Examples
1. I have organized the Veliti, that is the light armed, to enkindle the battle, as they (the Romans did).
2. And, therefore, they varied the calls according as they wanted to enkindle or quiet, or firm the spirits of men.
3. And when you instruct them to fight against an enemy they can see, show them how the battle is enkindled, where they have to retire without being repulsed, who has to take their places, what signs, what (bugle) calls, and what voice they should obey, and to practice them so with Companies and by mock attacks, that they have the desire for real battle.
4. Placing, therefore, our pikes in the front and the shields (swordsmen) behind, they manage to resist the cavalry, and in enkindling the battle, lay open and attack the infantry: but when the battle closes in, and they become useless, the shields and swords take their place, who are able to take care of themselves in every strait.
