in_o regard_n in_o the_o former_a discourse_n of_o march_v i_o have_v touch_v brief_o the_o manner_n of_o quarter_a a_o army_n for_o a_o night_n or_o two_o upon_o a_o march_n where_o most_o usual_o no_o enemy_n be_v near_o it_o be_v then_o a_o matter_n of_o no_o such_o consequence_n as_o it_o be_v when_o a_o army_n must_v pitch_v down_o his_o quarter_n or_o entrenchment_n for_o a_o long_a
