Spanish policy: or, an oration of the learned Monsieur Verheiden. Delivered before the States General of the United Provinces, on the defeat of the invincible armado, with which Philip II. King of Spain, intended to invade England. Wherein The Secret Springs and Causes of that Famous Expedition are exactly traced; the Avarice and Cruelty of the Spaniards exposed; their Ambitious Views of Universal Monarchy, asserted and confirmed by numerous Instances; and the Politick Methods they took to introduce the Inquisition into Holland, England, France, Germany, Poland, and other Countries, set in a clear Light. Address'd to all the Princes and States of Europe. And now Published as a proper Warning to Great Britain at this Juncture; shewing the Folly and Danger of tamely submitting to Spanish Councils and Impositions; and demonstrating the Reasonableness of humbling the Pride of that haughty and insolent Nation.
