Iames towards Richmond where being come towards euening he supped and reposed himselfe for that night Next morning being Thursday about nine of the clocke he tooke water to returne againe to London attended only with some few Barges of his owne followers and such Noblemen and others as accompanied him thither the day before Passing softly downe the streame he was seuerally encountered by diuers Lord swhich came to meete him on the way the Thames began soone to flote with Botes and Barges hasting from all parts to meete him and the shores on eyther side where conueniency of place would giue way to their desires swarmed with multitudes of people which stood wayting with greedy eyes to beholde his triumphant passage About eleuen of the clocke vnderstanding that the tide was falne so low as there would not be conuenient roome for all the Barges in his traine to go orderly downe notwithstanding his first appointment was to haue come to London about noone and dinner prepared for him accordingly at White-hall hee made stay at Barne-Elmes and there landing refreshed himselfe in an Arbour by the water side and tooke a short repast of such sweete meats and other things as could there be prouided on the sudden By this time the Lord Mayor and Aldermen of London with the seuerall Companies of the Citie honorably furnish't and appointed and disposed in faire order were ready attending with a great traine and sumptuous showe to receiue his highnesse at Chelsey their Barges deck't with banners streamers and ensignes and sundry sortes of loud-sounding Instruments aptly placed amongst them There were also two artificiall Sea-monsters one in fashion of a Whale the other like a Dolphin with persons richly apparrelled sitting vpon them who at the meeting and parting of the Lord Mayor and his company with the Prince were to deliuer certaine speeches vnto him In this goodly manner this well furnish't Fleete of the City receiued his Highnes somewhat beyond Chelsey about two of the

and conducting his ioyfull passage to the Citie Next after the Princes Barge followed his seruants the Barges of sundry Noblemen and others which had met him on the way and on euery side such a confused company of Botes of all sortes fraught with beholders as it seemed the Riuer though then enlarged to her vtmost limits by the tides friendly aduantage was too little to containe them as likewise the land on eyther shore which neuer felt the weight of such an infinity of people vpon any former occasion Approaching neereto VVhite hall the King and Queene with the young Duke of Yorke and Lady Elizabeth stood in the priuie Gallerie window to see the order of their comming and that his Maiestie might take the better viewe of the Lord Mayor and Citizens show they were appointed to

there landed his landing being congratulated with a loude peale of Chambers from the other side of the water which in their thundring voyces carried vp to the skie the ioy of the peoples hearts conueyed in the issue of these happy triumphs At his highnesse comming on shore his seruants attended vpon the bridge to receiue him making a Guard for him to passe thorow to the hall where he was entertained by the Lord Knols and the Lord Wotton Treasurer and Controller of the houshold likewise in the great chamber by Vicount Fenton Captaine of the Guard in the Presence by the Earle of
