after_o the_o win_n of_o a_o battle_n or_o after_o the_o take_n of_o a_o town_n by_o force_n for_o what_o can_v be_v more_o disagree_v from_o man_n his_o nature_n then_o after_o the_o tread_v of_o a_o

must_v make_v a_o great_a discourse_n to_o wit_n of_o the_o justice_n that_o ought_v to_o reign_v and_o to_o be_v exercise_v in_o a_o camp_n i_o mean_v the_o law_n that_o man_n of_o war_n ought_v to_o

the_o law_n of_o the_o war_n with_o the_o chief_a law_n and_o the_o manner_n of_o proceed_v in_o judgement_n against_o a_o offender_n the_o 3._o chapter_n so_o far_o have_v be_v proceed_v in_o this_o matter_n in_o the_o chapter_n before_o go_v that_o the_o four_o legion_n which_o i_o have_v take_v upon_o i_o to_o conduct_v have_v whole_o vanquish_v their_o enemy_n and_o by_o consequence_n they_o do_v continue_v master_n of_o town_n and_o country_n wherefore_o they_o now_o do_v want_v nothing_o else_o but_o to_o know_v how_o to_o keep_v that_o they_o have_v win_v which_o be_v no_o small_a thing_n for_o be_v well_o understand_v there_o be_v more_o difficulty_n to_o keep_v thing_n conquer_v then_o to_o get_v they_o and_o therefore_o i_o do_v say_v that_o although_o the_o general_n have_v beat_v his_o enemy_n in_o the_o field_n and_o have_v all_o the_o town_n and_o strong_a place_n of_o the_o country_n in_o his_o possession_n yet_o there_o be_v nothing_o do_v except_o he_o do_v seek_v to_o keep_v sure_o those_o thing_n that_o he_o have_v conquer_v special_o the_o town_n take_v by_o force_n of_o arm_n who_o in_o my_o judgement_n will_v always_o have_v a_o eye_n upon_o those_o that_o have_v endomage_v they_o and_o a_o desire_n to_o be_v revenge_n of_o outrage_n that_o have_v be_v do_v unto_o they_o how_o long_o so_o ever_o that_o they_o do_v tarry_v and_o therefore_o it_o be_v impossible_a to_o keep_v so_o good_a a_o watch_n ordinary_o have_v to_o do_v with_o a_o people_n so_o desirous_a to_o revenge_v but_o that_o in_o time_n the_o watch_n may_v be_v surprise_v to_o withstand_v this_o danger_n my_o opinion_n be_v that_o after_o the_o take_n of_o a_o town_n by_o a_o assault_n which_o can_v be_v do_v without_o great_a mischief_n that_o the_o inhabitant_n shall_v avoid_v the_o town_n whole_o and_o go_v seek_v some_o other_o place_n to_o inhabit_v in_o far_o off_o and_o who_o so_o will_v separate_v they_o send_v part_n one_o way_n and_o part_v another_o shall_v do_v wise_o and_o the_o first_o inhabitant_n be_v void_v the_o town_n shall_v be_v replenish_v with_o frenchmen_n assign_v unto_o they_o their_o house_n and_o possession_n by_o this_o mean_v the_o king_n shall_v be_v assure_v of_o the_o town_n beside_o if_o he_o will_v place_v part_n of_o his_o soldier_n in_o it_o he_o may_v rich_o reward_v they_o with_o the_o good_n and_o land_n of_o his_o enemy_n one_o the_o other_o part_v the_o town_n will_v not_o be_v so_o apt_a to_o rebel_v and_o ready_o to_o stand_v in_o arm_n against_o we_o as_o they_o be_v fear_v to_o be_v deal_v withal_o as_o be_v aforesaid_a whereas_o they_o do_v now_o make_v no_o difficulty_n see_v that_o rebel_n and_o recusant_n although_o that_o they_o be_v conquer_v be_v not_o constrain_v to_o change_v place_n nor_o habitation_n when_o as_o the_o roman_n in_o time_n past_a do_v take_v any_o town_n by_o force_n they_o use_v costomarilye_o to_o take_v out_o all_o the_o old_a inhabitant_n and_o to_o replenish_v it_o with_o a_o certain_a number_n of_o other_o citizen_n and_o sometime_o with_o one_o of_o their_o legion_n which_o town_n be_v so_o people_v be_v call_v a_o roman_a colony_n and_o serve_v the_o city_n of_o rome_n for_o a_o most_o strong_a bulwark_n and_o faithful_a garrison_n against_o their_o enemy_n in_o which_o do_v they_o do_v assure_v their_o estate_n more_o and_o more_o and_o enlarge_v

near_o we_o read_v concern_v this_o matter_n that_o the_o child_n of_o israel_n use_v their_o conquest_n much_o more_o rigoruslie_o for_o in_o all_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n they_o never_o do_v

partly_o to_o assure_v their_o own_o state_n the_o better_a &_o not_o to_o stand_v always_o in_o doubt_n as_o they_o shall_v have_v do_v if_o they_o have_v suffer_v their_o enemy_n to_o have_v live_v

the_o lord_n constable_n although_o the_o king_n do_v give_v he_o no_o wage_n for_o the_o time_n because_o that_o they_o may_v tarry_v while_o their_o turn_n do_v come_v about_o or_o be_v employ_v if_o we_o have_v need_v to_o defend_v ourselves_o for_o that_o they_o will_v be_v ready_a to_o be_v send_v for_o and_o levy_v then_o if_o upon_o every_o occasion_n there_o shall_v be_v new_a man_n

or_o thereabouts_o but_o if_o this_o counsel_n be_v mislike_v it_o will_v be_v sufficient_a to_o withstand_v the_o sudden_a course_n of_o our_o neighbour_n if_o the_o say_v 25._o thousand_o shall_v be_v levy_v upon_o the_o four_o frontier_n that_o be_v most_o in_o hazard_n of_o this_o danger_n which_o number_n may_v be_v ordinary_o maintain_v as_o be_v aforesaid_a and_o put_v case_n that_o

although_o i_o think_v it_o be_v to_o be_v doubt_v for_o that_o all_o the_o disorder_n that_o such_o sort_n of_o people_n can_v do_v be_v after_o two_o manner_n to_o weet_fw-mi among_o themselves_o

be_v levy_v by_o way_n of_o ordinary_n do_v foresee_v into_o it_o who_o punish_v greevous_o quarreller_n mutin_n and_o all_o other_o sort_n of_o people_n that_o commmit_v any_o crime_n as_o shall_v

the_o king_n shall_v always_o be_v strong_a than_o they_o and_o they_o must_v rather_o be_v take_v at_o the_o hold_v up_o of_o a_o finger_n than_o that_o one_o offence_n shall_v escape_v unpunished_a and_o when_o all_o be_v say_v the_o almaigne_n soldier_n do_v govern_v themselves_o well_o under_o a_o law_n and_o do_v well_o maintain_v justice_n among_o they_o who_o use_v in_o their_o country_n i_o mean_v out_o of_o their_o great_a town_n a_o more_o great_a liberty_n to_o do_v evil_a than_o the_o most_o corrupt_a of_o we_o in_o france_n and_o notwithstanding_o contrary_a unto_o their_o

they_o be_v levy_v to_o tarry_v at_o home_n upon_o their_o own_o dunghill_n what_o will_v then_o in_o truth_n our_o soldier_n do_v who_o be_v breed_v in_o a_o country_n that_o be_v govern_v by_o law_n &_o which_o do_v punish_v offence_n more_o rigorous_o than_o any_o other_o that_o be_v know_v true_o i_o think_v that_o they_o will_v live_v at_o the_o least_o as_o honest_o as_o the_o almain_n do_v and_o also_o will_v not_o be_v less_o obedient_a unto_o their_o chief_n and_o unto_o those_o who_o they_o ought_v to_o obey_v touch_v the_o fault_n that_o they_o may_v commit_v at_o home_n among_o their_o neighbour_n the_o ordinary_a justice_n of_o the_o place_n where_o they_o dwell_v will_v punish_v they_o as_o the_o king_n his_o declaration_n make_v upon_o this_o point_n do_v instruct_v we_o by_o which_o he_o pretend_v that_o the_o justice_n of_o the_o colonel_n shall_v take_v place_n for_o the_o offence_n of_o their_o legionarie_a soldier_n but_o only_o while_o they_o be_v in_o camp_n or_o elsewhere_o under_o their_o ensign_n of_o who_o they_o be_v to_o execute_v good_a and_o short_a punishment_n but_o when_o they_o be_v return_v or_o that_o they_o be_v not_o levy_v to_o go_v into_o the_o field_n the_o ordinary_a justice_n shall_v punish_v they_o but_o if_o so_o be_v that_o the_o say_v soldier_n will_v exempt_v themselves_o from_o the_o ordinary_a justice_n by_o force_n and_o that_o through_o their_o great_a number_n they_o will_v be_v the_o ready_a and_o bold_a to_o do_v mischief_n in_o join_v themselves_o together_o or_o make_v any_o show_n to_o levy_v themselves_o without_o express_a commandment_n of_o their_o colonel_n to_o the_o intent_n to_o overrun_v and_o spoil_v the_o country_n or_o to_o use_v force_n unto_o any_o man_n in_o these_o case_n it_o may_v be_v lawful_a for_o the_o people_n to_o rise_v and_o to_o put_v themselves_o in_o arm_n to_o strengthen_v justice_n if_o it_o be_v require_v without_o who_o authority_n or_o the_o commandment_n of_o some_o royal_a officer_n and_o that_o also_o of_o the_o chief_a sort_n i_o be_o not_o of_o opinion_n that_o the_o people_n shall_v rise_v for_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v that_o they_o will_v do_v more_o insolence_n than_o the_o soldier_n themselves_o as_o do_v those_o that_o late_o rise_v at_o tours_n and_o thereabouts_o who_o in_o few_o day_n do_v more_o hurt_v and_o damage_n unto_o honest_a man_n and_o unto_o the_o place_n they_o pass_v through_o than_o the_o malefactor_n who_o they_o pursue_v have_v do_v in_o all_o the_o time_n that_o they_o keep_v the_o field_n and_o after_o this_o manner_n i_o believe_v we_o ought_v to_o understand_v the_o king_n his_o institution_n make_v in_o the_o year_n 1523._o by_o which_o he_o permit_v the_o people_n to_o defend_v their_o good_n against_o a_o company_n of_o hen_n eater_n which_o do_v sometime_o thrust_v themselves_o upon_o the_o country_n without_o commission_n but_o for_o that_o it_o be_v a_o most_o hard_a matter_n that_o soldier_n shall_v commit_v any_o offence_n but_o that_o the_o chief_n shall_v immediate_o be_v inform_v of_o it_o who_o oftentimes_o make_v show_v not_o to_o understand_v of_o their_o fault_n be_v negligent_a in_o reform_v they_o yea_o and_o sometime_o give_v they_o example_n to_o do_v evil_a so_o that_o the_o misdemeanour_n of_o the_o soldier_n do_v proceed_v asmuch_o of_o the_o captain_n his_o fault_n as_o of_o the_o evil_a disposition_n of_o the_o soldier_n therefore_o i_o say_v it_o must_v be_v narrow_o look_v into_o that_o those_o wicked_a chief_n may_v be_v punish_v with_o rigour_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o they_o may_v be_v a_o example_n unto_o other_o their_o like_a to_o amend_v themselves_o and_o unto_o the_o good_a to_o be_v more_o careful_a to_o punish_v their_o evil_a doer_n and_o if_o this_o levy_n shall_v be_v think_v dangerous_a for_o the_o advantage_n it_o may_v give_v unto_o colonel_n who_o may_v so_o win_v their_o soldier_n heart_n as_o that_o they_o may_v use_v they_o at_o their_o will_n through_o their_o long_a authority_n over_o they_o and_o continual_a frequentation_n the_o sure_a way_n will_v be_v oftentimes_o to_o change_v colonel_n and_o to_o give_v such_o charge_n unto_o those_o that_o before_o have_v make_v some_o proof_n of_o their_o loyalty_n unto_o the_o king_n and_o then_o it_o will_v not_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v that_o they_o shall_v help_v themselves_o with_o their_o force_n against_o the_o king_n nor_o his_o subject_n as_o i_o think_v for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n in_o france_n but_o have_v rather_o continue_v poor_a in_o his_o obedience_n be_v account_v for_o a_o honest_a man_n then_o to_o serve_v his_o enemy_n to_o become_v rich_a and_o to_o be_v account_v for_o a_o traitor_n and_o a_o wicked_a man_n but_o if_o perhaps_o there_o be_v any_o colonel_n that_o will_v make_v proof_n of_o any_o commotion_n by_o mean_n of_o his_o authority_n the_o king_n shall_v always_o be_v strong_a enough_o to_o overthrow_v he_o and_o to_o cut_v his_o follower_n in_o piece_n with_o little_a difficulty_n this_o inconvenience_n then_o need_v no_o more_o to_o be_v doubt_v because_o that_o those_o that_o heretofore_o encourage_v the_o

know_v all_o manner_n of_o vagabond_n and_o have_v power_n to_o punish_v they_o with_o death_n when_o they_o do_v get_v they_o but_o for_o that_o the_o legionary_n be_v swear_v &_o know_a man_n it_o
