shall_v receive_v great_a light_n of_o most_o of_o his_o majesty_n proceed_n this_o last_o year_n past_a and_o the_o distress_n and_o extremity_n his_o majesty_n have_v made_v through_o and_o what_o

sufficient_o appear_v by_o the_o woeful_a and_o lamentable_a ruin_n of_o the_o say_a city_n which_o the_o treacherous_a machination_n of_o those_o traitor_n of_o their_o own_o country_n bring_v upon_o the_o same_o and_o be_v mere_o to_o be_v impute_v unto_o they_o for_o in_o all_o this_o they_o have_v prevail_v but_o notwithstanding_o all_o this_o it_o may_v easy_o appear_v and_o by_o those_o

from_o the_o city_n hamburgh_n and_o lubeck_n and_o transport_v the_o same_o to_o magdenbu●gh_v because_o they_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o situation_n of_o that_o place_n have_v not_o opportunity_n and_o can_v not_o furnish_v such_o mean_n notwithstanding_o it_o can_v be_v prove_v easy_o that_o it_o be_v not_o so_o impossible_a for_o they_o as_o their_o excuse_n will_v make_v it_o so_o that_o this_o fault_n in_o the_o very_a first_o beginning_n be_v not_o to_o be_v ascribe_v to_o his_o mai._n nor_o his_o princely_a grace_n the_o administrator_n of_o magdenburgh_n but_o to_o those_o

provision_n and_o all_o warlike_a necessary_n to_o magdenburgh_n and_o promise_v the_o say_a city_n his_o kingly_a aid_n and_o deliverance_n at_o several_a time_n nevertheless_o those_o that_o be_v

in_o his_o right_a sense_n and_o temper_n will_v any_o long_o in_o this_o point_n accuse_v and_o impute_v any_o cause_n unto_o his_o majesty_n it_o be_v well_o know_v not_o only_o to_o the_o whole_a
