the_o great_a victory_n obtain_v by_o his_o majesty_n army_n under_o the_o command_n of_o his_o grace_n the_o duke_n of_o monmouth_n against_o the_o rebel_n in_o the_o west_n of_o scotland_n on_o sunday_n and_o monday_n be_v the_o 21_o &_o 22_o instant_n sir_n i_o can_v not_o omit_v give_v you_o a_o account_n of_o what_o happen_v late_o between_o the_o king_n army_n and_o the_o rebel_n know_v

of_o this_o instant_n his_o grace_n the_o duke_n of_o monmouth_n march_v with_o the_o army_n under_o his_o command_n from_o blackwood_n towards_o the_o rebel_n and_o be_v upon_o his_o march_n he_o receive_v a_o message_n by_o a_o trumpet_n to_o this_o effect_n viz._n that_o if_o his_o grace_n be_v please_v to_o confirm_v and_o agree_v to_o those_o term_n they_o have_v already_o make_v in_o their_o last_o declaration_n they_o will_v lay_v down_o their_o arm_n but_o upon_o no_o other_o account_n his_o grace_n contemn_v to_o agree_v to_o their_o term_n or_o to_o indulge_v rebellion_n at_o such_o a_o rate_n contrary_a to_o the_o establish_a law_n of_o that_o kingdom_n draw_v up_o his_o force_n towards_o they_o the_o rebel_n have_v secure_v bottle-bridge_n have_v strong_o barrocade_v it_o have_v a_o very_a considerable_a party_n of_o horse_n there_o and_o have_v plant_v their_o army_n on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o river_n but_o notwithstanding_o that_o his_o grace_n make_v a_o attack_z upon_o they_o with_o a_o like_a party_n of_o horse_n which_o behave_v themselves_o with_o that_o gallantry_n and_o courage_n as_o soon_o cause_v the_o rebel_n to_o quit_v their_o post_n with_o very_o considerable_a loss_n his_o grace_n have_v thus_o successful_o gain_v the_o bridge_n present_o march_v they_o over_o and_o draw_v up_o his_o main_a body_n and_o after_o have_v put_v they_o in_o battalion_n and_o give_v necessary_a order_n to_o his_o officer_n his_o grace_n engage_v their_o main_a body_n and_o after_o a_o sharp_a dispute_n give_v they_o a_o final_a rout_n

sir_n it_o be_v incredible_a to_o express_v in_o what_o great_a number_n the_o gentry_n come_v in_o to_o join_v the_o king_n force_n and_o be_v daily_o come_v in_o to_o the_o great_a satisfaction_n of_o all_o loyal_a and_o faithful_a subject_n and_o to_o the_o great_a hope_n of_o speedy_o put_v a_o end_n to_o these_o rebellious_a insurrection_n many_o thousand_o be_v upon_o their_o march_n from_o the_o north_n of_o scotland_n cheerful_o to_o join_v his_o majesty_n force_n which_o be_v believe_v will_v be_v stop_v upon_o the_o account_n of_o this_o happy_a victory_n and_o have_v not_o the_o engagement_n begin_v so_o soon_o till_o such_o time_n as_o these_o assistant_n have_v join_v the_o army_n without_o all_o doubt_n the_o rebel_n will_v never_o be_v able_a to_o have_v make_v the_o least_o escape_n his_o majesty_n privy_a council_n here_o have_v be_v indefatigable_o careful_a and_o industrious_a in_o supply_v the_o king_n army_n with_o all_o thing_n necessary_a and_o convenient_a act_v as_o with_o one_o head_n and_o heart_n or_o rather_o strive_v to_o out_o do_v each_o other_o in_o their_o fidelity_n and_o loyalty_n and_o whereas_o the_o rebel_n make_v use_v of_o these_o word_n in_o the_o latter_a part_n of_o their_o declaration_n viz._n that_o they_o request_v their_o countryman_n now_o the_o stand_a force_n of_o this_o kingdom_n some_o of_o they_o be_v their_o friend_n and_o relation_n not_o to_o fight_v against_o they_o lest_o in_o so_o do_v they_o shall_v be_v find_v fight_v against_o the_o lord_n who_o cause_n and_o quarrel_n they_o be_v sure_o he_o will_v own_v and_o signal_o countenance_n see_v they_o fight_v under_o his_o banner_n who_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o host_n those_o who_o they_o thus_o call_v their_o friend_n and_o kinsman_n be_v so_o ready_a and_o vigorous_a in_o fight_v against_o they_o and_o the_o happy_a victory_n which_o they_o obtain_v over_o they_o seem_v rather_o to_o represent_v to_o every_o loyal_a subject_n and_o impartial_a mind_n that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o lord_n cause_n or_o quarrel_n which_o thus_o they_o pretend_v to_o maintain_v but_o rather_o a_o fight_v against_o god_n in_o rebel_a against_o their_o
