"take a First Rate and an 80-gun ship and after well battering and basting them for an hour, keep
moving in your force balls and be sure to let these be well seasoned.
Your fire must never slacken for a moment, but must be kept up as brisk as possible during the
whole time. So soon as you perceive your Spaniards to be well stewed abd blended together, you
must throw your own ship on board the two decker, back your spritsail yard to her mizzen mast
then skip to her quarter gallery window, sword in hand and let the rest of your boarders follow as
they can.
The moment that you appear on the 80-gun ship quarter deck the Spaniards will all throw down
their arms and fly. You will then only have to take a hop, skip and jump from your stepping stone
and you will find yourself in the middle of the First Rate quarter deck with all the Dons at your
feet.
Your Olla Podrida may now be considered completely dished and fit to be set before His Majesty.
