The NASEBY sails with the fleet to Elsinore, where they sight the Dutch fleet but do not see action in the war between Sweden and Denmark.

The ship sails to Sole Bay in Suffolk, where they find the rest of the fleet, and then to Elsinore, where they intend to assist the Swedes in the war between Sweden and Denmark. They sight the Dutch fleet, who are supporting the Danes, but do not engage them. Barlow includes a poem expressing his longing to go to sea.
