spain_n whereas_o its_o only_a offence_n be_v that_o they_o refuse_v to_o give_v unto_o he_o equal_a honour_n and_o observance_n as_o they_o do_v unto_o his_o highness_n and_o that_o this_o be_v the_o only_a cause_n of_o his_o hatred_n against_o they_o at_o the_o last_o access_n which_o be_v some_o 4._o day_n ago_o he_o make_v a_o long_a invective_n and_o remonstrance_n unto_o the_o king_n which_o he_o have_v put_v into_o write_v in_o spanish_a which_o he_o read_v unto_o i_o correct_v with_o the_o hand_n of_o don_n carlos_n which_o i_o do_v know_v it_o be_v somewhat_o general_a and_o very_o rhetorical_a if_o not_o tragical_a for_o the_o stile_n the_o head_n of_o what_o i_o read_v be_v these_o viz._n 1._o that_o the_o king_n be_v no_o more_o a_o freeman_n at_o this_o time_n then_o king_n john_n of_o france_n when_o he_o be_v prisoner_n in_o england_n or_o king_n francis_n when_o he_o be_v at_o madrid_n be_v besiege_v and_o close_v up_o with_o the_o servant_n and_o vassal_n of_o buckingham_n 2._o that_o the_o ambassador_n know_v very_o well_o and_o be_v inform_v 4._o month_n ago_o that_o his_o majesty_n be_v to_o be_v restrain_v and_o confine_v to_o his_o country_n house_n and_o pastime_n and_o the_o government_n of_o the_o state_n to_o be_v assume_v and_o dispose_v of_o by_o other_o and_o that_o this_o be_v not_o conceal_v by_o buckingham_n follower_n 3._o that_o the_o duke_n have_v reconcile_v himself_o to_o all_o the_o popular_a man_n of_o the_o state_n and_o draw_v they_o forth_o out_o of_o prison_n restraint_n and_o confinement_n to_o alter_v the_o government_n of_o the_o state_n at_o this_o parliament_n as_o oxford_z southampton_a say_v and_o other_o who_o he_o meet_v at_o supper_n and_o ordinary_n to_o strengthen_v his_o popularity_n 4._o that_o the_o duke_n to_o breed_v a_o opinion_n of_o his_o own_o greatness_n and_o to_o make_v the_o king_n grow_v less_o have_v oftentimes_o brag_v open_o in_o parliament_n that_o he_o have_v make_v the_o king_n yield_v to_o this_o and_o that_o which_o be_v pleasure_n unto_o they_o and_o that_o he_o mention_v open_o before_o the_o house_n his_o majesty_n private_a oath_n which_o the_o ambassador_n have_v never_o speak_v of_o to_o any_o creature_n to_o this_o hour_n 5._o that_o these_o kingdom_n be_v not_o now_o govern_v by_o a_o monarch_n but_o by_o a_o triumvir_n whereof_o buckingham_n be_v the_o first_o and_o chief_a the_o prince_n the_o second_o and_o the_o king_n the_o last_o and_o that_o all_o look_v towards_o solemn_a orientem_fw-la 6._o that_o his_o majesty_n shall_v show_v himself_o to_o be_v as_o he_o be_v repute_v the_o old_a and_o wise_a king_n in_o europe_n by_o free_v himself_o from_o this_o captivity_n and_o eminent_a danger_n wherein_o he_o be_v by_o cut_v off_o so_o dangerous_a and_o ungrateful_a a_o affecter_n of_o greatness_n and_o popularity_n as_o the_o duke_n be_v 7._o that_o he_o desire_v his_o majesty_n to_o conceal_v this_o his_o free_a deal_n with_o he_o because_o it_o may_v breed_v he_o much_o peril_n and_o danger_n and_o yet_o if_o it_o be_v any_o way_n available_a for_o his_o service_n to_o reveal_v it_o to_o who_o he_o please_v because_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o sacrifice_v his_o life_n to_o do_v he_o acceptable_a service_n and_o this_o be_v the_o effect_n of_o so_o much_o of_o the_o pen_a speech_n as_o i_o remember_v be_v read_v unto_o i_o out_o of_o the_o spanish_a copy_n his_o majesty_n be_v much_o trouble_v in_o the_o time_n of_o this_o speech_n his_o offer_n to_o the_o king_n for_o the_o restitution_n of_o the_o palatinate_n to_o have_v a_o treaty_n for_o three_o month_n for_o the_o restitution_n and_o that_o money_n be_v now_o give_v in_o spain_n to_o satisfy_v bavaria_n that_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n because_o the_o people_n be_v so_o distrustful_a of_o the_o spaniard_n the_o king_n may_v fortify_v himself_o at_o home_n and_o assist_v the_o hollander_n with_o man_n or_o money_n at_o his_o pleasure_n and_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n shall_v not_o be_v offend_v therewith_o his_o opinion_n of_o our_o prepare_v of_o this_o navy_n it_o be_v a_o design_n of_o the_o duke_n to_o go_v to_o the_o port_n of_o sevil_n and_o there_o to_o burn_v all_o the_o ship_n in_o the_o harbour_n which_o he_o laugh_v at_o speech_n which_o he_o say_v fell_a from_o his_o majesty_n concern_v the_o prince_n 1._o that_o when_o he_o tell_v the_o king_n that_o his_o greatness_n with_o the_o duke_n be_v such_o as_o may_v hinder_v his_o majesty_n from_o take_v a_o course_n to_o repress_v he_o his_o majesty_n reply_v he_o doubt_v nothing_o of_o
