the_o high_a and_o most_o advantageous_a craft_n that_o a_o prince_n can_v make_v use_n of_o be_v to_o show_v himself_o beneficent_a religious_a and_o liberal_a towards_o his_o subject_n yet_o this_o in_o so_o moderate_a a_o way_n as_o that_o by_o this_o mean_v he_o give_v they_o not_o occasion_n to_o despise_v he_o as_o happen_v to_o pope_n celestine_n the_o five_o but_o let_v we_o now_o

can_v be_v no_o monarch_n in_o the_o christian_a world_n unless_o he_o have_v his_o dependence_n upon_o the_o pope_n for_o certain_o what_o prince_n soever_o have_v any_o other_o that_o be_v

the_o true_a do_v prevail_v and_o be_v victorious_a when_o they_o have_v once_o take_v root_n in_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n upon_o which_o only_o depend_v both_o their_o tongue_n and_o arm_n which_o be_v the_o only_a instrument_n of_o attain_v dominion_n thus_o we_o see_v that_o julius_n caesar_n when_o any_o be_v create_v consul_n if_o the_o po●tifex_n maximus_n come_v and_o say_v they_o be_v

suspect_v the_o pope_n join_v of_o his_o strength_n to_o that_o of_o his_o antagonist_n and_o so_o for_o this_o reason_n he_o will_v the_o more_o ready_o obey_v the_o pope_n injunction_n as_o i_o have_v declare_v former_o in_o the_o forementioned_a treatise_n and_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n if_o he_o but_o declare_v himself_o for_o and_o stand_v up_o in_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o pope_n

the_o world_n to_o promote_v this_o business_n for_o the_o plain_a truth_n of_o it_o be_v that_o the_o pope_n pick_v quarrel_n sometime_o with_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n for_o no_o other_o reason_n but_o only_o because_o he_o be_v afraid_a that_o in_o case_n he_o shall_v subdue_v the_o king_n of_o france_n and_o the_o prince_n of_o italy_n he_o will_v then_o make_v he_o only_o as_o his_o
