The People of Hungary are strong of Body The quality of the People but somewhat rude of behaviour respecting neither the Liberall Arts nor Mechanick Trades The greatest aspersion is the name of a Coward which cannot be wiped off without the killing of a Turk after which they are priviledged to wear a Feather and by the number of their Feathers to shew how many Turks they have slain in Battel They delight in Wars like no Trade better desiring rather to live upon other mens labors then upon their own They are extream covetous yet they have rather a desire then any Art to enrich themselves permiting the Dutch to ingross all their Trading and to mannage such Commodities as their Country yields which is the cause seconded by the oppressions of the Turks and Austrian Family under whom they are that none of them rise to any considerable Wealth And for such as have lands they grow poorer every Day then other For though the Females be excluded from inheriting their Fathers Possessions to whom they give no Portion but new clothes on their Wedding day yet seeing the Sons do equally share their Fathers estate amongst them as such who hold in Gavelkind do here in England it must needs be that by so many Divisions and Subdivisions the greatest Patrimony that is will be brought to little Both Sexes in their education are inured to hardship being not suffered to lie in Beds till the night of their marriage The Hungarians at this day contemn ease and pleasure and live not in Towns but as strangers with a design to be soon gone Great men lodge their delights in their Gardens and Baths and care not for their Buildings but desire to live at large The Common People live in Cabins and little lodgings ill made Their Habit.

and Silver amongst the People Which done the King went by a Gallery from St Martins Church to another called the Deschausses where after they had read the Gospel he made two and twenty Knights Then being attired in his Royal Ornaments and the Crown upon his Head he went to Horse and was brought to a bank of Earth which he leaped thrice over and then he flourished his Sword thrice in the air in form of a Cross which done he returned to the Castle where the Feast was prepared The Germans discharged The Ceremonies being over he was forced to deprive the Germans of the Dignities Charges Estates and Offices which they held in Hungary and so having pacified the Country and reduced under his Crown that which the Christians held there he returned to Vienna Thus in the space of seven Moneths he caused himself to be Crowned King of Hungary and to be acknowleged Archduke of Austria and Marquess of Moravia Botzkay a little before his Death declared Valentine Hamonnai for Prince of Transylvania But the Transylvanians not pleased therewith chose Sigismund Rakoczi Rakoczi Prince of Transylvania who was very desirous to have evaded it but they forced him to Clausenburg and made him assume the Principality the Turk also consenting and confirming him therein About this time Matthias King of Hungary held a Diet at Cassovia where Sigismund Rakoczi as Prince of Transylvania did him Fealty and soon after resigned the Principality to Gabriel Bathori He resigns to Bathori wherein he shewed his great modesty in declining the Soveraignty and transfering it to an other when he was so beloved and honoured by the People Jesuits wickedness Shortly after by the instigation of the Jesuites Matthias infringed and invaded the Hungarians liberties about their Religion but the Electors of Saxony and other Protestant Princes arming themselves in their behalf overruled Matthias whereby they were suffered to live in Peace Then did Radulo the Vayvod of Walachia refuse Homage to Bathori whereupon he raised a very great Army and it came to a Battel betwixt them wherein Bathori was totally routed and forced to fly into the Mountains Matthias King of Hungary taking advantage of this his overthrow seized upon Clausenburge and some other strong Holds that belonged to Bathori yet shortly after Bathori raising a new Army beat the Kings General out of his Dominions and forced him to hide himself in the Woods of Bohemia after he had suffered very great extremities yet Bethlem Gabor was by the Great Turk made Prince of Transylvania which so enraged Bathori Bathori murthered that he committed great ravages amongst the People and at last being forced to fly from Clausenburg to Varadine he was there murthered Bethlehem was immediately owned by the Transylvanians Bethlem Gabor succeeds and confirmed by the Great Turk and Matthias who was now Emperor his Brother Rodulphus being dead shortly after died also leaving his Crown to Ferdinand the second who the next year was Crowned King of Hungary at which time three Suns appeared in the Heavens portending the Wars and mischiefs which shortly after ensued Ferdinand after his Coronation being excited thereto by the Jesuites brake the Articles of Peace made with Botzcai and recalled the Jesuites in hatred to the Protestants Presently after also the States of Bohemia being wronged by him in their liberties both Civil and Religious Frederick chosen King of Bohemia conferred the Kingdom upon Frederick Prince Elector Palatine the Issue whereof is so well known to all that I need say nothing of it Anno Christi 1624. Ferdinand Ernestus the eldest Son of Ferdinand the second in his Fathers life time was Crowned King of Hungary at Ovarum and at the same time Bethlehem Gabor married Catherine the Daughter of John Sigismund Marquess of Brandenburgh at Alba Julia and 1626 Bethlem advanced with an Army into Hungary to joyn with Count Mansfield and the Duke of Saxon Weymar but hearing that forty thousand Tartars his Confederates were slain in Poland he made peace with Ferdinand and retreated into Transylvania and not long after dyed Gabor dies whereby all the places granted to him in Hungary reverted to the King After the Death of Gabor Rakoczi chosen Prince of Transylvania George Rakoczi was made Prince of Transylvania by the Election of the People and confirmed in it by the Turk At which time the King of Hungary sent Esterhasius the Palatine of Hungary with a great Army to possess himself of Transylvania but Rakoczi being now setled sent an Army into Hungary that met with Esterhasius and overthrew him and took severall Cities the Grand Signior also sent him ten Thousand men in testimony of his affection to him who wasted the Countrey all about yet the Emperor not willing to fall out with the Turk sat still Ferdinand de Gratz dies Jesuites wickedness Anno Christi 1636. Ferdinand the second died and left all his Dominions to his Son Ferdinand the third which change probably would have brought Peace to Hungary and Transylvania but the Jesuites wrought new troubles and the Catholick Nobles of Hungary grutched that the Protestants by the late Wars had procured some things in favour of their Religion and the Lutherans had built a very beautifull Church in Presburg The Emperor incensed hereat sent to prohibite them and disallowed his former concessions The Protestants hereupon had recourse to Rakoczi who was offended with the Emperor upon this account There was found at Varadin in the Vault of Ladislaus and Sigismund some Treasure together with a Crown Scepter and Jewels one being a Diamond of a vast bigness that shone like a Torch there being a curse added to any that should presume to meddle with them till some extream necessity should require it These Ferdinand sent for and Rakoczi refused to deliver them Another thing that widened the difference was this Some Hungarian Nobles turned Catholicks and others that were such got Lordships where the Protestant Religion was professed and these took upon them to restrain them from the exercise of their Religion and took their Churches from them and placed Priests in them These irregularities Rakoczi complained of to the Emperor desiring him to remove them and to observe those immunities and priviledges which he and the Estates had confirmed to the Protestants and whereas the Emperor had caused three hundred of the Protestant Churches to be shut up he desired that they might be restored to them But the Emperor slighted him and put him off with delays Hereupon Rakoczi proclaimed open War against the Emperor Rakoczi proclaims War against the Emperor raised an Army of seventy thousand with which he invaded Hungary publishing a Manifesto to justifie his proceedings He took in divers Castles and forced Cassovia to a surrender To stop his Progress the Emperor sent an Army of twenty thousand men under Count Bucaine but the Hungarians daily falling to Rakoczi the other did little or nothing In the mean
