On December 31, 1584 the Treaty of Joinville was signed between the Guises and Spain. Philip of Spain undertook to pay the Guises 50,000 écus per month so long as they made war in France to exterminate the Protestant religion and to place the Cardinal of Bourbon on the throne. This pamphlet states the reasons for the alliance of the Cardinal, prelates, and all good Christians against the Huguenots. They accuse the Protestants of subverting the religion of France and destroying the realm. Because the Protestants have raised armies, because by corruption they have taken money from the King's treasury, and because the Protestants have caused the government to fall into shambles, the Cardinal de Bourbon has allied himself to others to oppose the Protestants in whatever way necessary. ; Electronic reproduction; 16 p. ; 17 cm.
