up_o and_o turn_v behind_o their_o leader_n but_o they_o be_v mistake_v and_o conceive_v not_o right_o of_o the_o author_n from_o whence_o they_o take_v their_o instruction_n for_o this_o motion_n

rest_n pass_v by_o he_o on_o the_o right_n or_o left_a hand_n place_n themselves_o orderly_o one_o behind_o another_o and_o here_o be_v to_o be_v note_v that_o all_o these_o countermarche_n already_o

in_o the_o former_a example_n rank_n the_o next_o motion_n be_v the_o double_n of_o rank_n either_o to_o the_o right_n or_o left_a hand_n entire_o as_o when_o the_o second_o rank_n march_v into_o the_o first_o the_o four_o into_o the_o three_o the_o six_o into_o the_o five_o and_o the_o eight_o into_o the_o seven_o and_o this_o motion_n must_v be_v do_v very_o orderly_o begin_v with_o the_o

in_o this_o example_n half_n file_n undouble_v half_n file_n double_v be_v now_o to_o reduce_v or_o bring_v these_o into_o their_o first_o place_n or_o form_n the_o half_a file_n which_o do_v ascend_v

and_o so_o every_o man_n be_v in_o his_o first_o place_n again_o the_o next_o motion_n unto_o these_o be_v wheel_v wheeling_n or_o turn_v the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o battalion_n to_o one_o or_o the_o other_o hand_n or_o entire_o round_a about_o or_o otherwise_o by_o division_n to_o wheel_v it_o to_o both_o hand_n at_o once_o either_o in_o part_n or_o else_o round_o about_o the_o general_a manner_n of_o the_o motion_n be_v thus_o first_o close_a your_o file_n to_o the_o right_a hand_n and_o your_o rank_n to_o the_o sword_n point_n then_o make_v the_o corner_n file_n leader_n to_o the_o right_a hand_n stand_v fast_o and_o then_o all_o the_o whole_a body_n of_o the_o battalion_n to_o move_v or_o wheel_n about_o he_o as_o about_o a_o centre_n either_o half_a about_o or_o three_o part_n about_o or_o else_o whole_o and_o full_o round_a about_o now_o to_o reduce_v it_o to_o the_o first_o posture_n or_o station_n you_o shall_v command_v every_o man_n to_o turn_v his_o face_n to_o the_o left_a hand_n then_o wheel_v the_o body_n back_o again_o till_o it_o come_v to_o its_o first_o place_n and_o then_o open_a the_o rank_n downward_o and_o the_o file_n either_o to_o one_o or_o the_o other_o hand_n at_o pleasure_n as_o thus_o you_o wheel_v the_o whole_a body_n to_o the_o one_o or_o the_o other_o hand_n or_o entire_o round_a about_o so_o you_o may_v wheel_v it_o to_o both_o hand_n at_o once_o by_o division_n either_o in_o part_n or_o round_o about_o according_a to_o pleasure_n and_o this_o be_v of_o singular_a use_n when_o the_o horse_n shall_v come_v to_o charge_v the_o foot_n for_o by_o this_o wheel_n you_o shall_v cover_v your_o shot_n safe_a and_o leave_v your_o pike_n outmost_a to_o receive_v the_o charge_n now_o this_o wheel_n be_v to_o be_v make_v after_o a_o other_o manner_n for_o where_o before_o either_o the_o corner_n man_n of_o the_o right_a hand_n file_n or_o the_o corner_n man_n of_o the_o left_a hand_n file_n be_v to_o stand_v fast_o and_o firm_a now_o all_o shall_v move_v and_o only_o the_o middle_a man_n in_o the_o rear_n to_o the_o right_a flank_n and_o the_o middle_a man_n in_o the_o rear_n to_o the_o left_a flank_n shall_v stand_v fast_o and_o unmoved_a and_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o two_o divide_v body_n shall_v move_v about_o they_o according_a to_o these_o example_n follow_v the_o battalion_n vnwheeled_a the_o battalion_n wheel_v the_o battalion_n half_o wheel_v the_o battalion_n wheel_v round_o about_o thus_o you_o have_v see_v the_o manner_n of_o wheeling_n with_o the_o several_a motion_n and_o use_v thereof_o the_o next_o motion_n whereto_o foot_n company_n ought_v to_o be_v apply_v be_v the_o cast_v off_o of_o file_n file_n or_o as_o some_o call_v it_o the_o give_v of_o fire_n by_o flank_n or_o in_o the_o flank_n and_o this_o motion_n of_o cast_v of_o file_n be_v do_v diverse_a way_n as_o first_o in_o flank_n then_o in_o wing_n and_o last_o before_o the_o front_n if_o you_o cast_v off_o file_n in_o flank_n to_o the_o right_a hand_n than_o the_o right_a hand_n file_v be_v ready_a to_o give_v fire_n stand_v still_o till_o the_o body_n of_o the_o battalion_n be_v march_v so_o far_o forward_o that_o the_o

up_o between_o the_o outmost_a file_n of_o pike_n on_o the_o right_a hand_n and_o the_o inmost_a file_n of_o shot_n then_o the_o second_o file_n of_o shot_n as_o the_o first_o do_v stand_v still_o till_o the_o body_n be_v march_v by_o and_o then_o give_v their_o volley_n and_o then_o march_v up_o as_o they_o first_o do_v between_o the_o outmost_a file_n of_o pike_n and_o the_o inmost_a file_n of_o shot_n as_o aforesaid_a and_o thus_o successive_o every_o file_n of_o shot_n give_v their_o volley_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o that_o right_a wing_n which_o do_v wheel_n the_o whole_a body_n about_o and_o bring_v the_o left_a wing_n to_o do_v as_o much_o as_o the_o right_a wing_n and_o so_o wing_n after_o wing_n according_a to_o pleasure_n and_o this_o manner_n of_o cast_v of_o file_n in_o flank_n be_v of_o excellent_a use_n for_o the_o beat_n of_o pace_n in_o wood_n or_o bog_n also_o for_o the_o mayntain_n of_o straight_a and_o narrow_a way_n for_o defence_n of_o bridge_n and_o the_o like_a and_o that_o you_o may_v have_v a_o better_a understanding_n therein_o behold_v the_o figure_n follow_v file_n cast_v off_o in_o flank_n to_o the_o right_a

incertain_a and_o at_o pleasure_n there_o will_v then_o be_v no_o ground_n for_o any_o thing_n but_o everthe_v will_v be_v confuse_v according_a to_o the_o phantast_n quenesse_n of_o opinion_n when_o you_o have_v therefore_o draw_v your_o horse_n troop_n into_o rank_n and_o file_n troop_n which_o you_o must_v do_v file_n after_o file_n till_o every_o man_n be_v place_v according_a to_o the_o

rank_n three_o five_o seven_o or_o as_o fancy_n lead_v they_o for_o this_o be_v most_o absurd_a and_o unproper_a because_o rank_n be_v and_o may_v be_v of_o uncertain_a number_n so_o that_o rank_v at_o hap_n hazard_v it_o be_v almost_o impossible_a that_o the_o file_n shall_v fall_v out_o even_o who_o number_n must_v not_o be_v change_v and_o so_o a_o new_a work_n to_o begin_v which_o at_o the_o first_o might_n better_o have_v be_v finish_v but_o to_o my_o purpose_n again_o when_o you_o have_v draw_v up_o the_o body_n of_o the_o horse_n in_o true_a file_n and_o rank_n and_o have_v every_o officer_n ready_a for_o his_o due_a place_n as_o captain_n lieutenant_n cornet_n trumpet_n and_o corporal_n you_o shall_v then_o according_a to_o the_o figure_n or_o example_n follow_v in_o

with_o all_o the_o officer_n of_o a_o private_a troop_n and_o how_o they_o be_v divide_v into_o four_o devision_n the_o first_o or_o head_n be_v lead_v by_o the_o captain_n the_o second_o division_n
