![CHAPTER XXII. SPAIN AND SPANISH ITALY UNDER PHILIP III AND IV. I. UNPUBLISHED DOCUMENTS. The Spanish State Papers of the period covered by this chapter are in the Archives of Simancas arranged under the heads of the various Councils, Estado, Guerra, Castilla, Italia, etc.; and the Colonial Papers for the same period are in the Archivo de Indias at Seville, many of them, however, having been published during the last forty years in the government series “Documentos de Indias.” There are numerous Spanish unpublished documents of interest appertaining to this period in the Add. mss., and Egerton mss., at the British Museum, mostly drawn from the Altamira Archives, of which the remaining portions are in the possession of Don Guillermo Osma of Madrid, and of the heirs of Seiior Zabalburu, respectively. The Correspondence of the English ambassadors in Spain at the time is in the Record Office, and has been for the most part transcribed by the present writer. It is mainly valuable as dealing with the negotiations respecting the Palatinate and the proposed marriage of the Prince of Wales with the Infanta. The Correspondence of the French ambassadors in Spain is in the Archives Nationales, Paris. In addition to the above in National Collections the following unpublished papers may be specified.
