Vindiciae Carolinae Being a true Relation of His Highnesse the Prince of Wales His Voyage at Sea since he parted from Calais in France July 20. untill this very day 1648. IT Holds not alwaies that the best and most virtuous Princes finde faithfull and obedient Subj●cts but rather on the contrary clemency and goodnesse are requited with strange unthankfulnesse or monstrous Rebellions The present and sad experience of His Majesty the King of England who was borne to the most unquestioned Right of three Imperiall Crownes sees them all in a raging fit of a distempered Rebellion his Queene forced to flee away for refuge and protection The Prince the Heire apparent to the Crowne with other the Royall Branches enduring a base imprisonment or a forced absence and Majesty it selfe confinde by the bloody O●dnances of cruell and barbarous Traytors who first pretending a Reformation and at last blaspheming more freely to a Saint-ship have violated all the Rules of duty to God and man squaring all things acording to the humor of their fancy and thereby tumbling the world into another Chaos and new confusion The King for many yeares past hath endeavoured to correct these bold presumptions by meeting impudent Rebellion in the field but the torrent swelling too high His Majesty was over borne and what he could not compleate by a Martiall power he suffers for though an unworthy imprisonment by an Angelicall patience in whose sad afflictions all Loyall Subjects and good Christians beare a part and share and now providence hath given some advantage to an Illustrious and hopefull Prince to enter on the scene and act a part in this bloody Tragedy who after two yeares continuance in France with his Royall Mother the Queene at length takes his leave making his first j●urney to Calais and after a few dayes continuance there prepares himselfe for a passage into Holland which succeeded with a prosperous Gale and being aboard a States man of war on Munday the 13. of July stilo veceri His Highnesse arived at Helversluce the next day following in the afternoon but before he put his foot in shooe he had the happy view of a Noble part of the Royall Navy where the Duke of York attended with many Loyall hearts had their expectations filled with overflowing joyes Their showting and acclamations were exceeding high for such an accesse of happinesse and the Seamen and Cannons plaid their parts and with their loud voices roared out their joyfull apprehentions filling the Region of the Ayre and tryumphing over the waters with high expressions of chearfullnes that th● Prince of wales was now with them And now the tide of rejoicing past over His Hignesse goes on shore and having suddenly met with the Duke of Yorke the two Princes congratulated their happy meeting and with love unspeakable embraced each other The day following the Prince of O●ange made an early visit to the Prince of Wales and the matchlesse Princesse the Princesse Royall made all hast to wait on her Brother thinking every minute too tedious untill she enjoyed His presence The Queene of Bohemia and her family made all possible speed to welcome this Princely Guest and after a few dayes or rather howers spent in salutation the Prince directs His thoughts for a voyage by Sea and minding the businesse of the Navy bids farewell to His Royall friends And on Thursday after His Highnesse arived at Helve●sl uce He went aboard the Admirall where after some second expressions of chearfulnesse he was received with great Testimonies of duty and obedience and the winds not blowing faire for the Downes the command was given to beare Northward towards Yarmouth Rode And upon Saturday following about a in the afternoone the whole Fleet attentending His Highnesse cast Anchor in that Rode where after an hower or two it was resolved that a Gentleman should be sent with a Letter of kindenesse and with certaine heads of the Princes Declaration the better to invite and animate that Corporation to their obedience But some of the enimies Troopers guarding the Shore forced the Messenger to returne to the Navy Re infecta so by rhat interuption the Princes good intentions to the Towne and the Townsmen good affections to the Prince were not understood at that time The next day being Sunday the Navy floting on the Sea and the people amazed in the Towne both continued in great admiration of each other the Fleet wondred at the peoples strange undutifulnesse towards their Prince and the People scar'd into a timerous and benummed neutrality stared towards the Fleete with various distracted affections The distempers and discomposures in the Towne were very furious for a fit at last their feare exceeded their love and Honour to their Prince and forgetting what an opportunity they had to welcome their Prince so grea a stranger that night was spent in frozen cold expressions and the night approaching summoned rest and silence for that season In the Morning some petty expressions of du●y dared to appeare and His Highnesse had a taste of some loyall Adventures which by boat came to the Admirall from persons well affected and deeply touched with the sence of so great persons neernesse to the Towne And after a while betwixt 6 and 7 of the clock on munday morning the Townsmen having summoned their wits together the day before it was resolved in a publique meeting That one of the Aldermen of the Towne should come and visit the Prince and accordingly a small Boat being set off from the shore a trim Townsman neatly drest up in a great double Ruffe and in his satten doublet speedily came to the Admirall where having performed his devoir to the Prince he out with his purse and impu●ently told His Highnesse that the Towne was resolved to admit no forces of either side But if His Highnesse pleased to command any refreshments from the Towne His pleasure should be obeyed His Highnesse then considering the staggering humor of the People or rather more seriously the casuall condition of the Towne so nearly waited on by a malicious enemy accepted the motion of refreshments and having Ordred commands for that purpose the word was given for the whole Fleet to waigh Anchor and the winde being courteous to hoyse up sayles and to steere towards the Downes which motion being observed by the Townesmen they were free with their Canon at our farewell and they discharged their O●dnance round the Towne which was interpreted a testimony of their cheerefulnes and loyalty rather then of their feare or neglect On the Wednesday following the Navy came with a fayre quarter wind into the Downes at whose first approach the two fair Castles of Deale and Sandowne discharged their Ordnance for joy and the severalll ships were mutuall and kind in their expressions and now the whole fleet having cast anchor in the Downes fresh occasions were given for better advantages Some designes were proposed for enriching and encreasing of the Navy that the Seamen might prove
