of_o all_o the_o band_n take_v no_o care_n of_o provide_v for_o the_o back_n for_o the_o side_n and_o the_o innermost_a rank_n as_o if_o the_o foremost_a rank_n be_v the_o whole_a hope_n of_o the_o

that_o this_o manner_n be_v not_o so_o good_a as_o that_o of_o the_o roman_n many_o example_n of_o the_o roman_a legion_n do_v tell_v we_o because_o that_o whensoever_o the_o roman_n fight_v against_o the_o greek_n their_o phalanges_fw-la be_v consume_v and_o overthrow_v by_o the_o roman_a legion_n for_o the_o difference_n of_o the_o arm_n which_o these_o nation_n do_v use_v and_o also_o the_o
