Religious Retreat Sounded to a Religious Army (1647)

This little essay has three aims. The first is to entreat you to recollect yourselves in cool blood and with all meekness of wisdom, resolve to reserve such a competent army of select forces on foot to neither be a terror nor a burden to the country. Second, to leave a free Parliament, and third, to give you a true information of what errors and temptations you have and may fall into. Due to the age and scarcity of the original we reproduced, some pages may be spotty, faded or difficult to read. Written in Old English.
