such_o a_o conquest_n be_v palpable_o opposite_a to_o the_o interest_n of_o all_o the_o prince_n and_o state_n of_o europe_n and_o last_o that_o to_o attempt_v a_o french_a conquest_n of_o england_n either_o for_o himself_o or_o king_n james_n be_v not_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o king_n of_o france_n himself_o i_o omit_v show_v a_o french_a conquest_n be_v against_o the_o interest_n of_o king_n

king_n james_n have_v a_o child_n that_o he_o believe_v and_o you_o believe_v too_o notwithstanding_o all_o the_o pain_n you_o take_v to_o be_v think_v to_o believe_v that_o useful_a flame_n of_o
