Sir James meanwhile had left Ireland, and at every Catholic Court in Europe was busily pleading for aid towards a crusade against England. Failing in France, he appealed to Philip of Spain. Philip, however, at the moment was not prepared to break with Elizabeth, whereupon Fitzmaurice, undeterred by failure, pre- sented himself next before the Pope. Here he was more successful, and preparations for the collection of 184 THE DESMOND REBELLION. a considerable force was at once set on foot, a pro- ...minent English refugee, Dr. Nicolas Saunders, being appointed to accompany it as legate. Saunders, who had distinguished himself not long before by a violent personal attack against Elizabeth, -threw himself heart and soul into the enterprise, and in a letter to Philip pointed out all the advantages that were to be won by it to the Catholic cause. "Men," he assured him, " were not needed." Guns, powder, a little money, and a ship or two with stores from Spain, and the whole country would soon be at his feet.
