Where then was Farnese at this conjuncture ? Nothing can be more wretched than the defences of his apologists : leaky boats^-aailors not to be depend- ed on — want of vessels of the right draught of water— such are the pretences alleged for breaking his engagements to Philip, and disappointing the magnificent hopes entertained of h...is co* operation. He had had months, nay years, to provide himself against all these contingencies, While the Armada was strug- gling up the Channel, and while, during three anxious days, it Fay off the coast of Flanders, he remained all the time quiet at Bruges: not until it was in full sail to the northward, did he come to the coast at all. It suited the policy of Philip to ex- onerate him of all blame ; and thus he has escaped more easily at th* bands of posterity than could otherwise have happened.
