preseruing and maintening the defendors of the truth and discomforting of the enemies of the same O Heauenly father the Creator of all creatures the strength of all armies the King of all kings and the worker of all wonders we thy distressed seruants do humbly beseech thee to looke downe vpon vs from the throne of thy diuine Maiestie and for thy mercies sake to take compassion on vs. We acknowledge O Lorde that our insolent actions togither with our pride and wickednes of life hath wel deserued thy wrath and heauy displeasure so that the continuance of thy wrath these many yeares vppon thy Church hath been no more then we haue iustly deserued Neuerthelesse heauenly Father we presume vpon thy strength and the multitude of thy mercies that therfore thou wilt saue and defend all those that seeke to supporte the trueth Let not thy heart be hardened against vs O Lord for thou art our father sauiour and redeemer frō the beginning We haue O Lord erred from thy wayes and contrariwise we haue hardned our hearts against thee for which nowe we remaine sorrowfull Notwithstāding let the inward sorrowes of our hearts O Lorde be an occasion to withdrawe thy wrath and heauy displeasure from vs which bringeth no other then bloudshed death and destruction vpon our selues Our enemies Lorde haue long sought to triumph ouer vs and haue greeuously spoyled thy holy Temples yea they haue made hauocke of thy creatures and haue so little regarded vs as though thou hadst neuer beene Lorde ouer vs yea as though thy glorious Name had neuer beene called on by vs O Lord we beseech thee for thy mercie sake let the malitious minds of those which seeke daily our confusion boyle away as the water doth vpon on the fire that thy mightines may be thorowly knowne to thy enemies and that they may trēble at thy wonderfull works Remember O Father that we are to thee as clay in the Potters handes wee are the works of thy fingers we are thy creatures and therfore deliuer vs O Lord from this continual tribulation where Syon is turned in to a desart and Ierusalem into continual desolation The places of holy praier wherein our forefathers haue heretofore soūded forth thy glory are now turned into heaps of fire and continuall harbors for armed men and ourland brought to confusion and the ground made like to a wildernes Withdraw therefore O heauenlie Father the rod of thy wrath from vs and thrust foorth thy merciful hand for our reliefe Thou hast lately giuen to vs a taste of cōfort in this that thy capitall enemy now liuing is retired and by thy power cōstrained to fly from among vs whom he intēded to daūt with his mighty armies great looks and politike deuices who notwithstanding the wonderfull reportes of his mightines durst not hazard his quarrel vpō a pitched field with vs although his forces were three to one To thee therefore O Lorde we render all thankes and humbly giue praise to thy heauenly Maiesty for shewing vs some comfort by daunting our enemies which had it not bin for thy our stretched arme O Lord we had remained in great daunger nay we had bin troden vnder foot like chaffe and made foode for the foules of the aire But thou hast beene our defendor and onely comfort thou hast strengthned vs that were but weake and weakned them which in shewe are verie strong Continue we beseech thee this thy goodnesse to vs for thy mercy sake blesse our friends and welwillers comforte our distressed estate and suffer not our enemies to preuaile against vs giue vs grace O Lord dayly to indeuour our selues to laud and magnifie the holy name of thee who liuest and raignest worlde without ende Amen FINIS

Martins mount if the enimy had no ambushes at the foote of the hill but they saw them plainely in an open plaine their faces turned towardes Pontauers His Maiesty passed the riuer of Voesle in the foresaid village and commanded Monsieur de la Noue to march in all hast with his forces towardes Pontarsy to stop the passage of the riuer of Fsne when in the meane while hee went to pursue the enemy And being somewhat forwarde in the plaine espied some horses to follow him with foure regiments of footemen who arriued in the said towne of Fismes and were appointed to conuoye the tronkes and bagage If his Maiestie had bene supported with fiue hundreth horsemen more then he was he would haue set vpon them but searing that his men would linger about the stuffe and carriage it made him not to venture but marched a great league within the plaine sending the said baron de Biron with 25. lanciers before his cornet of light horse Commanded also Monsieur de la Noue to send him ten soldiours out of euery companie and to lodge and refresh the rest of the armie which he did Then his maiestie made fiue small squadrons of horsemen of 50. or 60. horses in euery troupe The carbines of the enimy began to draw towardes the baron of Biron whom his Maiestie did back a farre of accompanied with the Lord Alfonze Lorse and at the same time the said baron charged the earbines in somuch that of them eight or nine were slaine vpon the place The king being ioyned with him the said Lord Alfonze shewed unto his highnes the Duke of Parma who wore at that time a flat crownd hat a great ruffe and a short mandilian furde and was mounted vpon a gray horse laying his hand vpon his sword for to make his men to retire and in a brauerie making his horse to leape six or seuen times the king doing the like of his side being distant one from an other not much more then 100. paces His Maiestie dougting that this refrait of the enimie was onelys but to draw him further in and so to compasse him with the whole bodie of their armie at the arriuall of Monsieur de la Noue who tolde him that he had séene vnto his thinking all the enimies cauallerie and infanterie in battaile aray commanded presently a retrait and not thinking that the retire would fall so long was forced to remaine foure houres in battaile aray before the enimy who came armed vnto him Whereupon he left to backe him the Baron of Biron with his troupe of light horsemen conducted by Monsieur de Sandall who had left Captaine Broust and two companies of light horse twenty paces behinde him to keepe the carbines in breath An indiscrete souldiour and one of his Maiesties troupes being fallen into the handes of the enimies light horsemen began to crie aloude for aide three went to helpe him where captaine Broust receiued a shot in his left eie wherewith hee fell dead from his horse Hereupon the said baron de Biron returned directly towardes the enimie and causing the dead bodie to be laid vpon a horse and to be carried vnto the towne of Longauall made a ferme standing vpon the top of the hill from the which he could not come downe into the said village inclosed with a lowe bricke wall but through a straight and narrow way His Maiestie thinking that the baron of Biron was indāgered would haue commanded Monsieur de Sandall to giue a charge with his light horses but ere long notice was giuen how he had preuented the enimie and that his backe forces being ioyned with him had together pursued the enimie more then a thousand paces in the playne The king knowing that besides the narrownes of the way where he was forced to passe through his enimies did vrge and presse him verie néere thought it better to hazard certaine carbins that were with him then to venture and cast away his Nobilitie caused therefore two companies the one of S.
