item_n that_o those_o which_o shall_v be_v choose_v shall_v be_v the_o most_o honest_a man_n and_o man_n of_o best_a life_n that_o be_v possible_a to_o be_v find_v in_o the_o king_n his_o country_n

in_o france_n and_o to_o conduct_v it_o from_o degree_n to_o degree_n unto_o that_o point_n it_o must_v be_v bring_v unto_o to_o make_v the_o soldier_n to_o be_v such_o as_o i_o have_v promise_v and_o the_o army_n to_o be_v invincible_a and_o incomparable_a the_o number_n of_o soldier_n that_o may_v be_v levy_v in_o france_n the_o 2._o chapter_n this_o kingdom_n be_v so_o environ_v on_o every_o side_n with_o diverse_a nation_n the_o love_v it_o but_o a_o little_a that_o to_o assure_v it_o against_o they_o it_o have_v need_n of_o a_o very_a great_a number_n of_o soldier_n and_o such_o a_o number_n as_o our_o legionary_n be_v but_o the_o charge_n that_o this_o multitude_n will_v cost_v will_v be_v insupportable_a and_o on_o the_o other_o part_n the_o pay_n of_o four_o francke_n and_o the_o exemption_n of_o another_o frank_a scot_n and_o lot_n yearly_a will_v not_o be_v sufficient_a to_o make_v they_o to_o be_v content_v and_o bind_v unto_o the_o duty_n that_o this_o business_n require_v to_o do_v service_n with_o they_o neither_o for_o fair_a nor_o foul_a so_o that_o to_o make_v such_o a_o levy_n will_v cost_v much_o and_o yet_o our_o force_n shall_v be_v nothing_o thereby_o augment_v for_o that_o they_o will_v serve_v against_o their_o will_n see_v the_o payment_n to_o be_v so_o little_a wherefore_o it_o be_v better_a to_o take_v a_o less_o number_n of_o people_n and_o to_o give_v they_o reasonable_a war_n then_o to_o take_v a_o great_a number_n and_o to_o have_v they_o the_o better_a cheap_a and_o that_o the_o say_a people_n may_v be_v of_o ability_n to_o apparel_n themselves_o honest_o twice_o a_o year_n and_o defray_v their_o own_o charge_n in_o go_v and_o come_v from_o the_o muster_n they_o shall_v make_v without_o eat_v the_o people_n as_o the_o soldier_n do_v at_o this_o present_a and_o moreover_o if_o they_o be_v call_v out_o to_o go_v to_o the_o war_n that_o from_o the_o day_n that_o they_o put_v themselves_o in_o a_o readiness_n to_o march_v their_o pay_n shall_v be_v so_o augment_v that_o it_o may_v maintain_v they_o in_o apparel_n and_o victual_v according_a unto_o their_o quality_n and_o the_o chief_n member_n and_o

take_v up_o so_o many_o the_o less_o i_o mean_v not_o that_o this_o number_n shall_v be_v so_o great_o diminish_v but_o that_o be_v assemble_v it_o may_v make_v the_o just_a form_n of_o a_o host_n as_o some_o five_o and_o twenty_o thousand_o footman_n or_o there_o about_o for_o otherwise_o it_o will_v be_v a_o levy_v of_o man_n for_o to_o spend_v money_n but_o not_o to_o do_v service_n special_o for_o that_o a_o small_a number_n in_o short_a time_n will_v come_v to_o nothing_o because_o of_o the_o infinite_a mishap_n that_o ofttimes_o happen_v unto_o man_n so_o that_o there_o must_v be_v ever_o and_o anon_o new_a man_n inroul_v to_o fill_v the_o band_n that_o shall_v lack_v and_o for_o that_o the_o say_a number_n can_v not_o be_v range_v and_o exercise_v as_o they_o ought_v to_o be_v if_o they_o be_v levy_v in_o place_n far_o distant_a one_o from_o another_o because_o they_o can_v not_o be_v assemble_v when_o they_o shall_v be_v train_v and_o exercise_v without_o great_a

be_v almost_o possess_v of_o all_o france_n so_o that_o the_o king_n of_o france_n know_v not_o where_o to_o set_v a_o foot_n for_o they_o yet_o notwithstanding_o they_o be_v always_o obey_v none_o

that_o if_o a_o enemy_n do_v assault_v he_o in_o his_o country_n he_o may_v then_o be_v in_o hazard_n to_o be_v ill_o follow_v and_o obey_v of_o his_o people_n but_o in_o do_v the_o contrary_a there_o be_v no_o doubt_n to_o be_v have_v in_o this_o matter_n one_o thing_n there_o be_v for_o they_o that_o do_v assail_v &_o which_o be_v a_o great_a point_n that_o be_v that_o soldier_n who_o find_v

the_o reckon_n for_o they_o whereas_o those_o that_o be_v assail_v do_v lose_v their_o good_n the_o honest_a reputation_n of_o their_o wife_n and_o daughter_n and_o their_o life_n and_o if_o so_o be_v that_o they_o do_v escape_v kill_v yet_o do_v they_o look_v for_o a_o perpetual_a servitude_n with_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o other_o mischief_n so_o that_o the_o advantage_n on_o both_o side_n

upon_o this_o conclusion_n that_o be_v that_o every_o prince_n ought_v to_o have_v a_o regard_n before_o he_o enter_v into_o the_o country_n of_o another_o prince_n his_o neighbour_n that_o be_v as_o

that_o be_v assail_v may_v attend_v the_o come_n of_o his_o enemy_n into_o his_o country_n with_o a_o great_a advantage_n for_o that_o he_o may_v famish_v they_o and_o take_v from_o they_o the_o use_n of_o all_o thing_n appertain_v unto_o a_o camp_n without_o the_o danger_n of_o have_v any_o lack_n of_o victual_n on_o his_o side_n moreover_o he_o may_v withstand_v the_o enterprise_n of_o his_o enemy_n and_o impeach_v they_o to_o be_v execute_v if_o the_o assail_v have_v better_a notice_n of_o the_o country_n and_o passage_n than_o the_o assailant_n have_v to_o be_v brief_a he_o may_v make_v great_a store_n of_o people_n in_o short_a time_n for_o there_o be_v no_o body_n but_o will_v be_v ready_a at_o a_o need_n to_o enter_v into_o battle_n to_o defend_v his_o own_o and_o of_o these_o

we_o suppose_v that_o a_o prince_n that_o be_v assail_v in_o his_o own_o country_n be_v overthrow_v every_o man_n know_v well_o that_o he_o may_v recover_v it_o again_o in_o short_a space_n because_o that_o the_o vanquish_v can_v be_v so_o utter_o overthrow_v but_o that_o there_o will_v a_o great_a many_o save_v themselves_o because_o of_o the_o retreat_n they_o have_v so_o never_o they_o

what_o condition_n of_o peace_n be_v use_v to_o be_v give_v unto_o those_o that_o be_v in_o hand_n if_o they_o make_v peace_n and_o what_o ransom_n they_o must_v pay_v for_o their_o delivery_n before_o that_o they_o be_v let_v go_v beside_o all_o this_o danger_n into_o what_o inconvenience_n will_v the_o assailant_n his_o country_n fall_v into_o if_o he_o be_v slay_v will_v it_o be_v possible_a that_o a_o battle_n may_v be_v lose_v upon_o another_o man_n his_o ground_n without_o the_o slaughter_n of_o all_o the_o best_a captain_n and_o soldier_n or_o that_o his_o country_n be_v

of_o this_o trouble_n all_o these_o thing_n consider_v i_o may_v conclude_v that_o he_o be_v in_o great_a hazard_n that_o do_v assail_v his_o neighbour_n than_o he_o that_o do_v stay_v

be_v reproach_v ever_o after_o and_o upon_o this_o deliberation_n they_o fight_v so_o well_o that_o the_o frenchman_n who_o be_v ten_o to_o one_o be_v foul_o overthrow_v and_o king_n john_n take_v

to_o amend_v and_o open_v it_o this_o matter_n require_v that_o we_o shall_v here_o speak_v of_o another_o great_a point_n that_o be_v how_o a_o host_n may_v retire_v from_o another_o when_o as_o it_o feel_v itself_o too_o weak_a to_o fight_v with_o a_o enemy_n or_o to_o abide_v his_o come_n for_o all_o good_a captain_n affirm_v that_o in_o all_o the_o action_n of_o the_o war_n there_o be_v none_o more_o dangerous_a for_o that_o when_o a_o general_n do_v retire_v without_o combat_n be_v near_o unto_o his_o enemy_n he_o do_v take_v away_o the_o value_n of_o his_o soldier_n and_o give_v it_o

all_o thing_n the_o soldier_n may_v not_o know_v that_o their_o general_n do_v retire_v to_o avoid_v the_o combat_n but_o they_o must_v be_v make_v to_o believe_v that_o the_o retreat_n be_v make_v to_o draw_v their_o enemy_n into_o some_o other_o more_o commodious_a place_n to_o have_v a_o more_o advantage_n of_o they_o or_o that_o it_o be_v do_v to_o make_v their_o enemy_n to_o follow_v they_o
