James Crofts, who conies with a. Pacquet for the Lady Elizabeth from my Lord of Leicefter* I could not but fend you this friendly falute. We are like to make a fpeedier return than we expected frona this embafly ; for we found the King of Denmark ire Holftein, which fhortened our voyage from going to the Sound : the king was in an advantageous pofture to give audience, for there was a parliament then at Reimburgk* where all the Tounkers met. Among other things, I put myfelf to mark the carriage... of the Holftein gentle- men, as they were going in and out at the parliament- houfe ; and obferving \, 'ell then- phyfiognomies, their complexions and gaite, I thought verily I was in Eng- land, for they refemble the Engliflj more than either Weljb or Scot, (though cohabiting upon the fame ifland), or any other people, that ever I faw yet ; which makes me verily believe, that the Englijlj nation came -firft from this lower circuit of Saxony ; and there is one thing that flrengtheneth me in this belief, that there is an an- tient town hard by called Lunden, and an ifland called Angles ; whence it may well be that our country came from Britannia, to be Anglla.
