-THE
-
-HISTORY
-
-OF
-
-Solyman the Magnificent, and Mustapha his Son.
-
-
-As the Town has been so agreeably entertain’d with the
-Tragedy of Mustapha, written by the celebrated Author of Eurydice, and
-other valuable Pieces, I think it will not be amiss to give a short
-Account of the Life and Actions of _Solyman_, the Father of _Mustapha_,
-mix’d with those of that unfortunate Prince, who gives Title to the
-Play.
-
-Solyman the Magnificent, (Father to _Mustapha_, by a beautiful
-_Circassian_ Slave, and _Tzianger_, by the ambitious _Roxolana_) was
-one of the most potent Princes of the _Othoman Race_: He was the Son
-of _Selimus_, who died in the midst of his Victories, upon the Road
-to Adrianople, of a _Cancer_ in his Reins, in September 1520, when
-_Charles_ V. was Emperor of _Germany_, _Henry_ VIII. King of _England_,
-_Francis_ I. King of France, _James_ V. King of _Scotland_, and _Leo_
-X. Pope of Rome.
-
-At the Time of his Father’s Death, _Solyman_ was at _Magnesia_[A], and
-receiving Notice of his Father’s Death from _Ferhates Bassa_, only,
-(as _Selimus_ his Father had formerly attempted to poison him, fearing
-his amiable Qualities) gave little Credit to the Information: But when
-he received the Confirmation from _Pyrrhus_, and _Mustapha_, _Bassas_
-at Adrianople, he ventur’d to Scutari[B], where he was met by the
-_Aga_ of the _Janizaries_[C], and Numbers of the People, (yet ignorant
-of the Death of _Selimus_) from whence he was conducted over to
-_Constantinople_[D], where the Body of the _Janizaries_ were prepar’d
-on the Shore to meet him.
-
-The Moment he landed, the _Aga_ cry’d with a loud Voice, _Behold_ your
-_Emperor_ Solyman! The _Janizaries_, transported with Joy, reply’d with
-one Voice, Long live Solyman, our great Emperor!
-
-Solyman was in his Twentieth Year, when he was first seated in
-the Turkish _Throne_; and for several Years reign’d as a _benign
-Prince_. But being corrupted by the Artifices of _Roxolana_, and the
-impious Designs of _Rustan_ his Grand Vizir, who wedded a Daughter of
-_Roxolana_’s, began to dip his Hands in Blood.
-
-However he perform’d many glorious Actions at the Head of his own
-Armies.
-
-The first Year of his Reign, he took from _Lewis_ King of _Hungary_, a
-peaceable Prince, the strong City of _Belgrade_[E].
-
-He afterwards turn’d his Arms against the City of _Rhodes_. I shall be
-something particular in this Siege, because our Countrymen had a hand
-in bravely defending the place.
-
-Solyman was not present at the first investing of[F] _Rhodes_; but
-his Troops being often beat by the Besieged, and losing above forty
-Thousand of his Soldiers, (tho’ the _Rhodians_ were not six Thousand
-fighting Men) be repair’d to the Camp to encourage his Troops.
-
-The Emperor’s Arrival gave new life to his fainting Army; and
-perceiving the _English_ Bulwark annoy’d him most, sprung a Mine, that
-blew many a brave _Englishman_ to Immortality.
-
-The Turks upon this Success, with loud Shouts attack’d the Breach;
-but the Grand Master, _Philip Vellinus_, at the Head of the remaining
-_English_, repuls’d them, with the Loss of two Thousand _Janizaries_.
-
-The Cannon of the Besieged did great Execution among the _Turks_, and
-their being often repuls’d, gave _Solyman_ but little Hopes of gaining
-the City by Force; for even the Women of all Degrees threw down Stones
-from the Battlements on the Heads of the Besiegers, when they came to
-scale their Walls.
-
-Solyman, after musing alone in his Tent, sent for all his chief
-Commanders, and told them he would make one general Assault; and if the
-City was taken, the Troops should be rewarded with the Plunder.
-
-A poor Christian Slave hearing the Proclamation to the Troops, found
-Means to let the _Rhodians_ know of _Solyman_’s Design for the next Day.
-
-The _Grand Master_ (at this Notice) prepar’d every thing to oppose them.
-
-The next Morning before Break of Day, the _Turks_ attack’d the City
-with loud _Tecbirs_, or Shouts of _Onset_, in five several Places
-at once with fifty Thousand Men. The Enemy was repuls’d with great
-Slaughter from the _English_ and _Italian_ Quarter. But in the mean
-time _Mustapha_ Bassa, and _Achmetes_ Bassa, attack’d the _Spanish_
-Bulwark, (whose Defenders were three parts gone to assist the _Italian_
-and _English_) and soon became Masters of it.
-
-But the _Grand Master_, with several Knights of the Order, retook it
-again, after an obstinate Defence, with the Death of all the _Turks_.
-
-This Success gave new Life to the _Rhodians_, who every where repuls’d
-their Enemies.
-
-Solyman on a neighbouring Hill saw all with the utmost Vexation of
-Mind, and seeing no Hope of Success, order’d a Retreat to be sounded:
-The harrass’d Troops retir’d to their Camp, leaving above twenty
-Thousand of their Fellows lifeless behind them, as a Token of the
-Valour of their Enemies.
-
-This ill Success so provok’d _Solyman_, that he gave Orders that
-_Mustapha Bassa_ should immediately be put to death, tho’ he had done
-all in the Assault a wise and brave General could do.
-
-Pyrrhus _Bassa_ hearing of this severe Command, notwithstanding
-_Solyman_’s Rage, went to intercede for him; but his Rage continuing,
-he order’d _Pyrrhus_ to undergo the same Fate.
-
-The rest of his Council fell at his Feet to hinder so cruel a Command,
-some begging to suffer with them, vowing never to rise till their
-honest Suit was granted.
-
-The Emperor’s Passion at last subsiding, he pardon’d _Mustapha_ and
-_Pyrrhus_.
-
-However, his Admiral, because he could not prevent the Relief that
-came by Sea into the Town, did not fare quite so well. He was order’d
-to receive the Bastinado (or Scourging) as a common Slave, on board
-his own Galley, and had been put to death, but for the Persuasion of
-_Achmetes Bassa_, who had a great Influence over _Solyman_.
-
-The _Emperor’s_ ill Success began to make him turn his Thoughts from
-the Siege, tho’ with the utmost Reluctance; to see the Course of his
-victorious Arms stopp’d by a handful of Men, was what his ambitious
-Soul could not bear.
-
-He summon’d another Council of War of all his grand Officers, where,
-after many Debates, he was persuaded to continue the Siege, and by the
-Strength of their Vows and Promises to conquer, he began to build him
-a Palace on the Brow of Mount _Philermus_, where from the Battlements
-he could take a View of what was done in the City of _Rhodes_. But
-the Gross of the _Turkish_ Army murmur’d at the Continuance of the
-Siege, shot Letters upon the Heads of Arrows frequently into the Town
-discovering every thing that was done in Council, with Promise of the
-Revolt of _Mustapha Bassa_ for the ill Usage he had receiv’d from the
-Emperor _Solyman_.
-
-But notwithstanding the Valour of the _Rhodians_, (who twice more
-repuls’d the _Othomans_ with great Slaughter) they began to want every
-thing that was necessary: And by eager Persuasions of the Inhabitants
-that had Families in the City, he was prevail’d upon to send an Embassy
-to _Solyman_, tho’ not before the _Turks_ had gain’d two hundred Paces
-in Breadth, and a hundred and fifty in Length, within the outward Wall.
-
-When the _Ambassador_ came before _Solyman_, he demanded the immediate
-Surrender of the City; and if the _Rhodians_ would trust his Clemency,
-now, without farther Hostilities, their Lives, Estates and Freedoms
-should be safe.
-
-Solyman imagining these Promises would prevail upon the harrass’d
-_Rhodians_, sent a Letter to the same purpose to be read in publick to
-them by a _Genoese_.
-
-When the Letter was read, the Grand Master was of the opinion to hold
-out the Siege to the last: But a _Greek Priest_, with Tears running
-down his Cheeks, begg’d he would prevent the final Destruction of
-so many innocent People; at the same time praising the Clemency of
-_Solyman_ to those that yielded to his Arms.
-
-He was constrain’d to comply with their Desires, and surrender’d the
-City to the Emperor, who enter’d in Triumph on the 25th of _December_
-1522.
-
-In the Year 1526, _Solyman_ turn’d his Arms against _Hungary_, with an
-Army of two hundred thousand Men, and advanc’d as far as _Sophia_[G],
-before the indolent _Lewis_ King of _Hungary_ heard of his March.
-
-At _Mohatz_[H] the young King met _Solyman_’s Army with twenty-five
-thousand Men, and by ill Persuasion gave Battle on the 29th of
-_October_ 1528, and his Army was defeated. _Lewis_ endeavouring to make
-his Escape, was smother’d in a Ditch where his Horse had plung’d him.
-
-Solyman did nothing extraordinary in the military Way till the Spring
-1529, When the Fame of his Arms made the strong City _Buda_[I] an
-easy Conquest; for the Inhabitants, struck with in universal Terror,
-abandon’d the Place, and he enter’d the empty _City_ in _Triumph_.
-But the _Citadel_ Was bravely defended by the Governor, _Thomas
-Nadasti_, till the Garrison was reduc’d to three hundred; who seiz’d
-the Governor, to deliver him up to _Solyman_, upon Condition they were
-to march out with Bag and Baggage. But _Solyman_ despising their
-Trachery, order’d his _Janizaries_ to put the Soldiers to Death, and
-dismiss’d the _Governor_ with magnificent Presents, for the Revard of
-his Valour, and Integrity to his Prince.
-
-After the taking of _Buda_, _Solyman_ was resolv’d to penetrate into
-the Heart of _Germany_, and lay siege to the City of[K] _Vienna_, the
-capital City of _Austria_.
-
-In his March he suffer’d his Troops to commit all Sorts of Outrages,
-destroying all the Country with Fire and Sword, even beyond _Vienna_,
-as far as _Lintz_[L]. He encamp’d before the City, _September_ the
-26th, 1529, and invested it, that no Succour could be sent into the
-Town.
-
-He sent word by several Prisoners he had taken, that it was in vain to
-defend their _Walls_ against the vindictive Force that had conquer’d
-_Rhodes_, _Belgrade_ and _Buda_. But receiving no Answer, but _Sallies_
-from the city, he began to plant his _Cannon_, and batter the _Walls_,
-tho’ without Success; for his heavy Cannon, with the Vessels that
-bore them, were sunk in the _Danube_ by the brave _Wolfgang Hoder_,
-Commander of the Grand Duke’s Galleys. This unexpected Misfortune
-gave _Solyman_, not only Uneasiness, but Terror, which was augmented
-by Reports, that all the Powers of _Germany_ were marching to protect
-_Vienna_.
-
-In every Assault he seem’d to have the worst; all his _Mines_ were
-_countermined_, and blown up, with considerable _Bodies_ of his best
-_Troops_.
-
-He therefore rais’d the Siege, with this Pretence, That _he did not
-come to besiege_ Vienna, _but to meet with_ Ferdinand _King of_
-Hungary, _to fight with him for his Dominions_.
-
-The following Year he _circumcised_[M] his three Sons, _Mustapha_, that
-he had by a _Circassian_[N] Slave, _Mahomet_ and _Selimus_, by two
-other Slaves of the _Seraglio_[O].
-
-In the Year 1532 _Solyman_ made another Expedition into _Hungary_: He
-invested[P] _Guntz_; but it was so well defended by its Governor, the
-valiant _Nicholas Turischitz_, that Solyman abandon’d the Siege.
-
-Solyman by long Marches, sate down before _Gratz_[Q], but hearing of
-a powerful Army headed by _Charles_ V, and _Ferdinand_ his Brother,
-he thought fit to march back to _Constantinople_, after the Loss of a
-great Number of Troops, commanded by _Bassa Fereses_, and _Cæsan_.
-
-In the Year 1514, _Solyman_ sent _Barbarossa_ the _Pyrate_, then in
-league with him, to invade _Africa_, where he did much mischief both
-in Africa, and the Sea-coasts of _Italy_, and the _Islands_ of the
-_Mediterranean_. He after conquer’d the Kingdom of[R] _Tunis_ and by
-his Arts as well as Arms caus’d himself to be proclaim’d King.
-
-Solyman, by the Persuasion of _Ibrahim Bassa_, this Year undertook
-his War against _Persia_, attended by his Son _Mustapha_, now about
-thirteen Years of Age, where he first trod in the Paths of War. The
-Rendezvous of the Army was at the City of _Nice_[S]
-
-From thence he dispatch’d _Ibrahim_ and _Ulemas_ with a strong Army
-to ravage _Syria_, where they took _Tauris_[T] from King _Damas_ But
-these Generals being advertiz’d of great Preparations against them,
-inform’d _Solyman_ of it, who came to their Relief with the utmost
-Expedition.
-
-As _Solyman_ was in his March to meet the Enemy, being encamp’d in a
-vast Plain, there rose such a violent Storm in the Night of Rain, Hail
-and Snow, from the adjacent Mountains, that Men and Beasts of Carriage
-were smother’d, many of the Soldiers perish’d to death in their Tents,
-even _Solyman_’s Pavilion was near being wash’d away. The superstitious
-Soldiers imagin’d it was a Storm rais’d by the _Magicians_ of _Persia_,
-and murmur’d at a War as waged against Heaven, expeding in the Dark
-(for the Storm had extinguish’d all their Fires) the Enemy would come
-upon them, and destroy them all; but the approaching Day dissipated
-that Fear with the End of the Storm.
-
-The next Day _Solyman_ march’d towards _Babylon_[U], whose Governor
-being fled for Fear, (not being provided for a Siege) the City was
-peaceably surrender’d to him.
-
-He then proceeded to retake _Tauris_, that _Damas_ had recover’d from
-the _Turks_; but _Damas_ fled at the Approach of _Solyman_, which so
-much enrag’d him (because he could not bring him to a Battle) that he
-gave that opulent City to the Plunder of his Soldiers.
-
-As _Solyman_ was continuing his March to destroy the Country, a Party
-of _Damas_’s Horse, commanded by _Delimonthes_, one of his Generals,
-set upon the Rear of _Solyman_’s Army (who was some Leagues before ’em)
-in the Night, and made a prodigious Slaughter.
-
-This Overthrow grieved _Solyman_ sorely, insomuch that he order’d
-his Army to return, very much disgusted with _Ibrahim Bassa_, that
-advis’d him to this Expedition.
-
-This Disgust was heighten’d by _Roxolana_, because _Ibrahim_ was in
-_Mustapha_’s Interest, which was contrary to her own.
-
-Solyman had given his Oath and Promise to _Ibrahim_, he should never
-be kill’d while he liv’d. But inviting him to a solemn Supper, he that
-Night had his Throat cut while he slept; _Solyman_ pretending he had
-not broke his Oath, because he was kill’d while he slept.
-
-Now _Mustapha_ began to be a Follower of _Mars_, and perform’d so many
-noble Acts, that he was the only Joy of his Father, who intended him
-his Successor.
-
-The ambitious _Roxolana_, alarm’d at the tender Love _Solyman_ bore
-_Mustapha_, was resolv’d to ruin him in his favour; she therefore by
-an Over-praise first made the _Sultan_ believe, she had an entire
-Affection for him, that she might better work her Design upon him.
-
-She would by a vile Insinuation, tell the Sultan, how happy he was in a
-Son, so brave and valiant, that had gain’d the Hearts of all the prime
-Men in the Empire, as well as the entire Love of the Soldiers; hinting
-that it was well _Mustapha_’s Duty, and Love to his Father, would
-prevent his making a wrong use of it, throwing in by-the-by, that many
-Sons had murder’d their Fathers to get their Thrones.
-
-These Speeches, often back’d by _Rustan_, the Grand Vizir, and the
-Mufti, (the Pope of the Turks) began to alarm _Solyman_, whose Weakness
-made him forget by Degrees the amiable Qualities of _Mustapha_. This
-Opinion was strengthen’d by his secret League with the _Persian_, whom
-the _Turks_ esteem as _Hereticks_, preferring _Hali_ before _Mahomet_
-their Prophet, which Difference may be compar’d to the _Protestant_ and
-_Catholick_ Religions.
-
-Solyman had four Sons by _Roxolana_, _Mahomet_, _Selimus_, (who after
-succeeded his Father) _Bajazet_ and _Tzianger_, (whom our Author calls
-Zanger).
-
-Zanger had contracted a strict Union of Love and Friendship with
-_Mustapha_, and _Roxolana_ lov’d _Zanger_ beyond her other Sons.
-
-But not being the _Sultana Queen_[W], that is, not wedded to the
-_Sultan_, she fear’d the more, that at the Death of _Solyman_,
-_Mustapha_ would be Emperor, and then, as the Custom was among the
-_Turks_, when they a ascend the Throne, the whole Blood that were Males
-would he put to Death.
-
-Mustapha was by her Desire sent to _Caramania_[X], that she might
-pursue her Designs to his Ruin.
-
-The first thing she had to do was to prevail on the Emperor to wed
-her; for being his Queen, would effectually disinherit (as we say)
-_Mustapha_.
-
-To bring this about, she took it in her head to be very religious,
-built an Hospital, and a Church. When these were finih’d, she ask’d the
-_Mufti_ if such Acts of Charity would not be grateful to Heaven! and be
-a Means to save her precious Soul! The good Mufti (receiving a Bribe
-before-hand, for there is Bribery and Corruption in _Turkey_ as well as
-other Places) reply’d, her Soul would not be a Grain the better for it,
-because she was a Slave.
-
-This afflicted the good _Roxolana_ in a surprising manner; She would
-not take any Nourishment; her Eyes were ever in Tears, and her Heart
-heav’d with Sighs every Moment (I mean when she was in the Presence of
-_Solyman_.)
-
-The good Emperor (for he lov’d her sincerely) could not bear to see her
-Tears, therefore order’d her to be made free.
-
-When this Part of her Plot had succeded she put on all her Charms
-again, and seem’d the most satisfy’d happy Lady in the World.
-
-In a few Days after her Manumission, the _Emperor_ sent his chief
-_Eunuch_, to fetch her to his _Bed-Chamber_: The pious Lady came, but
-with Hands up-lifted, with an _Alcoran_ held fast between them, told
-the Emperor, she could not be so happy to partake of the Honour of his
-Bed now she was no more a Slave, but she would consult the Mufti, and
-if he could dispense with it, she would with the utmost Joy comply.
-
-The _Mufti_, who knew what he was to do, declar’d she could never enter
-_Mahomet_’s _Paradise_, if she yielded to the Emperor’s Desires without
-being his Wife.
-
-The Emperor, well satisfy’d with the _Mufti_’s Answer, had the
-Marriage-Rites perform’d, and gave her 5000 _Sultana_’s for her pearly
-Dowry.
-
-Being satisfy’d so far, she now proceeded to procure the Death of
-_Mustapha_. She got counterfeit Letters convey’d to the Sultan, that
-shew’d that _innocent_ Prince in a _false_ and _guilty_ Light.
-
-But this not having the quick Effect she wish’d, she endeavour’d to cut
-him off by Poison, but to no purpose, for he escap’d the Trap. She at
-last procur’d a Letter that _Mustapha_ was contracted to the Daughter
-of the King of _Persia_.
-
-This wrought so much upon _Solyman_, that he dwelt no longer upon the
-Ruin of his Son.
-
-In order to this he sent _Ruftan_ with an Army to fetch his Son. But
-finding the Prince prepar’d for him, he return’d, told _Solyman_, he
-was so belov’d by the Army he commanded, that he thought it Prudence to
-return as he went.
-
-This so inrag’d the Emperor, that he went in Person with an Army
-to _Aleppo_[Y], where he sent for the _unfortunate Prince_; and
-notwithstanding he was forewarn’d of his Danger, yet he resolv’d to
-pay Obedience to his Father’s Commands. When he was near the City the
-crafty _Rustan_ sent several great Officers with the _Janizaries_ to
-meet him, and then insinuated to the Emperor the Love the People bore
-him in going in Crouds to meet him.
-
-Mustapha approach’d his Father’s Tent with few of his Followers: At
-the Entrance he threw by his Dagger, as the Custom is when any Person
-enters the Tent of the _Sultan_.
-
-When he had enter’d the inmost Part of the Pavilion, he found but a
-single _Sofa_ to sit on, which he took for an ill Omen. An Attendant
-coming in, he ask’d where the Emperor was, who reply’d he would see
-him presently. The _Prince_ was melancholy, well knowing his Death was
-approaching; and a few Moments after, the Mutes enter’d and strangled
-him. The Emperor himself, through another Part of the Tent, beheld the
-fatal Spectacle.
-
-He was so hopeful a Prince, that the Turks, even to this Day, often
-say, _Gietti Sultan Mustapha_, that is, _Our Hope is lost in_ Mustapha.
-
-When the cruel Murder was perform’d, the Emperor met _Zanger_ at the
-Door of the Pavilion, enquiring for his dear _Mustapha_! The Emperor
-bid him enter to the inward Tent, and he would find him.
-
-But when the noble _Zanger_ saw him breathless, he cry’d out to hit
-unnatural _Father_; _How could it enter into thy cruel Heart to murder
-so sweet a Prince!_ Then drawing a Ponyard from his Side, plung’d it in
-his Heart, and expir’d upon the breathless Body of his dear Brother.
-
-Thus fell two worthy Princes, that might have grac’d with their Virtue
-and Courage (had they liv’d) the Annals of the _Turkish_ Empire.
-
-When the Troops were acquainted with the Death of _Mustapha_ and
-_Zanger_, they assembled in a tumultuous Manner to avenge his Death:
-_Achmetes_ the Tutor to _Mustapha_ led them on. _Solyman_, to appease
-their Rage, disgrac’d _Rustan_, turn’d him out of all his Posts, and
-conferr’d them on _Achmetes_, with a Promise never to displace him;
-but _Rustan_, assisted by the artful _Roxolana_, procur’d the Death of
-_Achmetes_, and was by the Emperor restor’d to all his former Honours,
-and by him more esteem’d than ever.
-
-Mustapha was so well beloved, that a false _Mustapha_ appear’d, and was
-follow’d by the Malecontents till he had gather’d a powerful Army, But
-the Threats of _Solyman_ intimidated his Troops to such a Degree, that
-they forsook their false General, who was taken Prisoner, and carry’d
-to _Constantinople_, where the Emperor by torture made him confess that
-_Bajazet_, his Son by _Roxolana_, had put him upon the false and fatal
-Enterprize. _Roxolana_ had _Selimus_, another Son, by _Solyman_; and
-after the Death of the two unfortunate Princes _Mustapha_ and _Zanger_,
-the Sultan seem’d most to favour _Selimus_, but _Roxolana_, _Bajazet_.
-But it was with much Difficulty she gain’d his Pardon from the Emperor
-his Father, for his promoting a false _Mustapha_.
-
-Solyman to the last of his Life regretted the Loss of his _Mustapha_
-and _Zanger_. He died of a Consumption after gaining many Victories,
-in the Year 1566, the 14th of _September_, in the 76th Year of his
-Age, and the 46th Year of his Reign. As to his Person; he was of an
-advantageous Height, well made, but pale, his Nose long and hooked,
-more faithful to his Promise than most of his Predecessors, and wanted
-not many Virtues to form a good Prince.
-
-I can’t help ending the Trifle, with congratulating the Author of the
-Play with his Success, which is owing to his Conduct in the Story, the
-many beautiful Sentiments, and the Correctness of his Poetry. I was
-pleas’d the first Night not to find those _Goths_ and _Vandals_, that
-(like stabbing Men in the Dark) assassinate without the least Mercy.

-FOOTNOTES:
-
-[A] _Magnesia_ a City in _Asia_ the Less, _Capital_ of _Caria_, by
-some Authors called _Mangresia_ situated near the celebrated River
-Mæander, from whence it was called Magnesia ad Mæendrum to
-distinguish it from other Cities of the same name. It is situate about
-a Degree (or twenty Leagues) north-east from Symirna and half a Degree
-from the ancient City of Ephesus, famous for the _Temple of Diana_, The
-great General Themistocles was banish’d to _Magnesia_ and died there in
-his Banishment.
-
-[B] _Scutari_, a Town in the _Lesser Asia_, over-agaist
-_Constantinople_, as Southwark is to London, only the _Bosphorus_ is
-thrice at broad between _Scutary_ and _Constantinople_; by some Authors
-supposed to be built out of the Ruins of the ancient Chalcedon.
-
-[C] _Aga_ of the _Janizaries_, that is _General_ of the _first_ warlike
-_Body_ of the _Empire_. In former times, they were composed of the
-_Sons_ of _Christian Slaves_, but now they are augmented in a great
-Body, upwards of an hundred thousand Men, that have by their number
-the disposal of the _Turkish Empire_, and are very willing for a _new_
-Change; for generally the Successor of the Empire, at his ascending the
-throne, gives this body of Troops a Largess or Present, that as soon as
-receiv’d makes them willing to with another Emperor.
-
-[D] _Constantinople_, by the _Turks_ called _Stamboul_, (formerly
-_Byzantium_) took its name from _Constantine_ the _Great_, who himself
-gave it the name of _New Rome_; where he _establish’d a Senate_, with
-every other _Constitution_, according to _ancient Rome_.
-
-[E] _Belgrade_ (the ancient _Alba Græca_) built on the River Save,
-near its Fall into the Danube, is the Capital of _Rascia_, a Province
-of Hungary; it has often chang’d its Masters, though for many ages the
-_Bulwark_ of the _Christians_ against the Othomans. _Amurath_ II. lost
-the best part of his Army before it. His Son _Mahomet_ was forced to
-raise the Siege with infinite loss, by a _Stratagem_ of the heroick
-_John Huniades_. He suffer’d a large Body of the Enemy to enter the
-Town, who immediately fell to plundering; in the mean time, he made a
-Tally upon the remaining Troops without, and put them to flight; then
-turning their own Cannon on the Plunderers, forced them to abandon the
-City, leaving their Tents, Baggage, Provision, and Ammunition behind
-them. In the Year 1521, it was taken by this _Solyman_, after a furious
-Siege of two Months. It remain’d in the hands of the _Othomans_, till
-the Year 1688, when the Imperialists took it by storm; fix hundred
-Christian Slaves were chain’d together, and by the _Turks_ placed in
-a rank before them, who by that means secured themselves, as well as
-Christians from the furious Attacks of the _Germans_. It was retaken by
-the _Turks_ two Years after, by an accidental _Bomb_ falling into their
-_Magazine_ of Powder, that near half the Garrison were destroy’d, with
-the Fortifications of the City. Pope _Leo_ X. made it a Bishoprick.
-
-[F] _Rhodes_ (Rhodus) is an _Island_ in the _Mediterranean_ Sea, near
-fifty Leagues in compass; the _Capital_ City, that _Solyman_ besieg’d,
-takes its name from the _Island_. _Rhodes_ was once famous for a mighty
-_Colossus_ dedicated to the Sun, of such a monstrous size that Vessels
-_sail’d_ in _the Harbour_ between its Legs: it was seventy Cubits high.
-The Brass of this Statue, (after it was thrown down by an Earthquake)
-loaded seventy-two Camels, and was transported to _Alexandria_ in
-_Egypt_, when it was taken by _Muhavia_ the Sultan. _Rhodes_ is
-seated seven Leagues from the nearest Coast of _Asia_ to the South,
-forty-seven from _Candi_ (another Island in the _Mediterranean_, made
-famous by the Poets by the name of _Crete_) to the North-East, and a
-hundred and sixty Leagues from _Constantinople_ to the South. It was
-first peopled by _Javan_, the Grandson of _Japhet_, before any part
-of _Greece_ was inhabited: in a few ages after, the _Phœnicians_
-(famous for spreading Traffic over the World that was then known)
-possess’d it. It was made a _Roman Province_ by _Vespasian_. In 654 it
-was taken by the _Saracens_: in 1124 it was conquer’d by _Venetians_
-it was taken in the Year 1227 by _John Ducas_, _Admiral_ of the
-_Greeks_: in 1283, it fell with all lesser _Asia_ into the hands of
-the _Othomans_: in 1310, it was taken (after a four Years Siege) by
-the Knights of St. _John_ of _Jerusalem_, under _Fulk Villers_, an
-_Englishman_, afterwards _Grand Master_ of the _Order_. It was vainly
-attempted twice by _Mahomet_ II; till taken by Treachery by _Solyman_
-the Magnificent. The _Knights_ of _Rhodes_ retir’d to _Sicily_; till
-the Year 1530, _Charles_ V. gave them the Grant of the _Island_ of
-_Malta_, where they have flourish’d ever since, often checking the
-Insults of the _Turkish_ maritime Power.
-
-[G] _Sophia_, the _Capital_ City of _Bulgaria_, a _Province_ of
-_Hungary_, now in the hands of the _Othomans_. (The Turks are called
-_Othomans_, from _Othoman_, the _first_ Founder of their _Empire_.)
-’Tis seated on the River _Ciabrum_. It is famous for a General Council
-that met in the Year 347, which condemn’d the Proceedings of the
-Council of _Nice_, a City of _Bythinia_, that met in the year 325.
-There it another City of that name in _Provence_.
-
-[H] _Mohatz_, a strong Town in Lower _Hungary_ upon the _Danube_.
-
-[I] _Buda_ is the Capital of the Kingdom of _Hungary_ formerly a rich
-and strong City, before it fell into the hands of the _Othomans_, who
-deftroy’d most of the stately Edifices: it lies on the west of the
-River Danube over-against the Town of _Peste_ and join’d to it by a
-Bridge of Boats, the Stream being too rapid, and wide to admit of any
-other. In the year 1179 Pope _Nicholas_ III, and _Ladislaus_ King of
-_Hungary_ held a _Council_ here. It is divided in two _Parts_, the
-_Upper_ and the _Lower_; in the Lower Town there are now many _Baths_,
-both _cold_ and _hot_, very finely adorn’d by the _Turks_ to perform
-their _Abdest_ or _Washing_, before they enter their _Mosques_ or
-Places of Devotion. It was taken by this _Solyman_ 1526, and retaken
-by _Ferdinand_ Archduke Of _Austria_ 1527; _Solyman_ retook it again
-1529, after the Garrison had bravely defended it in _eleven_ vigorous
-Assaults. Ferdinand in 1541 attack’d it, when the Siege was raised by
-our _Solyman_. It was twice besieg’d by the Christians without success
-in 1598, and in 1601: in 1680 the Duke of _Lorrain_ besieg’d it without
-success; but in 1686 took it by storm, after a noble Defence, tho’
-an Army of fifty thousand _Turks_ look’d on. The Duke found there
-the famous Library of the _Hungarian Kings_, inlarg’d by_ Matthias
-Corvinus_, entire, which he transported to _Vienna_; four hundred
-pieces of Cannon and Mortars, three hundred thousand gold Ducats,
-besides many rich Vessels of Gold and Silver, magnificent Furniture,
-and other valuable things.
-
-[K] _Vienna_, the Capital of Germany, seated on the Danube, circled
-by that River, as _Shrewsbury_ is by the _Severn_, it is one of
-the largest Cities in _Germany_, as well as the strongest, and the
-Residence of the Emperor.
-
-[L] _Lintz_, a _Capital City_ of the Upper _Austria_, built upon
-the _Danube_, with a handsome _Bridge_ over _that river_; ’tis a
-well-fortified, strong, and populous place. The _Emperor_ has a
-_castle_ for Pleasure, where he often retires from Business. It stands
-about thirty Miles from _Vienna_.
-
-[M] _Circumcision_ is not one of the _five Points_ which makes a
-true _Mohametan_, but by Tradition brought from the _Arabians_. The
-_Othomans_ never perform this Ceremony, till the male Child is upwards
-of seven Years old. The Operator is a Surgeon. When the Child is
-recover’d of his Wound, he is placed on horseback, and led through
-the chief Streets of the Town, attended by the _Iman_ (or _Priest_)
-with Children of its own Age. Till the Child is perfectly cured, the
-Parents make a great Feast, inviting their Relations and Acquaintance
-to partake of their Mirth. Grown People, or those that turn from the
-Christian Religion (called Renegadoes) ride in triumph, with a Dart in
-their left Hand, the Point directed to their left _Breast_, to signify
-they would sooner have it thrust thro’ their Heart, than renounce that
-Faiths being in the nature of Baptism with the Christians.
-
-[N] _Circassia_ is a Province that extends from the _Bosphorus_ to the
-_Eastern_ Shore of the _Euxine Sea_, famous for its beautiful Women;
-and the _Seraglio_ is generally filled with them for the service of the
-Emperor.
-
-[O] The _Seraglio_ is the _Emperor’s Palace_, with large Gardens
-bordering on the _Bosphorus_, the Sea that parts _Constantinople_ in
-_Europe_, and _Scutari_ in _Asia_. There the Emperor’s Women are kept,
-each in favour having their particular Apartments, being generally
-attended by _black Eunuchs_, and those of the most deformed sort. The
-young Slaves are also brought up here in a large Apartment, near the
-Gate of the _Seraglio_ and though the Sons of Slaves often rise to the
-highest Posts in the Empire; for in _Turkey_ Birth is seldom regarded,
-but the greatest Merit rises to the highest Post, contrary to the Rules
-of other Nations, where _Bribes_ and _Favour_ promote the Worthless. At
-the age of twelve they are taken from the _Seraglio_, and employ’d in
-Business according to their Capacity.
-
-[P] _Guntz_, a small Town, situate upon a River of the same name in
-_Lower Hungary_.
-
-[Q] _Gratz_, the Capital City of _Stiria_; it stands upon the River
-_Mure_, twenty Miles from _Vienna_ to the South.
-
-[R] _Tunis_, the _Capital_ of a Country of the same name, is a large
-City, five Miles in circumference. It a noble Port on the Coast of
-_Barbary_, upon the _Mediterranean_, about eight Leagues from old
-_Carthage_, the Birth-place of the famous _Hannibal_. This City has had
-more Revolutions and Masters than any City in the Universe: but since
-1570 it has remain’d in the possession of Kings of their own, till the
-Line was extinct; and is now govern’d by a Bey as a Commonwealth, under
-the Protection of the _Turk_.
-
-[S] _Nice_, the Capital of _Bythinia_, (the old _Antigonia_.) This
-City is remarkable for that famous _Council_ held against _Arianism_,
-relating to the time of celebrating _Easter_ among the Christians,
-with some Points of Church-Discipline, in the Imperial Palace of
-_Constantine_ the _Great_, in the Year 325 of Christianity. There was
-another design’d in the Year 359, but prevented by a sudden Earthquake,
-which destroy’d a great part of the City. There was another Council
-assembled in the Year 787, made up of three hundred and fifty Bishops.
-_Nice_ was taken by _Godfrey_ of _Boloigne_ in his way to _Jerusalem_
-in order to commence the Holy War, that cost so many thousand Lives,
-and drain’d the Purses of almost all _Europe_.
-
-[T] _Tauris_ (the old _Ecbatana_) the second City in the _Kingdom_ of
-_Persia_, situated about thirty Miles from the _Caspian Sea_. In 849
-it was deftroy’d by an Earthquake, very frequent in those mountainous
-Countries. It underwent several Revolutions between the _Turks_ and
-_Persians_, but now it remains in the hands of the famous _Kouli Kan_.
-
-[U] _Babylon_ (or _Bagdat_ by the _Turks_ and _Persians_) is a City
-celebrated in _sacred_ and _profane History_. It is built upon the
-Banks of the famous River _Euphrates_, that had its spring from
-_Paradise_ itself. It is said the Builder was _Nimrod_, the Grandchild
-of _Noah_. The Walls were formerly forty-eight Miles in compass, and so
-broad that two Chariots might pass each other. _Alexander_ in one of
-his Victories made this Conquest, and in this City, Death put a slop to
-all his Glories, and from seeking to be Master of the World, he only
-found a Grave. _Grand Cairo_ in Egypt is founded on another _Babylon_;
-from whence St. _Peter_ wrote his first _Epistle_. This City is built
-upon the Banks of the famous River _Nile_, whose overflowings inriches
-the Earth without Tillage.
-
-[W] _Sultana Queen_. The _Turkish Emperors_ have avoided Marriage,
-fearing any Change of Government might bring their _Queens_ to Infamy
-and Disgrace; ever since _Tamerlane_ took _Bajazet_’s Wife _Arpasia_
-Prisoner, and the more to insult _Bajazet_, forced _Arpasia_ to wait
-naked at his Table.
-
-[X] _Caramania_, a Province in _Lesser Asia_, over-against the _Island_
-of _Cyprus_. It formerly had _Princes_ of its own, but it has been
-many Ages subject to the _Turks_. It includes the ancient Provinces of
-_Cilicia_, _Pamphylia_, and part of _Caria_.
-
-[Y] _Aleppo_, a _City_ of _Syria_, built upon the River _Marsya_, which
-falls into the _Euphrates_, is a very large Town, six miles in compass,
-the greatest Place for Trade in all _Asia_. The _English_, _French_,
-_Dutch_, and _Venetians_, have consuls always residing there.

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

-<span class="smcap">Mustapha</span> his Son.</h2>
-
-<p class="noindent"><span class="dropcap">A</span>S the Town has been so agreeably
-entertain’d with the Tragedy of
-Mustapha, written by the celebrated
-Author of <span class="smcap">Eurydice</span>, and
-other valuable Pieces, I think it will not be
-amiss to give a short Account of the Life
-and Actions of <i>Solyman</i>, the Father of <i>Mustapha</i>,
-mix’d with those of that unfortunate Prince,
-who gives Title to the Play.<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_2" id="Page_2">(2)</a></span></p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> the Magnificent, (Father to
-<i>Mustapha</i>, by a beautiful <i>Circassian</i> Slave,
-and <i>Tzianger</i>, by the ambitious <i>Roxolana</i>)
-was one of the most potent Princes of the
-<i>Othoman Race</i>: He was the Son of <i>Selimus</i>,
-who died in the midst of his Victories,
-upon the Road to Adrianople, of a <i>Cancer</i>
-in his Reins, in September 1520, when
-<i>Charles</i> V. was Emperor of <i>Germany</i>, <i>Henry</i>
-VIII. King of <i>England</i>, <i>Francis</i> I. King
-of France, <i>James</i> V. King of <i>Scotland</i>,
-and <i>Leo</i> X. Pope of Rome.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">At</span> the Time of his Father’s Death,
-<i>Solyman</i> was at <i>Magnesia</i><a name="FNanchor_A_1" id="FNanchor_A_1"></a><a href="#Footnote_A_1" class="fnanchor">(A)</a>, and receiving
-Notice of his Father’s Death from <i>Ferhates
-Bassa</i>, only, (as <i>Selimus</i> his Father had formerly
-attempted to poison him, fearing his
-amiable Qualities) gave little Credit to the
-Information: But when he received the
-Confirmation from <i>Pyrrhus</i>, and <i>Mustapha</i>,
-<i>Bassas</i> at Adrianople, he ventur’d to
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_3" id="Page_3">(3)</a></span>Scutari<a name="FNanchor_B_2" id="FNanchor_B_2"></a><a href="#Footnote_B_2" class="fnanchor">(B)</a>, where he was met by the <i>Aga</i> of
-the <i>Janizaries</i><a name="FNanchor_C_3" id="FNanchor_C_3"></a><a href="#Footnote_C_3" class="fnanchor">(C)</a>, and Numbers of the
-People, (yet ignorant of the Death of <i>Selimus</i>)
-from whence he was conducted over
-to <i>Constantinople</i><a name="FNanchor_D_4" id="FNanchor_D_4"></a><a href="#Footnote_D_4" class="fnanchor">(D)</a>, where the Body of the
-<i>Janizaries</i> were prepar’d on the Shore to
-meet him.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> Moment he landed, the <i>Aga</i> cry’d
-with a loud Voice, <i>Behold</i> your <i>Emperor</i>
-<span class="smcap">Solyman</span>! The <i>Janizaries</i>, transported
-with Joy, reply’d with one Voice, Long live
-<span class="smcap">Solyman</span>, our great Emperor!</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> was in his Twentieth Year,
-when he was first seated in the Turkish
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">(4)</a></span><i>Throne</i>; and for several Years reign’d as a
-<i>benign Prince</i>. But being corrupted by the
-Artifices of <i>Roxolana</i>, and the impious Designs
-of <i>Rustan</i> his Grand Vizir, who wedded
-a Daughter of <i>Roxolana</i>’s, began to dip
-his Hands in Blood.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">However</span> he perform’d many glorious
-Actions at the Head of his own Armies.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> first Year of his Reign, he took
-from <i>Lewis</i> King of <i>Hungary</i>, a peaceable
-Prince, the strong City of <i>Belgrade</i><a name="FNanchor_E_5" id="FNanchor_E_5"></a><a href="#Footnote_E_5" class="fnanchor">(E)</a>.</p>
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">(5)</a></span></p>
-<p><span class="smcap">He</span> afterwards turn’d his Arms against
-the City of <i>Rhodes</i>. I shall be something
-particular in this Siege, because our Countrymen
-had a hand in bravely defending the place.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> was not present at the first
-investing of<a name="FNanchor_F_6" id="FNanchor_F_6"></a><a href="#Footnote_F_6" class="fnanchor">(F)</a> <i>Rhodes</i>; but his Troops being
-often beat by the Besieged, and losing
-above forty Thousand of his Soldiers, (tho’
-the <i>Rhodians</i> were not six Thousand fighting
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_6" id="Page_6">(6)</a></span>Men) be repair’d to the Camp to encourage his Troops.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> Emperor’s Arrival gave new life
-to his fainting Army; and perceiving the
-<i>English</i> Bulwark annoy’d him most, sprung
-a Mine, that blew many a brave <i>Englishman</i>
-to Immortality.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> Turks upon this Success, with loud
-Shouts attack’d the Breach; but the Grand
-Master, <i>Philip Vellinus</i>, at the Head of the
-remaining <i>English</i>, repuls’d them, with the
-Loss of two Thousand <i>Janizaries</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> Cannon of the Besieged did great
-Execution among the <i>Turks</i>, and their being
-often repuls’d, gave <i>Solyman</i> but little
-Hopes of gaining the City by Force; for
-even the Women of all Degrees threw down
-Stones from the Battlements on the Heads
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_7" id="Page_7">(7)</a></span>of the Besiegers, when they came to scale
-their Walls.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span>, after musing alone in his
-Tent, sent for all his chief Commanders,
-and told them he would make one general
-Assault; and if the City was taken, the
-Troops should be rewarded with the Plunder.</p>
-
-<p>A poor Christian Slave hearing the Proclamation
-to the Troops, found Means to
-let the <i>Rhodians</i> know of <i>Solyman</i>’s Design
-for the next Day.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> <i>Grand Master</i> (at this Notice) prepar’d
-every thing to oppose them.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> next Morning before Break of Day,
-the <i>Turks</i> attack’d the City with loud <i>Tecbirs</i>,
-or Shouts of <i>Onset</i>, in five several
-Places at once with fifty Thousand Men.
-The Enemy was repuls’d with great Slaughter
-from the <i>English</i> and <i>Italian</i> Quarter. But
-in the mean time <i>Mustapha</i> Bassa, and <i>Achmetes</i>
-Bassa, attack’d the <i>Spanish</i> Bulwark,
-(whose Defenders were three parts gone to
-assist the <i>Italian</i> and <i>English</i>) and soon became
-Masters of it.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">But</span> the <i>Grand Master</i>, with several
-Knights of the Order, retook it again, after<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_8" id="Page_8">(8)</a></span>
-an obstinate Defence, with the Death of all
-the <i>Turks</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">This</span> Success gave new Life to the <i>Rhodians</i>,
-who every where repuls’d their Enemies.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> on a neighbouring Hill saw
-all with the utmost Vexation of Mind, and
-seeing no Hope of Success, order’d a Retreat
-to be sounded: The harrass’d Troops
-retir’d to their Camp, leaving above twenty
-Thousand of their Fellows lifeless behind
-them, as a Token of the Valour of their
-Enemies.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">This</span> ill Success so provok’d <i>Solyman</i>, that
-he gave Orders that <i>Mustapha Bassa</i> should
-immediately be put to death, tho’ he had
-done all in the Assault a wise and brave General
-could do.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Pyrrhus</span> <i>Bassa</i> hearing of this severe
-Command, notwithstanding <i>Solyman</i>’s Rage,
-went to intercede for him; but his Rage
-continuing, he order’d <i>Pyrrhus</i> to undergo
-the same Fate.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> rest of his Council fell at his Feet
-to hinder so cruel a Command, some begging
-to suffer with them, vowing never to
-rise till their honest Suit was granted.</p>
-
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_9" id="Page_9">(9)</a></span></p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> Emperor’s Passion at last subsiding,
-he pardon’d <i>Mustapha</i> and <i>Pyrrhus</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">However</span>, his Admiral, because he could
-not prevent the Relief that came by Sea into
-the Town, did not fare quite so well. He
-was order’d to receive the Bastinado (or
-Scourging) as a common Slave, on board
-his own Galley, and had been put to death,
-but for the Persuasion of <i>Achmetes Bassa</i>,
-who had a great Influence over <i>Solyman</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> <i>Emperor’s</i> ill Success began to make
-him turn his Thoughts from the Siege, tho’
-with the utmost Reluctance; to see the Course
-of his victorious Arms stopp’d by a handful
-of Men, was what his ambitious Soul could
-not bear.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">He</span> summon’d another Council of War
-of all his grand Officers, where, after many
-Debates, he was persuaded to continue the
-Siege, and by the Strength of their Vows
-and Promises to conquer, he began to build
-him a Palace on the Brow of Mount <i>Philermus</i>,
-where from the Battlements he
-could take a View of what was done in the
-City of <i>Rhodes</i>. But the Gross of the <i>Turkish</i>
-Army murmur’d at the Continuance
-of the Siege, shot Letters upon the Heads<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_10" id="Page_10">(10)</a></span>
-of Arrows frequently into the Town discovering
-every thing that was done in
-Council, with Promise of the Revolt of
-<i>Mustapha Bassa</i> for the ill Usage he had receiv’d
-from the Emperor <i>Solyman</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">But</span> notwithstanding the Valour of the
-<i>Rhodians</i>, (who twice more repuls’d the <i>Othomans</i>
-with great Slaughter) they began to
-want every thing that was necessary: And
-by eager Persuasions of the Inhabitants that
-had Families in the City, he was prevail’d
-upon to send an Embassy to <i>Solyman</i>, tho’
-not before the <i>Turks</i> had gain’d two hundred
-Paces in Breadth, and a hundred and fifty
-in Length, within the outward Wall.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">When</span> the <i>Ambassador</i> came before <i>Solyman</i>,
-he demanded the immediate Surrender
-of the City; and if the <i>Rhodians</i> would
-trust his Clemency, now, without farther
-Hostilities, their Lives, Estates and Freedoms
-should be safe.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> imagining these Promises
-would prevail upon the harrass’d <i>Rhodians</i>,
-sent a Letter to the same purpose to be read
-in publick to them by a <i>Genoese</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">When</span> the Letter was read, the Grand
-Master was of the opinion to hold out the
-Siege to the last: But a <i>Greek Priest</i>, with<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_11" id="Page_11">(11)</a></span>
-Tears running down his Cheeks, begg’d
-he would prevent the final Destruction of so
-many innocent People; at the same time
-praising the Clemency of <i>Solyman</i> to those
-that yielded to his Arms.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">He</span> was constrain’d to comply with their
-Desires, and surrender’d the City to the
-Emperor, who enter’d in Triumph on the
-25th of <i>December</i> 1522.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">In</span> the Year 1526, <i>Solyman</i> turn’d his
-Arms against <i>Hungary</i>, with an Army of
-two hundred thousand Men, and advanc’d
-as far as <i>Sophia</i><a name="FNanchor_G_7" id="FNanchor_G_7"></a><a href="#Footnote_G_7" class="fnanchor">(G)</a>, before the indolent <i>Lewis</i>
-King of <i>Hungary</i> heard of his March.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">At</span> <i>Mohatz</i><a name="FNanchor_H_8" id="FNanchor_H_8"></a><a href="#Footnote_H_8" class="fnanchor">(H)</a> the young King met <i>Solyman</i>’s
-Army with twenty-five thousand
-Men, and by ill Persuasion gave Battle on the
-29th of <i>October</i> 1528, and his Army was
-defeated. <i>Lewis</i> endeavouring to make his
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_12" id="Page_12">(12)</a></span>Escape, was smother’d in a Ditch where his
-Horse had plung’d him.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> did nothing extraordinary in
-the military Way till the Spring 1529, When
-the Fame of his Arms made the strong City
-<i>Buda</i><a name="FNanchor_I_9" id="FNanchor_I_9"></a><a href="#Footnote_I_9" class="fnanchor">(I)</a> an easy Conquest; for the Inhabitants,
-struck with in universal Terror, abandon’d
-the Place, and he enter’d the empty
-<i>City</i> in <i>Triumph</i>. But the <i>Citadel</i> Was bravely
-defended by the Governor, <i>Thomas Nadasti</i>,
-till the Garrison was reduc’d to three hundred;
-who seiz’d the Governor, to deliver

-
-<p><span class="smcap">After</span> the taking of <i>Buda</i>, <i>Solyman</i> was

-the capital City of <i>Austria</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">In</span> his March he suffer’d his Troops to

-<i>Vienna</i>, as far as <i>Lintz</i><a name="FNanchor_L_11" id="FNanchor_L_11"></a><a href="#Footnote_L_11" class="fnanchor">(L)</a>. He encamp’d

-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_14" id="Page_14">(14)</a></span>1529, and invested it, that no Succour could

-
-<p><span class="smcap">He</span> sent word by several Prisoners he had

-<i>Walls</i> against the vindictive Force that had
-conquer’d <i>Rhodes</i>, <i>Belgrade</i> and <i>Buda</i>. But
-receiving no Answer, but <i>Sallies</i> from the
-city, he began to plant his <i>Cannon</i>, and
-batter the <i>Walls</i>, tho’ without Success; for
-his heavy Cannon, with the Vessels that bore
-them, were sunk in the <i>Danube</i> by the brave
-<i>Wolfgang Hoder</i>, Commander of the Grand
-Duke’s Galleys. This unexpected Misfortune
-gave <i>Solyman</i>, not only Uneasiness, but

-
-<p><span class="smcap">In</span> every Assault he seem’d to have the

-
-<p><span class="smcap">He</span> therefore rais’d the Siege, with this

-
-<p><span class="smcap">In</span> the Year 1532 <i>Solyman</i> made another

-<i>Guntz</i>; but it was so well defended by its

-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> by long Marches, sate down

-to <i>Constantinople</i>, after the Loss of a great
-Number of Troops, commanded by <i>Bassa
-Fereses</i>, and <i>Cæsan</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">In</span> the Year 1514, <i>Solyman</i> sent <i>Barbarossa</i>
-the <i>Pyrate</i>, then in league with him,
-to invade <i>Africa</i>, where he did much mischief
-both in Africa, and the Sea-coasts of
-<i>Italy</i>, and the <i>Islands</i> of the <i>Mediterranean</i>.
-He after conquer’d the Kingdom of<a name="FNanchor_R_17" id="FNanchor_R_17"></a><a href="#Footnote_R_17" class="fnanchor">(R)</a> <i>Tunis</i>
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_17" id="Page_17">(17)</a></span>and by his Arts as well as Arms caus’d
-himself to be proclaim’d King.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span>, by the Persuasion of <i>Ibrahim
-Bassa</i>, this Year undertook his War against
-<i>Persia</i>, attended by his Son <i>Mustapha</i>, now
-about thirteen Years of Age, where he first
-trod in the Paths of War. The Rendezvous
-of the Army was at the City of <i>Nice</i><a name="FNanchor_S_18" id="FNanchor_S_18"></a><a href="#Footnote_S_18" class="fnanchor">(S)</a></p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">From</span> thence he dispatch’d <i>Ibrahim</i> and
-<i>Ulemas</i> with a strong Army to ravage <i>Syria</i>,
-where they took <i>Tauris</i><a name="FNanchor_T_19" id="FNanchor_T_19"></a><a href="#Footnote_T_19" class="fnanchor">(T)</a> from King <i>Damas</i>
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_18" id="Page_18">(18)</a></span>But these Generals being advertiz’d
-of great Preparations against them, inform’d
-<i>Solyman</i> of it, who came to their Relief with
-the utmost Expedition.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">As</span> <i>Solyman</i> was in his March to meet
-the Enemy, being encamp’d in a vast Plain,
-there rose such a violent Storm in the Night
-of Rain, Hail and Snow, from the adjacent
-Mountains, that Men and Beasts of Carriage
-were smother’d, many of the Soldiers
-perish’d to death in their Tents, even <i>Solyman</i>’s
-Pavilion was near being wash’d away.
-The superstitious Soldiers imagin’d it was a
-Storm rais’d by the <i>Magicians</i> of <i>Persia</i>, and
-murmur’d at a War as waged against Heaven,
-expeding in the Dark (for the Storm
-had extinguish’d all their Fires) the Enemy
-would come upon them, and destroy them
-all; but the approaching Day dissipated
-that Fear with the End of the Storm.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> next Day <i>Solyman</i> march’d towards
-<i>Babylon</i><a name="FNanchor_U_20" id="FNanchor_U_20"></a><a href="#Footnote_U_20" class="fnanchor">(U)</a>, whose Governor being fled for
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_19" id="Page_19">(19)</a></span>Fear, (not being provided for a Siege) the
-City was peaceably surrender’d to him.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">He</span> then proceeded to retake <i>Tauris</i>, that
-<i>Damas</i> had recover’d from the <i>Turks</i>; but
-<i>Damas</i> fled at the Approach of <i>Solyman</i>,
-which so much enrag’d him (because he
-could not bring him to a Battle) that he
-gave that opulent City to the Plunder of
-his Soldiers.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">As</span> <i>Solyman</i> was continuing his March to
-destroy the Country, a Party of <i>Damas</i>’s
-Horse, commanded by <i>Delimonthes</i>, one of
-his Generals, set upon the Rear of <i>Solyman</i>’s
-Army (who was some Leagues before ’em)
-in the Night, and made a prodigious
-Slaughter.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">This</span> Overthrow grieved <i>Solyman</i> sorely,
-insomuch that he order’d his Army to return,
-very much disgusted with <i>Ibrahim</i>
-<i>Bassa</i>, that advis’d him to this Expedition.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">This</span> Disgust was heighten’d by <i>Roxolana</i>,
-because <i>Ibrahim</i> was in <i>Mustapha</i>’s
-Interest, which was contrary to her own.</p>
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_20" id="Page_20">(20)</a></span></p>
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> had given his Oath and Promise
-to <i>Ibrahim</i>, he should never be kill’d
-while he liv’d. But inviting him to a solemn
-Supper, he that Night had his Throat
-cut while he slept; <i>Solyman</i> pretending he
-had not broke his Oath, because he was
-kill’d while he slept.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Now</span> <i>Mustapha</i> began to be a Follower
-of <i>Mars</i>, and perform’d so many noble Acts,
-that he was the only Joy of his Father, who
-intended him his Successor.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> ambitious <i>Roxolana</i>, alarm’d at the
-tender Love <i>Solyman</i> bore <i>Mustapha</i>, was
-resolv’d to ruin him in his favour; she
-therefore by an Over-praise first made the
-<i>Sultan</i> believe, she had an entire Affection
-for him, that she might better work her
-Design upon him.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">She</span> would by a vile Insinuation, tell the
-Sultan, how happy he was in a Son, so
-brave and valiant, that had gain’d the Hearts
-of all the prime Men in the Empire, as well
-as the entire Love of the Soldiers; hinting
-that it was well <i>Mustapha</i>’s Duty, and Love
-to his Father, would prevent his making a
-wrong use of it, throwing in by-the-by,
-that many Sons had murder’d their Fathers
-to get their Thrones.</p>
-
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_21" id="Page_21">(21)</a></span></p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">These</span> Speeches, often back’d by <i>Rustan</i>,
-the Grand Vizir, and the Mufti, (the Pope
-of the Turks) began to alarm <i>Solyman</i>, whose
-Weakness made him forget by Degrees the
-amiable Qualities of <i>Mustapha</i>. This Opinion
-was strengthen’d by his secret League
-with the <i>Persian</i>, whom the <i>Turks</i> esteem
-as <i>Hereticks</i>, preferring <i>Hali</i> before <i>Mahomet</i>
-their Prophet, which Difference may
-be compar’d to the <i>Protestant</i> and <i>Catholick</i>
-Religions.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> had four Sons by <i>Roxolana</i>,
-<i>Mahomet</i>, <i>Selimus</i>, (who after succeeded his
-Father) <i>Bajazet</i> and <i>Tzianger</i>, (whom our
-Author calls Zanger).</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Zanger</span> had contracted a strict Union
-of Love and Friendship with <i>Mustapha</i>, and
-<i>Roxolana</i> lov’d <i>Zanger</i> beyond her other
-Sons.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">But</span> not being the <i>Sultana Queen</i><a name="FNanchor_W_21" id="FNanchor_W_21"></a><a href="#Footnote_W_21" class="fnanchor">(W)</a>,
-that is, not wedded to the <i>Sultan</i>, she
-fear’d the more, that at the Death of <i>Solyman</i>,
-<i>Mustapha</i> would be Emperor, and
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_22" id="Page_22">(22)</a></span>then, as the Custom was among the <i>Turks</i>,
-when they a ascend the Throne, the whole
-Blood that were Males would he put to
-Death.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Mustapha</span> was by her Desire sent to
-<i>Caramania</i><a name="FNanchor_X_22" id="FNanchor_X_22"></a><a href="#Footnote_X_22" class="fnanchor">(X)</a>, that she might pursue her Designs
-to his Ruin.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> first thing she had to do was to
-prevail on the Emperor to wed her; for being
-his Queen, would effectually disinherit
-(as we say) <i>Mustapha</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">To</span> bring this about, she took it in her
-head to be very religious, built an Hospital,
-and a Church. When these were finih’d,
-she ask’d the <i>Mufti</i> if such Acts of Charity
-would not be grateful to Heaven! and be a
-Means to save her precious Soul! The good
-Mufti (receiving a Bribe before-hand, for
-there is Bribery and Corruption in <i>Turkey</i> as
-well as other Places) reply’d, her Soul would
-not be a Grain the better for it, because she
-was a Slave.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">This</span> afflicted the good <i>Roxolana</i> in a
-surprising manner; She would not take any
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_23" id="Page_23">(23)</a></span>Nourishment; her Eyes were ever in Tears,
-and her Heart heav’d with Sighs every Moment
-(I mean when she was in the Presence
-of <i>Solyman</i>.)</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> good Emperor (for he lov’d her
-sincerely) could not bear to see her Tears,
-therefore order’d her to be made free.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">When</span> this Part of her Plot had succeded
-she put on all her Charms again, and
-seem’d the most satisfy’d happy Lady in the
-World.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">In</span> a few Days after her Manumission,
-the <i>Emperor</i> sent his chief <i>Eunuch</i>, to fetch
-her to his <i>Bed-Chamber</i>: The pious Lady
-came, but with Hands up-lifted, with an
-<i>Alcoran</i> held fast between them, told the
-Emperor, she could not be so happy to
-partake of the Honour of his Bed now she
-was no more a Slave, but she would consult
-the Mufti, and if he could dispense with it,
-she would with the utmost Joy comply.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> <i>Mufti</i>, who knew what he was to
-do, declar’d she could never enter <i>Mahomet</i>’s
-<i>Paradise</i>, if she yielded to the Emperor’s
-Desires without being his Wife.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">The</span> Emperor, well satisfy’d with the
-<i>Mufti</i>’s Answer, had the Marriage-Rites<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_24" id="Page_24">(24)</a></span>
-perform’d, and gave her 5000 <i>Sultana</i>’s for
-her pearly Dowry.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Being</span> satisfy’d so far, she now proceeded
-to procure the Death of <i>Mustapha</i>. She
-got counterfeit Letters convey’d to the Sultan,
-that shew’d that <i>innocent</i> Prince in a <i>false</i> and
-<i>guilty</i> Light.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">But</span> this not having the quick Effect
-she wish’d, she endeavour’d to cut him off
-by Poison, but to no purpose, for he escap’d
-the Trap. She at last procur’d a Letter that
-<i>Mustapha</i> was contracted to the Daughter
-of the King of <i>Persia</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">This</span> wrought so much upon <i>Solyman</i>,
-that he dwelt no longer upon the Ruin of
-his Son.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">In</span> order to this he sent <i>Ruftan</i> with an
-Army to fetch his Son. But finding the
-Prince prepar’d for him, he return’d,
-told <i>Solyman</i>, he was so belov’d by the
-Army he commanded, that he thought it Prudence
-to return as he went.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">This</span> so inrag’d the Emperor, that he
-went in Person with an Army to <i>Aleppo</i><a name="FNanchor_Y_23" id="FNanchor_Y_23"></a><a href="#Footnote_Y_23" class="fnanchor">(Y)</a>,
-<span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_25" id="Page_25">(25)</a></span>where he sent for the <i>unfortunate Prince</i>;
-and notwithstanding he was forewarn’d of
-his Danger, yet he resolv’d to pay Obedience
-to his Father’s Commands. When
-he was near the City the crafty <i>Rustan</i> sent
-several great Officers with the <i>Janizaries</i> to
-meet him, and then insinuated to the Emperor
-the Love the People bore him in going
-in Crouds to meet him.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Mustapha</span> approach’d his Father’s Tent
-with few of his Followers: At the Entrance
-he threw by his Dagger, as the Custom is
-when any Person enters the Tent of the
-<i>Sultan</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">When</span> he had enter’d the inmost Part of
-the Pavilion, he found but a single <i>Sofa</i> to
-sit on, which he took for an ill Omen.
-An Attendant coming in, he ask’d where
-the Emperor was, who reply’d he would
-see him presently. The <i>Prince</i> was melancholy,
-well knowing his Death was approaching;
-and a few Moments after, the
-Mutes enter’d and strangled him. The Emperor
-himself, through another Part of the
-Tent, beheld the fatal Spectacle.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">He</span> was so hopeful a Prince, that the
-Turks, even to this Day, often say, <i>Gietti
-Sultan Mustapha</i>, that is, <i>Our Hope is lost
-in</i> Mustapha.</p>
-
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_26" id="Page_26">(26)</a></span></p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">When</span> the cruel Murder was perform’d,
-the Emperor met <i>Zanger</i> at the Door of the
-Pavilion, enquiring for his dear <i>Mustapha</i>!
-The Emperor bid him enter to the inward
-Tent, and he would find him.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">But</span> when the noble <i>Zanger</i> saw him
-breathless, he cry’d out to hit unnatural <i>Father</i>;
-<i>How could it enter into thy cruel
-Heart to murder so sweet a Prince!</i> Then
-drawing a Ponyard from his Side, plung’d
-it in his Heart, and expir’d upon the breathless
-Body of his dear Brother.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Thus</span> fell two worthy Princes, that might
-have grac’d with their Virtue and Courage
-(had they liv’d) the Annals of the <i>Turkish</i>
-Empire.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">When</span> the Troops were acquainted with
-the Death of <i>Mustapha</i> and <i>Zanger</i>, they
-assembled in a tumultuous Manner to avenge
-his Death: <i>Achmetes</i> the Tutor to <i>Mustapha</i>
-led them on. <i>Solyman</i>, to appease their
-Rage, disgrac’d <i>Rustan</i>, turn’d him out of
-all his Posts, and conferr’d them on <i>Achmetes</i>,
-with a Promise never to displace him;
-but <i>Rustan</i>, assisted by the artful <i>Roxolana</i>,
-procur’d the Death of <i>Achmetes</i>, and was by
-the Emperor restor’d to all his former Honours,
-and by him more esteem’d than ever.</p>
-
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_27" id="Page_27">(27)</a></span></p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Mustapha</span> was so well beloved, that a
-false <i>Mustapha</i> appear’d, and was follow’d
-by the Malecontents till he had gather’d a
-powerful Army, But the Threats of <i>Solyman</i>
-intimidated his Troops to such a Degree,
-that they forsook their false General,
-who was taken Prisoner, and carry’d to <i>Constantinople</i>,
-where the Emperor by torture
-made him confess that <i>Bajazet</i>, his Son by
-<i>Roxolana</i>, had put him upon the false and
-fatal Enterprize. <i>Roxolana</i> had <i>Selimus</i>, another
-Son, by <i>Solyman</i>; and after the Death
-of the two unfortunate Princes <i>Mustapha</i>
-and <i>Zanger</i>, the Sultan seem’d most to favour
-<i>Selimus</i>, but <i>Roxolana</i>, <i>Bajazet</i>. But
-it was with much Difficulty she gain’d his
-Pardon from the Emperor his Father, for
-his promoting a false <i>Mustapha</i>.</p>
-
-<p><span class="smcap">Solyman</span> to the last of his Life regretted
-the Loss of his <i>Mustapha</i> and <i>Zanger</i>.
-He died of a Consumption after gaining
-many Victories, in the Year 1566, the 14th
-of <i>September</i>, in the 76th Year of his Age,
-and the 46th Year of his Reign. As to his
-Person; he was of an advantageous Height,
-well made, but pale, his Nose long and
-hooked, more faithful to his Promise than
-most of his Predecessors, and wanted not
-many Virtues to form a good Prince.</p>
-
-<p><span class="pagenum"><a name="Page_28" id="Page_28">(28)</a></span></p>
-
-<p>I can’t help ending the Trifle, with congratulating
-the Author of the Play with his

-in <i>the Harbour</i> between its Legs: it was seventy Cubits
-high. The Brass of this Statue, (after it was thrown
-down by an Earthquake) loaded seventy-two Camels,
-and was transported to <i>Alexandria</i> in <i>Egypt</i>, when it
-was taken by <i>Muhavia</i> the Sultan. <i>Rhodes</i> is seated
-seven Leagues from the nearest Coast of <i>Asia</i> to the
-South, forty-seven from <i>Candi</i> (another Island in the
-<i>Mediterranean</i>, made famous by the Poets by the name
-of <i>Crete</i>) to the North-East, and a hundred and sixty
-Leagues from <i>Constantinople</i> to the South. It was first
-peopled by <i>Javan</i>, the Grandson of <i>Japhet</i>, before
-any part of <i>Greece</i> was inhabited: in a few ages after,
-the <i>Phœnicians</i> (famous for spreading Traffic over the
-World that was then known) possess’d it. It was made
-a <i>Roman Province</i> by <i>Vespasian</i>. In 654 it was taken
-by the <i>Saracens</i>: in 1124 it was conquer’d by <i>Venetians</i>
-it was taken in the Year 1227 by <i>John Ducas</i>,
-<i>Admiral</i> of the <i>Greeks</i>: in 1283, it fell with all
-lesser <i>Asia</i> into the hands of the <i>Othomans</i>: in 1310, it
-was taken (after a four Years Siege) by the Knights
-of St. <i>John</i> of <i>Jerusalem</i>, under <i>Fulk Villers</i>, an <i>Englishman</i>,
-afterwards <i>Grand Master</i> of the <i>Order</i>. It was
-vainly attempted twice by <i>Mahomet</i> II; till taken by
-Treachery by <i>Solyman</i> the Magnificent. The <i>Knights</i> of
-<i>Rhodes</i> retir’d to <i>Sicily</i>; till the Year 1530, <i>Charles</i> V.
-gave them the Grant of the <i>Island</i> of <i>Malta</i>, where
-they have flourish’d ever since, often checking the Insults
-of the <i>Turkish</i> maritime Power.</p></div>

-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of

-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
-spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
