In Briefe, the Gunner, Cockswaine, Swab∣ber, and Ship-boyes were plentifully stored with pride, flattery and other the like Gentlemen like vertues.
The Ships that went in the same Regiment or Squadron with the Lord-SHIP, were these that followe. Namely.
1 The Ambition,
2 The Presumption, two stout Ships of very lofty Sayle and great Burthen.
3 The Oppression, a Ship of Account and Estimation.
4 The Costly, a Ship of great Charge.

9 The Debt, a Ship of great Burthen and much Receit.
10 The Satisfaction, a large long Ship, a very cart, a slugg and slowe of sayle.
