Printed for Ioseph Neale Another Glorious VICTORIE OBTAINED By his Excellencie and Col. Langham against the Cavaleirs at their second surrounding of the Kings Army neer Reading Marlow and Henley Decemb. 2. UPon the first day of Decemb. His Excellencie had intelligence that the Cavaleirs were resolved to leave Oxford Reding Marlow and Henley and to betake themselves further downe into the West Countries thereby thinking to strengthen their wicked and Tyrannicall Crew and to furnish themselvs with such Arms and Ammunition which they stood in extraordinary need of Whereupon his Excellency taking the same into serious consideration and finding that it would prove very prejudiciall unto them if that they did neglect and let this opportunity slip he forthwith called a Councell of Warre where his Excellency very nobly declared himself unto most of the Officers and Commanders and after some time spent in consultation thereupon it was concluded that severall Regiments of Horse add Foote should be forthwith drawn out of the Mayne Body to wheele about towards Reding and Marlow and so by that means to get beyond the kings Irmy which was accordingly put in execution and performed And upon the second of this month his Excellencie caused and gave command that severall Pieces of Ordnance should be with all expedition Planted against Marlow and Henley where the Cavaleers had strongly intrenched themselves The Ordnance plaid for the space of two hours very furiously doing great execution upon the Enemy and after they had done playing His Excellencies own Regiment advanced up towards the aforesaid Towns together with the Lord Sey his Regiment and Colonell Langham accompanied with fourteene Troops of Horse who performed that which they took in hand so undantedly and with such Noble and Heroick courage that they may well be styled the undanted spirits of Christendome For no sooner had Colonell Langham brought up his Regiment and placed them in a fa●r battalia but they immediatly fell on fighting for the space of three hours most intollerable being resolved either to lose their own lives or to win that honour which the former Blew-Coats hath lost It is credibly reported that the Enemy lost in this fight at the least seven hundred men besides many hundreds that are taken Prisoners Then the other two Regiments commanded by his Excellency and the Lord Sey marched up to relieve Collonell Langham where they did great execution the Orenge Coats fighting with the same Courage and Resolution as they formerly did at Kinton and after much shot spent on both sides the Cavaleirs retreated and left the Towne of Marlow together with above two thousand of their Confederates dead behind them besides many that were slain and taken Prisoners as they were running away Thus by the great mercy and providence of God his Excellencie hath obtained the victory giving unto them a farre greater Overthrow then they had at Kinton insomuch that they have now cleered the Townes of Marlow and Henley A True Relation of His Majesties proceedings at Oxford IT is credibly informed that His Majesty will abide this Winter Quarter at Oxford Also there is great preparation for Her Majesty the Queene of Bohemia and her Son the
