Chapter XXIV: Part III: The Crisis

"Robin, be honest still. God keep thee in the midst of snares. Thou hast naturally a valiant spirit. Listen to God, and He shall increase it upon thee, and make thee valiant for the truth. I am a poor creature that write to thee, the poorest in the world, but I have hope in God, and desire from my heart to love His people."--_Lieutenant-General Cromwell to Colonel Hammond, Nov. 1648._
