§. 9. Of drawing more to the Artillery Garden.
Give me leave to extend this Encouragement to such as are not yet of your Fraternity, nor have yet given their names to be of your Society, I mean such as are in the flour of their age, of sufficient stature and strength, well able to afford time and means for Artillery exercises, to offer themselves readily and cheerfully to this honourable service. The time which may be, and usually is spared from your particular callings, cannot be better spent, (exceptis semper excipiendis, except duties of piety and charity, whereby all other things are seasoned and sanctified) I say vacant hours cannot better be spent then in the Artillery Garden, and in the practice of Martial discipline there exercised, as shall *afterwards be more fully cleared.
