Unde in presenti sermone de vistorioso bello gratia Dei auxiliante tria declaremus salutis documenta, scilicet: 1) Primum quid habere debeat princeps seu belli motor;  2) Secundum quid agere debeat capitaneus seu campiductor; 3) Tertium quid facere debeat miles seu propugnator.

Therefore in this sermon about the victorious war we can illustrate (with the help of God's grace) three useful teachings: 1) The first concerning what the prince, i.e. the one who wages war, should have; 2) The second concerning what the captain, i.e. the one who trains the troops, should do; 3) The third concerning what the soldier, i.e. the one who fight, should do.
