<P>VPon the 18. of December came the re|bels towards <HI>King&s;ale,</HI> thinking to have entred into the City by policy, but not knowing of the watch-word, which was, God protect true prote&s;tants, they were interrupted of their purpo&s;e.</P>
<P>Then they marched twenty miles from the City, and the next evening, their Colonell by name, Hankscomb, &s;ent &s;pyes abroad to &s;ee how they were fortified who were taken by Captain Roberts, an Engli&s;h-man.</P>
<P>Then did the afore&s;aid Colonell &s;end other &s;pyes which were taken al&s;o, then perceived hee how the matter went: wherefore hee re&s;olutely went on, and at this time doth be&s;iege King&s;aile, where without the Citty, they committed a bloody out-rage, to the terror of all tho&s;e which
