The Discovery of Guiana by Sir Walter Raleigh
page 97 of 97 (100%)
hands have displanted the first garrison, and driven them out of the
said country, so her Majesty will give order for the rest, and either
defend it, and hold it as tributary, or conquer and keep it as empress
of the same. For whatsoever prince shall possess it, shall be greatest;
and if the king of Spain enjoy it, he will become unresistible. Her
Majesty hereby shall confirm and strengthen the opinions of all nations
as touching her great and princely actions. And where the south border

women shall hereby hear the name of a virgin, which is not only able to
defend her own territories and her neighbours, but also to invade and
conquer so great empires and so far removed.

To speak more at this time I fear would be but troublesome: I trust in
God, this being true, will suffice, and that he which is King of all
Kings, and Lord of Lords, will put it into her heart which is Lady of
Ladies to possess it. If not, I will judge those men worthy to be kings
thereof, that by her grace and leave will undertake it of themselves.
