§. V. [ 30]

MVLEY HAMET BOSONNE commeth against ABDELA, and causeth him flie, to his Father. BOFERES like to be taken, flieth to Salie. MVLEY SIDAN com∣meth against MVLEY HVMET BOSONNE; who flyeth, and is poysoned by old AZVS. MVLEY SHECK sendeth into Spaine. Some obseruations of their Policie, and Trade to Gago.

BVt whilest Abdela and Sidan were contriuing their owne ends, there arose a storme [ 40] in the Mountaines which fell in the Plaines of Moruecos. The tempest driuer was one Muley Hamet Bosonne, Cousin to the three Brethren which haue striuen for the * 1.1 Kingdome. This man gathering treasure, and temporising with them all three, so played their Game, that finding their weakenesse which these quarrels had brought them vnto, vpon a sudden seeing his time, went into the Mountaines to his Mothers Kindred, mustered ve∣rie neere twenty thousand able men. The Muley being well prouided of treasure, gaue them due pay and large, winning them to his respect and seruice, so that in lesse then two moneths space, he got all things in readinesse, descended from the Tesseuon Mountaines towards Moruecos.

This newes brought to Abdela was very vnwelcome, yet (calling his wits and Counsell toge∣ther) it was concluded, considering the Shracees were gone, his remnant of Souldiers feeble and [ 50] out of heart, and the Moruecans daily fled to Hamet Bosonne, whose vprising like a blazing Star drew their eyes vpon him, that Abdela should trauell to Fez, which hee might well doe without a guide, hauing heretofore vpon like necessities, often measured the miles: and though hee was determined so to do, yet a smal occasion hastned his iourney, for some mile from Abdelas Campe, * 1.2 vpon a Hill on the back-side of Moruecos, a man being seene with a Speare in his hand, and a white linnen vpon it as a Flagge. Abdela thought Hamet Bosonne to be with his whole Forces behind the Hill, when he was a full dayes march from Moruecos. Therfore in all haste he tooke vp some of his Tents, but the greater part left standing in a manner, being feared, ran away. And * 1.3 afterward when this matter was discouered, which Abdela held a token of his surprise, it was [ 60] nothing els but a poore Moore washing his Napery, and for the speedier drying vsed this meanes, which terrified Abdela from the seate of his Empire, to Fez, the safest place for his abode.

Lylla Isha, Sidans Mother, hearing of Hamet Bosonnes approch, was perswaded, his mouements were onely to defend her Sonnes right, knowing Bosonne of late fauoured Sidans title, comming

into his pay, and in person seruing the Muley at the last battaile when Sidan fled into Sus. Heereupon she sent diuers Captaines, part of her owne Guard, others of her friends and kindred to his ayd, thinking he would haue taken Moruecos for Sidan. But Bosonne hauing entred the * 1.4 Citie peaceably, proclaimed himselfe King, dismissed all Sidans fauourers, which were not wil∣to be his seruants, who returned to their Lady Mistresse, certifying her error and their successe: his Treasure he imparted largely to his followers, by strong hand desired no mans seruice, but those who were willing. Some thirty English-men remayning, weary of their sustained mesery, and the state of the Countrey, he gaue them licence to imbarke, and writ to the Gouernour of Saphia to giue them their passe, notice whereof being giuen to the Factor Marine for the English, he disparted them into diuers ships with all conueniency, though to his cost and charges; chari∣ty [ 10] to helpe the distressed soules, and loue to his natiue Countrey, moouing him thereunto. This Muley Hamet Bosonne, during the time of his gouernment was a very good and iust man, offe∣red no discourtesie, or tooke away any mans goods, but paid the Merchants truely for the same, who liked well his current and true dealing.

Bosonnes mother hearing her sonne was setled in Moruecos, brought what strength she could from the Mountaines, and in her way knowing Boferes lodged in a fortresse, whereunto hee was fled, not to bee well guarded, she beset the house, meaning to take the Muley priso∣ner, who being void of meanes to resist in the night, made a hole through the wall and so es∣caped priuately to Salie, a Port Towne within the iurisdiction of his brother Sheck, where at this day he remaineth.

On the morrow betimes, Bosonnes mother with her men entered the Fort, missing Boferes, * 1.5 [ 20] cut off the head of Umsed Benbela, one of his chiefest seruants and Commanders: then went she forward to congratulate her sonnes comming to the Kingdome, being then in Moruecos. But an Empire ill got, is seldome seene of long continuance, for within lesse then two moneths, Muley Sidan came out of Sus with a great armie, for whose ayd Lylla Isha sold her Iewels, and Plate, to furnish her son with Swords, Pikes, Horsemen, Staues, and other Warl-like Munition.

On the other side Hamet Bosonne prepared to welcome his cousin the Muley Sidan; so about the beginning of Aprill, 1608. both their Forces met hard by Moruecos where a chiefe of a kin∣red one Grufe, which came out of Sus, a great wine drinker, alwayes a fauourer of Muley Sidan * 1.6 (though little valuing any of the three Kings) presuming vpon his owne strength and valour, desired the honour, that hee might giue charge vpon the enemy with fiue hundred Horse, which was his owne Regiment, and of his owne kindred: Sidan refused to grant him his [ 30] request, therefore the Casima tooke his owne leaue and gaue the enemy a full charge vpon the * 1.7 body of his armie, which receiuing him very brauely, the Casima and his company were in great danger to be ouerthrowne: but Sidan to releeue him, sent fiue hundred Horse-men of his own: so with these thousand, the Casima broke the ranks of Bofonnes battalions, then with their fables fell to execution, vntill the whole campe seeing the field lost, fled towards the Mountaines: thus Sidan without further resistance entering Moruecos, resting there in quiet three moneths, vntill * 1.8 Hamet Boson recouering new Forces in Iuly following, presented himselfe before the Citie, tru∣sting aswel vpon his own strength, as the loue of the Citizens: hoping his good and gentle vsage when he was amongst them, would haue bred a liking in them, of his mild and gentle gouern∣ment: [ 40] but either the seruile mind of the multitude little respected his fore-passed kindnes, or the feare of Sidan made them loath to shew any signe of good will; for at his approath no man in the Citie was knowne to draw a sword in his defence. So on the eight of Iuly, Bosonne was discomfited with the losse of some thousand men, fled to the Mountaines, where within foure dayes after Alkeid Azus got him poysoned, hoping thereby to win the fauour of Muley * 1.9 Sidan,

This Azus is aged and subtill, by his long experience best knoweth the secrets of that state, * 1.10 was brought vp vnder Abdela, Muley Hamet Xarifs brother, and for his Counsell to Abdela, willing him either to put out the eyes of Hamet Xarif, or cut his throat, was in danger to haue lost his life when Hamet Xarif came to be King, but the wisedome of the man won such respect [ 50] with Hamet, that of a prisoner, he made him his chiefest Counsellor, and Master of his Treasurie, during whose life time his behauiour was such, as he won great loue among the Commons, No∣bility, and many of the blood Royall. When old Hamet died, he was in his Campe neere Fez, and after his death rested all his loue vpon Muley Sidan (holding him the prime man and fittest of the three brethren, to rule the Kingdome) vntill both he and Sidy Imbark could not counsell and rule Muley Sidan, for his owne good and benefit of the Common-weale being head-strong, and would take no mans counsell but to his owne liking and hurt. Therefore Sedy Abdela Im∣bark went to his contemplation at Aca: And Azus to a Castle in the Mountaines, which he had stored with Treasure against a storme, or to refresh the winter of his age, from whence he will [ 60] not come downe, vntill he see some hope of peace, hauing at this instant more Treasure in his Coffers, then all the three brethren besides, and hopeth to keepe it, being in the midst of his friends and kindred, and in a place as well fortified as any in Barbary.

Muley Sheck fearefull lest Sidans next enterprise would be to rowze him out of Fez, fell in conference with an Italian Merchant, named Iohn Etina, making him his Agent to go into Spain, * 1.11 there to conclude, that if the Catholique King would ayde him with men and money to reco∣uer his right, there should be deliuered vp into his hands, Allaroche, Saly, Alcasar, and other Townes lying fit for his mouth: This negotiation was well entertained. And Iohn Etina was promised for his labour in this businesse, and bringing it to effect, vpon the deliuerie of the Port Townes, to haue yeerely paid him two thousand Duckats during his life. In Iune, this matter was first mooued; in the latter end of August, seuen Gallions (as was reported) and the Gallies of Naples, in all a hundred sayle, well manned with store of Pioners to rayse Forts, went to Allaroche, thinking to be receiued, but thirty thousand Alarbees came downe to the shoare, not [ 10] alowing any such neighbour-hood, though they hold the Andelusian halfe their blood.

Whether Sir Anthony Sherley was imployed in this seruice it is not certainly knowen: some are of opinion that hee was induced thereunto, because they haue formerly heard the King of * 1.12 Spaine hath royally rewarded him for his trauailes with Boferes, by giuing him the places and pay of two Captaines in the Indies, made him Admirall of the Leuant Seas, and next in place to the Vice-roy of Naples, hauing for his entertainement fiue hundred Duckats a moneth. Without question, he knoweth well the state of that vneiuill and barbarous Nation, hauing an apprehending and admirable wit to conceiue the disposition of any people with whom hee shall * 1.13 conuerse, whilest he was amongst them, he behaued himselfe very well toward the better sort, winning credite with them, and gaining the loue of the poorer sort exceedingly, by his larges [ 20] (for if a Moore or slaue gaue him but a dish of Dates, he should receiue a reward as from an Em∣perour) and how soeuer some may hold this a vice, counting him a lauisher: yet by this meanes he came to the knowledge of that which otherwise he neuer should haue attained vnto, The more credible fame is, Sir Anthonie was not with this Fleet, therefore they sped neuer the bet∣ter, for had he beene in company, and had command, he would either haue taken footing, or ventered all, scorning to returne with doing nothing, and so be laughed at.

The Policie of Barbarie.

EVery Kingdome consisteth of men, not of buildings, therefore the Kingdome of Barbary con∣sisteth [ 30] of bond and free men: the naturall bond men are such as are descended either from Christians or Negros; the free men are Larbies or Brebers, which may be termed the Valley and Mountaine men. Ouer all, as absolute Monarch is the King, who maintaineth his seat by the sword, and power of Iustice: the sword men according to their degrees are thus placed.

First, the Muleis, are the Kings children, and all other who are of the blood Royall, are ter∣med by this name. Secondly, Bashas, are Captaine Generals ouer armies. Thirdly, Alkeids be the Lords, set aswell ouer Garrison Townes as Countreys, to rule and keepe the people in subiection. Fourthly, Ferres, Gentlemen who carrie armes, yet lesse Commanders then Al∣keids. Fiftly, Bahaia, Lieutenant to an Alkeid. Sixtly, Brakbashi, a Sergeant at armes. Se∣uenthly, Debushi, a Captaine ouer thirty. Eightly, Romie, the common Souldier of these men [ 40] of warre, there were kept in daily pay in the old Kings time, to the number of fifty thousand Horsemen: part seruing with the Launce, others with the Speare called Spahaias, and some, especially the Horsemen of Fez, serue with the Crosse-bow on Horse-backe, bending it as they ride, shooting a strong shot and sure: and sixteene thousand foot-men, the Alarbies being fitter for the Horsemen, but the Brebers the stronger footmen, most of them shot.

The chiefest men of Command in the latter times, were these.

FIrst, Alkeid Azus, chiefe Counsellor of State. Secondly, Hamet ben Breham Sefiani, Master of the Horse, and ruler ouer the Alkeids. Thirdly, Sedi Hamet ben Bouker. Fourthly, Sedi [ 50] Abdela Wahad Anoune: These two were Treasurers. Fiftly, Alkeid Hamet, a Capatho or Eu∣nuchs, Gouernour ouer the women and Eunuches. Sixtly, Alkeid Mustepha File Master of the Ordnance. Seuenthly, Rishauan, Admirall ouer the Gallies at Saly.

Note, though these be enobled, taking priority or precedency before others, yet is not this noblenesse hereditary, for the children of these men must claime no honour by birth-right, but what they get by their seruice and honour of their sword, liue vnrespected vnlesse they be vali∣ant, and so proouing, the King will take them into his seruice, whereupon by desert, the sonne may obtaine his fathers fortune and honour.

There is another title of dignity termed Sheck, attributed to the chiefe man of euery Family or Cast, neither doth the Kings eldest sonne scorne the title, signifying that he is the prime or * 1.14 best blood of his Royall kindred. These Shecks are much respected, because it is the nature of [ 60] the people, the whole kindred to follow their head: insomuch, as one of these Shecks can bring into the field ten thousand Horsemen of their owne Cast, or kindred, and some more. So that

it is a matter of great consequence, the King to haue an eye ouer such a man, and know how his affection resteth towards him, either in loue or hatred.

The King once in a moneth, on Fridayes in the afternoone after prayers, either in his house * 1.15 or Church sitteth to doe Iustice, hearing complaints or appeales from subalterne Ministers, from whom the grieued persons doe appeale to his Royall person: when the King sitteth, the stranger shall haue freer accesse to plead his cause before the King, then his owne borne subiect.

All inferious Iudges and Ministers are their Church-men or Talbies, and those are soonest chosen into offices which are of strick test life, being free from auarice, and such other sinnes as may peruert and hinder the course of equitie and iustice. The chiefest man for iudgement vnder [ 10] the King is Muftie, to whom the party grieued may appeale from any other ordinary Iudge. * 1.16 There be three of these men, one in Moruecos, another in Fez, the third at Taradant in Sus. The Muftie of Moruecos, sitteth with the King in Iudgement, and euery Friday in the after∣noone by himselfe, to heare and determine causes of the subiect and stranger, though hee bee in eminent place, he is a poore man, in respect what he might be, if he would sell Iustice, and take bribes.

The ordinary Iudge sitteth all the yeere long two houres before noone, and two houres after * 1.17 noone: in euery great Towne throughout the three Kingdomes in places one of these Iudges, to whom not onely the Inhabitants of euery Towne and Citie doe repaire, but the Countrey peo∣ple or Larbees vpon differences come thither to haue their causes decided: euery one must tell his owne tale, and plead his owne matter. When both parties haue spoken, then giueth the * 1.18 [ 20] Iudge sentence; so that in one day the cause is brought into Court, and the same day ended. If either part haue witnesse to produce, then the Iudge giueth three dayes respite to bring them in, which being brought, the aduerse party shall haue other three dayes respite to disproue them. And if he can prooue the witnesses either infamous in manners, or giuen to detestable sinne, as drunkennesse, adultery, or such like: And can prooue the witnes saith not his prayers sixe times * 1.19 duely in foure and twenty houres, then shal he be vtterly disabled to beare witnesse, and thus in seuen dayes the longest sute shall be ended. If an Obligation or rather Bill of debt be brought into Court, the Obligee must either pay the debt, goe to prison, or to pawne the value of the * 1.20 debt, or better: which pawne may be kept in Deposito nine dayes vpon great reason, to see if the debtor can redeeme it at the nine dayes end, if he doth it not, then is it sold, and the party [ 30] who should pay the money, must sustaine the losse.

As Coadiutors to these Iudges, and next in place to them be the Scriuanos, who vpon death * 1.21 or other remooue, are commonly made Iudges. These are Talbies which make writings betweene partie and partie, short and plaine, without multiplication of words, and they are of opinion, Abundans cautelanocet: in their Obligatory Bils they put neither Forfeit nor Condition, ha∣uing for the making thereof two pence English, and no more. They vse no long draughts in mat∣ters of purchase, or these tripartite Indentures, with such large and long implicite and expli∣cite Couenants, but thus the people deale in matters of Contracts and Bargaines. I buy of you * 1.22 a Uineyard, House, Merchandize, at such a price, to be paid at such a time, calling two honest men, whereof one shall be a Talbie, if I can get him, to witnesse this our Bargaine. We foure goe to [ 40] the Scriuener, who likewise is a Talbie, and haue this set downe in writing, and if our bargaine be for twenty thousand pounds, it is set downe in ten lines, and the Iustice of the Countrey will allow me my bargaine with as great reason, as if I had a great ingrossed Booke of Conuey∣ance, as big as the Map of the whole world in the newest Edition.

Next in this nature to these, be the Steryes, which haue smal Fees to see the execution of Law * 1.23 an sentence of the Iudge fulfilled; these likewise fetch men to answere their Aduersary, which would delay, and not come before the Iudge, eyther vpon peruersenesse, or badnesse of their plea, or any other cause whatsoeuer. Wherefore to bee alwayes ready, these are continually atten∣dant in the House of the Iudge, and wayting vpon him whethersoeuer he goeth. [ 50]

Muttifeb, is an Officer to see true Weights and Measures; if any bee faultie, all the Wares * 1.24 in such a mans shop hee giueth to the poore, the party proclaymed an vniust man, and sore whipped.

The Hackam, is the Lord Marshall in euery City, who iudgeth vpon life and death, assoone as * 1.25 the party Delinquent is taken, and his offence proued, presently his throat is cut: Murder there is death, so is manifest Theft, Adultery, likewise proued by very good witnesse: And somtimes it is death for any man to weare a Sword who is not an Officer, yea, though hee bee a Souldier. Other offences according to the necessitie of the time and pleasure of the King, by Proclama∣tion are made death, which the Hackam must see executed vpon losse of his owne head.

Muckadens, be Substitutes to the Hackam, seeing his iudgement fulfilled, and in his absence * 1.26 [ 60] hath his authortie.

Fokers or Saints, dwell in the best places of the Countrey, keepe great Hospitality for all Tra∣uellers, * 1.27 whither any man come for a night, and be gone in the morning: much good these doe in the Countrey by their example of morall liuing, and bestowing their owne goods in their life

time to helpe the needy and distressed, comprimising differences betwixt parties, and repressing all disorders, winning great loue and respect, for their Houses are held Sanctuaries, whose Pri∣uiledges the King will not violate, but vpon great and weightie reason.

The King, Nobility, and Souldiers desire to serue on Horse-backe, which most commonly they doe, for in any Army there be three Horse for one foot: the King will seldome venture to * 1.28 fight out a battayle, but as you may perceiue by the precedent, it was and is the vsage amongst the three Brethren, when they meete in a field, whosoeuer getteth at the first on-set the aduan∣tage, maketh the other presently leaue the field, and flye vnto some place of strength: they fight with no Armour except a Buffe Ierkin, for the better fort; and a Leather Hide tanned for the meaner, and some Coats of Male, their Armes is a Horse-mans Staffe, Target, and Sword, or a Horse-mans Peece and Sword. [ 10]

The Alarbies serue all vpon Horse, will fight sorer battayles to maintayne their deadly feud, * 1.29 than in seruice of their King: Insomuch that vpon losse of any great Lord or Chiefe man of their Bloud, crull battailes haue ensued, wherein ten thousand men haue beene slayne at one time, and it is their fashion, the fairest Virgin to ride vpon a Camell with a flagge in her hand decked in all pompe to sollicite her Kindred to reuenge, and goeth foremost in the field, encouraging them to follow; vpon which incitement much bloud is spilt, her Kindred as loth to lose their Virgin, and not reuenge their iniuries: the other side striuing to winne her and the field, holding that a continuing glory to the seuenth Generation.

When a man is killed, his Tribe seeketh not reuenge only vpon the man which killed the party, but the first man of that Tribe hee meeteth withall, him will hee kill if he can, and so [ 20] thinketh he hath satisfied his Kinsmans death.

The Brebers or Mountayners likewise maintayne this feud, who are most shot and Sword∣men, * 1.30 vpon the day of battayle their women follow hard behind them, with a colour in their hands, called Hanna: And if they see any of their side offer to runne away, or retyre, presently they will throw some of this Hanna vpon their clothes, which will stayne, and the party euer after is held for a Coward and a dishonoured Iew. For feare of this Infamy, few forsake the field, but eyther conquer their Enemies, or dye like men, who are presently stripped and bu∣ryed by these women which follow them.

The trading of the Moores into Guinee and Gago for Gold [ 30] Ore, or sandie Gold.

MVley Hamet being at peace with his Neighbours, at quiet with his Subiects, determined to warre vpon the Negros, knowing the conquest easie, because the people are vndiscipli∣ned in warre, and the profit would be exceeding great by bringing their Gold into his Coun∣trey, exchanging for it Salt, and other baser Commodities. And howsoeuer certayne Miners had found rich Mines of Gold in the Hils of Atlas, yet hee held it better policy to fetch his * 1.31 Gold farther off, then to digge that which was found in the Centre of his owne Kingdome, fea∣ring if the Mines proued rich, the Golden Ore would draw thither Christian Armes, therefore he cut the throats of all such as were the Authors, and gaue the Masters of the Workes death [ 40] for their hyre.

But to perfect his other Designe, he chose Iudar Basha, sent him with great store of Souldiers, who entred farre into the Negros Countrey, depriuing them of a great City, called Gago, which * 1.32 standeth vpon the Riuer of Synega, three hundred Leagues within the firme Land, builded there an Alpandeca for Barbarian Merchants, and a Custome-house for the King. The Merchants make it sixe monethes Iourney from Moruecos thither, of which, two monethes they passe tho∣row * 1.33 the Sandy Desarts, where no people dwell, neyther any road way, but directed by Pilots, as ships at Sea, obserue the courses of Sunne, Moone, and Stars, for feare of missing their way: If they lose themselues, they meete with Famine, and dye for lacke of water, whose dead car∣kasses * 1.34 consume not, but maketh Munna, * 1.35 or Otema flesh, euery way as Physicall or Medicina∣ble, [ 50] as that which commeth from Alexandria. They neuer trauell vnder two or three hundred in a company: it may be not meeting with water in twelue or fifteene dayes space, but carry water by Camels, both for them and their beasts to drinke, which failing, to saue their owne liues, they kill their Camels, and drinke the blood. If the wind blow at North-east, they can∣not vnlade their Camels, least the Sands should couer them. The Merchandize carried from Moruecos to the Negros, is much Cloth, Amber Beads, Corall, but the chiefest Commodity is Salt, which is bought at Tegazza, and other places, for foure shillings a Camels lading, which * 1.36 is sixe hundred weight, and payeth at Gago fiue pounds for Custome to the King of Barbarie, af∣terward sold farre within the Countrey to a kind of deformed Negros, who will neuer be seene [ 60] in the commerce of trading with the Barbarian, or any stranger: Wherefore they lay their Salt in the fields and leaueth it, then commeth the deformed Negro, and layeth against euery mans pricell of Salt, as much of his gold as he thinketh the Salt is worth, and goeth his way, leauing his gold with the Salt: Then returneth the Moore, if he like the gold, taketh it away, if not, de∣tracteth

so much from his heape, as he will sell to the Negro for his gold. The Negro returning, if he like the quantity, putteth too more gold, or else will not barter, but departeth. Yet they seldome mislike, for the Moore maketh a rich returne, and his King a full Treasure. Wherefore, the deformed Negro is praysed for the truest dealing man in the world: the gold which they haue is not coyned, but like small Grauell or Sand gathered after the gluts of raine, in the drie bankes of Mountaines and Riuers.

Touching Voyages of Englishmen to Barbarie, as also Embassages sent thither by Queene Elizabeth: likewise touching many English Voyages to Guinny, Benin, and other places on the Convinent, and the Ilands adioyning; with Patents also for those parts: the Reader may, of he please, certifie and sa∣tisfie himselfe in Master Edens, and Master Hackluyts Voyages. English Nauigations are now ad∣uanced [ 10] to so great Aduenture, and new or remote Discoueries, that I rather hast•• to them: Yet because I thinke it meete to acquaint the Reader with the present State of the 〈◊〉〈◊〉 parts of Africa: I haue ad∣ded these following Discourses. And because Algier is the Whirle-poole of these S〈…〉〈…〉, the Throne of Pyracie, the Sinke of Trade and Stinke of Slauery; the Cage of vncleare Birds of Proy, the Habita∣tion of Sea-Deuils, the Receptacle of Renegadoes to God, and Traytors to their Countrey; I haue the langer stayed there: both to shew the place out of Nicholay; His Maiesties zealous Designe against them, and Gods goodnesse in two notable Deliuerances from them.

As for Ward, or other English, infesting the World from that Hel-mouth, I was 〈◊〉〈◊〉 to blot these Papers with so rotten Names.
