of_o the_o exercise_n of_o the_o foot-company_n which_o will_v in_o some_o measure_n teach_v they_o their_o duty_n for_o in_o the_o exercise_n of_o horse_n and_o foot_n there_o be_v not_o much_o difference_n before_o i_o pass_v any_o further_o let_v i_o remember_v the_o ensign_n bearer_n in_o few_o word_n concerning_o his_o place_n and_o duty_n and_o the_o displ●ying_n of_o the_o colour_n the_o ensign_n or_o colour_n be_v the_o honour_n and_o reputation_n of_o the_o captain_n and_o soldier_n therefore_o the_o ensign-bearer_n ought_v not_o only_o to_o be_v a_o good_a soldier_n bold_a

where_o the_o company_n be_v appoint_v to_o gather_v together_o he_o ought_v to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o first_o and_o to_o be_v careful_a of_o his_o colour_n and_o at_o all_o time_n see_v that_o they_o be_v well_o guard_v and_o be_v ready_a to_o do_v any_o thing_n to_o further_a the_o service_n within_o these_o few_o year_n a_o supreme_a commander_n in_o set_v down_o the_o duty_n of_o each_o
