over_o many_o their_o hope_n in_o he_o and_o his_o favour_n towards_o they_o to_o be_v more_o specious_a and_o magnificent_a lacedaemonian_a we_o must_v then_o confess_v that_o the_o lacedaemonian_a

and_o victual_n to_o effect_v their_o enterprise_n commonweal_n in_o regard_n of_o the_o carthaginian_a it_o seem_v to_o have_v be_v well_o institute_v since_o its_o beginning_n according_a to_o all_o difference_n they_o have_v king_n and_o a_o aristocratical_a power_n of_o senator_n the_o commons_o also_o have_v their_o prerogative_n in_o matter_n which_o belong_v unto_o they_o final_o in_o that_o which_o concern_v their_o general_a assembly_n it_o be_v like_a unto_o that_o of_o the_o roman_n and_o lacedaemonian_n it_o be_v true_a that_o in_o the_o time_n of_o hannibal_n war_n that_o of_o the_o carthaginian_n be_v less_o and_o that_o of_o the_o roman_n better_a in_o every_o commonweal_n and_o action_n there_o be_v a_o certain_a natural_a increase_n and_o vigour_n and_o consequent_o a_o diminution_n so_o as_o all_o thing_n be_v perfect_a in_o their_o vigour_n moreover_o these_o commonweal_n be_v at_o that_o time_n different_a for_o the_o great_a the_o carthaginian_n be_v in_o the_o beginning_n have_v have_v many_o better_a fortune_n than_o the_o roman_n the_o more_o they_o have_v be_v weaken_v in_o regard_n of_o rome_n it_o flourish_v then_o even_o in_o order_n and_o policy_n and_o as_o the_o people_n of_o carthage_n take_v great_a authority_n upon_o they_o in_o council_n so_o the_o senate_n have_v great_a power_n among_o the_o roman_n wherefore_o as_o in_o public_a resolution_n the_o commons_o in_o the_o one_o give_v their_o advice_n commonweal_n and_o the_o best_a man_n in_o the_o other_o so_o the_o roman_n have_v be_v more_o excellent_a in_o their_o public_a affair_n where_o if_o they_o have_v be_v in_o danger_n of_o their_o whole_a estate_n yet_o use_v good_a council_n they_o have_v in_o the_o end_n vanquish_v the_o carthaginian_n but_o for_o that_o which_o concern_v a_o sudden_a preparation_n to_o war_n the_o carthaginian_n be_v more_o active_a at_o sea_n and_o prepare_v their_o fleet_n better_a for_o that_o this_o practice_n be_v hereditary_a and_o ancient_a unto_o they_o and_o they_o traffic_v more_o by_o sea_n then_o any_o other_o man_n but_o as_o for_o the_o footman_n the_o roman_n make_v better_a use_n than_o the_o carthaginian_n for_o that_o they_o whole_o addict_v themselves_o unto_o it_o in_o regard_n of_o the_o carthaginian_n they_o be_v careless_a of_o footman_n as_o for_o horseman_n they_o take_v some_o good_a order_n the_o reason_n be_v for_o that_o they_o employ_v foreign_a force_n which_o be_v mercenary_n and_o the_o roman_n their_o own_o nation_n and_o burgess_n wherefore_o this_o commonwealth_n be_v more_o commendable_a than_o the_o other_o the_o which_o commit_v the_o hope_n of_o their_o liberty_n to_o the_o prowess_n of_o mercenary_a man_n and_o the_o roman_n to_o their_o own_o virtue_n and_o the_o succour_n of_o the_o ally_n wherefore_o if_o at_o any_o time_n the_o roman_n have_v make_v loss_n in_o their_o principality_n they_o resist_v with_o all_o their_o force_n the_o carthaginian_n on_o the_o other_o side_n fight_v for_o their_o country_n and_o child_n can_v abate_v their_o fury_n maintain_v the_o combat_n unto_o the_o last_o gasp_n until_o they_o have_v vanquish_v the_o enemy_n wherefore_o although_o the_o roman_n be_v as_o i_o have_v say_v inferior_a unto_o they_o in_o sea-fight_n yet_o they_o exceed_v they_o in_o the_o bounty_n of_o their_o soldier_n and_o although_o that_o in_o danger_n at_o sea_n the_o experience_n of_o naval_a combat_n be_v of_o no_o small_a importance_n yet_o the_o prowess_n of_o soldier_n at_o sea_n be_v of_o great_a profit_n for_o the_o victory_n the_o italian_n in_o truth_n be_v of_o a_o more_o excellent_a disposition_n than_o the_o pheniciens_fw-la or_o lybans_fw-la as_o well_o in_o force_n of_o body_n as_o in_o courage_n whereunto_o they_o usual_o incite_v their_o youth_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o one_o thing_n which_o may_v serve_v for_o a_o great_a presumption_n of_o the_o diligence_n of_o this_o commonweal_n ordain_v to_o breed_v up_o such_o man_n as_o will_v endure_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v purchase_v praise_n virtue_n and_o same_o unto_o their_o country_n person_n if_o at_o any_o time_n a_o
