The Epistle to the Reader.

[Page]

[Page]

IT hath beene alwayes (Christian Reader) a continuall practise of the wicked and vngodly, not onely neglecting the almightie to trust in their owne might: but relying on themselues and theyr own power to glory and boast thereof vnto the world. So we reade in the first age of the world, Lamec trusting to the inuentions of his sons Iabal, Iubal, and Tubalkaijn, boasteth himselfe vnto his wiues that hee would not take the least iniurie, no not of the meanest person, but he woulde slay a strong man in his wound and a yong man in his hurt. [Page] Nimrod in the second age waxing mightie on the earth, and without all reuerence of the Lord, or (as the scripture speaketh) in the presence of the Lorde, hunting men like wilde beastes, neuer lefte vntill by his cursed seede hee had erected hym a tower whose top might reache vnto heauen, thereby to get him a name, and to shewe vnto the world what hee was able to doe. To conclude the like vaineglory, wee reade of Nabuchadnezar, Nichanor, and diuers other.

But as this hath bene a continuall custome of the wicked, so they haue not herein respected or had regard vnto any thing more, then first the encouragement of their owne, I meane the vngodly, then the discouragement of the faithfull and godly: for heereby they would seeme to perswade them, that for as much as they are fewe and weake, as the [Page] godly alwaies are in respect of the wicked, and therefore not able to match or counteruaile thē in power, they are not to stand with them, but as others haue done to yeeld to thē: to this end tendeth the proud boast, and vaunt of blasphemous Rabschake Embassadour to that wicked Senacharib. Make warre saith he to Eliakim with my maister the king of Assiria, and I will deliuer thee two thousand horses, if thou be able to set riders on them. And afterwarde haue any of the gods of the nations by any meanes deliuered their land from the king of Assiria: where are the Gods of Chanath and Arphad? where are they of Sepharuaijm and Hhiuua? nay haue they deliuered Samaria, that the Lord should deliuer Ieruschalaijm out of my hand. Thus to the discouragement of the people of the Lord Rabschake vaunteth and boasteth himselfe.

[Page]Inferiour to none of these are at this day our Italian Lamec and Spanish Nimrod, the pope I meane and the Spanishe king: the one whereof trusting to the inuentions and practises of his priestly progenie, to small and great threatneth death without cause, being so much worse then cursed Lamec, the other hauing with Nimrod, like beastes hunted men with dogges in India, woulde fayne vse the like practise heere in England, and hath by hys ships, made like Babel towers, vaunted himselfe to make vs afrayd: and because the sight of these, he knewe, could not come vnto all, hath heere as thou mayst beholde, like Sancharib by Rabschake by this booke, as by his embassadour, published vnto thee his whole power.

Neither yet commeth this embassage either to Chirkija, or Eliakim, to our gratious prince or her honourable [Page] counsayle, that they in his owne tongue might answere him againe, but he hath published it to all beside our selues, in Italian, Spanishe, Dutch, and French, and yet to them thereby to discourage vs: for these he telleth, he hath thus many huge shippes, so many thousandes of armed men, such multitude of munition as no man could deliuer vs out of his hand, or as if hee cried out with Rabschake: Let not England deceiue you, for it cannot deliuer you out of my hand, nor let not Elizabeth perswade you to trust in the Lord, saying, doubtlesse the Lorde will deliuer vs, and not giue ouer our countrey into the handes of the king of Spaine. But make apointment with me, and come foorth vnto me, and so yee shall eate euery man of the fruit of his owne Vine, and of his owne Figge-tree, and drinke euery man the water of his owne [Page] Cesterne. Haue not I practised (by receiuing and cherishing diuers of their owne nations) to make them fit instrumentes by treason to serue my purpose, and what shoulde ayle me that I haue not already conquered their countrey. Thus beloued, the Spanish Nimrod practiseth not onely to feare vs, but to allure all men from taking part with vs.

But such trust beloued haue wee in the Lord, and so little account in respect of the Lord we make of the power of man, that we suffer them to say euen as much in English too, nay wee teach them to speake it in our owne tongue, not that our purpose is as theirs was to daunt or discourage the fearefull multitude, but to propound vnto the world their folly in boasting thus vaynely, and then to encourage our selues to go forward in that hope and confidence we haue had in the Lord.

[Page]For touching their folly, how ridiculous hath it bene, that when as in respect of the time it hath bin a practise of long continuance, and of so mighty and many Monarchies, as the Pope, the king and the prince: and last, of such prouision, that for ships they haue built them like Castels: for men, made choyse of expert and mightie: for munition, they haue much and marueilous: they shoulde come so long prouided against a land as it were vnawares, so manie and mightie Monarchies against so smal and litle an Iland: such huge ships against so small pinases, as it were, and of these to take (as the Lord bee praised they haue) so strange repulse, is in respect of the trust and confidence they put in them, and of the triumphes and boastes before the victorie they made in diuers places of them, no doubt in the feare of the Lord to be not onely derided and [Page] laughed at, but acknowledged a most strange and wonderfull worke of the Lorde, as who knewe their dwelling, and their going out, and coming in, and their furie against him. And therefore because they had raged against him, and their tumulte was come into his eares, did put a booke into their nostrisles and a bridle into their lippes, and brought thē backe the same way they came, not suffering them to enter into the land nor to come against it with a shielde, nor to cast a banke about it, but hath deliuered it for his owne sake, and for his seruants sake.

And concerning the confidence and encouragement, wee are on the view of this catalogue, to conceaue, how can it be but most speciall and singular, seeing the deliuerance hath bin most singular? For when we shal see from what strange crueltie, and forraine power we haue bene deliuered, [Page] shall we not alwaies after say, Praysed be the Lord which hath not giuen vs as a pray vnto their teeth but our soule is escaped euen as a bird out of the snare of the fowler the snare is broken and we are deliuered, our helpe therefore is in the name of the Lord which hath made both heauen and earth. For hence we learne that a horse (and so a ship with men and all meanes els) is but a vayne thing to saue a man, neither that anie man is deliuered by much strength, but that whereas they put their trust some in horses, some in Chariots, we must remember the name of the lord, & with Iehoschaphat crie: We had no strength to resist so great a multitude coming against vs, neither knew we what to do, but our eies were fixed on thee O Lord.

Thus therefore thou seest what was our drift and purpose in publishing this in our natiue toung which [Page] hath bin heretofore in diuers languages, not as the aduersarie would to discourage thee, but to make shew vnto thee how vayne it is to trust in outward meanes, and then to learne thee to trust in the Lord, who is able to saue thee, and as hee hath alreadie begun, will do still, if thou go forward to trust in him. For the lord hath caused the forces of the Spaniards, this their great Armado, to be daunted, and greatly endangered by his great wisedome, putting into the minds of our Captaines and soldiours, to prouide sixe or seauen of the worst of the ships they had at sea, with such necessaries as should serue best to set them on fire withall, which they sent amongst the Spaniards, thereby to remoue and scatter them, yea euen when they thought themselues most sure, and likelyest to receiue more succor, & as they lay fast at Ankor neere Calis. Wherefore [Page] they arose and sought euery man to helpe himselfe, hewing and slipping their cables, & leauing their ankors behinde them. Yea and some he hath caused to run aground vpō one shore, and some vpon an other, and some suncke, and other some taken with diuerse of their men, some of them of great name, with their ensignes, banners, stremers, and gitterns, wherof diuerse were hanged about the battelments and crosse of Paules, on the 8. of September 1588. & on the 9. at London bridge, thereby to comfort his English Elizabeth, and all her faithfull subiects. For the which his many and sundry benefits, wee beseech him graunt all that faithfully beleeue in him, grace to continue thankfull in glorifying him and his holy name for euer, to the good example of all other.

Typographus lectori beneuolo, & veritatis studioso. S. D.

A Mice Lector, cum incidissem in disticha quaedam à Coloniensibus edita, per quae, ex suo voto, quasi iam deuicta ab Hispanis Anglia, triumphabant, volui vnum ex his, vnà cum alijs, veritatis amantium virorum carminibus, typis excudere, vt, quibus in lucem editis, & tibi, & omnibus sinceris viris de summa in confingendis, & spargendis varijs rumoribus, Coloniensium, & pontificiorum omnium impudentia, deque Hispanorum profligatorum, & fugitiuorum incredibili, & inexpiabili in inuadenda aliena possessione, & cupiditate, & temeritate, certò constaret. Tu his interim fruere, & Deo, qui pro seruanda, a tanta tyrannide Anglia, pugnauit; mecum gratias age, & vale.

Colonienses ad Angliam, & eius asseclas Europae.

Tu, quae Romanas voluisti spernere leges,

Hispano disces subdere colla iugo.

Anglus ad Hispanum Romanae Meretricis amasium.

Colla iugo, quid ni? nihil est, Hispane, quod optas.

Sic vtinam possim subdere saepe tuo.

ALIVD

Hispane, Anglorum voluisti spernere vires?

Anglorum disces subdere colla iugo.

ALIVD

Scis cur Romanas spernit gens Anglica leges?

Haud seruile ferunt libera colla iugum.

[Page]

ALIVD

Romanas meritò didici contemnere leges,

Sic iub [...]t aeterna lex veneranda Dei.

ALIVD

Hoccine Romanas leges, Hispane, tueri?

Hoc est nostra tuo subdere colla iugo?

Vix prius armatas Anglorum cernere classes,

Absque mora turpi quàm dare terga fugae.

ALIVD

Si numeres, Hispane, Duces, si vulnera, naues,

Anglorum metues ne patiare iugum.

ALIVD

Ampla quidem, truculentè refers, Hispane, trophaea,

Scilicet ad proprias sequitur te dedecus eras.

ALIVD

Colla dabit, qui terga dedit, quid, amice, superbis?

Turpius Hispano quis mihi terga dedit

Ergo age, si volupe est, Romanas discere leges,

Exemplo Hispani discere perge tui.

Aliud ad Poetam Coloniensem.

Subdere eùm videas Hispanum colla Britanno,

Vnum age, nec vates postea falsus eris.

Scilicet ipse tuum properans laqueo insere collum

Te dignum facies, & breue fiet opus.

Aliud ad Bernardinum Mendosum.

Nil Mendose, facis, tua toxica, tela, triumphi,

Sunt mihi ludibrio, nil, furiose, facis.

Hoc, Mendose, facis, si quid facis, improbe, technis;

Cladis es Hispano maxima causa tuo.

Ergo opus Hispano feceris, gratumque Britanno.

Si laqueo vitam, perfide, finieris.

FINIS.

Creation

Created by converting TCP files to TEI P5 using tcp2tei.xsl, TEI @ Oxford.

Editorial practices

EEBO-TCP is a partnership between the Universities of Michigan and Oxford and the publisher ProQuest to create accurately transcribed and encoded texts based on the image sets published by ProQuest via their Early English Books Online (EEBO) database (http://eebo.chadwyck.com). The general aim of EEBO-TCP is to encode one copy (usually the first edition) of every monographic English-language title published between 1473 and 1700 available in EEBO.

EEBO-TCP aimed to produce large quantities of textual data within the usual project restraints of time and funding, and therefore chose to create diplomatic transcriptions (as opposed to critical editions) with light-touch, mainly structural encoding based on the Text Encoding Initiative (http://www.tei-c.org).

The EEBO-TCP project was divided into two phases. The 25,363 texts created during Phase 1 of the project have been released into the public domain as of 1 January 2015. Anyone can now take and use these texts for their own purposes, but we respectfully request that due credit and attribution is given to their original source.

Users should be aware of the process of creating the TCP texts, and therefore of any assumptions that can be made about the data.

Text selection was based on the New Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature (NCBEL). If an author (or for an anonymous work, the title) appears in NCBEL, then their works are eligible for inclusion. Selection was intended to range over a wide variety of subject areas, to reflect the true nature of the print record of the period. In general, first editions of a works in English were prioritized, although there are a number of works in other languages, notably Latin and Welsh, included and sometimes a second or later edition of a work was chosen if there was a compelling reason to do so.

Image sets were sent to external keying companies for transcription and basic encoding. Quality assurance was then carried out by editorial teams in Oxford and Michigan. 5% (or 5 pages, whichever is the greater) of each text was proofread for accuracy and those which did not meet QA standards were returned to the keyers to be redone. After proofreading, the encoding was enhanced and/or corrected and characters marked as illegible were corrected where possible up to a limit of 100 instances per text. Any remaining illegibles were encoded as <gap>s. Understanding these processes should make clear that, while the overall quality of TCP data is very good, some errors will remain and some readable characters will be marked as illegible. Users should bear in mind that in all likelihood such instances will never have been looked at by a TCP editor.

The texts were encoded and linked to page images in accordance with level 4 of the TEI in Libraries guidelines.

Copies of the texts have been issued variously as SGML (TCP schema; ASCII text with mnemonic sdata character entities); displayable XML (TCP schema; characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or text strings within braces); or lossless XML (TEI P5, characters represented either as UTF-8 Unicode or TEI g elements).
