A
TRVE
REPORTARIE
OF
THE
BAPTISME
OF
THE
PRINCE
of
Scotland
.
THE
Noble
and
most
potent
Prince
of
Scotland
,
was
borne
in
the
Castell
of
Striuiling
vpon
Tuesday
,
the
19.
day
of
Februarie
1594.
vpon
which
occasion
the
Kingis
Maiestie
,
sent
for
the
Nobles
of
his
Land
,
and
to
all
the
capitall
Burrows
thereof
,
to
haue
their
aduise
,
how
he
should
proceed
for
the
due
solemnization
of
his
Royall
Baptisme
,
and
what
Princes
he
should
send
to
:
When
they
were
all
compeired
with
great
diligence
and
goodwill
,
hee
proponed
vnto
them
,
that
it
was
necessary
,
to
direct
out
Ambassadours
to
France
,
England
,
Denmarke
,
the
Lowe-Countries
,
the
Duke
of
Brunswicke
his
brother
in
lawe
,
and
to
the
Duke
of
Magdelburgh
,
the
Queenes
Maiesties
Grand-father
,
and
to
such
other
Princes
as
should
be
thought
expedient
.
Likewise
,
hee
thought
the
Castell
of
Striuiling
,
the
most
conuenient
place
for
the
residence
of
this
mo●t
Noble
and
Mightie
Prince
,
in
respect
that
hee
was
borne
there
:
As
also
,
it
was
necessary
,
that
su●ficient
preparation
might
be
made
for
the
Ambassadours
that
should
be
invited
to
come
for
honour
of
the
Crowne
and
Countrie
.
And
besides
all
this
,
because
the
Chappell
Royall
was
ruinous
,
and
too
little
,
concluded
,
that
the
old
chappell
should
be
vtterlie
rased
,
and
a
new
erected
in
the
same
place
,
that
shuld
be
more
large
,
long
and
glorious
,
to
entertaine
the
great
number
of
strangers
exspected
.
These
propositions
at
length
considered
,
they
all
with
a
free
voluntarie
deliberation
,
granted
vnto
his
Maiestie
,
the
summe
of
an
hundreth
thousand
pounds
money
of
Scotland
.
Then
was
there
Ambassadors
elected
,
to
passe
in
France
,
England
,
Denmarke
,
the
Lowe
Countries
,
and
other
places
before
mentioned
,
who
were
al
dispatched
with
such
expedition
,
and
their
Legacies
took
such
wished
effect
:
That
first
there
came
two
famous
men
from
the
King
of
Denmark
,
the
one
CHRISTIANVS
BERNEKOW
,
the
other
,
STENIO
BILLE
,
these
came
to
Leyth
the
16.
of
Iuly
,
The
next
day
after
them
,
came
ADAMVS
CRVSIVS
,
Ambassadour
for
the
Duke
of
Brunswick
,
and
IOACHIMVS
BASSEVITIVS
,
Ambassadour
for
the
Duke
of
Magdelburgh
,
who
is
Grand-father
to
the
noble
Princesse
ANNE
,
by
the
grace
of
God
Queene
of
Scotland
.
Thirdly
,
the
3.
day
of
August
,
there
came
Ambassadours
from
the
States
of
Holland
and
Zeland
,
the
Barron
of
Braderod
,
and
the
Treasurer
of
Zeland
,
called
IA●O●VS
FALKIVS
.
There
was
also
a
Noble
man
directed
from
England
,
to
wit
,
the
Erle
of
Cummerland
,
who
,
euen
when
he
had
prepared
himselfe
richlie
,
and
honourablie
in
all
respects
for
his
voyage
to
come
into
Scotland
,
and
diuers
Noble
men
and
Gentil
men
of
renowne
,
prepared
and
commanded
for
his
honorable
conuoy
,
It
pleased
God
to
visit
him
with
sicknes
:
And
in
that
respect
another
Noble
man
was
chosen
to
supply
his
place
,
which
was
the
Erle
of
Sussex
,
&c.
And
hee
in
consideration
of
his
short
,
and
vnexspected
advertisement
,
made
such
diligence
in
his
voyage
,
and
magnificence
for
his
owne
persone
and
honourable
convoy
,
as
was
thought
rare
and
riche
by
all
men
:
wher●●y
it
fell
out
,
that
betwixt
the
sicknes
of
the
one
Nobleman
and
the
hastie
preparation
of
the
other
,
the
time
was
so
farre
spent
,
that
the
very
prefixt
daies
of
the
Baptisme
,
were
sundry
tunes
delaied
.
And
because
the
Ambassadour
of
England
was
so
long
a
comming
:
&
the
Ambassadors
of
Denmarke
,
Brunswicke
and
Magdelb●rgh
,
were
feared
to
be
hindered
in
their
voyage
by
the
Sea
,
by
reason
of
the
neere
approching
of
Winter
:
They
desired
daily
of
the
Kings
Maiestie
,
during
their
remaining
in
Edinburgh
,
to
haue
some
prefixed
day
to
be
nominate
and
certainly
kept
,
that
immediatly
thereafter
,
they
might
be
dispatched
,
which
he
granted
at
the
last
,
although
hee
had
diuers
great
impediments
to
the
contrary
.
The
first
was
because
the
Chappell
Ro●●ll
and
C●stell
of
Striuiling
,
was
not
fully
compl●●t
in
all
such
necess●ries
,
as
w●s
requisite
,
although
he
had
the
supply
of
the
greatest
numbre
of
Artificers
in
the
whol
Cuntrie
,
conuened
there
,
of
all
craftes
for
that
seruice
,
and
his
Maiesties
owne
person
daily
ouerseer
,
with
large
and
liberall
payment
:
but
the
chiefest
cause
,
was
the
long
absence
of
an
Ambassadour
from
England
,
which
his
Maiestie
greatly
respected
for
many
causes
:
And
last
of
al
,
exspecting
,
that
some
Ambassadour
should
haue
come
from
France
,
which
fel
not
out
as
was
looked
for
.
But
when
the
Ambassadour
was
come
from
England
to
Edinburgh
,
foorthwith
,
his
Maiestie
dispatched
one
of
the
Gentlemen
of
his
Nienes
chalmer
,
to
request
him
to
repair
towards
Striuiling
the
next
day
with
all
possible
diligence
,
(
which
was
the
28.
day
of
August
)
because
he
wold
haue
had
the
Baptisme
administred
the
day
following
.
But
neither
were
the
Propynes
sent
by
the
Queene
of
England
,
neither
her
Ambassadours
owne
cariages
as
then
come
:
Therfore
the
Baptisme
was
delaied
vntill
the
30.
day
of
August
,
as
ye
shall
heare
particularly
hereafter
.
But
in
the
meanetime
,
it
is
to
be
vnderstoode
,
that
all
these
Noble
Ambassadours
before
expressed
,
were
honourablie
sustained
vpon
the
Kings
Maiesties
owne
proper
costes
,
during
the
whole
time
of
their
residence
in
Scotland
,
saue
onely
the
Ambassadour
of
England
,
whose
whole
expences
,
were
defrayed
by
his
Souerane
the
Queene
of
England
.
And
because
the
rest
of
the
Ambassadors
were
repaired
to
Striuiling
by
his
Maiesties
direction
,
long
before
the
comming
of
the
English
Ambassador
his
Hienes
bestowed
the
time
with
them
in
magnifique
banketting
,
reuelling
,
&
daily
hunting
with
great
honour
.
The
Kings
Maies●ie
,
purposing
further
to
decore
by
magnificence
this
action
,
committed
the
charge
thereof
to
the
Lord
of
Lendores
,
and
M.
William
Fowler
,
who
by
their
trauells
,
deligence
,
and
inuention
,
broght
it
to
that
perfection
,
which
the
shortnes
of
time
and
other
considerations
culd
permit
.
So
they
hauing
consulted
together
,
concluded
that
those
exercises
,
that
wer
to
be
vsed
for
decoration
of
that
solemnitie
,
were
to
be
deuided
both
in
Feeld
pastimes
,
with
Martiall
and
hero●-call
exploites
,
and
in
houshold
,
with
rare
shewes
and
singular
inventions
,
The
Feeld
to
be
vsed
at
two
seuerall
dayes
:
the
first
to
be
of
three
Turks
,
three
Christian
knights
of
Malta
,
three
Amazones
,
and
three
Mores
.
But
by
reason
of
the
absence
,
or
at
the
least
,
the
vncertaine
presence
of
the
three
last
Gentlemen
,
who
should
haue
sustained
these
personages
,
it
was
thought
good
,
that
the
number
of
that
mask
shuld
consist
of
Nyne
Actors
,
nyne
Pages
,
and
nyne
Lack●es
,
which
comming
from
sundry
parts
and
at
diuers
times
,
together
with
the
diuersitie
of
their
apparell
,
should
bring
some
noueltie
to
the
behoulders
.
The
place
most
expedient
for
this
action
,
was
the
Valey
,
neere
the
Castel
,
which
being
prepared
for
that
purpose
,
both
with
Carier
and
Scaffold
,
after
the
comming
of
the
Queenes
Maiestie
,
with
her
honorable
and
gallant
Ladies
,
together
with
the
honorable
Ambassadors
,
the
field
beeing
beset
by
the
braue
Yonkers
of
Edinburgh
with
their
hagbutes
,
during
the
whole
time
of
that
pastyme
.
Then
three
Christians
entered
the
fielde
with
sound
of
Trumpet
,
who
were
the
Kings
maiesty
,
〈…〉
and
THOMAS
ER●KINE
,
(
〈◊〉
h●s

)
who

A

So
all
these
persons
beeing

and
at

making
their

to
the
Queenes
Maiesty

The

Page
of
this

,
caried
on

,
the
Portraiture
of
an

alluding
to
the
vncertainty
of
persons
or

,
with
these
wordes
:
V●
frustrà

The
last
was
this
,
a
fire
in
sight
of
the
Sunne
,
burning
,
and
not
perceaued
,
with
this
sentence
,
Oblector
lumine
victus
.
And
euerie
Lackie
,
carying
in
his
hand
,
his
M●isters
Launce
.
They
began
their
pastyme
by
running
at
the
King
and
Gloue
:
The
laws
wherof
were
these
.
First
,
th●t
all
the
persons
of
this
pastime
,
compeare
masked
,
and
in
such
order
as
they
come
into
the
field
,
so
to
run
out
all
their
courses
.
Secondlie
,
that
none
vse
ante
oth●r
ring
,
but
that
which
is
put
by
:
and
vse
no
other
Launce
,
but
that
which
they
hau●
brought
for
thems●lues
.
Thirdlie
,
hee
th●t
twise
touches
the
ring
,
or
stirres
it
,
winneth
asmuch
as
if
he
caried
away
the
Ring
.
Fourthlie
,
〈◊〉
l●ts
his
Launce
fall
out
of
his
hand
,
is
de●●●●ed
of
all
the
rest
of
his
courses
.
Fiftlie
,
that
eu●rie
one
run
with
loose
rain●s
,
and
with
asmuch
speed
,
as
his
Horse
hath
.
Sixtlie
,
that
none
after
his
race
,
in
vptaking
of
his
Horse
,
lay
his
Launce
vpon
his
shoulder
,
vnder
the
pain
of
losse
of
that
which
he
hath
done
in
his
course
.
Seuinthlie
,
hee
that
carieth
not
his
Launce
vnder
his
arme
,
looseth
his
course
.
Eightlie
,
that
none
vntil
his
three
courses
be
ended
,
change
his
Horse
,
if
hee
bee
not
hurt
,
or
vpon
some
other
consideration
mooued
to
change
him
.
These
Laws
being
seen
and
approued
by
the
Actors
,
the
Queenes
M●iestie
,
signified
vnto
them
,
that
he
who
did
run
vest
,
shuld
haue
for
his
rewarde
,
a
faire
and
a
riche
King
of
Diamonds
:
and
hee
also
,
who
on
that
same
side
,
had
best
Fortune
in
running
,
he
shuld
be
acknowledged
with
another
as
fair
as
the
first
.
The
proofe
hereof
,
being
made
,
the
victorie
fel
to
the
Duke
of
Lennox
,
who
bringing
it
to
his
side
&
pairtie
,
had
the
praise
and
prise
adiudged
to
himself
.
Thus
the
first
dayes
pastime
was
ended
,
with
great
contentment
to
the
beholders
,
and
commendation
of
the
persons
enterprysers
.
The
second
dayes
pastime
was
extended
,
by
reason
,
that
the
artisans
were
employed
in
other
businesse
,
who
should
haue
followed
foorth
that
inuention
giuen
them
:
And
seeing
the
grace
of
that
exercyse
,
consisted
in
Embosserie
,
and
the
craftesmen
apt
for
the
same
,
otherwise
and
necessarily
busied
,
it
was
left
off
:
Which
,
if
it
had
bene
brought
to
effect
,
this
Countrie
had
not
sene
,
nor
practised
a
more
rater
:
for
what
by
the
brauery
and
strange
apparell
of
the
persons
themselues
,
and
by
the
diuers
shapes
of
the
Beasts
,
that
should
haue
beene
born
and
broght
ther
in
sight
,
had
bene
commendable
and
wonderfull
:
by
reason
that
such
beasts
,
as
Lyon
,
Elephant
,
●art
,
Unicorne
,
and
the
Griphon
,
together
with
the
Camel
,
Hydre
,
Crocadile
,
and
Dragon
(
carying
their
riders
)
had
caried
also
with
it
by
the
newnes
of
that
inuention
,
great
contentment
and
commendation
of
that
exercise
.
But
I
say
,
some
arising
lets
impeshed
this
inuention
:
&
al
things
wer
cast
of
,
that
might
haue
farther
decored
this
solemnity
,
throgh
other
vrgent
occasions
.
And
when
all
the
Ambassadours
were
conuened
together
,
and
all
necessary
materialls
readie
,
the
Chappell
Royall
of
the
Castel
of
Striuiling
was
richelie
hung
,
with
costly
tapestries
:
And
at
the
North-east
end
of
the
same
,
a
royall
seat
of
Estate
,
prepared
for
the
Kings
maiestie
:
And
on
his
right
hand
,
was
set
a
fatre
wyde
Chaire
,
with
the
dew
ornaments
pertaining
therto
,
over
which
,
was
set
the
Armes
of
the
King
of
France
.
Next
therunto
,
w●s
a
princely
trauers
of
Crimson
Taffeta
,
for
the
Ambassador
of
England
,
&
ouer
his
head
,
the
Armes
of
England
:
on
the
desk
before
him
,
lay
a

,
in
such
sort
,
that
every
one
might
haue
a
full
sight
of
the

The
King

Queens
Maiesties
,
were
placed
in
the
midst
of
the

,
and
on

.
On

Maiestie
,
sate
the
Ambassadour
of
Denmarke
,
and
Ambassadours
from
the
States
of
Holland
and
Zeland
:
Betwixt
every
one
of
their
seats
,
was
left
a
good
space
.
On
the
East
and
west
side
of
the
Hal
,
was
placed
two
very
long
Tables
,
where
were
set
certain
Noble

,
Ladies

And

,
or

.
Nowe
,
beeing
thus
in
a
very
honourable
and
comely
order
set
,
and
after
a
while
,
hauing
well
refreshed
themselues
with
the
first
seruice
,
which
was
very
sumpteous
,
there
came
into
the
sight
of
them
all
,
a
Black-Moore
,
drawing
(
as
it
seemed
to
the
beholders
)
a
triumphall
Charlot
(
and
before
it
,
the
melodious
noyse
of
trumpets
and
Howboyes
)
which
Chariot
entered
the
Hall
,
the
motion
of
the
whole
frame
(
which
was
twelue
foote
long
,
and
seuen
foot
broad
)
was
so
artificial
within
it selfe
,
that
it
appeared
to
be
drawen
in
,
onely
by
the
strength
of
a
Moore
,
which
was
very
richly
attyred
,
his
traces
were
great
chaines
of
pure
gold
.
Vpon
this
Chariot
was
finely
and
artificially
deuised
,
a
sumpteous
couered
Table
,
decked
with
all
sortes
of
exquisite
delicates
and
dainties
,
of
pattisserie
,
frutages
,
and
confections
.
About
the
table
,
were
placed
sit
Gallant
dames
,
who
represented
a
silent
Comedie
,
three
of
them
clothed
in
Argentyne
Saten
,
and
three
in
Crimson
Saten
:
All
these
six
garments
,
were
enriched
with
Togue
and
Tinsal
,
of
pure
gold
and
siluer
,
euery
one
of
them
hauing
a
Crowne
or
Garland
on
their
heades
,
very
richely
decked
with
fethers
,
pearles
,
and
Iewels
vpon
their
loose
haire
,
in
Antica
forma
.
In
the
first
front
stood
dame
Ceres
,
with
a
sickle
in
her
right
hand
,
and
a
handfull
of
Corne
in
the
other
,
and
vpon
the
outmost
part
of
her

,
was
written
this
sentence
,
Fundent
vberes
omnia
Campi
,
which
is
to
say
,
the
plenteous
Fields
shall
affoord

.
Ouer
against
Ceres
,
stood
Faecunditie
,
with
some
bushes
of
Chesbolls
,
which
vnder
an
hierogliphi●
sence
,
representeth
broodines
with
this
Deuise
,
Forlix
prole
divum
,
and
on
the
other
side
of
her
habite
,
Crescant
in

.
The
first
importing
that
this
Cuntrie
is
blessed
by
the
Childe
of
the
goddes
,
and
the
second
,
alluding
to
the
King
and
Queenes
Maiesti●s
,
that
their
generations
may
grow
into
thousandes
.
Next
on
the
other
side
,
was
placed
Faith
,
hauing
in
her
hands
a
Basen
,
and
in
the
same
two
hands
ioyned
together
,
with
this
sentence
,
Boni
alumna
coniugij
,
The
fortresse
and
nurse
of
a
blessed
mariage
.
Ouer
against
Faith
,
stood
Concorde
,
with
a
golden
Tasse
in
her
left
hand
,
and
the
horn
of
aboundance
in
her
right
hand
with
this
sentence
,
Pleno
beant
te

.
The
heuenly
powers
do
blesse

with
a
full
bosome
.
The
next
place
was
occupyed
by
Liberalitie
,
who
hauing
in
her
right
hand
two
Crownes
,
and
in
her
left
,
two
Scepters
,
with
this
denise
,
Me
comite
plura
quam

,
accipies
.
That
is
to
say
,
hauing
me
thy
follower
,
thou
shalt
receiue
more
than
thou
shalt
giue
.
And
the
last
was
Perseverance
,
hauing
in
her
right
hand
a
staste
,
and
on
her
left
shoulder
an
Anchor
,
with
this
deuise
,
Nec
dubiares
mutabuns
,
nec

,
Neither
doubtfull
,
nor
more
prosperous
things
shall
change
your
state
.
This
Chariot
which
should
haue
bene
drawn
in
by
a
Lyon
,
(
but
because
his
presence
might
haue
brought
some
feare
,
to
the
neerest
,
or
that
the
sight
of
the
lights
and
torches
might
haue
commoued
his
tamenes
)
It
was
thought
meet
,
that
the
Moore
should
supply
that
roome
:
And
so
,
he
in
outwarde
shewe
,
preassed
to
draw
that
forward
,
which
by
a
secreet
conboy
,
was
brought
to
the
Princes
Table
,
and
the
whole
desert
,
was
deliuered
by
Ceres
,
Foecunditie
,
Faith
,
Concord
,
Liberalitie
,
and
Perseverance
,
to
the
Erles
,
Lords
,
and
Barons
that
were
Sewers
.
Presently
after
the
returning
of
the
Chariot
,
entered
a
most
sumpteous
,
artificiall
,
and
wel
proportioned
ship
,
the
length
of
her
keele
,
was
18.
foot
,
and
her
bredth
8.
foote
:
from
her
bottome
to
her
highest
flagge
,
was
40.
foot
:
the
Sea
shee
stoode
vpon
,
was
24.
foot
long
,
with
bredth
convenient
:
her
motion
was
so
artificially
deuised
within
her self
,
that
none
could
perceiue
what
brought
her
in
.
The
Sea
vnder
her
,
was
liuely
counterfeit
,
withal
cou●outs
:
On
her
foresterne
was
placed
Neptunu●
,
hauing
in
his
hand
h●s
Trident
,
&
on
his
head
a
Crowne
,
his
apparell
was
all
of
Indian
cloth
of
si●ver
and
silk
,
which
bare
this
inscription
,
●unxi
atquereduxi
which
in
sence
importeth
,
that
as
he
ioyned
them
,
so
he
reduced
their
Maiesties
.
Then
Thetis
with
her
M●ce
,
goddesse
of
the
sea
with
this
deuise
,
Nunquam
abero
&
tutum
semper
te
littore
sistam
,
which
signifieth
,
that
by
her
presence
,
she
alwaies
shall
be
carefull
to
bring
them
into
a
safe
shore
and
harborow
.
Then
Triton
with
his
wilke
Trumpet
,
was
next
to
her
with
this
deuise
,
Velis
,
votis
,
ventis
,
by
Sayles
,
by
Vowes
,
by
Windes
.
Round
about
the
Ship
,
were
all
the
Marine
people
,
as
Syrenes
,
(
aboue
the
middle
as
women
,
&
vnder
as
fishes
:
)
and
these
were
Parthenope
,
Ligea
,
and
Leucosia
,
who
accommodating
their
gestures
to
the
voice
of
the
Musitions
,
repeated
this
verse
,
Vnus
eris
nobis
cantandus
semper
in
orbe
.
And
all
the
same
was
decored
with
the
riches
of
the
seas
,
as
Pearls
,
Corals
,
Shelles
,
and
Mettalls
,
very
rare
and
excellent
.
The
bulke
of
this
Ship
was
curiouslie
painted
,
and
her
Galleries
,
wherevpon
stood
the
most
part
of
the
Banket
in
Christalline
glasse
,
gilt
with
Gold
and
Azure
.
Her
Mastes
were
redde
,
her
takling
and
cordage
,
was
silk
of
the
same
coulour
,
with
golden
Pulle●s
,
Her
ordinance
was
36.
peeces
of
Brasse
,
br●uelie
mounted
,
and
her
Anchors
Siluer-gylt
.
All
her
Sayles
were
double
of
white
Taffata
.
And
in
her
fore-sayle
,
a
Ship
Compas
,
regarding
the
North
Star
,
with
this
sentence
,
Quascunque
per
vndas
.
Which
is
to
say
,
through
quhatsoeuer
seas
,
or
waues
,
the
Kings
Maiestie
intendeth
his
course
,
and
protect
of
anie
acrysing
action
,
Neptune
as
God
of
the
Sea
,
shal
be
fauorable
to
his
proceedings
.
On
the
Main-saile
,
was
painted
the
Armories
of
Scotland
and
Denmark
,
with
this
deuice
,
competent
in
the
person
of
the
Prince
of
Scotland
.
En
quae
divisa
beatos
efficiunt
,
collecta
tenes
.
That
is
to
say
,
Beholde
(
O
Prince
)
what
doth
make
these
kingdomes
seuerally
blessed
,
ioyntly
(
O
Prince
of
hope
)
thou
holdes
,
and
hast
together
.
Her
tops
were
al
armed
with
Taffataes
of
his
Maiesties
Collours
,
Golde
,
and
Geules
:
and
all
her
flaggs
and
streamers
sutable
to
the
same
.
Her
Marriners
were
in
number
six
,
apparelled
al
in
changeable
Spanish
Taffataes
,
and
her
Pilote
in
cloth
of
gold
,
he
alone
stood
at
the
helme
,
who
only
mooued
and
gouerned
the
whole
frame
,
both
the
Ship
and
her
burden
,
very
artificially
.
The
Musitions
within
the
same
,
were
14.
all
apparelled
in
Taffataes
of
his
Maiesties
collors
,
besides
Arion
with
his
Harp
.
Being
thus
prepared
,
at
the
sound
of
Trumpets
,
she
approached
,
and
at
the
next
sound
of
Tritons
wilk
Trumpet
,
together
with
the
Masters
whistle
,
she
made
sayle
till
shee
came
to
the
Table
,
discharging
the
ordinance
in
her
Sterne
by
the
way
:
But
because
this
deuise
caried
some
morall
meaning
with
it
,
it
shal
not
be
impertinent
to
this
purpose
,
to
discover
what
is
meant
and
propyned
thereby
.
The
Kings
Maiestie
,
hauing
vndertaken
in
such
a
desperate
time
,
to
sayle
to
Norway
,
and
like
a
newe
Ia●on
,
to
bring
his
Queene
our
gracious
Lady
to
this
Kingdome
,
being
detained
and
stopped
by
the
conspiracies
of
Witches
,
and
such
denillish
Dragons
,
thought
it
very
meet
,
to
followe
foorth
this
his
owne
invention
,
that
as
Neptunus
(
speaking
portically
,
and
by
such
sictions
,
as
the
like
Interludes
and
actions
are
accustomed
to
be
decored
withall
)
ioyned
the
King
to
the
Queene
.
So
after
this
Coniunction
,
hee
brought
their
Maiesties
as
happely
hither
:
and
now
at
this
her
blessed
deliuery
,
did
bring
such
things
as
the
Sea
affoords
,
to
decore
this
festiual
time
withal
:
which
immediatly
were
deliuered
to
the
Sewers
,
forth
of
the
Galleries
of
this
Ship
,
out
of
Christalline
glasse
,
very
curiously
painted
with
Gold
&
Azure
,
all
sortes
of
Fishes
:
as
Hearinges
,
Whytings
,
Flookes
,
Oysters
,
Buckles
,
Lampets
,
Partans
,
●●apstars
,
Crabs
,
Spout-fish
,
Clammes
:
with
other
infinit
things
made
of
Suger
,
and
most
bluely
represented
in
their
owne
shape
.
And
whiles
the
Ship
was
vnloading
:
Arion
sitting
vpon
the
Gal●●
nose
,
which
resembled
the
forme
of
a
Dolphine
fish
,
played
vpon
his
Harp
:
Then
began
her
musike
in
greene
holyne
Howboyes
in
fiue
partes
.
After
that
,
followed
Violls
with
voices
in
plaine
counterpointe
,
to
the
nature
of
these
Hexameter
V●rses
.
Vndique

After
which
,
ensued
a
stil
noyse
of
Recorders
and
Flutes
:
and
for
the
fourth
,
a
generall
consort
of
the
bes●
Instruments
.
So
this
Enterlude
,
drawing
neere
to
an
end
,
in
the
ver●e
last
courses
,
was
discouered
this
sentence
likewise
.
Submissus

Occ●anus
,
inferring
that
the
Occean
Sea
,
by
offering
the
shapes
of
her
treasure
humblie
adored
and
honoured
the
sitters
.
And
when
in
this
time
,
all
the
banket
was
done
,
after
thanks
being
giuen
,
there
was
sung
with
most
delicate
dulce
voices
,
and
sweet
harmonie
in
7.
partes
,
the
128.
Psalme
,
with
14.
voices
,
And
that
being
done
,
at
the
sound
of
Tritons
wilk
Trumpet
,
and
the
Pilotes
whistle
,
she
wayed
anchor
,
made
saile
,
and
with
noise
of
Howboyes
and
Trumpets
,
retyred
,
and
then
discharged
the
rest
of
her
ordinance
,
to
the
great
admiration
of
the
behold●rs
.
After
all
which
Pastime
and
sport
,
with
merry
and
ioyfull
repast
,
the
King
and
Queenes
Maiesties
,
after
other
offices
of
honour
and
respect
,
the
place
being
prepared
for
the
Reuels
,
and
the
Persons
appointed
for
the
same
,
discharging
themselues
sufficiently
.
Their
Maiesties
,
and
Ambassadors
,
went
to
another
Hal
,
most
richly
and
magnificently
hung
with
riche
Tapistrie
,
where
for
the
collation
,
a
most
rare
,
sumpteous
,
and
Prince-like
desart
of
Sug●r
was
prepared
,
which
being
ended
,
after
taking
of
leaue
,
and
goodnights
,
they
departed
about
three
of
the
clock
in
the
morning
,
to
their
nights
rest
.
The
dates
ensewing
,
so
long
as
leasure
might
serue
,
was
bestowed
by
the
Ambassadors
,
in
banketting
of
Noble
men
and
Gentilmen
of
their
acquaintance
,
and
the
King
in
the
meane
time
was
Sollicite
and
carefull
of
honourable
and
magn●●●ke
rewardes
,
to
be
bestowed
on
either
of
them
,
which
was
also
Princelie
performed
,
to
their
great
contentments
.
And
as
they
were
come
to
Edinburgh
,
they
were
all
banketted
at
some
time
,
seuerally
,
and
at
other
times
together
,
by
diuers
Noble
men
of
Scotland
,
with
great
honour
:
Last
of
all
,
one
Ambassadour
banketted
another
,
for
commemoration
of
that
Ioyfull
meeting
and
good
successe
.
Then
the
King
and
Queenes
Maiesties
came
to
Edinburgh
,
where
they
were
invited
by
the
Ambassadours
of
Denmarke
,
vnto
a
Banket
within
their
Shippe
,
which
lay
at
anchor
in
the
Riuer
of
Forth
:
Shee
was
so
great
,
that
shee
could
not
enter
the
Harborow
.
The
Banket
was
very
sumpteous
,
and
the
Ambassadours
so
Ioyous
of
their
finall
dispatch
,
behaved
themselues
to
their
Maiesties
on
a
kindly
maner
,
according
to
the
ordinary
custom
of
their
Cuntrie
,
by
propining
of
drink
vnto
them
in
name
of
their
Princes
,
which
was
louingly
accepted
and
requited
:
In
commemoration
whereof
,
the
whole
Artillerie
of
that
great
Vessell
were
shot
in
great
number
.
The
three
great
Ships
of
the
Estates
,
lying
in
the
same
Road
neere
by
,
made
correspondance
and
resonance
to
the
number
of
six
score
gret
shot
,
and
thus
