The First Horse
Therefore Being Driuen Into The Water All The Other Horses Of The Company
Followe Him, And So They Passe Through The Riuer.
But the poorer sorte of
common souldiers haue euery man his leather bag or sachell well sown
together, wherin he packs vp all his trinkets, and strongly trussing it vp
hangs it at his horses tayle, and so passeth ouer in maner aforesaid.
Qualiter resistendum sit eis. Cap 18
Nullam astimo prouinciam esse qua per se possit eis resistere: quia de omni
terra potestatis sua solent homines ad bellum congregare. Et siquidem
vicina prouincia non vult eis opem ferre, quam impugnant, delentes illum
cum hominibus, quos ex illa capiunt, contra aliam pugnant. [Sidenote:
[Greek: Harainesis] de bello contra Tartaros gerendo.] Et illos quidem in
acie primos ponunt et si male pugnant, ipsos occidunt. Itaque si Christiani
eis resistere volunt oportet quod Principes ac rectores terrarum in vnum
conueniant, ac de communi consilio eis resistant Habeantque pugnatores
arcus fortes et balistais, quas multum timent sagittasque sufficientes
dolabrum quoque de bono ferro, vel securim cum manubrio longo. [Sidenote:
Ferri temperamentum.] Ferramenta vero sagittarum more Tartarorum, quando
sunt calida, temperare debent in aqua, cum sale mixta, vt fortia sint ad
penetrandum illorum arma. Gladios etiam et lanceas cum vncis habeant, qui
volunt, ad detrahendum illos de sella, de qua facillime cadunt. Habeant et
galeas et arma catera, ad protegendum corpus et equum ab armis et saggitis
eorum, et si qui non ita sunt armati, debent more illorum post alios ire,
et contra ipsos arcubus vel balistis traijcere.
