THE REBEL'S Conspiracy against Kingsaile in the Province Mounsteere, and the County of Cork.  
Upon the 18. of December came the rebels towards Kingsale, thinking to have entered into the City by policy, but not knowing of the watchword, which was, God protect true protestants, they were interrupted of their purpose.  
Then they marched twenty miles from the City, and the next evening, their Colonel by name, Hankscomb, sent spies abroad to see how they were fortified who were taken by Captain Roberts, an Englishman.  
Then did the aforesaid Colonel send other spies which were taken also, then perceived he how the matter went: wherefore he resolutely went on, and at this time doth besiege Kingsaile, where without the City, they committed a bloody outrage, to the terror of all those which have heard it, according to the Relation of many Ministers upon the last 〈◊〉 day, beside the report which came from thence upon Tuesday, being the 20 of December.  
A gentlewoman not knowing of the besiege, accompanied only with her man, made toward Kingsaile, who were taken by the rebels: who first of all did hang up the man, than did they cea●e upon the Gentlewoman, and plucking off her head covering, four of them wound the hair of their head about their skanes, and stuck them into the ground, and afterwards the aforesaid four had their will of her, and afterwards ripped up her belly to see whether she were with child or no. This was done within four miles of Kingsaile.   

A SPEECH Made By the Earl of Tyrone to the Rebels in the woods.  
How it doth rejoice me to s●e St. Patrick● Banner flourish, by noble and free spirits.  
How am I clothed with admiration to see the noble actions by you so courageously performed.  
Go on, go on, brave spirits, and let the world tremble hearing of your undaunted actions, and expert Chivalry.  
Swim, swim, unto your desires through Seas of blood, and let the Heretics be the sole object of your hate: as yet you have done bravely, the God of Battle crowning you with unparalleled victory.  
As I said before, so I encourage you again to go on, and daily delight my sense of seeing with bloody spectaeles: bear upon your swords a bloody Ensign, each point being covered with the heart of an Heretic. It is not unknown to you all how my Father suffered, and how I was forced to fly: it is not unknown to you all, how willing I am in your defence to lose my dearest and blood: it is not unknown to you all what pains I have taken in your defence. First leaving of Spain to secure you. Secondly, by providing forces to assist you, and thirdly, what affection I have borne toward you. Wherefore as you have been, so always be valiant, for my own part I will out dare the bullets of your enemies, and will spit in the face of all cowards which are amongst you, I spoke it not because I feared your hitherto continued noble acts would cease from practice, but the more nobly to encourage you.  Then turned he himself about to Sir Hugh Oneal● and spoke thus unto him. 
For your own part Sir, I shall owe my future fortunes to your service, or rather friendship; for by you I live, by you I am in safety, to conclude, by you I hope to attain unto that, which by my foes heretofore I was put by.  
Wherefore as you have been, so continue▪ so may you command him hereafter. which heretofore hath been terrified by those, which we now will bend our forces against.  
Those which have debarred our friends of their accustomed freedom, and made them more than tributary slaves.  
Wherefore take my words, as spoken from a friend, fight couragionsly, and live famous eternally: consider that Religion urgeth you unto it: consider that freedom from bondage urgeth you unto it: consider that your intimate friend entreats you unto it, who desires to live no longer than you may be happy.  

The place of most of the Rebel's habitation being Karloh in the County of Dublin.  
THe rebels, most of them I mean at this present time have their habitation in Karloh, five miles from the City of Dublin: in the south part of Ireland, many villages thereabout they have burned down by fire.  
Very strong they are, and will not easily be repelled, and have many Engines of war. At the first coming to that place, they shot down most of the houses, the place now is their own, and are like to keep that, and they will have many other places, unless sudden aid, which the Protestants pray may speedily be sent unto them; else are they like to be utterly destroyed and England lose its privilege of Traffic there.   

Verses made by a s●uldier.  
Come send forth aid, do that without excuse,  
And then reform you of every foul abuse,  
you shall have time, no doubt, then make good speed  
It's good to stench the wound that still doth bleed.  
When rebels hunt, and seek revenge in blood,  
It's good to haste, their force may be with stood,  
And by collecting of our force together,  
We doubt but Christ will send us safely thither;  
The winds shall serve the waters calm, shall be,  
If we this thing perform with courage free,  
pick hence those Lidgers proud papistical,  
They still pro●ect, they seek to work our fall:  
They blaze such rumours, and such mist they cast,  
To hinder us to circumvent our haste:  
That so they may obtain a longer time  
To bring in forces to subvert our climb.  
Now haste with speed, now let it acted be,  
press soldiers now with courage bold and free.    
FINIS.
