Country
,
for
yesterday
they
tooke
by

the
little
Towne
of
Pomes
,
which
was
guarded
by
this
City
,
where
they
made
quarter
according
to
their
owne
pleasure
,
but
now
the
report
goes
,
that
they
will
goe
to
their
winter
quarter
all
except
6
Regiments
,
which
are
to
besiege
Crentznach
,
in

since

troops

leaving

baggage

with
an
intent
to
surprize
young
Lamboys
regiment
lying
at
Hogsstate

and
in
his
march
he
met
with
the
Weymarish
garrison
,
which
under
the
command
of
Colonell
Latomo
,
had
marched
out
of
Friedberg
,
which
hee
joyned
to
his
troops
:
but
betwixt
Bergen
and
Selbach
he
lighted
upon
the
Imperiall
Colonell
Count
of
Gall
,
having
about
him
two
regiments
,
and
there
being
at
that
time
fallen
a
very
thick
mist
,
they
came
one
upon
another
afore
they
were
aware
on
't
;
wherefore
the
said
Count
of
Gall
asked
,
what
forces
they
were
:
the
Weymarish
presently
told
him
what
they
were
;
whereupon
the
said
Count
of
Gall
gave
immediatly
fire
at
them
,
and
pressed
very
vehemently
upon
them
,
thinking
to
disperse
them
presently
;
but
the
Weymarish
gave
him
such
entertainment
,
that
he
was
forced
to
retire
:
whereupon
the
said
Rosa
assaulted
him
with
his
troops
on
all
sides
,
so
that
hee
was
forced
to
breake
his
battell
aray
in
a
great
confusion
,
the
said
Count
of
Gall
himself
was
wounded
,
and
together
with
many
other
high
officers
taken
prisoners
,
his
Sergeant
Major
Brentsen
,
a
stout
souldier
,
with
many
other
officers
,
was
slaine
upon
the
place
:
and
of
those
two
regiments
above
a
thousand
horsemen
were
ruinated
,
though
the
said
Rosa
obtained
but
six
Standards
,
because
one
regiment
consisting
of
Dragoniers
,
had
not
colours
:
he
got
also
all
the
baggage
of
foure
other
regiments
,
together
with
the
coach
of
the
Count
of
Gall
,
and
his
silver
waggon
,
for
which
silver
waggon
the
said
Count
of
Gall
hath
offerd
60000
Rix
dallers
,
because
he
had
upon
the
same
many
costly
jewels
.
The
booty
,
which
is
extraordinary
great
,
is
carried
to
Ziegenhayn
,
onely
many
waggons
were
left
in
the
field
,
which
are
carried
away
by
the
Boores
.
This
over-throw
caused
such
a
terrour
amongst
other
Imperiall
regiments
,
that
the
Magistrates
of
this
citie
were
faine
to
grant
passage
to
Lamboys
,
and
two
other
regiments
to
march
through
this
citie
to

other
side
of
the

,
else
they
would
have
sped
no
better
then
the

of

did

In

word

the
terror
is
so

not

staid

The

from

say
he
intends

goe

so
on

to

against

because
it

assured
that
Generall
Bannier
is
comming
hitherwards
with
the
whole
Army
,
into
Misnia
,
it
is
feared
he
will
attempt
something
against
this

he
carried
along
with
him
a
great
number
of
small
boats
,
upon
waggons
,
which
makes
some
thinke
,
that
hee
will
make
an
attempt
upon
one
or
other

on

Some
of

Major
Pfuels
regiments
lye

within

ransacke
the

threatning

that
they
will
fire

burne
downe

that
refuse
to

the
demanded
contribution
.
All
former
invasions
of
the
Swedes
have
not
been
so
terrible
to
this
countrey
,
as
this
now
is
made
by
Generall
Major
Pfuel
:
and
besides
,
the
cities
that
are
almost
totally
ruinated
,
must
provide
twenty
or
thirty
or
more
horses
,
to
mount
againe
the
dismounted
horsemen
,
and
they
must
likewise
provide
for
them
all
the
furniture
.
Of
the
city
of
Hall
alone
,
they
demand
100000
Rixdallers
,
and
fiftie
horses
to
mount
againe
so
many
dismounted
horsemen
;
or
else
if
they
doe
not
pay
the
money
,
they
will
ruinate
the

we
heare

SIR
,
I
cannot
let
passe
,
to
give
you
a
briefe
rehears
ll
of
the
sudden
alteration
here
,
viz.
Vpon
Saturday
last
the
pro
currant
the
Secretary
Migel
de
Vas
Gonsaluez
was
slaine
in
his
quarter
in
the
Palace
by
the
Nobility
,
and
throwne
out
at
the
window
in
the
Terrara
de
passa
,
where
his
corps
did
remaine
all
that
day
and
night
following
,
being
footed
and
stript
by
the
people
,
his
beard
,
eares
,
and
some
of
his
members
cut
off
:
and
next
morning
it
was
conveyed
in
most
abject
manner
to
the
Misericordia
.
Presently
when
the
Secretary
was
slaine
,
the
Gentry
rode
through
most
streets
of
the
citie
,
well
accompanied
and
armed
,
crying
,
Viva
Don
Guan
quarto
,
which
was
so
generally
received
by
the
people
,
that
there
appeared
not
the
least
oppoposition
,
all
taking
armes
in
the
cause
,
appearing
under
their
colours
in
the
Terra
de
passa
,
to
wait
the
command
of
the
Nobility
,
now
Governours
.
The
day
was
solemnized
with
joy
,
by
ringing
of
bells
,
and
discharging
the
great
ordnance
of
ships
in
the
river
,
which
for
the
most
part
were
English
.
Sunday
the
second
of
December
,
the
castle
of
Lisbone
rendred
to
the
Nobility
,
and
two
dayes
after
the
castle
of
Bellyne
,
for
want
of
victuals
,
and
now
they
are
upon
S.
Guans
,
that
doth
yet
hold
out
,
but
within
few
dayes
will
be
forced
also
to
render
.
The
King
came
to
the
citie
two
dayes
since
,
and
now
is
a
stage
building
upon
Terra
de
passa
,
for
him
to
bee
sworne
and
crowned
,
which
the
King
doth
desire
to
doe
in
the
view
of
the
world
,
to
shew
,
as
he
saith
,
that
hee
comes
to
enjoy
his
right
,
which
hath
been
so
long
detained
from
him
.
The
Portuguezes
have
showne
such
celerity
as
is
to
bee
admited
,
there
having
not
been
in
this
accord
,
passing
three
or
foure
slaine
,
which
made
some
resistance
upon
the
comming
of
the
Nobility
to
the
Secretary
.
The
post
from
Spaine
,
Madrid
,
and
Sivell
,
do
not
now
goe
,
which
will
breed
much
alteration
in
trade
,
especially
with
such
as
are
Cambia-dores
:
and
likewise
I
doubt
we
shall
find●
much
alteration
for
our
English
commodities
,
all
now
changing
the
fashions
of
apparrell
,
leaving
their
owne
,
and
imitate
the
English
and
French
fashions
what
possibly
they
can
.
Thus
beseeching
God
that
all
may
be
for
the
best
,
to
whose
most
holy
protection
I
commit
you
,
and
rest
yours
to
command
:
T.
