A Letter from the Hague, touching the King of Scots, his taking leave of the Prince of Orange, and his Sister the Dutchies Dowager of Orange, and his Captains and Servants:  
SIR,  
ON Wednesday last the tituler King of Scots took solemn leave of the Prince of Orange, (his Brother in Law) and his Sister, there were many expressions, and real tokens of love and affection between the King and the young Prince; but (as some observed that stood by) what passed between the Prince of Orange and him, favoured much of compliment and outward show. At Breda he took his farewell of many of his old Servants, (having entertained new according to the late agreement in the Treaty, his Chaplains being also to stay behind; one of them made a Speech, the Copy whereof is here enclosed. These solemnities over his Highness and the Duke of Buckingham departed together, and its thought they went to Schevering to take shipping, either for Scotland or some other place, his intentions for the first had been without question, had there not come news before his departure, of the proceed of Montross in Scotland, which put him into a great Delema, which way to steer his course, some persuading him to go to Denmark, and others to one of the Islands next unto England; which way he goes, a short time will give you knowledge.

A Speech delivered to the King of Scots, by one of his Captains, when he took his leave at Breda, ult May 1650.  
May it please your Majesty,  
IF persons descended of a Kingly race, desire to enjoy the Patrimony which was their Ancestors, they ought to seek it not by tyrannical ways, but by means proportionable to the intentions of them who laid those rich foundations; for he that is of a royal race, to enter into his inheritance, the ways of wisdom and virtue, are ever the most assured, and most honourable, and none are fit to be of that List, than men of science, conscience, courage, and fidelity, parts belonging to the ornament, support, and maintenance thereof; and these seconded by the prerogative of antiquity, (which age and time bestows upon them) are the main pillars whereby royalty subsisteth. To descend of royal blood provoketh to virtue, and therefore Christ chose not to descend of the Tribe of Benjamin, which was the least, but of the Tribe of Judah which was the greater, and according to his example no man ought to boast himself descended of noble ancestors, without imitation of their virtues, and to presume no more then to descend of noble and royal Parents, is a thing most vain; for Marius the Consul saith, that he doth inherit very little which doth not inherit the virtues of his predecessors. And as your Majesty ought to follow by example the virtues of your Ancestors; so on the contrary to avoid and shun their vices, you ought not only to forbear to do injuries, but to revenge them, for that which in the vulgar sort of people is called wrath, in your Majesty will be named pride: As ought therefore as you shall confer with your own Conscience, and remember from whence you came, you will never be troubled for the offences you have smothered, but for the injuries you shall revenge, for the pardoning of injuries, doth give great content to a noble spirit; but the desire of revenge is a continual torment, and many times it happeneth, that seeking to revenge a small injury, the party returns much more injured, and before satisfaction can be obtained, there may arise other new injuries. Myself and many others must now take leave of your Majesty, and have not wherewith to serve you further than by our prayers, which shall ever be for your height of happiness, not only in this World, but that Kingdom which is eternal, and fadeth not away.   

A LETTER FROM PLYMOUTH.  
SIR,  
AMongst the variety of Intelligence which floweth at this time in these parts, it is lawful to be ignorant of somewhat. That which I chief desire to inform you of is, that which we have lately received by some Ships that came into this Harbour. As for the fight at Sea, about which I wrote unto you in my last: here is not any full account given thereof as yet. It is believed, that if any Ship were then taken, it was not English; for the fight being within sight of the Isle of Wight, if it had been a Friend of ours, she might have run ashore before the Enemy could have boarded her; but that which is spoken of amongst us, is the sight of a Fleet of ten Sail of lusty Flemish Ships, which were lately discerned to sail towards the Isle of Jersey, two days since, which are supposed to be a Guard for the Prince, but whether Vantrump were there in person, is not certainly known, though the Ships are conceived to be of his Fleet, and if the Prince were there, the Scots may yet look for their King, and when they see him, bid him gued morning for all day; but its likely he is come to consult with Hopton, and others of the first Edition, whose advice hath had but slender success, when they had better Cards, and if by the vent (as most commonly it is) the thing propounded be adjudged good or evil (though much more might be said thereof) what rational man can think that any great matters will be enterprised by those at this time, which (as Plutarch saith) want plenty of young men's lances, and old men's counsels, and money which gives motion to the rest. If the declared King of Scotland be landed in Jersey, surely he will send word to his Subjects there, that the Parliaments ships ride so thick on the Northern Seas, that he could not find any passage through them, which peradventure will very well satisfy their greedy desires, as to that point, but whether he comes to them or not, their design must go forward. Greenvil lives in the Isle of Cilly, upon fish, and what else the Irish Pirates bring him, the Island not affording sufficiency of itself, to sustain the Inhabitants without supplies by Sea: neither do we hear of any increase of forces come lately to him thither.
