1. *a place where ships may ride secure from storms.*

 2. *a place secure from storms where ships may ride.*

 3. *a secure from storms place where ships may ride.*

 4. *a secure place where ships may ride from storms.*

 5. *a place secure where ships may ride from storms.*



In 1, the action or verb of riding is qualified by the ***adverbial phrase*** "secure from storms"

In 2, "secure from storms" is an ***adjectival phrase*** describing the noun place

2 and 3 are equivalent though some may consider 3 incorrect

4 is ***semantically incorrect*** since "ride from storms" doesn't convey the intended meaning

5 seems to be an archaic or poetic variation of 4 and ***equally incorrect semantically***

**So 1 and 2 both seem to be correct choices depending on the meaning you want to convey.**
