A necessary Discourse concerning the right which the house of Guyze pretendeth to the Crowne of France Faithfully translated out of the French AT LONDON Imprinted for Edward Aggas 1586. A discourse concerning the pretended right of the house of Guyze to the house of France IT is commonly knowne thorowout this Realme that the house of Lorraine attributeth to it self the right of y e Crowne of France to y e prouing whereof such Chronickles and Genealogies as in y e daies of the late King Henry the second they falsified might easily be recouered as also the consultations by them holden concerning their title in the tyme of the late King Frances the second together with those remembrances which in the raigne of the late King Charles the ninth yea and euen vnto this day haue bene scattered among the people still aduancing by such deuises their practizes and deuises according as the subuertion of this poore Estate doth seeme to growe on by meanes of Ciuill Warres where through the lawfull Princes power beeing deminished the sinewes weakened and the path to nouelties prepared they haue promised to them selues place in their pretended seate by thrusting forth of those whom they accompt vsurpers These matters hauing many tymes bene opened to their Maiesties they haue bene so farre from beleeuing them to bee other then sclanders inuented vpon some similitudes of trueth by such as maliced or enuied this famelie that the same notwithstanding they haue committed into their hands as well the weapons as authoritie royall yea and vnder pretence of Romish Religion haue permitted them to practize Leagues in this Estate that is to prepare their factions and partakers to the first occasion and as it were to make tryall of the Crowne upon their heades which haue so hartened some Doctors of Sarbonne that they haue presumed in argument to graunt that a Prince or King fayling in his duetie to the Romish Church may by the same be dispossessed of his Crowne yea and some Munckes to the contempt of the King and derogation of the Princes of his blood haue preached forth the praises of those vndertwigges or borgeons as they terme them of Charlemaigne admonishing their auditors to cast their eyes vpon them as vpon the perfect restorers of the Church and Estate all which notwithstanding no man hath had regarde thereto or controulled such presumption as if the fortune of this Realme were growne fatally to bee dismembred in these our daies and that properly by this famelie To the ende therefore to cut off all doubtes and manifestly to enter into consideration and notice of this matter I am most humbly to beseech my Lord the King and all Princes which haue the honor to apperteine vnto him diligently to peruse a Booke intituled the Genealogies of Lorrain Barr which 〈◊〉 lately printed at Paris wherein they shall euen word by word finde the same to haue bene published at this tyme to the onely ende to enstruct euery one in the pretended right of the house of Lorraine to this Crowne and of such iniurie as they suppose that the house of France doth vnto them thereby to prepare the people against that alteration which they imagine to bee at hand shall fall out But because the vollume is large the poyson diuersly dispersed through all parts cloked and couered vnder sundry fables I haue thought good herein worde for word to examine and note the principall points and groundes thereof This Booke is written in Latin by one Frances of Roziers of Bar-le-duc Archdeacon of Thoul in Lorrain and dedicated to my Lord of Lorrain which also to the ende it may haue the more free passage is printed with y e Kings Priuiledge by one William Chaudier a Printer To come therefore to the matter It is euidently knowne y t since the Francons first inhabited Frāce by them surnamed Gaule we haue had three stocks of Kinges to raigne ouer vs. viz. Merouingians discended of Merouee Carlinghes proceeding from Charlemaigne and Capetz whose posteritie doth yet raigne in our Kings as also it is not vnknowne that the Lorraines doe pretende to the Crowne as heyres to Charlemaigne but if this Author may be beleeued the same is to them due euen from the Croyan horse whereof Merouee and his posteritie defrauded them before any of these three families had interest therein so as by that Lawe which saith there is no prescription against the Church or Prince all our Kings from the first to the last haue bene vsurpers and the true heire to the French Crowne remained in the family of the Dukes of Mosellane from whom the house of Lorraine doe fetch their originall These are the Authors very wordes in the third Booke Capitall iest 44. 45. c. Pharamond who first brought the Francons into France had by his wife Basine daughter to the K. of Thuring sundry children of whom the eldest was Clodio le Cheuelu or the hearie This Clodio among the rest had two sonnes Ranchair and Alberick Ranchair had three sonnes Ranchair the second Richer and Rainald who long tyme kept the Countrey of Cambray against the Merouingians but were in the ende subdued by the power of Clouis K. of Fran̄ce who with his own hands murdered them as before hee had done their father Ranchair the first Thus fell the right of eldership to Alberick the second sonne of Clodio who notwithstāding he was K. of the East Frenchmen did not neuerthelesse succeede his father Clodio because Merouee had gotten the Crowne This poore Alberick after his fathers decease retired into the lands of Aussois Moselle and Arden c. where so well as he might he kept himselfe out of the way from their furie Againe Consider with your selues the case of this poore Prince who being of the Royall familie was not onely depriued of his Realme but also through the crueltie of Merouce who sought vtterly to roote out the race of Clodio forced to hide himselfe wherefore he withdrewe himselfe to Montz in Henault there to expect the issue of the tyrannie of Merouee and his posteritie after hee had in vaine had recourse to the armie of Attila for his reestablishment But if you aske him of whence this Merouee the vsurper of the Crowne frō the predecessors of the Lorrains and the first originall of our Kings of France was he was saith he a bastard to Clodio or as others affirme a Capteyn or kinsman of his who by Clodio him selfe being made tutor to his childrē in respect of their youth defrauded the pupilles of their estate Then he goeth on and saith Vaubert discending from Clodio by this Alberick was ouerthrowne by Clotaire K. of France who was in feare least he should obteyne the Crowne but was forcibly againe restored by Thierry K. of the Ostrogoths Likewise that this ofspring of Merouee namely the race of Clouis seeing Ansbert the sonne of Vaubert to be a man of great hope seking to establish their Kingdome endeuoured to put him to death but he being
