Soldiers counselled and comforted a discourse delivered unto some part of the forces engaged…Souldiers counselled and comforted a discourse delivered unto some part of the forces engaged…

We wish That since our Lord says unto you, as he said unto them, I send you forth as Sheep in the midst of Wolves; this Great Shepherd may preserve you from them, and with his mighty Crook defend you, when you come into the Valley of the shadow of Death.

We wish, That your Enemies may not have their Lives in their Hands, but in Gods slings; and that God would Sling them out, as out of the middle of a Sling: While you that have your Lives in your Hands, may have your Souls bound up in the Bundle of Life.

Finally, we wish, That your Heads may be Covered in the Day of Battle; that you may by the Almighty God be made the Liberators Party, the Saviours of your Country; and that if any of you must Breath your last in the High places of the Field▪ your Souls may be Received by Him, that has Armies in Heaven, Clothed in fine Linen, White and Clean.
