let_v it_o be_v agree_v upon_o betwixt_o he_o and_o the_o pope_n that_o what_o prince_n soever_o shall_v refuse_v to_o submit_v hereto_o they_o shall_v be_v deprive_v by_o their_o authority_n for_o if_o some_o of_o the_o prince_n of_o italy_n or_o indeed_o if_o all_o of_o they_o shall_v fall_v off_o from_o the_o pope_n the_o king_n of_o spain_n who_o be_v the_o vindicater_v of_o the_o pontifical_a authority_n be_v assist_v by_o croisado_n and_o other_o aide_n from_o the_o pope_n will_v by_o degree_n ruin_v they_o all_o one_o after_o another_o or_o else_o bring_v they_o in_o

and_o he_o shall_v withal_o make_v himself_o ma●ter_o of_o the_o prince_n of_o italy_n dominion_n and_o this_o may_v possible_o hereafter_o come_v to_o pass_v although_o as_o matter_n now_o stand_v
