a_o little_a youth_n or_o wench_n may_v use_v the_o same_o against_o any_o man_n with_o sword_n and_o poleaxe_n so_o that_o be_v the_o enemy_n number_n great_a or_o small_a it_o be_v impossible_a almost_o that_o any_o shall_v escape_v but_o by_o deliveer_v up_o horse_n and_o arm_n and_o then_o you_o need_v neither_o kill_v they_o nor_o take_v they_o but_o let_v they_o go_v back_o to_o help_v to_o eat_v up_o your_o enemy_n food_n and_o tell_v they_o if_o they_o will_v fetch_v such_o as_o be_v the_o great_a maintainer_n of_o their_o cause_n and_o deliver_v they_o up_o you_o then_o will_v entertain_v themselves_o and_o let_v they_o have_v food_n if_o they_o will_v work_v among_o you_o and_o live_v like_o honest_a man_n for_o we_o desire_v no_o man_n blood_n for_o you_o may_v be_v sure_a that_o they_o must_v needs_o come_v short_a of_o food_n for_o they_o have_v make_v and_o do_v make_v great_a waist_n and_o they_o do_v and_o must_v keep_v many_o that_o be_v go_v to_o they_o out_o of_o our_o country_n and_o all_o other_o country_n in_o the_o kingdom_n beside_o many_o that_o the_o queen_n have_v procure_v which_o will_v all_o help_v to_o eat_v fast_o than_o they_o know_v how_o to_o get_v if_o god_n will_v move_v you_o to_o take_v this_o course_n so_o also_o you_o shall_v sinde_v many_o irish_a in_o your_o compass_n which_o you_o may_v send_v to_o the_o enemy_n and_o send_v they_o word_n you_o can_v send_v they_o more_o if_o they_o have_v meat_n for_o they_o but_o our_o food_n must_v be_v for_o our_o friend_n if_o this_o course_n be_v take_v you_o shall_v not_o

all_o will_v take_v part_n speak_v and_o do_v for_o the_o parliament_n in_o their_o proceed_n although_o more_o for_o fear_v then_o love_n whereas_o now_o the_o food_n in_o parish_n not_o be_v

whereas_o this_o course_n be_v take_v that_o fear_n be_v go_v not_o only_o from_o that_o town_n but_o all_o about_o it_o so_o that_o with_o warning_n as_o aforesaid_a they_o will_v irresistible_o
