l methods she might avoid war, even at this eleventh hour. The damage done by Drake was in great part irreparable. Not only were many stores and ships destroyed in Cadiz, but for weeks afterwards the English fleet lay off the coast of Portugal,capturing great numbers of vessels loaded with pipestaves, for the water and wine casks of the Armada.These could not be quickly replaced, and their loss led to the short and bad water supply in the fleet, which was one of its worst calamities. When Drake sailed away, Spain was crippled for a time ; and the capture of the rich Indies galleon, San Felipe, completed the discomfiture of King Philip, who had no alternative now but to order Santa Cruz to make ready his ships To prove the importance of this point, one of Mendoza's arguments in favour of the proposal of Huntly and the Scottish Catholics to attack England across the Border by land instead of by an invading fleet, was the great cost of the pipe staves,which he said had already been 150,000 ducats.

queen ELIZABETH from THE PAINTING BY MARC GHEERAERTS AT THE NATIONAL portrait GALLERY - PARMA AND THE ARMADA 465 in Lisbon, in a hurry, not now to invade England, but to prevent Drake from intercepting and plundering the silver fleet, whose safe arrival in Spain would alone enable Philip to proceed with his plan of invasion in the following year. The injury inflicted by Drakes raid was a terrible one to Philip, but he plodded on, still convinced of the goodness of his methods and the ultimate certain victory of his cause. To Parma, in Flanders, the news of Drakes attack brought anguish and discouragement beyond words,for he was less blinded by fervour than his uncle was,and was brought nearer to his practical difficulties.He was a great commander and saw plainly the weak points of Philips scheme for the Armada, so far as it was communicated to him. A divided command and strictly limited authority were repugnant to him, a sovereign Prince and practically supreme in Spanish Flanders; and from the first h

n religion. . . . You will enforce this by all the good arguments and persuasions that you can employ, but if you can obtain no success in that way you will consider whether it will be well to press the queen by saying that if this change is made, all idea of my marriage with her must be broken off. If she has any thoughts that way this may be effective. 2 Feria was in a quandary, for he knew how impossible it was, seeing Elizabeth's temper, to deal with her in this way. After two or three inconclusive interviews with the queen, in which the question of the religious changes was pressed and the marriage broadly hinted at, Feria came to close quarters with her. She began with her usual professions of disinclination to marry at all, and was proceeding, as he feared, to decline her brother-in-laws proposal, when the ambassador ^ The English correspondence on this matter is of much interest.

queen ELIZABETH FROM A PAINTING BY ZUCCHERO IN THE NATIONAL portrait GALLERY. ELIZABETH AND FERIA 193 stopped her and said he did not want an answer then. After some coquettish verbal fencing she promised him that she would give him a good answer if she gave him one at all. And then came the serious part of the business. Howard had written to her that Alba had said that they (the Spaniards) could not stand out for Calais any longer, but must make peace in any case. Elizabeth worked herself up into a rage about this,and began to storm about Mary of Scotland's claims upon England. She was not so poor that she could not get what money and soldiers she needed to hold her own, she said. Her people were all grumbling, she declared, at the waste of money upon the fleet for Philips service and other heavy expenditure the late queen had incurred for him; and Feria had much a do to enforce his view that England owed a deep debt of gratitude to Philip, and the unreasonableness of expecting that he would keep a
