we shall bee O pinion of the minde are like diseases of the body all alike infinite V iolent passions makes men bandy controversies who fight with their Pens like Souldiers with their Pikes wounding the peace of the Church R eligion is more practicall then theoriticall rather an occupation then a meer profession dwelling like an Artizan wit at singers end O ne man is an Atheist and beleeves no God another is an I dolater and worships many one will be of a new Religion another of none no matter to the Devill they are both travelling towards his kingdome Roome never means us so sudden a storm as when she makes faire weather and beares us in hand all is peace D ogs are fawning but sicophantising Iesuits are worse for their tongues doe more harme then their teeth E very man that will not adhere to the God of truth shall be turned over to the faither of lies R esist the Devill and he will flye from thee give to God obedience to thy Prince allegiance to superiours reverence to the weak assistance to the Devill and sin resistance O ur day is broken why day we sleep in sin when the Sunne is up good husbands thinke of rising the slumber of the body and the soul is not much unlike R epent therefore in life that thou maiest finde comfort in death that thou maiest be acquitted at the day of judgement of Jesus Christ O ur entrance into this world is full of weaknesse our proceeding full of wickednesse our departure full of wretchednesse P ray that you may leave the earth when you know the way perfectly to heaven desire to live till you are inspired by grace desire to dye when you are assured of glory E very man with Paul learne to dye daily for no man knows when he shall dye therefore be evermore armed with expectation N ever expect peace without Christ whosoever dyes in peace dyes in Christ the Prince of peace O ur breath is in our bodies the life of our soules is in heaven our bodies move upon earth let our heart dwell in heaven R ighteousnesse must dwell in those that looke to dwell in heaven where righteousnesse dwelleth for Christ is the Lord of righteousnesse D eath takes the clocke of our life asunder but then the omnipotent Maker takes it into his owne hand and sets it together againe at the Resurrection E nquire not what heaven is too curiously lest thou have a snib as Manoah had for asking the Angels name it is secret and wonderfull R emember Gods mercies and blessings to us in all times of this pilgrimage and he will hear us when we pray with the penitent theefe Lordremember us in thy Kingdome Silence STand right in your Files Stand right in

according to my intention of brevity is needlesse to be here inserted they having been sufficiently written of by your Trained Band teachers I shall but only present you further with what firings are necessary for our present service out of a single Company or Regiment wishing heartily all noble Captaines and their officers would conforme themselves to these brief rules using no other words of Command then what are here used Y our single Company being drawne up Regiment wise at three foot distance being your order and your Pikes all shouldered the manner of firing to the Front is first let the two first Ranks making ready advance 8 or 10 paces from the Body the rest of the Ranks marching to the front of Pikes which two Ranks having presented and fired one after another let them march off to the right and left hand the next two ranks doing the same with the rest successively as long as you please when you draw near to your Enemy or by way of supposition charge over your Pikes three ranks deep and the rest ported following the charge T o fire from the reare first command your Body to advance their Pikes then face them about to the right or left and then shoulder your Pikes againe moving your Body command the two last Ranks to make ready being ready command the last Ranke to the Rear present who is to turn to the right hand and give fire and so turning up to the right and left advanceth into Front placing themselves before their Leaders the rest of the Ranks doing the same successively one after another T o fire from your right and left stanks command the right and left hand file to make ready which done marching your Body command them to present to the right and left and so give fire which being done let the files stand and charge their Muskets again by which time the two next files wil have performed the like who are also in like manner to stand facing toward their Commander and the first file is immediately to march up to the second the next files having done the like are to stand the first and second file advancing up to them and so of all the rest successively making up your Body again with all speed that may be T here is sometimes another firing used standing whereby an Enemy may receive suddenly a very hot charge when you are retreating command your Body to face about to the right or left and then let them all make ready which done standing let the first Ranke fire and fall off into the Reare and so the rest of them in like maner successively one after another your Pikes retreating back as your body loseth ground Y ou are to use your endeavour to bring your souldiers to know the severall notes of a Drum and what he is to performe upon the hearing of them your Pikemen being to be shouldered upon the beat of a march and advanced upon the beat of a troop This thing perfected will be sufficient for our present service to which God give 〈◊〉 FINIS
