But, besides that, the faith which the Spanish princes had pledged to them when they submitted to their authority had been often violated, they had been from the beginning treated with every mark of jealousy and suspicion; they had been excluded from all the honours, and from every important office in the state;...
Trang 453 - Algiers, and other places, where they hoped to be permitted to take up their residence. Few of them ever arrived at these places. Of six thousand, who set out together from Conastal, a town in the neighbourhood of Oran, with an intention of going to Algiers, a single person only, of the name of Pedralvi, survived the disasters to which they were exposed; and of the whole hundred and forty thousand, who were at this time transported to Africa, there is ground to believe, from the concurring...
Trang 450 - ... eine Reihe wahrer Begebenheiten aus Watsons Geschichte. So wird die Vertreibung der Mauren nach Nordafrika, die am Schluß von Klingers Roman eine so wichtige Rolle spielt, schon bei Watson kurz erwähnt: WIDELY different from the sentiments of this bigotted ecclesiastic were those of the Valentia barons; who gave their vassals, on this melancholy occasion, every proof of generous compassion and humanity. By the royal edict they were entitled to all the property belonging to their vassals, except...
Trang 408 - Moyescoes had, at the same time, been used with greater kindness, or even with greater lenity and forbearance, it is probable that, sooner or later, these means would have been attended with the desired success. But, besides that the faith which the Spanish princes had pledged to them when they submitted...
Trang 409 - ... church, and their maxims of government too despotic, to allow them to perceive the absurdity of these measures, so extremely ill calculated to promote the purpose for which they were designed. Charles the Fifth, however, and Philip the Second, two princes noted for their political discernment, being aware of the prejudice which the kingdom would sustain, if the Morescoes, who formed so great a proportion of their subjects, were expelled, had given no ground to suspect that they would ever consent...
Trang 410 - ... ascribed to the remissness or negligence of those who had been employed to instruct them; and the clergy were sensible that much greater pains were requisite for this end than they were willing to bestow. Besides which, their revenues had been taxed for augmenting the Morescoe vicarages, and for building and endowing an additional number of churches for their instruction. They were, on both these accounts, inflamed against the Morescoes with a peculiar hatred; and, in order that they might at...
Trang 452 - ... the women, some, on account of their beauty, preserved alive for a few days to satiate the lust of the inhuman murderers of their husbands and brothers, and then either slaughtered or committed to the waves : such were some of the horrid deeds of which these barbarians were convicted upon their trial, to which they were brought, in consequence of quarrelling with each other about the division of their prey ; and such, if we may credit a contemporary historian, was the unhappy fate of a great...

But to whatever cause her dejection of mind was owing, it preyed upon her exhausted frame, and in a few weeks put a period to her life, in the seventieth year of her age, and the forty-fifth...
Trang 453 - ... the Morescoes attempted, with stones and slings, their only arms, to make resistance, put great numbers of them to the sword. Still greater numbers perished of fatigue and hunger, joined to the inclemencies of the weather, from which they had no means of shelter, during their tedious journey through the African desarts, to Mostagan, Algiers, and other places, where they hoped to be permitted to take up their residence.
Trang 452 - The men butchered in the presence of their wives and children ; the women and children afterwards thrown alive into the sea ; of the women, some, on account of their beauty, preserved alive for a few days to satiate the lust of the inhuman murderers of their husbands and brothers, and then either slaughtered or committed to the waves : such were some of the horrid deeds of which these barbarians were convicted upon their...
