THE ENGLISH CIVIL VVARRS.
BOOK VI.
The Contents.
New-Castle from the North, the Scots before
Doth fly: York Siege: The fight at Marston-more,
New-Castle England leaves; a short reveiw,
Of all those Northern Seiges that insue.
BEhold of men a Concourse from all parts
Of England: with arm'd hands divided hearts,
Conjur'd of King and Parliament, the right
To try by dint of sword, and Martial might;
And York-shire by the Fates design'd to bee,
The Stage whereon, to act this Tragedy.
New-Castle now deserts the Banks of Tine,
And to the Scots those Quarters doth resign,
His numerous Army almost ruin'd now,
By means insensible; And who knows how?
