The Armies of the two King’s fought a great Battle at Sedgemoor, the victor wrote the History. This is an account from one side.
The day is lost but our Foot Guards make a last stand before the Grenadiers finally break the us. God save the King.
Monmouth has left the field and the enemy is pressing us from both flanks but we pull back in good order.
The enemy is becoming bolder and press our flanks with horse, yet our Scythemen put fear into them.
The enemy has started to cross the ditch and overlap our flank but our reserve now support our line.
Now we must deploy into Line and engage the enemy, for we are now committed to this fight.
As we advance our own horse cause disruption as they flee through our ranks
We advance with haste to the Ditch guided by the match of our enemy
This night we march to Longmoor to surprise the enemy but a troopers pistol goes off at half-cock.
