But in the ende he tooke this Thomas and caused his handes and féet to be cut off At this time the Sarazins surprised Candy had two seuerall victories ouer the Gréekes and Michaell died of a flux in his belly Theophilus sonne to Michaell the Stammerer was Emperor of Constantinople after his father He was a good Iusticer well affected towards his Subiects but he held the Images of Saints in great detestation and seuerely punnished all such as worshipped them being therein his fathers true follower Two seuerall times he gaue battell to the Sarazins that wasted and spoyles the Countries of Asia And as many times was he foiled loosing there all his Tents and Pauillions Amorium a little village of the higher Phrygia being the place of his birth was besieged taken and rifled by those Sarazins The Emperour grieued thereat so immeasureablie that hee refused to eate and woulde drinke nothing but colde water So falling into a Dysenterie hee died Theodora after the decease of Theophilus her Husband as Tutresse or Guardian vnto her son Michaell who was in his young yeares gouerned the Empire of Constantinople very sufficiently comforting the poore distressed Christians and reuoking home such as liued in exile about the question of Images She treated a peace with the

their Estate whereby ensued manie contentions among them For some woulde haue it brought into a Monarchie which is the Gouernement of one Prince onely And others into an Aristocratie which is to bee gouerned by a certaine number of Wise and discréete personnes Héereuppon in a publlque assemblie made on this occasion one among them named Charamond made a verie eloquent Oration in the behalfe of Monarchie and his maine scope aymed that they shoulde elect for their King and Prince Pharamond a man iust verie deuoute of good sorte and valiaunt qualities necessarilie requyred to bee in a Prince Moreouer hee added that if hee shoulde doo anie thing vnfitting for a King and Prince it was a very easie matter for them to take away from him the administration of his Kingdome and Gouernement because people were before Kings and made them their Rulers Nor can I be perswaded quoth he that the man now to be elected will any way fall into Tiranny or raise vs in any disobedience towardes him in regard of the vertuous qualities wherewith he is endued And from him may we well expect all such Iustice kindnesse care and assistaunce as Subiects can hope for in their Prince his actions behauiour of life being so wel knowne vnto vs. He is Sonne to this woorthy Captaine Marcomir who so wisely and happily hath brought vs hither who so securely hath heere established vs and who so valiantly sheelded vs from the Romaines threatnings when by inequality of our power to theyrs wee were compelled to forsake the Palus Maeotides Wee are then much obliged to Pharamond in memory of his Fathers weighty merites And these two especiall reasons shoulde mooue vs to receyue him as our King and preferre him before all other to that dignity euen as wee ought to aduance Monarchy before Aristocratie whereunto I know some among vs will encline without fore-seeing the harmes that will befall vs if we embrace it For if wee consider our auncient manner of life it hath beene to obey one and not many in which regarde me-thinkes that the first thing which ought to be respected in the establishing of an Estate is the humour of the Inhabitantes and to consider of what commaund or gouernement they are most capeable to wit of Monarchie alone or many-headed Aristocratie Thus spake Charamond and then manie contrarieties were mooued among them about diuersitie of Opinions Whereupon Prince Charamond beganne agayne another most excellent Oration maintaining his former spéeches againste Quadrek a great Prince likewise who defended the contrarie saying That Kingdomes gouerned by many Princes were more peaceable and better pollicied then to be subiects to one king onely After all these disputes long debated on eyther side the Francs who were more capeable to liue vnder a Monarchie then a publicke commaunde because they were men free most hardie and couragious by common consent elected King Pharamond and according to their custome placing him vppon a Pauois lifted him vppon the Shoulders of men and so walked with him thrée times about the place of their méeting proclaiming him theyr King This was in the yeare of the Worldes creation 438● And of Iesus Christ 420. Or after others foure hundred twenty six or four hundred twenty and seauen Some say that he was the Sonne of Marcomir yet others say no. His name was Pharamōd or Waramond which in the ancient Franc Language signifyeth a man of truth And wee may well conceiue that his name and Nature were correspondent and that he was a vertuous personage considering they chose him for their king after such a great contention and withall that such as desire to liue vnder a Monarchy and to haue one King will haue him to be a good man which is the onely felicitie that can come to any Estate when a Prince is furnished with integritie and trueth and all other Vertues commendable in a Prince Euen as contrariwise it can sustaine no greater mischiefe then to be subiected to barbarousnesse and Iniustice of a cruell Tyrant All the truest Histories doo agrée that Pharamond was the firste King of the Francs or Francons in Franconia a Prouince of Germanie but they speake not of his passage into Gaule for hee was neuer there And the first of them that euer went thither was Clodion the Hayrie Sonne according to some of the fore-named Pharamond Nor came he also thither but as wee vse to say to bidde the Countrey Good morrow For hee was repulsed chased and compelled to returne thence And hee that of the two Nations of the Francones and Gaules made them but one reducing them into one bodye was Meroneus the Sonne of Clodion as shall bee after declared in his due place Pharamond liued onelye on the Bankes of Rhine without passing anye further thence it contented him to bring his people onely thither to sounde not the foord but the fortune of passage into Gaule Beeing chosen King hee conceiued that the verie strongest bonde which bindes and shuttes vp anie State for longest continuance is the Constitution of Lawes which are nothing else but a reason planted in Nature commending honest occasions and prohibiting their contraries Beside that they had neuer béene made by Lawe-Makers but for the conseruation of States Empyres Kingdomes Seigneuries Citties and theyr Inhabitantes And because long Warres as also their so recent and late foyle had brought his people vnto some good forme of obedience hee concluded to make new Lawes which might cause them to liue vnder certaine Rules of pollicy considering that as hardlie can a people liue without Lawes as the body without members For the better establishing of these newe Lawes hee vsed the aduise of foure his cheefest Barons euen those of woorthiest merrite amongest all his Lordes to whome some doo giue these Names Vridogast Sagobast Vrisogast and Bosogast Hee likewise deuised certaine Lawes which hee tearmed Saliques and Ripuaries the Chapters whereof are yet to bee seene which doo not speake any thing of the generall right of his Kingdomes but concerning the particular right of euerie one especially in the Article of Succession From whence our French Nation hath deriued the Lawe Salique speaking of the succession of the Realme of France the institution whereof they attribute to Pharamond Against which Iudgement wee will not oppose our selues any way onely we say by the testimony of truest Histories there is not found any but this Salique Law which the French doe boldely affirme to bee made by Pharamond Yet such as labour to haue vs beléeue this opinion doe scarcely know howe the Kingdomes of Barbarians and their Kinges gouerned Albeit it was a custome obserued among Barbarous Nations that their Daughters should neuer succéede in the Crownes of their Kingdomes Also in the raigne of Pharamond the third generall Councell of Ephesus was holden against Nestorius Byshop of Constantinople the fourth Schisme came into the Church Saint Hierome and Saint Augustine died the one aged ninetie
