the_o front_n and_o so_o be_v ready_a with_o double_a hand_n either_o to_o receive_v or_o give_v the_o charge_n for_o those_o battle_n of_o square_a of_o ground_n or_o battle_n of_o double_a front_n do_v bring_v many_o hand_n to_o fight_v at_o once_o be_v very_o advantageous_a for_o footman_n against_o footman_n as_o reason_n and_o experience_n prove_v and_o show_v and_o again_o if_o you_o draw_v or_o divide_v your_o battle_n or_o battallion_n into_o maniple_n to_o march_v through_o strait_n or_o narrow_a passage_n strait_n this_o order_n of_o double_v the_o file_n be_v very_o ready_a and_o available_a as_o thus_o if_o your_o battle_n or_o squadron_n be_v of_o 5184_o pike_n who_o square_a root_n be_v 72_o now_o your_o passage_n will_v permit_v but_o 8_o man_n to_o march_v in_o front_n then_o must_v you_o divide_v your_o square_a root_n 72_o by_o 8_o so_o come_v it_o to_o be_v 9_o maniple_n of_o 8_o man_n in_o rank_n or_o breadth_n and_o say_v yet_o again_o that_o the_o straight_a or_o passage_n do_v fall_v yet_o more_o narrow_a or_o straighten_v less_o then_o to_o contain_v 8_o man_n in_o front_n they_o cause_v every_o maniple_n at_o the_o very_o enter_v of_o the_o straight_o to_o double_v their_o file_n and_o so_o of_o 8_o you_o shall_v make_v 4_o file_n per_fw-la maniple_n the_o which_o be_v shoulder_v up_o close_o together_o will_v contain_v no_o more_o room_n in_o

straight_o gen._n but_o if_o the_o squadron_n or_o maniple_n be_v of_o odd_a number_n it_o will_v not_o so_o fall_v out_o capt._n rank_n that_o import_v not_o for_o the_o odd_a file_n or_o rank_n which_o rest_v undouble_v may_v in_o pass_v of_o the_o straight_o close_o up_o shoulder_n to_o shoulder_n unto_o the_o rest_n observe_v their_o proper_a station_n in_o file_n and_o if_o the_o passage_n will_v not_o permit_v that_o then_o to_o fall_v back_o after_o the_o train_n of_o their_o maniple_n &_o have_v pass_v the_o straight_a to_o sleeve_n up_o in_o file_n pouldron_n to_o
