Albert Duke of Franconia having slaine. the Brother of the Emperour Lewes the fourth, and fearing the Emperours displeasure betook himself into the strong castle of Bamberg. The Emperour thirsting after revenge sought for divers yeares together to take the place, but in vain, at length Hatto Arch Bishop of Ments promises to deliver Albert into the Emperours hand. Going therfore to seek him, & pretending friendship, he perswads him to make his peace, and solemnly swears that if he would goe with him to the Emperour, he would bring him back in safety into his castle. Albert by this cursed wile going out of his Castle is brought into the power of Lewis, who cuts off his head, and bestowes his castle and goods upon periured Hatto. The Emperour approving periury satisfied his lust of revenge, and the false Bishop, acting it, his lust of coveteousnes; But they both went not long unpunished.

Lewis the eleventh of France betrayes all that trust in him, and is himself so followed by furies before he dyes, that he dares trust no man. His sonne Charles the eight by perjury, and breach of covenant gets the heire of Britaine to wife, but soon after in the floure of his years, is suddenly cut off, and leaves his crown and bed to be possessed by his enemy. A certain periured person, hearing a Preacher condemne periury, and laying open Gods judgements attending it, presently out of the Atheisme of his heart said; J doe not see the arme with which I forswore my self shorter then the other, but presently the hand of God overtook him, for that very hand with which he had forsworn, was suddenly so inflamed, that not being able to indure the torment of it, he was forced to have it cut off. And thus he soon saw one arme shorter than the other.

Rodulph Duke of Suenia by the instigation of the Pope and his Ministers, rebells against the Emperor Henry the fourth. After divers conflicts, at length Rodulph is mortally wounded, loosing his right hand: being nigh to death, his right hand being brought unto him, he presently out of remorse of conscience cries out. This is that right hand with which I swore featly to the Emperor. Haec violatae a me fidei argumentum est. In this God speaks plainly that he is an avenger of breach of covenant.

Theodorick had a Courtier (a Deacon say some) that was in favour with him, (upon hope of preferment) became an Arrian, Theodorick therefore slew him with his own hands (or as others, caused him soon to be beheaded) saying, that he would never be true to his King, that was false to his God.

Malcolme suspecting deceit, pretends insufficiency by reason of horrid vices reigning in him, as first immoderate lust and lechery. To this Mak-Duffe replyes, that though this were an horrid vice, yet he would take a course to cover it. Secondly Malcholme tels him that he was the most avaratious creature on the earth. To this Mak-Duffe replies, that though this were a worse vice than the other, yet if he would take the crown upon him, there were riches enough in Scotland to satisfie this greedy desire. But when lastly, Melcholme tels him that he was inclined to dissimulation, and breach of faith, so that he reioyced in nothing so much as in betraying those that should trust him, Mak duffe replies, this yet is the worst of all, and there I leave thee; and so bemoaning his own, and his countries misery break out into teares.
