a Whale with a Rocket
or Wild-fire in his Mouth; which if it ly low, by spouting out, will
make the Water fly about, as if it spouted Fire and Water out of its
Mouth; then by a Train fire, some little Paste-board Guns in the Castle,
which if the Composition of the Train be made of Wild-fire, or Stouple,
will go off by degrees, and coming to a Train of Brimstone, Rosin and
Powder, make the whole frame expire in a terrible blaze.

_A Wheel of Fire-works to run backwards and forwards on the Ground._

Procure a pair of Wheels, being of Light Wood, like that of a Spinning
Wheel, fasten them on an Axel-tree, and place Rockets round them, as
bands are fastened round a Wheel, and so primed at Tail and Head, that
when one Expires the other may take fire, half of them placed with their
Heads and Tails the contrary way to the first: So that when the first
are spent, and the Wheels have run on plain Ground a great way, the
other firing will turn them again, and bring them to the place where
they first set out.

_A Fire that will burn in the Water, or Water-ball._

Sow up a Case of Canvas, like that of a Foot-ball, but lesser, pitch or
glue it over: Then take one Pound of Powder, eight ounces of Roch-alom,
four ounces of live Sulphur, two ounces of Camphire, Linseed-oyl, and
that of Petrolum, each an Ounce and half, an ounce of Oyl of Spike, with
two ounces of Colophonium bruis'd and well mixed together, and stuff the
Ball hard with it, with a Stick pitch or glue it over again, binding it
with Marline on Pitch, on that leave two Vents or Port-fires, set it on
fire, trundle it on the Water, and it will burn under it.

_The exactest Military Discipline for the Exercise of_ Foot _and_ Horse,
_as in Use at this day, at Home and Abroad, in all the Words of
Command_, &c.

To be well disciplin'd and train'd up in Military Affairs, has been the
study and pride of all Warlike Nations, whereby they have acquired to
themselves Fame and Riches, by being able to defend themselves against
Invaders, and gain Conquests Abroad; but above all other, for many
hundred Years past the _English_ have excelled in this, being much
helped by their natural Courage. But since I only at this time intended
to write to the Learner, to train him up in his Exercise, by which means
his own Industry and Experience may lead him forth to greater matters. I
shall not enumerate the many brave Men, who from mean Conditions have
rais'd themselves by Arms,
