if_o any_o such_o foreign_a enemy_n objection_n shall_v pretend_v to_o land_n here_o in_o england_n as_o of_o late_a the_o spaniard_n will_v have_v do_v as_o it_o be_v think_v the_o which_o by_o god_n

to_o assist_v our_o seaman_n with_o such_o gentleman_n as_o will_v accompany_v the_o same_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n but_o it_o will_v suffice_v to_o be_v such_o a_o bar_n against_o those_o enemy_n that_o they_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o touch_v our_o spaniard_n shore_n in_o england_n &_o chief_o if_o it_o shall_v so_o come_v to_o pass_v as_o sir_n john_n smith_n do_v allege_v that_o the_o bank_n be_v high_a above_o the_o sea_n it_o be_v so_o much_o the_o worse_a for_o the_o enemy_n to_o assail_v the_o same_o five_o to_o one_o as_o for_o example_n the_o bank_n be_v high_a as_o aforesaid_a y_z e_z enemy_n must_v either_o have_v ladder_n to_o climb_v forth_o of_o their_o totter_a boat_n or_o else_o some_o of_o their_o own_o friend_n or_o fellow_n to_o draw_v they_o up_o with_o pike_n the_o which_o i_o will_v think_v by_o all_o reason_n that_o our_o musketeer_n harquebuzier_n and_o laborer_n with_o the_o black_a bill_n shall_v right_v well_o serve_v their_o turn_n in_o that_o behalf_n to_o their_o destruction_n and_o repulse_n for_o whereas_o the_o enemy_n must_v of_o necessity_n stand_v upright_o in_o their_o vessel_n of_o oar_n at_o the_o full_a show_n to_o their_o great_a annoyance_n and_o also_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o give_v their_o volley_n of_o shot_n with_o any_o such_o certainty_n as_o shall_v our_o musketeer_n who_o shall_v lie_v close_o upon_o the_o shore_n with_o a_o small_a trench_n before_o they_o and_o shall_v need_v to_o show_v nothing_o but_o their_o head_n and_o weapon_n above_o the_o same_o which_o trench_n may_v be_v make_v in_o half_a a_o hour_n with_o the_o pioner_n aforesaid_a and_o again_o if_o the_o haven_n be_v full_a that_o the_o bank_n and_o water_n be_v in_o manner_n equal_a then_o may_v our_o field_n piece_n with_o musketeer_n cleanse_v the_o haven_n at_o the_o very_a first_o volley_n be_v discreet_o deliver_v and_o in_o due_a time_n that_o be_v first_o the_o field_n piece_n at_o 12._o score_n yard_n and_o the_o musket_n at_o eight_o score_n the_o harquebuzier_n at_o four_o score_n and_o so_o by_o these_o do_n every_o piece_n both_o great_a and_o small_a shall_v have_v time_n to_o recharge_v before_o the_o enemy_n can_v touch_v the_o shore_n and_o to_o be_v ready_a again_o to_o give_v they_o their_o welcome_n to_o their_o face_n but_o i_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o the_o enemy_n will_v abide_v the_o second_o welcome_n be_v thus_o use_v and_o beside_o all_o this_o i_o doubt_v nothing_o less_o but_o that_o her_o majesty_n army_n by_o sea_n will_v be_v as_o ready_a to_o attend_v upon_o

be_v still_o beat_v at_o the_o buttock_n of_o the_o enemy_n with_o the_o like_a advantage_n as_o before_o they_o do_v so_o that_o our_o seaman_n keep_v they_o occupy_v in_o their_o rearguard_n i_o
