pikes, and extraordinarie Veliti of the aidyng mayne
battailes. Their headdes or their counstables
may take those lodgynges, that shal seeme unto them
moste commodious, on the parte towardes the trenche.
The Artillerie, I woulde dispose throughoute all the
Campe, a longe the banke of the Trenche: and
in all the other space that shoulde remaine towardes
weste, I woulde lodge all the unarmed, and place all
the impedimentes of the Campe. And it is to be
understoode, that under this name of impedimentes
(as you know) the antiquitee mente all the same trayne,
and all those thynges, which are necessarie for an
armie, besides the souldiours: as are Carpenters,
Smithes, Masons, Ingeners, Bombardiers, althoughe that
those might be counted in the numbre of the armed,
herdemen with their herdes of motons and beeves whiche
for victuallyng of the armie, are requiset: and
moreover maisters of all sciences, together with publicke
carriages of the publicke munition, whiche pertaine
as well to victuallyng, as to armynge. Nor I
would not distinguishe these lodginges perticularly,
only I would marke out the waies which should not be
occupied of them: then the other spaces, that
betweene the waies shall remaine, whiche shall be
fower, I woulde appoincte theim generally for all
the saied impedimentes, that is one for the herdemen,
the other for artificers and craftes men, the thirde
for publicke carriages of victuals, the fowerth for
the municion of armour and weapons. The waies
whiche I woulde shoulde be lefte without ocupiyng them,
shal be the market waie, the head waye, and more over
a waie that shoulde be called the midde waye, whiche
should goe from Northe to Southe, and should passe
thoroughe the middest of the market waie, whiche from
the weste parte, shoulde serve for the same purpose
that the overthwarte way doeth on the east parte.
And besides this, a waye whiche shall goe aboute on
the hinder parte, alonge the lodgynges of the Pikes
and extraordinarie Veliti, and all these wayes shall
be twoo and tweentie vardes and a halfe broade.
And the Artilerie, I woulde place a longe the Trenche
of the Campe, rounde aboute the same.
BAPTISTE. I confesse that I understand not, nor I beleeve that also to saye so, is any shame unto me, this beyng not my exercise: notwithstandyng, this order pleaseth me muche: onely I woulde that you shoulde declare me these doubtes: The one, whie you make the waie, and the spaces aboute so large. The other, that troubleth me more, is these spaces, whiche you apoincte oute for the lodgynges, howe they ought to be used.
[Sidenote: The Campe ought to be all waies of one facion.]
