Besides, he brings this noble Prince upon the Stage, acting a mean piece of Dissimulation to cover his Confidence with so worthy a Person as Mons. _de Cros_; 'tis concerning his Dispatch so often mentioned into _Holland_; for being forc't to confess, that the King was angry with him at his return from thence; He plaisters it up with saying, p. 25. _If the late King of _England_ did not approve of my Conduct in the Affairs of _Nimeguen_, which in effect he declared in publick not to be pleased with, in which he plaid his part to admiration_, &c. But since we have seen the Character he gives of him as a King, let us observe how he Treats His Majesty as a _Mediator_, and how he Represents him balancing the Affairs of _Christendom_ then in his hands. First, _de Cros_ tells us, This Dispatch of his _was concerted with Monsieur _Barillon__: For tho he says, That that Ambassadour had no hand in the beginning of it, yet he owns him in the same place to _have part of it when it was concluding_; and that _Monsieur _de Ruvigny_ was dispatcht by the King with an Account of it to the _French Court_ the very same day that _de Cros_ was sent away for _Nimeguen__. And _p. 25._ He tells us further, That _Prince _Rupert_ askt him upon his Return, with a stern Countenance, If the Peace was concluded? and he answering in the Affirmative, the Prince cried out, O Dissimulation!_ And _p. 28._ he tells us, That the _Prince of _Orange (the Kings Nephew)_ writ thundring Letters against him; and all the Ministers of the Confederates called for Vengeance_, &c. Yet after all these Marks of something so very injurious to the _Allies_, and confidence to _France_, _The King _(says he, in the page last mentioned)_ laughs in his Sleeve at the Surprize, at the Sorrow, and Complaints of the Confederates_. Which is to give us just such a Character of a _Mediator_, as he did before of a _King_. I leave it to all mens Judgment, whether more villanous Slanders could have been broached abroad by the worst of this Prince's Enemies; and whether it be not a Scandal to our Country, that they should be translated and published in _English_. But since Monsieur _de Cros_ is so bold with the Sacred Memory of a Great King, for which he is yet so Impudent, as to profess _a most profound Respect_; What can a _Subject_ expect, for whom he owns such a virulent Malice, and to whom he threatens such open Revenge.
