i_o to_o the_o hurt_n of_o the_o cause_n by_o those_o that_o be_v enemy_n thereunto_o who_o madness_n i_o doubt_n not_o will_v short_o appear_v unto_o all_o man_n and_o i_o trust_v in_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o will_v one_o day_n give_v her_o majesty_n a_o descern_a eye_n to_o judge_v aright_o between_o they_o and_o we_o and_o then_o shall_v it_o appear_v whether_o we_o or_o they_o do_v seek_v

consider_v of_o by_o her_o right_a excellent_a majesty_n namely_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o a_o inconvenient_a season_n when_o our_o fortaine_a enemy_n be_v at_o the_o door_n public_o to_o traduce_v her_o best_a and_o most_o trusty_a snbiect_n as_o enemy_n to_o her_o state_n for_o if_o the_o spainyard_n shall_v hear_v that_o beside_o the_o popish_a faction_n the_o forewarde_a professor_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o england_n be_v but_o her_o majesty_n half_a friend_n issue_n mark_v the_o issue_n what_o will_v not_o the_o hope_n of_o a_o threfold_a discord_n in_o our_o state_n move_v he_o to_o attempt_v i_o do_v therefore_o fear_v that_o many_o of_o the_o forward_a enemy_n of_o reformation_n be_v not_o the_o backwarde_a friend_n that_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n have_v in_o england_n at_o this_o day_n but_o least_o the_o enemy_n shall_v deceive_v himself_o with_o a_o golden_a dream_n i_o be_o to_o make_v it_o know_v unto_o all_o spaniard_n and_o spanish_a practiser_n that_o we_o be_v such_o enemy_n unto_o queen_n elizabeth_n state_n the_o enmity_n which_o the_o favourer_n of_o reformation_n bear_v unto_o her_o majesty_n and_o the_o state_n as_o we_o do_v not_o only_o pray_v day_n and_o night_n for_o the_o state_n of_o her_o kingdom_n and_o her_o person_n but_o also_o we_o be_v ready_a to_o stand_v in_o the_o defence_n of_o her_o royal_a person_n and_o right_n to_o the_o loss_n
