that_o they_o shall_v be_v out_o of_o order_n they_o will_v quick_o bring_v themselves_o in_o again_o for_o the_o ensign_n know_v their_o accustom_a place_n in_o the_o battalion_n &_o the_o corporal_n

shall_v go_v before_o and_o who_o shall_v follow_v wherefore_o the_o soldier_n have_v nothing_o to_o do_v but_o to_o follow_v their_o chief_n will_v range_v themselves_o ready_o every_o one_o in_o
