	Paradoxes of Defence, by George Silver (1599)
		For, to seek for a true defence in an untrue weapon, is to angle on the earth for fish, and to hunt in the sea for hares.
		The fourth mark is, the crosses of their rapiers for true defence of their hands are imperfect, for the true carriage of the guardant fight, without which all fights are imperfect.
		If both thrust together, they are both sped, because their spaces of defence are too wide to answer the time of the hand, and by the swift motion thereof, the eye in that distance is by the same deceived.

		In April 2004, European defence ministers agreed that, by 2007, the EU should be able to use nine 'battle groups', each consisting of 1,500 troops, and deployable within two weeks.
		Investing a bit more of their defence money in space technologies that are useful to the soldier on the ground - intelligence, navigation and telecommunications systems - would greatly increase the effectiveness of European armed forces.
		If the new defence agency does manage to improve European co-operation in armaments, those benefiting would include the defence industry, which would become more competitive; the armed forces, that would get badly needed military equipment at a better price; and the taxpayers, who would get better value for money.

	JNC, Barton-Wright, Self Defence with a cane part 1
		The man with the stick faces the boxer in the back-guard position -- that is to say, with his left foot and arm extended, and his right arm guarding his head.
		If you wish to defend yourself against kicks lower down on the body, you employ exactly the same means of defence, but as it is not necessary to hold the arm so high in describing the circular cuts, it is very much easier to defend yourself.
		The objects of describing circular cuts, by the way, as opposed to a direct cut, is that you are very apt, in the latter case, to miss the kicker's leg, whereas in the former case you cannot fail, not only to deliver your blow, but also to ward off and divert the kick.

	Defence of Poesie (Ponsonby, 1595)
		This etext of Philip Sidney's Defence of Poesie is based on the Scolar Press facsimile of the British Museum's copy (Shelf-mark: C.57.b.38) of the Ponsonby editon of the Defence.
		There is one aspect of the Defence, however, that has been often noted only in passing, and often dismissively, and as I feel it is Sidney's main point I will attempt to throw a little light on it.
		The Defence of Poesie reflects the humanist education which Shrewsbury and Oxford had given to Sidney, and reflects on the rhetorical aims of self-presentation with which an underemployed Elizabethan gentleman would undertake such a work.
