true_a though_o seem_v incredible_a this_o day_n also_o i_o observe_v a_o ill_a custom_n too_o common_a to_o all_o general_n that_o they_o make_v most_o use_n in_o time_n of_o desperate_a service_n of_o those_o that_o do_v best_o serve_v they_o and_o when_o once_o they_o have_v experience_n of_o their_o valour_n they_o never_o omit_v to_o employ_v they_o on_o the_o most_o dangerous_a exploit_n and_o for_o reward_n they_o only_o do_v commend_v their_o valour_n when_o other_o be_v scarce_o remember_v at_o all_o here_o also_o i_o do_v see_v that_o on_o hot_a service_n nothing_o can_v be_v

best_a proof_n a_o soldier_n can_v infer_v of_o his_o vali●●t_a courage_n be_v his_o wound_n get_v with_o credit_n not_o run_v away_o and_o the_o best_a exhortation_n a_o leader_n can_v give_v

that_o the_o dutch_a be_v not_o the_o best_a soldier_n in_o extremity_n of_o danger_n though_o i_o confess_v for_o the_o discharge_n of_o all_o duty_n otherwise_o very_o obedient_a till_o it_o come_v to_o extremity_n and_o then_o common_o they_o make_v a_o cloak_n of_o discontentment_n and_o call_v for_o money_n as_o they_o do_v this_o day_n likewise_o i_o can_v say_v but_o horseman_n be_v useful_a many_o time_n as_o they_o be_v here_o yet_o in_o my_o opinion_n in_o their_o service_n they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v parallel_v to_o foot_n for_o at_o the_o in-taking_a of_o town_n and_o in_o hilly_a and_o mountainous_a country_n that_o be_v straight_o by_o nature_n they_o be_v not_o useful_a neither_o can_v they_o do_v but_o little_a service_n yet_o for_o their_o great_a charge_n they_o be_v much_o hard_a to_o be_v entertain_v therefore_o my_o choice_n shall_v be_v ever_o as_o most_o credible_a to_o command_v on_o foot_n and_o if_o i_o be_v worthy_a to_o advise_v a_o king_n or_o a_o

as_o his_o charge_n shall_v be_v less_o his_o profit_n shall_v be_v the_o more_o his_o army_n the_o strong_a his_o country_n less_o spoil_v his_o contribution_n to_o maintain_v his_o army_n the_o better_a pay_v his_o treasure_n rich_a his_o victory_n more_o frequent_a and_o more_o durable_a his_o conquest_n the_o better_o maintain_v this_o i_o dare_v presume_v to_o affirm_v to_o be_v all_o true_a out_o of_o my_o little_a experience_n and_o which_o be_v more_o all_o the_o time_n i_o have_v serve_v where_o i_o have_v hear_v one_o fault_n impute_v to_o a_o body_n of_o foot_n i_o can_v

be_v too_o common_a among_o many_o of_o their_o leader_n though_o i_o have_v know_v some_o honest_a man_n among_o they_o free_a from_o this_o imputation_n and_o for_o a_o king_n or_o prince_n that_o must_v defend_v his_o country_n by_o sea_n as_o our_o noble_a mr_n the_o king_n of_o dennarke_n be_v i_o will_v advise_v he_o as_o unprofitable_a for_o his_o service_n and_o country_n not_o to_o encertaine_a stranger_n in_o this_o kind_n so_o be_v their_o charge_n will_v far_o surmount_v the_o benefit_n that_o can_v redound_v by_o their_o service_n yet_o i_o can_v say_v but_o the_o

be_v most_o respect_v and_o come_v first_o off_o as_o we_o do_v at_o this_o time_n and_o it_o be_v ever_o better_a to_o fight_v well_o and_o to_o retire_v timely_a then_o for_o a_o man_n to_o suffer_v himself_o to_o be_v take_v prisoner_n as_o many_o be_v that_o morning_n after_o our_o retreat_n and_o in_o occasion_n i_o rather_o choose_v to_o die_v honourable_o then_o to_o live_v and_o to_o be_v

be_v strip_v naked_a by_o a_o villain_n and_o then_o if_o i_o lack_v money_n about_o i_o to_o be_v cut_v and_o carve_v and_o at_o last_o poor_o put_v to_o death_n be_v naked_a without_o arm_n to_o defend_v myself_o my_o advice_n then_o be_v to_o he_o that_o can_v resolve_v to_o fight_v well_o that_o he_o resolve_v according_a to_o his_o station_n and_o charge_n to_o be_v well_o furnish_v of_o money_n not_o only_o about_o he_o but_o also_o to_o have_v money_n to_o the_o best_a in_o a_o sure_a place_n and_o in_o sure_a hand_n to_o maintain_v he_o be_v prisoner_n and_o to_o pay_v his_o ransom_n or_o otherwise_o let_v he_o resolve_v to_o remain_v in_o perpetual_a bondage_n except_o some_o noble_a friend_n or_o other_o have_v compassion_n on_o he_o likewise_o i_o will_v advise_v all_o worthy_a soldier_n and_o officer_n go_v on_o service_n if_o they_o can_v never_o to_o want_v some_o money_n about_o they_o that_o if_o they_o chance_v to_o come_v as_o prisoner_n in_o undiscreete_a hand_n they_o may_v cast_v a_o bone_n in_o the_o dog_n tooth_n to_o curry_v favour_n of_o the_o cruel_a cur_n i_o do_v also_o observe_v here_o that_o continency_n be_v a_o virtue_n very_o necessary_a for_o a_o soldier_n for_o abstain_v from_o many_o inordinate_a appetite_n that_o follow_v his_o profession_n that_o he_o may_v the_o better_o suffer_v hunger_n cold_a thirst_n nakedness_n travel_n
