then at the crosse in Cheape but otherwise saluted as with varietye of spéeches all sundry sorts of Mvsiques by the Cittie appoinied two as that at the little Cunduit all else but the Exchange gratious street on the top of this pageant was placed a Globe of a goodly preperation this whil wondring at the glory of it setting on vnawares were they on the Pageant at Templebarre neither great

of all in an Oration that a thousand giue him his due deseruing commendations In the Strand was also an other of smal motion a piramides fitly beséeming time place but the day far spent the King States I am sure wearied with the shows as the stomack may gluttō the daintiest courts staid not long but passed forward to the place appointed when I leaue them to Gods protection their owne pleasures Thus you haue hard a short description of this dayes progresse in which all the Peares and Lords of England part of Scotland were assembled to beautifie the Triumphs of their most gracious King The multitude of people at this present were innumerable but to conclude God be thanked for it such was the great care of the worshipfull Cittizens of London al things so prouidently foreséene by them that little or no hurt or daunger ensued to any which was greatly feared of many to haue hapned by reason of the great multitudes that were in the Cittie being come both farre néere thither to sée this most glorious happy show And I beséech the Almighty God of his infinite mercy and goodnes so kéepe our King Queene and Prince and all their princely progenie that no harm neuer come neere them nor touch thē but that they may euer liue to his gret glory to maintaine his must glorious Gospell for euermore Amen FINIS
