Nicholas in Russia the 10. day of Iuly following, and imme∣diatly I sent in post to the Emperor to aduertise of my comming, and traueiling then thorowe the countrey, I with my company came to the Mosco where the Emperour kept his court, the 23. of August, and foorthwith gaue the Secretarie to v••derstand of my arriuall, who aduertised the Emperours Maiestie of it, and the first day of September, being a solemne feast among the Russes, I came before the Emperours Maiestie, sitting in his seate of honour, and hauing kissed his hand, and done the Queenes Maiesties commendations, and deliue∣red her Graces letters and present, he ••ad me to dinner, which I accepted, and had much honour done vnto me both then and all the time of my abode in Russia.
