HI. LONDON: PUBLISHED BY DAVID NUTT IN THE STRAND a, MDCCCXC TABLE OF CONTENTS. VOLUME III. TOME II.— Continued. TITLE PAGE (EDITION 1 580) CJe 53alace of Peasure^ THE TWENTY-THIRD NOUELL. The infortunate manage of a Gentleman, called Antonio Bologna, wyth the Duchejfe of Malfi, and the pitifull death of them loth. The great Honor and authority men haue in thys World, and the greater their eftimation is, the more fenfible and notorious are the faultes by theim committed, and the greater is their flaunder. In lyke manner more difficult it is for that man to tolerate and fus- tayne Fortune, which al the dayes of his life hath lyued at his eafe, if by chaunce he fall into any great neceffity than for hym whych neuer felt but woe, mifliap, and aduerfity. Dyonifius the Tyraunt of Scicilia, felt greater payne when hee was expelled his Kyng- dome, than Milo did, beinge banifhed from Rome: for fo mutch as the one was a Soueraygne Lorde, the fonne of a Kynge, a lufticiary on Earth, and the other but a fimple Citizen of a Citty, wherein the People had Lawes, and the Lawes of Magis- trates were had in reuerence. So lykewyfe the fall of a high and lofty Tree, maketh greater noyfe, than that whych is low and little. Hygh Towers, and ftately Palaces of Prynces bee feene further of, than the poore Cabans, and homely Sheepe- heardes Sheepecotes : the Walles of lofty Cittyes more a loofe doe Salute the Viewers of the fame, than the fimple Caues, which the Poore doe digge belowe theMountayneRockes. Where- fore it behooueth the Noble, and futch as haue charge of Common wealth, to lyue an honeft Lyfe, and beare their port vpright, that none haue caufe to difcourfe vppon their wicked deedes and naughty life. And aboue all modefty ought to be kept by Women, 4 THE DUCHESSE OF MALFI. whom as their racej Noble birth, authority and name, maketh them more famous, euen fo their vertue, honefty, chaftity, and continencie more prayfe worthy. And behoueful it is, that like as they wifhe to be honoured aboue all other, fo their life do make them worthy of that honour, without difgracing their name by deed or worde, or blemifhing that brightnefle which may com- mend the fame. I greatly feare that all the Princely faftes, the exploytes and conquefts done by the Babylonian Queene Semy- ramis, neuer was recommended wyth futch prayfe, as hir vice had fhame in records by thofe which left remembrance of auncient aflis. Thus I fay, becaufe a woman being as it were the Image of fweetnefle, curtefie and fhamefaftnefle, fo foone as fhe fteppeth out of the right tradl, and abandoneth the fweete fmel of hir duety and modefly, befides the denigration of hir honour, thrufleth her felfe into infinite Troubles, caufeth ruine of futch whych fhould bee honoured and prayfed, if Womens Allure- mentes folicited theym not to Folly. I wyll not heere Indeuour my felfe to feeke for examples of Samfon, Salomon or other, which fuffred themfelues fondly to be abufed by Women : and who by meane of them be tumbled into great faults, and haue in- curred greater perils : contentinge my felfe to recyte a ryght pitifull Hiftory done almoft in our tyme, when the French vnder leadinge of that notable Capitayne Gafton de Foix, vanquiftied the force of Spayne and Naples at the lourney of Rauenna in the time of the French Kynge called Lewes the twelfth, who married the Lady Mary, Daughter to Kynge Henry the feuenth, and Sifter to the Victorious Prynce of worthy memory kynge Henry the eyght, Wyfe (after the death of the fayd Lewes) to the puiflaunt Gentleman Charles, late Duke of SufFolke. In the very tyme then lyued a Gentleman of Naples called Antonio Bologna, who hauing bin mafter of Houfehold to Fredericke of Aragon, fomtime kinc of Naples, after the French had expelled thofe of Aragon out of that Citty, the fayde Bologna retyred into Fraunce, and thereby re- couered the goods, which hee poffefled in his countrey. The Gen- tleman befides that he was valiant of his perfone, a good man. of Warre, and wel efl:eemed amongs the beft, had a paffing numbre of good graces, which made him to be loued and cherifhed of euery : THE DUCHESSE OF MALFI. 5 wight : and for riding and managing of greate horfe, he had not his fellow in Italy : he could alfo play exceedynge well and trim ypon the Lute, whofe fayning voyce fo wel agreed therevnto, that the mofte melancholike perfons would forget their heauineffe, vpon hearing of his heauenly noyfe : and befides these qualyties, he was of perfonage comely, and of good proportion. To be fliort nature hauing trauayled and difpoyled hir Treafure Houfe for in- riching of him, he had by Arte gotten that, which made him moft happy and worthy of prayfe, which was, the knowledge of good letters, wherein he was fo well trayned, as by talke and dif' pute thereof, he made thofe to blufli that were of that ftate and profeffion. Antonio Bologna hauing left Fredericke of Aragon in Fraunce, who expulfed out of Naples was retired to king Lewes, went home to his houfe to lyue at refi: and to auoyd trouble, for- getting the delicates of Courtes and houfes of great men, to bee the only huiband of his owne reueneue. But what ? it is impos- fible to efchue that which the heauens haue determined vpon vs or to fhunne the vnhappe which feemeth to follow vs, as it were naturally proceeding from our mother's Wombe : in futch wyfe as many times, he which feemeth the wifefl: man, guided by miffor- tune, hafteth himfelf with ftouping head to fall headlonge into hys death and ruine, Euen fo it chaunced to this Neapolitane Gentle- man : for in the very fame place where he attained his aduaunce- ment, he receiued alfo his diminution and decay, and by that houfe which preferred hym to what he had, he was depryued, both of his eftate and life : the difcourfe whereof you fhall vn- derftande. I haue tolde you already, that this Gentleman was Mayfter of the kinge of Naples houfehold, and beyng a gentle perfon, a good Courtier, wel trained vp, and wyfe for gouernment of himfelf in the Courte and in the feruice of Princes, the Ducheffe of Malfi thought to intreate him that he would ferue hir, in that office which he ferued the King. This Ducheffe was of the houfe of Aragon, and fifter to the Cardinall of Aragon, which then was a rych and puiffant perfonage. Being refolued, and perfuaded, that Bologna was deuoutly affefted to the houfe of Aragon, as one brought vp there from a Chylde : fhee fent for him home to his Houfe, and vpon hjs repaire vfed vnto him thefe, 6 THE DUCHESSE OF MALFI. " nay or like Woordes : Mayfter Bologna, fith your ill fortune, rather the vnhap of our whole Houfe is futch, as your good Lord and Mayfter hath forgon his ftate and dignity, and that you ther- withall haue loft a good Maifter, without other recom pence but the prayfe which euery man giueth you for your good feruice, I haue thought good to intreat you to doe me the honor, as to take charge of the gouernment of my Houfe, and to vfe the fame, as you did- that of the King your maifter. I know well that the office is to vnworthy for your calling; notwithftanding you be not ignorant what I am, and how neare to him in bloud, to whom you haue bene a Seruaunte fo faythfull and Louing ; and albeit that I am no Queene, endued with greateft reuenue, yet with that little portyon I haue, I beare a Pryncely heart : and futch as you by experience do knowe what I haue done, and dayly do to thofe which depart my feruice, recompenfing them according to theyr paine and trauaile : magnificence is obferued as well in the Courts of poore Princes, as in the ftately Palaces of great Kings and monarches. I do remembre that I haue read of a certain noble gentleman, a Perfian borne, called Ariobarzanes, who vfed great examples of curtefie and ftoutnefle towards King Artaxerxes, wherewith the king wondred at his magnificence, and confefled himfelf to be vanquifhed : you fhal take aduife of this requeft, and in the meane time do think you will not refufe the fame, afwell for that my demaund is iuft, as alfo being afllired, that our Houfe and race is fo well imprinted in your heart, as it is im- poffible that the memory thereof can be defaced.'* The gentle- man hearynge that curteous demaund of the Ducheffe, knowino- himfelfe how deepely bound he was to the name of Aragon, and led by fome vnknowen prouocation to his great il luck, anfwered " hir in this wife : I would to God, Madame, that with fo good reafon and equity I were able to make denyall of your commaund- ment, as iuftly you maye require the fame : wherfore for the bounden duety which I owe to the name and memorie of the houfe of Aragon, I make promife that I fhall not only fuftaine the trauell, but alfo the daunger of my Lyfe, dayly to be offred for your feruice : but I feele in mynde I know not what, which com- maundeth me to withdraw my felfe to lyue alone at home within THE DUCHESSE OF MALFI.

Argent, a bear sejant erect sable and on a chief enarched rayonny gules a lightning bolt argent. Elyenora Houll. Device. Argent, three leaves bendwise sinister vert between two scarpes sable between six dragonflies purpure. This was originally pended on the February 2007 LoAR. Marija Kotok. Name change from Mariia Kotova. Precedent set in October 2002 forbade the registration of unmarked patronymics in Russian names: Bola is a Russian masculine given name. Lacking evidence that Russian used unmarked patronymic bynames, we have changed this to the patronymic form Bolin in order to register this name. [Gorm Bolin, 10/2002, A-Middle] This appeal raised the issue of whether there is evidence for unmarked patronymic bynames in Russian. The submitter and commenters provided examples that could be interpreted as unmarked patronymics in Russian names. Furthermore, they found statements from authorities on Russian names supporting unmarked patronymics as a rare practice in Russian names. The evidence presented is sufficient to allow unmarked patronymics in Russian names as a rare, but registerable practice. Therefore, this name is registerable. For more details on the information provided for this practice, see this month’s Cover Letter. This was originally pended on the February 2007 LoAR. Her old name, Mariia Kotova, is released. Petr Kotok. Name change from Petr Kotov. His old name, Petr Kotov, is released. This name is a Russian name using an unmarked patronymic.

Something else (that is important to you) of your choosing 2. Use a piece of construction paper to display your coat of arms. Neatness, presentation, and creativity count. 3. Attach a one–paragraph explanation for each of the three or four sections symbolically depicted on the shield, and explain in one additional paragraph why you chose your "motto for life." These four/five paragraphs must be typed and edited. USE YOUR IMAGINATION AND HAVE FUN!
