| A52346 | How their Prince and King was call''d? |
| A52346 | Of how many Provinces it consisted, and how remote from Portugal? |
| A52346 | The Iesuit therefore ask''d the Ambassadors, at the Command of the Rix- Chancellor, Whether the Prince of Orange was yet in being? |
| A52346 | Their Names and former Employments? |
| A52346 | They ask''d likewise, Whether all the Presents they had brought with them came directly out of Holland? |
| A52346 | They ask''d moreover, whether the Netherland Government had lasted 1655 Years? |
| A52346 | They began again to move several Questions to the Ambassadors, asking them, How many years they had been Married? |
| A52346 | They then ask''d the Ambassadors, What Offices do you bear in the Court of your Prince? |
| A52346 | What Presents we had brought in particular for the Emperor? |
| A52346 | What manner of Wares and Merchandises we had brought with us? |
| A52346 | When that Power began? |
| A52346 | When, by whom, as also to what end the Letters were written, and the Ambassadors address''d themselves? |
| A52346 | Where is the Refuge and Sanctuary of Religion but in this City, which is gloriously call''d The Name of God? |
| A52346 | Wherefore, and to what end they were chiefly sent? |
| A52346 | Whether they were all of one and the same Religion? |
| A52346 | Who was Aboard the other Ship, and how they came to separate from us? |
| A52346 | Why Waggenaar was desirous to speak with the Vice- Roy? |
| A52346 | Why they did not come the last last Year? |
| A52346 | and Whether they us''d Beads in their Ejaculations after the Portugese manner? |
| A52346 | and how far from China? |
| A52346 | and if it began at that time? |
| A52346 | and what Form of Government they had among them? |
| A52346 | and what his Business was? |
| A52346 | and whether he had brought any Letters or Presents for the Great Cham at Peking, and for the Mandoring Toutang at Canton? |
| A52346 | and whether their High and Mighty Lordships did still Govern the State of the United Provinces? |
| A52346 | and whose Country lay nearest to China? |
| A52346 | as also, how many days Voyage between Holland and Peking? |
| A52346 | as likewise, If they had no Copy of the Letter to the Emperor? |
| A52346 | how their Prince was call''d? |
| A52346 | where situated? |
| A52346 | who then can blame me, if I forget that Obedience which I owe to you? |
| A36497 | AM I awake? |
| A36497 | And can any Prince then think it strange, if his Majesty of England suffer his subjects to rescue themselves from such continual Vexations? |
| A36497 | And could more be said or done for their Satisfaction? |
| A36497 | And did not the said Envoy Extraordinary upon the Twenty seventh day of July last, deliver a Memorial to them to the like Effect? |
| A36497 | And is it then to be wondred, that His Majesty shews Himself a little Concerned? |
| A36497 | And which that is your Wisdoms, may easily resolve from the dispute, his Royal Highness, and the incomparable Rupert gave your Meenhere, Opdam? |
| A36497 | Do I behold that Mars, that Man Divine, The Worlds great Glory, by these Waves of mine? |
| A36497 | How have they stood in defence of their violent and unjust proceedings; and instead of redressing their Injuries, they have encreased them? |
| A36497 | Lastly, all this considered, why may not his Majesty assume to himself, the rights of disposure and regulation of that which is undoubtedly his own? |
| A36497 | Nay, in all, they hold so true a proportion with the Emmet, as you shall not find that they want so much as the sting? |
| A36497 | Or have some Dreams conspir''d, To mock my Sense, with what I most desir''d? |
| A36497 | Or is it now to be doubted, who is the Attacquer or Aggressor? |
| A36497 | These things being so, can there be any doubt who is the Attacquer or Aggressor? |
| A36497 | To what a height will this insolence and perfidiousness of theirs arrive to, if not timely check''t and prevented? |
| A36497 | View I th''undaunted Face, See I those looks, Which with Delight were wo nt t''amaze my Brooks? |
| A36497 | What a trifle is this? |
| A36497 | What other Alliance can afford you so safe Harbourage in case of foul weather at Sea, as England, Scotland and Ireland? |
| A36497 | Wherein Holland, canst thou glory? |
| A36497 | Whether Democracy be not the best Government for the Low Countries, since there had need be many to rule such a Rabble of rude ones? |
| A36497 | Whether the Dutch place their Republick in a higher esteem than Heaven it self, by their boundless Toleration; and had rather cross upon God than it? |
| A36497 | Whether the Hollander was not bred before Manners were in Fashion, and that makes his conditions as Boorishly- churlish as his breeder Neptune? |
| A36497 | Whether the World may not afford Us and You, a sufficient trade without intruding, or encroaching on each others Interests? |
| A36497 | Whether there is under Heaven such a Den of several Serpents as Amsterdam is? |
| A36497 | Yea, could their Lordships Themselves within their own Countries demand more of any of their Schepens, or most Inferior Court of Justice? |
| A36497 | and what might have been expected that they would have said to it? |
| A36497 | and why may he not take, till by you, that never- questioned style of Lord of the British Ocean? |
| A36497 | not with colouring it with a charitable Protection? |
| A36497 | your Messengers in the same quality but narrowly escap''d the Gallowes, when they went with their Petition to his Catholick Majesty? |
| A61706 | And indeed, What was there apparent that men could justly blame? |
| A61706 | But I pray, what severitie is in this Censure of the Inquisitours, that is not in my Fathers Edicts? |
| A61706 | But peradventure when one man was cast overboard, it laid the wind which raised that popular Tempest? |
| A61706 | But what kind of men are they that have raised this storm in the Low- countreys? |
| A61706 | But what motive was in France? |
| A61706 | But what need more words? |
| A61706 | But when our Souldiers were disbanded, were the people quieted? |
| A61706 | But why do I quote so many Presidents, when that one of Catilines Conspiracy evidently shews, what liberty a Historian may assume? |
| A61706 | Can any one doubt whither all these excessive bounties and promises tend, wherewith that princely Merchant loads men of merit, and no merit? |
| A61706 | Could gallant men find no other place but that to exercise their valour in? |
| A61706 | Do you not see the Ensigne of Death, the Rodde and Wisp before the door? |
| A61706 | For what, I pray you, have our men all this while effected in the Netherlands? |
| A61706 | His Majesty raised the boy with his hand, and smiling, asked him if he knew his Father? |
| A61706 | His death, whether poysoned or no? |
| A61706 | How destructive was this to his affairs? |
| A61706 | If it be disputed by the sword, can our men and theirs have other thoughts, then such as are familiar to the Conquerours, and the conquered? |
| A61706 | Indeed how could the Merchants and Artificers brooke the payment of many tenth parts out of one Commodity? |
| A61706 | It was likewise considerable, Where the Spaniards should have pay? |
| A61706 | Or say our valour force their Trenches? |
| A61706 | The Consistories of Antwerp, being distracted into factions; what had they yet done? |
| A61706 | Then it was to be considered, whether they should be kept in their winter quarters in a body? |
| A61706 | Then what unknown sea- coasts and Regions beyond the Line, hath not the Hollander discovered? |
| A61706 | They article with an armed Governour, what will they do when he is disarmed? |
| A61706 | Was this the reward of service done in the late warres by the Low- countrey Lords, for defence of his Authority in the Netherlands? |
| A61706 | What did they intend? |
| A61706 | What dregs of the people, what vile and abject fugitives, and Apostates from Religion? |
| A61706 | What of Serapis? |
| A61706 | What? |
| A61706 | When the Gangrene of Heresie daily creeps upon new parts of the Common- wealth, should we remissely use fire and incision? |
| A61706 | Who cou ● d be now expected or from whence, to come and raise the Siege? |
| A61706 | Why do they condemn those Acts which they did once approve: and which they know were established by the suffrages of all? |
| A61706 | Why hath he got a Guard, if he be so popular as wholly to confide in the affection of the Subject? |
| A61706 | Why that new addition of Inquisitors? |
| A61706 | Why then do they now accuse the severity of the Emperour? |
| A61706 | Why then should they seek out persons profusely to bestow their money on, and in the mean time injuriously passe by those to whom it was iustly due? |
| A61706 | Why therefore should it be thought unlawfull, that some penalties should be remitted, some changed? |
| A61706 | because the disease is more violent, must the remedie therefore be neglected, and that which reason perswades? |
| A61706 | but that would be insufferable to the City that should give them quarter: or whether they should be dispersed through the Provinces? |
| A61706 | how derogatory to the Royall Dignity? |
| A61706 | or so ill- natured and perfidious, as to reveal the Counsells of his Prince to the enemy? |
| A61706 | shall we presently promise our selves the Victory? |
| A61706 | the encrease of the number of the Bishops, or of their maintenance? |
| A61706 | what would the French the Italians and other Nations say, but that the Spanish Souldiers could be suffered to live no where? |
| A61706 | where the care of a Generall? |
| A42214 | 27, 28 He, with several other Lords, makes Parties; and why, 32 Arms commanded to be taken; and why? |
| A42214 | 39 Aurange: Prince desires to lay down all Offices, but not permitted 〈 ◊ 〉 and why? |
| A42214 | 4 ● He refuseth the New Oath; so doth Hochstraten; and why? |
| A42214 | And how do the Hollanders drive of Peace? |
| A42214 | And now, when the same Spaniards seek Amity and a League, shall we go to incense Philip? |
| A42214 | And what Country was able to receive all that should be Exiled? |
| A42214 | And what kind of Alliance must that be, whose very Branch must depend upon the pleasure of another? |
| A42214 | And who would desire to have him become an Enemy, who so lavishly wasts his Friends? |
| A42214 | At last, what should they now, being between Hope and Despair, avoid? |
| A42214 | But how many faults do attend where some few bear the Sway, and in how little time do they grow ripe? |
| A42214 | But you will say, Peace is now offered to us: I answer, It is so indeed: But, pray consider, what cause of War hath the French? |
| A42214 | Do we desire Peace? |
| A42214 | Do you look for an Army to come, to drive the Enemy out of their Trenches and Leaguer, whom they could not keep off? |
| A42214 | He is desired to take up Arms, but refuseth; and why? |
| A42214 | How easie will it be to land Men among so many difficulties? |
| A42214 | How many more have perished now by the Sword? |
| A42214 | How often, by that name, have the Kings Deputies interposed denuntiations? |
| A42214 | Is it a thing unknown, by whose Design chiefly the English were sollicited to Sedition? |
| A42214 | Is it the Kings your Allies? |
| A42214 | Let but this Question be answer''d, Whether is an Act of greater Valour to be afraid of, or fight with an Enemy? |
| A42214 | Must we go against the French? |
| A42214 | Or will it any whit diminish your Enemies Ambition? |
| A42214 | They that would shut up the Sea, and challenge Merchandise to themselves alone, what other thing do they then Pyrates, and Ingroffers of Provision? |
| A42214 | Thus the Walloons made a great addition of power to the Kings party: A People taking delight in Warre? |
| A42214 | To fight with the Turk, or keep other Forein Enemies in awe? |
| A42214 | To whom Philip craftily sent answer,( and how far will deceit prevail under the mask of simplicity?) |
| A42214 | We shall be left as Zu ● phen and Deventer; We have against all Reason, protracted the time beyond Hulste, and what hope have we? |
| A42214 | What, is the Example grown dubious, by increased Liberty, whom to regard best? |
| A42214 | Where could they, whom their own Country thought fit to expel ● hope for quiet in a strange Land? |
| A42214 | Who made Ireland Rebell, and caused the French oppose their lawfull King? |
| A42214 | Why would he permit so many Ships, the onely Wealth of that late flourishing Kingdom, to be taken and burned? |
| A42214 | Will therefore our Ruine add any thing to you, or to your strength? |
| A42214 | and if any could yet what safety could it hope for in such Multitudes? |
| A42214 | and whether is it more just and honourable, to take Tributes from our Subjects, or Booties from our Foes? |
| A42214 | how oft have we voluntarily fallen upon them? |
| A42214 | how often have the People of Cleves been commanded, that they should not give passage to the Enemy, contrary to the Articles made at Venlo? |
| A42214 | or what should they defend? |
| A42214 | p. 11. l. 26. r. is it? |
| A42214 | what Reward shall we receive of our obstinacy? |
| A42214 | whence come all these troubles 〈 ◊ 〉 Commotions, but from thence, that our fidelity hangs ambiguous between our Country and the Prince? |
| A36499 | And can they say, that in the forementioned answer it is disavowed? |
| A36499 | And did not he the said Envoy give this State a Copy thereof at their desire? |
| A36499 | And do they not here constantly, even in time of peace, grant Convoy to their Shipping for the Baltick, for France, and for London it self? |
| A36499 | And doth it not follow in the said Letter? |
| A36499 | And hath not such a Declaration been published? |
| A36499 | And have they not great Reason to expect, That upon such Informations, they should break with the King his Master, to joyn with them? |
| A36499 | And how is it then, That he had nothing to do with it? |
| A36499 | And how is it then, that they say here, That the English did not claim it till they had got the possession of it? |
| A36499 | And how then do the Deputies bring these two instances, as Arguments that this State had forgiven more than his Majesty? |
| A36499 | And is not that a fair Warning to all the Kings of Christendom, to let them know what they are in time to expect in these Parts also? |
| A36499 | And now, I pray, doth this Letter contradict or interfere, in the least, with what had been said by him in his Memorial? |
| A36499 | And shall such a Resolution be Printed and published, and given to other Ministers by them, and can it be said that he had nothing to do with it? |
| A36499 | And suppose such an Article had not been made, would not the inconveniences and dangers have been greater on the other hand? |
| A36499 | And was not that then true? |
| A36499 | And was this a small Equipage? |
| A36499 | And what occasion given for all those reviling expressions which they are pleased here to make use of? |
| A36499 | And what though there had been no other Provocation but this very Resolution? |
| A36499 | First, That the Dutch did actually pay down to the Natives a sum of money for their encouragement? |
| A36499 | If they think fit to return that way, and to be at the Expence of Convoyes for their Shipping, What is that to the English? |
| A36499 | Is insisting that the person offending be proceeded against according as it is set down in the Treaty, a protecting of him? |
| A36499 | Is the defeating of so many Ships of East India and African Voyages a small matter? |
| A36499 | Is the submitting them for a certain time to a course of Justice, an authorising of them? |
| A36499 | Is there no medium between authorising of them, and the forbidding the having recourse to force for a certain time? |
| A36499 | Is this a business to be referr''d to such, or to any Arbitrage? |
| A36499 | Old stile, deduce and make out the right of the English African- Company to that place? |
| A36499 | Secondly, Seeing the Ship concerning the stopping whereof he complains was of Gottenburgh; What had he the said Envoy to do to Intermeddle therein? |
| A36499 | Secondly, Whether they were of such a Nature and Quality as may be thought fit to be referred to such Arbitration? |
| A36499 | That which is just in the Indies, can not be unjust in Europe? |
| A36499 | To inform duly the Kings their Allies of the true Estate of Affairs between the King His Master, and them? |
| A36499 | What though he had not therein bid us be gone out of any place? |
| A36499 | What, not one Ship taken before the Treaty, that the English could reclaim as belonging Effectually to them? |
| A36499 | Whereas what is this to the English? |
| A36499 | Would they approve thereof, or suffer the same? |
| A36499 | and can any of them say yet to this day, that it is restored? |
| A36499 | and did they not do it accordingly until the time of De Ruyters quitting those parts? |
| A36499 | and how he could know the King''s Picture and image thereupon from another? |
| A36499 | and might they not be retorted in the highest manner, if one took pleasure in sullying his Mouth or Pen? |
| A36499 | and what accompt is hereafter to be made of any of their Declarations as to the imployments of their Fleets? |
| A36499 | and yet what doth their Resolution of the 25 th of September say more then their former? |
| A36499 | did they not send armed Men to an English Town called Greenwitch, and force the English there to come under them? |
| A36499 | or is this a proper preparatory and Introduction to that Extraordinary Embassy from France to England for that End? |
| A36499 | the 11 th, That These Pretensions are not so clear, but that they may be disputed? |
| A36499 | was not this alone enough to have warranted his Majesty to have fallen upon them, both in Europe and elsewhere? |
| A36499 | which was near two years after; and was that a convenient time to be spent meerly for the giving in of what they had to demand? |
| A61878 | And how can it be conceived for us to joyn or unite our selves more strictly to others, then we are amongst our selves? |
| A61878 | And how vehemently ought We to apprehend, lest their States General do grow too High and Mighty for Us? |
| A61878 | And with what delayes did they protract the Treaty? |
| A61878 | And, Whether it were lawful to Persecute any in cases of Religion, with Imprisoning, or Banishment? |
| A61878 | Are you so wretchedly poor and weak, who have a greater stock left then Rome had to erect its Empire upon? |
| A61878 | As to the FREE USE OF THE SEAS, who can tell the signification thereof? |
| A61878 | At another time, it would have seemed strange, that a Common- Lawyer should doubt whither the Sea be a part of the King''s Dominions? |
| A61878 | But this not being our condition at present, the next Debate is, Whether we ought to adhere to the United Provinces, or to France? |
| A61878 | But, ought We not also also to apprehend their immoderate growth in strength? |
| A61878 | Calamities are Calamities when they doe befall us, why do we anticipate them, and make our selves rea ● … ly unhappy under imaginary evils? |
| A61878 | Did not Abraham covenant with Abimelech both for himself and his Posterity? |
| A61878 | Did not the House of Brandenburgh do the like? |
| A61878 | Do we not find the Dutch assisting the French King against the Protestants of Rochel? |
| A61878 | Do we not read of Maurice Duke of Saxony assisting Charles the Fifth against the other Protestants? |
| A61878 | Do we not see in holy Writ, how the Patriarchs, and the most renowned Kings of Juda, have authorized this Doctrine by their Example? |
| A61878 | Doe we think to convert Men by Satyrs? |
| A61878 | Doth it include our Ports, and Chanels, and those Seas called the King''s Chambers? |
| A61878 | Doth it include the Fishing without License, or Custome? |
| A61878 | France subsists without the Regiment of the Sea, and why may not we as well want the same? |
| A61878 | Have not the Danes fought against the Swedes by confederation with Poland, and the Emperour? |
| A61878 | How often did the Emperours of Constantinople, the Kings of Spain and France, contract for the assistance of the Sarracens against Christians? |
| A61878 | How strange is it that in such a Foppery even Old Rome, and Greece, Christendome and Turky should agree? |
| A61878 | How unheartily, and dilatorily did you deal with our Embassadours at the Hague in relation to their Errand? |
| A61878 | How vain is their Immemorial possession? |
| A61878 | If there be no Trading, how little will the difference be betwixt the alienation of Church- lands, and the receiving no Rents from them? |
| A61878 | If there can be any dispute, it is this onely, Whether Adrian Crynsen had power to make any such Capitulations with those of Su ● … inam? |
| A61878 | Is it in reference to Navigation of Merchants onely, or of what Fleets they please? |
| A61878 | Is not Mony the Nerves of War? |
| A61878 | May We not justly apprehend by this, and their Arrogance at Munster, that they will claim precedence of all, or most Kings? |
| A61878 | Or, to indulge them for a time, and by more gentle meanes to contrive and pursue their conversion? |
| A61878 | Quantum inde vulnus aerariis Regis inflictum sit, quid attinet dicere, cùm res ipsa omni testificatione luculentius clamet? |
| A61878 | Shall We be able to live more quietly and securely? |
| A61878 | Shall our Merchants Trade more peaceably? |
| A61878 | The question is, Whither it be best to perpetuate; or dispel our Fears? |
| A61878 | To what advantage will the Conclusion of any thing be, or what encouragement is there for any proceeds in things of that nature? |
| A61878 | To what height will their Pride hereafter transport them? |
| A61878 | Was not that of the Babylonish Captives different from the Worship of the Persians? |
| A61878 | Was not the Religion of the Alexandrian Iewes and Christians different from that of the Romans, and AEgyptians? |
| A61878 | Were not the Religions of the Noachidae, or Proselites for inhabitation and that of the Circumcised Jewes quite different? |
| A61878 | What Fooles have been the Emperours and Kings of the world to insist so much thereon? |
| A61878 | What an impudent lye was this? |
| A61878 | What can be objected against this Reason? |
| A61878 | What foundation of a lasting and intimate Union, if the proper Rights were not antecedently determined of? |
| A61878 | What imports it, whither a Law, be suspended by Practice, or Declaration? |
| A61878 | What is it to overcome on Earth in the name of God, then that the peaceable Believers should undergo the outrages of the wicked? |
| A61878 | What necessary connexion is there betwixt Schisme, Heresie and Rebellion? |
| A61878 | When your Embassado ● … rs came hither, How amicably we ● … e they received? |
| A61878 | Whence is derived this new mode, of rendring evil for evil? |
| A61878 | Wherein have you demonstrated the least sincerity in your Negotiations with this Common- wealth? |
| A61878 | Which if he had assented unto, what Debates would it have occasioned amongst the Lawyers, and in Parliament, con- the giving up of such a Royalty? |
| A61878 | Which is the most secure course? |
| A61878 | Which of them hath not combined with the Hereticks, and made use of their assistance against their Enemies, though of the same Religion with them? |
| A61878 | Which of these Realms hath not confederated with the Turks to invade the Christians? |
| A61878 | Why did He ordain this by a formal Law, and Edict? |
| A61878 | Why must diversity of Religions introduce Civil dissentious unavoidably? |
| A61878 | Will it never be construed so as to exclude the carrying Contra- band Goods to our Enemies? |
| A61878 | Will they become- less Avaricious, less Insolent, less Treacherous by those fair additions? |
| A61878 | Will they change their natures, and principles with new accessionals of Power? |
| A61878 | and how unseasonably is it inserted amidst so much sanctified language? |
| A61878 | and is it not in long Wars, as in long wrestlings and scuffles, where the Victory depends upon the strength of the sinewes? |
| A61878 | and that they may import in what Vessels they will what Goods they please, and that paying what Customes they judge meet? |
| A61878 | as also with the Canaanites? |
| A61878 | do we think to reconcile affairs by repeating matters? |
| A61878 | of cursing them that perhaps do not curse us? |
| A61878 | or make men love us, by proclaiming them for Hypocrites ungovernable, and intolerable Sectaries? |
| A61878 | or winn upon English Spirits by contumelious language? |
| A61878 | was not Lot confederate with the King of Sodom, and went to War in his Company? |
| A61878 | which is not worth the regarding? |
| A27415 | An obedience notwithstanding which she hath very will deserved of them: For what Princess was there ever seen of a more masculine spirit? |
| A27415 | And are they not overcome, if after having lost the passage of the River, we keep the passage of the Counterdike likewise shut up? |
| A27415 | And as for the Castle which Targone proposed, what foundation could there be for such a machine? |
| A27415 | And by the same reason have you not set your Provinces at Liberty by your own Authority? |
| A27415 | And could I appear more moderate then in refusing the Soveraignty which the United Provinces did so freely and unanimously offer me? |
| A27415 | And every day add to our ecquisitions in Picardy? |
| A27415 | And finally, faulty to himselfe, to his blood, to his honor, and to the so great danger of his Countrey? |
| A27415 | And for the happy success of the enterprise; why should not your Majesty assure your selfe thereof? |
| A27415 | And how could he with honour be under the Duke of Alva, who was but a bare Grandee of Spain? |
| A27415 | And how could they be sure, but that so many Forces of the Enemy might make further progress in those Frontiers? |
| A27415 | And how do they long to see an end of that bitter persecution which they suffer there? |
| A27415 | And how far are we already advanced with our trenches, with our batteries, with our works in the ditch, and with assaults? |
| A27415 | And how great in the so many Catholicks which were yet in England? |
| A27415 | And how great the profit which would be thereby got? |
| A27415 | And how great would their storm be? |
| A27415 | And how much better may France and England foment them now then they could have done formerly? |
| A27415 | And how much did it most import first to secure the Maritine Country? |
| A27415 | And how much doth this make for our advantage? |
| A27415 | And how much is England and our Province already joyned in Commerce? |
| A27415 | And how much more easily may we open their Counterdike? |
| A27415 | And how much to his dishonor, had he in particular relieved Zutfen? |
| A27415 | And how oft do we see oppression prove the ruine of the oppressor? |
| A27415 | And how oft have you from thence assisted the Catholicks of Germany? |
| A27415 | And how opportune for us ought their neighbourhood now to be thought? |
| A27415 | And if so, wherefore should not he hope to be preferr''d before all others? |
| A27415 | And if the Catholick Army should chance to be endangered, what other Forces had they to relieve them? |
| A27415 | And if we consider the Form of Government how much more conformable to ours is that of England then that of France? |
| A27415 | And in these his last so potent Powers, what could he do more, then almost wholly abandon his own particular affairs of Flanders? |
| A27415 | And in this case, how glorious would the victory be? |
| A27415 | And more of late at Reinberg, when, did he shew any true good will thereunto? |
| A27415 | And now, having so justifiable a pretence, how much more might that King foment it? |
| A27415 | And say he had a minde to have hindred it at the beginning; what colour, or what pretence had he so to do? |
| A27415 | And say such a losse should insue, what new acquisitions would the Confederate Provinces hope to make? |
| A27415 | And shall all our most advantagious successes, depend alwaies upon the so uncertain event of war? |
| A27415 | And shall we believe that the Spaniards can not still maintain it? |
| A27415 | And shall we expect any mercy at their hands? |
| A27415 | And shall we not then be deprived of all succour from thence? |
| A27415 | And that in such a case much more should be confest by you, then granted by them? |
| A27415 | And that the war on your side could not be more just, because it could not be more necessary? |
| A27415 | And that they are not likely to finde a remedy for their disorders in these parts; and for any hazard they may run in the East- Indies? |
| A27415 | And that they would first argue whether they have any right over you, or no? |
| A27415 | And then being enforced to have retreated by Sea, with how much advantage might the Enemy have assaulted us? |
| A27415 | And they being Masters of the Maritine parts, what advantages might they by other designes work unto themselves in the more inward Countries? |
| A27415 | And thus when the Kings forces shall be returned hither in their former vigour, how great shall our advantages be together with his? |
| A27415 | And to say truth, of what use may such an example be? |
| A27415 | And to say truth, what greater injury can he receive then this? |
| A27415 | And to shun the peril of a Siege, as is speciously pretended, shall we with greater danger receive Spaniards into this City? |
| A27415 | And truly what honour is not given to him even before your face? |
| A27415 | And what better occasion can we have to doe it, then to stir now whilst the French souldiers are imployed, and to call in the Spaniards? |
| A27415 | And what doubt was there but that when their Army should be drawn off the Enemy would return to besiege the City more stricktly? |
| A27415 | And what doubt was there to be made of it? |
| A27415 | And what else could Orange his faction desire? |
| A27415 | And what greater acquisition( said he) can we make? |
| A27415 | And what greater glory can we have, then to see battels more frequent here? |
| A27415 | And what more contemptible people can be found, then those whom we are now to assail? |
| A27415 | And what more imperious Minister of State could he leave behind him with the Dutchess of Parma, then the Cardinal Granville? |
| A27415 | And what more light pretence could be taken, then to go about to suppress those tumults, which were seen to cease almost assoon as begun? |
| A27415 | And what more unworthy thing could there be, then to make Religion subservient to the State? |
| A27415 | And what other more fitting Theatre could there be found for the seat of its Arms then Flanders? |
| A27415 | And what shall our deserts be hereby from God? |
| A27415 | And what shall we expect more? |
| A27415 | And what would Europe think of a King, who contented with his only home- victories, should suffer himself to be thus overcome by Forreign Forces? |
| A27415 | And where are the monies they premised you? |
| A27415 | And whether I shall live or dye, How can I live or dye more gloriously? |
| A27415 | And who can doubt it? |
| A27415 | And who could be better chosen to execute such violences then the Duke of Alva? |
| A27415 | And who knows not that in former times they both made but one body? |
| A27415 | And who knows this better then you, Sir? |
| A27415 | And who will now dispute the Swissers Liberty? |
| A27415 | And why should not we be as forward to provoke him to battel, as he is backward thereunto? |
| A27415 | And why should they not hope to find a friend of Fortune, since their Cause was so just? |
| A27415 | And will you lose this so happy occasion? |
| A27415 | And will your Highness sit down still by such a scorn? |
| A27415 | And with what intent? |
| A27415 | And with whom is it that we shall contend? |
| A27415 | And yet how faithfull had the Countrie apreared when the House of Nassaw was in arms? |
| A27415 | And yet how justly may I complain of so many injuries done to me by him? |
| A27415 | Are not all the confines of the Walloons, and half the Province of Flanders it self called more by the word Gallican, then Flemican? |
| A27415 | Are the affairs of Spain( said they) come to so low an ebb, that our King must abase himself thus? |
| A27415 | Are these errors learnt in the Duke of Alva''s Military school? |
| A27415 | At his coming into Flanders he made miracles be expected at his hands: but how soon were these miracles turned into shame? |
| A27415 | But how immence, how immoderate doth this thirst appear particularly in the Spaniards? |
| A27415 | But how oft had he already offended the Queen? |
| A27415 | But how was it possible to believe, that changing his principles, he should destroy his first ends, and serve in stead of commanding? |
| A27415 | But on the contrary, how firmly was heresie radicated, both in Holland and Zealand? |
| A27415 | But say that our men were landed in the Kingdom, how can we hope to establish them there? |
| A27415 | But suppose an Army be to be sent into Flanders; who will secure their passage? |
| A27415 | But suppose the King had been free of those suspitions; how should he have gone into Flanders by sea or by land? |
| A27415 | But what hope of good success could they have herein? |
| A27415 | But what need we look after past- times? |
| A27415 | But what? |
| A27415 | But when he shall want victuals, when his souldiery shall lessen, and when he shall despair of succour, how can be then hold longer out? |
| A27415 | But when the River should be block''d up either by the one or the other way, what hopes would there be to keep it? |
| A27415 | But when was it ever heard that in such a case the Mutiniers were esteemed Rebels? |
| A27415 | But where is there any appearance thereof? |
| A27415 | But why should they doubt victory? |
| A27415 | By which, how much will the King himself suffer? |
| A27415 | Can we ever believe that the Spaniards will use moderation? |
| A27415 | Did I say Minister of State? |
| A27415 | Did he ever demand any Towns or Hostages in pawn for his security? |
| A27415 | Did not he favour the Queen of Scots Cause as much as he might? |
| A27415 | Do not we know how much our war depends upon the aids from France and England? |
| A27415 | Do not we know that these wicked ones have entred the Country of Liege by force? |
| A27415 | Do not we know that they take them in such a sense as doth not take from them any pretended right to our Provinces? |
| A27415 | Do not we know what interpretation they have already given to those words? |
| A27415 | Do not we likewise know upon what fickle terms the affairs of England stand? |
| A27415 | Do not you know that they can grant nothing to the prejudice of their successors? |
| A27415 | Do not you see, that such like renouncings of right would presuppose it to be more manifest on their behalf? |
| A27415 | Do they think to find us asleep within our quarters? |
| A27415 | Do you observe how he uses the same subscription as he useth to his Vassals? |
| A27415 | Do you perceive how the King would have it sent in the Spanish tongue? |
| A27415 | Do you see how the Swissers have fared? |
| A27415 | Doe men go to assaults by the air? |
| A27415 | Doe not I here in mine own person represent the Prince my husband? |
| A27415 | Doe you see how rashly, and with how much arrogancie they come to assault us? |
| A27415 | Doth not this Army believe that they have the Duke of Alva still for their Commander? |
| A27415 | Doth not your Highness apprehend Count Maurice his rashness? |
| A27415 | Earl of Flanders, Holland and Zealand, and Lord of these Confederate Provinces? |
| A27415 | Every concern being then so united between the Flemish and the English, how could I abandon those, and not abandon these? |
| A27415 | Faulty in things so solemnly promis''d and sworn unto? |
| A27415 | Finally where is our glorious Orange, that true Father of his Country? |
| A27415 | Finally, to what worser end could affairs be brought? |
| A27415 | First, how can it be doubted but that the true sense and meaning of the Spanish tongue must be understood by us? |
| A27415 | For what greater felicity could he desire then to enjoy Spain with so much quiet? |
| A27415 | For what remains, how much is such a change to be desired? |
| A27415 | France being at peace within it self; and England which daily expects the King of Scots for their King? |
| A27415 | Had not they foreseen the evil which was now burst forth? |
| A27415 | Hath not the King treated him sometimes more like a Prisoner then like a Brother? |
| A27415 | Have not you alwaies declared, That you have taken up Arms against your Prince, infored thereto by necessity? |
| A27415 | Have we ever been able to take the field with any considerable Army? |
| A27415 | He will then be inforced to retreat by sea: which if he doe, how great will his disorder in imbarking be? |
| A27415 | Here, where the frequent commerce of so many of our Cities with all the Principal Cities of Europe, makes all Languages common and known? |
| A27415 | How could so miserable a condition be longer tollerated? |
| A27415 | How great a disposition was there generally thereunto in Ireland? |
| A27415 | How great a part of our Provinces do yet retain the French tongue? |
| A27415 | How great a part thereof does there already abound in our sense? |
| A27415 | How great wil the present plunder be for all of you? |
| A27415 | How had he offended them? |
| A27415 | How many Catholicks are there yet there? |
| A27415 | How many places had the Duke of Parma taken whilst he looked on? |
| A27415 | How many victories had Fuentes got the year before, sometimes by sieges, sometimes by open field- fight? |
| A27415 | How much advantagious will it be to raise a Fort there? |
| A27415 | How much are others thereby incouraged who prepare likewise to enter these Provinces by other parts? |
| A27415 | How much better souldiers do those Rebels daily grow? |
| A27415 | How much better would it be to dye with their swords in their hands, and by that way to attempt their return? |
| A27415 | How much better would those evils be remedied by fairmeans, then by fire and sword? |
| A27415 | How much did they exceed the enemy, especially in horse? |
| A27415 | How much hath Piety and Religion flourish''d formerly in that Kingdom? |
| A27415 | How much is the union of the Rebeis also encouraged by our weakness? |
| A27415 | How much more happie then is Germany, which enjoys her former libertie, and which abhorring all forein force, knows no other Empire then her own? |
| A27415 | How much more would she be so to feel the effects thereof? |
| A27415 | How much reputation would he thereby lose? |
| A27415 | How much worse would ours be? |
| A27415 | How much would other Cities be encouraged, if they should see the siege basely raised from before this? |
| A27415 | How much would the Malcontents of the Kingdom be hereby incouraged? |
| A27415 | How much would the affairs of Spain be bettered by any of these accidents? |
| A27415 | How much would they then molest the Countrie every where? |
| A27415 | How oft do we cut off some one member for the welfare and safeguard of the rest of the body? |
| A27415 | How oft had their first Squadrons born it away? |
| A27415 | How oft have the Enemies past and repast with great Forces through this so jealous Confine between the two Germanies? |
| A27415 | How often have they threatned this City either by underhand dealings, or openly? |
| A27415 | How often, and with what prejudice to his authority hath he been inforced rather to yield to the will of others, then to use his own? |
| A27415 | How soon were we afterwards quit with him at Gimingen? |
| A27415 | How strong in all other respects is their situation? |
| A27415 | How will she foment the troubles in Flanders? |
| A27415 | How will the poorer sort of people be therewithall grieved? |
| A27415 | How would this relish in Spain? |
| A27415 | If otherwise, To what purpose should a new Principality be erected, if it were not to be maintained by the Forces of Spain? |
| A27415 | If this so advantagious an opertunity should be now lost, when should they ever expect the like? |
| A27415 | If war shall be made and the design not succeed, how much more will she oppress the Catholicks of England and of Ireland? |
| A27415 | If we be Free- men, why ought we not to be publickly acknowledged for such? |
| A27415 | In this case England and Ireland being incompassed therewith, why may we not fear that they may suffer the like evils as Flanders should have done? |
| A27415 | In this case what was to be done, but to have fought the Enemy by discommodiating them, and thus to have defeated them? |
| A27415 | Infest all the adjacent Country? |
| A27415 | Is he not already very old? |
| A27415 | Is not their rash perfidiousness come now to the greatest height? |
| A27415 | Is this that which they learn under my discipline? |
| A27415 | It may then be concluded, that the Spanish forces being in Flanders, will be always ready to enter Germany: and then what will your miseries be? |
| A27415 | Kingdoms can not otherwise make any contract, nor Kings make any alienable part therein? |
| A27415 | May not the English- House here in Antwerp, be envied by their own hamber of London? |
| A27415 | May not the King of France die? |
| A27415 | May not the Kingdom afterwards alter? |
| A27415 | Moreover, do not we know how great the inconstancie of the multitude is? |
| A27415 | Nay how great will his trouble and expence be to keep it? |
| A27415 | On the contrary side, how much both publick and private advantages, how much honour and glory shall our Common- wealth receive thereby? |
| A27415 | On the contrary, how heavie a burthen of war will your Majesty be to sustain? |
| A27415 | On the contrary, what greater adversity could befall him, then to see Flanders amidst so long and so horrible troubles? |
| A27415 | On the contrary, who is he in this our so antient Militia, who hath not either seen or done some egregious action? |
| A27415 | Onceby the Leagues Army without, and again within, by the Garison of the City? |
| A27415 | Ought we to pretend to more then what was then done to two so great Kings? |
| A27415 | Out of what fault shall we declare this Rebellion? |
| A27415 | Rashness is alwaies blind, and almost alwaies unfortunate in all humane actions; but how much more in Military, then in Civil Government? |
| A27415 | Roan, which is the second City of the Kingdom, and which will quickly give you entrance into the first? |
| A27415 | Say money was wanting to maintain them; must Germany therfore supply them? |
| A27415 | Shall it depend upon the Spaniards to allow us what sort of liberty they please, now that they can not impose that slavery upon us which they would? |
| A27415 | Shall not he ackowledge them, when all the world Treats with them as such? |
| A27415 | Shall not we be buried in water, dirt, and ditches, before we can come to assault them? |
| A27415 | Shall private Fraud be now thus falsly cloaked by publike Zeal? |
| A27415 | Shall the Enemy glory of being Conquerors, after they were conquered? |
| A27415 | Shall the Tyranny exercised by the Duke of Alva be thus adhered unto under pretence of Obedience due unto the King? |
| A27415 | Shall vain shadows prevail more with you then essential reasons? |
| A27415 | Shall we suffer these that are really rebels to God and the King, boast that thy have( though falsely laid the imputation of rebels upon us? |
| A27415 | Shall we then expect that this succour shall fall from the air? |
| A27415 | Shall you not have occasions enough to punish their perfidiousness? |
| A27415 | Should they peradventure, be Judges in such a cause? |
| A27415 | That France is now in great turmoyls can not be denyed; but what better remedy then this can be found out to rid her of them? |
| A27415 | That his Forces had been formerly formidable; but how much more now that he had gotten the Kingdom of Portugal? |
| A27415 | That notwithstanding when they should be brought face to face, why should not the like success be looked for from them both? |
| A27415 | That the King, under the name of the Dutchess of Parma, should make their Country be governed, and domineered over by the Cardinal Granville? |
| A27415 | That they had once already confer''d it upon the Duke of Alanson; and wherefore might they not now confer it upon the Queen? |
| A27415 | The City therefore remained in her former condition: And since then till now, I must ask again, when did she ever vary in her allegiance to the King? |
| A27415 | The King being a Scotch- man, a stranger in that Kingdom, and there being many other occasions which may cause some fear of alteration on his side? |
| A27415 | The King hath sworn to maintain our Countrey in her liberties: and what doth more destroy them then doth the Inquisition? |
| A27415 | The King himself hath for a long time been vers''d here in our customes: and what is more averse unto them then these his Edicts? |
| A27415 | The hunger of that ravenous Beast is still increased by food; and how much do mutinies devour? |
| A27415 | The people alter hourly: and who hath had better tryal hereof then your self? |
| A27415 | Then how many hardships had they undergone in the last siege? |
| A27415 | Then if you pretend upon so good grounds to be free, what need you now that the King of Spain and the Arch- Dukes should make these renouncings? |
| A27415 | Then to have so unfortunately lost that great Armado, which was to have assaulted England? |
| A27415 | Then, how many corruptions and disorders had been rooted in their Army? |
| A27415 | There remained then only the passage over the Sene: But how difficult and how dangerous would this be likewise to them? |
| A27415 | To what a rage will despair carry them? |
| A27415 | To what corner of the Earth, or of the Sea is it that the Fame of their Liberty together with the Fame of their Forces is not flown? |
| A27415 | To wit, a liberty more servile then our former servitude; since it must depend upon the interpretation of their own words? |
| A27415 | Was it not an accusing of the Councel of State of infidelity? |
| A27415 | Was there any doubt but that all those pretences were false which they had made use of to remove Granville from Flanders? |
| A27415 | Was this the fruit that they reaped by the Earl of Leicester''s Government? |
| A27415 | We, I say, whose hearts are with such candor seen in our words? |
| A27415 | Were not the Insurrections in Ireland fomented by him? |
| A27415 | Were not the past inventions sufficient to get monies, but that this of equalling Brass to Silver should be added? |
| A27415 | Were these the aids; were these the advantages which they expected from England? |
| A27415 | Were these to be the advantages; these the glories of two fields, which had cost so much Treasure, blood, and trouble? |
| A27415 | What Nation is there to be found which hath been longer trained up in Arms, more acquainted with blood and more accustomed to fight and overcome? |
| A27415 | What Victory( my fellow souldiers) was ever more certain, then that which we shall this day win upon the Spaniards? |
| A27415 | What a folly would it be( said he) for us to move? |
| A27415 | What are his continual machinations to the same purpose with the Catholicks in England? |
| A27415 | What damage was to be feared in the dark from rash and blind shooting? |
| A27415 | What darkness, what obscurity is it then that doth possess our senses? |
| A27415 | What defence is there now to keep our wealth from being devoured by the one or the other of those whirlpools? |
| A27415 | What did not Don Piedro di Tolledo Viceroy of Naples do? |
| A27415 | What difficulties would the succours then meet withall which should be sent by Sea from Spain to Flanders? |
| A27415 | What do the King of Spain and the Arch- dukes grant( said they) more then what the Vnited Provinces do already possess? |
| A27415 | What doth not the Prince of Orange do? |
| A27415 | What doth this Alarm, and this running to take up arms without any occasion, mean? |
| A27415 | What greater blovv could the Spaniards receive from us, then that which we have given them in the East- Indies? |
| A27415 | What hopes could they then have either of coming near La Fera; or by doing so, of introducing relief? |
| A27415 | What is it that doth not often turn from one to another species, when it hath left its former homely and simple nature? |
| A27415 | What other designe had his adherents? |
| A27415 | What other power hath at any time maintained so long, so far distant, so hard, and so expensive a war? |
| A27415 | What reason is there then that more fuel should be added to the fire of those tumults, when they ought rather to be quenched and deaded? |
| A27415 | What two other Towns could the Spaniards have desired, whereby they might receive more advantage in the affairs of France, both by sea and land? |
| A27415 | What was there then wanting but to see the Inquisition and the Edicts on foot again? |
| A27415 | What will our danger be when we shall be thus invironed by so great Forces on all sides? |
| A27415 | What will our pertinaciousness of not joyning with the rest, serve us for then? |
| A27415 | What will the other prove vvhich vve are preparing for them likevvise in the West? |
| A27415 | What, hath he not endeavoured to make Ireland rebel against me? |
| A27415 | When a river threatens to break in, who runs not from all sides to mend the banks? |
| A27415 | When they shall have opprest Flanders, and have gotten so opportune a seat for their Arms, what Province will they next fall upon? |
| A27415 | When this pass shall be opened, Antwerp will be free; and that City being freed, how glorious will your labours be? |
| A27415 | Where are the Egmonts? |
| A27415 | Where are( said they) these so many promised Forces? |
| A27415 | Where hath the formidableness of their forces been better seen then here in Flanders? |
| A27415 | Where is the antient splendor of our Cambray? |
| A27415 | Where so many of the Nobility of all sorts? |
| A27415 | Where the Horns? |
| A27415 | Where was the former moderate Government of their preceding rather Fathers then Princes? |
| A27415 | Wherefore did he not with all speed endeavour to suppress totally the Heretical Faction, and establish the Catholick party for ever in that Kingdom? |
| A27415 | Wherefore shall we expect to be doubly assaulted within them at one and the same time? |
| A27415 | Wherefore since the advantages doe every day increase on our side by way of siege, why should we not with all fervor and constancy prosecute it? |
| A27415 | Wherefore then do not you resolve to make your self Master of all those places at once? |
| A27415 | Wherefore what certainty could there be of bringing them so soon into the field again? |
| A27415 | Which if it should so fall out, how much would the affairs of the King and Archdukes be thereby advantaged? |
| A27415 | Which of these two examples shall we follow? |
| A27415 | Which of you doth not know Captain Plumart, and his fidelity in the Kings service? |
| A27415 | Which of you is unacquainted with the coming of Don Alonzo del Canto, that new Spanish Inquisitor, into these parts? |
| A27415 | Who could have expected such errors as these? |
| A27415 | Who sees not how we are daily inforst to oppose our industry to the threats thereof? |
| A27415 | Why do not we fortifie that point which is made by the Rhine, where it divides into two branches? |
| A27415 | Why may not your Provinces hope for the like success? |
| A27415 | Why shall not we endeavour the relief, hazarding to wade through the drown''d part of the Island? |
| A27415 | Why should not we of Harlem rather doe as they of Amsterdam have done? |
| A27415 | Will this be the first time that our Forces shall have beaten theirs? |
| A27415 | Will you suffer your selves thus to be slain, when you are not able to fight? |
| A27415 | You the Duke of Brabant? |
| A27415 | You the Ruler of these Countries? |
| A27415 | Your Forces at Sea have formerly been most powerful: How much more formidable wil they be made now by the addition of Portugal? |
| A27415 | Your desert was certainly highly valued by the King, when you reconciled, your Provinces to his Royal Crown; but how much will it now be increased? |
| A27415 | a place so opulent, and of such extent, and placed in the midst of Spains chiefest enemies and maligners? |
| A27415 | aay, how often have whole Armies rather commended then condemned their cause? |
| A27415 | an acquisition of Countries, which your Royal bloud hath in former times in a good part governed and enjoy''d? |
| A27415 | and also with how much loss? |
| A27415 | and by the estates of her miserable people satisfie the vast immealurate desires of others? |
| A27415 | and chiefly us who are here, and enjoy the greatest Prerogatives? |
| A27415 | and did not he upon all other occasions shew his ill will to the English? |
| A27415 | and how advantagious to all our other confederates? |
| A27415 | and how could the ebbing and the flowing of the Sea be so justly measured, as that the Souldiers might not run danger of being lost? |
| A27415 | and how could they be remedied during the War, they being the effects which so long a War had inevitably produced? |
| A27415 | and how glorious shall I make it appear? |
| A27415 | and how great opportunity shall we then have to assault the Enemy with all advantage? |
| A27415 | and how hard would it be to be justified? |
| A27415 | and how many foreign evils might he add to those home- bred ones? |
| A27415 | and how many other great acquisitions had the Cardinal Archduke lately made? |
| A27415 | and how much greater are their numbers then ours? |
| A27415 | and how much should they suffer in their honours? |
| A27415 | and how much will the very ablest be displeased? |
| A27415 | and how ready was it by its ownproper forces to streng then the Kings Army? |
| A27415 | and how triumphant shall we be in the Church by suppressing Heresie? |
| A27415 | and in the mean time to get strength, and laying down Arms, except what with time would make most to the Spanish advantage? |
| A27415 | and in what a terror, from that side more especially, did you put England not many years ago? |
| A27415 | and in what danger were the chiefest Cities of the Flemish Union? |
| A27415 | and into what contempt would the Kings Authority fall? |
| A27415 | and made the Majesty of his Empire be still so reverenced and feared? |
| A27415 | and see himself so much respected in those that appertained to others? |
| A27415 | and shall not we then receive correction instead of inflicting it? |
| A27415 | and so strictly acknowledged, and solemnly sworn unto by the Provinces? |
| A27415 | and that the King your brother will endeavour by all means to procure so fair an acquisition to his Crown? |
| A27415 | and the Customs more then the tongue? |
| A27415 | and the Piety for so many years professed in those Provinces, to rescent Doctrins, which had involved almost all Europe in mighty troubles? |
| A27415 | and the authority of his name? |
| A27415 | and to detain the Army in so fair a course, would it not be totally to discourage the Souldiery? |
| A27415 | and to how many fat all seenes may Germany and France serve for a Theatre by reason hereof? |
| A27415 | and what doth he not in all other parts in hatred to my Kingdoms and to my person? |
| A27415 | and what good would the yet more slower hopes doe of being assisted by Foreigners? |
| A27415 | and what other commodities would they there receive whereby to maintain themselves? |
| A27415 | and when so considerable a number being behind, the Catholicks would come short of them in numbers? |
| A27415 | and where the helps which should also come from England? |
| A27415 | and which keep their perfidious necks under so just a yoke? |
| A27415 | and who knows not what cruell and fearfull Orders he brings with him? |
| A27415 | any favourable dealing? |
| A27415 | as to fall into their hands, what doe you think their first actions will be? |
| A27415 | being made a But, or rather a laughing- stock to these Rebels, who secure within their Rampiers, mock you whilst they wound you? |
| A27415 | between Subjection''which is there adored, and by all men here so much detested? |
| A27415 | but chiefly why do you not make this City of Antwerp your own? |
| A27415 | did not the Kings intention touching the affairs of Flanders appear plainly in this? |
| A27415 | do not we know what apprehensions the being of the Spanish forces in Flanders will cause in Germany, in England, and in France? |
| A27415 | doth not his whole Letter denounce fire and sword against the Flemish? |
| A27415 | from the Nobility, who are already totally exhausted? |
| A27415 | had he not a designe to do the like in England? |
| A27415 | hath not the like been seen, and is it not now seen in these present negotiations? |
| A27415 | hath so much time, bloud, and treasure been spent against the tra ● terous rebels to bring things to this end? |
| A27415 | how much better will it become you to accompany your right with force of Arms? |
| A27415 | how much were the people alienated from their former devotion to the Church, and to the King? |
| A27415 | how oft had they mentioned the remedy? |
| A27415 | how would the King be thereat scandalized? |
| A27415 | how would they rejoyce to see that Don John should be the first that should use violence? |
| A27415 | is it not better to order our Army anew? |
| A27415 | nay, does not all signs make for the contrary? |
| A27415 | nay, how oft their first Files? |
| A27415 | nay, not of one onely Tyrant, but of two? |
| A27415 | nourishing still her own desire of usurping the government thereof? |
| A27415 | or by any sufficient Siege forced any place of importance? |
| A27415 | or doth it no longer fear the severity of his orders, and the rigour of his discipline? |
| A27415 | or from those meaner sort of people, who have so unworthily violated the Churches, and rob''d the Altars? |
| A27415 | or rather why should not we by their usual customes assure our selves of their persidiousness? |
| A27415 | or that this might not be done by the enemies ships by annoying it hourly on all sides? |
| A27415 | rather how shamefully have we been compelled to rise from before Cambray? |
| A27415 | shall it be imputed as a fault of misbeliefe, if some vain or idle word escape our mouths, amidst those our innocent delights? |
| A27415 | shall we suffer them to bereave us of two such important strengths? |
| A27415 | since the Souldiers were to fight under the command, and in the eye- sight of their own Prince, who would likewise be their Captain- Generall? |
| A27415 | so as he may know he hath the Flemish to Govern, and not the French? |
| A27415 | that unconquerable defender of the Liberties thereof? |
| A27415 | the ancient Church to the new Sects? |
| A27415 | the plotter of all the past revolts; the occasioner of all these present troubles? |
| A27415 | then to command it wholly every where, with the addition of Portugal? |
| A27415 | then to enjoy so peaceably his Territories in Italy? |
| A27415 | then to have his most remotest Countrys of the Indies wounded by that wound? |
| A27415 | then to have so highly maintained the reputation of his name? |
| A27415 | then to have the memmorable victory of Lepanto in favour of the Christians in so great a part attributed unto him? |
| A27415 | then to lose so much of that his most antient patrimony? |
| A27415 | to rout, and to disperse them? |
| A27415 | to wit, by drawing Alanson himself out of her, and with him so many others who at the present do molest that Kingdom? |
| A27415 | was not that of Calis sufficient by open siege, but that the other of Amiens must issue by surprise? |
| A27415 | were not many of the Spaniards forces of Flanders joyned with the Rebels of France in the late battel of Yury? |
| A27415 | what breast, or what breath would be able to go through with it? |
| A27415 | what dangers will our Provinces be then again in? |
| A27415 | what dares it not? |
| A27415 | what did he not trie to bring the Inquisition into that Kingdom, in the Emperour your fathers time? |
| A27415 | what doth he not now endeavour amongst the hereticks of Germany after so joyfull news? |
| A27415 | what fear, what horrour will they thereat conceive? |
| A27415 | what from the King? |
| A27415 | what more execrable thing could they devise to do, then so affrontedly, and by their own sole authority to chuse unto themselves a new Prince? |
| A27415 | what rewards are not we to expect from the Kings bounty and goodness? |
| A27415 | where are our men? |
| A27415 | where are their paid men? |
| A27415 | where can we hope to have any? |
| A27415 | where is our money? |
| A27415 | where so many other conditions so ill made good by them? |
| A27415 | where the Armies which would suddenly fall from France down into Flanders? |
| A27415 | where the Emperours rescent goodness? |
| A27415 | whether doth not his opinion reach? |
| A27415 | which after so long a succession of his ancestors was past into him? |
| A27415 | which if we doe, who shall secure us of their truth? |
| A27415 | which of us have not seen our late victories abroad against those very Chieftains who now foment these present rebellions here within us? |
| A27415 | which of you knows not that he is better practised in these parts, then in his own house? |
| A27415 | who indued with more excellent vertues? |
| A27415 | who is not aware of the Spaniards vast designes? |
| A27415 | who lead so free, and so conversable a life? |
| A27415 | who will not abhor so oft a repeated grievance? |
| A27415 | who will secure their entrance? |
| A27415 | will it not be in their power afterwards to punish us? |
| A27415 | will you forget your self, your Royal bloud, and your glorious Nation? |
| A27415 | with or without forces? |
| A27415 | would it not be to bereave them of certain hopes, and to feed them with more uncertain? |
| A27415 | would not the very Government be by this means rather continued, then any other of a different Form instituted? |
