Letter from Richard Hakluyt to Sir Francis Walsingham, ist April, 1584. ... 80 In the first part of this letter Hakluyt urges on Sir Francis Walsingham the foundation of a lecture on Mathematics in Oxford, and another, on * the Arte of Navigation' in London, at a yearly stipend of Fifty pounds each. * In my simple judgment,' writes Hakluyt, the money so spent 'wold be the best hundred pounds bestowed, that was bestowed these five hundred yeares in England.' The remainder of the letter gives various items of news which may be of political interest to Walsingham. The letter was written when Hak- luyt was chaplain to the Embassy in Paris. It is docquetted ' primo Aprilis 1584. Ffrom M'- Hak- luite the preacher at Paris ' and endorsed in a modern hand ' This is a private not a diplomatic letter from Hackluyt to Walsingham.' The repro- duction is made, by permission, from the original vii ILLUSTRATIONS preserved in the Public Record Office. The letter itself runs as follows : Right honorable : the famouse disputations in al the partes of the mathematicks wch at this present are held in Paris for the gayning of the lecture wch was erected by the worthy scholer Petrus Ramus to the greate increase of those excellent sciences, put mee in mynd to sollicite yo" honour agayne and agayne for the erection of that lecture of the Arte of Navigation, whereof 1 have had some speach with yo"" Honor, Sir Ffrancis Drake, and Alderman Barnes and other. And that you might meet with al inconveniences wch might frustrate the expected profit wch is hoped for by the erection of the same, I send yo^ honor heare the testament of Petrus Ramus newely put out agayne in printe and sent unto mee by Monsieur Bergeron Ramus his executor, whereby you may see, first the exceeding zeale that man had to benefit his countrey, in bestowing 500 livres (wch as yo"" honor knoweth) is fiftie pound sterling, uppon establishing of that lecture, bequething not halfe soe much to al the kinred and friends he had. Secondly you may note that he being one of the most famouse clerks of Europe thought those sciences next after divinitie to be most necessarie for the comonwelth, in that he erected a newe lecture of the same, wheras there was one before erected and endued with fiftie pound stipend by the Kinge of Ffrance. Thirdly that most provident order wch the good man by his wil hath taken, is most requisite to be put in execution in England : wch is, that every three yeares, there shalbe publicke disputations signified to al men by publicke writing, wherein yt shalbe free for any man for three moneths space to dispute agaynst the reader for the tyme being, who yf he be found negligent, or yf any one of the competitours be found more worthy by the opinion of certayne ILLUSTRATIONS indifferent men of lerninge chosen out of purpose to be judges, that then the unworthier shal give place to the more sufficient : who so being placed is bound in three yeares space to read through the course of the mathematicks. Yf by yo"" honors in- stigation Her Majestic might be enduced to erect such a lecture in Oxford, and the like for the Arte of navigation might by some other meanes be estab- lished at London, allowing to ech of them fiftie pounds yearly with the same conditions, in my simple judgment yt wold be the best hundred pounds bestowed, that was bestowed these five hundred yeares in England. Ffor yt is not unknowne unto yo"" wisedome, howe necessarie for service of warres arithmeticke and geometric are, and for our newe discoveries and longe voyages by sea the arte of navigation is, wch is compounded of many partes of the aforesayd sciences. Understanding heareto- fore of your honours greate aboundance of business, and yo' dangerouse sicknes, I thought yt not meet to trouble yo"" honor with such things as I had carefully sought out here in Ffrance concerning the furtherance of the westerne discoveries, but chose rather to imparte the same wth M^- Carlile, wch thing I also did. But being lately advertised of yo' recovery (for wch I humbly thanke almightie God) 1 was bold to signifie unto yo" honor my dealing with Horatio Palavicini to become an adventurer in those westerne voyages, and among other talke alleadged yo' good disposition to the same, wch he hearing of replyed very cheerfully, that yf he were moved^ thereto by the lest word from yo"^ honor, he wold put in his hundred pound adventure, or more, Yf Mr. Carlile bee gon, yet yt might come in good tyme to serve M*"' Ffrobisher's turne, yf yo' wisedome shold like wel of yt, seing he setteth not foorth as I understand until the beginning of May. I understand that the papists give out secretly in ix ILLUSTRATIONS the towne that there shall shortly come forth a confutation of the defence of the execution of justice in England, wch was set foorth in English and French in London. When yt cometh foorth I trust to have yt with the first. There is good hope that the minister and those that were taken lately with him in Paris by the abbot of St. Geneveva shal very shortly be set at libertie. For the King secretly seemeth to favour them, and they have very discreetly annswered for themselves that they were not at any communion or sermon, but that they mett together to consult whether to goe out of Paris to some place lawful by the edicte. A friend of myne told mee he heard a frier enveigh very exceeding bitterly agaynst them in a sermon before a greate congregation of people. Wee have heard by diverse letters from Geneva that beside the earthquake wch was there about the end of Ffebruarie wch untyled many houses and overthrow'd many chymneis in the towne, there is beside a whole village in the countrey of Wallerye swallowed up, being foure dayes iourney of Geneva. Those who favour the Spanish here in the towne have spred al abroad these two or three dayes that Monsieur is dead : wch is nothing soe. Thus leaving other matters and advertisements of importance to those unto whom they appertayne, with remembrance of the continuance of my humble dutie to yo' honor and yo'' worthy and vertuous Sonne in lawe I leve you to the merciful protection of the Almightie.

PUBLISHERS' NOTE Professor Walter Raleigh's Essay, which forms the first portion of this volume, was printed in September, 1904, and the delay in issuing it is due to the great labour involved in the preparation of the Index. The Index of each of the separate volumes was com- piled and checked by Madame Marie Michon, while the whole has been put together into one alphabet by Miss Elizabeth Carmont, who has also identified the names of places. While the greater part of the labour has fallen on Madame Michon and Miss Carmont, the Publishers have also to express their obligations for much assistance received from various sources. The dates, with the exception of those giving the births and deaths of the principal personages, are founded on Hakluyt's text. Under any circumstances the preparation of an Index ot such magnitude must have involved difficulties, but these have been greatly increased by the variety of spellings which were common in the sixteenth century, by the frequent references to places under names which are now obsolete, and to minor characters whom it is now difficult to identify. The Publishers cannot hope, notwithstanding the care bestowed upon it, that the Index is even now free from PUBLISHERS' NOTE error, but they trust that it may be of some service to students of history, and especially to those interested in Elizabethan Voyages. The proofs of the whole work, including the Index, have been read by Mr. S. Douglas Jackson, who has also written the biographical and descriptive notes which appear in the list of illustrations at the beginning of each volume. Glasgow, 20th April, 1905. THE TWELFTH VOLUME OF THE Principall Navigations, Voyages, Traffiques and Discoveries of the English Nation Containing an Essay by Walter Raleigh on the English Voyages of the Sixteenth Century and an Index to the whole work The English Voyages of the Sixteenth Century By Walter Raleigh ' 'T^HE great prose epic of the modern English The Epic -^ nation ' is itself but an incident or episode in a y^^l^. greater and wider world-drama. The discovery and settlement of America by the western peoples of Europe is the last act in a play which began in the cradle of the Aryans and which unrolls its vast theme leisurely, observing none of the unities. In this historical pageant the hero is often changed ; one nation after another presses to the front and draws to itself the eyes of all spectators ; one after another falls from its pre-eminence and yields its place to a new-comer. For many ages the light which permits us to follow the fortunes of humanity is focussed on the Mediterranean ; we witness the struggle of conflicting civilisations, the rise and fall of the monarchies of the East, the passionate and lyrical intrusion of the Greek on the slowly unfolding plot, the rivalry of Roman and Phoenician, and the grouping of the actors under the spell of Rome in a towering world- polity. But the group falls asunder almost before it is completed; the interest of the action shifts from the xn THE ENGLISH VOYAGES centre of the stage, and a new purpose declares itself. There is confused fighting of Saracen with Christian, the decoruhi of place and time is no longer observed, alarums and excursions and the breathless tales of messengers disturb the even development of the story, until, as on the stage which vexed the soul of Sir Philip Sidney, ' you shall have Asia of the one side, and Affrick of the other, and so many other under-kingdoms, that the Player, when he cometh in, must ever begin with telling where he is ; or else the tale will not be conceived.' When the Island race makes its late appearance among the heroes of this romantic drama, the tale it has to tell is the diffused and exciting tale embodied in these Principal Navigations^ Voyages^ Traffiqties^ and Discoveries of the English Nation, compiled by Richard Hakluyt. Like the drama to which it belongs, the compilation of Hakluyt has seemed to some critics to be lacking in The Quest of form and unity. Here are voyas^es and travels to all the Far East. ^ , \, j i i j parts or the world, prosecuted through many ages, under- taken by all kinds of adventurers, and animated by the most divers purposes. Men have travelled, as they have lived, for religion, for wealth, for knowledge, for pleasure, for power and the overthrow of rivals. Yet no very profound acquaintance with Hakluyt's book is needed to discern, as he clearly discerned, the single thread of interest running through all these pilgrimages. The discovery of the new Western World followed, as an incidental consequence, from the long struggle of the nations of Europe for commercial supremacy and the control of the traffic with the East. In all the dreams of the politicians and merchants, sailors and geographers, who pushed back the limits of the unknown world, there THE VOYAGERS is the same glitter of gold and precious stones, the same odour of far-fetched spices. While the main trade routes to the East still lay overland, the maritime states of Italy, Genoa and Venice, held the keys of that traffic. Venice and By their rivalry navigation was improved ; the mariner's ^^^'^'^' compass came into general use early in the Fifteenth Century ; and although the power of Genoa was broken by the surrender of her fleet at Chiozza in 1380, her ancient enemy was not left for long in undisputed posses- sion. Beyond the gates of the Mediterranean a new rival arose ; and during the whole of the Fifteenth Century, the Portuguese, having learned their craft from the Italians, Portugal. were steadily creeping down the western coast of Africa, rounding capes, discovering islands, making maps and charts, always with the same hope of finding a new and safer passage to the markets of the East. In the year 1410 Prince Henry the Navigator, a younger son of King John 1 of Portugal, began his systematic explora- tions. His aims and methods were those which, in a later age, Hakluyt constantly recommended to the government of England. He established a naval college, and called to his service the best science of the time. In 141 9 Madeira was discovered. In 1439 Cape Bojador was rounded, and, seven years later. Cape de Verde. Voyagers In 1448 settlements were established on the Azores or Hawk Islands. So, step by step, advance was made, until, in i486, Bartholomew Diaz doubled the Cape of Good Hope, and in 1498, hwQ and a half years after the first voyage of Columbus, Vasco de Gama crossed the Indian Ocean and cast anchor on the coast of Malabar. Thus the way was opened by sea to China and Japan, and the Portuguese, by their own labours, and by the 3 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Papal Bull of Pope Martin V, granted in 1444, came into possession of all the lands they had visited, as far as the Indies. Spain. To a Spaniard of the later Fifteenth Century the politics of Europe must have worn something the same aspect that they wore for an Englishman of the Six- teenth. The world had been divided among rival claimants, and his country had been left portionless. But it was not by the genius of a Spaniard that the balance was redressed. Christopher Columbus, a Genoese, who had passed his youth in the commerce and wars of the Mediterranean, settled in Lisbon about 1470, married the daughter of one of Prince Henry's men, and devoted himself to map-making and the study of navigation, diversified by occasional cruises to the coast of Guinea. At Lisbon, which was the headquarters of the best and latest school of navigation, he was kept in touch with the progress of Portuguese discovery, and must have learned all there was to know concerning the difficulties and dangers of the circumnavigation of Africa, and the hopes that inspired the Portuguese in their unceasing eiforts. He was a dreamer, a grave and pious man, of a simple mind, and great tenacity of The Scheme of imagination. To him there came the idea that Cathay, ^^ ^^- ^\^Q ultimate goal of all Eastern travel, and Cipangu, * the richest island in the world for gold and spices,' might best be reached by striking directly across the trackless Atlantic. Memories of his reading, whether in boyhood at the University of Pavia, or in the hours of study stolen from an active life, confirmed him, by the opinions of the Ancients, and the mistakes of mediaeval geographers, in his belief that the width of the Atlantic 4 THE VOYAGERS was easily passable, and that on the other side, over against the coast of Spain, lay the fabled riches of China and Japan. He planned his voyage to America because he believed that no such country existed ; and he died without being undeceived. The story of Columbus has been told a hundred times, and need not be repeated at length. His overtures Offered to to King John II of Portugal came to nothing, from ^'^^^^S^^- causes readily intelligible and eternally operative in the affairs of this world. A great man*s ideas are too broad and simple to be understood by the trained official mind. The King referred the proposal of Columbus to a council of bishops, astronomers, and learned persons. The fame of the Portuguese school of navigation stood high ; the exploration of the coast of Africa and the use of the astrolabe at sea were among its most recent achievements ; and the school-bred geographers and professors of navigation were in no mind to listen patiently to the projects of a private visionary. Never- theless the confidence and enthusiasm of Columbus made an impression on some of his judges, and, at the in- stigation of the bishop of Ceuta, a caravel was surrepti- tiously equipped and despatched to attempt the adventure. The seamen lost heart ; the attempt failed ; and when this piece of sharp practice came to the knowledge of Columbus he left Portugal, in 1484, to offer his services elsewhere. For years his scheme went a-begging. It was during this time, in 1488, that he sent his brother Bartholomew into England with an offer to King Henry Jnd to VII. Bartholomew fell into the hands of pirates, and ^^S^"^^^- was long delayed in his journey, so that when at last he returned to Spain to notify King Henry's joyful accept- 5 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES ance of the offer, he was too late ; the patronage of Ferdinand and Isabella had already been obtained, and Columbus had set sail for the West. The pirates, in the pursuit of their calling, were ' the occasion,' as Hakluyt has it, ' why the West Indies were not dis- covered for England/ The time of England was not yet come. A striking contrast might be drawn between the two nations, Spain, which gained the whole credit and profit of the enterprise of Columbus, and England, which so The shipmen narrowly missed it. A hundred years later, in the defeat oj ngan . ^^ ^^ Great Armada, the contrast was to be pointed, but already it was apparent. 'The English sailors,' wrote Ferdinand's ambassador at the Court of King Henry VII, ' are generally savages.' They were unchanged since the days of Chaucer, and picked up a living, without loss of temper, from a precarious coasting trade and adventures not easily distinguishable from piracy. The character of the English sailor is the most inalter- able and valuable of national assets ; while the British Constitution has moved from precedent to precedent, he has remained the same. His life is a hard one, but he takes it as it comes. He is untouched by the formal punctilios of the cavalier and the cankered scruples of the puritan. He is careless of the graces and ornaments of life. Though he has a warm heart, he is no humani- tarian. Danger is his daily companion, and he has learned the lesson of Sir Edward Howard, that a seaman is useless unless he is resolute to the degree of madness. Above all, he is alert and serious in what concerns his craft. Of all professions, the sailor is habituated to subordinate himself most completely to the necessities 6 THE VOYAGERS of the work to be done. We know little of the English sailors of the time of King Henry VII. But we know them at an earlier time, and we shall meet them again later, in the day of their triumph. When Columbus arrived at Cordova, in i486, to lay his propositions before the allied monarchs of Castile and Arragon, he found there a Court and a nation little disposed to pay attention to nautical adventure. The campaign against the Moors for the conquest of Granada was being inaugurated with all the pomp and splendour of mediaeval chivalry. Decadent feudalism, trained in Thej:avahers ^ _ of Spain, the stately formalities of Courts and the subtleties of Catholic theology, was to have the task of conquering and settling the West Indies. But the hidalgos and cavaliers who thronged with their retinues to the camp at Cordova had no foreboding of their destiny. Many of them were to be lost at sea, or to die miserably in remote islands, at the bidding of the poor man in simple apparel who was unable to gain a hearing from them. In the meantime Spain, with the infidel at her gates, cared little for the sea. The marvel is not that Columbus crossed the Atlantic, but that by his resolute importunity he secured the help of the Court of Spain. His scheme was little understood; but in Spain religion is under- stood, and, by long cherishing, his belief in his mission had acquired the intensity and the elevation of a creed. It was this which won him the friendship of Friar Juan Perez, at the convent of La Rabida, and it was this which, in the end, secured for him the whole-hearted sympathy and support of Isabella of Castile. In October, 1492, he landed at San Salvador in the Bahama Islands. By the conquest and settlement of Cuba and the West 7 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Indies Spain entered on her career as a candidate for the The Bull of dominion of the world. To avoid an internecine struggle between Spain and Portugal, Pope Alexander VI, who was a Spaniard by birth, issued, in 1493, his famous Bull, whereby the world was divided by a line running from pole to pole a hundred leagues west of the Azores, and all newly discovered lands to east and west of this line assigned in absolute possession to the crowns of Portugal and Castile respectively. For the next half-century both Spain and Portugal were busy in consolidating and extending their domains, little disturbed by newer competitors. But the tale of the nations was not yet complete. Venice, Genoa, Portugal and Spain were to be followed by France and England in the race for the Far East. Italian Each of these latter countries, like Spain, owed its earliest Navigators. . • r t i- • impulse to the genius of an Italian navigator. One land sent forth the masters of the Old World and the dis- coverers of the New ; though they were never to enter into their inheritance, they saw it with their eyes ; and the beginnings of modern science, art, and civilisation are John Cabot, the debt of the world to Italy. In 1497, John Cabot, a citizen of Venice who had settled as a trader at Bristol, having obtained letters patent from King Henry VII, sailed with two ships out of Bristol and discovered the coast of Labrador. As his was the first expedition to reach the mainland of America, which Columbus never set eyes on till a year later, much has been made in con- troversy of the priority of the English claim. But indeed in these timid beginnings nothing was further from the purpose of England than to enter on a contest with other powers for the possession of America. The success of 8 THE VOYAGERS Columbus had set the court of King Henry aflame with the promise that it offered of a direct route to Cathay, ' insomuch that all men, with great admiration, affirmed it to be a thing more divine than human, to sail by the West into the East, where the spices grow, by a way that was never known before.' Shortly after this it was ascertained that beyond America there lay a halcyon sea, yielding direct access to the promised land. In 15 13 Vasco Nunez de Balboa, from a height The Pacific above his colony at Darien, saw the Pacific Ocean ; and ^^^^^'^^^^^• in 1520 the Portuguese navigator, Magellan, rounded South America through the straits that bear his name, and sailed across the Pacific to the Philippines, where he met his death. From this time forward, for many years, the aim of European navigators was not to explore or settle America, rather to discover a passage whereby America might be avoided, and a way opened to the lands beyond. But the progress of investigation revealed no break in that great barrier. The French voyagers, who. The French like the English, followed the lead of a native of Italy, ^^y^S^^^^- were long buoyed up by the hope of finding a better route than the Straits of Magellan, which were far south, dangerous to navigate, and, moreover, were in the possession of Spain. In 1523, Giovanni Verazzano, a Florentine in the service of King Francis I, explored the coast of what is now the United States, from Georgia northward, and of great part of Canada. He was followed by the brothers Parmentier ; by Jacques Cartier, who in 1535 sailed up the St. Lawrence and discovered and named Montreal ; by the Sieur de Roberval ; and many others. To the earliest voyagers, as in the earliest 9 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES maps, America was known as a chain of islands, and The barrier ^j^^j-e was something: inherently incredible in the idea of continent. • • -vt a great continent stretching North and South over the tropical and temperate zones. When that idea was accepted, there remained a last hope, the discovery of a passage through one of the innumerable inlets of the North, whereby the nations situated in colder seas than those of Spain might redeem their disadvantages, and claim a share in the spoils of the world. It is at this point that the story of the English Voyages begins. The actions that move the world have been prompted and inspired by dreams and visions. The search for the philosopher's stone laid the foundations of modern chemistry ; modern travel and geography owe their chief Cathay. advances to the search for the fabled realm of Cathay. Traditions and fantasies concerning the Golden Age and the Earthly Paradise are interwoven with all the practical designs of the early navigators. The poets of the ancient world are the true fathers of later science. So early as the sixth century the monk Cosmas, in his Universal Christian Topography^ states the object of many a later The Earthly quest. ' If Paradise,' he says, ' were really on the Paradise. surface of this world, is there not many a man among those who are so keen to learn and search out everything, that would not let himself be deterred from reaching it } When we see that there are men who will not be deterred from penetrating to the ends of the earth in search of silk, and all for the sake of filthy lucre, how can we believe that they would be deterred from going to get a sight of Paradise?' All through the Middle Ages the dream held sway, and Paradise was sought in the East. Columbus, seeking it by another route, believed THE VOYAGERS that he was near it when, on his third voyage, he came to the mouths of the Orinoco, and found a mild climate, green hills, fresh foliage, and a people light in colour and graceful in form. The earth, he explains, is probably Columbus on not spherical, but elongated like a pear, and on the ^^^P^ ^/^^^ summit of the protuberance is situated the Earthly Paradise, * whither no one can go but by God's permission.' ' I think also,' he goes on, ' that the water I have described may proceed from it, though it be far off, and that stopping at the place I have just left, it forms this lake. There are great indications of this being the terrestrial paradise, for its site coincides with the opinion of the holy and wise theologians whom I have mentioned ; and moreover, the other evidences agree with the supposition, for I have never either read or heard of fresh water coming in so large a quantity, in close conjunction with the water of the sea; the idea is also corroborated by the blandness of the temperature ; and if the water of which I speak, does not proceed from the Earthly Paradise, it appears to be still more marvellous, for I do not believe that there is any river in the world so large or so deep.' Whether approached by the East or by the West, this Earthly Paradise was to be sought, all were agreed, in the neighbourhood of Cathay. This great kingdom of the East had long been dimly known as an object of curiosity and wonder. By the revival of Christianity at the time of St. Francis and St. Franciscan Dominic a great impulse was given to missionary travel, ^^"^°^^^^^^' and the marvellous tales brought back by wandering friars took a firm hold on the imagination of Europe. Rubruquis, a Flemish Franciscan, who, about the middle II THE ENGLISH VOYAGES The Fountain of Youth. Marco Polo. of the thirteenth century, was sent by St. Louis on a mission to the Tartar chiefs, brought back the report that ' there is a certain province on the other side of Cathay, and whatever a man's age be when he enters that province he never gets any older/ The friar is careful to add that he does not believe a word of this report, but it found credence from others, and so late as 1 5 12 Juan Ponce de Leon, an old Spanish cavalier, Governor of Puerto Rico, landed in Florida while he was cruising in search of a country alleged to contain a miraculous Fountain of Youth. Besides Rubruquis there were other friars whose accounts of the East were well known to later explorers. John of Piano Carpini in the Thirteenth Century was followed later by John of Monte Corvino, who passed many years of his life at the Court of the Grand Khan of Cathay, founded a flourishing Christian community, built a church, and was made Archbishop of Cambalu, or Pekin. Odoric of Pordenone was, like these, a Franciscan ; his residence at Pekin belongs to the early part of the Fourteenth Century. The reports brought by these travellers of the survival of some remnants of Nestorian Christianity in the East lent colour to the legend of Prester John, the mythical Christian potentate, who continued to be an object of research down to the time of the Portuguese voyages. The greatest of all mediaeval travellers, Marco Polo, who spent a quarter of a century, from 1 27 1 to 1295, in the East, was a Venetian of a noble merchant family, and did more perhaps than any other writer to excite interest in the glories of Cathay. The accounts given by Marco Polo and Odoric, long believed to be adorned and heightened by fables, have THE VOYAGERS come to be recognised as veracious and exact narratives, erring here and there only from natural misconceptions. Their descriptions of the Great Khan's Court, of the KhublaKkan, magnificence of his retinue, and the resources and extent of his Empire, might well excite Western curiosity and stimulate the efforts of voyagers. It was not without reason that Hakluyt included in his compilation the stories of some of these Eastern travellers ; without them his epic would lack its true beginning. The travels of Marco Polo were too well known to be inserted, but they are essential to the completeness of the book. The quest of Cathay, then, is the main theme of this long poem of adventure ; it is the purpose and soul of centuries of travel. But the theme is diversified with episodes and digressions and underplots. The singleness of an enterprise is not necessarily re- flected in the minds and hearts of all who take part in it. Men who left their homes, and sailed to an unknown world, were influenced by the most diverse motives, political or religious, commercial or scientific. In not a few cases the ' good unsought discoveries ' made by the way caused the original purpose to be forgotten. The Letters of Columbus, at the outset of the history, foreshadow some later developments. Columbus him- '^^^ ^^^^^ of self was full of zeal for the spread of Christianity, and the increase of knowledge. But it was necessary to show that his expedition would pay its promoters in temporal coin. ' I gave to the subject,' he says in the account of his Third Voyage, * six or seven years of great anxiety, explaining, to the best of my ability, how great service might be done to our Lord, by this undertaking, 13 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES in promulgating His sacred name and our holy faith among so many nations ; — an enterprise so exalted in itself, and so calculated to enhance the glory and immortalize the renown of the greatest sovereigns. It was also requisite to refer to the temporal prosperity, which was foretold in the writings of so many trustworthy and wise historians, who related that great riches were to be found in those parts. And at the same time I thought it desirable to bring to bear upon the subject, the sayings and opinions of those who have written upon the geography of the world. And finally, your Highnesses came to the determination that the under- The spread of taking should be entered upon.' To add a whole realm nsttantty. ^^ Christendom was in the opinion of Columbus a sufficient object and reward. The people of the West Indian islands, he says, ' all clearly understand each other's speech, a circumstance very propitious for the realization of what I conceive to be the principal wish of our most serene King, namely, the conversion of these people to the holy faith of Christ.' And again, — ' Let the King and Queen, our Princes and their most happy Kingdoms, and all the other provinces of Christen- dom, render thanks to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, who has granted us so great a victory and such prosperity. Let processions be made, and sacred feasts be held, and the temples be adorned with festive boughs. Let Christ rejoice on earth, as he rejoices in heaven in the prospect of the salvation of the souls of so many nations hitherto lost. Let us also rejoice, as well on account of the exaltation of our faith, as on account of the increase of our temporal prosperity, of which not only Spain, but all Christendom wiU be partakers.' 14 THE VOYAGERS To reinforce this magnanimous and generous motive The increase of Columbus quotes instances ' of what great princes ^^^'^^^^i^- throughout the world have done to increase their fame : as, for example, Solomon, who sent from Jerusalem to the uttermost parts of the East, to see Mount Sopora, in which expedition his ships were detained three years ; and which mountain your Highnesses now possess in the island of Hispaniola ; . . . Alexander, who sent to observe the mode of Government in the island of Taprobana, in India ; and Cassar Nero, to explore the sources of the Nile, and to learn the causes of its increase in the Spring, when water is needed ; and many other mighty deeds which princes have done, and which it is allotted to princes to achieve.' Lastly, there is 'the recent noble example of the Kings q{ The example ^ ° of Portugal Portugal, who have had the courage to explore as far as Guinea, and to make the discovery of it, expending so much gold and so many lives in the undertaking, that a calculation of the population of the kingdom would show that one half of them have died in Guinea ; and though it is now a long time since they com- menced these great exertions, the return for their labour and expense has hitherto been but trifling ; this people has also dared to make conquests in Africa, and to carry on their exploits to Ceuta, Tangier, Algiers, and Alcazar, repeatedly giving battle to the Moors ; and all this at great expense ; simply because it was an exploit worthy of a prince, undertaken for the service of God, and to advance the enlargement of His Kingdom.' In consonance with these aims, the behaviour of Columbus Columbus and to the natives of Hispaniola was ordered by the loftiest the Indians. code of a Spanish gentleman. ' I gave,' he says, ' to 15 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES all I approached whatever articles I had about me, such as cloth and many other things, taking nothing of theirs in return : but they are naturally timid and fearful. Indian As soon however as they see that they are safe, and virtues, have laid aside all fear, they are very simple and honest, and exceedingly liberal with all they have ; none of them refusing anything he may possess when he is asked for it, but on the contrary inviting us to ask them. They exhibit great love towards all others in preference to themselves ; they also give objects of great value for trifles, and content themselves with very little or nothing in return. I however forbade that these trifles and articles of no value (such as pieces of dishes, plates, and glass, keys, and leather straps) should be given to them, although if they could obtain them, they imagined themselves to be possessed of the most beautiful trinkets in the world. . . . They bartered, like idiots, cotton and gold for fragments of bows, glasses, bottles and jars ; which I forbade, as being unjust, and myself gave them many beautiful and acceptable articles which I had brought with me, taking nothing from them in return ; I did this in order that I might the more easily conciliate them, that they might be led to become Christians, and be inclined to enter- tain a regard for the King and Queen, our Princes, and The fate of all Spaniards.' With this fair dawn of mutual courtesy, ispamoa, gi^j^gj-^y^ ^^^ ^h^ traffic of honourable men, began a day of pillage and cruelty and devastation such as the world has seldom seen. Twelve years after the first landing of Columbus the five great tribes of Hispaniola were all but exterminated. Many of the Indians perished by the sword, many under the lash of the 16 THE VOYAGERS Spanish task-master ; others died of hunger in the mountains, or took their own and their children's lives, to escape from the cruelty of Spain. The successive names of the island — Hispaniola, San Domingo, Hayti — embody its miserable history. The generous and gentle designs of Queen Isabella gave way to a persecution worthy of the fierce St. Dominic, and when the Indians were dead, ' by sundry kinds of death,' the island was peopled with imported negroes, under whose govern- ment at last it fell. In the full Nineteenth Century, the gold-laced officials of the Black Republic have been known to retire by night to the mountains, to celebrate their magic rites, attended by human sacrifice. Presages and omens of this tragedy are to be found even in the Letters of Columbus. There are oft-repeated The search mentions of gold. 'You will say to their Highnesses,' ^°^ ^ he writes to Antonio de Torres, * that I should have ardently desired to send them a larger quantity of gold, . . . but that the greater part of the people we employed fell suddenly ill.' Again, — ' I think it will be impossible to go this year to make discoveries until arrangements have been made to work the two rivers, in which the gold has been found, in the most profit- able manner for their Highnesses' interest.' Again, — * We hope, with the aid of God and with the washers Providence that we have here with us, when they shall be restored ^. ushers to health, to send a good quantity of gold by the first caravels that shall leave for Spain.' And later, — * Though we have not sent home ships laden with gold, we have, nevertheless, sent satisfactory samples, both of gold and of other valuable commodities, by which it may be judged that in a short time large profit may be XII 17 E THE ENGLISH VOYAGES derived/ The pressure put on him to get gold, no matter how, was unremitting. 'With respect to the gold,* he writes again, ' which belongs to Quibian, the cacique of Veragua, and other chiefs in the neigh- bouring country, although it appears by the accounts we have received of it to be very abundant, I do not think it would be well or desirable, on the part of your High- nesses, to take possession of it in the way of plunder : by fair dealing, scandal and disrepute will be avoided, and all the gold will thus reach your Highnesses' treasury without the loss of a grain/ In the same letter, written in 1503, he complains of the class of adventurers whom gold allures, and who make the voyage only for plunder. Yet Columbus, though he was disgusted by the self- interest and narrow outlook of these gold-seekers, did not fail to appreciate the significance and importance of The import- a Store of gold. ' Gold,' he says, ' is the most precious anceofgo . ^f ^j] commodities; gold constitutes treasure, and he who possesses it has all he needs in this world, as also the means of rescuing souls from purgatory, and restoring them to the enjoyment of paradise.' His opinion, so far as it concerns this world, was to be echoed later by many a patriotic Englishman who urged that the strength of the King of Spain lay in his treasure, and that he could be most effectively attacked in the New World. The complex So, as the drama proceeds, the plot thickens. He ^l^Vo^alet ^^^ would make an epic of it must follow a single strand of the twisted yarn. But this is work for the poet rather than the historian. The late Mr. Froude, with a poet's instinct for unity, chose to regard the whole story of the English Voyages as an aspect of the Protestant Reformation. Many other equally promising aspects 18 THE VOYAGERS invite a similar treatment. The fascination and the power of gold ; the doom of the races of America, met by them with a tragic simplicity ; the pathos of Christian missions ; the romance of map-making ; or the tardy growth, when all else had failed, of the idea of coloni- sation ; these and many other things may be severally disentangled from the complicated web of history, and trusted as a clue. History, which takes for its hero that The drama of many-sided creature, man, must reckon with all of these, ^^^^^^y- and exhibit a stage where pirates, buccaneers, and slave- traders rub shoulders with saints and seers, where martyrs to science and religion are associated with politicians and misers ; and where, to complete the disorder, most of the actors play many parts. It is permissible, at least, to simplify the problem by concentrating attention on the fortunes of a single nation. The history of the English Voyages is the most important chapter in the history of the English nation, and the preface to the history of the British Empire. During the half-century after the voyage of John Cabot, a period more than covered by the long life of his son, Sebastian Cabot, English exploration made but little progress. There were sundry expeditions, fitted out at Bristol, to the New-found-land, and some worthless commodities, as well as three natives of the island, were brought back and displayed to King Henry VII. The first of these voyages was undertaken by Sebastian Cabot, The after the death of his father, in 1498; he failed to ^fp^^ff 9f penetrate the North, and coasted America southward to voyaging to Florida. But this southern tendency, which might bring ^^^ ^^^*' England into conflict with Spain, was not encouraged by the King; and when Henry VIII succeeded to the 19 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES throne, Sebastian Cabot was relegated to the safer employ of making charts of the coast of France. In 15 12 he went to Spain, and for the next thirty-six years, with one brief interval after the death of Ferdinand, he was in the service of the Spanish government. On the accession of Edward VI he returned to England, at a time when a fresh impulse was given to English naviga- tion. But in the meantime the dominion of the New The progress World had been strengthened in foreign hands. While ^ ^^^^' Mexico and Peru were being added to the dominion of Spain, the voyages made by the English, under King Henry VIII, were few and profitless. In 1 5 1 7 Sir Thomas Pert, assisted by Cabot, attempted the North West passage, without success. In 1527 a nameless canon of St. Paul's in London, who was ' a great mathematician, and a man endowed with wealth,' fitted out two ships for Labrador, where one of them was lost. In 1536 Master Hore, a learned lawyer, took a company of a hundred to the same coast, whence, their stores being exhausted, they returned in a stolen French ship. It was to speak with the only surviving witness of this voyage, one Master Thomas Buts, that Hakluyt, at a much later date, travelled two hundred miles on horseback. But the most important document of this early period is ' the Book made by the right worshipful Master Robert Thome's Thorne,' in the year 1527, where the true policy of ^^^^f^^^^ England is outlined and discussed at length. Thorne, the Northern ^ . r - ^ ^ r • ^ r r-1 passage. who was a native of Bristol and a friend of the Cabots, dwelt long in Seville, and his writings show traces of the later sententious courtly style which Guevara brought to perfection. In 1513 he exhorted King Henry to take the business of discovery in hand; fourteen years 20 THE VOYAGERS later, at the request of the English ambassador, he expounded his ideas at length. The world, he says, has been divided between the Kings of Spain and of Portugal, and he gives an account of the contested ownership of the Philippines, which he takes to be the richest prize of all. For ' the preciousness of these things is measured after the distance that is between us and the things that we have appetite unto ' ; moreover, the inhabitants of these spice islands ' set more by a knife and a nail of iron than by his quantity of gold.' But the way to these islands is barred to us. The The zvay to Spaniards hold the westward route, by the Straits of ^^^ ^^'^^ Magellan ; the Portuguese the eastward, by the Cape of Good Hope. The English have left to them but one way to discover, and that is by the North. If the seas toward the North be navigable, we may go to these spice islands a shorter way by two thousand leagues than Spain and Portugal, who have each of them more than four thousand leagues to traverse. 'And,* says Master Thorne, anticipating an objection which, forty years later, became a burning question of practical politics, ' though we went not to the said islands, for that they are the Emperor's, or King's of Portingale, we should by the way, and coming once to the line equinoctial, find lands no less rich of gold and spicery, as all other lands are under the said line equinoctial ; and also should, if we may pass under the North, enjoy the navigation of all Tartary, which should be no less profitable to our commodities of cloth, than these spiceries to the Emperor and King of Portingale.' But the Northern seas, it may be objected, are blocked with ice ; and the Northern perils of the lands are too cold for man to dwell in. To which T^orth. 21 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES objection Master Thorne replies in a single sentence, fit to be inscribed as a head-line on the charter of Britannia — There is no land unhabitable^ nor sea innavigable. It was in this belief, and in this heroic temper, that England set herself to take possession of her heritage, the North. The adventures to the North West had been but poorly rewarded ; and for a time attention was turned to the possibility of reaching Cathay by way of The North the North East. At the close of the reign of Edward East Voyages, yj ^ Company of Merchant Adventurers was formed ' for the discovery of Regions, Dominions, Islands, and places unknown ' ; Sebastian Cabot, now in advanced old age, was made its governor; and in May, 1553, three ships, under the leadership of Sir Hugh Willoughby and Richard Chancelor, were despatched for the Northern coasts of Asia. They carried with them letters from King Edward VI, written in Latin, and opportunely addressed ' to all Kings, Princes, Rulers, Judges, and Governors of the Earth, and all other having any excellent dignity on the same, in all places under the universal heaven.' Willoughby and Chancelor were separated by a storm, and Willoughby, after reaching Nova Zembla, put back and landed with his two ships' companies on the coast of Lapland. Here they wintered, and here they all Richard died of cold and hunger. Chancelor, with his single Chancelor. ^^^^^ j^^j better fortune. He too was obliged to turn back, but he established friendly relations with the fisher folk in the neighbourhood of the White Sea, and, when news of the visit of strangers reached the Emperor of Russia, he was invited with all his com- pany to the Court at Moscow. His account of the 22 THE VOYAGERS Kingdom of Muscovy led the Merchant Adventurers to concentrate their efforts on developing trade with Trade with Russia, and gave a motive to further voyaging. Chan- celor himself was cast away and drowned on the coast of Scotland in 1556, as he was bringing the first Russian ambassador to the Court of England, but his work went on. Stephen Burrough, who had served under him, in the same year explored the coast of Nova Zembla; and Anthony Jenkinson, in 1558, went as far as Bokhara to seek for an overland route to Cathay. The last of the North Eastern voyages was undertaken by Arthur Pet and Charles Jackman in the year 1580. They sailed as far as the Sea of Kara, but the ice and fogs were too much for them ; Jackman never reached home, and the failure of the expedition cast grave doubts on the possibility of reaching Cathay by the North East. By this time, moreover, Frobisher's voyages to the North West had awakened hopes of gold to be found in that inhospitable region ; and Hawkins and Drake, by their exploits in the Spanish Indies, had begun a new era in English navigation, and given a new direction to English policy. In the excitement of these later developments the North East passage was forgotten. When the North West attempt, after a lapse of many years, was again taken up, it led to far-reaching conse- quences. The only incidental gain of the North Eastern voyages was the establishment of trading relations with Russia. There was no word of treasure to be found on the frozen Siberian coast, no prospect of settlement there, and the voyagers came into conflict with no rival nations. The search for gold, the beginnings of colonisa- 23 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES tion, and the gradual entanglement of England in a death-struggle with Spain are developments intimately The North connected with the voyages to the North West. Many West Foy ages. r ^i ■^ ^ or the seamen, ^ Feared by their breed and famous by their birth/ who were to be the terror of the Spaniards upon the high seas, had their hard training in this forlorn hope. When England found herself baffled in her efforts to escape from her ring-fence by way of the North, she struck Southwards ; timidly at first, then, surprised and elated by her own success, with ever increasing vigour, until, after a few years, the small barks that cruised to Greenland and Labrador gave way to armed fleets, prepared to assert a right of way and a right of conquest in all the seven seas. The suddenness and rapidity of this development might well surprise the world. The English naval power, like the English drama, seemed to be the growth of a single night. In either case, hidden causes had been at work ; the power that startled Europe had long been nurtured in the quiet. Yet these causes are so obscure, and seem so inadequate, that it is difficult to put off the language of miracle. Fuller frankly invokes a special Providence. ' Observe, by the way,' he says, in narrating the death of Captain Edward Fenton, in Queen 1603, some days after Queen Elizabeth's, 'how God Elizabeths ^^^ ^p ^ generation of military men, both by sea and land, which began and expired with the reign of Queen Elizabeth, like a suit of clothes made for her, and worn out with her; for Providence designing a peace- able prince to succeed her (in whose time martial men would be rendered useless), so ordered the matter, that 24 men THE VOYAGERS they all almost attended their mistress before or after, within some short distance, unto her grave.* However this may be, no language is extravagant to praise the deeds of the greatest generation of Englishmen, the generation of Drake and Raleigh, of Bacon and Hooker, of Shakespeare and Marlowe. If the names of Queen Elizabeth's men, the men born in the early part of her reign, or just before it, were struck off the roll of fame, England would be robbed of half her glory. It was one of the eldest-born of these, Humphrey SirHumphrey Gilbert, the son of a Devon gentleman, who revived the North West project. He had been trained, during the years of peace, in that school of war, government, and adventure which gave Elizabeth the best of her servants. Under Sir Henry Sidney, in Ireland, he had spent years of warfare with the rebels, and for his achievements there was knighted. Thence he had passed to the Low Countries, where he headed a band of volunteers to give help to the people of the Netherlands in their struggle with Alva and the power of Spain. In these The School for rough experiences of Continental war and Irish govern- ^'^^^^i^^^- ment Raleigh also was trained, and Grenville ; while Hawkins and Frobisher were learning their elements in trade and piracy on the coast of Guinea. With all its evil lessons of cruelty and craft, it was a school that fostered reckless courage and self-confidence in its pupils, and gave leaders to all kinds of perilous adventure. During his periods of active service, Gilbert cherished, deep in his heart, the dream of Cathay. He plotted a North East passage with Jenkinson ; and, when that scheme was thwarted, bent his studies to the West. He repeatedly importuned Queen Elizabeth for assistance ; 25 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Gilberfs Dis- course on the North West passage. The cunning ignorance of Spain. and in a period of enforced idleness, about 1574, he wrote the Discourse to prove a Passage by the North-west to Cathaia and the East Indies ; which was published in 1576, and begat the voyages of Frobisher and Davis. Gilbert's argument is so full and reasonable, so fair in its treatment of objections, and so strong in its appeal to tradition and authority, that it is no wonder if many were convinced by it. America, he says, is an island, and was known by report to Plato and the ancients, who called it Atlantis. If it be joined at its northern extremity with the continent of Asia, how comes it that no civilised man has ever found his way to America by land, and that the animals of America differ wholly from the animals of Asia.'' Need makes the old wife to trot, and the Scythians and Tartars would have found their way there, if any way had been by land. The current of the sea is known to run westward from the Cape of Good Hope, and on striking America is deflected along the coast to the North. If it found no outlet there, it would run eastward again to the coast of Europe, which it does not do ; therefore there is a fair and broad waterway from the Atlantic to the Pacific, somewhere between the 62 nd and the 72nd parallels of latitude. But if a passage had existed, it may be said, it would have been discovered long ago by the navigators of Spain and Portugal. This objection is met in triumphant fashion by Gilbert. It is against the interest of these nations that a passage should be found ; and he repeats a tale of Ulloa, that the King of Portugal gave the Emperor Charles V three hundred and fifty thousand crowns to leave the discovery un- attempted. 'It is to be thought,' he adds, 'that the King of Portugal would not have given to the Emperor 26 THE VOYAGERS such sums of money for eggs in moonshine/ The pilots of these nations are now forbidden, on pain of death, to explore to the North West, lest they ' should beat the bush, and other men catch the birds.' The enterprise is reserved for the English, who have most to gain by it. And Gilbert concludes with a declaration of the antique Gilbert's Roman faith which inspired his life — ' He is not worthy ^^^^ ' to live at all, that for fear or danger of death shunneth his Country's service and his own honour ; seeing death is inevitable, and the fame of virtue immortal.' The influence of Gilbert's Discourse was seen imme- ^^^ ^^^^^ diately in the voyages of Frobisher and Davis. After a ;^;^^f^^ vain attempt to stir up the Muscovy Company (as the Frobisher. Merchant Adventurers were now called) to Western enterprise, Queen Elizabeth granted, in 1575, a licence to Martin Frobisher ; the Court and the City stood in with the adventure, which was largely financed and controlled by Michael Lock, a London merchant of scientific tastes; and in 1576, with two small barks of twenty-five tons and a pinnace, Frobisher set sail. The pinnace was wrecked, and the barks separated, but Frobisher in the Gabriel reached Meta Incognita, or Cumberland's Island, made acquaintance with the Esquimaux, and partly explored the inlet to which he gave its optimistic name of Frobisher's Straits. The expedition was without substantial results in discovery or profit, and but for an accident, would hardly have been repeated. One of the company chanced to pick up and bring home a piece of shining black stone, which the assayers of London tested and pronounced to be rich in gold. So Frobisher was despatched again next year, his small fleet reinforced with a vessel of two hundred tons' burthen, lent by the 27 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Queen. The worthless stuff he brought home did not extinguish the hopes of the promoters, and in 1578 he put out once more, this time in command of no fewer than fourteen vessels. But his success was no greater than before. His explorations were hampered by the quest for gold ore, and the outcome of his three voyages was the discovery of Hudson*s Straits, much recrimination among the undertakers, and no gold. A fourth ex- pedition was planned, but when at last it was ready for sea, the command was given to Captain Fenton, and its purpose changed to piracy in the South Seas. The return of Drake in 1580, treasure-laden from his voyage round the world, had cast a pallor upon Northern enterprise. The three The three voyages of John Davis, in 1585 and the oyiges of ^^^ following years, were the last Elizabethan effort to discover the North West passage. It is a testimony to the geographical enthusiasm of the time that these voyages were undertaken in the very years when the Spanish invasion of England was imminent. Like Frobisher, Davis found a wealthy merchant patron and support in high quarters ; like Frobisher, he was crippled in his explorations by the necessities of gain. Some of his ships were told off for cod-fishing and the fur-trade, yet he explored Cumberland Sound, coasted the West of Greenland by Davis Straits, and reached Baffin's Bay. By the death of Sir Francis Walsingham in 1590 he lost his chief friend at Court, but his heart was still set on the North West, and he took service under Cavendish in the following year, induced only by the promise that he should have the loan of a vessel to search for the farther entrance to the passage, on the THE VOYAGERS back parts of America. Nor did he give up hope after the tragic failure of that voyage. In the preface to ^^^^^W The Seaman's Secrets^ his nautical handbook of 1594, and North West still more earnestly and fully in The Worldes Hydrographical P^^^g^- Description of 1595, he expounds the certainty of a North West passage, and the gains that its discovery would bring to England. Davis was a single-minded seaman, whose life was given to trade and exploration while others fought with Spain ; and the great idea that dominated him sometimes kindles his language to an almost poetic fervour. The North Pole, he says, is the y^^^ dignity of place of greatest dignity in the world ; and the people the North who dwell near it ' have a wonderful excellency, and an exceeding prerogative above all nations of the earth.' * How blessed may we think this nation to be : for they are in perpetual light, and never know what darkness meaneth, by the benefit of twilight and full moons, as the learned in astronomy do very well know : which people, if they have the notice of their eternity by the comfortable light of the Gospel, then are they blessed and of all nations most blessed. Why then do we neglect the search of this excellent discovery, against which there can be nothing said to hinder the same? Why do we refuse to see the dignity of God's creation, since it hath pleased his divine Majesty to place us the nearest neighbour thereunto.^ I know there is no true Englishman that can in conscience refuse to be a con- tributor to procure this so great a happiness to his country, whereby not only the Prince and mighty men of the land shall be highly renowned, but also the merchant, tradesman, and artificer mightily enriched.' His eloquence was in vain : and his later years were 29 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES spent as pilot on the East India route, in the service at first of the Dutch and afterwards of the East India Death of Company. He was killed in 1605 by the treachery of Japanese pirates, to whom the Master of his ship, the T'tger^ had offered hospitality and courtesy while the two vessels lay alongside in the Straits of Malacca. The North Western enterprise which had been the dream of his life passed into the hands of the Dutch, who were beginning also, before the century closed, to supplant the English in the trade with Russia. The stalwart honesty and simplicity of the character and writings of Davis give a singular charm to his name and story. He was a man after Hakluyt^s own heart, a fearless explorer, a trusted leader, an ardent student and professor of the science of navigation. He yields to none in esteem and zeal for his pro- The praise of fession. ' Sith Navigation,' he says, 'is the mean whereby countries are discovered, and community drawn between nation and nation, the word of God published to the blessed recovery of the foreign off- casts from whence it hath pleased his divine Majesty as yet to detain the brightness of his glory : and that by Navigation common-weals through mutual trade are not only sustained, but mightily enriched; with how great esteem ought the painful Seaman to be embraced, by whose hard adventures such excellent benefits are achieved, for by his exceeding great hazards the form of the Earth, the quantities of countries, the diversity of nations, and the natures of Zones, Climates, Countries, and people, are apparently made known to us; besides the great benefits mutually interchanged between nations of such fruits, commodi- 30 THE VOYAGERS ties, and artificial practices wherewith God hath blessed each particular country, coast and nation according to the nature and situation of the place.' Moreover, Davis, almost alone among the English navigators of his time, believed sincerely in the mission of England The Christian to take the Gospel to the heathen. He was a student ^^^zland of the Bible, and quotes the prophecies of Isaiah concerning the salvation and union of the Gentiles. ' Then sith it is so appointed,' he goes on, ' that there shall be one shepherd and one flock, what hindereth us of England (being by God's mercy for the same purpose at this present most aptly prepared) not to attempt that which God himself hath appointed to be performed } There is no doubt but that we of England are this saved people, by the eternal and infallible presence of the Lord predestinated to be sent pgopi^^ unto these Gentiles in the sea, to those Isles and famous Kingdoms, there to preach the peace of the Lord : for are not we only set upon Mount Zion to give light to all the rest of the world .^^ Have not we the true handmaid of the Lord to rule us unto whom the eternal majesty of God hath revealed his truth and supreme power of Excellency } By whom then shall the truth be preached, but by them unto whom the truth shall be revealed } It is only we, there- fore, that must be these shining messengers of the Lord, and none but we ; for, as the prophet saith, " O how beautiful are the feet of the messenger that bringeth the message from the mountain, that pro- claimeth peace, that bringeth the good tidings and preacheth health, and saith to Zion, Thy God is King.'' So that hereby the spiritual benefit arising from this 31 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES discovery/ he concludes, returning to his fixed idea, * is most apparent ; for which, if there were no other cause, we are all bound to labour with purse and mind, for the discovery of this notable passage.' During the reign of Elizabeth, and for many years The after, this scheme for the evangelisation of the heathen evangeUcal j^^j ^^ history. It was a stock weapon in the argu- mentative armoury or determmed explorers, many or whom allude to the religious mission of England in cursory fashion, or plead for it like sharp Christian attorneys, with none of the fire and sincerity that shine in the eloquence of Davis. ^ Hakluyt, who had the same object at heart, writing in 1584, was troubled by his inability to answer the Papist adversary. 'The Papists,' he says, ' confirm themselves, and draw others to their side, showing that they are the true Catholic Church because they have been the only converters of many millions of infidels to Christianity. Yea, I myself have been demanded of them, how many infidels have been by us converted? Whereunto, albeit I alleged the example of the ministers which were sent from Geneva with Villegagnon into Brazil, and these that went with John Ribault into Florida, as also those of our nation that went with Frobisher, Sir Francis Drake, and Fenton ; yet in very deed I was not able to name any one infidel by them converted.'^ Hakluyt was indeed 1 The too familiar compound of avarice, self-righteousness, and hypocrisy may be tasted in Sir George Peckham's treatise of The Western Planting in vol. viii. of this edition of Hakluyt. 2 From A Discourse of. Western Plantings written by M. Richard Hakluyt, 1584. This valuable discourse was first printed, from the MS. in the possession of Sir Thomas Phillipps, by the Maine Historical Society in 1877. 32 Catholic Missions.

On these two pillars of the cause, Thwackum and Square, English evangelical effort was fain to rest for the time ; but it is to be hoped, says Hakluyt, that volunteers will soon be forthcoming. ' For those of the clergy which by reason of idleness here at home are now always coining of new opinions, having by this voyage to set themselves on work reducing the savages to the chief principles of our faith, will become less contentious, and be contented with the truth in religion already established by authority/ In a later part of the same Discourse Hakluyt throws a curious side-light on this question of religion. It is imperative, he says, that England should seek some new outlet for her trade, and some region where she may establish a monopoly : — 'the rather to avoid the wilful perjury of such of our English nation as trade to Spain and other of King Philip's dominions.' Before being admitted to The religion of trade at any Spanish port, the English are required ^^^ ^^'^^er. to make oath, on the sign of the Cross, that they adhere to the faith of the Catholic Church of Rome, and they and their companies must attend mass on Sundays and Holy d-ays. This they do ; and thus *the covetous merchant wilfully sendeth headlong XII 33 c Protestant Buccaneer. THE ENGLISH VOYAGES to hell from day to day the poor subjects of this realm. The merchant in England cometh here devoutly to the communion, and sendeth his son into Spain to hear Mass. These things are kept secret by the merchants ; and such as depend upon the trade of merchandise are loth to utter the same.' There was no English counterpart, then, or counter- blast, to the devoted work of Las Casas and the Spanish missionaries. But year by year, as English trade to the South increased, there was a growing hostility to Spain, and a growing disinclination to accept her mastery The of the New World. The merchant might feign sub- mission ; the buccaneers and sea-dogs avenged his disgrace by challenging and harrying the power they were soon to overthrow. And these men, though there was little of saintHness in their character, had a religion, and fought and suffered for it. It was a religion not wholly unlike that of the later Orange- man, a Protestant compound, made up of fervid patriotism, a varied assortment of hates, a rough code of morals, and an unshaken trust in the providence of God. To the heathen they brought not peace but a sword. To the Pope, whom they named with the Turk and the Devil, they wished destruction. For Queen and Country they would go anywhere and attempt anything. Their mission was quite unlike his 'that bringeth the message from the mountain'; they coveted the things of the Gentiles, and their purpose and methods are set forth, in imperial language, by Michael Drayton : — *A thousand Kingdoms will we seek from far, As many Nations waste with civil war; 34 THE VOYAGERS Where the dishevelled ghastly sea-nymph sings, Jk Our well-rigged ships shall stretch their swelling wings, *^ And drag their anchors through the sandy foam, About the world in every clime to roam ; And those unchristened countries call our own Where scarce the name of England hath been known.' The North East and North West voyages failed in their primary purpose ; and the men of peace gave place, in the end, to the men of war. But before the Queen and her Ministers recognised the necessity of an armed conflict with Spain, all pacific devices for the readjustment of the balance had been examined and patiently put to the test. One more series of these remains to be chronicled. The idea of colonisation, of Colonisation. appropriating some part of America as yet unsettled by the Spaniards, and there establishing a prosperous English community, whose imports and exports might benefit the mother country, received its first effective impulse from Sir Humphrey Gilbert. Already in 1555 Richard Eden had outlined this idea, in the preface to his translation of Peter Martyr's Decades. From Florida northward to Newfoundland, says Eden, Eden's there are lands * not yet known but only by the sea- ^^^^^ ^^^' coasts, neither inhabited by Christian men.' His sug- gestion that England should take possession of these was not likely to bear fruit while Mary reigned and Philip governed. In his notable Discourse of 1576 Gilbert pointed not obscurely in the same direction. There are ' divers very rich countries,' he says, ' both civil and others, . . . where there is to be found great abundance of gold, silver, precious stones, cloth of gold, silks, all manner of spices, grocery wares, and other kinds of merchandise of an inestimable price, which 35 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Transporta- tion. Gilbert's Charter. both the Spaniard and Portugal, through the length of their journeys, cannot well attain unto.' What was to be the weakness of all early English attempts at coloni- sation is foreshadowed in his further suggestion that 'we might inhabit some part of those countries, and settle there such needy people of our country, which now trouble the commonwealth, and through want here at home are forced to commit outrageous offences, whereby they are daily consumed with the gallows.' And this scheme might be carried out, he adds, ' without injury done to any Christian prince, by crossing them in any of their used trades, whereby they might take any just occasion of offence.' Hakluyt, writing in 1584, makes the same recommendation and supports it by the same arguments, which no doubt were intended to appeal to the Queen's well-known resolve to maintain peace. Portugal and Spain, he says, have found em- ployment for all their subjects, so that these two nations breed no pirates ; ' whereas we and the French are most infamous for our outrageous, common, and daily piracies.' By planting the coast of America, between 30 and 60 degrees of Northern latitude, we may provide for the unprofitable members of the common- wealth, and greatly advance English trade. Hakluyt was by profession a man of peace; but there is little doubt that Gilbert would have been glad to be let slip at the throat of Spain. In a paper of 1577, probably drafted by him, the Queen is advised to prepare a fleet of warships under pretence of a voyage of discovery, and to attack the Spaniards in their cherished West Indies. When in 1578 he suc- ceeded in obtaining a charter 'to inhabit and possess 36 THE VOYAGERS at his choice all remote and heathen lands not in the actual possession of any Christian prince/ the expedi- tion that he fitted out was, in point of fact, diverted from peaceful purposes. He got together a fleet of eleven ships, and enlisted the assistance of many- gentlemen adventurers, the most notable among them being his own step-brother, Walter Raleigh, who was weary of land-service, and desired to try his fortunes by sea. Feuds and divisions broke out at the begin- ning of the voyage ; four ships refused the expedition ; and Gilbert, intending an attack on the West Indies, fell across some Spanish vessels, and was beaten in fight. The second and more memorable adventure of His last 1583, in which he met his death, was of less ambitious ^-^^^ ' design. Five vessels were equipped; the Delight^ of 120 tons, in which Gilbert sailed as Admiral, the Bark Raleigh^ of 200 tons, with its owner as Vice-admiral, the Golden Hind and Swallow^ of 40 tons each, and the Squirrel^ of 10 tons. The purpose was to plant a colony on some convenient site near Newfoundland. The men proved disorderly and mutinous; Raleigh, Disasters. who never took kindly to a subordinate command, deserted the expedition for some reason unknown ; the Swallow was employed by its crew in piracy, and was ultimately sent back to England with the sick; and the Delight^ after the failure of a three weeks' experiment in colonisation at St. John's Harbour, struck on a rock, and was lost with its men and cargo of mineral. But these failures and disasters were destined to give Gilbert his undying fame. Starting for home with his two remaining ships, he chose to sail in the Squirrel^ which he had made much use of to explore the coast. 'I 37 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES will not/ he said, 'forsake my little company going homeward, with whom I have passed so many storms and perils/ They met foul weather and terrible seas, ' breaking short and high, pyramid- wise.' But Gilbert was undismayed. The last vivid scene has been stamped for ever on the memory of his countrymen by the J) ft f narrative of Edward Hayes. ' Monday, the ninth of Gilbert. September, in the afternoon, the frigate was near cast away, oppressed by waves, yet at that time recovered : and giving forth signs of joy,- the General, sitting abaft with a book in his hand, cried out unto us in the Hind^ so oft as we did approach within hearing, JVe are as near to Heaven by sea as by land' At twelve o'clock that night the Squirrel's lights suddenly dis- appeared, and she was seen no more. Gilbert's last speech is his sufficient memorial : perhaps it was ringing In Robert Burton's memory, when, writing of the remedies for discontent, he paraphrased Gilbert's great saying, and embroidered it after his own fashion. 'So it is. Fortune favours some to live at home to their further punishment; 'tis want of judgement. All places are distant from Heaven alike, the Sun shines haply as warm in one city as in another, and to a wise man there is no difference of climes : friends are everywhere to him that behaves himself well, and a prophet is not esteemed in his own country.' Gilbert, at least, is esteemed in his own country as the pioneer of North West discovery, and the first who set his hand to the building up of Greater Britain. Virginia. His work was taken up immediately by Raleigh. 'After a night of storm so ruinous,' the scene rises on a fair landscape and the innocent and gentle happiness 38 THE VOYAGERS of Arcadia. In the spring of the year after Gilbert's disaster, Raleigh despatched two small ships, under Philip Amadas and Arthur Barlow, to prospect the coast of America, from Florida northwards, with a view to a permanent colony. They had a prosperous voyage by way of the Canary Islands, and reached the continent in the latitude of North Carolina. Here they landed on the islands of Wocoken and Roanoak, taking pos- session of the land in the Queen's name and establishing relations of the most friendly kind with the natives. Their description of the country, fertile and luxuriant to the water's edge, and of their joyous reception by the Indians, makes the dreams of pastoral poets seem true. 'We found the people,' they report, ' most gentle, loving, The people of and faithful, void of all guile and treason, and such as live ^^.^ after the manner of the Golden Age.' The King, or chief, being absent, his brother, with a retinue, received the visitors, and showed them every possible courtesy. * When we came to the shore to him,' says Captain Barlow, ' with our weapons, he never moved from his place, nor any of the other four, nor never mistrusted any harm to be offered from us ; but, sitting still, he beckoned us to come and sit by him, which we per- formed ; and, being set, he made all signs of joy and welcome, striking on his head and his breast and after- wards on ours, to shew we were all one, smiling and making shew the best he could of love and familiarity.' * He was very just of his promise ' ; the narrator goes on, ' for many times we delivered him merchandise upon his word, but ever he came within the day and performed his promise.' He loaded the voyagers with gifts ; and his wife, who was equally hospitable, tended them in 39 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Indian h^^" house. 'While we were at meat there came in at the courtesy, gates two or three men with their bows and arrows from hunting, whom when we espied, we began to look one towards another, and offered to reach our weapons : but as soon as she espied our mistrust, she was very- much moved, and caused some of her men to run out, and take away their bows and arrows and break them, and withal beat the poor fellows out of the gate again. When we departed in the evening and would not tarry all night, she was very sorry, and gave us into our boat our supper half-dressed, pots and all, and brought us to our boat side, in which we lay all night, removing the same a pretty distance from the shore. She perceiving our jealousy was much grieved, and sent divers men and thirty women to sit all night on the bank-side by us, and sent us into our boats fine mats to cover us from the rain, using very many words to intreat us to rest in their houses. But because we were few men, and if we had miscarried the voyage had been in very great danger, we durst not adventure anything, although there was no cause of doubt ; for a more kind and loving people there cannot be found in the world, as far as we have hitherto had trial.' Who does not recognise, in this description of native humanity and delicate courtesy, the beginning of an oft- repeated drama, played to its bitter end in Hispaniola, in North America, and in many an island of the South Seas ? The first The report of the captains pleased Queen Elizabeth, who attempt to gtood god-mother to the new colony, naming it Virginia ; Virginia, and in 1585 Raleigh furnished a fleet of seven ships to go and take effective possession. There was some ques- tion of entrusting the command of the venture to Sir 40 THE VOYAGERS Philip Sidney, who longed to escape from the fetters of the Court ; but the Queen would not relax her hold, and the choice fell on Sir Richard Grenville, Raleigh's cousin, as Admiral, with Ralph Lane as Governor of the colony. Had Sidney gone, it is possible that the whole course of the history of Virginia and of North America might have been changed. But Sidney was to die, a year later, at Zutphen, and that ever-memorable and heroic fire-eater, Sir Richard Grenville, was to work his will on the people Grenville and ' . , . Lane, of the Golden Age. He spent the summer m explormg the islands, dragooning the natives, and burning their crops and houses ; on his way home with the fleet he fought and captured a rich Spanish ship. His right work was fighting, not civilising. Lane, who was left in charge, spent his time in gold-seeking and organising forced labour among the Indians. Before a year was out they were in open rebellion, and the business of massacre began. Thenceforward no help was to be had in sowing corn and catching fish ; and the colonists rejoiced when Drake, on his way back from his famous West Indian exploits, lent them ships to go home in. A fortnight after their departure. Sir Richard Grenville turned up with three ships, and put fifteen men in possession, who were never seen again. Raleigh's last attempt was made in 1587, with a hundred and fifty colonists, under Captain John White. White himself returned to England the F^^'^re of the same summer, and in the turmoil that followed was unable to send ships to the relief of his colonists until 1590, when none of them could be found. A few were naturalised among the Indians, and when Virginia was at last planted, nearly twenty years later, seven English were found alive. ' It is the sinfullest thing in the world,* 41 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES says Bacon, ' to forsake or destitute a plantation once in forwardness : for besides the dishonour, it is the guiltiness of blood of many commiserable persons.' Perhaps he is glancing at Sir Walter Raleigh, to whom, it cannot be denied, some part of this guiltiness attaches. Raleigh was always impatient of the day of small things, and when his colony languished, made over his patent to a company of merchants, and turned his attention to El Dorado, the latest comer in the gorgeous pageant of his dreams of world-empire. The miscarriage of the Virginian attempt is the least magnificent of the failures that make up the story of his life. The long So the voices that had counselled discovery and peaceful ^^^^' settlement were silenced, or were caught up and went to swell the clamour of war. For its first thirty years the reign of Elizabeth was, in effect, one long preparation for the great day. It is a time singularly barren, in the English annals at least, of notable political events. Events were what the Queen and her cautious Ministers, Burghley and Walsingham, most dreaded. Their business was to hold on to the reins of power, to retard natural developments, to refuse action, to disclaim responsibility, to chasten the impulses of fervid patriots, and to avoid the open hostility of rival powers. The Government sat still, and deprecated all vigorous intentions, and waited. The Queen's fixed policy, her single resource for many long years, was to continue saying 'Peace, Peace,' when there was no peace. Her subjects were not slow to grasp The price of ^^ situation. They were free to serve the Crown, patriotism, but it must be at their own risk. They might give battle to the enemy of their country and their religion, but they must fight in the character of pirates. If they 42 THE VOYAGERS won, the Crown would gladly accept a share in the spoil ; if they lost, they knew what doom to expect. It is surely a high tribute to Elizabeth, and to the trust and love she inspired in her subjects, that they accepted these conditions without a murmur. They knew that the Queen had no care but the country, and that her courage was without blemish. They were content to let her work in her own way, so they might work in theirs. A Prince, in the high political doctrine of Tudor Tudor England, has no friends, only servants ; and owes no sovereignty. gratitude, only acceptance or approval. When this doctrine was inherited, along with other great things, by Stuart pedantry from Tudor state-craft, it made clumsy havoc of the happiness of a people, and tumbled the Crown in the mire. But the hands that fashioned it knew how to wield it for the safety and glory of the nation. Towards the close of her reign, when Elizabeth was able at last to speak with kings in the gate, she spoke with the voice of England. The meaning and interest of English history, therefore, ^-^f during this long period of incubation, is to be found not in the doings of the Government, but in the un- authorised activities of the people. The political history of a country is commonly an affair of great dignity ; it deals with the legitimate acts of the rightful government. But the great deeds of Elizabeth's reign were most of them unlawfully begotten, an,d were legitimated when they came of age. The volunteer efforts of the nation gathered yearly in strength and volume ; at last the Queen threw off her mask of indifference, and accepted the command. Until the time was ripe, she held sedulously aloof. The body politic was full of life, 43 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES but the brain was careful not to know what the hands were doing. It is not what Burghley and Walsingham were writing, but what Shakespeare and Jonson were saying, that makes the greatness of the reign ; not what the Treasurer of the Navy was commanded to do, but what Drake and Hawkins did without waiting for the Royal command. The public acts of the regularly constituted Government were tame and few. But the Queen knew what was going forward. The Catholic power of Spain, overshadowing and threatening Europe, was never out of her mind. She is sometimes accused, on plausible evidence, of neglecting her Navy. ' In February 1559/ says an excellent recent historian, 'she possessed twenty-two effective ships of a hundred tons and upwards; in March 1603, twenty-nine; practically, therefore, she did little more than replace those worn out by efflux of time, for only two were lost in warfare.' ^ But, as the same writer justly points out, there was great plenty of pirates, — some four hundred were known in 1563, — and, by a merciful dispensation of Providence, they did far more harm to foreign commerce than to English. Twenty-nine ships is not a large navy; but when the Armada came, a hundred and thirty vessels were waiting for it in the narrow seas. The history of the Royal Navy under Queen Elizabeth is as little adequate to express the growth of national sea-power as is the history of the Royal Academy under Queen Victoria to express the progress of the nation in the Fine Arts. The Policy of The main policy of the Queen was, at any cost, to prevent disunion among her subjects, and to win their 1 M. Oppenheim, The Adminhtradon of the Royal Navy l^og-1660. (1896).

Her streng^th at sea depended on the loyalty of the irre- . , 111 .-11 1- 1 j-j r 11 ^^ttonal gulars; she kept in with the police, and did not tall jjnity. out with the thieves. A wonderful good understanding prevailed between the two parties. When Drake came back in 1580, laden with pillage, from his voyage of circumnavigation, he was nicknamed by the people ' The Master Thief of the Unknown World.' His old friend and chief, John Hawkins, was then the official head of the Navy. ' The Queen,' says Stow, ' not yet persuaded to accept and approve his unknown purchase, paused a while, and heard every opinion, which at that time were many.' In the end she went aboard his ship at Deptford, and knighted him. By this act, with full knowledge of what she was doing, she cast the die. Everywhere her over-ruling hand was felt. If Burghley, and others of her statesmen, had had their way, she would have broken with France. ' For my own part,' wrote Lord Howard of Effingham, in the very year of the Armada, ' I have made of the French King, the Scottish King, and the King of Spain, a Trinity that I mean never to be saved by, and I would others were of my opinion.' The Queen was not of his c,, TT -^ • • i. -i. T^ Attitude to opinion. She was a Unitarian in her enmity. It was ^^^^^^ a saying of hers ' Whensoever the last day of the Kingdom of France cometh, it will undoubtedly be the eve of the destruction of England.' The division of France would have meant an accession of strength to Spain. The French pirates and Huguenots had shewn Englishmen the way to trouble Spain upon the seas ; and Elizabeth approved their work. But the King of 45 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES France, if he had lost control of his realm, would have been driven into the arms of Spain ; and Elizabeth lent him her support. She isolated her enemy, and she united her people. She understood a free nation, and was worthy of the seamen who served her.

By the institution of the Navy Board, in 1546, Henry VIII had created the means of organisation. The practice of piracy made for the efficiency of the units. Long before an armed conflict seemed probable, English ships and English seamen were, as Mr. Corbett has shown, far superior in warlike qualities to those of Spain. The ships were smaller, better designed, quicker in handling ; and they could sail nearer to the wind. The prime importance of gunnery had been learned by the English, and was to be taught by them to Spain. ' For the new school,* says Mr. Corbett, ' the arm of the sailor was his ship. Hitherto the offensive force of a war-vessel had been measured mainly by the number of boarders it could throw upon the deck of an enemy, and guns had been valued chiefly as a means of crippling his power of The ship as a eluding this form of attack.

THE VOYAGERS were wafted lazily to and from the Indies, unprotected save by a few inferior guns. It was the enterprise of the French pirates which first awakened them to a sense of danger, and caused them to take precautions. The gal- leons of the Indian Guard, a squadron of twelve for the protection of trade, were sent out to the Indies for the first time in 1568, the very year that Hawkins first brought the Spaniards acquainted with English gunnery in the affair of San Juan de Ulloa. Sir John Hawkins, who more than any other single man, was responsible for the rise of the war-spirit, came of a line of seamen. His grandfather had served in King Henry VIIFs Navy. His father, William Hawkins, had been the first, in 1530, to carry on trade with Brazil. The voyage to Brazil was subsequently frequented, about 1540, by several wealthy merchants of Southampton. English traders were active enough during the early part of the century; it was John Hawkins who first taught them how arms might signally help the expansion of trade. He served his apprenticeship in the usual voyages Hts trading TTT A r • J • ^ 1 1 J Foyages to the to the West African coast, and m 1562 launched on a West Indies. bolder scheme. By this time negroes were in great demand at Hispaniola, and Hawkins was determined to supply them. With the help of some city merchants, he equipped three vessels, and sailed to Sierra Leone, where, by force and purchase, he obtained three hundred negroes ; then, with the help of a Spanish pilot, he crossed the Atlantic, and obtained ' reasonable utterance of his living commodities ' in the ports of Hispaniola. He gained in exchange an enormous quantity of valuable merchandise ; some of it he took home with him, some he sent to be disposed of at Cadiz, where it was seized and confiscated. 47 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Orders were at once despatched to the Indies that no English vessel should be allowed to trade there. Hawkins intended to trade there. In 1564 he equipped a fleet of five ships, among them the Jesus of Lubecky a ship of the Royal Navy, lent him by the Queen. He collected his negroes and proceeded with them, this time, to the ports of the Spanish Main. Negro slaves were much coveted ; and by a mixture of persuasion and armed force he succeeded in disposing of them all. He brought back to England a handsome profit for those who had financed his expedition. The of air of Y{\s third voyage, begun in 1567, is a date in English Ulioa. history. It brought him into open conflict with the Spanish galleons ; it proved the weakness of the Spanish power ; it settled him in his life-long enmity to Spain ; and it baptised with fire the greatest fighting sailor of the age, Francis Drake. The father of Francis was Edmund Drake, a Protestant seaman, who, after performing a chaplain's duties in Edward VTs Navy, took orders and was given a Vicarage under Elizabeth. He had twelve sons ; ' and as it pleased God to give most of them a living on the water, so the greatest part of them died at sea.' The eldest and most famous of them had been conversant with the sea from boyhood, and when his Hawkins and cousin, John Hawkins, was preparing this third expedi- Drake. tion, he was entrusted, at the age of twenty-two, with the command of the Judith^ a bark of fifty tons. The Queen contributed two great ships, and did her best to allay the suspicions of the Spanish ambassador. Hawkins had more trouble than formerly in laying hands on his negroes, and much more trouble in disposing of them. The West Indian ports were warned and closed against 48 THE VOYAGERS him. At Rio de la Hacha Drake seized a Spanish despatch-boat ; Hawkins took the town by assault, and held it while he disposed of his negroes to purchasers who came in secretly by night. Carthagena was bom- barded ; and trade was forced on many a lesser place. Thus, 'making their traffic with the Spaniards as they might/ Hawkins and Drake found that the season of hurricanes was near at hand. Lacking other shelter, they resolved to take refuge in the chief port of Mexico, San Juan de Ulloa. Hawkins, it is true, held that by ancient treaty and Elizabethan the law of nations the English had a right to trade -^'^^ ^''^^^''^• in the Spanish dominions. But the purpose of his expedition had been laboriously concealed from the Spanish ambassador, and it had assumed a piratical com- plexion even on the coast of Africa, where several Portuguese slave-ships were seized and plundered. There is all the more reason, therefore, to admire the cool assurance of the English captains. They sailed into the harbour of San Juan de Ulloa, and anchored inside the island which protected the roadstead. Over against them, on the landward side, was a Spanish treasure-fleet. How Hawkins would have dealt with this does not appear. How Drake would have dealt with it, had he been in command, is fairly certain. The question did not arise. On the morning after the arrival of Hawkins there appeared in the offing thirteen Spanish ships, escorting Don Martin Enriquez, the new Viceroy of Mexico. Hawkins had guns mounted on the island, and was well able to hold the harbour. But he feared the wrath of the Queen, and would not take the responsi- bility of unprovoked war. So, after mutual defiances, XII 49 D THE ENGLISH VOYAGES the English and the Spaniards treated. It was agreed that the two fleets should be amicably moored side by side ; the island to remain in possession of the English. Th treachery Xo the Spanish commanders Hawkins and his company Spaniard. were no better than corsairs, and a treacherous plot against them was put in action. While the crews were entertaining each other, the signal was given, the English ashore were murdered, the guns on the island seized, and the English vessels boarded. The Jesus of Lubeck was taken. Only by extraordinary promptitude and heroic valour were the Minion^ which was also a Queen's ship, and the Judith drawn clear of the entanglement, leaving the three other ships to their fate. A terrific action followed,, at close quarters, and the damage inflicted by the English gunners on the great ships of Spain was so severe, that when at last the two English vessels got out of the haven, they were not further molested, though for two days they took shelter close to the port. On the Sufferings of first day of their voyage home they were separated ; Hawkins, with two hundred men on board the Miniotty was unable to provide for so large a company, and agreed to the proposal of a hundred of them, who volunteered to be set on shore in the Bay of Mexico, to shift for themselves. The miseries and persecution that these men suff^ered at the hands of the Indians and the Inquisition were narrated, years later, by the few survivors, and fanned the flame of English hatred for Spain. When Drake and Hawkins reached home, with their tale of Spanish treachery, * military and sea- faring men,' says Camden, 'all over England fretted, and desired war with Spain. . . . But the Queen shut her ears against them.' 50 men. THE VOYAGERS The Queen was not ready to face the great Catholic Q,ueen coalition in open warfare. She was struggling in the ^^ifjic^ifig^ meshes of conspiracy. While Hawkins was selling his negroes in the Indies, Ridolfi was plotting in London; the Queen of Scots had arrived in England, to become a centre of disaffection ; Alva was inaugurating his reign of terror in the Netherlands ; and the Guises were putting in operation their scheme for extirpating the Huguenots in France. The Queen did what she could. She detained the treasure destined for Alva, which, con- veyed in five ships from Spain, had been driven by French pirates into English ports; and she sent money and munitions of war to the Huguenots. This policy of hers gave a broad hint to her subjects. There was to be no war ; but short of war, acts of hostility and reprisal were the order of the day. When the efforts of the King of Spain and Pope Pius V to stir up rebellion against Elizabeth became known to the mari- time people of England, ' incredible it is,' says Camden again, 'with how great alacrity they put to sea, and how readily they exercised piracy against the Spaniards.' Hawkins was to take no further part, for the present, in these forays. He was needed for defence at home. But, as the Portuguese chronicler justly remarks, 'there was a certain Englishman, called Francis Drake.' At ^rancU San Juan de Ulloa Drake had learned his lesson. The Spaniards were never to be trusted ; extreme measures, such as Hawkins had shrunk from, were in the end the safest; a well-furnished English ship could go any- where in the Spanish seas. For the next twenty years he put the lesson into practice, waxing bolder and bolder by success. When precautions were taken against the 51 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES repetition of his exploits, he made precautions foolish by rising from height to height of daring, until the very wind of his name cleared the seas before him. His Exploits In 1570, the year after his return in the Judith^ Zlt^^''''"^ Drake was back on the coast of the Spanish Main, where he robbed divers barks of their merchandise. In the following year he cut out a Spanish ship of a hundred and eighty tons from the harbour of Cartha- gena. To provide himself with a convenient retreat, he established a base in the Gulf of Darien, a natural harbour, far from any Spanish settlement. Hither he came in 1572 with two ships, the larger only seventy tons, and with seventy-three men. He entered into friendly relations with the Maroons, or hill-tribes descended from escaped negroes, who shared his hatred of Spain. With his diminutive force he surprised the city of Nombre de Dios, and, if he had not been wounded, would probably have emptied its treasure- house. He planned the capture and sack of Carthagena itself; then, finding that watch was kept for him at all the Spanish ports, he changed his plans, and transferred The Peruvian his operations from sea to land. The yearly produce treasure. ^^ ^^^ mines of Peru was wont to be brought fifty miles overland by mule-trains from Panama to Nombre de Dios, and thence shipped to Spain. 'By the abun- dant treasure of that country,' wrote Sir Walter Raleigh, ' the Spanish King vexeth all the Princes of Europe, and is become in a few years from a poor King of Castile the greatest monarch of this part of the world.' It was Drake's purpose to surprise and capture the treasure as it crossed the isthmus. He made his first attempt on the Panama side with eighteen 52 THE VOYAGERS men, all that were available of his original company; but by an accident the mule-trains were alarmed and the attempt failed. Nothing disheartened, he joined hands with a Huguenot privateer and, aided by Maroon scouts, succeeded, near the very gates of Nombre de Dios, in waylaying and rifling the convoy. In order to fit out pinnaces for river-work he had dismantled his ships ; his homeward voyage was made in new Spanish frigates, of the latest design, captured by his pinnaces. During his abode in these parts he had dis- j year's organised the whole coasting trade of the Spanish doings. Main; he had taken the spoils of many vessels, had boldly entered more than one town, had diverted the steady flow of the Peruvian gold, and, as an earnest of what was yet to come, had seen the Pacific Ocean and vowed that with the help of God he would sail on that sea in an English ship. He arrived in Plymouth, after an absence of about fifteen months, in August, 1573. It is to be regretted that these early exploits of Hakluyt and Drake are barely recorded in Hakluyt's compilation, and rest on later authority,^ eked out with Spanish State papers. Hakluyt, who was willing enough to memorise deeds of war, shows a certain tenderness of conscience with regard to sheer piracy. He was bound, moreover, to pay heed to the possible international bearings of his publication. In his 1589 preface To the Favourable Reader he apologises for his omission of the Voyage of Circumnavigation, and explains it on the ground that a collection of Drake's voyages was being made by another hand. He '^ Sir Francis Drake Revived , . . by Philip Nichols, Preacher. (1626). 53 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES speaks somewhat slightingly of Drake's great voyage, and offers no excuse for omitting the raids on the Drays Spanish Main. Yet the greatness of Drake is perhaps achievements, best seen in these early buccaneerings. Time and again he is within an ace of irreparable failure; time and again his incredible quickness of resource uses the material of his broken plans for a new and startling success. His spirits are at their highest when things seem most hopeless. His decisions are taken and his blows delivered like lightning. He makes a fine art of surprise, and escapes from difficulties by the un- guarded way, the way of the impossible. A single purpose animates all his exploits, and the chart of his movements is like a cord laced and knotted round the throat of the Spanish monarchy. Withal he is an adept at dealing with men, French Protestants, English adventurers, Negro Maroons, or Spanish emissaries ; and carries himself in the pirate's profession with a courtesy, magnanimity, and unfailing humanity that give to his story the glamour of romance. Like Napoleon's Italian campaign, the achievements of Drake on the Spanish Main show a master at work, unbur- dened and unfettered as yet by responsibility and reputation, adapting himself solely to his material, and inventing at every stroke. The Voyage Drake's object was to drive England into war. The navigation, object of the Government was to keep a free hand. For some years he was hindered from further expedi- tions, and work was found for him in Ireland. But the Queen had a soft corner in her heart for him, and when the whirligig of time once more cast into the shade the hope of a peaceful understanding with Spain, she 54 THE VOYAGERS offered him secret encouragement. In the autumn of 1577 he started on the greatest of his voyages in the Pelican^ of a hundred tons, (afterwards re-named the Golden Hind)^ with the Elizabeth^ two lesser ships, and a pinnace, carrying among them a company of about a hundred and fifty men. His purpose, as he explained to the Queen, was to sail into the Pacific, and raid the Spanish possessions from the West. There was no word, at the outset, of sailing round the world. It is more likely that he intended to circumnavigate America, and to return by the North West passage, which, earlier in the same year, Frobisher had gone for the second time to seek. But whatever his plan, Drake was no longer the obscure buccaneer. He kept the state of a King; was served on silver plate stamped with his own arms, and was attended by musicians and painters. There dined with him at table nine or ten gentlemen of good family, who were in training for similar adventures, and he offered them delicacies, the gift of Queen Elizabeth. The presence of these gentlemen was a chief cause of Trouble with , . , , ^ the gentlemen trouble on the outward voyage. Ir we are to believe adventurers. one of them, there were fallings out and quarrels, and no one was certain whom to obey, because there were many who took upon them to be masters. The Elizabethan gentleman adventurer was the ruin of many an expedition on which he embarked ; he was full of courage and initiative, but headstrong, giddy, and in- subordinate. And this was not the worst. By the time the ships had made the coast of Brazil, taking on the way such booty as they fell across, Drake found cause to suspect that treason was at work, that an attempt was being made to induce some of the crew to mutiny and 55 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Thomas become pirates on their own account. His suspicions executed ^^ ^^ Thomas Doughty, a gentleman of good parts, whom he had met in Ireland, and to whom he had given a place of trust and honour in his enterprise. The rights and wrongs of this dark business are beyond our recovery. Drake believed, not without grounds, that Doughty had betrayed his plans to Burghley before starting, and was doing what in him lay to wreck the success of the voyage. Doughty, for his part, believed that Drake, being embarked on piracy, could claim no ultimate legal authority over his followers. At Port St. Julian, where Magellan, almost sixty years before, had hanged one of his captains. Doughty was tried by jury and condemned to death ; and Drake, after receiving the sacrament with the prisoner, and dining with him by way of farewell, executed the sentence with his own hand. The speech that he made, a few weeks thereafter, still glows, in the imperfect report which has come down to us, with the passion of that tragedy. When the men were assembled by command in a tent on shore, Master Fletcher, the chaplain, offered himself to make a sermon. * Nay, soft, Drake's Master Fletcher,' quoth he, ' I must preach this day myself, although I have small skill in preaching. Well, be all the company here, yea or not.''' Answer was made that they were all there. Then he commanded every ship's company to stand severally together, which was also done. Then he said, ' My masters, I am a very bad orator, for my bringing up hath not been in learning, but what so I shall here speak, let any man take notice of what I shall say, and let him write it down if he list, for I will speak nothing but I will answer it in England, yea, and before her Majesty, and I have it here already 56 THE VOYAGERS set down. Thus it is, my masters, that we are very far from our country and friends, we are compassed in on every side with our enemies, wherefore we are not to make small reckoning of a man, for we cannot have a man if we would give for him ten thousand pounds. Wherefore we must have these mutinies and discords that are grown amongst us redressed, for by the life of God it doth even take my wits from me to think of it ; here is such controversy between the sailors and the gentlemen, and such stomaching between the gentlemen and sailors, that it doth even make me mad to hear it. But, my ^-^^ right T , . ^ ^ '' doctrine of the masters, 1 must have it lert ; tor 1 must have the gentle- ^v^^y. man to hale and draw with the mariner, and the mariner with the gentleman. What, let us show ourselves all to be of a company, and let us not give occasion to the enemy to rejoice at our decay and overthrow. I would know him that would refuse to set his hand to a rope, — but I know there is not any such here ; and as gentlemen are very necessary for government's sake in the voyage so have I shipped them for that, and for some farther intent, and yet though I know sailors to be the most envious people of the world, and so unruly without government, yet may not I be without them. Also, if there be any here willing to return home, let me understand of them, and here is the Marigold^ a ship that I can very well spare ; I will furnish her to such as will return with the most credit I can give them, either by my letters or any way else ; but let them take heed that they go homeward, for if I find them in my way I will surely sink them ; therefore you shall have time to consider hereof until to-morrow ; for, by my troth, I must needs be plain with you, I have taken that in hand that I know not in the 57 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES world how to go through withal ; it passeth my capacity ; it hath even bereaved me of my wits to think on it.' None of the company was for returning. Then he asked them whether they had any claim against him for wages, or would trust to his good will. They declared they would trust to his good will. Then he formally discharged from their command all the captains of the ships. Two of them asked him what moved him so to displace them. He asked whether they could give any reason why he should not do so. The explanation that he added of the origin of his voyage The question is of the deepest interest. The Queen, he said, was a rr^^ltLl party to it ; and he showed a bill of a thousand crowns commission r J ' from the which she had given towards the expenses. Walsingham Queen. ^^^ -^^ ^^ secret ; but she had straitly commanded that the Lord Treasurer, Burghley, to whom Doughty had revealed the plan of the voyage, should have no know- ledge of it; and she had sworn by her crown that if any one in her realm should send word to the King of Spain, they should lose their heads. ' And now, my masters,' quoth he, 'let us consider what we have done. We have now set together by the ears three mighty princes, as first her Majesty, the Kings of Spain and Portugal, and if this voyage shall not have good success, we shall not only be a scorning, or a reproachful scoffing-stock, unto our enemies, but also a great blot to our whole country for ever; and what triumph will it be to Spain and Portugal : and never again the like will be attempted.' So, after restoring the captains to their command, and promising the men that he would pay their wages though he should have to sell his shirt, he concluded : ' For,' quoth he, ' I have good reason 58 THE VOYAGERS to promise, and am best able to perform it, for I have somewhat of mine own in England, and, besides that, I have as much adventure in this voyage as three of the best whatsoever; and if it so be that I never come home, yet will her Majesty pay every man his wages, whom indeed you and we all come to serve; and for to say you come to serve me, I will not give you thanks, for it is only her Majesty that you serve, and this voyage is only her setting forth.' ^ So, willing them all to be friends one with another, he sent them to their business. This speech deserves to be set out in full in any His bold story of the English Voyages. It is the speech of a ^^^^^* man not in love with speech, whose thoughts are wrung from him at a crisis ; it throws a vivid light on the situation, and on Drake's manner of dealing with it. The troubles with his men, and the treachery of Doughty, had brought him to a hard pass. He must either admit himself a baffled man, or must take the enormous risk of angering the Queen by declaring openly his full commission from her. It is highly unlikely that he had any such commission in writing. What he counted on rather was her approval, and support against the Lord Treasurer's party, if he should bring his voyage to a successful issue. According to his wont, he chose the bolder way ; and from this time forward the failure of his expedition would have rneant his doom, whether from England or from Spain. The dreaded Straits of Magellan were passed in Drake driven safety, and Drake was in the Pacific Ocean. Here ^ Narrative of John Cooke, in The World Encompassed (Hakluyt Society, 1854). 59 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES a terrific storm, or series of storms, fell upon the ships. The Marigold was overwhelmed and lost; and the Elizabeth^ separated from the Golden Hind^ waited for a time at the mouth of the Straits and then returned to England. The two other vessels had been broken up or cast off on the coast of Brazil. Drake's ship was left alone to finish the voyage. The storm brought him the discovery that Tierra del Fuego was not a continent, as had been supposed, but that Th I t f ^^^^^ w^^ open sea to the south of it. And now his the Pacific. reward was near. The Pacific had been treated by the Spaniards as if it were an inland lake; their route to it lay overland ; and the ships they sailed on it were built on its own shores. No enemy had as yet entered it by water; the ports were feebly guarded; and the crews of the merchant ships were very small. The Golden Hind was well-manned, and bristled with guns ; the Pacific fell a prey to her. Her voyage north- wards along the coast was a carnival of plunder, the richest prize of all being the Cacafuego^ a treasure-ship bound from Guayaquil to Panama. Drake's ship was now heavy with precious metals, and the only question was how to get her home. He sailed northward, almost to Vancouver's Island, but was deterred by the cold and fogs from proceeding further. Turning to the south again, along the coast of California, he put into a bay near San Francisco, repaired his ship, and was solemnly crowned by the Indians as their king. He named the district 'New Albion,' and nailed a sixpence to a great post, leaving it, with the Queen's name inscribed above it, for the Indians to worship. Then he struck across the Pacific, to the Philippines and 60 Drake crowned by the Indians. THE VOYAGERS Moluccas, where he entered into alliance, amity and traffic with the princes of those islands; and so back by the Cape of Good Hope. In September, 1580, after an absence of almost three years, the Golden Hind sailed into Plymouth Sound. Drake's first question, before he cast anchor, was whether the Queen was alive and well. The Queen was alive and well, and his anxieties His reception were soon ended. ' She received him graciously,' says ^ ^ k!«^^»- Camden, 'and laid up the treasure he brought by way of sequestration, that it might be forth-coming if the Spaniards should demand it.' She was by this time storing a good deal of treasure on trust for the Spaniard. Drake was allowed to retain a rich share of the booty for himself and his men. The thing that troubled him most, we are told, was 'that some of the chief men at Court refused to accept the gold which he offered them, as gotten by piracy. Nevertheless the common sort of people admired and highly commended him, as judging it no less honourable to have enlarged the bounds of the English name and glory than of their Empire.' The completion of Drake's voyage round the world The mid-point marks the mid-point of his career. For fourteen years ^{^^./^^/^ he had forced his policy on the government; and now he had gained his point. There was to be no further question, during his life-time, of conciliating the good graces of Spain. By the failure of the royal line of Portugal, King Philip had acquired, soon after Drake's return, a new vast empire, and had more than doubled his naval power. Drake was now a knight, and a trusted naval counsellor. For fourteen years more he was to 61 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES The Indies work in the open for the overthrow of Spain. The J ^^^^ ^ change is well seen in the equipment of his expedition of 1585. In place of the two or three small ships which had hitherto sufficed him, he sailed from Ply- mouth in command of twenty-one ships and eight pinnaces, with a force of more than two thousand men. Frobisher was Vice-Admiral, and their destination was the West Indies, there to waylay the Plate fleet laden with the wealth of Peru. After an armed demonstration off the harbours of Portugal the fleet reached Santiago, which was taken Defects of the and sacked, but yielded little treasure. The same dis- s-^stem. appointment awaited them in the West Indies. Despising smaller game, they took and held for a time San Domingo, the oldest town in the Indies, and Carthagena, the capital of the Spanish Main. The moral effect of these exploits was no doubt great, but the material profit was less than had been expected, and Drake, in order to indemnify the Queen and the other promoters of the expedition, exacted a large ransom in either case for the evacuation of the town. It had been a part of the original plan to seize Havana, but losses from sickness and war caused the expedition to turn homeward, not without a fair share of plunder. St. Augustine, on the coast of Florida, was looted on the way, and the miserable colonists of Virginia were visited and taken home. It is difficult and presumptuous to criticise Drake's plan of action. In his later expeditions he was hampered by the instructions of the Government and the opinions of others, as he had not been hampered earlier. He had Lack of a proposed in 1581 to seize Terceira, and make it a naval naval base. 1 r i_ • j 1 j • c • l base for harassmg and plundermg Spanish commerce. 62 THE VOYAGERS Many of his critics held, and some still hold, that he should have kept possession of Carthagena with the same object. But the profit-sharing system of naval enterprise made a policy of this kind almost impossible ; and to the end of his life the buccaneer in Drake held the upper hand of the statesman. If the English had established and fortified themselves on the main trading route of the Spanish Indies the story of the Armada might have remained unwritten. It is unnecessary to touch, except very briefly, on what T'he singeing followed. The founding of Colonies and the exploration phuils beard. of unknown lands had given way to the necessities of war ; and the history of Drake and Hawkins and Frobisher henceforward is a part of the history of England. In 1587 Drake was despatched with another fleet to make havoc of King Philip's preparations for invading England. It is from the realm of the Indies, says an Elizabethan sailor, that King Philip ' has feathers to fly to the top of his high desires.' Drake had singed his feathers ; he was now to singe his beard. He took and burned the shipping in Cadiz harbour, seized Cape St. Vincent, threatened Lisbon, and struck terror into the heart of the Spanish commanders. When the great Thelnmncible Armada at last set sail, Drake, if he had had his way, would have met and fought with it at the mouths of the Spanish harbours. But he was controlled by men who feared the boldness of his strategy, and the Spanish preparations were permitted to proceed in quietness. Let the rest be told in the grand style which reached its maturity in English at this very time, as if it had been designed for the deeds it was to celebrate. *This great preparation,' says Bacon, 'passed away like a dream. THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Expedition to Lisbon. The last Voyage of Drake and Hawkins. The Invincible Navy neither took any one barque of ours, neither yet once offered to land ; but after they had been well beaten and chased, made a perambulation about the Northern seas, ennobling many coasts with wrecks of mighty ships ; and so returned home with greater derision than they set forth with expectation/ The repulse of the Armada gave Drake no rest. The next year, in joint command with Sir John Norris, he led the expedition to Lisbon. They failed in their main purpose ; their losses were heavy, and their booty small. 'But the truth is,' says Camden, 'England reaped this benefit by the voyage, that from this time forward she feared nothing from Spain, but took greater heart and courage against the Spaniards.' Drake fell into disgrace, and was restored to favour only to share with Sir John Hawkins the command of another expedition, their second and last. In 1595, twenty-eight years after their fateful adventure in slave- trading, they put out again for the Indies with a fleet of twenty-seven sail, and strong land-forces. Sir John Hawkins was now over seventy years of age, burdened and saddened by the long cares of administration ; and the differences of temper and character between the two admirals had not been lessened by time. Thomas Maynarde, who served in the expe- dition, has left a vivid account of these differences.^ Of Drake he says, — ' It may be his self-willed and peremptory command was doubted, and that caused her Majesty, as should seem, to join Sir John Hawkins in equal commission, — a man old and wary, entering into matters with so leaden a foot, that the other's meat ^ Sir Francis Drake, His Voyage, 1^95 / ^J Thomas Maynarde. Society, 1 849.) 64 (Hakluyt THE VOYAGERS would be eaten before his spit could come to the fire : men of so different natures and dispositions, that what the one desired the other would commonly oppose against; and though their wary carriages sequestered it from meaner wits, yet was it apparently seen to better judgments before our going from Plymouth, that whom the one loved, the other smally esteemed.' When they reached the Indies they found the Spaniards forewarned and forearmed against them ; and their voyage was an unbroken tale of ill-success. The Spanish sea-power lu failure, was enormously increased, the towns guarded, the pay- ment of ransom forbidden, and the treasure concealed, so that even if Drake had been permitted to follow his old methods, it is doubtful whether he could have averted failure. Maynarde, in conversation, asked him where were the rich places he had promised to his followers. * He answered me with grief, protesting that he was as ignorant of the Indies as myself, and that he never thought any place could be so changed, as it were from T^he ruined a delicious and pleasant arbour into a waste and desert wilderness ; besides the variableness of the wind and weather, so stormy and blustrous as he never saw it before. But he most wondered that since his coming out of England he never saw sail worth giving chase unto ; yet, in the greatness of his mind he would, in the end, conclude with these words : " It matters not, man ; God hath many things in store for us ; and I know many means to do her Majesty good service, and to make us rich ; for we must have gold before we see England"; when, good gentleman, (in my conceit), it fared with him as with some careless living man who prodigally consumes his time, fondly persuading himself XII 65 E THE ENGLISH VOYAGES that the nurse that fed him in his childhood will likewise nourish him in his old age, and, finding the dug dried and withered, enforced then to behold his folly, tormented in mind, dieth with a starved body.' To redeem his favour with the Queen, Drake had thought to repeat some of his brilliant early exploits. No good thing can be repeated ; and this last voyage saw a dramatic reversal of his most fortunate achievements. His forces were repulsed Death of at Las Palmas and at Puerto Rico. Here Hawkins sickened and died. They sacked and burned Rio de la Hacha, seized Nombre de Dios, and thence sent forward a land expedition to surprise and plunder Panama. The isthmus was held in force by Spain, and the English were beaten off. Drake's chief hopes were now shattered, and he did what he had seldom done while his star prevailed; he asked the advice of his officers. 'Since our return from Panama,' says Maynarde, ' he never carried mirth nor joy in his face ; yet no man he loved must conjecture that he took thought thereof.' It was resolved to make an attempt on Granada, Leon, and the towns on the Lake of Nicaragua. The course was laid for St. John's Harbour, but the wind was steadily against them ; sickness broke out in the crews, and after some weeks' struggle, Drake * resolved to depart, and to take the wind as God sent it.' He had been attacked by the prevalent sickness; on the morning of the 28th of Death of January, 1596, he died, and was buried in the sea off Puerto Bello. * He was as famous,' says Stow, ' in Europe and America, as Tamburlaine in Asia and Africa.' When the news of his death was brought^ there was joy in Spain, and the people felt that the heavy hand of God had at last been lifted from them. 66 THE VOYAGERS The three great Vice-Admirals who defeated the Armada were now dead; for Frobisher had died in 1594, of a wound received at the work of dislodging the Spaniards from the coast of Brittany. The Lord High Admiral, ^^^^^ ^ ° yoyagers. Lord Charles Howard of Effingham, under whose command they had all served, led a great armament to Cadiz in the summer of 1596, seized the city, and inflicted enormous damage on the shipping in the harbour. He was created Earl of Nottingham, and lived on to an advanced old age. And how many more are there not, whose names are less famous, and whose deeds, recorded or unrecorded by Hakluyt, served to raise the name of their country .? John Oxenham, Drake's follower, the first Englishman who launched a boat on the Pacific ; Captain Thomas Fenner, one of three brothers, each of whom commanded a ship against the Armada ; Captain Edward Fenton, who explored the Arctic Seas, and harried the ships of Spain ; George Clifford, Earl of Cumberland, who made ten voyages in twelve years ; Sir William Monson, author of the Naval Tracts^ who began as a common sailor on board a merchantman, and rose to be an Admiral ; or James Lancaster, who in the years immediately after Hakluyt's publication opened a way for English commerce to the East ; — all these deserve celebration. And the sailors '^^^ , 111-1 -1 • 1 Elizabethan who manned the ships, who ate putrid penguins and mariners. drank bilge-water on strange seas, and who often, when their service to their country was rendered, pined in foreign prisons, or died by hundreds of starvation and cold and plague in the streets of the sea-ports of England, — they most pass without other memorial than the saying of the Lord High Admiral, ' God send us 67 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES to see such a company together again, when need is.* They were a cheerful race; and, as Drake says, when they were blessed with some little comfortable dew of heaven, some crowns, or some reasonable booties, they would take good heart again, although they were half i^^ . dead. Last of all, and among: the most characteristic Gentlemen . ° Adventurers, figures of the Elizabethan age, there are the gentlemen adventurers, the ambitious courtiers like Essex, the single-minded warriors, like Grenville, the spendthrift sons of fortune, like Cavendish, to whom the world was their oyster, which with their sword they must open. Never was there a set of men worse adapted for the sober business of establishing a colony, or governing a subject race ; yet they too were servants of the Empire, and cleared a way for those who came after them. Long generations of training and many hard blows were needed before the British race learned those lessons of justice and tact and tolerance which every Civil Servant in India must have by heart, now that the round world is mapped and settled. Whatever their faults, these Elizabethans bear the stamp of the heroic age; they lived in an illimitable world, and had nothing about them of tame civility. They are arrogant, excessive, indomitable, inquisitive, madmen in resolution, and children at heart. The great fight of the Revenge was undertaken against all the rules of orthodox naval 5ir Richard tactics, and in defiance of common sense. Its hero, says Linschoten, ' was of so hard a complexion, that as he continued among the Spanish captains, while they were at dinner or supper with him, he would carouse three or four glasses of wine, and in a bravery take the glasses between his teeth and crash them in 68 THE VOYAGERS pieces and swallow them down, so that oftentimes the blood ran out of his mouth/ In his own age his action off the Azores was recognised as something out of the beaten path of history, and to be matched only by poetry in its strongest and highest flights. * In the year 1591,* says Bacon, 'was that memorable The Last fight of an English ship called the Revenge^ under the jif^,g^L^ command of Sir Richard Grenville, memorable (I say) even beyond credit and to the height of some heroical fable: and though it were a defeat, yet it exceeded a victory ; being like the act of Samson, that killed more men at his death, than he had done in the time of all his life. This ship, for the space of fifteen hours, sate like a stag amongst hounds at bay, and was sieged and fought with, in turn, by fifteen great ships of Spain, part of a navy of fifty-five ships in all ; the rest like abettors looking on afar oflF. And amongst the fifteen ships that fought, the great San Philippo was one ; a ship of fifteen hundred ton, prince of the twelve Sea- Apostles^ which was right glad when she was shifted oflF from the Revenge, This brave ship the Revenge^ being manned only with two hundred soldiers and marines whereof eighty lay sick, yet nevertheless after a fight maintained (as was said) of fifteen hours, and two ships of the enemy sunk by her side, besides many more torn and battered, and great slaughter of men, never came to be entered, but was taken by composition ; the enemies themselves having in admiration the virtue of the commander and the whole tragedy of that ship/ Thomas Cavendish, who served as a volunteer under Thomas Sir Richard Grenville in the Virginian Expedition of 1585, ^^^^«^^'^^' is perhaps the most typical of the adventurous gallants of 69 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES the time. Like Bassanio, in The Merchant of Venice^ he had 'disabled his estate By something showing a more swelling port Than his faint means would grant continuance ' ; and in 1586, encouraged by the success of Drake, he furnished three ships to go in quest of the golden fleece. His voyage round the world was completed in a shorter time than Drake's; he returned in September, 1588, soon after the repulse of the Armada. The nature of his doings by the way is well set forth by himself in a letter H'u methods, to Lord Hunsdon : — * I navigated alongst the coast of Chili, Peru, and Nueva Espana, where I made great spoils : I burnt and sunk nineteen sails of ships, small and great. All the villages and towns that ever I landed at, I burnt and spoiled ; and had I not been discovered upon the coast, I had taken great quantity of treasure.' This account is not complete. He also slaughtered the Indians, devastated crops and orchards, and wherever he could lay hands on the symbols of ancient Christianity, crosses and images, he destroyed them with great zest. His violent and petulant temper breaks forth in his last melancholy letter, written when his second voyage, under- taken in 1 59 1, had failed, and he was a broken man. His crew are * hell-hounds' ; and John Davis, whose ship had been separated from the others by storms, is ' that villain, that hath been the death of me and the decay of this whole action.' Boastful and brave, careless of others, unflinching, unrelenting, unforgiving. Caven- dish has yet that intensity and wholeness of purpose which is the pith and marrow of great deeds. The greatest adventurer of them all lived on into the 70 THE VOYAGERS next reign, to be a monument of the age that was irre- coverably past, and, by his death, to cast a stain (if any- thing so dark and small can take a stain) on the character of James I. Of all the notable Elizabethans, Sir Walter ^^> Salter Raleigh is perhaps the most difficult to understand. He has the insolent imagination of Marlowe, and the pro- found melancholy of Donne. 'The mind of man,' he says in his History of the Worlds ' hath two ports, the one always frequented by the entrance of manifold vanities ; the other desolate and overgrown with grass, by which enter our charitable thoughts and divine contemplations.' Both gates of his mind stood open ; worldly hopes and braggart ambitions crowd and jostle through one entrance, but the monitors of death and eternity meet them, and whisper them in the ear. He schemes elaborately, even while he believes that ' the long day of mankind draweth fast towards an evening, and the world's tragedy and time are near at an end.' The irony of human affairs pos- sesses his contemplation ; his thoughts are high and fanciful ; he condescends to action, and fails, as all those fail whose work is done stooping. He is proud, sardonic, and aloof. His own boast is true — * There is none on the face of the earth that I would be fastened unto.' He takes part with others in no movement, and stakes little or nothing on the strength of human ties. The business of men on this earth seems trivial and insignifi- cant against the vast desert of eternity ; and great deeds alone are worth doing, for they, when they perish, add pomp to the triumph of death and oblivion. His political schemes are grandiose and far-reaching: His pride, the mere unfolding of them dwarfs the exploits of more practical men. Has Cavendish gained fame by plun- n THE ENGLISH VOYAGES dering the Spaniard ? ' It became not the former fortune/ says Raleigh, ' in which I once lived, to go journeys of picory; it had sorted ill with the offices of honour, which by her Majesty's grace I hold this day in England, to run from cape to cape, and from place to place, for the pillage of ordinary prizes/ Has Drake earned praise and reward for his assaults on the Indies ? * The King of Spain,* says Raleigh, ' is not so impover- ished by taking three or four port towns in America as we suppose, neither are the riches of Peru, or Nueva Espana, so left by the sea side, as it can be easily washed away with a great flood or springtide, or left dry upon the sands on a low ebb.* So he introduces his promise of El Dorado, the finding in Guiana of a better and richer Indies for her Majesty than the Indies of the King of Spain. Bacon on The whole problem of English policy is admirably ea-powet, s^niniarised by Bacon in his Considerations touching a War with Spain. ' For money/ he says, * no doubt it is the principal part of the greatness of Spain ; for by that they maintain their veteran army ; and Spain is the only State of Europe that is a money grower. But in this part, of all others, is most to be considered the ticklish and brittle state of the greatness of Spain. Their great- ness consisteth in their treasure, their treasure in the Indies, and their Indies (if it be well weighed) are indeed but an accession to such as are masters by sea. So as this axle-tree, whereupon their greatness turneth, is soon cut in two by any that shall be stronger than they by sea.* Drake and the seamen had put this argument into action; Raleigh, though no one better knew the importance of sea-power, must needs give it an original 72 THE VOYAGERS turn. It is useless, he says, to cripple the Spanish navy ; Raleigh on . . . , J 1 T^- r o ' ihe importance in a year the losses are repaired, and the King or bpain ^^^/^ 'beginneth again like a storm to threaten shipwrack to us all. ... It is his Indian gold that endangereth and disturbeth all the nations of Europe.' The way to defeat him is to appropriate a richer source of gold than any in his dominion. It seems likely that Raleigh was already chasing the phantom of El Dorado when he urged the settlement of Virginia. Then stories and fables reached him from the South American continent, and in 1595 he led his expedition up the Orinoco, and recorded his adventures in his tract. The 'Discovery of the Guiana. Large^ Rich and Beautiful Empire of Guiana^ printed in the following year. The tract has been condemned as being full of impostures and deceits. On the contrary, it is soberly and veraciously written ; the disappointing results of the expedition are accurately recorded, but so strong is the author's belief in his preconceived idea, that, from the title onward, his narrative conveys the impression of great things on the verge of achievement and untold wealth ready at a touch to fall into England's lap. It is the work of a poet, who bridles in his struggling Muse with pain. The will-o'-the-wisp of gold, which had led a thousand adventurers by devious paths about the world, led Raleigh to the scaffold, where he found relief from * those inmost and soul- piercing wounds which are ever^ aching while uncured,' and expiated his pride and his dreams. His death marks The last great the end of the heroic age; with him the poets and architects who had prophesied and planned pass away, and the accountants and builders begin their long and tedious task of erecting the fabric of the Empire. 73 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES II Richard RicHARD Hakluyt, the recorder of all these matters, akuyt. desired no memorial save his book. His relics lie buried under the ' star-ypointing pyramid' which, by his own incessant labour, he erected to the honour of his country. ' Master of Arts,' he calls himself, ' and sometime Student of Christ Church in Oxford.' Except to show that he is not unqualified for his task, and to express his gratitude to the learned foundations where he had his training, he does not speak of himself. He is a Scholar, Bibliographer, and Editor, and so has a threefold title to modesty and self-renunciation. On the title-page of his first book, the Divers Voyages of 1582, his name does not appear ; in the second and third volumes of the Voyages he pays his tribute to the Church of which he was a minister by describing himself as ' Richard Hakluyt, Preacher.' He was less of a preacher than was his disciple, Samuel Purchas, and his book is the gainer by it. No biography of him, in any full sense of that word, is possible. Except for a few bare facts and dates, all that we know of him is told us by himself, in his Prefaces and his few extant letters. No portrait of him has been recovered. He was buried in West- minster Abbey, but no inscription marks his grave, nor is it known in what part of the Church he lies. His modesty. There can be no doubt that this obscurity was of his own choosing ; and belonged, as of right, to his character and temper. He had many famous and influential friends, and was constantly in traffic with them for the enrichment of his book. They answered his questions, 74 RICHARD HAKLUYT gave him their help, were led to think on the topics he had broached, and thought nothing further of the questioner. He acknowledges his obligations to many His friends, * virtuous gentlemen,' who, partly from their private affection to himself, but chiefly from their devotion to the furtherance of his work, had lent him their assist- ance. Sir John Hawkins and Sir Walter Raleigh helped him with the Western voyages. William Burrough, Clerk of her Majesty's Navy, and Anthony Jenkinson, the Russian traveller, gave him the benefit of their experience for the voyages to the North East. The Lord Treasurer, Burghley, let him have access to a cabinet, or museum, of curiosities brought home by travellers. Sir Robert Cecil, in 1597, consulted him concerning the country of Guiana, and whether it were fit to be planted by the English. Sir Philip Sidney, Sir Francis Walsingham, and Lord Howard of Effing- ham, the Lord High Admiral of England, accepted his dedications, approved his purposes, and held converse with him. Mercator, Ortelius, Thevet, and other foreign cosmographers and scholars were his friends and corres- pondents. Yet it is vain to look for traces of him among the works and memorials of the brilliant com- pany that knew him in life. He is the silent man, His character, seated in the dark corner, who is content to listen and remember, and whose questions, interpolated from time to time, divert attention from himself, and direct it to the moving tales that come in answer to them. His own allusions to himself, though they are not infrequent, bear curious witness to his complete absorp- tion in his theme. Where he mentions himself it is to give authenticity to the remarks and memories which 75 Personal Reminiscences. THE ENGLISH VOYAGES he has collected in conversation. These stray references reveal him to us as indefatigable in research, at the Court, or on the highway, losing no opportunity of adding a single fact or observation to his store. We learn that at Paris he talked twice with Don Antonio, the Portuguese Pretender, who showed him a map of the North West passage ; and with * five or six of his best captains and pilots, one of whom was born in East India.' We find him ' in the Queen's privy gallery at Westminster,' or in the King's Library at Paris, or introduced by his friend, the Bishop of Chichester, to Lord Lumley's stately library, examining globes, con- sulting originals, copying manuscripts. Or he is in conversation with Mr. Jennings and Mr. Smith, 'the master and master's mate of the ship called the Tohy^ belonging to Bristol,' who bring him tales from Spain concerning the natives of Florida; or with 'an English gentleman. Captain MuiFett,' who has been a prisoner in Spain, and reports how the King of Spain fears nothing so much as the planting of an English colony in America ; or with a nameless sailor, ' one of mine acquaintance of Ratcliffe,' who tells how the French fishers attacked the Spanish fishers at Newfoundland, and how he, the English sailor, in the name of fair play, defended the Spaniards. So we catch glimpses of Richard Hakluyt wandering and enquiring without rest or remission. He has friends among French sailors ; one of them, Stephen Bellinger of Rouen, gives him a piece of supposed silver ore, and shows him beasts' skins, dressed and painted by the Indians ; another shows him a piece of the tree called Sassafras, brought from Florida, and expounds its high medicinal virtue. Mr. 76 RICHARD HAKLUYT Pryhouse, of Guernsey, meets him in London, and gives him news of the French scheme for colonising Canada ; another friend, unnamed, brings him an account of the setting up of a saw-mill in Worcestershire, which suggests to him that saw-mills might be set up on the Virginian coast. Among all these, his friends Never-ending and fellows, the Preacher moves like a shadow, giving his heart to search out concerning all things that are done under heaven, exercised with sore travail, and writing words of truth. The English nation may well be proud of him, and glad that, while its great destinies were still in the making, there lived a man quick enough to discern the significance of the deeds done around him, and steady enough, in purpose and perse- verance, to encounter and overcome the difficulties of giving to them an enduring chronicle. He was born, probably in London, about the year The Life of 1553. His family belonged to Eyton, or Yatton, in ^ ^^ ' Herefordshire, and from the time of Edward II onward, supplied not a few sheriffs and members of Parliament to the service of the country. The family was English, and the name, in its accepted form, owes its alien suggestion to the preservation of archaic spelling. It was pro- nounced, and sometimes spelt, Hacklewit. So Drayton, in his Ode to the Virginian Voyage : * Thy Voyages attend, Industrious Hackluit ; Whose reading shall inflame Men to seek fame, And much commend To after times thy wit.' Richard Hakluyt was early left an orphan, and possibly was under the guardianship of the cousin to whom he 77 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES owed his initiation and calling. He was educated at Westmmter Westminster School, where he was a Queen's Scholar. and Christ ' . . Church. Thence he passed to Christ Church, Oxford, in 1570, and proceeded in due course to the degree of Bachelor of Arts in 1574, and of Master of Arts in 1577. But before ever he went to Oxford he had taken the ply that shaped his whole life. There is something of ritual and emphasis in the unusual detail with which he tells Sir Francis Walsingham of his chance visit, in his boyhood, to his cousin, also called Richard Hakluyt, of the Middle Temple. A map of the world lay on the table, and Master Richard Hakluyt took occasion to give his young cousin a lesson in geography, showing how knowledge had been recently advanced ; explaining also (what seems to have been his own special study) the application of geography to commerce, and enumerating the products and the wants of each country. Then, although no vows were uttered, there followed a kind of dedication of the Preacher to his life's work. ' From the map,' says Hakluyt, ' he brought me to the Bible, and turning to the 107th Psalm, directed me to the twenty-third and twenty-fourth verses, where I read that they which go down to the sea in ships^ and occupy by the great waters^ they see the works of the Lord and His wonders in the deep. Which words of the Prophet, together with my cousin's discourse (things of high and rare delight to my young nature) took in me so deep an impression that I constantly resolved, if ever I were preferred to the University, where better time and more convenient place might be ministered for these studies, I would by God's assistance prosecute that knowledge and kind of literature, the doors whereof (after a sort) were so happily opened before me/ 78 His ordination. RICHARD HAKLUYT At Oxford, in the time he could save from prescribed fH^ ^ork at studies, he set himself to read and master all the Travels ^^' and Voyages extant in Greek, Latin, Italian, French, English, Spanish, or Portuguese. The first five of these languages he acquired ; Spanish remained long unknown to him, if we may judge from his habit of quoting Spanish treatises in Italian, French or English translations. Having taken his Master's degree, he lectured, ' in the common schools,' on the subject nearest to his heart, and was the first, he says, to demonstrate the advance of geo- graphy by comparing the new * lately reformed maps, globes, and spheres ' with the old inaccurate representa- tions. He mentions these lectures but slightly, and we do not know who were his audience. Thomas Lodge, the dramatist, whose father was interested in navigation, and who voyaged with Cavendish, may possibly have attended them. In 1582 the first-fruits of the Preacher's study appeared, with a dedication to Sir Philip Sidney. The title of this book (which has been reprinted by the Hakluyt Society) gives a clue to the patriotic ambitions of its author. It is called Divers voyages touching the discoverie His first booi of America and the Hands adjacent unto the same^ made first of all by our Englishmen and afterwards by the Frenchmen and Britons, It is in effect a pamphlet and collection of documents in support of England's prior claim to possess and settle the coast of America. In the dedication the main idea is expounded. ' The time approacheth,' says Hakluyt, ' and now is, that we of England may share and part stakes (if we will ourselves), both with the Spaniard and the Portingale, in part of America and other regions as yet undiscovered.' There is good hope, he says, that, besides possessing America, we may find out a 79 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES short and easy passage, by the North West, to more distant lands. And for these purposes what is chiefly necessary is a good system of technical education in nautical affairs. Nautical Throughout his life Hakluyt continued to urge on ucatton. ^^^ government and public the importance of sound nautical education. His scheme, though nothing came of it, was a modest one. A lectureship should be established ' in London or about Ratcliffe, in some con- venient place ' ; and he tells how Sir Francis Drake offered twenty pounds a year to this end ; but forty pounds a year was found needful to secure a fit man, and, no other donor presenting himself, the scheme fell through. The Spaniards, says Hakluyt, maintain at the Contractation House, or Exchange, in Seville, a learned Reader in the art of Navigation: and no-one is given charge of ships for the Indies until he has attended the instructions of the Reader and has satisfied a board of examiners who are joined with the Reader to test theoretical and practical knowledge. This Reader- ship, he points out, has already given to Spain the services of learned writers on the art of navigation, as Spanish £qj. instance Geronimo de Chavez, and Pedro de Medina, whose works are text-books for the navigators of all nations.^ What Hakluyt desires, in short, is a Nautical University or Faculty, where men may be trained and graduated in all the sciences and crafts that are necessary to furnish forth the complete navigator, and to make him an efficient servant of his country. He returns to 1 Pedro de Medina's Arte de Navegar (1545) was translated into English by John Frampton and published in London in 1581, a year before Hakluyt's Divers Foyages. 80 i /, ■K' ■-y-'-'O ,1^ ^a~.t- ^■"•"•^ -A "^/r '• •-« >-M! , ./...

It is true that France, by position, history, and train- ing, was from the first more under the influence of classic literature and ancient theory than ever England had been. But in England, too, when the drama began its course, the partisans of the classical doctrine were first in the field, and made the bravest start. Then the new interests arose, and overwhelmed them. The echoes of ancient wisdom and shadows of ancient beauty which held the attention of France were drowned and scattered in England by loud voices and fierce lights. Extravagant deeds filled the popular imagination, and could not, by any legerdemain of pedantry, be brought within the prescribed critical compass. If the dramatists refused allegiance to the rules, they were merely following the lead of the adventurers. The fatalism of Greek Tragedy, where the end is known before the beginning, could give no real pleasure to a people intoxicated with the delights of surprise, and intolerant of all limitation. In a world where anything may happen, the fairy-story or the romance of adventure is the safest literary model. The best exemplar of the new style is Marlowe, Marlowe and whose Tamhurlaine set the fashion followed by Greene I03 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES and Peele and many others. Without the Voyagers Marlowe is inconceivable. His imagination is wholly pre-occupied with the new marvels of the world and his heart possessed by the new-found lust of power. The tasks that Doctor Faustus assigns to his serviceable spirits might have been studied from the reports of travellers : * I'll have them fly to India for gold, Ransack the Ocean for orient pearl, And search all corners of the new-found world For pleasant fruits and princely delicates ; ... I'll levy soldiers with the coin they bring, And chase the Prince of Parma from our land And reign sole King of all our Provinces.' Gold again is the theme of the Jew of Malta, and con- Tamburkine. quest and kingship the inspiration of Tamburlaine. The Scythian conqueror, like Shakespeare's Italian gentlemen, is at heart an Englishman. When he tries to tempt the Persian general into his service, his persuasions savour of the nautical pride of the English : * Both we will walk upon the lofty cliffs And Christian merchants that with Russian sterns Plough up huge furrows in the Caspian Sea Shall vail to us, as lords of all the lake.' Historical parallels. In 1567 Hawkins fired on a friendly Spanish squadron in Plymouth Sound, to compel the Admiral to lower his flag, and in 1570 Lord Charles Howard of Effingham exacted a like tribute in the open Channel from a Spanish fleet of a hundred and thirty sail which was conveying King Philip's bride-elect from Holland to Spain. Even the name of the Caspian was reminiscent of English adventure. ' Our nation,' says Hakluyt, writing in 1598, * have adventured their persons, ships and goods, home- 104 POETRY AND IMAGINATION wards and outwards, fourteen times over the unknown and dangerous Caspian Sea.' It is the dominion of the The dominion sea, as well as of the land, that Marlowe's Tamburlaine ^-^ covets, and his eloquence reaches its highest when the sea is his theme. The defeat of Bajazeth, Emperor of the Turks, is a means to an end ; the Persian fleet, already in Tamburlaine's control, shall circumnavigate the earth, and join forces with the Turkish Medi- terranean squadron of men-of-war and buccaneers. Marlowe was an early friend of Raleigh's, and it is difficult not to read a political meaning into these sounding lines, written just after Drake's expedition of 1585, at a time when Don Antonio, the Portuguese pretender, had taken refuge at the English Court, and was being used by Raleigh as a counter in the great political game : 'So from the East unto the furthest West Tambur- Shall Tamburlaine extend his puissant arm. iaine's naval The galleys and those pilling brigandines policy. That yearly sail to the Venetian Gulf And hover in the Straits for Christians' wrecks, Shall lie at anchor in the isle Asant, Until the Persian fleet and men-of-war, Sailing along the oriental sea, Have fetched about the Indian Continent, Even from Persepolis to Mexico, And thence unto the Straits of Jubalter ; Where they shall meet and join their force in one Keeping in awe the Bay of Portingale, And all the ocean by the British shore ; And by this means I'll win the world at last.' As a naval plan of campaign this belongs to the school of Raleigh, who complained that the Queen did things Topical by halves. The immense popular success of I'ambur- success of laine^ which changed the fortunes of the English drama, /^^-^^ » 105 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES was due not solely to the resonance and splendour of the verse or the magic of the strange names. The audience listened to it in a temper quite unlike the temper that Coleridge's Kubla Khan begets in the modern reader. This drama of the world at stake was to them a representation of real affairs, and the high speeches of Tamburlaine voiced for them the defiance and the pride of England. The romance How entirely Marlowe's imagination had been cap- o; tscovery. ^^j.^^ j^y ^j^g discoveries and exploits of the navigators is clearly shown in Tamburlaine's dying speech, which expresses all the romance of geography and all the ambition of empire. The Conqueror feels his vital powers failing, and, with his sons by his side, calls for a map of the world : * Give me a map ; then let me see how much Is left for me to conquer all the world, That these, my boys, may finish all my wants.' The map is brought, and he traces on it his victorious progress through Asia and Africa, ' backwards and for- wards near five thousand leagues.' The Suez Canal is one of his unfulfilled schemes : * Here, not far from Alexandria, Whereas the Terrene and the Red Sea meet. Being distant less than full a hundred leagues, I meant to cut a channel to them both That men might quickly sail to India.' The dream of Then, for a legacy to his sons, he points to that part Empire. q£ ^^^ world, better than all the rest, which remains to conquer : * Look here, my boys ; see what a world of ground Lies westward from the midst of Cancer's line, Unto the rising of this earthly globe ; Whereas the sun, declining from our sight, io6 POETRY AND IMAGINATION Begins the day with our Antipodes ! And shall I die, and this unconquered ? Lo, here, my sons, are all the golden mines, Inestimable drugs and precious stones, More worth than Asia and all the world beside ; And from the Antarctic Pole eastward behold As much more land, which never was descried, Wherein are rocks of pearl that shine as bright As all the lamps that beautify the sky ! And shall I die, and this unconquered ? Here, lovely boys ; what death forbids my life. That let your lives command in spite of death.' Since the days of Ben Jonson it has been too much Serious the habit of critics to cast ridicule or contempt upon J^^^^^ ' the Tamerlanes and Tamer-Chams of the late age, which /aine.' had nothing in them but scenical strutting and furious vociferation to warrant them to the ignorant gaper.' This last speech of Tamburlaine's, like some others that are given to him, is high and serious; Hakluyt, who knew the fascination of the map, and Gilbert, who gave his life in the cause of empire, might say Amen to it. The sense of liberty and power, and of belief in the T^^ capacity and destiny of man, which was quickened by the fj'^pj^ ^^ new discoveries, distinguishes the literature of the Eliza- bethan age from the great backward-looking periods of romance. It is a literature of youth and hope, with none of the subtle and poignant flavours that are to be tasted in a literature of regret and memory. If Marlowe may in some regards be fitly compared with Shelley, there is no counterpart in Elizabethan literature to the melan- choly of Keats. Many old stories, it is true, were borrowed ; mediaeval and classical fables were ransacked for themes. But Spenser's chivalry is a convention, and no true revival ; he portrays his own age, and his own contemporaries, as they appeared to him ; he too 107 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES is concerned chiefly with the future. Plays like Dekker's Olde Fortunatus show the temper that animates Mar- lowe ; the sober moral is almost forgotten in a maze of "^^^ delightful wonders. But it would be wrong to regard unchanging .. , . . , , ° , themes of ^ great literature as notnmg more than the home and poetry. haunt of a thing so evanescent as the spirit of the age. Poetic imagination sits aloof, and studies enduring themes. Thomas Lodge wrote his gentle pastoral romance of Rosalynd on a voyage of discovery and pillage ; George Sandys, being arrived off the coast of Virginia with the colonising expedition that succeeded at last, devoted his spare hours to the translation of Ovid. The New World did not obliterate the Old, and the new discoveries did not monopolise the thought of a century. In the case, therefore, of the greatest poet of all, Shakespeare, it is enough if it can be shown that his imagination was alive to this new world of speculation and opportunity. A poet's predilections are often more truly seen in his illustrations and digressions than in Raleigh's his choice of subject. Sir Walter Raleigh, for instance, in his long, dreary History of the World is kept far away from almost all that had engaged his active life. But when he is moved to passion, his mind reverts to the sea. The greatest passages of his book deal with death and mutability, and continually illustrate human life from the experience of voyagers. 'When we once come in sight of the port of death, to which all winds drive us, and when by letting fall that fatal anchor, which can never be weighed again, the navigation of this life takes end ; then it is, I say, that our own cogitations (those sad and severe cogitations, formerly beaten from us by our health and felicity) return again, ic8 POETRY AND IMAGINATION and pay us to the uttermost for all the pleasing passages of our lives past.' And again : ' For myself, if I have in anything served my country, and prized it before my private; the general acceptation can yield me no other profit at this time than doth a fair sunshine day to a seaman after shipwrack, and the contrary no other harm than an outragious tempest after the port attained.' Images like these, rising to the memory when the thought His habitual is most spontaneous and sincere, speak to the habitual °^^ workings of the mind, and are more convincing than the most elaborate descriptive sea-piece. Though he was inland bred, it is certain that Shake- Shakespeare speare knew and loved the sea. The handling of the ship in the Tempest^ and the talk of the sailors in the storm-scene of Pericles have excited the admiration of experienced judges. The single grave charge brought against his competence as a navigator is based on the two allusions in the Tempest to the 'glasses' formerly used as a measure of time at sea, and now superseded by bells. From a comparison of these two passages it His single seems that Shakespeare believed that the glasses measured hours, whereas they measured half-hours.-^ He could not ^ The passages are: Act I. Sc. ii. 1. 240, where, just after the wreck, Prospero asks the time ; Ariel. * Past the mid season.' Prospero. *At least two glasses. The time 'twixt six and now Must by us both be spent most preciously,' and Act V. 1. 223, at the close of the play, where the Boatswain reports : ^ Our ship. Which but three glasses since we gave out split, Is tight, and yare, and bravely rigged, as when We first put out to sea.' There is a similar error in JlPs Well that Ends Well, Act II. Sc. i. 109 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES have made this mistake if he had been moderately con- versant with life at sea. His habitual carelessness, it is true, may be invoked to save his reputation as a seaman. But many other passages of his writing testify rather to a love of the sea than to a love of navigation. Venus, when Adonis breaks away from her, is compared to ' One on shore Gazing upon a late-embarked friend, Till the wild waves will have him seen no more, Whose ridges with the meeting clouds contend : So did the merciless and pitchy night Fold in the object that did feed her sight/ And his most famous descriptions, like that which occurs in King Henry IV's lament over the unattainable sleep, exhibit a marvellous power of poetic imagination and diction at work upon the material of common knowledge. His sailors. The seamen, whom he sketches unerringly, were to be met on shore. A real sailor's chanty, unlike any other song in the Plays, is given to Stephano in the Tempest: * The master, the swabber, the boatswain, and I, The gunner, and his mate. Loved Moll, Meg, and Marian, and Margery, But none of us cared for Kate.' This little lyric, with its ' scurvy tune,' suggests life ashore, in the taverns of Deptford and Wapping. There is more technical knowledge of the sea than might have been expected in Shakespeare's plays, but no exact inference can be drawn from it. Allusions to The extent to which the sea and sea-faring dominated the imagination of Shakespeare may be better judged in more indirect fashion, from his figures and allusions. It is not merely that in at least a dozen of his plays there are sea-faring characters, or voyages, or scenes laid the sea. POETRY AND IMAGINATION on the sea-coast. There is none of his contemporaries whose works are so full of the sentiment of the sea. To take one play out of many that would serve equally well, in Othello the scene is laid at Venice and Cyprus, so that nautical affairs bulk largely in it. But this is not enough to explain the frequency and the magnificence of Shakespeare's allusions. The height of joy and of tragic passion constantly find their most adequate expres- sion in the language of the sea. So in the meeting of '^^hello. Othello with Desdemona at Cyprus : * O my soul's joy ! If after every tempest come such calms, May the winds blow till they have waken'd death ; And let the labouring bark climb hills of seas, Olympus-high, and duck again as low As hell's from heaven ! If it were now to die, 'Twere now to be most happy.' So, again, in Othello's reply to lago's counsels of patience : * Never, lago. Like to the Pontic sea Whose icy current and compulsive course Ne'er feels retiring ebb, but keeps due on. To the Propontic and the Hellespont ; Even so my bloody thoughts, with violent pace, Shall ne'er look back, ne'er ebb to humble love. Till that a capable and wide revenge Swallow them up.' So, again, in Ludovico's last apostrophe to lago : * O Spartan dog More fell than anguish, hunger, or the sea.' In the greatness of Othello's passion there is the lift and the wash of the sea ; in the inhuman treachery of lago there is its cruelty and its mystery. There is evidence enough, in well-known passages. Borrowed of Shakespeare's acquaintance with the discoveries of III names. THE ENGLISH VOYAGES the voyagers. The name Caliban is almost certainly a distortion of Cannibal, and Setebos is a divinity of the Patagonians, described by Master Francis Fletcher, in his account of Drake's great voyage, as 'Settaboth, that is, the Divell, whom they name their great god/ But it was the reports brought home by the Virginian adventurers that set Shakespeare's im- Firgtnia. agination to work. The colony was planted in 1609; and the first Governor, Lord Delaware, was diligent in building towns and forts, and in bringing the Indians under control. Sir George Somers, deputy-Governor, was shipwrecked on the Bermudas, which were in ill repute as the haunt of wicked spirits and foul weather, but were found by the castaways to be temperate, fruitful, and pleasant. The tale of these adventures, brought by word of mouth, or published in The Dis- covery of the Barmudas^ otherwise called the He of Divels (1610), — a tract by Sylvester Jourdain, one of Sir George Somers' company, — gave the finest and subtlest The wit in the world a theme for a play. The Tempest is a 'Tempest: fantasy of the New World. It is too full of the ether of poetry, and too many-sided to be called a satire, yet Shakespeare, almost alone, saw the problem of Ameri- can settlement in a detached light; and a spirit of humorous criticism runs riot in the lighter scenes. The drunken butler, accepting the worship and allegiance of Caliban, and swearing him in by making him kiss the bottle, is a fair representative of the idle and dis- solute men who were shipped to the Virginian colony. Miranda. The situation of Miranda was perhaps suggested by the story of Virginia Dare, grand-daughter of Captain John White, the first child born in America of English 112 POETRY AND IMAGINATION parents. She was born in 1587 and christened along with Manteo, one of the Indians who had visited England with Captains Amadas and Barlow. That same year she was abandoned, along with the other colonists. In 1607, when the settlement was next renewed, it was reported that there were still seven of the English alive among the Indians, 'four men, two boys, and one maid.' The strange girlhood of this one maid, if she were Virginia Dare, may well have set Shakespeare's fancy working. And the portrait of Caliban, with his affectionate loyalty to the drunkard, Caliban. his adoration of valour, his love of natural beauty and feeling for music and poetry, his hatred and super- stitious fear of his task-master, and the simple cunning and savagery of his attempts at revenge and escape — all this is a composition wrought from fragments of travellers' tales, and shows a wonderfully accurate and sympathetic understanding of uncivilised man. These travellers' tales gave a new import to the old "^^^ Golden fables of Arcadia and the Golden Age. The poetic idea * of the original simplicity and virtue of man seemed to be confirmed by the warrant of sober fact, and steadily gained in acceptance, until, in the Eighteenth Century, it overturned the institutions and disturbed the peace of Europe. Montaigne, in his essay Of Cannibals^ ex- presses the view of a philosophic observer. ' I find,' he says, speaking of the Indians, '.that there is nothing barbarous and savage in this nation, by anything that I can gather, excepting that everyone gives the title of barbarism to everything that is not in use in his own country. . . . They are savages at the same rate that we say fruits are wild, which nature produces of herself XII 113 H THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Montaigne on Cannibals. The perfect Common- wealth. Shakespeare and the Golden Age, and by her own ordinary progress ; whereas in truth we ought rather to call those wild, whose natures we have changed by our artifice, and diverted from the common order. ... I am sorry that Lycurgus and Plato had no knowledge of them : for to my apprehension, what we now see in those nations does not only surpass all the pictures with which the poets have adorned the Golden Age, and all their inventions in feigning a happy state of man, but, moreover, the fancy and even the wish and desire of philosophy itself; so native and so pure a simplicity, as we by experience see to be in them, could never enter into the poets' imagination, nor could they ever believe that human society could have been maintained with so little artifice and human patchwork.' Then follows the famous passage which Shakespeare borrowed for Gonzalo's description of his perfect com- monwealth, in the Tempest, *I should tell Plato,' says Montaigne, ^ that it is a nation wherein there is no manner of traffic, no knowledge of letters, no science of numbers, no name of magistrate or political superi- ority; no use of service, riches or poverty; no con- tracts, no successions, no dividends, no properties ; no employments but those of leisure; no respect of kindred, but common ; no clothing, no agriculture, no metal, no use of coin or wine; the very words that signify lying, treachery, dissimulation, avarice, envy, detraction, pardon, never heard of. How much would he find his imaginary Republic short of this perfection } ' The humours of this ideal as a practical theory of colonisation tickled Shakespeare's fancy; the combination of the virtues of the Golden Age with that extension of trade and of sovereignty which was aimed at by the 114 POETRY AND IMAGINATION explorers made a delightful paradox; and he interrupts Gonzalo's speech with a running fire of scornful comment from the two men of sin. Yet he, too, came under the spell of the Golden Age, and, for all we know, would have been willing to say with Montaigne, *I am some- times troubled that we were not sooner acquainted with these people, and that they were not discovered in those better times when there were men much more able to judge of them than we are.' He had always coveted a retreat from the struggles and clamour of the Court and city; but the retreats pictured in his later plays have a primitive simplicity which is lacking in the pleasure- gardens of the King of Navarre and the masquerading of the forest of Arden. Perdita, who, like Miranda, is prompted in all her words and actions by a plain and holy innocence, is something of a devotee of Nature. She will have no flowers in her garden, not the fairest of the season, if Art has had a share in their production ; and she is deaf to the reproofs of experience. The The religion religion in which Belarius, the upright banished courtier v^^^^^^- in Cymbeline^ educates his adopted sons is a pure religion of naturalism ; their brief ritual is performed as they come out from the cave where they house : Belarius. * Stoop, boys : this gate Instructs you how to adore the heavens, and bows you To Morning's holy office : the gates of monarchs Are arch'd so high, that giants may jet through And keep their impious turbans on, without Good morrow to the Sun.

THE ENGLISH VOYAGES In these rocks Belarius has lived, he says, for twenty years, and during that time has paid more pious debts to heaven than in all the fore-end of his life. A kind of weariness of institutions pervades Shakespeare's later plays ; and it is easy to believe that the fascinating tales told by the voyagers quickened his longing for a simpler society, and contributed something to his magical descrip- tions of innocence and kindliness, whether in the wizard's cell on the island, or on the shepherd's lawn in Bohemia, or in the cave among the mountains of Wales.

But whether it count for much or little in the history of his thought, the great fact of the Voyages can never be neglected, nor its influence on the national imagination denied. In this partial and naked record, preserved for us by Hakluyt, are inscribed the deeds which for half a century excited wild emotions, kindled emulation in the young, provided strange food for the intellect, and gave strength and purpose to the activities of a nation.

The poets and men of action vied with each other in the effort to outshine deeds with words, and ii6 POETRY AND IMAGINATION to impoverish words with deeds. Both were fantastic and extravagant, but the morbid literary extravagance which refuses the test of action, and claims to be judged as a thing apart, in a filigree world of its own creation, belongs to ages less full-blooded and vigorous and sane. This great background and seminary of action gave The Age of its colour and character to the literature of the Eliza- ^f^j^ff/'''^ bethan age. The later and lesser outburst of Romantic Revived poetry at the beginning of the Nineteenth Century had ^^^^^^^• origins curiously different. As the Voyagers were the begetters of the Elizabethan age, so were the Encyclopaedists of the age of revived Romance. The later movement had its impulse and inspiration from the long labours of critical thought and the hopes of awakening science. The poetry of the Nineteenth Century, unlike the poetry of the Elizabethans, began in reaction and protest. For three generations and more before William Blake struck the note that was to dominate Romantic poetry, the disciples of positive knowledge had been busy at their work of questioning, examining, undermining, condemning, without hesitation or remorse ; and the poets of the new age were the The poetry of rebellious children of the destroyer. Some of them, ^^^^. taking advantage of the conquests of critical knowledge in the domain of history, flung themselves back into the Middle Ages, and attempted to live as pensioners on the faith of a bygone time. Others, fired by the hope of a new happiness to be achieved by experimental science and philanthropy, lived in their dreams of the future, built cloud-castles of wonderful tenuity and beauty, and peopled bubble-worlds with phantoms of men. Almost all the poetry of the age is ' sicklied o'er 117 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES with the pale cast of thought/ Those of the poets who, like Keats, celebrate the joys of the moment, for the most part regard these joys as a palliation only, a brief respite and escape from the prevailing melancholy. They glut their sorrows ' on a morning rose, or on the rainbow of the salt sand-wave.' It is the distinction of Words- worth that he alone among the greater poets did not renounce or blaspheme the age and the world, but found in it room enough for hope and faith and lasting Diseases of joy. But the poetry of the aere, taken as a whole, is thought. \/ rr J c 1 -11 • • 1 disairectea — out or sympathy with the mam motives that stir men to action, and liable to all the diseases generated by abstract thought. The worst of these, which attack only weak constitutions, producing kinks in the brain, and making men the fevered and querulous slaves of ideas they are not strong enough to master, may be dis- covered in not a few of the later followers and adherents of the Romantic movement. It was the misfortune of the age that, struggling in the meshes of thought, it found no sufficient opportunity for clear, united, whole- Godwm and hearted, and decisive action. Some of its poets were ardent students of Godwin's Political Justice^ a book alert and blind, full of vaporous casuistry, giving ample exercise to the logical faculty, and absolutely ignoring those passions, desires and powers, which are the breath of human life. The Elizabethan poets were happier in their teachers — they had Hakluyt's Voyages, When all is said, the chief influence of Hakluyt and his noble company must not be looked for in literature. Literature is only one expression of the imaginative The value of Jif^ Qf ^ people, and not the most important. It is deeds. , ^ ^ i j- • i i r true that poetry can never be diviaed rrom action ii8 POETRY AND IMAGINATION without paying heavy penalties. Only by keeping firm hold of that guarantee of sincerity which is supplied by the deed done can it steer clear of the slippery pitfall of rhetoric. But action is not dependent on poetry ; and the inarticulate generations who inherited and carried on the work celebrated in the Book of Voyages played for higher stakes than praise. It was almost an accident that the book was made ; the dynasty of Drake and Hawkins and Frobisher would have es- tablished its reign had it never found a chronicler. In 1776 proposals were issued for a reprint of Hakluyt, Reprints of 1 1 , . J , 1 r 11 1 1 Hakluyt's but support was lacking, and the scheme tell through. ^^^^^ A single later reprint, numbering three hundred and twenty five copies, satisfied the demand of near three hundred years. It is the high reward of great deeds that they can aflFbrd to be forgotten. Fame is a luxury, if not a vanity. By secret and unconscious methods of initiation, by that unwritten tradition which descends from father to son, by the law of nature which gives currency to inherent value no matter whose the super- scription, the ideas and aims of the great Elizabethan seamen have become the creed of the British Empire. Yet Hakluyt's book, though it has little to do with the history of letters, gives, to those who care to read, a rare opportunity of insight into the hidden processes of the making of a nation. When it was first published ^ J'^^ordof all that had been imagined and attempted, at the cost of so many years of effort and so many men's lives, was yet to do. No thoroughfare had been dis- covered by the North East or the North West. No English community had been established oversea. No gold-mine was in the possession of England. The 119 THE ENGLISH VOYAGES Spanish power was stronger on the seas than it had been before the Armada. So far the record is one of failure. But on the other side of the account there is an item The zvarrant which cannot be neglected. It is to be found in those oj success. \QXig and dull lists of unknown names, of merchant promoters, gentlemen adventurers, intending colonists, and ship's companies, which give so business-like an air to Hakluyt's pages. It may be true, as someone has said, that these detailed summaries 'leave as little im- pression of excitement or emulation upon our minds as so many almanacks.' But they held in them the promise of Empire. The ideas of colonial expansion and of the command of the sea had captured the nation ; the seeds had been scattered, and were germinating in tens The island q{ thousands of minds. From the sea England had and the sea. , i j i_ • c *. - - been peopled by successive waves or conquest or immi- gration ; to the sea, after a long interval, she gave back a race who had learned that there and there alone could her safety be secured and her name upheld. As a people — to borrow a phrase from the poetry of common speech — we follow the sea; it will be an ill day for us when the tides that wash the world run their ancient courses, and we may not follow.
