colour_n fly_v upon_o the_o head_n of_o they_o and_o upon_o the_o draw_v up_o of_o the_o company_n there_o be_v the_o most_o proper_a place_n for_o the_o captain_n to_o be_v either_o upon_o a_o

stand_v undaunted_o to_o undergo_v all_o the_o cruel_a shot_n of_o the_o cannon_n from_o the_o contrary_a part_n for_o to_o preserve_v their_o colour_n who_o be_v likewise_o a_o place_n of_o

and_o in_o these_o our_o late_a unhappy_a war_n in_o england_n to_o trail_v pike_n with_o several_a commander_n who_o they_o shall_v think_v fit_a and_o last_o to_o conclude_v all_o that_o the_o pike_n be_v the_o more_o honourable_a arm_n it_o be_v so_o in_o respect_n of_o its_o antiquity_n for_o there_o have_v be_v the_o use_n of_o the_o pike_n and_o spear_n many_o hundred_o year_n before_o there_o be_v any_o knowledge_n of_o the_o musket_n as_o in_o many_o history_n you_o shall_v find_v and_o so_o for_o present_v i_o will_v conclude_v this_o discourse_n of_o the_o pike_n desire_v the_o

for_o that_o can_v be_v i_o shall_v rather_o advise_v all_o captain_n that_o have_v occasion_n to_o raise_v their_o company_n to_o have_v two_o three_o of_o musketeer_n and_o but_o one_o of_o pike_n that_o be_v to_o say_v if_o they_o shall_v have_v 18_o file_n to_o cause_v twelve_o of_o they_o to_o carry_v musket_n and_o the_o other_o six_o file_n pike_n and_o in_o my_o judgement_n they_o shall_v perform_v the_o better_a service_n unto_o any_o nation_n where_o they_o shall_v be_v employ_v and_o i_o shall_v far_o desire_v the_o soldier_n especial_o those_o that_o be_v of_o low_a stature_n to_o handle_v and_o take_v delight_n in_o the_o use_n of_o the_o musket_n for_o it_o be_v a_o exceed_o great_a honour_n to_o he_o so_o to_o handle_v his_o musket_n as_o that_o he_o do_v it_o with_o ease_n and_o in_o a_o comely_a manner_n and_o he_o that_o shall_v become_v expert_a therein_o i_o have_v often_o observe_v this_o commendation_n to_o follow_v he_o by_o the_o report_n of_o other_o such_o a_o one_o be_v a_o good_a musketty_a and_o a_o able_a soldier_n conclude_v thereby_o he_o that_o will_v take_v the_o pain_n to_o be_v a_o good_a musketty_a certain_o can_v be_v idle_a but_o have_v gain_v something_o more_o to_o make_v he_o capable_a of_o such_o praise_n to_o conclude_v i_o shall_v desire_v the_o gentleman_n of_o the_o pike_n and_o the_o gentleman_n of_o the_o musketeer_n to_o go_v hand_n in_o hand_n in_o love_n like_o dear_a brother_n and_o neither_o of_o they_o to_o envy_v each_o other_o and_o in_o so_o do_v god_n will_v give_v a_o blessing_n to_o all_o their_o undertake_n but_o now_o fear_v i_o have_v dwell_v too_o long_o upon_o this_o discourse_n of_o the_o arm_n i_o shall_v next_o proceed_v to_o set_v down_o first_o the_o posture_n of_o the_o pike_n than_o the_o

private_a meeting_n but_o i_o conceive_v it_o to_o be_v of_o little_a use_n to_o receive_v a_o desperate_a charge_n of_o the_o horse_n for_o by_o these_o charge_v the_o soldier_n be_v in_o so_o lame_a and_o weak_a a_o posture_n that_o the_o horse_n can_v choose_v if_o they_o come_v on_o with_o a_o full_a career_n but_o bear_v the_o pike_n and_o pike-man_n down_o to_o the_o ground_n therefore_o in_o my_o opinion_n the_o best_a way_n of_o oppose_v the_o horse_n charge_n be_v that_o which_o we_o learn_v of_o our_o ever_o honour_a captain_n major_a henry_n tillier_n in_o the_o military_a garden_n

pike_n port_v and_o after_o close_v their_o rank_n forward_o so_o close_o that_o they_o lock_v themselves_o one_o within_o another_o and_o then_o charge_v on_o which_o in_o my_o judgement_n be_v so_o secure_a a_o way_n from_o rout_v that_o it_o be_v impossible_a for_o any_o body_n of_o horse_n to_o enter_v therein_o and_o far_o to_o my_o best_a remembrance_n i_o never_o can_v meet_v with_o any_o soldier_n that_o have_v be_v abroad_o upon_o any_o service_n that_o ever_o see_v any_o charge_v of_o the_o pike_n at_o the_o foot_n therefore_o i_o will_v further_o proceed_v from_o order_n advance_v
