The Preface.

Reader,

YOu have found in the preceding parts of this Ruina, under the Title of Ru­sticus, some few relations of those many plundring outrages committed on the good sub­jects lives, consciences, and Estates, by the giddy­headed Sectaries. In the second place, you have met with their fanaticke fury in destroying those once much to be admired Edifices, the Cathedrals of this Kingdome. In the third, you have seen what tyranny they have exercised over the learned and pious Divines in and about London, And in the fourth place, you have heard the querulous out-cry of that once famous University of Cambridge. In this last and re­maining part, it rests only to give you a Synop­sis, or short view of the Martiall Actions which did concomitantly occurre in the time of the other, and with it a List of suck Noblemen, Knights, Gentlemen and Commanders as peri­shed on both sides, in the fury of lesse th [...]n five yeares Warre where the men▪ cry of such as fell in [Page] defence of Religion, King and Lawes, will deser­vedly live for ever, whilest the others will dye in their owne putrefaction: In this (as in the former parts) the Reader will easily perceive a great deale of candor and impartialitie to goe along even to the end where these persecuting subjects met with strange successes, not given by God, as a blessing upon their bad cause, but as a scourge for our sinnes, which when his infinite goodnesse shall deeme to be sufficiently chastised, we doubt not but that he will burne those Rods, by destroying the Hydra-headed multitude of Sects and Heresies, by re-establishing our graci­ous Sovera [...]gne in his ancient Rights and free­dome, by reducing the Lawes to their old Chan­nell, all loyall subjects to their Liberties and E­states, and out of the dissentions and impieties of these all-commanding subjects make new Rods for their deserved chastisement, which we shall patiently expect in Gods good time.

Post-script.

THere remaines now (Reader) nothing to compleat this short-sad story, but a Catalogue of the persons of note slaine within this Kingdome since the beginning of these bloody warres, (not to speake of those many thou­sands of inferiour Ranke) which may well Challenge even from an Adamantine heart, the tribute of a blee­ding Eye, the rather, since theres hardly any story can parallel these Calamities, which if truly resented, will exact from all good Christians an earnest and con­tinuall supplication, that Almighty God would please to avert his Judgements from us; to set a Period to these distractions; and to preserve our most Gracious King from the fury of his Enemies; to deliver him out of their bloody hands; and (in his owne due time) to re-establish him in his Throne.

A Catalogue of the names of all or the most part of the Lords, Knights, Comman­ders, and persons of quality slaine or executed by Law Martiall on both sides, from the be­ginning of this unnaturall Warre to the 25. of March. 1647.

But before we proceed to give you the Names, we must in duty breathe forth some pious Eju­lations in memory of so many gallant souls, slain on His Majesties part.

IMmortall Spirits, whose transcendent worth
Hath made you such, while it hath brought you forth
By a most glorious Birth, into a Light
Holds no alternate course with darksome Night.
Refulgent Starres, in Honour's Orbe you shine,
Of the first Magnitude: Who did decline
No Combats, signall Enterprises, or
The wants and suff'rings that attend on War;
But fought for Church, for Caesar, and your Lawes,
In all things disadvantag'd, save your Cause
And valiant hearts, which made you bold t'oppose
Your noble Bloud against ignoble Foes.
You need no Marble Statua's, or Brasse
To help transmit your Actions; which shall passe
To all succeeding Ages, by the Tongues
Of learned Bards, the subject of their Songs.
No Flux of Time shall cancell any Name,
Your swords have graven on the leaves of Fame:
Who swell'd her breast with your departing breath,
To trumpet loud the Glories of your Death.
Wherein the living wish with you a roome,
To draw immortall Honours from that Toombe,
Which shaded stands with noble Palmes that spring
From the pure bloud you shed for Charles your King;
On whose perpessions may the Heav'ns looke downe,
In vindication of his injur'd Crowne.

[Page]

An Elegy upon the much lamen­ted death of Captaine William Laborne, slain at Sheriffe-Hutton in Yorkshire.

FOr God, his holy Church, and King
He dy'd, whose Dirge my Muse doth sing:
For God, in duty; Church, in zeale:
For th' King, in love to th' Common-weale.
For God he dy'd, with God he lives;
For th' Church he dy'd, which triumph gives;
For th' King he dy'd, with th' King of kings
His blessed soule Alleluja sings.
Thus God, Church, King, have each a share
In Labornes death, a mirror rare,
Wherein brave minds may have a sight,
How for God, Church, and King to fight.
Persons of Note, and Commanders slaine on the Parliaments part, where the Reader may ob­serve, that as His Majesty had on his side ten Gen­tlemen at least, for every one on their side, it must by consequence follow, that His Majesty must lose many more of note then they. Besides, their Offi­cers being for the most part Trades-men, of small quality, and lesse fortunes, when any of them were slaine (as doubtlesse there are many more then are come to our knowledge) there was little cause to bewaile their losse, and lesse to eternize their me­mories.
