    Cromwell, our chief of men, who through adversity and slander has guided England to peace and truth through faith and fortitude. Much remains to be done to further conquer, as peace has victories no less renowned than war, with new threats seeking to restrict freedom of conscience from predatory ministers only concerned with wealth. Milton asks Cromwell to help save free conscience from such "hireling wolves".

    TO THE LORD GENERALL CROMWELL MAY 1652

    by John Milton

    To the Lord Generall Cromwell May 1652


    On the proposalls of certaine ministers
    at the Committee for Propagation of the Gospell

    Cromwell, our cheif of men, who through a cloud


    Not of warr onely, but detractions rude,
    Guided by faith & matchless Fortitude
    To peace & truth thy glorious way hast plough'd,
    And on the neck of crowned Fortune proud
    Hast reard Gods Trophies, & his work pursu'd,
    While Darwen stream with blood of Scotts imbru'd,
    And Dunbarr feild resounds thy praises loud,
    And Worsters laureat wreath; yet much remaines
    To conquer still; peace hath her victories
    No less renownd then warr, new foes aries
    Threatning to bind our soules with secular chaines:
    Helpe us to save free Conscience from the paw
    Of hireling wolves whose Gospell is their maw.
