The royal, rare, and most honourable entertainment of the famous King, Christian the 4. King of Denmark etc. since his first arrival on shore, the 17. day of july 1606.  
WHen it pleased GOD, to place the Imperial crown of this most blessed, and famous kingdom, on the head of our most glorious and renowned sovereign King james, it was not a little admired amongst the commons of this land, the honours done his highness, by most Christian Kings, and Princes, who by their Ambassadors, as from France, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Holland, and others, not only presented their honourable loves, and joy for his happiness therein, but desiring peace with his people and state, with love in all honour to be continued amongst them and their nations.  
Their honourable and Christian request, his Highness with all honour embraced, with such kingly conditions, love, and fame, to him and his subjects, as all the Kings and Potentates of the world may admire, and his own people joy in such honoured peace.  
For thereby have our merchants sure and safe traffic to all nations, and they to our land, where they trade at their pleasures.  
Since when, divers nations, which with good regard of those blessings, God hath endued this Realm withal, and the troubles of their own countries, preferring their quiet, above their native country, wealth, and friends, have left their home-born regions, and placed themselves hero with their families: where they live free from those dangers they were subject unto, under the government of a most religious and honourable King, enjoying their wealth without fear, and resting in all tranquillity of mind, and security of their estates, praise God for his excellent Majesty, that so carefully tendereth their lives and safeties, as his own peoples.  
Peace and all happy tranquillity, with so many countries being established, and his Majesty enjoying the blessing of the most high God that placed him, Ambassadors from state to state, oftentimes passed, whereby the Kings from far, received joyful tidings of his royal government, health, and welfare, and his Majesty likewise, from them and their kingdoms. The affinity of blood, and desire of true brotherly love to be continued; which Love is the true loadstone that draweth friends, and moveth the heart to desire the company, which they most honour and esteem oft, as we have read many famous examples of all estates, aswell Princes, as others.  
But in man's memory hath not been heard, (nor hearing) with more rejoicing seen, so ●are and most excellent a sympathy of true and honourable love, as is most apparent, by that most royal King Christian of Denmark: who nothing regarding the dangers of the seas, nor any other accidents, albeit he did often times hear of the gracious and happy estates of our dread sovereign King james, his Royal and most esteemed Princely sister Queen Annc, Prince Henry and their royal issue, that such is his great desire and Kingly affection, that no report what so ever could satisfy his Kingly mind, but in person adventured, to be partaker of their most royal presence, and to participate with them and their mayest call companies, wherein no doubt a most honourable and true combined royal mind is expressed.  
For which honourable intention, his ships of great strength were prepared, & 2. Pinnaces: the Admiral wherein his own person came, being a most huge ship, is esteemed of 1500. Tons: which ship is so adorned with rich gold and very excellent workmanship, as many thousands upon report thereof, of purpose have gone to Gravesend, where she doth side, to view her. Besides, the beauty and riches of this great ship, she is appointed with most huge ordinance, men and victuals, sit for so Kingly a presence. The rest likewise accordingly complete, all rich in Ordinance, men and munition.  
The Kingly attendants of his person, and all others of his train, furnished in apparel very rich and most beautiful, every one in his estate and place: his Counsel and chief men, very decent after their country fashion, richly decked in silk with gold and silver lace, jewels and chains of rare estimation.  
His Pages, and guard of his person, in Blue Velvet laid with Silver Lace, for their best suit, and one suit for to exchange of other silk: whitish coloured Hats, with bands embroidered: most of them, either white or blue stockings: his Trumpeters in white Satin Doublets, Blue Velvet hose trimmed with silk and silver lace, watched cloaks guarded with sundry colours, & white Hats with Blue silk and gold bands embroidered: his common guard of Soldiers, with Muskets furnished, very rich: white Fustian doublets, watched hose with white and Blue Lace, loose Cassocks large and fair, like our footman's coats, with white and Blue lace, Hats with bands suited like: and all his common soldiers, in cassocks and hose of watched colour: the master and his mates, Gunners and chief officers, being very rich in their apparel, his Trunks and other provision for carriage, covered with red Velvet, trimmed with blue Silk and Gold lace: his Sumpter clothes and coverings to cover his lading, of red Velvet, with blue silk, and gold lace, all made after the English fashion.  
For the government of his followers of all sorts, according to his Kingly pleasure, he ordained a Marshal, who had under Marshals many, with great charge from his Majesty, that if any man of his company should be drunk, or otherwise to abuse himself in any manner towards Englishmen, or his own followers, to be punished sharply. such is the royal care and honour of his excellency, which is duly executed.  
All things being ready for the voyage, which with great care of all his officers was accomplished, after a most honourable order taken for government of the Kingdom in his absence, the wind serving fitly, and a heavy parting of the Queen his honoured and most gracious Mother, with the States and chief of the land, with tears of sorrow plentifully shed of his loving subjects, and their hearty prayers zealously made to GOD, for the prosperous success of his Majesty at Sea, and happy arrival to his desirous port, he bade them all farewell, leaving them to their charge, and betook his royal person to the mercy of GOD, that guideth heaven, and earth, and seas, and in all dangers protecteth his people.  
And by God's providence, who sendeth winds at has pleasure after some more than ordinary 〈◊〉 of our dread sovereign and his people 〈◊〉 〈◊〉 co●ming, ● royal fleet had sight of 〈◊〉 〈◊〉, and in safety e●●ed the same, bea 〈…〉 of Tham●s, beholding & with g 〈…〉 pleasure admiring, the sweet and pleasant 〈◊〉 a●d 〈…〉 lay of the Land, not desiring to 〈◊〉, to 〈…〉 his excellent person, until the King's majesty our sovereign came. But applied wi●h h●s shipping, so high as Tilbury hope, a road some two or three miles distant from G●●●s●●d, a Port town in the county of Kent. Where some small way off the road, more near the town, they came to anchor, whereof our gracious King being, by posts advertised: having his Barges ready▪ who being a King replenished with all Kingly courtesy, well considering of those great travels, this Kingly brother had under gone, to see his Highness, the Queen, and their honourable progeny, without long stay this mirror of all honour, King james accompanied with the Prince, his counsel and many of the nobility of the Land, with great store of Countiers which gave their attendance, took their Barges towards T●lbury, where the King in his ship attended his Kingly company. The Denmark's looking earnestly now for the coming of the King, with his company.  
When they came sayte with the towns end at Gravesend, they from the ships descried the barges, and gave notice there of to the King and presently at the command of the Lord admiral of the fleet, the company was by the Boatswains whistles called up, and in all the gallant manner that might be, each man in his Livery, making a gallant show, and noise of Trumpers, after the sea manner, and meeting of friends The Tacklings, tops, and every part of the ship, was so replenished with men, that hardly might you decern the ropes, or see the ships sides.  
The King arriving at the ships side, was entertained most graciously by the Denmark king to his ship, with the Prince, Nobles, and Gentlemen of his train. Which by King james, the Prince, and Nobles, was again requited with Kingly embracings, and most honourable entertainment to this Country. Like honourable favours and great welcomes were made his followers, by the Counsel of England, and the●●s; to the great joy of all the beholders. One house and something more being spent with great delight aboard the ship: these famous Kings joyed in each others company. The Tide serving, they set forward to the Court.  
The two Kings and the Prince in his barge, were placed, and the Noblemen of England courteously entertained into their companies, the Noble men, and best of the King of Denmark's train.  
The Barges falling off from the ship, after they had ●owed some small way. The Admitall discharged such a thundering peal of Ordinance, whereof many are Cannones of brass, as the smoke dimmed the skies, and their noise was heard a far way off: after her, the vice and rear Admiral, and so all the rest, which made a long peal every ship taking his turn very orderly in exceeding good sort.  
By this time they came to the blockehouses situate near Gravesend, who followed, in discharging their Ordinance in like manner, with such good industry and care as was very well commended, and highly praised of both kings and their companies. This honourably welcome given and received, they pass the river, till they came to Greenwich: where the royal Court of England lay. All the way passing, the royal King of Denmark, with many loving favours showed his hearts joy in embracing the noble & most honourable Prince Henry.  
Being now on our English land, a more kind welcome was again begun, to all the strangers. To behold the multitudes of people which came to see them, was admirable: especially, having so small knowledge of the King's arrival.  
In royal manner they entered the Court at Greenewhich, where our gracious Queen Anne lay. unto whom, you need not doubt, but this happy tidings, and Kingly brother's company was most pleasing and joyful: as appeared at their most royal and kingly meeting, of these most great Prince's brother, and sister: whose travels he holdeth for pleasure, and therein taketh great comfort, enjoying the sight and welfare of so high and mighty a Princess his dear siste. Queen Anne, and so toward and happy issue of their loins, as were present, that in that in them and their presence no Monarch of the earth might think a more happier contentment.  
This night being Friday at night, and the. 7. day of july, the royal Kings reposed themselves in the Court, & Saturday all day and night, with great welcomes and joy of either of them.  
On Sunday the 19 day, King james, accompanied with his brother of Denmark, and Nobility of both kingdoms, very rich in their courtlike attire, The King being in English fashion, went to the Chapel, where they heard a learned Sermon, preached by the Revorend Father, the Bishop of Rochester. By all the way as they passed and returned, the Royal King with admiration, gave great & honourable regard to the multitude of people there present: The honourable state, and gallant managing of the Nobility, and Courtiers, with the rare company of Gentlemen Pensioners, and the Guard in their rich Coats, as he wondered highly, at that rare and most high service and sumptuous attendance.  
The time of dinner being come, the Guard of our King appointed to give their attendance, on the Gentleman Sewer, carried up his Kingly wands, where wanted not any thing, that could possibly be gotten, with Wine and Beer, plentiful, all served up in most honourable manner, with the noise and excellent Music of Drums and Trumpets, which moved his Highness to much delight.  
This mirror of esteemed grace and honour, King JAMES, the glory of all Christendom, for receiving foreign estates, so entertained this pulsant King his brother, in person accompanying him, in all royal pleasures delighting him, and most plentifully feasting him, as shall never be razed out of memory, so long as the world shall have any being. But the Chronicles of these two united and famous Nations, to the end of all ages ensuing, shall record the honours given and received, between these two most famous and royal Brothers, Kings of England and Denmark.  
The dinner finished, & the first Sunday, after his coming to the Court, innumerable was the numbers of Citizens of London, as well of the better sort, and gentry, as the Commons, & other adjoining parishes, and towns, which flocked therherto see the Parsons of these two beloved and famous Kings. The sight of which people, might cause the greatest Prince in the world to admire them, and in their admiration, to rejoice in so fair and pleasant a sight, of so many well demeaned people, but more in the true loves to them. Both which was the cause of their coming thither.  
This Sunday spent in God's praises, and their comfort. On Monday in the forenoon being the 20. of july. These gracious Kings accompanied with our Royal Prince, and many Honourable persons most richly mounted on Steeds of great prize, and furniture fair, hunted in the Park at Greenwich, and killed two Bucks.  
Afternoon, their high estates, went to Eltham a house of his Majesties, some two miles distant from the Court, where in the park they hunted with great pleasure, and killed three Bucks on Horseback, being followed with many companies of people, which in their loves, came to see them: whereof a great many, not used to follow such pleasures as hunting, especially being on foot, thought not on their pains but in joy of their hearts, (which no doubt was pleasing unto them, they endeavoured with all their power to follow after their horses, as never wearied in the view of so royal company, thinking themselves most happy (of many other) to behold so rare & excellent a sight, two kings & a prince. & surely in the opinion of many, their royal persons might take great pleasure to hear their continual cries to God for his blessing, and to preserve them, their states and dignities, from all malice and traitors practices, for ever.  
The Sun growing nearer to his place of rest, their pleasures finished, and they returned themselves to the Court, all the way pacing easily, that the people might the better obtain their desires in beholding of them.  
This first days pleasure with great delight finished, they reposed themselves until Thursday the 24 of july, at which time the morning being fair, every man in his place gave their attendance, the Barges waited for their majesties, which about a x●. of the clock came abrood them, accompanied with his Brother the King & Prince, & were rowed to Black-wall, where their Coaches with their train, attended their coming, with such multitudes of people as were not to be numbered: at the landing there of his Highness, the Merchant's ships which anchored in the road these, discharged such a peal of ordinance, as gave great contentment to that royal company.  
There hence they set forwards the way that leadeth to Stratford, and so to Theobals twelve miles distant from London a famous and most delightful house of the Right Honourable Earl of Salisbury, all the way met with great company of people, which saluted them and prayed for their happiness, but most especially until they came three or four miles from London, all which way was so replenished with men and women of good sort, some on foot, some on horseback, and some in Coaches, that there was hardly way left for their royal company to pass them, such is the love of this nation to the King and his Lovers and friends, and in their love, their desires so great to behold their delights, that no pain (whatsoever) but they esteem as pleasure, to enjoy it, especially to behold so honourable and heavenly sight, two anointed kings, and so royal a Prince, whom God in his great mercy evermore preserve, and keep from all Traitorous practices, and other evils. A men.  
Before these Royal persons came (near the house of Theobals) there was strewed in the highways abundance ofleaves, coloured green, cut like Oaken leaves, on every one of which was written in large Roman Letters of gold, (Welcome, Welcome) which being presented to their Majesties, they praised the device, and found their welcomes as great to them and theirs, as was spoken of.  
At this most beautiful house, after their welcomes given by this most bountiful Earl, Patron of that famous place, they spent their times four nights and days, where they receive many great delights in hunting in the Chases & Parks near adjoining, where they killed store of Deer, with great pleasure.  
Some other times they spent in viewing the admirable pleasures that place affordeth, beholding in great delight the sweet groaves, gardens, and walks, which with such rare workmanship is so beautified, and for variety so exceedeth, that time stealeth too fast away, for the beholders, especially where judicial eyes doth take pleasures therein, so rich, rare and of such exquisite perfection is that place, that a man may fail in describing the same, but cannot suddenly be wearied with many times viewing & reviewing thereof.  
On Sunday they rest from their pleasures, giving the honour of that day to him that sanctified the same, and hearing learned Sermons.  
Amongst all the things which was to be noted at this honourable place, during these two royal Kings stay there, this I may not ovetpasse.  
The house b●ing twelve miles off from the City of London, notwithstanding the distance of the places, the great abundance of people, wh●ch came from London, to see these two royal kings & Prince, weresomany, that a man may wonder at, but not certainly reposse● the high ways thither, day nor night, never free for multitudes of People, going and coming in such great companies, that all the Towns and Villages adjoining, were so replenished with people, that there was not lodging to be had for many comers thither, not victuals for their moneys, whereof many of good sort complained, & might have fasted, had they not been provided for in that honourable house. Such was the bounty of this Noble Earl in his large allowance to all Officers for that time, that Beef, Bread, Beer, Wine, and other Vyandes, was not denied to any that were either acquainted in the house with the Officers, or any their friends which would seek it, as many sound to their great comfort and honour of the honourable Patron of that house.  
The four days appointed for the stay of this royal company there, brought to end with many delights and pleasure, to God's glory and their Graces good contentment.  
On Monday, being the 28. of july, after dinner, they leave that place, returning gracious thanks to this worthy Earl for their cheer and pleasures, wh●ch being truly considered of, may deservedly be spoken off in all honour in the Courts of the mightiest Potentates.  
As the Strangers, Partakers of both pleasures and cheer, to their great honor● doth appliud and for ever will commend in all places the renowned Earl and his most kind & royal entertainment, they received at this famous house of Theobals by his bounue.  
The same night they returned again to Blackwall, and from thence to Greenwich, where our gracious Queen Anne (the heart's delight of these two royal Kings) kept her Court, unto whose gracious and most loving company they were welcome, where, to the protection of the God of all glory and peace we leave them, who ever defend them and all theirs.  
Thu● have I brought to end the first welcome & arrival of this famous stranger King, with his beginning of progress to God's glory, their great pleasure, and content of many thousands, whose desires were enriched with beholding their persons.  
At this place of Greenwich they repose themselves until Thursday, which was the 31. of july, and the day appointed for their coming through the city, where they spent the time in solacing themselves, with her gracious Majesty, the Prince and Nobles of his court.  
About two of the clock in the after noon, the tide serving them to go to London, these two Royal Kings accompanied with the Prince, and Honourable privy Counsel, the Lords and estates of the Land, & a most worthy company of Knights and Esquires, The kings Barges giving their attendance, their royal persons came aboard and were rowed towards London.  
By the way as they passed, they were saluted with great peals of Ordinance, from the Merchant's ships which rid in the Thames, the gunner's of them so carefully applied their business, that they were highly commended for their care: And their owners which were at charge thereof, had thereby great commendations. With these delights and other musical noise of Drums and Trumpets, they passed on until they came to the Tower-wharsse, where those most gracious Kings and Royal Prince landed.  
There they made no long stay, but as suddenly as the Train could be marshaled according to their ancient manner, they set forwards, where the kings was entertained by that worthy Magistrate Sir Leonard holiday, Lord Mayor of the honourable City of London, who delivered the Sword unto his Highness, who graciously received it, and then proceeded.  
The Marshals of the City first, who had with great care, & deserved commendations for their travails, from the morning very early rid up & down the City, carefully overseeing the multitudes of People which came to be partakers of these royal sights, who by the strait command dement received from the Lord mayor and Aldermen for the people's safeties, that no harm might befall any of the companies: so highly, & with such great regard did they apply themselves in placing and governing them, that thereby much harm was prevented, which might otherwise have happened by the unruly multitude, as is oftentimes seen at such times and places.  
The Marshals had allowed for their attendance 12. men, suited in yellow Fustian, with ash coloured hats, red bands and red scarves, and each a up-staffe in their hands.  
Next them, two trumpeters of his Majesties, after whom followed the Knight-Marshals men of his highness household, a famous & most worthy knight Sir Thomas Vauisor.

With this company, the kings Guard began to come forward; which marched Soldier like by the sides of the Train (for a time) to keep the way.  
After them, more Harroldes, in their rich Coats; Then the kings Gentlemen, and Courtiers, being most gallantly mounted, and rich in their Apparel.  
Then a troup of most gallant Knighes: of whose riches a number may admire: of whom, many of them wore strange Feathers, of rich and great essteeme: which they called, The Birds of Paradise.

Then came the most gracious Prince HENRY, whose sweet, and most Majestical grace and favour, the whole company with due honour to his Grace, did applaud, and pray for his most gracious Father, and all theirs, in all health to continue.  
Then follow these two famours Honours of Estate and Majesty, the two KINGS, our dread Sovereign, and his beloved Brother, Christian the fourth King of Denmark: who regarding more the true love of their Nation, then gorgeous Apparel; whereof they have plenty: yet in their Pleasures, they contented themselves in plain Suits to be attired: But rich in jewels, themselves not far unlike; and their Horses near coloured and suited.  
About whom on the sides, marched 〈…〉 e Denmark Guard, suited in Watched Coats 〈◊〉 Hose, Soldier like, laced with white and 〈◊〉 Lace's whitish Hats, with blue B●●d●s, and gu●●● Halbardes'.  
These two most famous Brother Kings, riding in such love, and in Majesty so surpassing, did so joy the hearts of their Subjects, and the whole world may admire: yea, such was the honour of this day in London, and exceeding joy, to behold these two famous Kings, and their unity, as will, while they have any being, never be razed out of memory.

The Train thus marching, as I have described, rid on till they came to Cheapside: all the way as these two famous Kings passed from the Tower-hill, stood the Companies of London, in their liveries Gowns, and Hoods: for whom there was Places double railed; which was hanged with blue Broadcloth; and the Rails garnished with Ancients very richly guilt with the kings Arms of England; the Ancients of Silk of each Hall, with Streamers and Pendants of their Arms, and several Fellowships, the better to be known.

With great admiration, passed these famous Kings, till they came to Cheapside, viewing the numbers of people, which stood in Windows, the Streets, and other places, showing lovely and gracious aspectance of their loves, by their favourable countenance.  
In their passing at the great Conduit in Cheapside, was made with green Boughs, a very artificial Arboure, which was garnished with all sorts of delightful Fruits. In this Arbour was placed most sweet Music; which greatly delighted the hearers, and no doubt pleased his Majesty.  
At the little Conduit as they proceeded, there was erected a most stately Pagant; such as for the rare device and beauty, was, and is to be admired, and hath seldom been seen: a matter of such state, and rare edifice, in so short time to be accomplished, the workmen and plotters thereof, having not passed twelve days of respite, after their first warning.

Then road they on without stay, to Fleet Conduit, which was garnished sweetly: on the top was placed delightful Music; and were presented with other speeches, which was graciously accepted.  
When they came to Saint Dunstan's Church, they were presented with a noise of Cornets, which showed their cunning to be excellent, and very pleasing to both their Majesties.  
Here-hence they proceeded to Temple-bar: where his Majesty, and his brother King, giving many thanks to the Lord Mayre and Citizens', for their great charge and pains, delivered the Sword to the Lord Mayre; and road on their way to Somerset House: wherere they reposed themselves that night, and to their Gracious further pleasures.
