trust in a business of that nature and recommend it to one or more of them to inform you of their opinions and of their reasons for or against the granting of it and if the matter be of great weight indeed then it would not be amiss to send several Copies of the same Petition to several of your Friends the one not knowing what the other doth and desire them to return their Answers to you by a certain time to be prefixed in writing so shall you receive an impartial Answer and by comparing the one with the other you shall both discern the Abilities and Faithfulness of your Friends and be able to give a judgment thereupon as an Oracle But by no means trust not your own judgment alone for no man is omniscient nor trust only to your Servants who may mislead you or misinform you by which they may perhaps gain a few Crowns but the Reproach will lie upon yourself if it be not rightly carried For the facilitating of your dispatches my Advice is further that you divide all the Petitions and the matters therein contained under several Heads which I conceive may be fitly ranked into these eight sorts 1. Matters that concern Religion and the Church and Church-men 2. Matters concerning Justice and the Laws and the Professors thereof 3. Councellors and the Councel-table and the great Offices and Officers of the Kingdom 4. Forrain Negotiations and Embassies 5. Peace and War both Forrain and Civil and in that the Navy and Forts and what belongs to them 6. Trade at home and abroad 7. Colonies or Forrain Plantations 8. The Court and Curiality And whatsoever will not fall naturally under one of these Heads believe me Sir will not be worthy of your thoughts in this capacity we now speak of And of these sorts I warrant you you will find enough to keep you in business I begin with the first which concerns Religion 1. In the first place be you your self rightly perswaded and setled in the true Protestant Religion professed by the Church of England which doubtless is as sound and orthodox in the Doctrine thereof as any Christian Church in the World 2. In this you need not be a Monitor to Your gracious Master the King the chiefest of His imperial Titles is to be The Defender of the Faith and His Learning is eminent not only above other Princes but above other men be but his Scholar and you are safe in that 3. For the Discipline of the Church of England by Bishops c. I will not positively say as some do that it 's Jure Divino but this I say and think ex animo that it is the nearest to Apostolical Truth and confidently I shall say it is fittest for Monarchy of all others I will use no other Authority to you than that excellent Proclamation set out by the King Himself in the first Year of His Reign and annexed before the Book of Common-Prayer which I desire you to read and if at any time there shall be the least motion made for Innovation to put the King in mind to read it Himself It is most dangerous in a State to give ear to the least alterations in Government 4. Take heed I beseech you that you be not an instrument to countenance the Romish Catholicks I cannot flatter the world believes that some near in blood to you are too much of that perswasion you must use them with fit respects according to the bonds of nature but you are of kin and so a Friend to their Persons not to their Errours 5. The Arch-bishops and Bishops next under the King have the Government of the Church and Ecclesiastical Affairs be not you the mean to prefer any to those places for any by-respects but only for their Learning Gravity and Worth their Lives and Doctrine ought to be exemplary 6. For Deans and Canons or Prebends of Cathedral Churches In their first institution they were of great use in the Church they were not only to be of councel with the Bishop for his revenue but chiefly for his Government in causes Ecclesiastical use your best means to preferre such to those places who are fit for that purpose men eminent for their learning piety and discretion and put the King often in minde thereof and let them be reduced again to their first institution 7. You will be often sollicited and parhaps importuned to preferre Scholars to Church-living you may further your friends in that way caeteris paribus otherwise remember I pray that these are not places meerly of favour the charge of souls lies upon them the greatest account whereof will be required at their own hands but they will share deeply in their faults who are the instruments of their Preferment 8. Besides the Romish Catholicks there is a generation of Sectaries the Anabaptists Brownists and others of their kinds they have been several times very busie in this Kingdom under the colour of zeal for reformation of Religion The King your Master knows their disposion very well a small touch will put him in mind of them he had experience of them in Scotland I hope he will beware of them in England a little countenance or connivency sets them on fire 9. Order and decent ceremonies in the Church are not only comely but commendable but there must be great care not to introduce innovations they will quickly prove scandalous men are naturally over-prone to suspition the true Protestant Religion is seated in the golden mean the enemies unto her are the extreams on either hand 10. The persons of Church-men are to be had in due respect for their works sake and protected from scorn but if a Clergie man be loose and scandalous he must not be patronized nor winck't at the example of a few such corrupt many 11. Great care must be takan that the patrimony of the Church be not sacrilegiously diverted to lay uses His Majesty in his time hath religiously stopped a leak that did much harm and would else have done more Be sure as much as in you lies stop the like upon all occasions 12. Colledges and Schools of learning are to be cherished and encouraged there to breed up a new stock to furnish the Church and Common-wealth when the old store are transplanted This Kingdom hath in latter ages been famous for good literature and if preferment shall attend the deservers there will not want supplies Next to Religion let your care be to promote Justice By Justice and mercy is The Kings throne established 1. Let the rule of Justice be the Laws of the Land an impartial arbiter between the King and his people and between one Subject and another I shall not speak superlatively of them lest I be suspected of partiality in regard of my own profession but this I may truly say they are second to none in the Christian world 2. And as far as it may lie in you let no Arbitrary power be intruded the people of this Kingdome love

letters written on Friday at night at Reninghale came hither by which he signified the cause of his departure to be a vehement fear that he conceived by reports made to him that he should be committed to the Tower and therefore he did withdraw himself to have means to seek the Queens Majesties favor which he offered to do as a quiet humble subject Hereupon the same Sunday Mr. Edmund Garret was sent to him who found him at Reninghale on Munday at night in a servent Ague so as the Duke required respite untill Friday with which answer Mr. Garret returned and therewith the Queens Majesty was offended and began by reason also of other lewd tales brought to her Majesty to enter into no small jealousie and therefore sent again Mr. Garret with a peremptory commandment that he should come notwithstanding his Ague and so even now whilst I am writing I have word that Mr. Garret coming on Thursday at night found him ready to come of his own disposition and surely is now on the way whereof I am glad First for the respect of the State and next for the Duke himself whom of all subjects I honored and loved above the rest and surely found in him always matter so deserving Whilst this matter hath been in passing you must not think but the Queen of Scots was nearer looked to then before and though evil willers to our State would have gladly seen some troublesome issue of this matter yet God be thanked I trust they shall be deceived The Queens Majesty hath willed my Lord of Arundel and my Lord of Pembroke to keep their lodgings here for that they were privy of this marriage intended and did not reveal it to her Majesty but I think none of them so did with any evil meaning and of my Lord of Pembroke's intent herein I can witness that he meant nothing but well to the Queens Majesty my Lord Lumly also is restrained the Queens Majesty hath also been grievously offended with my Lord Leicester but considering he hath revealed all that he saith he knoweth of himself her Majesty spareth her displeasure the more towards him some disquiets must arise but I trust not hurtful for that her Majesty saith she will know the truth so as every one shall see his own fault and so stay Thus have I briefly run over a troublesome passage full of fears and jealousies God send her Majesty the quietness that she of her goodness desireth My Lord of Huntington is joyned with the Earl of Shrewsbury in charge for the Scotish Queens safety This 3. of October the Duke is come to Mr. Paul WentWorths house where Sir Henry Nevill hath charge to attend upon him I hope as I know no offence of untruth in him so the event of things will be moderate and so for my part I will endeavor all my power even for the Queens Majesties service I know there will be in that Court large discourses hereupon but I trust they shall lack their hope The Plague continueth in London the Term is prorogued untill All-halloutide All the former part of this letter hath been written these three days and stayed untill the Dukes coming Yours assuredly W. Cecil 3. Octob. 1569. To the Right honorable Sir Henry Norris Knight the Queens Majesties Ambassador Resident in France SIR EVen when this bearer was departing I heard that Crips your servant was come from you as far as Amiens or Abberville and there was faln sick but whether he hath any letters of yours or no I cannot tell I do mean to send one thither to see his estate and to bring your letters which will come very late and therefore I think we shall also have some later from you as soon as they shall come to my hands This bearer seemeth to be in Religion good enough but yet you know how he politickly serveth the French King Howsoever any evil bouts shall come thither at this present all the Realm is as yet as at any time it hath been and no doubt of the contrary and yet the Duke of Norfok is in custody and so are the Earl of Arundel and Lord Lumley but the Lord Steward onely keepeth his Chamber in the Court and I trust shall shortly do well And so I end Your assured friend W. Cecil Windsor-Castle 10. Oct. 1569. To the right honorable Sir Henry Norris Knight the Queens Majesties Ambassador Resident in France SIR AS you have with grief written your advises so have they with grief been received of us and yet in all these accidents of the world we must accept with humbleness the Ordinances of Almighty God and expect his further favor with patience and with prayer and intercession to move the Majesty of God to draw his heavy hand over us which is provoked by our sins Of our late matters here by the Queens Majesties letter you shall further understand which being as you see long I know you will well consider and advise how to express the same to the French King in the French tongue wherein we have this disadvantage that their Ministers speak in their own tongue and we in theirs Whatsoever you shall hear by lewd reports from hence assure your self that I know no cause to doubt but that all things are and will continue quiet The Queen of Scots I trust is and shall be so regarded as no trouble will arise thereof the Duke of Norfolk doth humbly accept the Queens Majesties dealings with him and I know of none that are thought to have favored his part but either they plainly alter their opinions and follow the Queens or if they do not so inwardly yet outwardly they yield to serve and follow her Majesty order Before you sent us your letters which you received from Spain concerning Ireland we had knowledge of the same from the same place and much more and have made provision to our power These your sinister accidents in France will cause some that were in a slumber here to awake and so beseeching you to pardon me if my letter be hasty and very short Yours assuredly W. Cecil Windsor-Castle 26. Oct. 1566. To the Right honorable Sir Henry Norris Knight the Queens Majesties Ambassador Resident in France SIR THis bearer your Footman having brought your letters hither a good while since is desirous to return though I think both the season of the year and the weather will not suffer him to make much haste yet I have thought good to let you partly to understand of the state of things here About the midst of the last moneth the Earls of Northumberland and Westmerland assembling themselves with some Companies after refusall to come in to the Lord President came to Duresme where they have made Proclamations in their own names for reformations of the disorders of the Realm as they termed it and for restitution of the ancient Customes and liberties of the Church and so directed the same generally to all of the old and Catholike Religion In their Companies

4. Time Perkin Warbeck in your Grandfathers But of all the most lively and proper is that of Lewis the French Kings Son in Henr. 3. Time who having at all no shew of Title yet did he cause the Nobility and more to swear direct Fealty and Vassalage and they delivered the strongest Holds unto him I say let these be sufficient to prove That occasion gives minds and scope to stranger things than ever would have been imagined If then the Affectionate side have their Affections weakned and the Discontented have a Gap to utter their Discontent I think it will seem an ill preparative for the Patient I mean your Estate to a great sickness Now the agent party which is Mounsieur whether he be not apt to work upon the disadvantage of your estate he is to be judged by his will and power His will to be as full of light ambition as is possible Besides the French disposition and his own Education his inconstant attempt against his brother his thrusting himself into the Low Country matters His sometime seeking the King of Spains Daughter sometimes your Majesty are evident testimonies of his being carried away with every wind of hope Taught to love greatness any way gotten And having for the motioners and Ministers of the mind only such young men as have shewed they think evil contentment a ground of any Rebellion who have seen no Common-wealth but in faction and divers of which have defiled their hands in odious Murthers with such fancies and favourites what is to be hoped for or that he will contain himself within the limits of your conditions since in truth it were strange that he that cannot be contented to be the second person in France and heir apparant should be content to come to be second person where he should pretend no way to Sovereignty His power I imagine is not to be despised since he is come into a Countrey where the way of Evil-doing will be presented unto him Where there needs nothing but a head to draw together all the ill-affected Members Himself a Prince of great Revenues of the most popular Nation of the world full of Souldiery and such as are used to serve without pay so as they may have shew of spoil and without question shall have his brother ready to help him as well for old revenge as to divert him from troubling France and to deliver his own Countrey from evil humors Neither is King Philips Marriage herein any example Since then it was between two of one Religion so that he in England stood only upon her strength and had abroad King Henry of France ready to impeach any enterprize he should make for his greatness that way And yet what events time would have brought forth of that Marriage your most blessed Reign hath made vain all such considerations But things holding in present state I think I may easily conclude that your Countrey as well by long peace and fruits of peace as by the poyson of division wherewith the faithful shall by this means be wounded and the contrary enabled made fit to receive hurt and Mounsieur being every way likely to use the occasions to hurt there can almost happen no worldly thing of more eminent danger to your estate Royal. And as to your person in the scale of your happiness what good there may come by it to ballance with the loss of so honourable a constancy truly yet I preceive not I will not shew so much malice as to Object the universal doubt the Races unhealthfulness neither will I lay to his charge the Ague-like manner of proceedings sometimes hot sometimes cold in the time of pursuit which alwayes rightly is most ferven And I wil temper my speeches from my other unreverend disgracings of him in particular though they might be never so true this only will say that if he do come hither he must live here in far meaner reputation then his mind will well brook having no other Royalty to countenance himself with or else you must deliver him the keyes of your Kingdom and live at his discretion or lastly he must be separate himself with more dishonour and further disuniting of heart than ever before often have heard you with protestation say No private pleasure nor self-affection could lead you unto it but if it be both unprofitable for your Kingdom and unple sant to you certainly it were a dear purchase of Repentance Nothing can it add unto you but the bliss of children which I confess were a most unspeakable comfort But yet no more appertaining unto him then to any other to whom the height of all good haps were alloted to be your Husband and therefore I may assuredly affirm that what good soever can follow Marriage is no more his than any bodies but the evils and dangers are peculiarly annexed to his person and Condition For as for the enriching of your Countrey with treasure which either he hath not or hath otherwise bestowed it or the staying of your servants minds with new expectation and liberality which is more dangerous than fruitful or the easing of your Majesty of cares which is as much to say as the easing of you to be Queen and Sovereign I think every body perceives this way either to be full of hurt or void of help Now resteth to consider what be the motives of this sudden change as I have heard you in most sweet words deliver fear of standing alone in respect of forreign dealings and in them from whom you should have respect doubt of contempt Truly standing alone with good fore-sight of Government both in peace and warlike defence is the honourablest thing that can be to a well established Monarchy Those buildings being ever most strongly durable which lean to none other but remain from their own foundation So yet in the particulars of your estate presently I will not altogether deny that a true Massinissa were very fit to countermine the enterprize of Mighty Carthage But how this general truth can be applyed unto Mounsier intruth I perceive not The wisest that have given best rules where surest Leagues are to be made have said That it must be between such as either vehement desire of a third thing or as vehement fear doth knit their minds together Desire is counted the weaker Bond but yet that bound so many Princes to the Expedition of the Holy Land It united that invincible Hen. 5. and that good Duke of Burgundy The one desiring to win the Crown of France from the Dauphin The other desiring to revenge his Fathers Murther upon the Dauphin which both tended to one That coupled Lewis the Twelfth and Ferdinando of Spain to the Conquest of Naples Of fear there are innumerable Examples Mounsieurs desires and yours how they should meet in Publick matters I think no Oracle can tell For as the Geometricians say That Parallels because they maintain divers lines can never join so truly two having in the beginning

justly say evil of you which whether your Majesty have not done I leave it in you to the sincereness of your own Conscience and wisdom of your judgment in the world to your most manifest fruits and fame through Europe Augustus was told that men spake of him much hurt it is no matter said he so long as they cannot do much hurt And lastly Charles 5th to one that told him Le Holladour parlent mal mais Ilz. patient bien answered Le. I might make a Scholar-like reckoning of many such Examples It sufficeth that these great Princes knew well enough upon what wayes they flew and cared little for the barking of a few Currs And truly in the behalf of your subjects I durst with my blood answer it That there was never Monarch held in more precious reckoning of her people and before God how can it be otherwise For mine own part when I hear some lost wretch hath defiled such a name with his mouth I consider the right name of Blasphemy whose unbridled soul doth delight to deprave that which is accounted generally most high and holy No no most excellent Lady do not raze out the impression you have made in such a multitude of hearts and let not the scum of such vile minds bear any witness against your subjects devotions Which to proceed one point further if it were otherwise could little be helped but rather nourished and in effect begun by this The only means of avoiding contempt are Love and Fear Love as you have by divers means sent into the depth of their sousl so if any thing can stain so true a form it must be the trimming your self not in your own likeness but in new colours unto them Their fear by him cannot be increased without appearance of French Forces the manifest death of your estate but well may it against him bear that face which as the Tragick Seneca saith Metus in Authorem redit as because both in will and power he is like enough to do harm Since then it is dangerous for your State as well because by inward weakness principally caused by division it is fit to receive harm Since to your person it can no way be comfortable you not desiring marriage and neither to person nor state he is to bring any more good than any body but more evil he may since the causes that should drive you to this are either fears of that which cannot happen or by this means cannot be prevented I do with most humble heart say unto your Majesty having assayed this dangerous help for your standing alone you must take it for a singular Honour God hath done you to be indeed the only Protector of his Church and yet in worldly Respects your Kingdom very sufficient so to do if you make that Religion upon which you stand to carry the only strength and have aboard those that still maintain the same course who aslongas they may be kept from utter falling your Majesty is sure enough from your mightiest Enemies As for this man as long as he is but Mounsieur in Might and a Papist in Profession he neither can nor will greatly shield you And if he grow to be King his defence will be like Ajax shield which rather weighed them down than defended those that bare it Against Contempt if there be any which I will never believe let your excellent vertues of Piety Justice and Liberality daily if it be possible more and more shine let such particular actions be found out which be easie as I think to be done by which you may gratifie all the hearts of your people Let those in whom you find Trust and to whom you have committed Trust in your weighty Affairs be held up in the eyes of your Subjects Lastly doing as you do you shall be as you be the Example of Princes the Ornament of this Age the Comfort of the Afflicted the Delight of your People and the most excellent Fruit of your Progenitors and the perfect Mirror of your Posterity My Lord Sanquir's Case IN this cause of the life and death the Juries part is in effect discharged for after a frank and formal Confession their labour is at an end so that what hath been said by Mr. Attorney or shall be said by my self is rather convenient than necessary My Lord Sanquire your fault is great it cannot be extenuated and it cannot be aggravated and if it needed you have made so full an Anatomy of it out of your own feeling as it cannot be matched by my self or any man else out of Conceit So as that part of aggravation I leave Nay more this Christian and penitent course of yours draws me thus far that I will agree in some sort to extenuate it for certainly as even in extream evils there are degrees so this particular of your offence is such as though it be soul spilling of blood yet there are more soul for if you had sought to take a way a mans life for his Vineyard as Achab did or for envie as Cain did or to possesse his bed as David did surely the murder had been more odious Your temptation was revenge which the more natural it was to man the more have Laws both divine and humane sought to repress it Mihi vindicta But in one thing you and I shall never agree That generous spirits you say are hard to forgive no contrariwise generous and magnanimous minds are readiest to forgive and it is a weakness and impotency of mind to be unable to forgive Corpora magnanimo satis est prostrasse Leoni But howsoever Murther may arise from several motives less or more odious yet the Law both of God and man involves them in one degree and therefore you may read that in Joabs case which was a Murther upon revenge and matcheth with our case he for a dear brother and you for a dear part of your own body yet there was never a severe charge given that it should not be unpunished And certainly the circumstance of time is heavy upon you it is now five years since this unfortunate man Turner be it upon accident or be it upon despight gave the provocation which was the seed of your malice all passions are asswaged with time love hatred grief all fire it self burns out with time if no new fuel be put to it Therefore for you to have been in the gall of bitterness so long and to have been in restless Chase of this blood so many years is a strange example and I must tell you plainly that I conceive you have suckt those affections of dwelling in malice rather out of Italy and Outlandish manners where you have conversed than out of any part of this Island England or Scotland But that which is fittest for me to spend time in the matter being confessed is to set forth and magnifie to the hearers the Justice of this day first of God and then of the King My Lord you have friends and

Mistriss shall have me in her hands to do her will of me and if she be so hard-hearted as to desire my end she may then do her pleasure and make sacrifice of me peradventure that casualty might be better for me than to live in this matter quoth she Gods will be fulfilled I answered she might amend all this matter if she would and find more Amity of your Majesty and your Realm than of any other Prince or Countrey The Queen answered I have me thinketh offered and spoken that that might suffice the Queen my Sister if she will take any thing well at my hand I trust said she for all this we shall agree better than some would have us and for my part I will not take all things to the worst I hope also said she the Queen my Sister and Cosin will do the like whereof quoth she I doubt not if Ministers do no harm betwixt us and so the said Queen embraced me This is the sum of my Negotiations at these my last Audiences with the French King the Queen-Mother the King of Navarre the Queen of Scotland and the Constable whereof I have thought meet to enlarge to your Majesty in such fort as the same passed and was uttered betwixt us As far as I can perceive the said Queen of Scotland continueth her Voyage still and I hear that Villageigmon and Octavian have the principal order of her said Voyage and mean to sail along the Coast of Flanders and so to strike over to the North-part of Scotland as the wind shall serve she did once mean to use the West-passage but now she dares not trust the Duke of Chastillerault nor the Earl of Arguile and therefore dareth not to pass by the West-Seas The said Queen as I hear desireth to borrow of the French King a hundred thousand Crowns the same to be received again of her Dowry which is twenty eight thousand Crowns by the year the Queen-Mother is willing to help her the King of Navarre doth not further the matter but seeketh to abridge the sum After I had done my Negotiations at the Court I was constrained to dislodge from Poissey for the Assembly of the Clergy who meet there to the end of this month and the Ambassadours are now appointed to lodge at Paris The Queen of Scotland departed from St. Germanes yesterday 25. of July towards her Voyage as she bruiteth it she sendeth most of her Train strait to New-haven to embark and she herself goeth such a way between both as she will be at her choice to go to New-Haven or to Callis upon the sudden what she will do or where she will embark she will be acknown to never a Scotch man and but to few French And for all these shews and boasts some think she will not go at all and yet all her stuff is sent down to the Sea and none other bruit in her house but of her hasty going if it would please your Majesty to cause some to be sent privily to all the Ports on this side the certainty shall be better known to your Majesty that way by the laying of her vessels than I can advertise it hence She hath said that at her coming into Scotland she will forthwith rid the Realm of all the English men there namely of your Majesties Agent there and forbid mutual Traffick with your Majesties Subjects if she make the haste to embark that she seemeth to do she will be almost ready to embark by that time this shall come to your Majesties hands Two or three dayes ago the French King was troubled with a pain in his head and the same beginneth to break from him by bleeding at the nose and running at his ear it is taken to be the same disease in his head whereof his brother died but by voiding it which the other could not do that organ being stopped this King is well amended At the dispatch hereof the King of Navarre was unquieted by a flux and a vomit and the Queen Mother with a Fever I hear that in Gascony the people stir apace for Religion as they do in many other places and being there assembled to the number of four thousand have entred a Town thrown down the Images and put out the Priests and will suffer no Masse to be said there My Lord of Levistou being ready to go homewards into Scotland through England went to the Queen of Scotland for his leave so to do but she hath commanded him to tarry and wait on her and to meet her at Abevillo without letting him know any thing else he in doubt what she will do is content to expect her coming thither and to do then as she shall command him and seeing no likelihood of her short passing which he sath is uncertain but that she will go to Callis there to hover and hearken what your Majesty doth to stop her and according thereunto to go or stay he mindeth to get him home he hath required my Letters of recommendations to your Majesties Officers at his landing in England which for his good devotion towards your Majesty and for that he is one that wisheth the same well I have not refused him and so humbly beseech your Majesties good favour towards him at his coming to your Majesty for his Pass-port Here is a bruit that the Turk is greatly impeached both by a sort of Jewes within his own Countrey and also by the Sophy And thus I pray God long to preserve your Majesty in health honour and all felicity from Paris July 26. 1561.
