London Printed for J. Bandon, 1642. THE KING OF DENMARK'S Navy. AFter the confusive distractions in this Kingdom of England, intelligence being spread abroad to most neighbouring Nations, concerning his Majesty most particularly, and amongst others the King of Denmark hearing of the same, first convocated a Council, and when he perceived the proneness, and eager readiness of the Danes: whose propensity was greater than he expected, he forthwith by the unanimous consent of his Counsel, concluded to raise a Fleet, which he would send over to the English Coast respectively. They elected immediately Keevalo Dunous to be their chief Commander, and set forward with 75 sail the 13 of this present month of March, but they stayed two days on shore, expecting a good wind, and so they set forward the 15. day having a good gale, triumphing in great pomp, etc. There are above 40000. Danes in all, and it is supposed, that their number will be shortly augmented. They lie now at the Coasts of Ireland, and they sent a message to the King of their loyalty to his Majesty, and the cause of their coming and intents were only to vindicate the abusive injuries done against his Royal person: but the King (whose care and vigilancy extends to the prosperous security of his subjects, whose clemency is adorned with such patience, that he had rather suffer wrong himself, then bathe the same in cloudy tevenge to the detriment, and hazard of his Kingdoms) would not accept of their service, and discreetly denied their entertainment. But they continue at the Irish Coast still, and if they hear not further answer from His Majesty speedily, they will return again into their Country, which God grant they may, as soon as they please. The King of Frances Navy THe French King hearing of the turbulent divisions in Engâ—Źand, and some abuses done to his Brother, known particularly by the private information of a dear Friend, and moved by the same to assist his Majesty, summoned a Navy, under the command of Captain De Sunae Bewit, and intended to set forward for England. The certainty of this News is credible, a though there hath been some ementitious Pamphlets that have heretofore been fictitiously published, intimating that the French fleet was provided long since, but it was not intended before now of late: and although the other was a lie, would this were so too, but it is too certain. They have fifty six sail, and about thirty thousand soldiers, loaded like wise with great provision of Arms. They lie in the narrow seas, and were descried by two English Merchants ships, who espied them there, and reported it at London for truth. And no question but they will be at England very suddatnely, if they be not timely prevented, for besides that number, twice as many more are resolved to second them, and do now wait in readiness: they come likewise to maintain his Majesty's cause; but I hope his Majesty will neither accept of their service, nor have any cause to use them. The King of Spain's Navy. THe Spaniard (like a crafty For) hath always weighted for his prey on England, which hath been the sole object of his greedy intentions. Witness first that formidable and invincible Armado in 88 which was sufficiently potent to have blasted the whole Kingdom at one brunt, had not the divine protection averted it from us. Now likewise the King of Spain perceiving a sedition, and various confusion in the Kingdom, hath provided a fleet consisting of 23. ships, under the Command of Captain Don Pedringano, to the number of 8000. soldiers, waiting on the Seas for his opportunity. These ships were espied a hundred leagues distant from the Spanish Coast, some think his intent hereby is for the defence of his own Country, but that seems improbable, in regard it is so far remote from their own shore: others think verily that his meaning is to aid, and assist his Majesty upon just occasion: but in my opinion I conceive his intent is to wait rather for his own prey, and watching his opportunity: for those that are too officious in warlike affairs, especially in a foreign Kingdom, will rather regard their own ends, than any others, for they will always turn to the strongest side: But I hope all his evil intentions, and private stratagems will fall on his own head. The States of Venices' Navy. THe Italians seriously understanding some wrongs offered unto his Majesty, acquainted the States of Venice with the same. Who immediately sat in Council about it, and after some mature deliberation concluded to set out a Navy to assist his Majesty, which was unanimously confirmed, and assented unto their fleet consisteth of 48. ships, under the Commad of Captain Hupah Fenao, there being at the least 36000. soldiers, being also provided with strong ammunition of arms: they lie now within less than 40. leagues from the Downs, and are suddenly intended to appropinquate the English Coast, being all unitely resolved to maintain the Kings own person from all injuries, or abuses: but I hope the King's clemency will mitigate their anger, and no doubt, but that His Majesty will not entertain them, having no cause of any such vindication. COnstancy is an Antidote against fear: wherefore let us be sincerely constant in our minds, and we may easily expel fear from our thoughts. First constant to God, constant to our King, constant to our Parliament, constant to ourselves, and lastly constant to truth and equity. These being truly performed, we need not to fear either any foreign or domestic enemy, As for these Navies aforementioned, they may perhaps cast a repercussive fear and astonishment into the minds of some: but if we be really true, and constant in our minds, we need not fear them. As for those injuries, and abuses done to His Majesty, which they intent, and are resolved to vindicate, for my own part, I am ignorant of any; which if there were, I believe His Majesty is more loving, and tender over his Subjects, then for some particular abuse to depopulate the whole Kingdom in revenge of the same. And the Parliament are so judicious in their pious way, and in all their mature Counsels, that if any known, and unjust injury sholy be offered unto his Majesty, they would (I am confident) according to Equity and justice correct the same. And they are so vigilant, and careful for the safety, and security of the Kingdom, that if any enemy should violently oppose us, they would be speedily provided for them in defedce of the Realm. God grant that the King and Parliament may so unitely accord, and correspond together, that no cause of Fears, and jealousies, that no suspicion of injuries, may be reflected on either. FINIS.
