By addition or number 2. By supplie of Necessaries 3. By aduantage of place 4. By order of gouernement Sr as I am no computing writer so I haue bestowed little labour in them which handle such employments And I thinke your selfe to bee as wise as the Orotor of Greece which so peremptorilie entreated such things before Hannibal that greatest Captaine in the worlde But I thinke if you had well committed to memory the warres and battailes of Abraham Gedeon Sampson Iosue Dauid and others recorded in Seriptures wherein you and yours bee so inspired or with ordinarily qualited Gentlemen of England taken but a superficiall Muster of the warres of Alexander with Darius Of the Christians against the Moores in Spayne The Spanyards against the Infidels in the Indies Or Henry the fifte and other English Kinges in France Or beene a little acquainted with Plato and Aristotle which you cite in the beginning of the first page of your Motyues you would haue beene mooued to adde other members to your diuision gyuing it as an instruction to so greate a Princesse But Souldiers shall giue you this Reprehension And I will in this point onely call to your remembrance that you displayed your Banner to farre for a Souldier of small experience and which neuer kept Centinell before may easelie discouer that according to your skill you labour to possesse your parte of all those meanes by which you thinke the power and strength of any people or multitude I vse your owne tearmes is to be augmented Your first fortification is by addition or number of this you would easely bee owners if you might teach Queene and Councell and haue such stratagems in vse which none but your holy fraternity doth allowe Your second embatailement is raysed by supplic of Necessaries of which you woulde also be Masters if all Armour and weapons were brought into your Armouries Of the third which is aduantage of place you would haue aduantage enough if none but of your allowance lowance might be admitted to place of Magistracie or be placed in any office or place of defence As for the fourth and last order of gouerument Pag. 41. insr you triumph al ready that most men of action and resolution be for you as also that in diuers respects for number you are ten to one And say in plaine tearmes Pag. 41. that it is not good in policy to prouoke the Puritanes in the declyning of her Maiesties age and raigne THE XII VNTRVTH THE next diuision he preferreth to no meaner personage theÌ„ our gratious Soueraigne her selfe in these teames Let me present vnto your Maiestie Pag. 11. the whol number of your Subiects diuided into 4. bands 1.

Therefore his by-membred diuision of necessitie is lame by many lims And if such a Tutor of Princes might haue a saculty by himselfe to renounce all other artes as his spirit condemneth all other Religions yet he shall finde many more endes then two of these which bee professors of Reuerence in this Nation And euery man which professeth not Religion for the loue of God is not of such dexterity of wit as this Puritane and his Associates be to make it a cloake to practise in State affaires Pag. 23.
