doubling_n of_o middle-man_n and_o bringer_n up_o make_v but_o half_a the_o deepness_n but_o in_o the_o self_n same_o broadness_n unit_v themselves_o in_o confederacy_n by_o double_a the_o former_a number_n the_o use_n of_o all_o these_o doubling_n in_o general_a be_v when_o upon_o a_o sudden_a surpryse_n you_o double_v your_o strength_n in_o present_v but_o this_o hold_v not_o always_o in_o double_v of_o string_n for_o than_o they_o be_v all_o open_a and_o it_o be_v for_o evasion_n either_o of_o small_a or_o great_a shot_n but_o if_o the_o assault_n be_v upon_o the_o wing_n and_o the_o command_v to_o the_o right_n or_o left_a hand_n the_o first_o use_n than_o hold_v they_o be_v often_o practise_v within_o a_o wall_n a_o hedge_n or_o advantage_n with_o other_o use_v which_o brevity_n

instruction_n herein_a be_v all_o one_o when_o you_o countermarch_v the_o first_o rank_n or_o leader_n only_o must_v advance_v and_o step_v forward_o with_o the_o right_n or_o left_a leg_n if_o to_o

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

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
