Politique Observation.

A Generous Prince, cannot bear indignities without resenting of them, his courage is a fire which tormenteth him with continual impatiences, until he hath punish't the Authors which such usage, as they deserve: he is not at all allayed with the injuries he hath suffered, but thence takes fresh courage to assault them the more furiously; He well knoweth that a firm a strong resolution, is the best Counsel which can be taken in such affairs, not to be astonished, at any thing whatever and to keep ones self immovable to his Principles of rendring himself known to his Ene∣mies by the strength of his Arms, and how they do but wro••g themselves in attemp∣ting any thing contrary to the respect, and the fidelity, which is due unto him.
