TO ALL GENTLEMEN PRACTITIONERS AND Lovers of Armes in all the Cities and Corporations of the Kingdome GENTLEMEN THat which I here present you with is a Military Argument the fitter for Military men therefore whose Exercise and Delight is in the fayre practise of peaceable Armes This is my best hope that it may be favourably accepted for that my Theme and my Patrones are so well suited So should every thing be about a Souldier I doe it not upon any vaine thoughts or presumption to teach you new wayes a many of you and your Leaders especially are so curious I know so skilfull at least in the

wish with all my heart that all your shoulders that deserve it were submitted Valour courage I assure my self you would all shew should but your Country require your service and did she so you should be among the first the best men that her safetie must rely vpon That the Kingdome hath by this means the more that are enabled to defend it is partly owing vnto your forwardnesse and that there is a
