Holland did it comprehensively for all of them and that it would be unseemly to incommodate his Majesty with so many Visits so that by this means the University of Leyden then in a readiness was put by from their address and Gratulations Indeed there would have been no end of those Ceremonies otherwise so passionately did each place and degree of men strive to shew their joy and affection for his Majesty therefore not to clog the Reader we will forbear any particular Narratives concerning them Come we now to the manner of the Entertainment of the King at Dinner The manner of the Entertainment of the King at Dinner for which as before said a Sum of 30000 l. from the day of his coming to the Hague was alotted as a foundation for expences till he should depart in his Voyage seven Lords were appoynted to attend constantly at his meat and see the Royal Family served The Table was doubly furnished at the head of which and in the midst sate the King having on his left hand the Princess Royal and on his right his Aunt the Queen of BohemiA At the end of the Table on the same side were the Dukes of York and Glocester and at the other end by the Princess Royal was the Prince of Aurange her Son This Order was observed in all Repasts only in the absence of the Prince of Aurange the two Princes his Majesties Brothers separated and placed themselves at the two ends of the Table By this means one could well serve all those that were there because they were all at a certain distance which permitted the Officers to do their Functions and places as also the Deputies of the Estates left space enough between the Kings Table and theirs for the convenrence of those which served the meat before the Royal persons putting themselves at the two ends of the skirt before the King who would not that the Deputies Table should be separated from his There was commonly a Set of Violins which played and divertised the King during Dinner and in the Healths that were drunk as the King never failed almost to drink the Prosperity of the States the Cannon of the Viverberg thundred from every Battery On the 16th day of May Audience of the Commissioners before his Majesty after his Majesty had dined the Commissioners of Parliament and the City of London came to do reverence to his Majesty They came from the House where the extraordinary Ambassadours are lodged and the military house of the Citizens in this Order both the Lords and the other went forth afoot walking two and two having before them a very great number of Gentlemen Among them the Lord Fairfax drew upon him the curiosity and eyes of all men as known to them by name to have been Captain General of the Parliaments Army he desired to see the King privately and to ask him pardon for the past Offence with all submission which afterwards he did Being brought into the Kings Chamber they made a very low and most submiss Reverence The Earl of Oxford spake for the higher House in a short but pithy Oration Denzil Hollis for the House of Commons whose Elegant Speech is Printed at large the Occasion of which Publication was some exceptions or sinister Reports made of it and therefore that Lord vindicated himself and it He insisted therein chiefly upon the miseries under which the Nation had so long groaned and upon the Usurpation and Tyranny of Cromwel whereas on the contrary they were assured by his Majesties innate Goodness as well as indubitable Right of enjoying themselves their Lands and Liberties in a full repose and serenity of Peace beseeching him in the Name of the people of England to return forthwith into his Kingdom and to resume again the Scepter of his Ancestors â—ee and unburdened from any Conditions or Limitations as Sr. John Greenvile had before reâ—orted The King received them with much Frankness together with the protestations of obedience Fidelity which they made him in the Name of the Lords and Commons of England and of the City of London in particular whose 〈◊〉 to the King were expressed and delivâ— by Sir William Wyld the Recorder in few but sincere words and therewithal gave them his hand to kiss and welcomed them After they had taken leave of the King they addressed themselves to the Dukes to whom they rendered the Complements from the Parliament and City and thence in the same order on Foot to the Qâ—en of Bohemia and the Princess Royal where they performed after the same manner To compleat this Gratulation both from home and abroad from States Parliaments Princes Kings The Emperors Resident complements the Kiâ— the Emperours Resident at the Hague had also Audience of the King declaring unto him that this change of his Affairs would be the most welcom News to his Master in the world since he hoped his Majesty knew what a sincere Friend and Lover of him and his Interest the Deceased Emperour Ferdinand had on all Occasions expressed himself There was also that day admitted to the Kings Presence the Master of that Barque which conveyed his Majesty from the Coast of Sussex over to Deep in France after his Escape from Worcester The King was well pleased with the sight of him in this turn of his condition which rendred his just greatness now more pleasant to him by that contrariety of Fortune He dismist therefore this faithful Person with assurance of his respect and Favour to him The King also received to the honour of his Hand many Persons of Quality who in the impatience to see his Majesty had passed the Sea voluntarily without any particular Commission they all did him Reverence in the same manner the Commissioners had done The English Officers in the pay and Service of the States came and presented themselves to his Majesty among whom was Major Cromwel whose Elder Brother commanded a Regiment whereof he was Major being the Sons of Sr. Oliver Cromwel Unkle to the Usurper the King shewed him no other Countenance than to any of his good Subjects but received him very well permitting them to change their Name of Cromwel into their ancienter name of Williams On the 17th day the Swedish Ambassadour Mr. Coyet had Audience also of the King who in the Close thereof enquired particularly of the young King of Sweden and the Queen Regent and the place of his Breeding and so with usual Civilities dismist him professing his desire and readiness to continue the Allyance between the two Crowns The rest of that day was spent in private Conferences with the Commissioners of the Parliament It will now not be amiss to our purpose since we shall presently speak of the Kings intention to depart The manner how the King was served to speak a word of the manner wherewith the King was served at his ordinary Repasts and of the estate of the expence which was made every day for his Majesty having
