The Kings Speech to his Souldiers . Gentlemen ,

YOu are called Cavaliers and Royalists , in a disgracefull manner : If I suffer in my fame , needs must you doe also . Now expresse your selves my friends and not malignants , fight for your King , the peace of the Kingdome and the Protestant Religion ; It is not so great an honour to keep the white candor of opinion , sometimes confirmed by the rabble multitude without distinction , as when our reputation hath suffered some diminution , and been in the Eclipse of Royall splendor , to make it shine out againe with cleere resplendent beames of Majesty . I have drawne and collected you from severall Countries , and you have like true friends followed me in all my occasions and fortunes we are now all engaged as near as life or fame concernes us , and if I thought that any of your affections wanted provocation to stir your magnanimous resolutions in the action of this dayes service , I would use words to inflame your anger , and tell you some reason of high encouragement , that should produce in you all a nobly mounted anger , since the inequality of this field , pretended for the defence of the Protestane Religion , and by me intended to the same purpose , doth expresse a secret distrust of reality in my Royall intentions . You are called Cavaliers in a reproachfull signification , and yeare all designed for the slaughter if you do not manfully behave your selves in this Battell : They call all the Kings Troopers Cavaliers ; but let them now know that the valour of the Cavaliers hath honoured that name both in France and other Countries , and now let it be known in England as well as Horseman or Trooper , it signifying no more but a Gentleman serving his King on horseback , shew your selves therefore now couragious Cavaliers , and beat backe all opprobrious speeches and aspersions cast upon you by the Enemy . Let them know and discerne that for your King you dare adventure your selves , and for the eternall reward of a just acquired honour .
