The envoy protested that when they could get a couple of eggs apiece, while travelling in Flanders, "they thought they fared likeprinces. " Nevertheless Cecil and himself fought it out manfully, and when theyreached Ghent, at five in the evening, they were met by theiracquaintance Garnier, and escorted to their lodgings. Here they werewaited upon by President Richardot, "a tall gentleman, " on behalf of theDuke of Parma, and then left to their much-needed repose.
Nothing could be more forlorn t
...han the country of the obedientNetherlands, through which their day's journey had led them. Desolationhad been the reward of obedience. "The misery of the inhabitants, " saidCecil, "is incredible, both without the town, where all things arewasted, houses spoiled, and grounds unlaboured, and also, even in thesegreat cities, where they are for the most part poor beggars even in thefairest houses. " And all this human wretchedness was the elaborate work of one man--onedull, heartless bigot, living, far away, a life of laborious ease andsolemn sensuality; and, in reality, almost as much removed from thesefellow-creatures of his, whom he called his subjects, as if he had beenthe inhabitant of another planet.
