A75714	A true relation, of the most chiefe occurrences, at, and since the late battell at Newbery, untill the disjunction of the three armies, of the Lord Generall, the Earle of Manchester, and Sir William Waller, together with the London brigade, under the command of Sir Iames Harrington. Published upon necessity, both to undeceive the mistaken multitude, and to vindicate the Earle of Manchester, from many undeserved aspersions commonly cast upon him, either through ignorance or prejudice. / Penned by Simeon Ash, who as his chaplaine did waite upon his Lordship, in the westerne expedition.	Ashe, Simeon, d. 1662.	1644 (1644)	Wing A3968; Thomason E22_10; ESTC R21597	11,292	15

whereas_o 3_o regiment_n of_o my_o lord_n foot_n be_v order_v to_o march_v unto_o basin_n to_o assist_v the_o horse_n in_o the_o service_n there_o they_o be_v command_v when_o on_o their_o march_n

but_o i_o have_v be_v tell_v again_o and_o again_o that_o the_o call_n off_o of_o our_o horse_n and_o foot_n from_o basin_n be_v from_o the_o order_n of_o a_o council_n of_o war_n no_o man_n desert_v

concern_v the_o chief_a occurrence_n in_o our_o western_a expedition_n wherein_o though_o we_o have_v not_o such_o happy_a success_n as_o be_v desire_v and_o expect_v yet_o therein_o those_o acknowledge_v much_o of_o god_n goodness_n who_o do_v most_o exact_o observe_v his_o providence_n in_o our_o motion_n and_o adventure_n herein_o i_o have_v faithful_o according_a to_o my_o

of_o jesus_n christ_n i_o well_o remember_v those_o word_n job_n 13.7_o will_v you_o speak_v wieked_o for_o god_n and_o talk_v deceitful_o for_o he_o and_o therefore_o i_o be_o awe_v with_o the_o
