I dare your worst Obiections: If I blush,
It is to see a Nobleman want manners Sur. I had rather want those, then my head; Haue at you. First, that without the Kings assent or knowledge, You wrought to be a Legate, by which power You maim'd the Iurisdiction of all Bishops Nor. Then, That in all you writ to Rome, or else To Forraigne Princes, Ego & Rex meus Was still inscrib'd: in which you brought the King To be your Seruant Suf. Then, that without the knowledge Either of King or Councell, when you went Ambassador to the Emperor, you made bold To carry into Flanders, the Great Seale Sur. Item, You sent a large Commission To Gregory de Cassado, to conclude Without the Kings will, or the States allowance, A League betweene his Highnesse, and Ferrara Suf. That out of meere Ambition, you haue caus'd Your holy-Hat to be stampt on the Kings Coine Sur. Then, That you haue sent inumerable substance, (By what meanes got, I leaue to your owne conscience) |
