advice_n to_o the_o army_n on_o their_o go_v to_o france_n and_o ireland_n if_o i_o have_v not_o know_v my_o brave_a and_o valiant_a soldier_n that_o your_o spirit_n and_o courage_n desire_v rather_o the_o glory_n and_o renown_n of_o god_n than_o your_o own_o proper_a safety_n i_o will_v never_o have_v venture_v myself_o under_o your_o affiance_n and_o valour_n and_o for_o that_o i_o well_o know_v the_o renown_n and_o fame_n of_o our_o predecessor_n who_o have_v obtain_v in_o france_n and_o ireland_n so_o many_o victory_n will_v stir_v up_o in_o you_o my_o loving_n companion_n courage_n to_o follow_v their_o step_n and_o honourable_a endeavour_n and_o that_o the_o memory_n of_o their_o exploit_n and_o glorious_a act_n may_v be_v as_o prevailent_a in_o you_o as_o they_o have_v be_v in_o your_o predecessor_n in_o consider_v the_o thing_n which_o may_v now_o eternalise_v you_o i_o doubt_v not_o at_o any_o hand_n but_o you_o will_v cause_v your_o valiantness_n and_o virtue_n to_o appear_v through_o the_o world_n and_o especial_o in_o those_o quarter_n where_o we_o shall_v see_v more_o store_n of_o enemy_n than_o friend_n and_o where_o we_o must_v with_o the_o edge_n of_o our_o sword_n make_v our_o passage_n be_v in_o a_o country_n which_o most_o of_o we_o have_v never_o see_v where_o be_v no_o great_a surety_n to_o repose_v any_o confidence_n and_o where_o infinite_a danger_n do_v abound_v and_o the_o army_n which_o already_o be_v prepare_v against_o the_o french_a and_o popish_a party_n in_o ireland_n be_v motive_n which_o may_v induce_v they_o to_o fear_n of_o which_o we_o ought_v to_o make_v our_o benefit_n to_o cause_v our_o prudence_n wisdom_n and_o dexterity_n of_o spirit_n to_o be_v know_v which_o be_v virtue_n more_o desire_v than_o any_o other_o in_o that_o thereby_o man_n shall_v see_v the_o boldness_n and_o courage_n of_o you_o and_o the_o faith_n and_o end_n of_o that_o inviolable_a oath_n which_o we_o all_o have_v make_v to_o the_o prince_n of_o orange_n and_o protestant_n religion_n behold_v we_o be_v ready_a to_o embark_v which_o shall_v cause_v we_o all_o to_o rejoice_v and_o not_o to_o follow_v corporal_n and_o effeminate_a pleasure_n which_o make_v a_o man_n weak_a sickly_a and_o tender_a but_o to_o aspire_v to_o honour_n riches_n and_o victory_n and_o to_o have_v the_o reward_n of_o our_o honourable_a deed_n such_o as_o shall_v be_v yield_v to_o we_o by_o prosperous_a fortune_n which_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o it_o will_v be_v such_o towards_o we_o that_o of_o terrestrial_a man_n it_o will_v make_v we_o celestial_a and_o sound_v in_o the_o air_n so_o honourable_a a_o bruit_n of_o our_o worthy_a name_n that_o neither_o time_n nor_o death_n shall_v obscure_v nor_o rake_v it_o up_o in_o oblivion_n but_o we_o shall_v live_v time_n out_o of_o memory_n yea_o eternal_o and_o for_o that_o we_o be_v now_o to_o deal_v with_o people_n who_o differ_v not_o much_o from_o our_o custom_n and_o manner_n of_o live_v of_o who_o it_o behove_v we_o to_o win_v their_o love_n and_o like_n by_o policy_n and_o discretion_n to_o our_o devotion_n will_n and_o friendship_n we_o must_v be_v very_o modest_a temperate_a and_o quiet_a and_o must_v banish_v avarice_n despise_v voluptuousness_n and_o contemn_v the_o pleasure_n of_o the_o body_n and_o above_o all_o must_v fly_v all_o idleness_n which_o how_o
