4. Philip King of Spain earnestly desired marriage with 1Queen Elizabeth, notwithstanding his late marriage with Queen Mary sister to Queen Elizabeth. Now because Gods Word expressly forbiddeth one man to marry two sisters, he pretended to get a dispensation from the Pope. But all his endeavours about so impious a matter, nought prevailed with so pious a Prince. Wherefore he endeavoured to make a marriage betwixt Queen Elizabeth, and Charles, son of Ferdinand then Emperor, and uncle to the said Philip. All was to bring the Kingdom of England to his own linage and family. But neither could this attempt take effect. Whereupon Philip King of Spain became an utter enemy to that royal Queen, which enmity (through the divine providence) turned to Queen Elizabeths glory.
