To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For my part, I confess I had not [207] Digitized by Googk MEMOIRS OF A CAVALIER much religion in me, at that time ; but I thought religion rightly practised on both sides would have made us all better friends ; and therefore sometimes I began to think, that both the bishops of our side, and the preachers on theirs, made religion rather the pretence than the cause of the war. And from those thoughts I vigorously argued it at the council of war against marching to Brentford, while the address for... a treaty of peace from the Parliament was in hand ; for I was for taking the Parliament by the handle which they had given us, and entering into a nego- tiation, with the advantage of its being at their own request.
I thought the king had now in his hands an op- portunity to make an honourable peace; for this battle of Edgehill, as much as they boasted of the victoiy to hearten up their friends, had sorely weakened their army, and discouraged their party too, which in effect was worse as to their army.
