CERTAIN PROPOSITIONS MADE By Sir William Waller At the Surrender of Arundell-Castle Together with A List of the Names OF The Commanders taken in the said Castle Also Verses Gratulatory Licensed and Printed according to Order Printed by JOHN FIELD Jan. 11. 1644. A Gratulatory as it was presented to the Lady Waller upon her Husbands taking of Arundell Castle MAdame Bay-crowned Victory and Fame Your husbands Pages bade me in his name Salute you and though it be no news tell Of his renowned Acts at Aurndel Your pardon then that I thus rudely presse To kisse your hands in a poetlick dresse At such a time too when the most do see All as antick set out in Poesie But yours are not vulgar eyes nor the stone Lesse precious which a Swine hath trampled on Nor do I think you will more lightly set A Jemme though in a worthlesse cabinet I here present a Jewell which I dare Pronounce though from mean hands it come most rare Your husbands honour from whose brighter flame These borrowed sparks pay tribute to his name And must confesse that they can nothing give Worthy of him by whom themselves must live That goodnesse of that cause for whom he fights In alarms and arms spending the tedious nights Were praise enough though he perhaps should come Which heav'n forbid to us successesse home But when unto our joy we see him goe With triumph on against the common foe And raise his Trophes there within those walls That had conspir'd and vow'd his funeralls Me thinks our narrow language is too poor To entertain his honours wealth and store Me thinks I already read that larger page Of Chronicle in the ensuing Age Which shall contain his Name unlesse that he Goe on so far it must a Volume be Then as I turn the leaves perhaps I finde Some lofty strain to speak his gallant minde And tell our after-nephewes part of all That made him up a perfect Generall And what may he not do to whom successe Is due except our sins do make it lesse Why then may it not written be as well He conquer'd all the South as Arundell Or shall we think his active spirit meant Only to stop the passage into Kent The yet half Pagan Welch that have no sight To distinguish because they want true light Except him may he on then to display Together with his standard a bright day To that dark corner and expell from thence The enemies advantage rude ignorance And on his name may this due honour rest He made good one side all from East to West This is enough it were not mect to pray Or wish all fortune from the rest away When other Heroes now in every field Command opposers to despaire and yeeld On one side Fairfax t'other Manchester The Scots behind brave Essex every where Whose peerlesse honour is thus to retain Himself supreme of such a noble train The lustre of whose Crests in marching forth Will shine more bright in conquest of the North. Thus Madam in our thoughts the work is end ed Religion and the State by you befriended All must confesse thanks who know what a mind You bear beyond the rest of woman-kind That can with so much willingnesse expose Your chiefest Iewell to the reach of foes Dispend with all your marriage joyes so far To hazard them upon the chance of war But doubtlesse 't will be greater joy to see Him laden back with prize and victory And then some pen more able shall rehearse His worthy deeds in Chronicle not Verse Propositions made by Sir VVilliam Waller to the besieged in Arundle-Castle 1 I require the Castle of Arundell to be delivered into my hands by to morrow morning ten a clock 2 That all Collonels of Horse and Foot and all Horse Arms Ammunition and military provision what ever be then delivered unto me entire and unspoyled 3 That all Commanders Officers and Gentlemen have fair quarter and civill usage 4 That all Souldiers shall have quarter for their lives 5 That for security of performance Sir Edward Bishop and Sir Edward Foord be immediatly delivered into my hands Will Waller Explication 1 By fair quarter I understand giving life to those that yeeld with imprisonment of their persons but civill usage which is sufficient security they shall not be plundered 2 Concerning the place where they shall be sent I will not determine but will be left to mine own freedom without further capitulation 3 The Ministers are included in the Articles and are prisoners as well as the souldiers 4 When I send away the Officers I shall take care that they shall not want horses to carry them but will not be bound to let them have their own horses A List of the Names of the Commanders taken by Sir Will.
