AFTER the consummation of the marriage, the king and queen removed from Winchester to several other places, and by easy journeys came to Windsor Castle, where he was installed with the order of the garter, on Sunday August 12; at which time, an herald took down the arms of England at Windsor, and in the place of them would have set up the arms of Spain, but he was commanded to set them up again by certain lords. From thence they both removed to Richmond, and, by water, to London, and landed at the bishop of Winchester's house, through which they passed both into Southwark-park, and so to Southwark-house, called Suffolk-place, […] they lay that night, being the 18th of August.

THE next day the king and queen rode from Suffolk-place (accompanied with a great number, as well of noblemen as gentlemen) through the city of London to Whitehall: and at London-bridge, as he entered at the draw-bridge, was a vain great spectacle set up, two images representing two giants, one named Corineus, and the other Gogmagog, ⟨p. 393⟩holding between them certain Latin verses, which for the vain ostentation of flattery I overpass.
