can_v conformable_a to_o great_a body_n as_o to_o regiment_n and_o consequent_o they_o to_o brigades_n therefore_o take_v notice_n that_o this_o rule_n ought_v ever_o to_o be_v observe_v in_o the_o draw_v up_o of_o regiment_n that_o the_o right_a flank_n as_o near_o as_o may_v be_v aught_o to_o be_v suitable_a with_o the_o left_a both_o in_o strength_n number_n and_o dignity_n and_o likewise_o to_o be_v so_o when_o they_o be_v draw_v forth_o upon_o a_o long_a march_n the_o front_n equal_a with_o the_o rear_n now_o suppose_v th●se_a two_o grand_a division_n stand_v even_o a_o breast_n we_o will_v begin_v to_o examine_v the_o first_o worth_n which_o be_v the_o colonel_n and_o the_o four_o worth_n which_o be_v the_o elder_a captain_n and_o place_v upon_o the_o right_n and_o leave_v of_o

captain_n in_o a_o regiment_n to_o lead_v the_o first_o body_n or_o stand_v of_o pike_n it_o must_v then_o consequent_o follow_v that_o the_o second_o place_n of_o honour_n must_v be_v to_o lead_v the_o second_o grand_a division_n of_o pike_n and_o therefore_o the_o five_o worth_n be_v bring_v into_o and_o place_v between_o the_o second_o and_o three_o that_o he_o may_v apt_o stand_v there_o to_o to_o lead_v the_o second_o body_n of_o pike_n wherein_o the_o lieutenant_n colonel_n the_o major_a and_o his_o own_o colour_n be_v place_v so_o that_o there_o remain_v no_o more_o but_o the_o
