Thank you all.
I was essentially interested in how would you translate it to modern English, so Rover_KE's answer was the best (he said that it means 'He addressed the queen in these words.'). As I wrote in the example, I thought it goes the other way around, i.e. the queen speaks to someone, not that someone speaks to her.
BTW: I've also heard it in context of something like "bespoke tailoring", but then went ahead to check it on Wiktionary.
