therefore_o give_v commandment_n that_o no_o soldier_n enroll_v remove_v his_o dwell_n out_o of_o the_o town_n or_o parish_n of_o his_o abode_n without_o licence_n obtain_v of_o the_o deputy_n

and_o be_v careful_a in_o obey_v this_o his_o majesty_n command_n 5._o forasmuch_o as_o there_o be_v at_o this_o present_a great_a preparation_n both_o in_o spain_n and_o flanders_n as_o well_o for_o land_n as_o sea-force_n and_o that_o it_o be_v most_o apparent_a that_o the_o enemy_n of_o his_o majesty_n peace_n have_v some_o design_n upon_o his_o highness_n kingdom_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v

man_n be_v many_o of_o they_o of_o several_a boar_n so_o that_o the_o magazine_n of_o the_o country_n can_v possible_o serve_v they_o all_o that_o therefore_o every_o man_n who_o find_v any_o such_o
