serve for the ensuing Parliament which was to set down on the 25th then instant were honest Patriots and well affected to his Majesty and that they would labour indubitably for the re-establishment of the King assoon as it should be compleat and that their sitting down would certainly commence the day prefixed and appointed From that time forward there passed not a day almost that the King received not some remarkable News upon which he might ground infallible hopes of his Restauration On the 15th of the same Moneth Sr. John Greenvile since Earl of Bath and Sr. John Boys brought him Intelligence of the deseat of Gen. Lambert he had been Prisoner in the Tower of London by vertue of an Ordinance of the Council of State and had made an escape thence with design to put himself in the head of those who were strugling to continue the Anarchy and our Ruine but he was suddenly supprest and taken by Col. Ingoldsby 〈◊〉 Edge-hill where to the greater Honour and content of the King and his Felicity the last dying effort of the Rebellion was quell'd where its first potent Arms opposed it self against his Royal Father Remarkable also was the manner of the dissipation of those Rebels for never did Lambert betray such meanness and abjection of Spirit as in that rendition of himself to his formerly fellow-Colonel a most evident sign that God had consternated and utterly confounded them not only one among and against another but even in themselves perplexing and distracting their thoughts and dashing and turning their greatest Resolutions He was brought back to his former Prison the Tower and there better secured and since removed to the Isle of Jersey The King received the same day Letters from General Montagne then riding in the Downs which assured him of the good estate of the Affaires of the Kingdom and of the sincerity of his Intentions of which he had already given Proofs many moneths before when S. George Boeth took up Arms for the King in Cheshire Now his Majesty thought it time to appear to his People The Kings Letters and Declarations to Parliament and Army and City from out of that obscurity wherein his hard Fortunes had so long while concealed him which he did with such a sudden Brightness that struck Joy and Chearsulness into the Eyes and Faces of all his Subjects For presently he sent away the Lord Viscount Mordant and Sr. John Greenvile to London with his Declaration and Letters dated from this place to the 2 Houses and the Lord Mayor and Common Council of the said City and the General and Officers of the Army who arrived soon after the sitting down of the Parliament and on the 2 of May delivered them to the Speakers That Sacred Name of the King which not long time was the aversion and abhorrence of base mechanick fellows and Phanaticks was heard with veneration and inspired into that Illustrious Assembly such extraordinary and advantageous motions for the King that it is impossible to express them It will be enough for the honour thereof to say that whereas not above 3 or 4 moneths before it had been a Crime of High Treason to speak in Parliament in behalf of the King no sooner now is that great name pronounced than a general Joy appeared in the countenances of all the Commons and most high and dutiful Respects for that Divine Character By Vote of the Houses therefore Sr. John is desired to enter the Speakers receive the Kings Letters from his hand the Clerk read them every one in the mean time with the greatest expressive submission in the world standing bare-headed His majesty had thereunto as before said added a most excellent Declaration for the safety and repose of those who cortur'd in their thoughts for having partaken in the Rebellion might fear the punishment of it and in that fear might oppose the tranquility of the State and the calling in of their Lawful Prince There never was seen a more perfect Assembly of all the most excellent natural Quilities and of all the vertues as well Royal as Christian where with a great Prince may be endowed than was found in those two wonderful Productions as was evident in their acceptance and entertainment They were full of Piety and Zeal for the Glory of God and for Religion of tenderness towards the Afflictions of his People Esteem for the Parliament Firmness for the Conservation of his own Rights an admirable Prudence for the regulating of Affairs and an inexemplar conduct for the re-establishing of the Government in its former state Love for the good indulgence for the seduced and a more than Christian Clemency for Criminals or rather for Crime it self for a Crime I say so black and so abominable that as there was not an Example of it in History since the Creation of the world so his Majesty hath not altogether been so wrought upon by his innate Goodness as to let it pass for an example unpunished to Future Ages Both these Papers wrought the Effect which the King promised himself from them since they absolutely gained the hearts of the people which the miseries of the time past had already very much disposed to the acknowledging their Prince For they were no sooner read but the Parliament declared that the Tenders and Sentiments of the King were Gracious Good and Generous and Conformable to the Fundamental Laws of the Kingdom the Government whereof ought to confist of King Lords and Commons and forthwith ordered that most humble Thanks should be returned to his Majesty for the Gracious Letters and Declarations aforesaid and that for a present supply of his Majesties occasions and in order to speed his Return the sum of fifty thousand Pounds was appointed for a Present to which the City of London added ten thousand more They likewise ordered that General Montague should sayl with his Fleet to attend the Kings Pleasure on the Coasts of Holland That the Two Houses and City of London should send Commissioners respectively from them to beseech him to come and take possession of his Kingdoms which God and his Right had given him and that in the mean time Sr. John Greenvile should be disparched with the Parliaments Answer and should carry to Brada the Resolutions and Prayers of the Two Houses or rather the impatience which the Nation had to see again their Natural Soveraign after a sad absence of many calamitous and miserable years But that which was most remarkable in these Resolutions was that they were not taken after a long contestation consult or dispure nor upon a simple acquiescement of the Parliament in a major Vote but by the express Suffrages and Votes upon the universal and unanimous consent of all the Members of both Houses who strove in aeleg mulation of each other which should give the greatest Proof of Affection The Parliament also gave Liberty to the Noble General to send Mr. Clarges now Sr. Thomas being Knighted by the King at Breda his

Jessop Clerk of the Commons House of Parliament The Proclamation being ended the Lords and Commons took their Coaches and proceeded in this order First the Head-Bâ—yliffe of Westminster and his Servants did ride along with white staves to prepare the way Then followed a gallant Troop of Officers of the Army and other Gentlemen with Trumpets before them then the Life-guard very stately mounted and richly cloathed after them a Class of six Trumpets and three Heralds then a Herald between the Serjeant to the Commons and the Mace of the Council next Mr. Ryley King at Arms in his rich Coat of â—he Kings Arms between Serjeant Norfolk and Serjeant Middlâ— after whom came the Usher of the Black Rod and Mr. Bish together These thus ushering the way came the Right Honourable the Eatl of Manchester in his Coach and six Horses the Speaker of the House of Commons in his then his Excellency the Lord General Monk in his after which followed both Houses of Lords and Commons some in Coaches of six Horses some four some two and then a Troop of Horse In this manner they came to Whitehal where they proclaimed his Majesty a second time and then in like Order proceeded Being come to Arundel House they made a stand where Mr. Ryley King at Arms taking one of the Heralds and six Trumpets with him advanced forward toward Temple-Bar perceiving at a distance the Gates open he paused a while Col. Alderman Bateman and some other Gentlemen came to acquaint him that the Lord Mayor Aldermen Colonels and other Officers of the City were there ready to receive him Whereupon the King at Arms having some Discourse with the Colonel the Colonel went back to Temple-Bar and caused the Gates to be shut upon this the King at Arms with Trumpets before him went to the Gate knocked and demanded Entrance The Lord Mayor appointed some to ask who it was that knocked the King at Arms replied that if they would open the Wicket and desire the Lord Mayor to come to the Gate he would deliver to him his Message The Lord Mayor came on Horseback attended with several Officers to the Gate and Col. Bateman told the King of Arms that he might now deliver his Message to the Lord Mayor who was come to receive it The Trumpets immediatly sounded after which silence being made it was demanded of the King of Arms Who he was and what was his Message to which he answered on Horseback with his Hat on We are the Heralds at Arms appointed and commanded by the Lords and Commons in Parliament Assembled to demand Entrance into the Famous City of London to Proclaim Charles the Second King of England Scotland and Ireland and we expect your speedy Answer to this Demand To this they returned If it please you Sir to have a little Patience we shall speedily give you an Answer to your Message shutting the wicker again After some little conference between the Lord Mayor and Aldermen the Colonel returned and opening the Wicker told the King at Arms That his Message was accepted and the Gates should be immediatly opened which was done accordingly The King at Arms entred trumpets sounding before him and was joyfully received by the Lord Mayor in his Crimson Velvet Gown and Hood the Aldermen and Sherisses in Scarlet and the Officers of the Militia gallantly accoutred on Horseback Both sides of the Streets were guarded by the Militia Forces of London from Temple-Bar to the Old Exchange and stood all with their swords drawn as also the Officers and several spectators in Windows The City Horse fell in next the Life-guard then the Lord Mayor and Aldermen after whom the Heralds and the rest as formerly When they came to Chancery Lane end they proclaimed his Majesty a third time where at the Word CHARLES the Second in the Proclamation the King at Arms lifting himself up with more than ordinary cheerfulness and expressing it with a very audible voyce the people presently took it and on a sudden carried it to the Old Exchange which was pursued with such shouts that near a quarter of an hour was spent before silence could be made to read the rest of the Proclamation After this they went to Cheapside where his Majesty was Proclaimed a fourth time where the shouts of the people were so great that though all the Bells in the City rung Bow Bels could not be heard there Thence to the Old Exchange where his Majesty was again Proclaimed and the Solemnity ended The Shouts and Acclamations of the People to this gallant and well ordered Procession are not easily to be exprest The numberless number of Bonefires the Ringing of Bels and shooting off the Guns and the joyful Expressions of the People did declare them beyond the Art of any Pen. The infected Herd of the Vulgar did hereby purifie and cleanse the Ayr of London dispelling those dark Mists of the Rebellion with the thunder of their Applauses and rejoycing at this Solemnity Nor could a less Atonement acquit the frantick multi ude from their mad Tumults and their former Riot at that very Cross So that the Kings felicity consisted not only in redeeming them from Slavery but restoring them to their senses the happy use thereof by the Magick of his excellent Name The whole Solemnity was concluded with Bonesires at every door almost congratulation of Friends and Acquaintance indeed strangers were such then so great the freeness of mens minds concerning this happy and long desired Revolution The like was afterwards done in the Country in the several Cities and Burroughs and with proportionable Triumphs and Gladness At this time the martyred Kings Statue was re-erected at Guild-hall and the Arms of the Commonwealth every where pull'd down and defaced and his Majesties set in their places as likewise restored to their former Stations in Churches and Courts of Judicature wâ— now acted in the Kings name and cancelled that opprobrious stile of the Keepers of the Liberties of England and all Persons in Office or trust impowered to continue and discharge the same in his Majesties Name and by his Authority The King having accepted the Offer of the Deputies of Holland The King accepts the Invitation into Holland and having exprest himself that he intended to come into Holland by water the Estates General understanding thereof gave order that all the Pinnaces and other Barks capable to transport
began to file towards Delf about seven of the Clock in the Morning and immediatly after the Burgers who stood in Battalia in the great place and marched towards the way which goes to Delfe and the Souldiers went to take their Post on the Viverberg where they made a Guard even to the House of Prince Maurice which was prepared to lodge his Majesty The Deputies of the States of Holland being arrived at Delfe and having spoken with those who had complemented the King at Breda and had had the conduct of his Person in the voyage informed his Majesty of the order they had given for his Entrance for his Lodging and Treatment to the end that as their intention was wholly to submit to the Will of his Majesty they might make that to be changed therein which might displease him After the King had given them his approbation and that they had invited the Deputies of the States General to honour this Ceremony with their Presence and to take place immediately after the Kings Coach they gave order that the Coaches should be drawn into a file along the Key of the Suburb After a Complement passed to the King in the name of their Superiours who they informed the King had sent a Member of each Town in their Province to wait upon him which Ceremony was done in the Yacht where the King was His Majesty presently landed and seated himself in the Coach of the Princess Royal which that day carried all the Royal Family The King sate in the midst with his Sister the Duke of York and Glocester sate before and the Prince of Orange in one of the Boots and assoon as they were placed the whole Company began to advance to enter into the Town of Delfe Here the King stayed not according to his first Determination but passed away from his Landing-place through the Ranks of the Citizens in Arms who marched more than the space of a Musket-shot from the Gates on both sides his Coach where they stayed and saluted his Majesty whilst all the Bels rung and the Artillery thundred from the Bulwarks and Rampires of the Town It was near ten of the Clock when his Majesty departed thence The King comes to the Hague and made it eleven when he came at the Hague In the head of the whole Train which met him marched some Trumpets of the Estates clad in their Coats of Crimson Velvet embroydered with Gold and Silver After them came a long File of Officers belonging to the War of young Lords and Gentlemen very gallant and bravely mounted Next to that marched a great number of English Gentlemen and Officers of the Kings House of the two Dukes of the Princess Royal and of the Prince of Aurange After them came Monsieur Wimmenum who had attended the King as chief of the Deputation in the quality of Master of the Ceremonies in his Coach with some Lords in it preceding immediatly that of the Princess Royal which carried his Majesty The Deputies of the Estates General filled the two first after the Kings those of the States of Holland the six following and the other Coaches which in all amounted to the number of seventy and odd each having 6 or 4 Horses were filled with English and Dutch Lords It was by the Dutch confessed that this Entrance so much did they fear of falling short of the due Honours to the King was not made with an extraordinary Pomp and Glory worthy so great a Monarch but it was impossible to make greater Preparations in the time that the King had appointed for it and even then when they were constrained to change in a manner their first Orders which would no doubt have rendred it more Illustrious had it not been for this Change And yet the Crowd was so great because the curiosity of all men to see this miraculous Prince had drawn a great part of the Inhabitants of the neighbour Town to this Entrance that they were constrained to go very softly As soon as the first Coaches were entred into the Court and the King alighted the Deputies of the States General retired and left the Honour of the Reception and Entertainment that day to the Estates of Holland The King being come to His Majesty arrives at the Hague the House prepared for him there met him on the stayr-head his Aunt the Queen of Bohemia led by the Duke of Brunswick Lunenbergh of whom before the Princess Dowager of Orange led by Prince William Frederick of Nassau her son in Law and accompanied with the two Princesses her Daughters Madam the Princess of Nassau and the young Lady of Aurange The King saluted them all being followed by the Deputies of Holland who gave him another small Complement and left him to his Repose at a private Dinner The Princess Royal who had not slept that night before was the first that withdrew and obliged the others by her example to do the like The Queen of Bohemia and the Princess Dowager of Holland followed her so that none staied but the two Dukes who dined with him That done the Toyl of the Journey and the little rest he had taken the two former nights made him desire to withdraw And indeed the States would have made the Musqueteers to forbear shooting who gave continual Volleys if it had been possible to smother the universal Joy which the whole world would express on this occasion For these Volleys answered those of a Bâ—ttery of eight and thirty pieces of Cannon which were planted on the Viverberg re-inforced with another of five and twenty pieces of a greater stamp which they were enforced to plant behind the Cloyster-Church of the Voorhout upon the Rampart in turning the mouth towards the Field for fear the powerful noyse of that Thunder might shake the Wals of the old Palace and all the adjoyning Building The next day the States General after they had sent a Nobleman to know of the King what time he would please to spate to receive that duty which they had resolved to render him by doing reverence to him in a body Prince William of Nassau being in the head of them with their chief military Officers bareheaded before them they went to the Kings Lodgings At their Entrance they were met with by the Lord Crofts accompanied with a great number of Gentlemen and introduced to the King from the stayr-head by the Duke of Ormond The Press was so great that though there were but 25 of the States present yet they could hardly get into the Presence Chamber Being come there the Baron of Gent a Deputy from the Province of Guelders which is a Dutchy and therefore the chief Province of the Union and hâ—d for that reason this Honour to be Speaker to the King delivered himself in these words Sir The States General of the United Provinces of the Low-Countries after having expressed to your Majesty by the Deputies they sent unto you at Breda how they participated in the happy
already spoken of his Table and how the Royal persons that did eat there were seated They served up great Dishes in Oval Form at five Courses each containing five Dishes and 12 Trenchers because they changed the Dishes twice at every Service and every Dish was very massive besides the Load in them there being two dozen of Pheasants in one Dish and all the oâ—her Dishes were served accordingly They served besides that five tables for the Lords and for the Marquess of Worcester c. and one for the Ladies all at four Courses and almost as full and furnished with the same meats as those of the Kings Table except one course which was between the Boyl'd and the Roast All the sweet meats as well at the Kings Table as at the Lords and Ladies were scrambled for at every meal and exposed to the discretion of the people who were ordinarily there at those hours by the King in Crowds And not only they served all sorts of delicious Wines at the Table but the Sources streamed therewith day and night and were never dry as well for the English of what condition soever they were as for all those of the Town that came to demand it Every Table was of twelve Coverings and had its Steward it s four Butlers as many Assistants in the Buttery and twelve men that served up the meat and drink But for the Kings Diet it was particular there was a Clark of the Kitchin for the Broths another for the Courses another for the Pastry one for the Roast and one for the meats between the Courses every Clark having four Cooks under him for each Service There was a rumour spread this day of some attempt intended against the Kings person 't was discovered by a mean Frenchman who was in danger of his Life for overhearing of it in a private place in the Rampart from whence coming out three men espied him who as he said spoke to one another in bad French these words That they failed twice because of the great Number of People that were about him and served him for Guards but they would so well take their Advantage from the two sides of the Coach that he should not escape them He received two shots of a Pistol but the Fellows upon his calling out sled away Upon his persistance in this Affirmation a Guard of Horse were presently added to the Foot a Cornet of whom alwaies stood in the avenues of the Palace where the King was lodged and of which there was alwaies a Squadron which followed his Coach wheresoever he went And forasmuch as it was known that there was found in the Fleet a man bold enough when the King should come to see the Vessel where he served as a Mariner to give fire to the Powder an Order was made by the General as he himself did that every Captain should take the Key of the Powder to himself This invited the King to chuse a Guard of fourscore Gentlemen which are now improved into a greater number under the command of the Lord Gerard Captain of the Life-guard which served by squadrons so that there was alwaies twenty which marched on both sides the Coach having one hand on the supporting staffe of the Boot and holding a sword drawn out of the Belt but in the Scabberd in the other But as this Posture was somwhat irregular and offensive in a Country where the Person of his Majesty was no less dear than in his Kingdoms the King considering that to hinder approach to his Person was sufficient to secure it would that they should wear their Swords by their sides and carry a Cane in their hands which assured the Passage and also made their Quality and Charge to be respected On Sunday the 20th of May The States of Holland dine privately with the King the States of Holland by their Deputies dined in private with the King and that nothing might be wanting to the Testimonies of Affection which the Estates would render to his Majesty they ordained the same day that all kind of refreshments should be sent to the Admirals Ship to the Vice-Admirals and the Reer-Admirals to be afterwards distributed to the whole Fleet. They communicated thereupon with their Admiral Lieutenant and caused so much Wine Victuals Citrons and Oranges to be bought and sent that the Lord Montague confessed that he never saw so much Notwithstanding they sent them not aboard before the King had fixed on the day of his Embarquement when they were carried aboard the Admiral to whose disposal they were left The Estates wrote also to the Colledge of the Admiralty to provide such a number of Hoyes other vessels as the officers of the Kings stable of the Duke of York and Glocester should judge necessary for the transporting of the Horses and of a part of his Majesties Baggage and of their Royal Highnesses and Order was given that they should be stabled and kept in the Town of Rotterdam till they could be embarqued and that the ships should be provided of Hay Oats and Straw for the time that probably they might be upon the Sea Friday the 18th of May the Estates General who knew they should highly please the King in doing such a civility to him The English Commissioners complemented deputed three of their Lords to go with a Complement to the Commissioners of the 2 Houses of Parliament and of the City of London upon the present Estate of Affairs in England The Lords Commissioners of the House of Peers assembled in the House of the Earl of Oxf. who was lodged at M. Buysero's Greffier or Secretary of the Council to the Pr. of Aurange the said Noble Earl having at that time a Regiment as his warlike Progenitors before in the States Service and the Commissioners of the Lower House were lodged in the House of the Baron of Asperen and received this Civility from them with much satisfaction Innumerable in the mean while was the Concourse of People and as multiplied the Excesses of those Kindnesses done to any that could but say he pertained to the King of Great Britain no other Business being minded but what concerned the Honour and Pleasure of the King in which they thought themselves never too much sedulous and diligent The same day the Estates of Holland having deliberated upon the recommendation which the King had made them when they saluted his Majesty in a body of some persons and English Officers which were in the Service of that State whose Duty and Affection which they expressed unto him in the midst of his Affliction as well for his Interests as those of his Sister and Nephew the Prince of Aurange now minded him of their Concerns did ordain that the five Regiments of Scots Foot which were reformed and reduced to two in the year 1655. should be brought again to their first estate in behalf of Lieut. Col. Henderson whom the King respected and that the Command of the third should be given
unto him with the Quality of Colonel On the same consideration they gave a Troop of Horse to Mr. Kâ—rkhoven Baron of Wooton Son of the Deceased Lord Heenvhâ—t and the Countess of Stanhop being in the room of his Father great Forrester of Holland and Superintendant of his Highnesses the Prince of Auranges Affairs Another Complement was also Ordered to be given the aforesaid Commissioners of England A Speech made to the Commissioners of Parliament by Deputies from the Province of Hol. the sum whereof meeting them in the same place where the Deputies of the States General saluted them being uttered by M. Wimmenum was this That the Lords the Estates of Hol. who had so much caus to rejoyce for that great Catastrophe which they saw in Eng. could not be silent in that wonderful juncture and in that publick and universal Joy but found themselves obliged to express it to thens that contributed most to it and were the principal Authors thereof That the Parliament of England had this Advantage to be as the Foundation of the Estate but that those which compose it now had gained this Glory to all Posterity that they had not only drawn the Kingdom from its greatest Calamity to carry it to the highest Felicity but also that they had been the first of the three Kingdoms to declare themselves for so Glorious an Undertaking That the Lords Estates who in the Anarcâ—y and disorder had for their parts retained their due sentiments of the English Nation though necessitated to a War which was meerly personal on the English side against a Faction and prevalent Party did take this happy advantage of assuring their Lordships of the Perseverance of their Affection and prayed God for the continuance of the Prosperity in the Kingdoms of his Majesties Dominions and of their Persons in particular with all the fervency and earnestness that might be expected from an allied State and from Persons perfectly affectioned to their Good and Interests To this the Commissioners answered by the mouth of those Noblemen that spoke to the King That they thanked the States for their great Affection to the King and his Kingdoms the memory whereof they should alwaies keep and particularly for the pains they had taken in coming to give them a Visit with such Assurances of their Respect and Friendship which they would endeavour to require by their personal Services and by a perpetual and inviolable Amity with that Republick and so conducted them to their Coaches On the 19th of May Sixty thousand Pound added to the expence for the Kings Entertainment an Addition of threescore thousand Pound was Ordered for the Expence which they would now magnificently bestow on the Kings Entertainment the States intending to make him a Feast and to give him and his Brothers some Presents upon which account they thought also fit to furnish for his Majesty the Bed and Appurtenances which the last Deceased Prince of Aurange had caused to be made for the lying in of the Princess Royal and which she never used because of the death of the Pâ— her husband who deceased eight dayes before the Birth of the Prince his Son This Bed is without doubt the fairest and richest that ever was made at Paris and besides the Tester the Seats and Skreens the Hangings and the other pieces necessary to make a Furniture compleat the Estates would add thereunto a most perfect fair Hanging of the richest Tapestry embossed with Gold and Silver which they caused to be made of purpose with a great number of excellent Pictures as well of Italy as of other Countries both ancient and modern and whatsoever can adorn a Chamber worthy to lodge so great a Monarch in his greatest Magnificence It is now set up at Hampton-Court The Council of State ordained also that all the Fisher-Barks of the Villages of Scheveling and of Heyde should be stayed for the Service of the State Order given for the Embarquement of the Baggage to the end to serve the imbarquement of the Court and Kings Baggage and that for the same purpose the Village of Catwyck on the Sea and other Dorps adjacent should send 20 Barks and caused 30 open Waggons to be made ready also to bring the said Baggage down to Scheveling the Monday following being the 21th with 40 close Waggons to conduct the Train on Tuesday which was the day that the King had designed for his departure though deferred till Wednesday as we shall see hereafter The same day the Duke of York accompanied with the Duke of Brunswick Lunenburg The Duke of York taketh the Oath of Allegiance from the Mariners and with a great number of English Dutch Lords and Gentlemen went to Scheveling to take the Mariners Oaths of Fidelity in quality of Admiral of England but the Wind being contrary and the Sea boysterous the Lord Montague thought it not fit to send Boats from aboard him to fetch his Royal Highness and the Fishermen of the Village refused likewise to put him aboard so that he was forced to return to the Hague to Dinner At this time came also the Ambassadour of the Marquess of Brandenburg The Ambassadour of the Marquess of Brandenburgh his audience Monsieur Weyman to salute the King upon his restitution brought in by Prince Maurice of Nassau the same that was extraordinary Ambassadour here since from the said Elector after the King had answered the Complement they spake of indifferent Affairs which have nothing common with this Relation Monsieur Vicque first Resident with the States Ambassanours likewise from the Landgrave of Hesse for the Landgrave of Hessen made likewise his Complement for the Prince his Master which was so much the better received as in his particular he had an Occasion in the business of the Palatinate to which House he hath constantly bin allied to render most important Service to his Majesty as well as the Deceased King his Father He had the Honour to do reverence to his Majesty at Breda with the Duke of Lunenburg where the King remembred the affection which he had for his Service The King added so sensibly did the touches of other afflicted Princes condition incite him to a generous Sympathy and protested himself as well as his Father obliged to the Duke of Curland who had in the War in England supplied him with Arms and Ammunition and that he never would fail to acknowledge those good Offices done them both during the Disorders of his Kingdoms After these verbal Ceremonies were past other oral as we may say followed several Invitations were made from the Ambassadours to the Lords of the Kings Train to dine with them the Ambassadour of France had treated the Earl of St. Albans and the Lord Crofts and some other Lords at a Dinner and the Spanish Ambassadour was bespoke by the two Dukes of York and Glocester being of long Familiarity with him to entertain them at his House where before the Marquess of Ormond had been
but seven Tables with the Kings besides the servants but this day there were sixteen seven of which were served as ordinarily in the other appartments of the Kings House and the rest in the Costellary where expresse order was given to receive and treat all the English that should come The expence of this entertainment was not particularly known by reason the States would not make any brags of their Cost but the King was greatly pleased with the magnificence thereof as he expressed himself to one of the States the next day affirming that he never Supped better then the day he arrived at the Hague and that in all the feasts which were made as well in France Spain and Germany and in the Low-Countreys and among others that which the Arch-Duke Leopoldus made in the Month of May 1656. when he was going out of the Low-Countreys into Germany he saw nothing come near that wherewith the states of Holland had now entertained him As soon as the Estates began to drink the Kings Health they gave the signall with a Torch at one of the Windows which looked towards the Viver where the Artillery was placed which presently was fired to which answerd the Musquet and the Carbines of the Horse and the Cannon from the Rampart and this at four several times which was as the intermedial Musick of that which passed in the Palace during supper whilst it lasted there was made to come forth from a boat which was in the midst of that viver or pond which washeth the Foot of Prince Maurice his House aswel as oâ—e whole Palace an infinite number of squibs and of other artificial Fireworks which gave a most pleasant divertisement to the people the whole night On Monday the 21. the States having notice that the King intended to depart in his voyage the day following desired to know how they should wait upon him to make him their last complement either in body or by Deputies But the King to do them an extraordinary honour in recompence of those great civilities he had received from them acquainted them by a messenger of his own that the next day his voyage being deferred till Wednesday he would make them a visit in person in the place of their Assembly They would have been glad if they could have dispensed themselves from receiving so great an honour but they chose to be loaden with civility at home then to commit an incivility in opposing the will of the King The Estates of Holland likewise to whom the King signified by one of the Secretaries of his Commands that he would do them the same honour received the advertisement thereof with the same respect and both one and t'other after they had agreed with the Ministers of the Court how they intended to receive his Majesty with all the submission they should be able to render to so good a Prince and so great Monarch they both gave necessary orders in their several Assemblies for this glorious and illustrious visit The Speech of the Lorâ—s of Zeland In the mean time the Estates of Zeland and Friesland sent their Deputies a part to congratulate the King who were received with the same Ceremony as the the King had used to the other Provinces At their Audience Mounsier De Veth Pensionary Councellor of Zeland bespoke the King in these words Sir we are here from the Lords the Estates of Zeland to do reverence to your Majesty and to assure you of our most humble and respectfull services we represent Sir and acknowledge in the person and sight of your Majesty the favours and assistances which our Province hath from all time received from the Kings of Great Brittain your most famous Predecessours and so we cannot but felicitate you and expresse the joy we have to see the grace which God would do unto your Majesty in this admirable revolution of Affairs wherewith your Majesty should be so much the more touched as neither you nor the rest of the world presumed so much as to hope it If Great Brittain hath made Bon-fires at the Birth of your Majesty what should we do now in this marvellous Conjuncture where we see all the Artifices and attempts of your enemies disappointed and overthrown your Royall Person miraculously reestablished in the Throne of your Ancestors and your Crown to speak truth sent from Heaven rather then put upon the head of your Majesty by the hand of man so we need not doubt that God who is the particular Protector of Kings who raises at this time your Majesty by wayes so Extraordinary will not fail to uphold you by that powerfull hand which laid it on the Royal head and that whole Christendome derives not advantages from thence which cannot be ordinary since that God by whom your Majesty reigns so visibly will make it so that you shall reign for him efficaciously in rendring the good and repose of his Church inseparable from the interests of your estate And hence shall it be Sir that as from an inexhaustible spring upon the Counsells and actions of your Majesty shall flow all the blessings of Heaven which shall settle the repose of your Estate and assure the Scepter in your hands for the comfort of your People for the protection of your Allies for the Terror of your Enemies and for the establishment of a perpetual peace in all Christendome to the exaltation of the great name of God and to the particular glory of your Majesty Especially we hope that this favourable occasion will serve to tye more strongly the Knot of the Alliance which from time to time hath been so carefully maintained between Great Brittain and this Commonwealth particularly if her Highness the Princesse Royal who is so notably interessed in the prosperity of both will labour herein with the care which we promise us from her Goodnesse These are the most ardent prayers Sir which the Lords the Estates of Zeland your very humble Servants make unto God and which they hope will be heard in due time The Count of Oldenburgh the powerfullest Count of Germany and allyed to the Royal house of Denmarke whose heir he is in case of faylure no other Prince or State having by expresse Letters of Credence to the King by their Ministers congratulated his Majesty upon the happinesse of his affairs sent Monsieur Cotteritz his Councellor of State purposely on the Errand the King received him with all honour and respect and gave him a most obliging answer for the complement This One and Twentieth of May The Duke of York goeth aboard the English Fleet. the Duke of York who was hindred on Saturday the 19. from going aboard the Fleet as we have said by the storm embarqued himself and came on board the General It was thought necessary by the Kings Councill to disengage the Officers and Marriners of the Oath which they had taken to the last Parliament and to be assured thereof by a new Oath of Fidelity to the King their
