TO THE READER.
FOr fear these Essays of Military Lists, after all the unspeakable Drudgeries undergone to Collect and digist them into those Methods they are now publish't with, should nevertheless in the first place not afford their managing Reader Drums and Trumpets enough for his Money, nor in the second place afford their happy Author a ratling round vent enough of the whole Impression for his Pains, which comes all to one Reckoning: Are you Gentlemen, who had perhaps rather read Men then Books, without any further cutting upon good Nature, bid most heartily welcome to make the Meal up with a Treat from Putney-Heath, whose Camp, and manner of Encamping described by an Eye Witness on the first of October, 1684, is here over and above served up Gratis; when but pleased to pay for the Dish you have it in: That way endeavouring rather to give you all your B [...]llys-full, if possible, in the stead of some Meagre Advertisement, garnish't with an hundred small Peccavi's to no purpose, for unavoidable great Faults in all undertakings of this Nature; indeed of all our standing Dish [...], the most naus [...]ous, whose craving sort of Rosemary some few may chan [...] to look at, but tasted of by no Body.
The major part then of those his Majesties Forces, not moving from their Posts of present Duty, of whom these scattering Sheets attempt to give the World some little light, The remaining part quartered near hand Encamped the first of October upon Putney-Heath, Officer and Souldier parading there, not in less Gay and Splendid, then in a Martial Equipage.
The Horse that day consisted of the three Troops of Guards, and of their three of Granadiers, of the Earl of Oxford's Regiment of Horse-Guards, and the Lord Churchil's Regiment of Dragoons.
The Foot of two Battalions, form'd from the Royal Regiment of Guards and their Granadiers; of one Battalion from the Cole-stream Regiment of Guards and Granadiers; of one Battalion from the Earl of Dunbarton's and their Granadiers; and lastly of one from the Admiral Regiment.
The Horse and Foot imbodied, and drawn in a continued Line, took their proper Post upon a rising Ground, in length from Right to Left near a Mile and half, viz. from the Red House near the Bowling-Green, extended cross the Heath, and fronting to the River.
The Horse at their usual depth made four Squadrons vpon the Right Wing, of which the Troops of Guards made three, and their Granadiers one. Th [...] Left Wing of Horse in the like manner made four Squadrons, [Page] whereof my Lord of Oxford's Regiment formed two, and my Lord Churchil's Dragoons the other. The three Troops of Guards flanking in that Figure upon the Right of the main Body. My Lord of Oxford's, and my Lord Churchil's Regiments flanking it on the Left: in all of Horse eight Squadrons, each consisting of two Hundred.
The Admiral's Battalion, as youngest in the Field, took their Post in the Centre of the Line. The two Battalions of the Royal Regiment of Guards and Granadiers being drawn upon the Admiral's Right, were immediately Flanck't by the right Wing of Horse; my Lord Dunbarton's Battalion and Granadiers being Posted on the Admiral's Left, and upon my Lord Dunbarton's Left was drawn the Colestream Battalion of Guards and Granadiers, which the Left Wing of Horse immediately Flanck't. All the Foot at their Order drawn four deep, consisted of five Battalions, each of eight Companies.
The Colestream, my Lord Dunbarton's, and the Admiral's Battalions successively Exercised all three by Beat of Drum, the Military Postures of Pike, Sword, and Musket; every man dexterously discharging their Duties with an exact and general Readiness, to the great Delight and Satisfaction of their Majesties and Royal Highnesses, vouchsafing all the time of Exercise to grace their Arms with the Honour of their Presence. The other two Battalions of the Royal Regiment had not fell short of the like Performance, if Illness of Weather, when they just intended it, had not prevented: The Day proving wet and showry, was a general Impediment from proceeding at that time to any other Motions, Customary upon the like Revews. All Decampt sooner than otherwise they would have done.
The total Horse and Foot which then Rendivouz'd, were above four Thousand advantagiously Trained, and well clad Men. Commanded in the Field for that days Generalship, by the Right Honourable the Earl of Craven.
