the_o self_n same_o instant_n save_v only_o in_o the_o former_a exception_n and_o in_o respect_n of_o place_n it_o be_v to_o be_v consider_v there_o be_v three_o sort_n of_o distance_n to_o wit_n

for_o the_o musquetier_n who_o must_v never_o be_v close_a and_o the_o reason_n be_v they_o must_v have_v a_o free_a use_n of_o their_o arms._n the_o three_o distance_n or_o closs_n order_n be_v

be_v to_o place_v the_o company_n in_o the_o first_o distance_n of_o open_a order_n and_o that_o for_o the_o reason_n in_o it_o own_o place_n beforesayd_a the_o second_o be_v consist_v in_o this_o word_n of_o commandment_n to_o wit_n silence_z the_o use_n thereof_o be_v that_o all_o may_v give_v audience_n and_o observance_n to_o that_o only_o which_o be_v command_v and_o the_o three_o be_v to_o make_v know_v to_o they_o all_o what_o a_o rank_n and_o a_o string_n be_v and_o the_o best_a definition_n i_o can_v give_v you_o be_v to_o wit_n of_o a_o rank_n when_o you_o consider_v it_o from_o the_o right_n to_o the_o left_a hand_n only_o one_o man_n in_o deepness_n and_o of_o a_o string_n when_o you_o reckon_v and_o consider_v it_o from_o the_o front_n to_o the_o rear_n only_o one_o man_n in_o broadness_n the_o three_o thing_n be_v consist_v in_o two_o commandment_n to_o wit_n stand_v right_a in_o your_o rank_n stand_v right_a in_o your_o string_n the_o instruction_n how_o to_o

three_o order_n their_o distance_n then_o must_v be_v equal_a but_o respectiuè_fw-la and_o the_o reason_n be_v if_o stand_v not_o right_a in_o rank_n and_o string_n they_o shall_v be_v promiscuous_a and_o there-upon_o confusion_n so_o contrary_a to_o order_v for_o the_o very_a essence_n and_o subsistence_n of_o military_a exercise_n be_v order_n the_o use_n of_o these_o precept_n be_v in_o that_o they_o be_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o whole_a exercise_n for_o what_o exercise_n can_v be_v perform_v without_o a_o rank_n and_o string_n except_o simples_n which_o may_v be_v do_v by_o one_o only_o person_n without_o a_o body_n and_o now_o of_o the_o exercise_n itself_o who_o composition_n be_v of_o motion_n and_o they_o be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o first_o be_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o exercise_n itself_o which_o without_o arm_n may_v be_v do_v the_o second_o be_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o posture_n in_o handle_v of_o the_o arm_n and_o for_o the_o first_o of_o these_o they_o be_v lykewayes_o of_o two_o sort_n the_o first_o of_o these_o be_v primitive_a or_o more_o simple_a motion_n the_o second_o be_v derivitive_a or_o motion_n of_o a_o ample_a practice_n and_o just_o the_o particular_a exercise_n be_v call_v motion_n and_o of_o these_o primitive_a and_o more_o simple_a motion_n which_o be_v in_o number_n eight_o four_o distinguish_v and_o four_o indistinct_a as_o you_o may_v perceive_v by_o the_o word_n of_o command_n to_o wit_n to_o the_o right_a hand_n as_o you_o be_v to_o the_o left_a hand_n as_o you_o be_v to_o the_o right_a hand_n about_o as_o you_o be_v to_o the_o left_a hand_n about_o as_o you_o be_v the_o instruction_n how_o to_o perform_v the_o distinguish_v four_o be_v when_o to_o what_o hand_n you_o turn_v the_o foot_n of_o the_o self_n same_o hand_n or_o side_n by_o move_a indeed_o turn_n but_o the_o contrary_a foot_n only_o remoove_v as_o for_o exple_n if_o you_o turn_v to_o the_o right_a hand_n the_o foot_n of_o the_o right_a side_n must_v move_a turn_n but_o the_o he_o will_v of_o the_o foresay_a foot_n must_v keep_v the_o same_o place_n &_o the_o contrary_a foot_n only_o remove_v and_o the_o reason_n be_v to_o keep_v a_o perfect_a equal_a distance_n by_o all_o and_o the_o lesson_n in_o perform_v the_o other_o four_o be_v to_o be_v special_o note_v when_o you_o be_v command_v as_o you_o be_v you_o be_v to_o return_v by_o the_o contrary_a hand_n as_o for_o example_n if_o you_o turn_v to_o the_o right_a hand_n you_o be_v to_o return_v as_o you_o be_v to_o the_o left_a hand_n but_o the_o self_n same_o foot_n which_o do_v not_o remove_v in_o the_o turn_n must_v not_o remove_v in_o return_v and_o that_o for_o the_o reason_n in_o the_o precede_a instruction_n the_o use_n of_o these_o motiones_fw-la be_v in_o that_o they_o be_v the_o fundamental_a mean_n where_o by_o you_o may_v frame_v a_o company_n consequent_o a_o great_a body_n to_o any_o fashion_n or_o figure_n that_o be_v exigent_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n of_o place_v your_o company_n this_o general_a observation_n must_v not_o be_v for_o get_v that_o in_o the_o front_n middle_n and_o rear_n the_o most_o expert_a and_o capable_a be_v place_v for_o they_o be_v leader_n who_o the_o rest_n must_v follow_v in_o perform_v the_o subsequent_a motiones_fw-la where-upon_a this_o general_a precept_n be_v to_o be_v publish_v to_o wit_n follow_v your_o leader_n and_o keep_v with_o your_o right_a hand_n man_n the_o use_n hereof_o be_v for_o facillitate_v their_o practice_n for_o it_o be_v a_o precept_n to_o each_o other_o rank_n to_o each_o other_o string_n as_o also_o to_o the_o follower_n of_o middle-man_n and_o fellower_n of_o bringer_n up_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v that_o be_v to_o they_o only_o this_o rule_n they_o be_v most_o inexpert_a for_o rudeness_n and_o inexperience_n require_v not_o only_o precept_n but_o example_n and_o this_o for_o perform_v the_o follow_a motiones_fw-la which_o be_v of_o the_o second_o sort_n and_o of_o a_o ample_a practice_n and_o they_o be_v in_o number_n many_o the_o first_o of_o they_o be_v double_a your_o rank_n to_o the_o right_a hand_n as_o you_o be_v double_o your_o rank_n to_o the_o left_a

distance_n betwixt_o string_n &_o string_n to_o what_o hand_n they_o be_v command_v double_o your_o string_n to_o the_o right_a hand_n as_o you_o be_v double_o your_o string_n to_o the_o left_a hand_n as_o you_o be_v double_v of_o string_n be_v do_v when_o each_o other_o string_n from_o what_o hand_n you_o double_a man_n by_o man_n interponeth_n themselnes_n severallie_o betwixt_o man_n and_o man_n in_o the_o distance_n betwixt_o rank_n and_o rank_n to_o what_o you_o be_v command_v middle-man_n double_v your_o front_n to_o the_o right_a hand_n as_o you_o be_v middle-man_n double_v your_o front_n to_o the_o left_a hand_n as_o you_o be_v this_o be_v do_v when_o the_o sixth_o rank_n equal_o march_v up_o to_o the_o front_n and_o their_o place_v themselves_o betwixt_o man_n and_o man_n in_o the_o
