Kingdom is well governed where the King is ruled by the Laws not the Laws by the King Be not presumptuous in your Command yet seek to be obeyed as you desire to obey for as you are above others others are above you Give your mind to accommodate Controversies among your Neighbours and you shall gain their Love which will more avail you than the hate of the Lawyers can hurt you Punish Idleness and other vices as well for that they are such as for examples sake Gain love by doing Justice and hate doing wrong though it were to your immediate profit If you marry after my death chuse a Wife as near as you can suitable to your Calling Years and Condition for such Marriages are made in Heaven though celebrated on Earth If your Estate were great your choice might be the freer but where the preferment of your Sisters must depend upon your Wives Portion let not your Fancy overrule your Necessity It is an old Saying He that marrieth for love hath evil days and good nights Consider if you marry for Affection how long you will be raising Portions for your Sisters and the misery you shall live in all the days of your life for the greatest Fortune that a man can expect is in his Marriage A wise man is known by his actions but where Passion and Affection sway that man is deprived of sence and understanding It is not the Poverty or Meanness of her that 's married that makes her the better Wife for commonly such Women grow elevated and are no more mindful of what they have been than a Mariner is of his escape from a danger at Sea when it is past You must set your Wife a good example by your own carriage for a wise and discreet Husband usually makes an obedient and dutiful Wife Beware of Jealousie for it causeth great vexation of mind and scorn and laughter from your Enemies Many times it is occasioned by the behaviour of the Husband towards other Women in that case do like the Physician take away the cause of the infirmity if not you are worthy to feel the smart of it Jealousie is grounded upon conceit and imagination proceeds from a weak idle and distempered Brain and the unworthy carriage of him that is jealous many times maketh a Woman do what otherwise she would not If God be pleased to give you Children love them with that discretion that they discern it not lest they too much presume upon it Encourage them in things that are good and correct them if they offend The love of God to Man cannot be better expressed than by that of a Father to his Children Comforts of Crosses they prove to their Parents and herein Education is a great help to Nature Let your Children make you to disrelish and abandon all other delights and pleasures of the world in respect of the comfort and joy you receive by them Make account then that Somer is past and the melancholy Winter approacheth for a careful and provident Father cannot take delight in the world and provide for his Children For a conclusion I will recommend two principal Virtues to you the one is Secrecy the other Patience Secrecy is necessarily required in all especially publick persons for many times they are trusted with things the revealing whereof may cost them their lives and hinder the designs of their Masters It is a folly to trust any man with a secret that can give no assistance in the business he is trusted with Councellors of State and Generals of Armies of all other ought to be most secret for their designs being once discovered their Enterprizes fail Silence was so much esteemed among the Persians that she was adored for a Goddess The Romans kept their Expeditions so secret as that alone was a principal cause of their Victories But of all others trust not Women with a Secret for the weakness of their Sex makes them unsecret Be patient after the example of Job and you shall become a true Servant of God Patience deserveth to be painted with a Sword in her hand for she conquers and subdues all difficulties If you will take advantage of your Enemy make him cholerick and by patience you shall overcome him Marcus Aurelius being both Emperour and Philosopher confessed he attained not the Empire by Philosophy but by Patience What man in the world was ever so patient as our Saviour himself by following whose example his Ministers have converted more by their words then all the persecuting Emperours could deferr by rigour or cruelty of Laws The impatient man contests with God himself who giveth and taketh away at his good will and pleasure Let me good Son be your Patern of Patience for you can witness with me that the Disgraces I have unjustly suffered my Estate being through my misfortunes ruined my Health by imprisonments decayed and my Services undervalued and unrecompensed have not bred the least distaste or discontent in me or altered my resolution from my infancy that is I was never so base as to insinuate into any mans favour who was favoured by the times I was never so ambitious as to seek or crave Imployment or to undertake any that was not put upon me My great and onely comfort is that I served my Princes both faithfully and fortunately but seeing my Services have been no better accepted I can as well content my self in being a Spectator as if I were an Actor in the world Before I treat of the Sea I will shew what Laws Richard the First established in his Expedition by Sea which in some points are observed to this day 1. That whosoever should kill a man should be tied to him killed and thrown into the Sea with him 2. If any be killed on Land the party to be buried alive with him killed 3. Whosoever shall strike another and not draw bloud shall be duck'd three times at the Yards Arm. 4. Whosoever revileth or curseth another so often as he revileth shall pay an ounce of Silver 5. Whosoever draweth his Knife or draweth Bloud shall lose his Hand 6. Whosoever doth steal shall have his Head shorn and boiled Pitch poured upon it and Feathers strewed upon the same whereby he may be known and at the first Landing place he shall be towed on shore A Yearly Account of the English and Spanish Fleets which were set forth from the Year 1585 when the Wars with Spain first began untill the Year 1602 when King James made his happy Entrance into this Kingdom shewing the Designs Escapes and Errors on both English and Spanish sides with the Names of the Queens Ships and Commanders in every Expedition A Voyage of Sir Francis Drake to the West Indies Anno Dom. 1585.
