other private Perons The Hollander likewise joined some Ships so that the Fleet consisted of about Eleven thousand Souldiers and Fifteen hundred Mariners With this Fleet ANTHONY with some few Portuguesses set Sail out of England having before assured the English That the Portuguesses would revolt from the Spaniard and appear for him and that Muley Hamet King of Morocco would strengthen him with Twenty thousand men The first place the English Fleet put into was the Groyne in Gallicia the base Town they easily took but endeavouring the higher were repulsed and forced to raise their Siege upon Report that the Count of Andrada was coming with Forces to cut off their passage to their Ships which Norris resolving to prevent marched up to them defeated them and had the slaughter of them for Three Miles after which having pillaged and burnt some Villages they returned to Sea steering their Course for Portugal They had laboured some time with contrary Winds plying to and fro at Sea when Robert the young Earle of Essex fell into them who out of Military Glory Hate of the Spaniard and Commiseration of ANTHONY had left the Court without the knowledge or consent of the Queen in hope by Reason of the influence he had upon the Souldiery to be chosen General of the Foot Two dayes after his Conjunction with them they arrived in Penicha where they landed after the loss of some men and reduced the Castle to ANTHONY'S Obedience Sir John Norris marcheth ditectly to Lisbonne Hence the Land-forces under the Command of Sir John Norris marched directly and with all possible speed towards Lisbon about Sixty Miles distant Drake promising to follow with the Fleet by the way of the River Tagus The Army being arrived at Lisbon though they had before at a Councel of War determined to encamp on the East-side of the Town the better to bar Succours from coming out of Spain now contrary to their own Resolutions sate down before St. Katherines Suburbs on the West-side whereas at first they found no Resistance so they found little help but what the prayers of some few disarmed men gave them who now and then cried out God save the King ANTHONY And indeed other help they could not afford him Albertus Arch-duke of Austria the Vice-Roy having before disarmed the Portugals The next day when the English weary with their long march betook themselves to their Rest the Spanish Garison sallied out upon them who were at first resisted by Brett and his Companies till more coming up to their Assistance forced the Spaniards to give back the Valiant Earle of Essex chasing them to the very Gates but the English had several Commanders of Note and no small quantity of private Souldiers slain In sum when they had now stayed two dayes before the Town and perceived that the Portugals notwithstanding the great brags and fair promises of ANTHONY did not at all incline to a Revolt and that no Advice came of any Assistance from Muley Hamet King of Morocco but that instead of them fresh Forces flocked in great Numbers from the East-parts into the City whil'st their Army was lessned by a violent Sickness their Provision and Ammunition failed and their great Guns for Battery arrived not they raised their Siege and took their way towards Cascais a small Town at the mouth of the River the Spaniards following them at a distance but not ever daring to fall in their Rear The Town of Cascais they took blew up the Castle and so notwithstanding all the intreaties of ANTHONY set Sail for England firing in their way Vigo a Port-town deserted of its Inhabitants Thuanus So that now after a second Repulse ANTHONY was forced to retire into France where he was favourably received by King Henry the Great under whose protection he passed the rest of his life His Death and having lived Threescore and four Years dyed at Paris the Five and twentieth day of Years of CHRIST 1595 August in the Year One thousand five hundred fourscore and fifteen His body was deposited in the Church
