A more full Relation of the great Victory obtained by our Forces neer Worcester:
The taking the City of Worcester, and totall routing of the Scotch Army.
THe account I gave you by the last Messenger, though it was rude and unpollished, yet it was a true one as to the Narrative of the Victorie God hath blessed us with; only the particulars were wanting, which I have here inclosed. Our men went on very resolutely, and possest themselves of Worcester by [Page 2] eight of the clock on Wednesday night, onely there were about one thousand three hundred who fled to the Castle Mount, who surrendred themselves [...] mercy, next morning. The Mercy is highly seasonable and glorious; and though in the Field we kil'd more then we tooke Prisoners; Yet upon entering the Town after the Souldiers fury was over, there were multitudes Prisoners, as in the List inclosed you may see. We heare of many that are taken by Major Generall Harrison, Colonell Lilburne, and the Countrie people. I hope the Lord will deliver if not all of them, yet most into our hands, so that few shall escape. What shall we returne unto the Lord for [Page 3] his great kindnesse, his mercies never faile. I suppose we are now drawing a little neerer you. The last newes from Scotland is great also; Old Lesley, Crawford, Linsey, Ogleby, with divers of qualitie, besides three hundred taken that were making Levies to raise the Siege at Dundee. This is in great hast; but the full of all things that I know.
For my deare friend, Captaine George Bishop, these at Whitehall. Hast, hast.
