Hi sid, can you elaborate a bit further? Here is an example of the complete text: www.crcsite.org/printwedding.htmThe globe is mentioned below: “All their Chambers were built in semi-circle, that so they might have before their Eyes the costly Clock-work which was erected upon a fair Turret in the Center, and regulate themselves according to the course of the Planets, which were to be seen on it in a glorious manner. And hence I could easily conjecture wherein our Artists failed, howbeit its none of my duty to inform them. At length I came into a spacious Room (shown indeed to the rest a great while before) in the middle whereof stood a terestrial Globe, whose Diameter contained thirty Foot, albeit near half of it, except a little which was covered with the steps, was let into the Earth. Two Men might readily turn this Globe about with all its Furniture, so that more of it was never to be seen, but so much as was above the Horizon. Now although I could easily conceive that this was of some special use, yet could I not understand whereto those Ringlets of Gold (which were upon it in several places) served; At which my Page laughed, and advised me to view them more narrowly. In brief, I found there my native Country noted with Gold also: Whereupon my Companion sought his, and found that so too. Now for as much as the same hapened in like manner to the rest who stood by, The Page told us of a certain that it was yesterday declared to the Kings Majest'y by their old Atlas (so is the Astronomer named) that all the gilded points did exactly answer to their native Countries, according as had been shown of each of them. And therefore He also, as soon as he perceived that I undervalued my self and that nevertheless there stood a Point upon my native Country, moved one of the Captains to intreat for us, that we should be set upon the Scale (without our Peril) at all Adventures; Especially seeing one of our Native Countries had a notable good Mark:..” There are 7 rooms in a Rotund each of half a circle i.e., 7 x 180° = 1260. In Hebrew gematria meaning "Fruit of a tree" and in Greek gematria "Solomon". Also: "The so called prophetic pregnancy is of 42 weeks which are each of 30 days = 1260 days, with each day equivilant to one year = 1260 years. "

Wow -- that is an awesome site. The gardens and architecture look fascinating, too.
I may just have to trek up there next time I'm visiting my parents in the Netherlands! ;D
