Foreseeing that some who do not love me will be swift to allege that in the preparation of these memoirs I have set down only such things as redound to my credit, and have suppressed the many experiences not so propitious which fall to the lot of the most sagacious while in power, I take this opportunity of refuting that calumny. For the truth stands so far the other way that my respect for the King's person has led me to omit many things creditable to me; and some, it may be, that place me in a higher light than any I have set down.

'You Will Observe One Curious Trait,' Said Sidonia To Coningsby, 'In The History Of This Country: The Depository Of Power Is Always Unpopular; All Combine Against It; It Always Falls. Power Was Deposited in the Great Barons; The Church, Using the King for Its Instrument, Crushed the Great Barons. Power Was Deposited in the Church; The King, Bribing the Parliament, Plundered the Church. Power Was Deposited in the King; The Parliament, Using the People, Beheaded the King, Expelled the King, Changed the King, And, Finally, For A King substituted an Administrative Officer. For One Hundred and Fifty Years Power Has Been Deposited in the Parliament, And For The Last Sixty Or Seventy Years It Has Been Becoming More And More Unpopular. In 1830 It Was Endeavoured by A Reconstruction To Regain The Popular Affection; But, In truth, As The Parliament Then Only Made Itself More Powerful, It Has Only Become More Odious. As We See That The Barons, The Church, The King, Have In turn Devoured each Other, And That The Parliament, The Last Devourer, Remains, It Is Impossible To Resist The Impression That This Body Also Is Doomed to Be Destroyed; And He Is A Sagacious Statesman Who May Detect In what Form And In what Quarter The Great Consumer Will Arise.'

Whether we take the pictures of the inimitable Cervantes, or of that scarcely less meritorious author from whom Le Sage has borrowed his immortal tale, for our guides; whether we confide in the graver legends of history, or put our trust in the accounts of modern travellers, the time has scarcely ever existed when the inns of Spain were good, or the roads safe. These are two of the blessings of civilization which the people of the peninsula would really seem destined never to attain; for, in all ages, we hear, or have heard, of wrongs done the traveller equally by the robber and the host. If such are the facts to-day, such also were the facts in the middle of the fifteenth century, the period to which we desire to carry back the reader in imagination. At the commencement of the month of October, in the year of our Lord 1469, John of Trastamara reigned in Aragon, holding his court at a place called Zaragosa, a town lying on the Ebro, the name of which is supposed to be a corruption of Cæsar Augustus, and a city that has become celebrated in our own times, under the more Anglicised term of Saragossa, for its deeds in arms. John of Trastamara, or, as it was more usual to style him, agreeably to the nomenclature of kings, John II., was one of the most sagacious monarchs of his age; but he had become impoverished by many conflicts with the turbulent, or, as it may be more courtly to say, the liberty-loving Catalonians; had frequently enough to do to maintain his seat on the throne; possessed a party-colored empire that included within its sway, besides his native Aragon with its dependencies of Valencia and Catalonia, Sicily and the Balearic Islands, with some very questionable rights in Navarre. By the will of his elder brother and predecessor, the crown of Naples had descended to an illegitimate son of the latter, else would that kingdom have been added to the list. The King of Aragon had seen a long and troubled reign, and, at this very moment, his treasury was nearly exhausted by his efforts to subdue the truculent Catalans, though he was nearer a triumph than he could then foresee, his competitor, the Duke of Lorraine, dying suddenly, only two short months after the precise period chosen for the commencement of our tale. But it is denied to man to look into the future, and on the 9th of the month just mentioned, the ingenuity of the royal treasurer was most sorely taxed, there having arisen an unexpected demand for a considerable sum of money, at the very moment that the army was about to disband itself for the want of pay, and the public coffers contained only the very moderate sum of three hundred Enriques, or Henrys-a gold coin named after a previous monarch, and which had a value not far from that of the modern ducat, or our own quarter eagle. The matter, however, was too pressing to be deferred, and even the objects of the war were considered as secondary to those connected with this suddenly-conceived, and more private enterprise.
