order_n last_o the_o body_n of_o your_o musketeer_n exercise_v perfect_o after_o this_o manner_n for_o the_o better_a bring_v of_o they_o in_o exercise_n and_o breath_n that_o in_o case_n any_o

thereto_o as_o be_v command_v their_o inferior_a officer_n and_o leader_n to_o teach_v they_o before_o they_o be_v exercise_v therefore_o before_o you_o come_v to_o the_o particular_a form_n of_o
