in_o her_o power_n to_o go_v through_o withal_o you_o shall_v easy_o judge_v for_o it_o must_v be_v confess_v that_o by_o the_o take_n into_o her_o protection_n the_o king_n and_o the_o faction_n she_o must_v enter_v into_o a_o war_n for_o it_o and_o as_o the_o least_o war_n be_v admit_v can_v be_v maintain_v without_o great_a charge_n so_o such_o a_o war_n may_v grow_v france_n or_o spain_n

we_o or_o it_o rise_v no_o more_o than_o i_o see_v it_o like_a to_o be_v not_o able_a long_o to_o last_v where_o be_v there_o further_a hope_n of_o help_n hereafter_o for_o my_o own_o part_n i_o see_v

wise_a to_o judge_n and_o now_o my_o lord_n i_o will_v show_v you_o such_o reason_n as_o move_v i_o to_o think_v as_o i_o do_v in_o worldly_a cause_n man_n must_v be_v govern_v by_o worldly_a policy_n and_o yet_o so_o to_o frame_v they_o as_o god_n the_o author_n of_o all_o be_v chief_o regard_v from_o he_o we_o have_v receive_v law_n under_o which_o all_o man_n policy_n and_o device_n ought_v to_o

and_o though_o in_o some_o point_n i_o shall_v deal_v like_o a_o worldly_a man_n for_o my_o prince_n yet_o i_o hope_v i_o shall_v not_o forget_v that_o i_o be_o a_o christian_n nor_o my_o duty_n to_o god_n our_o question_n be_v this_o whether_o it_o be_v meet_a for_o our_o sovereign_n to_o maintain_v the_o young_a king_n of_o scotland_n and_o his_o authority_n or_o upon_o composition_n restore_v the_o queen_n of_o scot_n into_o her_o kingdom_n again_o to_o restore_v she_o simple_o we_o be_v not_o of_o opinion_n for_o so_o i_o must_v confess_v a_o great_a oversight_n and_o doubt_v no_o better_a success_n than_o those_o that_o do_v object_n most_o peril_n thereby_o to_o ensue_v but_o if_o there_o be_v any_o assurance_n in_o this_o world_n to_o be_v give_v or_o any_o provision_n by_o worldly_a policy_n to_o be_v have_v then_o my_o lord_n i_o do_v not_o see_v but_o way_n and_o mean_n may_v be_v use_v with_o the_o queen_n of_o scot_n whereby_o her_o majesty_n may_v be_v at_o quiet_a and_o yet_o deliver_v of_o her_o present_a great_a charge_n it_o be_v grant_v and_o fear_v of_o all_o side_n that_o the_o cause_n of_o any_o trouble_n or_o danger_n to_o her_o majesty_n be_v the_o title_n the_o queen_n of_o scotland_n pretend_v to_o the_o crown_n of_o this_o realm_n the_o danger_n we_o fear_v shall_v happen_v by_o she_o be_v not_o for_o that_o she_o be_v queen_n of_o scotland_n but_o that_o other_o the_o great_a prince_n of_o christendom_n do_v favour_n she_o so_o much_o as_o in_o respect_n of_o her_o religion_n they_o will_v in_o all_o cause_n assist_v she_o and_o special_o by_o the_o colour_n of_o her_o title_n seem_v just_o to_o aid_n and_o relieve_v she_o and_o the_o more_o lawful_o take_v she_o and_o her_o cause_n into_o their_o protection_n then_o be_v the_o title_n grant_v to_o be_v the_o chief_a cause_n of_o danger_n to_o our_o sovereign_n if_o it_o be_v so_o whether_o do_v the_o set_n up_o the_o son_n in_o the_o mother_n place_n from_o whence_o his_o title_n must_v be_v claim_v take_v away_o her_o title_n in_o the_o opinion_n of_o those_o prince_n or_o no_o notwithstanding_o she_o remain_v prisoner_n it_o appear_v plain_o no_o for_o there_o be_v continual_a labour_n and_o mean_n make_v from_o the_o great_a prince_n our_o neighbour_n to_o the_o queen_n majesty_n for_o restore_v the_o queen_n of_o scotland_n to_o her_o estate_n and_o government_n otherwise_o they_o protest_v open_a relief_n and_o aid_n for_o she_o then_o though_o her_o majesty_n do_v maintain_v the_o young_a king_n in_o his_o present_a estate_n yet_o it_o appear_v that_o other_o prince_n will_v do_v the_o contrary_a and_o have_v any_o advantage_n how_o far_o they_o will_v proceed_v man_n may_v suspect_v and_o so_o we_o must_v conceive_v that_o as_o long_o as_o this_o difference_n shall_v continue_v by_o the_o maintain_n of_o these_o two_o so_o long_o shall_v the_o same_o cause_n remain_v to_o the_o trouble_n and_o danger_n of_o the_o queen_n majesty_n and_o now_o to_o avoid_v this_o whilst_o she_o live_v what_o better_a mean_n be_v there_o to_o take_v this_o cause_n away_o but_o by_o her_o own_o consent_n to_o renounce_v and_o release_v all_o such_o interest_n or_o title_n as_o she_o claim_v either_o present_o or_o hereafter_o during_o the_o life_n of_o her_o majesty_n and_o the_o heir_n of_o her_o body_n albeit_o here_o may_v two_o question_n be_v move_v first_o whether_o the_o scot_n queen_n will_v renounce_v her_o title_n or_o no_o second_o if_o she_o will_v do_v so_o what_o assurance_n may_v she_o give_v for_o the_o performance_n thereof_o to_o the_o first_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a she_o have_v and_o present_o do_v offer_v whole_o and_o frank_o to_o release_v and_o renounce_v all_o manner_n of_o claim_n and_o title_n whatsoever_o they_o be_v to_o the_o crown_n of_o this_o realm_n during_o her_o majesty_n life_n and_o the_o heir_n of_o her_o body_n and_o for_o the_o second_o she_o do_v likewise_o offer_v all_o

what_o may_v be_v assurance_n for_o here_o be_v the_o difficulty_n for_o that_o objection_n be_v that_o prince_n never_o hold_v promise_n long_o than_o for_o their_o own_o commodity_n and_o what_o security_n soever_o they_o put_v in_o they_o may_v break_v if_o they_o will_n all_o this_o may_v be_v grant_v but_o yet_o that_o we_o must_v grant_v also_o that_o prince_n do_v daily_o treat_v and_o
