The outcome was the Treaty of Nonsuch of August 1585, in which Elizabeth promised military support to the Dutch.

The Queen had expressly forbidden his return and was surprised when he presented himself in her bedchamber one morning at Nonsuch Palace, before she was properly wigged or gowned.

He was alluding to the recently signed Treaty of Nonsuch in which his position and authority as " governor-general " of the Netherlands had only been vaguely defined.

From the start such a position for him had been implied in the Dutch propositions to the English, and in their instructions to Leicester ; and it was consistent with the Dutch understanding of the Treaty of Nonsuch.

Nonsuch Mansion bears a resemblance in its design to the original design of Nonsuch Palace, whose construction was begun by King Henry VIII in the 16th Century.

In August 1585, Brielle was one of the four Dutch towns that became an English possession by the Treaty of Nonsuch when Queen Elizabeth I received it as security of payment for 5000 soldiers used by the Dutch in their struggle against the Spanish.

However, in 1585, Elizabeth I signed the Treaty of Nonsuch, which officially brought England into the conflict, with the promise of 6, 500 troops ( which was then changed to 8, 000 troops ) for the Dutch.

An additional difficulty in 1931 was the death of Beebe's father, and Beebe left Nonsuch Island for a week in order to attend his father's funeral.

During the two Zaca expeditions Beebe was accompanied by his longtime assistant John Tee-Van as well as Jocelyn Crane, a young carcinologist who had first worked for Beebe at Nonsuch Island in 1932, and who would subsequently be among Beebe's most cherished associates for the rest of his life.

Although Beebe continued to use Nonsuch Island as his base of operations throughout the 1930s, with the onset of World War II in 1939 it was announced that the ferry linking Bermuda to New York would soon be making its final run, requiring Beebe and his team to hastily abandon their station there.

In 1606 he was appointed Keeper of the Great Park, a park created for hunting by Henry VIII around Nonsuch Palace, of which Worcester Park was a part.

On Narborough's return to England, Herbert was appointed acting commander-in-chief, and made Benbow master aboard HMS Nonsuch on 15 June 1679.

The Nonsuch was next in action on 8 August 1681, this time against the Algerine warship, the Golden Horse.

The Nonsuch then returned to England and was paid off on 9 November 1681.

Nonsuch Palace was a Tudor royal palace, built by Henry VIII in Surrey, England ; it stood from 1538 to 1682 – 3.

Nonsuch Palace in Surrey was perhaps the grandest of Henry VIII's building projects.

Between 1819 and 1824, Turner returned to sea in the schooner Nonsuch attached to a squadron commanded again by Oliver Hazard Perry.

In August he commanded an English army of 4400 men which Elizabeth had sent to support the States General against the Spaniards, in accordance with the Treaty of Nonsuch.

Partly to provide a pretext for such hostilities against Spain, Elizabeth assisted the Dutch Revolt by signing in 1585 the Treaty of Nonsuch with the new Dutch state of the United Provinces.

Some stood up to seven stories high, some overhung the river by seven feet, and some overhung the road, to form a dark tunnel through which all traffic must pass, including ( from 1577 ) the palatial Nonsuch House.

Appalled by the destruction, Beebe finally rented his station at Nonsuch Island to a military contractor and returned to New York.

Despite some buildings in a partly Renaissance style from the reign of Henry VIII, notably Hampton Court Palace, the vanished Nonsuch Palace, Sutton Place and Layer Marney Tower, it was not until the Elizabethan architecture of the end of the century that a true Renaissance style emerged, influenced far more by northern Europe than Italy.

Nonsuch was built by Doxford in 1906 for Bowles Brothers and lost to air attack in 1944.

On 29 September 1668, the Nonsuch ( ship ) under the command of Zachariah Gillam and guided by Médard des Groseilliers anchored at the mouth of the Rupert River.

Des Groseilliers accompanied Captain Zachariah Gillam on the ketch Nonsuch and they jointly founded the first fur-trading post on James Bay, Charles Fort.

The Nonsuch was the ketch that sailed into Hudson Bay in 1668-1669 under Zachariah Gillam, in the first trading voyage for what was to become the Hudson's Bay Company two years later.

On June 3, 1668 two ships left England for Hudson Bay: the Nonsuch with Groseilliers and the Eaglet with Radisson.

One, with Radisson aboard, had to turn back, but the other, the Nonsuch, with Groseilliers, did penetrate the Bay.

In 1668, the English commissioned two ships, the Nonsuch and the Eaglet, to explore possible trade into Hudson Bay.

The Eaglet failed, but her sister vessel, the Nonsuch, made a successful expedition, returning in 1669 with furs worth £ 1, 400.
