The Printer to the Reader.  
THis Spanish Original coming to my hands most opportunely, took the advantage of my liking it, and sudden apprehension, that it would please the Reader, whosoever: not so much because thereby is proposed a kind of variety of News, as in that the glory of God is made apparent in his works, and wonderful providence, that can preserve men out of raging seas, and afford his mercy when we think that it is quite denied us: And although I may incur an imputation by leaning more to the true sense, then to the words, as they lie in order: yet I will be bold to say, that the sentences here extended, shall neither receive exotic interpretation, nor be carried with any wanton hand from the true meaning: Be therefore thus favourable I pray, to read it without a strict comparison of the original. and accept of an honest intent, that aimeth as much at the satisfaction of worthy deservers, as any profit can arise out of so mean a work.   

A RELATION OF THE SUCCESS of the Galeons', and the whole Fleet of Terra Firma.  
THe 22. of August, 1622, the whole Fleet of Terra Firma, (that is to say, such Ships of Spain and Galeons' belonging to his Majesty, 〈◊〉 dispersed, or imploy● in the several Harbours or Ports of America, or, if you had rather, the West-Indies) assembled themselves and came together into the Port of Havana, a place belike appointed, as a Rendezvous, whither the Navy might repair to make their return home. Whereupon the General, or, as you please, the Admiral, on the 23 of August, by public Proclamation commanded that every ship should register the gold, silver, bullion, merchandise, and other movables, into their books of account, or office of the Admiralty, because they had a purpose to put to Sea and set Sail the 28 day.  
But considering the small dispatch was made, and the multitude of business wherewith they were encumbered, they cast many doubts of losing at all, or putting from the harbour until the conjunction of the Moon was past, whose effects they expected the 5. of September: Whereupon the marquis Governor of Havana and the Country, called a Council, summoning the officers, and proposing to the assembly, what was most necessary and befitting to be done for the conveniency and security of the whole Navy: so there came accordingly the land-governor or General over the Soldiers, the Admiral of the Armado, the Captain General of the Fleet, and his Admiral; the Supervisor or Treasurer, the Captains of the Soldiers, and the Pilots, who with one consent determined, that in regard this Conjunction in September did commonly in those parts bring clouds and obfuscation of air, which would not vanish without tempests, and turbulent winds, it was a seasonable providence, and befitting the security of the Armado, to remain quietly in harbour, until the foresaid Conjunction were elapsed, which no question the same night would manifest her operation to some purpose.  
Upon this resolution they prepared themselves, and settled their affairs to tarry the times appointment, and then to set forward their pretended voyage. But that evening promised such fair weather, and a serene Element, with a pleasant and sociable gale of wind continuing two or three days together, made them all repent, and wish they had taken hold of opportunity, and set forward their journey, which caused the General to consent to their importunities, and associate them as I may say, in their hopes: insomuch, that after general musters, on Sunday the 4 of September, by break of day they weighed anchors, and hoist their sails, accommodating the ships out of harbour to the best purpose. There were 28. ships with their Admiral; 8. Galeons'; 3. Pinnaces; and other attendants, upon the Fleet, with their consorts. They sailed forward very prosperously, and had a time of fair expectation. But Monday approaching, which was the day of the Conjunction, the weather according to former conjecture seemed to change, and the wind coming to North-east raised both a care and a fear in the Admiral: Besides, the Galeons' forecasting all the ways to prevent subsequent mischief, wound up their main sails, and tied them fast to their yards, and advanced only their Missens, making use of their Bosprels, and in a word put in practice all the means which art and industry could afford to scape the danger.  
But it should seem, that tempests will have their courses, and are inexorable: For the wind increased and so whistled, that it would not hearken to the whistling of the Mariners, the clouds thickened and over mantled the Horizon, and the air was so dark and formidable, that they could not discern one ship from another; by which chance, or rather disastrous mischance, ere it was full noon, the winds continuing, and as it were covenanting to perpetrate some outrageousness, all the Galeons' were dissipated and dissevered, and the most part of the Fleet for their better passage went before the wind, and took a course to save themselves as well as they could: In which violence they were driven from one another, and the wind continued so impetuous, that it not only unloosed their tackle and sails, but broke asunder their fore-masts, and rend their main yards in shivers, so they had no shift but to bear no sail at all, or cross the wind as they could.  
But as waves roll after waves, one mischief follows another: for presently the wind turned to the South, which although it gave them leave the better to accommodate themselves, and endure the tempest, yet it brought rain, and the Sea wrought as high as it did before: then they seared another misfortune, to be thrust or hurried into some creek or bay of the coast of Florida, which they much suspected by the great and wonderful haste they had made (for they commonly ran five or six leagues every glass) and then there was no hope but either splitting on the sands, or perishing on the shore.  
This storm and fearful tempest continued with all outrageousness until Tuesday following, then by break of day they assumed comfort that all was not lost and cast away: for they descried some ships afar off, who as it seemed determined to return to the Port of Havana, in which course such as had masts and sails prepared themselves, and the rest that were bruised and broken, as far as they could discern one another, laboured to do the like, and prosecute the same course.  
They began to enter the harbour the 10. of Septemb. and continued till the 14. The Galeons' which were saved were the first, and so other ships followed, after they had knowledge of one another. The same day arrived the Galeon S. Ann de Real, having lost her main Mast: with her came Captain or Admiral Esteuan Delgado, whose ship was laden with the merchandise of the said Port of Havana, she entered in safety without any impeachment, or wreck of the tempest.  
The 11. entered the Admiral of Terra firma, or the Continent, with the loss of her main Mast: in her company was a ship of Cadiz, who sustained no detriment, but had all her masts and tackle in order.  
The 13. arrived the Admiral of Manana, with all her Masts. The same day came the Admiral Real, though somewhat late, having recovered 11 ships of of the Fleet, and certain Pinnaces, wherein were 50. persons of the bay of Tortuga, who live under 25 degrees. This Admiral likewise escaped without loss of a tackling.  
Other ships which were not of the Fleet, came also from the Lands into the same harbour without impeachment, observing the time of happy and seasonable departure from the North of S. Domingo.   

What Galeons' and Ships were lost, and perished in this tempest.  
1 THe Admiral of the whole Fleet following the storm, and driven by the wind with the foresail of the middlemost Mast, ran Northward all night and the next day; whereupon she proposed to rest in some harbour, or place of security on those shores: but suddenly she came to shallow water, and in short space ran herself on ground at two fathom water and a little more, where her beak broke a pieces, with the loss of her people, except three men and two boys: this was on the Coast of Maracumbe in Florida.  
2 The Galcon Margerita followed the same course, and participated with the same fortune: For she was lost the 8. day, coming to three fathom water, but she was violently thrust on a flat or sand: so that the keel sticking fast with the gusts overgreat, and the billows extremely raging, the body shivered all to pieces, and the passengers when it was apparent they could not escape, saw as little mercy in the Sea, as they had endured in the Wind.  
3. and 4. In the same hour, with the same tempest, and almost at the same place, two Ships of the Fleet were swallowed in the Sea, and perished before they could approach the shore: but yet Captain done Bernardine de Lugo was miraculously saved on a piece of timber, though some say a broken hatch, which the Sea wasted toward the shore, and 60. persons or soldiers of his company escaped upon diverse things, to the broken carcase of the former Admiral, and so by degrees, made shift to save their lives.  
5 A Frigate, which came from Cartagena with Portugals was lost at Tortuga, in one of those dangerous Creeks, and unknown Promontories: there were in her 56. persons, who all escaped upon several chests and planks.  
6 The Admiral Th: de Luspam saved himself in a little shallop, which the Galeon drew after him: For when he saw no remedy, he cut off the rope, and with a convenient number rowed above three leagues in the Sea, till at last they drove themselves into a straight, and so come ashore.  
7 The Galeon of our Lady del Rosario, wherein Captain Chacurretta was Commander, likewise perished, not without great suspicion before hand: she ran aground, as the Admiral did, so that none of the Ships that came into the Harbour could give an account of her, until a certain Bark arrived the 22. of September at the Port of Havana with Letters from the said Captain, which advertised them, that the said Galeon perished in Tortuga, all the company escaping miraculously, who had the fortune to save themselves with convenient victual and necessary supplements, keeping firm stations on their chests, masts, and such other things.  
8. and 9 Moreover two other ships were thought and adjudged lost, because they were not heard of after the storm. But if you will be acquainted with a wonder indeed. The Pilot of the Margarita was miraculously saved upon the rib of a ship, on which he was carried five days together in the Sea, and sustained his life by a bird, or reasonable big foul which came to his hand, until a Pinnace passing by him in a most seasonable time, took him in and brought him to safe Harbour.

So that there were 462. persons, as you may perceive and understand by this Relation, of seamen, soldiers and passengers, who embarked themselves in these two Galeons', that is to say, the Admiral of the Fleet, called our Lady of A●…tocha, and the S. Margarite, which (as some will have it) signifies the ship of pearl, amongst whom perished 391. and 71. were saved, as is by the same apparent.  
Concerning the rest, I find no other mention in the original, but what is briefly handled before: only the Author falls to some business, wherein they were employed after the storm, which accordingly I thus prosecute, not varying from the true meaning of the same.  
The 25. of September 1622. the great marquis aforenamed, Governor of Havana, assembled once again a Council, to which all the Officers were summoned, about the return into Spain with the rest of the Fleet, concluding to depart after the conjunction of October, to which it should seem they all condescended, except the General john de Sara moran, the Admiral Thomas de la ray pura, and two principal Pilots of the Armado, or the whole Fleet, with the Pilot of the Admiral, who for diverse reasons, besides the great provision and treasure in the same, did not think it fit or convenient in so dangerous a time, and after so fearful a warning, to adventure so great a substance and so rich a prize into the hands of fortune, wind or weather; but rather to return into Spain at the Spring of the year, and make use of a more prosperous season: to which advice (as it should seem) this Naval Council subscribed.  
The eighteenth of September there departed from the Port of Havana three Barks or Frigates, under the command of Captain or Admiral Gaspar de Vargaz, whose charge was to search for the Artillery and treasure of the lost Galeons': and on Monday the 28. of September, after safe arrival, they there summoned all the soldiers, seamen and passengers, who were miraculously preserved in the tempest, when the said Admiral was lost under the command of Michael de Cazaretta, and whom at their coming in Florida they found in safety, and with whom the said Gaspar de Vargas returned after they had discovered where the Admiral lay, which they might do by the topmast appearing above water, and so very fortunately they dispatched their unfortunate business.  
They divided into these Frigates or small Barks, the most part of the Artillery or Ordnance, which with great labour and industry they got out of the Galeons', beginning first with her that perished in the Bay of Tortaga, but they were much troubled and encumbered with two special pieces, which put them to excessive ●…oile. Thus were they able in respect of the Fortress of Tabaco to search further, and at convenient leisure to effect that, which they came about: for this Fort being built and erected of purpose to keep the inhabitants in awe, and debar strangers from any intrusion, as also to accommodate them, if by disastrous chance they should be driven into these places, so watched the two perished Galeons', that they found what was to be found untouched: whereupon the said Gaspar de Vargas writ of his success to the marquis, and of the toil he sustained in the Margarite, with other adventures, as the danger and wonderful pains which the divers endured, and the Sailors proved, even when they were in the waste of the lost ships, whose bodies were broken to pieces, and lay in a manner under water.  
When this was done, and that they could find or recover no more, at a quiet and a still water, in the company of Captain Cazaretta they searched the Creek, and the Bottom more narrowly for the bullion and treasure of the said Galleon of Rosario, and had the fortune to find the most part of it, though it seemed smoked, blacked, and impeached with the owse and frettings of the water, yea after four natural days they drew it all out with the loss only of one Ingot.  
The next work in the harbour of Havana, was the Currying and trimming such ships as had escaped the tempest, whereupon to be more able to furnish the three distressed Galeons' that came Mastless into the harbour (as you have heard) they cast a cross a ship of Cadiz, and disrobed her, as I may say, taking her Masts, Tackling and furniture, whereby they supplied many wants, and as well as they could, masted the Galeons' again, so that they were thought fit and serviceable to prosecute the voyage of the sea, when occasion should invite them to return into Spain.  
The fourth of October, there came into the Port of Havana, a certain Frigate with twenty persons, and two Friars Vittorians, who saved themselves in a ship of new Cumpechana in the first voyage, when they accompanied the Fleet of new Spain, and were cast a shore on the rocks, and Lands of Bermuda, having been hurried and tossed two days together with a strange storm and wonderful tempest, and yet the Galeons' and most of their Fleet were saved, God be thanked, only some ships perished, amongst whom was theirs in which they first embarked themselves; so that there were drowned 83 persons, who could by no means be provided for, because one morning very early all the ship was covered with water and ready to sink, whereupon the better sort procured to get into the boat, which with much ado they effected, affording leave to none to enter but themselves, lest they should all perish, and so better save some. They which went up provided one great basket of biscuit, and a little fresh water, wherewith they sustained themselves, until they came into the harbour of Havana 26. days after their Navigation, by which occasion many have reported, that they had no other shallop, but the boat of the ship.  
The 24. of October being Sunday, the marquis called a Council again for the concurrency of all business, wherein it was propounded to acquaint his Majesty by some pinnace or other adventurer, with their present affairs, and so to provide for the furnishing of the other ships for new Spain, and if Captain Gasparo de Veruas' returned in the mean while, then might the occurrences and particulars of the scarches of the lost Admiral and Galeon of Saint Margarite be advertised all together, according to the agreement of the court and assembly.  
The second of November died the General of the fleet, john de Lara Moran of a Calenture, which over mastered him.  
Don Pedro de Ursula, was also sent into Florida, to make further search in the Margarite and Admiral, for treasure and other things, while Captain Gaspar de Vargas went to provide especial necessaries: but no man was permitted to search the sides of the broken ships, which by this time were come to the shore, but the licenced Officers.  
The 18. of November Don Peter Ursula, arrived at the Creeks, where the Galeons' were lost, and began his adventure for the finding of more treasure, God grant a good success may crown his service.
