s king Sigismundus (whose ambassadours very sumptuous I have scene at Mosco) was reported to be too milde in suffering the Moscovites. Before our trafficke they overranne his great dukedome of Lituania , and tooke Smolensco, carrying the people captives to Mosco. And in the yere 1563, as appeareth by Thomas Alcocks letter, they suffered the Russe likewise in that Duchy to take a principall city called Polotzko, with the lord and people thereof. Likewise the said Sigismundus and the king of Sweden did not looke to the protection of Livonia , but lost all, except Rie and Revel, and the Russe made the Narve his port to trafficke, not onely to us, but to Lubec and others, generall. And still from those parts the Moscovites were furnished out of Dutchland by enterlopers with all arts and artificers, and had few or none by us. The Italians also furnished them with engines of warre, and taught them warrelike stratagemes, and the arte of fortification. In the dayes of Sigismund, the Rus

Certaine reasons to disswade the use of a trade to the Narve aforesaide, by way through Sweden . THE merchandise of the Narve are grosse wares, viz. flaxe, hempe, waxe, tallow and hides. Thet that place standeth upon the agreement and liking of the Emperour of Russia, with the king of Sweden : for all these merchandises that are brought thither come from Plescove, Novogrod, and other pahose merchandises from Narve to Stockholm , or what other place shall bee thought convenient in Sweden , it must be in vessels of those countries, which wilbe of smal force to resist Freebooters, or r that shall make quarel or offer violence against them. When the goods are brought into Sweden , they must be discharged, and new laden into smaller vessels, to cary the same by river or lakeme it? The danger that may grow in our trade to Russia by way of S. Nicholas, through the displeasure that the Emperour may conceive by our trade with the Sweden to Narve is also to be considered.
