and France as being divided at home and many of them had the confidence openly to glory that they would break that Yoke wherewith the Kings of the Earth oppress the People Nor truly could any man have told where the fierceness of this Scourge would have ended and where that Floud would have spent it self unless the divine Majesty which hath hollowed a channel for the Sea set bounds and limits to it and said Hither shalt thou come and no further had not opposed the over-swelling pride of these Waters and commanded his Angel to sound the Retreat A Chronological INDEX FOR This First Part.

Garrison to Kilkenny about six hundred English falling off to the Enemy he marches thither with fifteen hundred A horrid piece of Villany and not to be excused were it not for the bad Correspondence that was betwixt the English and Irish Souldiers and that he would preserve his own Irish entire for a Battel and divide at least Cromwells Forces by the multitude of Garrisons his Army being already much impaired and hardly able to wagg worn out by Fatigue Fluxes lying abroad in the Fields and for want of Winter-Quarters About this time by the Mediation of Daniel Oneal a Peace was made betwixt the Lord Lieutenan and Ouen-Ro-Oneal with the rest of the Irish Papists almost upon the same Conditions as we told you formerly had been offered to the Rump-Parliament and were rejected by them and thereupon both Forces Joyn. But Ouen shortly after died Nor is it here to be pass'd over in silence how the Princes Rupert and Maurice with no more than six Ships the remaining part of that Fleet which two years before fell off from the Rump-Parliament had the boldness to infest the Seas hover upon the Coast of Ireland put in Souldiers and Ammunition and by all ways divert the supplies of the Enemy But Blake and Popham pursuing them with a stronger Fleet they were fain to sly to King sale and from thence the Sea-men being idle and running away to the Enemy that they might consult their own safety prevent the danger that might befall them from the defection of Munster which they might foresee and that they might have the opportunity of Sea-room Wind and Tide favouring them they break through the whole Fleet of the Enemies and with the loss only of two Ships escaping out of that noose they steer their Course towards Portugal But this is out of the Rode I now return to Cromwell whose Victories were such as could not be limited by the banks of the River of Barrow For he cast over it a Bridge of Boats at Ross having first taken Estionege a small but Walled Town standing upon this side of the same River five Miles above Ross Afterward having past a great part of his Horse with his nimblest Foot he reduces Carick a Town upon the River Suir eight miles above Waterford then quickly crossing the River he takes Passage a very strong Fort with five Canon lying two Miles below Waterford where the Conjunction of the two Rivers Suir and Barrow by the impetuosity of the Current render it difficult for Vessels to reach the Town Nay he had the boldness to attaque Waterford it self though in vain But Dungarvan which the English Souldiers might have defended with the Canon and Ammunition is delivered up into his hands And now at length Cromwell begins to think of Winter Quarters for refreshing of his Men who were not above four thousand Sound and in Health The Lord Lieutenant on the other hand had eight thousand which though for the most part they were raw Men yet were very conveniently posted But what he had best to do or whether to go he was uncertain For neither could he march back to Dublin being at such a distance without a necessity of Fighing nor yet Winter in those parts without the greatest Inconvenience the Enemy being posted about him on all Hands who would continually Allarm him and intercept his Provisions Whilst he was casting about in his mind what course to take the most desirable and by Cromwell long expected defection happened for all Munster that had stood for the King revolted to the Rump-Parliament Some combined Souldiers had long ago given hopes of this if ever occasion offered and now Cromwell being upon their Borders and past the River Barrow when they saw Succours at hand they attempt the performance of what they had promised The first sparks of this Flame appeared long ago at Youghal which the Mayor and a great many Citizens conspiring with two Colonels and other Commanders agreed to deliver into the hands of Cromwell The Lord Inchiqueen smelling the Treachery seized the Mayor and Souldiers and committed them to Prison in Cork Youghal and King sale until they might be brought to a fair Tryal But that kind of Custody was unlucky since thereby the sparks spread farther For the Colonels being too negligently kept at Cork draw over the Commanders one after another into the same Conspiracy and in the absence of Inchiqueen whil'st the Souldiers carelesly kept the Guard they of a sudden seize the Town From thence the sparks fly into Youghal Kingsale Bandon-Bridge Mallow and other places and by the coming of the Lord Broghill Colonel Far and a great many of Cromwell's Forces was fomented into a Conflagration Inchiqueens House at Cork was plundered where neither the modesty of the dress could protect his Lady nor innocent Age his Children for all together were clapt up in Prison and there detained till by an exchange that happened shortly after they were set at liberty Here at length Cromwell in the beginning of December put his Men into Winter Quarters and disappointed the Lord Lieutenant who had intercepted his way on his return to Dublin with an Army double in number Nor will it be amiss in this place to take notice of the death of Jones for it happened about the same time who basely stained the Reputation that he gained in subduing the Irish Rebels by the defending even unto the last the Cause of the Murderers of the King The Lord Lieutenant in the mean time that he might provide what lay in his power against ensuing Storms calls a general Council where representing how grateful and profitable the Divisions and Animosities were to the Enemy he intreats the Clergy Nobility and Gentry to mutual Peace and Concord shewing them how that might be done This produced amongst all a pretence of Sorrow for what was past of true Friendship by shaking Hands and promises of mutual Assistance in causing the Commands of the Lord Lieutenant to be obey'd pay raised for the Souldiers Quarters and other necessaries for the War provided and in persuading the Inhabitants especially of Limmerick Waterford and Galloway to Obedience and Submission This put the Lord Lieutenant in heart again who whilst Cromwell refreshed his Men in Winter-Quarters resolves to recover Wexford and Passage For the effecting of which Inchiqueen Armstrong and Trevers are designed for the one and Farell with the Forces of Ouen-Ro-Oneal for the other Farell marching secretly to Passage falls into the Snare that he had laid for others For Cromwell presently having notice of the Design Colonel Zankie pursues him in the Rear Alarms and puts him to flight kills three hundred takes two hundred and had not suffered a Man to escape if in the nick of time Farell had not in great disorder cross'd the River in Boats By this misfortune it plainly appeared how the Waterfordians were affected whilst
Officers of the Army were again conjured from Hell a new and unheard-of Generation of Quakers sprung up of whom the Parliament brought before them a considerable Ring-leader that I shall now briefly discourse of James Naylor was the Man who had heretofore served under Lambert and now had the impudence to personate Jesus Christ imitating his Words Looks and Carriage And to so great madness he grew that his Boldness encreasing through the Applauses of some and the Admiration of others he would represent him in all things For mounting a Horses Colt he came riding towards the City of Bristol those of his Sect strewing the Way with Leaves and Boughs of Trees and crying Hosanna Hosanna Blessed is he that cometh in the Name of the Lord. But the Madness stops not here neither for the distracted Fellow affects Divine Honours as if he could raise the Dead heal the Sick and fast after the Example of Christ At length the Parliament tired out with the continued Clamours of Accusers having cited him to appear before them sentence him to be publickly Whipp'd Pilloried and committed to perpetual Imprisonment But the Parliament being dissolved this Monster of Mankind was set at liberty by an Order of the Rump-Parliament when it revived again About that time Cromwell's Life was in danger from one Sundercome a Republican It was said that he was suborned by Alonso de Cardenas formerly Embassadour in England from the King of Spain and then living in Flanders to kill him He had often taken a House fit for committing the Fact but his Hopes always failing him he got him a Blunderbuss that could discharge twelve Bullets at a time resolving with that out of an Arbor upon the side of the Rode where the Way grows narrow at Hammersmith near London to shoot Cromwell as he past in his Coach to Hampton-Court and forthwith mounting a fleet Horse make his Escape on the opposite side But because there was a necessity of having another privy to the Design when the time that he was to go drew near one Toop belonging to the Guards is engaged in the Plot. But one Assassine betrays another Toop Sundercome who that he might be the first that suffered for Treason under this Government by a new Statute is arraigned and condemned for conspiring the Death of the Protector However some few hours before the time of his designed Execution he was found dead in his Bed though his Body appeared found there being no Marks of Violence either inwardly or outwardly to be discovered Of which thing according to the diversity of Humours People might severally judge as they pleased In the mean while the fiercer Fifth-Monarchy-men and Republicans making all the Preparations they could for a sudden Insurrection against the new Monarchy in the Bud are discovered and presently seised amongst other things a Standard being taken bearing a Lion Couchant with this Inscription Quis suscitabit eum Who shall rouse him This Rising then being wholly defeated Lawson a Sea-Commander Colonel Harrison Rich and several Officers of the Army with Danvers and others who could not endure the Regal Authority of Cromwell are clapp'd up in Prison Lambert also when he perceived that all his Hopes of Succession were cut off by an Ordinance of Parliament began to tack about and strike in with the Republicans Which so soon as Cromwell had notice of he presently recalled his Commission and disbanded him appointing Fleetwood to be next to himself in Power for he thought it neither safe nor fit that he should have the Chief Command in the Army who professed himself an open Enemy to the Civil Government Cromwell in the mean time that he might by fair and gentle means draw over more of the Republicans and endear them to himself promoted many of them into the House of Lords that they might seem to share with himself in the Government but such mean Fellows of no Birth nor Merit raised out of the Dregs of the Rabble who were contemptible and ridiculous to the real Lords and Peers could neither give nor receive any Splendour or Nobility Would ye have a List of some of them Let Pride then lead the Dance a most abject Rascal who had served a Brewer and that he might now with greater security cheat the Publick he purchases a Grant for Brewing Beer for the Protector 's Family and for serving the Fleet at Sea Huson was another who not long before cobbled old Shoes in a Stall Berkstead who heretofore sold Needles Bodkins and Thimbles and would have run on an Errand any where for a little Money but who now by Cromwell was preferred to the Honourable Charge of Lieutenant of the Tower of London Cooper who had been a Haberdasher of Small-wares in Southwark Berry a Woodmonger and Whaley a broken Clothier who had removed into Scotland until the breaking out of the Wars I shall name no more of them that I may not turn the Readers Stomach In the mean time he joyns to them for Companions five or six of the Ancient Nobility and gives them place in the House of Lords who nevertheless refuse to herd with the rest and all refrain the House that they might not pollute their Blood by such a Contagion Others called out of the House of Commons to this Other House prefer their own Seats and will not be reckoned amongst those Peers The two Sons and one Son-in-Law of Cromwell are brought into this House For it is to be observed that he had lately married his two younger Daughters the eldest having formerly married to Cleypole the one to Mr. Rich Nephew to the then Earl of Warwick who lived not long after and the other to the Lord Falconberge of whom now we speak Henry Cromwell his younger Son whom he made Deputy of Ireland and Richard the elder of whom since I am to mention him in the Sequel it will be fit I speak a little at present before I leave this House of Lords That Cromwell might remove all suspicion of arrogating to himself and Family the Supreme Authority he sends his eldest Son Richard into the Country to take his Pleasure in Hunting and Hawking Where he a Man of a good Nature courteous and affable far from the Tricks of his Father receiving the Common People hospitably diverting himself with the Gentry and behaving himself civilly to all besides many good Offices that he did at Court and elsewhere not onely gained the Applause of the People but obliged a great many Persons of Note and Quality But at length his Father took him off of these Toys and by degrees inured him to Publick Business ordering him first to sit in the Committee of Trade then in the House of Commons and now at last having called him as we have just now said up to the House of Lords Besides he made him Chancellor of the University of Oxford one of his Privy-Council and a Colonel of the
