A TRVE RELATION OF THE QVEENS MAJESTIES Return out of HOLLAND AND Of Gods mercifu●l preservation of Her from those great dangers wherein Her Royall Person was engaged both by Sea and Land ALSO Her MAJESTIES Letter sent to the STATES about the stay of Her Ammunition-Ship Written by One in the same Storm and Ship with Her Majestie Printed at York by Stephen Bulkley 1643. By speciall Command A TRVE RELATION OF THE QVEENS MAJESTIES Return out of HOLLAND c. Her Majesties first setting out of Holland with a Navy of fourteen Ships 〈◊〉 19. 1642. THe States Generall of the United Provinces notwithstanding many Arts and means used to perswade the contrary having prepared for Her Majesties Service nine Men of Warr with five lesser Ships for the Baggage Her Majesty on Thursday January the 19 1642 in the Afternoone at Sciveling two Miles from the Hague imbarked in a more threatning then promising Weather The Wind then was so slack that it made little further way that Night then to carry the Ships out of those perillous Shoares where had a Storme risen they had been in very great danger The next day when God had blessed us with Sea-roome enough the Wind began to rise very high and about midnight blew a fearfull and furious Storme which with the intermissions of some howres one day onely Tuesday excepted for six dayes together continued very vehement and terrible And by reason of the often Variation of the winds made a most raging Sea and so very tempestuous that the Ship was many times let to drive and hull it at Sea not being able to make any Saile with safety having been in great danger to be underset by the suddaine gusts and blasts which duck't and drowned the sailes in the Seas In this sad and unsafe condition did we live out all those dayes being tossed and driven to and fro on the Doggar Sands threatning to be our graves in which we had surely been buried if the care of Heaven had not more mercifully come in to our help Her Majesty saw and suffer'd all this so long with a Princely Patience and Courage and then perceiving how little She did advance in Her way to Newcastle took a Resolution there being no English Port else neer where She might safely adventure Her Person rather to return for Holland then to tug on and work out Her Way with contrary Winds and Weathers in such enraged Seas It was presented and pressed to Her Majesty That if any storme should arise and meet Her in that Shoare the danger would be greater then in the open Seas where She was Her Ship being tydie and good The * Sir Martin Van Tromp Admirall most skilfull and carefull of his Royall Charge and the Masters and Mariners answerably able and willing to doe their best seruice But Her Majesty kept still her resolution to returne Whereupon the Thursday Sennight after Shee imbarked we made our Course for Holland again and the next Day came on the Coast before Sciveling God blessing Her with the freedom from a Tempest in that place of perill where foure Ships had been wrack't of which we saw the bulk and ribs of an English one which had perished in the late Tempests on the shoare before our eyes The Admirall upon his comming in shot off a Peece of Ordinance to give notice of his return which they of the Town took presently and carried to the Hague so that some howers before Her Majesty could get to shoare the Queen of Bohemia the Princesse Royall and other of the Princesses the Prince Elector the Prince and Princesse of Orange with divers Persons of Quality and Honour were all ready in their Coaches at shoare t●redge● attend Her landing and did drive and rid●redge● into the Sea for joy and haste to see tha●redge● happy sight of Her Majesties safety fo●redge● whose great perills heavy feares had lay●redge● upon them all the time of these Tempests That Evening a Fisherboat being foun●redge● out at Sea for contrary Tyde and Wind●redge● would suffer none to come from Land th●redge● Admirall commanded and called it in an ●redge● in it Her Majestie with some Persons o●redge● chief quality not without some dangerou●redge● weltrings of the Boat by reason of the hig●redge● Waves and Sands in that shallow shoar●redge● came at last safe to Land And having rested and refreshed Her Self some time at the Town went after to the Hague to Her Bed that Night On Saturday the next Day after the rest who came in the three Ships with Her Majesty for but three came landed all in safety What was become of the other eleven was not then known but after it was That two missing or mistaking the Admiralls warning went on to Newcastle the propounded Port The others with some leaks and wounds and losses of Masts and sailes and tacklings came in after us or got safe to other Shoares But the two Ships wherein the Horses were one of them was runne on ground all the Men and some Horses being saved onely that wherein the Coachmen were is not yet heard of and therefore feared to be utterly lost All they in Holland who were in great anxietie and fear for the Queen at Sea not having ever known a greater storm by Land were very jocund and joyfull to hear and see Her safety Some said Her Majesty would never have adventured Her Self to Sea in such a Weather but to shew That a Queen feared not to be drowned Others thought that some Witches were made use of to raise those Winds But all saw That if any such villany came from Hell it was curb'd by Heaven in the mercifull preservation of the Queen and that When God will help the Divell cannot hurt us Her Majesty was entertained at the Hague by the Prince of Orange all the time of her last stay which was from Fryday January 27. to February the 13. And then 7. greater Ships being got ready for Her Majesty and five lesser for the Baggage with one of Her own bought before and now laden with Ammunition thirteen in all On Munday afternoon She went to S●iveling and in that poore Fisher-Towne lodged three Nights upon an unexpected occasion For Her Ammunition-ship in the River of the Maze was watched by two Parliament ships as they call them the Providence and Greyhound who gave out that they would take that Ship or fire it o●redge● sink it or sink with it Her Majesty knowing how much the Kings Service and his good Subjects and Souldiers in the North were concerned in it resolved not to goe without it but to stay there till Shee had it The Admirall hereupon having this Warrant from the States Generall and the Prince of Orange went with two Men of Warre to fetch it off and was bringing it away But was met and bourded and charged by the States of Holland the Provincials as they call them to have that Ship searched for Arms and not to carry it further but the Arms to
