the_o go_v away_o of_o those_o band_n do_v great_o weaken_v our_o army_n for_o they_o be_v six_o or_o eight_o thousand_o and_o be_v cause_n that_o the_o enemy_n do_v enterprise_n more_o bold_o to_o

to_o repose_v our_o state_n in_o their_o force_n whosoever_o he_o be_v i_o will_v not_o be_v of_o opinion_n that_o a_o king_n shall_v make_v his_o force_n of_o stranger_n nor_o that_o he_o shall_v

they_o must_v be_v fight_v withal_o or_o there_o will_v be_v no_o obedience_n but_o if_o they_o find_v themselves_o the_o weak_a they_o will_v never_o have_v the_o heart_n to_o disobey_v nor_o to_o

in_o the_o last_o rank_n which_o waste_v because_o there_o be_v no_o man_n to_o supply_v it_o so_o that_o the_o loss_n that_o the_o first_o rank_n suffer_v be_v cause_n of_o the_o consume_n of_o the_o last_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o phalanges_fw-la may_v soon_o be_v consume_v then_o disorder_v for_o to_o overthrow_v they_o be_v impossible_a because_o of_o their_o great_a number_n the_o roman_n at_o the_o first_fw-mi use_v phalanges_fw-la &_o instruct_v their_o people_n after_o the_o greek_n manner_n but_o it_o be_v long_o since_o that_o they_o mislike_v of_o their_o order_n and_o therefore_o they_o divide_v their_o people_n into_o many_o body_n to_o wit_n into_o cohorte_n &_o manipule_n for_o they_o think_v as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o that_o that_o body_n which_o have_v many_o soul_n &_o be_v compound_v of_o many_o part_n ought_v also_o to_o have_v many_o life_n the_o batailons_a of_o the_o swisser_n almain_n we_o and_o other_o do_v somewhat_o imitate_v the_o phalanges_fw-la aswell_o for_o that_o we_o do_v range_v a_o great_a number_n of_o people_n together_o as_o also_o that_o we_o do_v place_n they_o in_o such_o sort_n that_o they_o may_v enter_v one_o into_o another_o his_o place_n but_o why_o this_o manner_n shall_v not_o be_v so_o good_a as_o the_o roman_n many_o example_n of_o the_o roman_a legion_n do_v show_v for_o that_o as_o often_o as_o the_o roman_n fight_v against_o the_o greek_n their_o phalanges_fw-la be_v overthrow_v and_o consume_v by_o the_o legion_n for_o the_o difference_n of_o their_o arm_n and_o the_o manner_n of_o relieve_v three_o time_n have_v a_o more_o force_n in_o it_o then_o the_o great_a number_n or_o the_o diligence_n of_o the_o phalanges_fw-la be_v therefore_o to_o frame_v a_o batailon_n after_o all_o these_o example_n i_o have_v think_v it_o good_a to_o imitate_v partly_o the_o fashion_n of_o the_o greek_n phalanges_fw-la and_o partly_o the_o roman_a legion_n and_o partly_o these_o that_o we_o do_v use_v at_o this_o instant_n and_o therefore_o i_o will_v that_o in_o every_o one_o of_o our_o legion_n there_o shall_v be_v 3600_o ordinary_a pike_n for_o the_o body_n of_o the_o batailon_n 420._o for_o the_o flank_n and_o 170._o extraordinary_a pike_n for_o the_o forlorn_a hope_n which_o be_v arm_n that_o the_o phalanges_fw-la do_v use_v beside_o i_o will_v have_v 600._o halberd_n 420._o harquebusier_n for_o the_o flank_n and_o 680._o for_o the_o forlorn_a hope_n all_o which_o be_v arm_n invent_v in_o our_o time_n i_o have_v divide_v the_o body_n of_o the_o batailon_n into_o 10._o band_n as_o the_o roman_n do_v they_o into_o 10._o cohorte_n and_o have_v appoint_v the_o harquebusier_n and_o the_o forlorn_a hope_n to_o begin_v the_o battle_n and_o for_o skirmish_n as_o the_o roman_n do_v their_o velite_n and_o have_v give_v they_o two_o captain_n and_o two_o ensign_n to_o the_o intent_n to_o have_v better_a service_n of_o they_o then_o if_o they_o have_v none_o and_o also_o for_o to_o employ_v they_o in_o the_o labour_n of_o the_o war_n as_o the_o other_o band_n and_o for_o that_o the_o arm_n be_v borrow_v of_o diverse_a nation_n the_o band_n must_v also_o be_v perticipant_n of_o the_o order_n of_o diverse_a nation_n and_o therefore_o i_o have_v ordain_v that_o every_o one_o of_o the_o ten_o band_n shall_v have_v 8_o rank_n of_o pike_n before_o the_o ensign_n and_o 8_o behind_o and_o 4_o rank_n of_o halbarde_n in_o the_o midst_n so_o that_o by_o that_o mean_v every_o band_n do_v make_v 20_o rank_n and_o every_o rank_n have_v 21._o man_n the_o pike_n do_v serve_v for_o to_o resist_v horseman_n to_o break_v into_o the_o footman_n and_o to_o withstand_v the_o first_o assault_n of_o their_o enemy_n which_o pike_n i_o will_v use_v only_o to_o defend_v myself_o and_o afterward_o use_v the_o target_n which_o the_o pikeman_n do_v carry_v at_o their_o back_n and_o halberd_n to_o vanquish_v my_o enemy_n and_o who_o so_o will_v consider_v of_o the_o force_n of_o this_o order_n shall_v find_v that_o everye_o sort_n of_o arm_n shall_v do_v his_o office_n thoughlye_o for_o the_o pike_n be_v profitable_a against_o the_o horseman_n and_o when_o the_o footman_n do_v meet_a batailon_n against_o batailon_n they_o serve_v to_o a_o good_a use_n before_o that_o the_o rank_n be_v throng_v together_o but_o after_o that_o they_o be_v once_o at_o the_o close_a the_o pike_n can_v do_v no_o more_o service_n wherefore_o the_o swisser_n to_o avoid_v this_o inconvenience_n after_o everye_o three_o rank_n of_o pike_n do_v place_n one_o rank_n of_o halbarde_n which_o they_o do_v to_o the_o intent_n to_o give_v their_o pikeman_n space_n and_o place_n to_o fight_v in_o a_o press_n but_o yet_o this_o be_v not_o enough_o but_o as_o for_o we_o we_o will_v have_v our_o pikeman_n both_o before_o the_o ensign_n and_o behind_o to_o carry_v target_n and_o there_o shall_v be_v halbarde_n in_o the_o midst_n by_o mean_n of_o this_o order_n to_o resist_v both_o horseman_n and_o footman_n and_o to_o break_v into_o a_o enemy_n for_o you_o know_v that_o pike_n may_v serve_v no_o turn_n after_o that_o the_o rank_n be_v preass_v together_o because_o that_o the_o soldier_n be_v then_o as_o it_o be_v one_o in_o another_o neck_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o pikeman_n have_v nothing_o but_o their_o pike_n and_o sword_n the_o pike_n be_v abandon_v they_o shall_v be_v naked_a for_o which_o cause_n i_o have_v give_v they_o target_n to_o cover_v themselves_o from_o blow_n and_o to_o fight_v in_o all_o place_n what_o press_v soever_o there_o be_v moreover_o the_o halberdier_n may_v also_o fight_v better_o in_o a_o press_n then_o the_o pikeman_n which_o halberdier_n be_v express_o appoint_v for_o this_o purpose_n and_o likewise_o they_o may_v follow_v the_o say_a target_n at_o the_o heel_n who_o be_v heavy_o lade_v to_o rescue_v they_o with_o their_o halberd_n and_o as_o for_o the_o target_n man_n i_o will_v have_v they_o but_o only_o to_o thrust_v at_o the_o face_n and_o leg_n or_o at_o any_o other_o part_n that_o be_v unarm_v but_o leave_v these_o small_a thing_n i_o will_v go_v range_v the_o ten_o band_n in_o one_o whole_a batailon_n how_o to_o

furthermore_o i_o have_v say_v that_o the_o roman_n have_v in_o four_o of_o their_o legion_n the_o number_n of_o 21000._o footman_n which_o be_v all_o the_o people_n that_o they_o common_o have_v in_o

against_o another_o great_a host_n of_o enemy_n to_o the_o intent_n to_o show_v after_o what_o manner_n i_o will_v have_v they_o to_o fight_v afterward_o i_o will_v give_v a_o reason_n for_o that_o

of_o all_o sort_n of_o people_n aswell_o footman_n as_o horseman_n &_o beside_o good_a store_n of_o ordnance_n and_o furthermore_o that_o the_o place_n wherein_o these_o 2._o army_n do_v attend_v to_o

divide_v it_o into_o three_o battle_n that_o be_v into_o auantgard_n battle_n &_o kiergard_n for_o this_o division_n serve_v for_o no_o other_o purpose_n but_o to_o march_v on_o the_o way_n &_o to_o

the_o hazard_n of_o the_o combat_n depend_v upon_o one_o of_o these_o three_o battle_n whosoever_o it_o be_v that_o shall_v fight_v first_o and_o according_a unto_o the_o fortune_n that_o that_o one_o

their_o other_o battle_n in_o the_o sight_n of_o their_o friend_n but_o to_o proceed_v in_o our_o business_n you_o have_v see_v before_o how_o our_o hargoletier_n and_o harquebusier_n a_o horseback_n

that_o i_o have_v cause_v it_o to_o be_v so_o handle_v to_o show_v wherein_o the_o pike_n of_o the_o flank_n may_v be_v employ_v who_o be_v not_o only_o appoint_v always_o to_o keep_v the_o side_n of_o the_o battailons_a but_o may_v serve_v for_o more_o turn_n than_o one_o likewise_o i_o have_v make_v the_o man_n of_o arm_n to_o fight_v after_o that_o manner_n that_o i_o will_v that_o they_o

be_v for_o that_o i_o do_v think_v it_o to_o be_v much_o better_a than_o to_o charge_v run_v aswell_o for_o to_o continue_v they_o in_o good_a order_n as_o to_o keep_v their_o horse_n in_o breath_n

of_o his_o enemy_n and_o at_o this_o time_n we_o do_v make_v no_o such_o account_n of_o the_o booty_n which_o we_o do_v get_v as_o they_o do_v then_o but_o all_o be_v abandon_v unto_o the_o soldier_n which_o be_v cause_n of_o two_o great_a disorder_n the_o one_o be_v that_o which_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o touch_v the_o impourish_a of_o a_o prince_n and_o the_o other_o be_v that_o the_o soldier_n do_v become_v the_o more_o covetous_a to_o get_v and_o less_o careful_a to_o keep_v the_o order_n of_o the_o war_n for_o many_o time_n it_o have_v be_v see_v that_o the_o covetousness_n of_o the_o pillage_n have_v overthrow_v the_o vanquisher_n as_o happen_v unto_o the_o frenchman_n at_o guyngate_n where_o the_o victory_n be_v whole_o we_o if_o the_o french_a archer_n have_v not_o give_v themselves_o unto_o pillage_n which_o they_o pay_v for_o dear_o for_o they_o lose_v all_o their_o life_n there_o the_o roman_n who_o without_o doubt_n have_v be_v the_o master_n of_o this_o exercise_n do_v provide_v wise_o for_o these_o two_o inconvenience_n for_o it_o be_v ordain_v among_o they_o that_o the_o booty_n that_o be_v get_v shall_v appertain_v unto_o the_o common_a use_n and_o that_o the_o consul_n shall_v distribute_v it_o as_o he_o think_v good_a in_o the_o name_n of_o the_o senate_n and_o people_n and_o in_o this_o case_n they_o have_v questor_n which_o be_v as_o we_o will_v

by_o this_o mean_v the_o common_a treasure_n augment_v merueilous_o and_o that_o be_v the_o occasion_n that_o a_o consul_n carry_v so_o much_o treasure_n at_o his_o triumph_n have_v gather_v it_o

be_v finish_v and_o this_o do_v they_o be_v thereunto_o move_v by_o two_o reason_n the_o one_o be_v to_o the_o intent_n that_o the_o soldier_n may_v have_v some_o profit_n
in_o a_o camp_n because_o of_o the_o charge_n that_o he_o have_v under_o his_o hand_n to_z weet_z the_o king_n his_o money_n which_o be_v the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o war_n without_o which_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o a_o army_n can_v be_v maintain_v long_o have_v to_o do_v with_o a_o strong_a and_o obstinate_a enemy_n the_o say_a threasorer_n be_v to_o employ_v the_o king_n money_n many_o way_n for_o the_o preferment_n of_o his_o service_n moreover_o he_o ought_v to_o receive_v the_o tribute_n and_o tax_n that_o the_o town_n and_o country_n conque_v do_v pay_v unto_o the_o king_n and_o that_o those_o that_o be_v under_o his_o obedience_n do_v contribute_v or_o if_o so_o be_v that_o there_o be_v any_o league_n and_o that_o the_o say_a league_n shall_v furnish_v money_n and_o no_o people_n he_o must_v also_o provide_v that_o the_o camp_n shall_v be_v furnish_v with_o store_n of_o victual_n and_o must_v have_v a_o care_n that_o every_o man_n as_o well_o the_o great_a as_o the_o

be_v well_o serve_v and_o that_o the_o soldier_n shall_v obey_v their_o chief_n and_o be_v man_n of_o good_a life_n for_o if_o money_n do_v want_n i_o do_v not_o know_v how_o a_o camp_n can_v be_v maintain_v nor_o the_o soldier_n keep_v from_o rob_v and_o commit_v of_o a_o thousand_o mischief_n for_o i_o see_v no_o mean_n how_o to_o correct_v they_o for_o any_o fault_n when_o as_o necessity_n do_v constrain_v they_o thereunto_o but_o i_o do_v not_o say_v but_o that_o they_o ought_v to_o have_v patience_n and_o to_o have_v a_o care_n not_o to_o offend_v although_o that_o money_n be_v long_o a_o come_n for_o i_o do_v know_v well_o enough_o that_o it_o can_v always_o be_v bring_v at_o the_o time_n appoint_v because_o of_o the_o let_n that_o they_o have_v oft_o time_n that_o shall_v bring_v it_o or_o that_o the_o threasurie_n be_v sometime_o so_o near_o empty_v that_o there_o must_v be_v a_o time_n to_o recover_v new_a and_o therefore_o the_o soldier_n ought_v to_o have_v patience_n until_o it_o be_v levy_v and_o do_v arrive_v but_o if_o the_o attend_v for_o it_o be_v too_o long_o there_o be_v nothing_o more_o injust_a then_o to_o have_v man_n to_o live_v by_o the_o wind_n or_o without_o money_n like_v unto_o gray_a friar_n but_o then_o there_o must_v be_v daily_o a_o certain_a quantity_n of_o victual_n distribute_v unto_o they_o and_o other_o thing_n necessary_a for_o their_o live_n and_o apparel_n to_o maintain_v they_o until_o that_o their_o pay_n do_v come_v or_o for_o to_o abandon_v they_o to_o their_o own_o discretion_n that_o be_v to_o say_v that_o they_o may_v take_v where_o they_o can_v find_v it_o which_o be_v a_o thing_n that_o ought_v never_o to_o be_v permit_v but_o in_o a_o extremity_n and_o when_o as_o all_o other_o mean_n do_v fail_v for_o that_o this_o liberty_n be_v cause_n that_o the_o soldier_n do_v fall_v into_o such_o insolency_n that_o it_o will_v be_v almost_o impossible_a to_o bring_v they_o afterward_o again_o into_o their_o

than_o the_o simple_a soldier_n if_o we_o will_v say_v that_o the_o speech_n of_o the_o chief_n do_v appease_v &_o prolong_v the_o soldier_n i_o do_v confess_v it_o to_o be_v true_a but_o it_o be_v
