We travell'd four Leagues upon the same Road and through a very fair Country but not so level nor smooth as being stony and full of little Hills We also ferry'd over a River call'd Harpasony that waters all the Neighbouring Lands It separates the Government of that part of Armenia of which Erivan is the Capital from that

was to the Court and besides was well acquainted with the Vizier's Disposition his Implacability and the Importance of the Affair made no question but the Intercepted Packet would put him to a great deal of trouble and therefore he consulted with his Interpreters and his Secretaries Immediately the Secretary for his Ciphers took such a fright at the Unfortunate Accident that he resolv'd to march off well knowing that the Grand Vizier upon the like occasion of a Letter in Ciphers Intercepted had caus'd an Interpreter to the Venetians to be Drubb'd to Death Thereupon addressing himself to M. de la Haye Sir said he I am naturally so very timorous that so soon as I feel the Drubbing-Stick there is no secret which I shall not reveal and therefore secure me or let me make my escape Upon which the Ambassador order'd him to be conveigh'd into a private Concealment and prepar'd to abide the Shock whatever happen'd He then kept his Bed very ill of the Stone so that he could not go to Adrianople though he had receiv'd Orders to appear there However he sent a Message to the Caimacan who sent him the Order to tell him That he was sick a Bed so that it was impossible for him to Travel nevertheless he would send his Son in his stead But so it happen'd that all the Letters which the Grand Vizier met with in the Venetian General 's Packet were writ in Ciphers so that all the Renegado's and Interpreters in the Ottoman Court were sent for in vain for there was not one that had a Key to the Lock which enrag'd the Vizier so much the more And as for M. de la Haye the Son he found him in such an ill Humour at his coming to Adrianople that upon his returning him an Answer somewhat more boldly perhaps then the Circumstance would bear Cuperly transsported with passion not only caus'd him to be abus'd in his Person but sent him Prisoner to a Tower adjoyning to the Wall of the City saying withal That he was not to endure that from an Ambassador's Deputy though his Son which he might bear with in the Ambassador himself However the Vizier did no harm either to the Merchants or the Interpreters that went along with M. de la Haye nor to the Secretary or Chancellor being all discharg'd at the expence of that fear into which he had put 'em at first by Threats and cruel Menaces of Torment and Death if they did not Decipher the General 's Letters Only one of the Interpreters fell into such a Distemper upon it that he has continu'd sick every since and 't is thought he will never recover The Ottoman Court was then at Adrianople as I have said making great Preparations for the Transylvanian War So that M. de la Haye the Father understanding the Grand Vizier was ready to march and fearing his departure before he had enlarg'd his Son as it really fell out strove with his Distemper and took a Journey to Adrianople to which his Daughter-in-Law perswaded him urging him continually That if he did not speedily labour the Discharge of his Son he might be in danger of his Life and that the Vizier was cruel and incens'd and therefore he ought to use his utmost Endeavours to pacific his Fury A Month after the Vizier's departure the Ambassador ventur'd upon a bold Exploit that deserves to be remember'd A little before Vertamont's coming to Constantinople there arriv'd in the same place a certain French Man whose Name was Quiclet together with his Wife and another French Man whose Name was Poulet so enamour'd of Quiclet's Wife that he never forsook her in all her Rambles This Quiclet was a great Interpreter of Ciphers a Man of Learning but of little Judgment He had also been employ'd to Decipher Characters by several Ministers of State and divers Ambassadors But he was so much a Beggar that he could not well be poorer then he was nor do I know what unlucky Star brought him to Constantinople It is reported however that he having heard of the great Rewards which the Grand Vizier promis'd to any one that could Uncipher the General 's Letters the Wife of this wretched Fellow addressing her self to some Gentlemen that belong'd to Monsieur de la Haye gave it out That though his Excellency refus'd to lend her Husband Money yet if he would himself he could have what he pleas'd of the Grand Vizier I am not certain whether it were really so as the Thing was related to me but however it were Monsieur de la Haye who well knew the great desire which Cuperly had to understand what was contain'd in the Intercepted Letters and fearing lest they should reveal some Things as well to his own as to the Ruine of all the French in the Levant he sent for the Fellow carry'd him up to the Terrace of his Palace that lookt into the Garden and after he had walk'd two or three Turns holding him in a discourse which what it was no body knows he gave a sign to some persons plac'd there for the purpose who threw him headlong over the Battlements at what time another Gang posted near the place where he fell perceiving he was not dead with the Fall finish'd the Work and buri'd him privately After this the French Ambassador having Audience of the Grand Vizier he sent for the Intercepted Letters and desir'd the Ambassador to explain ' em To which Monsieur le Haye made Answer That it was well known to all the World that the Ambassadors and Ministers of the Christian Princes never wrote one to another unless it were in Characters whatever the Subject were nevertheless they did not understand the Characters themselves as having their Secretaries who compos'd and writ the Ciphers and then explain'd them when they had done That as for the Person by him employ'd for that purpose he had sent him back into France about six Months ago Yet if the Grand Vizier would permit him to carry the Letters home he would try to Uncipher 'em and if it could be done he would be sure to let him know the Contents But the Grand Vizier having heard this Answer only smil'd upon the Ambassador and so presently rose from his Seat without speaking so much as one word Some few days after the Chief Minister departed for Transylvania leaving Monsieur de la Haye the Son in Prison but not so closely restrain'd as before and Monsieur de la Haye the Father without any manner of Answer The Grand Signior did not go in Person to the Transylvanian War but remain'd at Adrianople where the Ambassador also tarry'd in hopes to obtain of his Highness his Son's Enlargement but no body durst open their Mouths to the Emperor without the Vizier's order Who having put a quick end to the Transylvanian Disorder return'd Victorious to Constantinople Where so soon as he arriv'd he was put in mind of both the Monsieurs de la Haye At which the Vizier
