all such as then were drowned with vs and began to thinke with my selfe that peraduenture although they had dronke as I did they would not all haue béen so wilfull and obstinate as my selfe because they were not all Lazaroes de Tormes who learned the Arte at that notable schoole of the Tauernes and Cellars of Toleda in the companie of my masters the Dutchmen In this manner calling to memorie these and manie other things I perceiued a great quantitie of Fishes to approach vnto the place where I was some rising from the bottome of the Sea others descending downward and all of them ioyning together besieged mee round about where I sate I saw and knew verie well that they came with an euill intent and meaning wherewith hauing more feare than will I began to rise and with much paine stood vppon my féete thinking to defend my selfe against them but all in vaine being at that instant in a manner spoyled and stiffe with colde by meanes of the euill water which had entered into my bodie whereof I was so sicke that I could not by anie meanes sustaine my selfe nor yet once lift vp my sword for to defend mée And as I perceiued my selfe to approach so néere vnto my death I looked if I could finde anie remedie against that miserie and to séeke it in my sword there was no long hope for the reasons before alleadged Wherefore going vppon the Rocke as well as I could as GOD would I found a little hoale wherein I entered and beeing within I perceiued it to bee a Caue made into the Rocke and although the entrie were but strayght and narrow yet was there space inough within to tourne and wynde my selfe and vse my weapons at pleasure whereinto there was no other entrie but that onely which I had luckely found out It séemed the Lord himselfe had sent me thither for by that onely meanes I recouered againe some part of my former strength which before I had almost vtterly lost Wherewith taking againe to my selfe fresh courage and reuiuing my drouping spirites I turned my face towards my enemies placing the poynt of my sword at the entrie of the Caue and so began with most fierce Stoccadoes to defend my Fort. By that time the whole multitude of fishes had besieged me round about giuing most great flashes and assaults against me in the water and approching very neere vnto the mouth of the caue but such as séemed to bee most hardye presuming to eate in I thinke escaped not scot free For as I stood directly with my sword against the entrie of the caue they thinking to enter fell vpon my sword and so lost their liues and others which with great furie approached néere vnto me got their reward with blowes All this notwithstanding made them not breake vp their siege but in the meane time it waxed darke and night approaching made the fight somewhat to cease although they left not off manie times to assaile me proouing whether I slept or if by anie meanes they might perceaue me to be wearied and weake This thus continuing poore Lazarus being in this great extremitie perceiuing my selfe assieged by so manie enemies in so strange a place without all remedie or hope of reléefe and considering that my good conseruator I mean the wine began by little and little to consume within me in place whereof the salt water entred and that each houre I began to waxe weake because it was not possible for me to sustaine my self my nature being altogether contrarie vnto theirs that remained and dwelt in the water and that likewise my strength failed me by reason that of a long time I had not eaten any thing wherwith to strengthen the same but to the contrarie laboured and trauelled my wearie bodie as also because the water doth disgest and consume verie much I still looked for no other thing than when my sword would fall out of my weake trembling hands which should no sooner be perceiued by my enemies but they would put me to a most cruell and bitter death making their bodies my sepulcher All which by me well weighed and considered and on the contrarie not finding any remedie or meanes of releefe I turned vnto him to whom all good Christians haue recourse recommending my selfe vnto him that giueth ayde and reléefe to all such as craue it at his hands that was the most merciful God our Lord Iesus Christ Then I began afresh to sigh lamenting and bewayling my former sinnes asking mercie and forgiuenes for them and committing my selfe vnto his diuine will and pleasure I besought him to deliuer me from that cruell death with promise that if it pleased him to giue me life I would become a new man euer after Then I made my prayers vnto the most glorious Saint Marie his Mother and our Ladie promising to visite her in her houses of Monferrat of Guadalupe and on the borders of France After that directing my supplications vnto all the Saints but specially vnto S. Eli●●us and vnto Monsieur S Amador which both haue power ouer the waters This done I rehearsed certaine oraisons as manie as I could remember learned of my master which with most great deuotion I vttered besides diuers other prayers which haue force and power against the perills of the water Which done in the ende the Lord Iesus by the vertue of his passion and by the force of the Saints prayers and for the pitie of my great miserie which as then appeared before mine eies wrought in me a most maruellous and rare miracle although in respect of his mightie power it séemed nothing which was that I being thus in manner without a soule sicke and halfe choaked with the great quantitie of water which as I said before had entered into my bodie to my no little damage and likewise being stiffe and as it were dead with cold that still assailed me which as long as my preseruer the wine remained in his force I neuer once did feele My sorrowfull bodie being wearied and as it were broken in péeces by meanes of the anguish and continuall persecution thereof together with the discontinuance of eating meate I sodainly felt my selfe to be changed from the shape of a man which I had béen not féeling either hand or foote vnto the verie shape and forme of those which had and did at that present besiege me round about Whose shape when I perceiued my selfe to be changed into I presently knew them to be fishes called a Tonnie and then I vnderstood how they sought my death saying This is the traitor and the enemie of our sauery and most sacred waters this is the aduersarie not onely of vs but also of all other Fishes which at this present hath made such an execution and slaughter among vs killing and murthering so great multitudes of our nation it is not possible for him to escape from hence but day once appearing wee will bee reuenged on him Thus I heard the iudgement which my
