❧_o order_n appoint_v by_o his_o most_o excellent_a majesty_n and_o signify_v by_o special_a letter_n from_o the_o right_n honourable_a the_o lord_n of_o his_o most_o honourable_a privy_a counsel_n which_o all_o person_n within_o this_o county_n of_o what_o degree_n or_o quality_n soever_o be_v strait_o command_v to_o observe_v 1._o forasmuch_o as_o the_o sergeant_n who_o be_v send_v by_o his_o majesty_n into_o this_o county_n for_o the_o exercise_v and_o instruct_v of_o the_o train_v soldier_n here_o have_v do_v much_o good_a yet_o not_o so_o much_o as_o his_o majesty_n may_v just_o expect_v from_o so_o exact_a rule_n and_o direction_n as_o be_v give_v a_o great_a cause_n whereof_o have_v be_v for_o that_o as_o well_o diverse_a who_o stand_v charge_v with_o find_v of_o arm_n have_v of_o late_a day_n be_v negligent_a to_o send_v their_o soldier_n and_o arm_n to_o the_o usual_a place_n of_o trayning_n as_o also_o the_o soldier_n when_o they_o be_v there_o have_v go_v away_o as_o soon_o as_o they_o be_v call_v before_o they_o have_v be_v exercise_v and_o have_v come_v thither_o without_o powder_n and_o match_n it_o be_v now_o therefore_o strait_o require_v that_o from_o henceforwards_o no_o man_n whatsoever_o that_o find_v either_o horse_n or_o foot_n presume_v to_o fail_v in_o send_v such_o horseman_n powder_n and_o arm_n which_o he_o be_v charge_v to_o send_v to_o the_o usual_a place_n of_o muster_n and_o that_o no_o soldier_n presume_v to_o depart_v from_o his_o colour_n until_o he_o shall_v be_v discharge_v by_o his_o captain_n and_o that_o no_o man_n charge_v with_o either_o horse_n or_o foot_n do_v presume_v to_o borrow_v either_o horse_n or_o arm_n but_o that_o he_o have_v the_o same_o always_o by_o he_o to_o be_v ready_a at_o a_o hour_n warning_n upon_o pain_n of_o severe_a punishment_n if_o the_o same_o be_v discover_v 2._o whereas_o his_o majesty_n have_v a_o special_a care_n that_o both_o captain_n officer_n and_o soldier_n be_v not_o only_o able_a and_o sufficient_a man_n but_o also_o well_o affect_v in_o religion_n and_o have_v therefore_o give_v express_a commandment_n that_o aswell_o the_o officer_n as_o soldier_n be_v not_o only_o able_a and_o sufficient_a man_n but_o also_o well_o affect_v in_o religion_n to_o which_o purpose_n his_o majesty_n have_v command_v that_o aswell_o the_o officer_n as_o soldier_n take_v the_o oath_n of_o allegiance_n that_o they_o therefore_o take_v notice_n hereof_o and_o fail_v not_o to_o be_v present_a at_o the_o time_n of_o trayning_n when_o they_o be_v to_o take_v the_o say_a oath_n lest_o a_o certificate_n be_v make_v to_o the_o lord_n of_o the_o counsel_n of_o their_o default_n there_o be_v a_o suspicion_n conceive_v of_o their_o disaffection_n in_o religion_n by_o reason_n of_o their_o absence_n at_o such_o time_n as_o they_o shall_v take_v the_o say_a oath_n 3._o whereas_o at_o the_o first_o come_v of_o the_o sergeant_n into_o the_o country_n there_o be_v special_a order_n give_v that_o out_o of_o every_o hundred_o man_n there_o shall_v be_v two_o choose_v to_o be_v sergeant_n &_o corporal_n who_o shall_v be_v teach_v and_o instruct_v to_o exercise_v the_o other_o soldier_n that_o they_o who_o be_v so_o choose_v according_o do_v at_o such_o time_n as_o there_o be_v no_o public_a training_n and_o when_o they_o have_v best_a leisure_n repair_n to_o the_o sergeant_n who_o be_v come_v out_o of_o the_o low-countries_n to_o that_o purpose_n to_o be_v instruct_v by_o they_o in_o the_o duty_n of_o their_o place_n and_o that_o as_o well_o they_o as_o all_o other_o officer_n be_v very_o careful_a to_o enable_v themselves_o to_o exercise_v their_o company_n when_o the_o sergeant_n be_v go_v out_o of_o the_o country_n 4._o forasmuch_o as_o his_o majesty_n have_v take_v special_a notice_n that_o a_o chief_a cause_n of_o the_o insufficiency_n of_o the_o train_a band_n of_o this_o kingdom_n proceed_v from_o the_o change_n of_o hatch_n 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 lieutenant_n of_o that_o division_n to_o the_o end_n that_o in_o case_n he_o shall_v be_v license_v to_o depart_v that_o then_o the_o company_n may_v be_v again_o make_v up_o and_o complete_a both_o for_o number_n person_n of_o active_a and_o able_a body_n and_o man_n practise_v in_o their_o arm_n it_o be_v therefore_o strait_o command_v that_o all_o the_o soldier_n take_v notice_n thereof_o 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 fit_a that_o every_o man_n be_v in_o a_o readiness_n upon_o any_o sudden_a alarm_n that_o therefore_o every_o horse_n man_n have_v always_o by_o he_o in_o a_o readiness_n a_o pound_n of_o powder_n and_o four_o and_o twenty_o bullet_n and_o every_o musquetiere_n his_o bandelier_n full_a of_o powder_n four_o and_o twenty_o bullet_n and_o six_o yard_n of_o match_n to_o serve_v upon_o any_o sudden_a alarm_n until_o the_o magazine_n of_o the_o county_n may_v be_v bring_v unto_o they_o it_o be_v therefore_o command_v that_o every_o soldier_n have_v in_o a_o readiness_n by_o he_o a_o snapsack_n to_o carry_v his_o victual_n in_o and_o the_o say_a powder_n match_n bullet_n and_o snapsack_n to_o be_v present_o provide_v and_o daily_o renew_v as_o occasion_n serve_v at_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o town_n or_o privateman_n that_o be_v charge_v with_o the_o say_a arm_n and_o for_o that_o the_o pistol_n and_o harquebuse_n for_o horse_n man_n and_o the_o musket_n for_o foot_n 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 arm_n have_v by_o he_o a_o melt_a ladle_n a_o pair_n of_o mould_v fit_a for_o his_o pistol_n harquebusse_n or_o musket_n according_a as_o he_o find_v the_o same_o 6._o that_o every_o officer_n and_o soldier_n be_v always_o in_o a_o readiness_n at_o a_o hour_n warning_n with_o his_o arm_n and_o provision_n as_o aforesaid_a to_o repair_v to_o his_o colour_n at_o such_o place_n of_o rendezvous_n as_o shall_v by_o his_o captain_n be_v appoint_v 7._o that_o such_o beacon_n as_o be_v in_o any_o sort_n decay_v be_v forthwith_o make_v up_o and_o repair_v and_o that_o there_o be_v provision_n of_o wood_n lay_v by_o they_o for_o the_o maintain_n and_o renew_v of_o they_o and_o that_o they_o be_v diligent_o watch_v by_o discreet_a and_o sufficient_a man_n 8._o whereas_o his_o majestic_a have_v give_v express_a commandment_n that_o there_o be_v sufficient_a provision_n of_o carriage_n in_o readiness_n for_o the_o convey_v of_o munition_n victual_n baggage_n etc._n etc._n to_o such_o rendezvous_n as_o the_o force_n of_o this_o county_n shall_v be_v assign_v unto_o and_o that_o to_o every_o thousand_o soldier_n there_o be_v allot_v one_o hundred_o pioner_n to_o be_v provide_v with_o spade_n pick●xes_n shovel_n h●tchets_n bill_n and_o the_o like_a and_o that_o there_o be_v cart_n and_o carriage_n and_o a_o convenient_a number_n of_o nag_n be_v appoint_v to_o mount_v shoot_v
