Souldieres of the whiche number 1050. are pikes and 1732. musketes to reduce this number into a Squadron square of grounde whiche the Spanniarde caulle Quadro de terreno firste take the propounded number of pikes whiche is 1050. and multiply it by 3. the producte wherof will by 3150. this producte divide by 7. and the number in the quotient will be 450. oute of this quotiente take the square roote whiche youe shall finde to be 21. and 9. remayninge and say that 21. is the flanke of the propounded number of pikes Nowe to finde the fronte of the battell take the full number of pikes whiche is 1050. whiche yove shall divide by 21. the flanke and the quotient will be 50. and remainethe nothinge and say that 50. is the fronte of the battell of pikes and 21 the flanke Nowe for the division of youre shott suppose that yove woulde have the lininge shott not to contayne more then 4. in ranke and that yove woulde have the battell of pikes to be proportionally lined every way withe shot To wourke the whiche take 21. the flanke of the battell of pikes and multiply it by 4. the producte wherof will by 84. and say that the firste division of shott is 84. muskete or 21. rankes of 4. musketes in eache ranke whiche is the linenge shott of the righte flanke of the battell of pikes and the seconde division of shott for the linenge of the leifte flanke shall containe juste so many more nowe to finde oute the nūber of shott that shall be in proportion to guarnish the full fronte of the battell of pikes and of the two linenges ad to 50. the fronte of the propounded number of pikes 8 the number of shott of the two linges whiche two aditiones will make 58. and say that 58 rankes of 4. musketes in eache ranke shall be the guarnison or linenge shott of the fronte of the battell of pikes and of the 2 linenges and juste so many more for the guarnison of the rerewarde of the battell of pikes meaninge as before declared 58. rankes of 4. musketes in eache ranke so the two flankes fronte and rerewarde of the battell of pikes is proportionally lined every way withe 640. musketes and restethe 1092. musketes whiche i divide into 22. troupes or maniples ordered and divided in the fronte rergarde and 4. angles of the battell of pikes to skirmishe eyther in single or double fiele as tyme occasion and situation shall require and permitt all whiche divisiones youe may see by the figure folowinge for the divisiones of shot let none be ingnorante but that there are many considerationes and curiosities to be had as time and occasion shall require and especially if the enemy be superior on horse Hire folowethe who the full number of pikes and shott is divided into 31. divisiones and who oute of they re marche they fall into battell THe firste division of shott that lines the righte flanke of the battell of pikes is 21. rankes of 4. musketes in eache ranke 84 musk The seconde division of shott for the linenge shott of the leifte flanke of the battell of pikes iuste so many more 21. rankes of 4 muskets 84 musk The thirde division of shot that guarnisheth the full fronte of the battell and 2. lininges is 58. rākes of 4. musketes in eache ranke 232 musk The fourthe divisiō of shott that dothe guarnishe the rerewarde of the battell of pikes and 2. lininges is 58. rankes of 4. musketes in eache ranke 232 musk 22. maniples of 50. musketes in eache devided on the fronte rergarde and 4. angles of the battell makethe 1100 mus  1732 mus Advertisinge that of one of the
troupes of musketes on the angles of the battell are to by taken 8. musketes which wantes to guarnish the culoures be reason no musketes did remaine in theire laste division also be reason no pikes did reste in the division of the pikes y cut 21. pikes of the flanke to guarnishe the culoures so the fronte of the battel of pikes shall by but 49. pikes And by reason the divisiones are before shut upp thies 8 musketes difereth in the rekoninge so that when aconv eniente number of pikes and shott doe not remaine oute of the divisiones suficiente to guarnish the culoures the above observation mu ste be kepte as ordered in the Table of the battell so to confronte the divisiones with the propounded number yove are to by informed by the table for bienge infallible A Battell of 2025. Souldieres divided into five battelles square of grounde of the whiche number 945. are pikes and 1080 musketes whiche are equally divided into five batteles and proportionally lined withe the propounded number of shott whiche is 1080. musketes as the divisiones and figure folowinge sheowethe To wourke the whiche firste take the propounded number of pikes whiche is 945 and divide it into five partes or by five and the number in the quotiente will by 189. whiche is the iuste number of pikes youre division yealdethe for eache battell of the five nowe to finde oute the fronte and flanke of eache battell take 189. pikes whiche youre division alowethe for eache battell of pikes and multiply the same by 3. the producte wherof will by 567. this producte divide by 7. and the number in the quotient will by 81. oute of this 81. the quotiente take the square roote whiche will by 9. and say that 9. is the flanke of eache one of the five batteles of pikes nowe to finde the fronte take the propounded number of pikes whiche youre division did alowe to eache battell of pikes whiche was 189. this 189 pikes divide by 9 the flanke the quotiente wherof will by 21. and nothinge remayninge and say that 21. pikes is the fronte and 9. the flanke of eache battell of pikes before spoken of and when yove will have them fall into squadron lett them marche in 3. maniples of 9. rankes of 7. pikes in eache ranke withe the coulors in the center of the midel maniple and so shall they fall withe grace and brevity into battell and withoute any crosinge or confushion To guarnishe the coulors yove may cutt nine pikes of the flanke of eache battell and so shall the fronte conteine but 20. pikes nowe for the division of the propounded number of shott whiche was 1080. musketes supose that yove woulde have eache battell of pikes to be proportionally lined alowinge 3. musketes under the shelter or defence of the pike firste say that the firste division of shott that shall girdel the right
