The letter of the French King, to the Parliament of Roan, concerning the death of the Marshall D'Ancre Together with an act of the saide Parliament thereupon.

A further Aduertisement.

KNow also good Reader, that it is credibly reported, that the dead corps of the Marshall D' Ancre hath vndergone the greatest Indignities and Shame, that can bee inflicted, or proceed from the fury of a vulgar multitude, prouo∣ked to hatred by his Tyranny: viz. that being buried obscurely, befitting his basenesse, hee was taken vp againe, and dragged through the streets of Paris with his face on the ground, vnto the gallowes: where being disfigured and dismembred in most shamefull manner, he was as shamefully hanged, and his priuie members nayl'd thereunto. But that satisfied not their rage, vntill they had taken downe his misera∣ble body, and diuided it into many parts (bur∣ning some) and dispersing them into diuerse places; that so his shame, and their indignation towards him, might bee published into those parts that had felt his tyrannous insolencie in the time of his former greatnesse and potencie.

And withall, that his Wife beeing impriso∣ned, hath had her haire shorne off her head, for some probation and triall of her witchcraft: but the effects of that are not yet certified.

FINIS.
