the_o cause_n of_o the_o great_a stature_n and_o courage_n of_o the_o german_n to_o be_v their_o looseness_n and_o liberty_n which_o howbeit_o it_o be_v not_o the_o sole_a cause_n it_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o great_a help_n for_o we_o plain_o find_v by_o experience_n that_o those_o country_n which_o be_v most_o mountainous_a where_o be_v less_o discipline_n be_v find_v to_o produce_v man_n for_o

cause_n of_o the_o trouble_n of_o naples_n and_o in_o england_n before_o henry_n the_o eight_n time_n betwixt_o the_o welsh_a and_o english_a why_o discipline_n shall_v in_o this_o sort_n mollify_v and_o weaken_v the_o courage_n of_o man_n many_o cause_n may_v be_v give_v the_o first_o and_o great_a be_v religion_n than_o the_o which_o there_o be_v no_o great_a curb_n to_o the_o courage_n not_o mere_o of_o itself_o but_o by_o accident_n because_o death_n be_v the_o great_a hazard_n of_o a_o soldier_n religion_n give_v a_o more_o evident_a apprehension_n and_o sense_n of_o the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n and_o set_v before_o the_o eye_n of_o his_o understanding_n as_o it_o be_v the_o image_n of_o hell-paine_n and_o celestial_a joy_n weigh_v in_o a_o equal_a scale_n the_o danger_n of_o the_o one_o and_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o other_o whereas_o ignorant_a people_n want_v all_o sense_n of_o religion_n light_o esteem_v of_o either_o hold_v a_o temporal_a death_n the_o great_a danger_n whence_o grow_v the_o usual_a proverb_n among_o profane_a ruffian_n that_o conscience_n make_v coward_n but_o this_o as_o i_o say_v be_v mere_o accidental_a for_o as_o much_o as_o nothing_o spur_v on_o a_o true_a resolution_n more_o than_o a_o good_a conscience_n and_o a_o true_a touch_n of_o religion_n witness_v the_o holy_a martyr_n of_o the_o church_n of_o all_o age_n who_o valour_n and_o constancy_n have_v outgo_v all_o heathen_a precedent_n but_o because_o soldier_n for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v a_o most_o dissolute_a kind_n of_o people_n have_v either_o a_o false_a religion_n which_o can_v suggest_v no_o settle_a resolution_n or_o a_o ill_a conscience_n ground_v upon_o no_o assurance_n religion_n must_v needs_o beget_v in_o they_o a_o more_o fearful_a disposition_n another_o cause_n may_v be_v the_o severity_n of_o discipline_n which_o especial_o in_o the_o train_n up_o of_o youth_n be_v mix_v with_o a_o kind_n of_o slavery_n without_o which_o our_o young_a year_n be_v very_o untractable_a to_o taste_v the_o bitter_a root_n of_o knowledge_n this_o fear_n as_o it_o be_v stamp_v in_o our_o affection_n can_v but_o leave_v behind_o it_o a_o continual_a impression_n which_o can_v sudden_o be_v raze_v out_o such_o as_o we_o find_v in_o we_o of_o our_o master_n and_o teacher_n who_o friendship_n we_o rather_o embrace_v than_o familiarity_n a_o three_o reason_n why_o discipline_n will_v weaken_v and_o mollify_v a_o nation_n may_v be_v the_o delight_n which_o man_n reap_v in_o contemplative_a study_n and_o moral_a or_o politic_a duty_n whence_o follow_v a_o neglect_n of_o the_o other_o for_o people_n of_o knowledge_n must_v needs_o find_v a_o great_a felicity_n in_o gift_n of_o the_o mind_n which_o be_v usual_o second_v with_o a_o contempt_n of_o external_a and_o military_a affair_n the_o last_o cause_n may_v be_v the_o want_n of_o use_n and_o practice_v of_o military_a affair_n in_o most_o commonwealth_n for_o many_o state_n well_o establish_v continue_v a_o long_a time_n without_o war_n neither_o molest_v their_o neighbour_n nor_o dissent_v among_o themselves_o except_o very_o seldom_o and_o that_o by_o a_o small_a army_n without_o trouble_v the_o whole_a state_n whence_o the_o general_a practice_n be_v less_o know_v become_v more_o fearful_a notwithstanding_o all_o this_o it_o be_v brutish_a to_o imagine_v discipline_n any_o way_n unnecessary_a or_o hurtful_a either_o to_o a_o captain_n or_o statesman_n for_o as_o much_o as_o it_o more_o strengthen_v the_o wit_n than_o abate_v the_o courage_n of_o a_o nation_n neither_o be_v it_o proper_o say_v to_o break_v and_o weaken_v but_o rather_o to_o temper_v and_o regulate_v our_o spirit_n for_o it_o be_v not_o valour_n but_o rather_o rashness_n or_o fierceness_n which_o be_v not_o manage_v with_o policy_n and_o discretion_n and_o although_o it_o have_v sometime_o be_v attend_v with_o notable_a exploit_n as_o that_o of_o alexander_n the_o great_a of_o the_o goth_n the_o ancient_a gaul_n and_o many_o other_o yet_o shall_v we_o observe_v such_o conquest_n to_o be_v of_o small_a continuance_n for_o what_o they_o atcheive_v by_o strength_n they_o lose_v for_o want_v of_o policy_n so_o that_o it_o be_v well_o say_v by_o one_o that_o moderation_n be_v the_o mother_n of_o continuance_n to_o state_n and_o kingdom_n thus_o have_v we_o run_v over_o by_o god_n assistance_n the_o chief_a cause_n of_o diversity_n of_o disposition_n of_o nation_n wherein_o if_o any_o man_n will_v inform_v himself_o as_o he_o shall_v he_o must_v compare_v one_o circumstance_n with_o another_o and_o make_v his_o judgement_n not_o from_o a_o man_n but_o a_o nation_n and_o not_o censure_v any_o nation_n out_o of_o one_o observation_n for_o practice_v in_o art_n can_v always_o come_v home_o to_o speculation_n so_o experience_n in_o this_o kind_n will_v oftentimes_o cross_v the_o most_o general_a rule_n we_o can_v imagine_v it_o be_v enough_o to_o judge_v as_o we_o find_v and_o walk_v where_o the_o way_n be_v open_a if_o any_o man_n will_v desire_v more_o curiosity_n he_o may_v spend_v more_o labour_n to_o less_o purpose_n let_v every_o man_n by_o behold_v
