why did my mothers wombe bring to light this my damned soule why did my cradle rock this my body of perdition to so many lullabies I wish my nurses pappe had peelded nought but venomed poyson and that my

of the Land brought to the court in hope that after her mothers decease by the decree of frowning chaunce lying then in marnelous calamities shee would proue a gratious and good queene but it happened farre otherwise for being now on the way of preferment and cluning vp the steps of imperiall dignitie a kinde of commaunding pride so bewitched her that she esteemd her selfe aboue womans kinde and that nature had framd her of no earthly substance but rather of the pure mould of celestiall angels her crimson coloured cheekes whereon the glory of beautie seemd to shine her iuory front or forehead where art and nature stroue for supremasie and her bright twinckling eyes within whose pretty balls the God of loue seemd to shew himselfe were al in her proved imaginations too pretious for the sun to shine vppon and her selfe with al other partes of her bodie the most pure workmanship of natures experience she held too angel like to tread vpon the grose earth therefore she the more to aduance her great pride caused a chariot of christal glasse to be made close framed on al sides to keepe both winters blastes and sommers heat from her delicate bodie the which chariot by skilfull art was wasted vp and downe by artificial meanes deuised mans inuention her foode was the purest restoroties of the earth both of beastes birds fowles and fishes and the onely quintisence of nourishments to maintaine life her pleasures were the musique and singing voices of young virgins the daughters of noble men and knights her garments were of the finest Medean silkes weau'd vpon siluer loomes by Arabian queenes Thus pomp and pride eleuating her minde as it were beyond the ambition of Lucifer who sought to pull God out of heauen and esteemd no man of that royall birth worthy to match with her in miriage Emperors and kings she accounted but as slaues to fortune and the onely subie as to variable chaunce many high personages enterprizd the conquest of her loue but reaped the fruites of deniall and disgrace and were not suffered that asuming sauour as once to kisse her prowd hand yet al last three bould aduenturous gallants hearing her thūdring fame rumord about the world attempted to purchace the cōquest of this prize that neither Emperours nor kings could obtaine The first was a Soldier whose valor and matchles thinarie vpon the wings of fame was carried by and down the earth as far as euer the golden eie of heauen hath shewen his glistering brightnesse The second was a Scholler whose Academick skill in all the seauen liberall sciences might challenge in all princes courts the honours of the golden tongue The third and last was a marchant whose trauelles by sea round about the earth compassing seauen times the equinoctiall line purchased such wealth as builded one of the greatest citties in the world These three times honored champions comming before this prowd Ladie of the earth who sitting then like a goddesse vpon the tribunall seat of majestie began their loues embassage in this manner Deuine Sola saide the Soldier thou miracle of woman kinde at whose birth good fortune daunced this bodie of mine is become thy humble vassell and now yeelds all his purchast honours at thy gracious feete I that by warre haue foragd kingdomes vnpeopled countries and made whole fields flowing with blood wil now at thy roial commaund kisse the sacred plot of ground where thy celestiall foote but stangeth I that haue dyed the flinty pauements of conquered cities with the purple goare of humaine carkasses and fed my pampered steedes with the flesh of man am now subiected to thy thrice glorious person and challendge to my selfe no other happines but one smiling glaunce from thy angellicall eyes graunt then thy loue thou Iewell of nature and let my soule feed vpon the 〈◊〉 pines that proceedes from the censure of thy blessed tongue in condiscending to my loue legions of aduenturous knights shall fill thy pallace with renowne and by their knightly prowesse fetch conquered kings from al the parts of the world to one obeysance to thy imperiall greatnesse And in louing me great princesse qd the scholler the vnsearched studies of all sciences shall be at thy commaund the pleasures of musique the helpes of phisicke the eloquence of tongues the secrets of starres the natures of nations and moreouer the sweet consolation of deuine meditations shal eleuate thy soule to the shining paradice of vnspeakeable blessednes then make a scholler happy in thy lone sweet Sola in whose deepe vnderstanding lye the secrets both of aire earth and sea And in louing me thou paragon of beawtie quoth the marchant the far fetcht treasures of rich India the gould of Arabia and the vnualued carbuncles of goulen Ganges aboundantly shall fall into thy lap I haue measured the earth seauen times about and vpon the sea spread such a fleete of ships and rich Argoses which like to a toplesse forrest seemd to hide heauen all these for thee and for thy loue shal sayle to those nations where no sunne shines nor moone giues light to those kingdomes where one night continues sixe months and their purchase by long trauel those inestimable valued vestures which had wont to beawtifie the prowd queenes of Asia bamasks goalden tissues and robes of siluer shall be as common to thy delights as rich scarlets were to the princes of Iudea in louing me thou shalt be atended with more roilties then king Salomon was in all his pompe these and such like were the proffered curtesies of these three gallant gentlemen euery one hoping thereby to obtaine the good will of this prowd Ladie who was as far from kind acceptance of their seruices as the starued Lionesse is from merry when the ceazeth vpon the innocent lambe therefore rething no other councellors but pride and ambition the onely nurses of confusion without any further consideration made them this answere That man high spirited gentlemen that in my bed shall set his foote and crop the bud of my virginitie the which I haue denied vnto kinges shall win the same grace with a seuere taske or knightly aduenture First to you thou vndaunted knight of war if thou canst either by policy or manhood either wit or conquest of thy sword gaine and purchase me a bed that shall be fild with a softer substance then the soft downe that grows vppon the milke white swans backe thou shalt inioy my loue and I will onley be thy wife Likewise to thee thou scholler like man of art if by thy learning or any other deep mistery thou cāst frame me a fountaine that shall containe a purer water then that which raines from heauen or that which springs from the cundets of the earth thou shalt gaine my loue and I will be onely thy wife Lastly to thee thou noble adventurous marchāt if thou by any trauaile either by land or sea canst finde me a bread that shall be better then that of wheat thou shalt haue my loue and
I will onely be thy wife Vpon these strict conditions or rather Nerculian labours these three gallants without any further reply departed each one his seurall way striuing which of them should accomplish the taske proposed vnto them where we will leaue them for a while trauailing straunge cuntries dilligently seeking to bring these their straunge labours to an end and speake of the woful miseries that the heauen aflicted this prowd Ladie withall Many months passed ouer the head of this hated woman after their departures and as she grew in age so did her pride increase in somuch that for the mainteinance of her vaine beautie she had atending vppon her a hundred of faire and yong wiues that once euerie day with the milke of their breasts fild a cestern of fine gould with the which euery morning she bathed her bodie onely to make her beawtiful faire and white skin more smooth and amiable and that foode which nature gaue for the nourishment of young infants according to Gods will she wickedly abulediu the mainteinance of pride and in the seruice of the deuill This vile course of life she long wandred in loosing herselfe in the wildernesse of blacke iniquitte till the all-seeing seeing eies of wrath descended heauen and in a moment strooke this prowd exeature into such on ovious leaprosie that neither eye could indure her sight nor nostrellavide her corrupting sauours now that bodie so finely framd of natures chiefest mould that lately would not indure the whistling of the gentle windes were now more lothsome then the spotted adder and that cleare celestiall face that disdaind to entertaine the comfortable heate of the warme sunne was now more ovious to mans sight then the swelling toad and all those Ladies that had wont to atend vppon her forsooke her company and fled her chamber as from adenne of snakes they that kept nearest to her were distressed people and vile malefactors such as were lately deliuered from loathsome prisons and deepe dungeons and these in contempt of heauens iudgement caused she with sharpe rasers to flea off the vpper skinne from her spotted face and leaprous bodie in hope that a new young and fresh skinne would againe growe and that her beawtte in a liuely manner would againe be replenished and not as now blemished with one stained spot or soule vlcer all this according to her will was imediately performed but to small purpose for the enuy of heauen cloathed with red vengeauce had doomed her to a miserable death for neither art nor nature by any practise could euer after couer her hated bodie with any kind of skin but that all hir flesh contine wed rawe and loathsome and putrified vnto her bones in this torment as a iudgement of hir pride remained she desiring death but could not dye til the moone had twice twelue times renewd her brightnes and that the earth had twice put on her spring times liuery and twice frostie bearded winter disrobd dame natures Gardens then oh then returnd the three wandring louers with conquest of their straunge adventures earth one hoping to reape the deserts of their true merrits The Soldier whose taske was to finde a bedde fild with a solter substance then the downe feathers of swans in this daungerous manner brought he his labour to an end First after his departure from this prowd Lady Sola he trauelled many strange countries meeting with many straunge people and in searching many strange places he happend into a caue where liu'da Satyr of such bignes as mans eye had hardly seene this Satyr liu'd vppon the spoile of traueliers within whose Caue lay the signes of such as he had murthered and deuowred the number of the dead bones and sculles which lay heaped there together draue such an admiration into the soldiers heart that for a time his feare so abounded that hee stood as it were senceles but at last being ornefied with the bould courage of manhood hee drew foorth his short semiter and with one blow smote of the Satyrs head whilst he lay sleeping vppon a bedde stuffed with nothing but winde the which the soldier no sooner perceiued but he verily beleeued his taske to be ended and that a bedde stuffed close with winde were farre more softer then the downe of signets so taking vp the same bedde and packing it vppon his Bennet behinde him he arriued as you heard at the pallace of this prowd Ladie whose misfortunes with fatall newes no sooner gaue him intertainement but he fell into a melaucholly dispaire and now seeing his long and dangerous trauailes reaping no better successe as one wearied both of life and good chaunce conuaide the saide windie bedde into a field vp to the toppe of a high mountaine where vppon he laide his brused bodie and was by the saide winde imediatiely carried away for euer The Scholler whose long tranells and deepe studdie nothing inferiour to the Soldier after he had spent two yeares practice in framing a Fountaine that should yeelde such a Water that neither rayned from heauen nor sprung from the conduits of the earth a taske as he thought impossible yet good chaunce so directed his steps that he ariued in the I le of Delphos at the Dracle of Apollo who after his deuine sacrifice had this pleasing answere reuealed to him The dew of heauen is neither water from the clowds nor water springing from the earth replenith a fountaine therewith and so conquer fate for inded he conquered fate for at his returne to the prowd Ladies court in hearing of heauens iudgement laid vppon her and how that he had consumed two yeres labor to no effect he presently fell lunaticke and dyed Lastly the marchant tasted of deaths cup as dearly as the others did for after he had brought a bread far better then the bread of wheat which is the bread of saluation the sacred bible of God which he fetcht from the temple in Ierusalem but when he saw the end of his hopes rewarded with a vision of calamitie he departed to a desert wildernesse onely inhabited with wilde beastes where for want of foode he famished himselfe to death Then Sola after she had inteligēce of the liues ruins of those 3. gallāt gentlemen whom she had so cruelly doomed to miserable trauailes
