for_o the_o same_o to_o our_o no_o small_a dishonour_n and_o our_o shame_n which_o daily_o more_o and_o more_o will_v still_o increase_v unless_o that_o we_o some_o remedy_n procure_v for_o whereas_o we_o do_v seek_v for_o love_n and_o peace_n and_o all_o our_o wrong_n will_v patient_o endure_v they_o offer_v war_n and_o flat_o we_o deny_v a_o small_a request_n to_o grant_v or_o satisfy_v and_o for_o the_o harm_n that_o they_o to_o we_o have_v do_v they_o say_v they_o will_v no_o other_o order_n take_v but_o for_o amends_o our_o country_n t'ouer_v run_v and_o bloody_a war_n on_o we_o and_o we_o to_o make_v which_o their_o desire_n increase_v our_o despite_n but_o will_v to_o god_n their_o heart_n be_v so_o contrite_a to_o cease_v all_o strife_n and_o friendly_a to_o accord_v that_o all_o the_o mischief_n and_o the_o cruelty_n that_o bloody_a war_n do_v common_o afford_v may_v be_v convert_v into_o amity_n but_o they_o alas_o be_v so_o possess_v with_o pride_n that_o they_o

and_o help_v each_o other_o when_o they_o stand_v in_o need_n my_o counsel_n therefore_o be_v that_o we_o agree_v and_o join_v in_o one_o consent_n for_o to_o withstand_v the_o grecian_n and_o the_o more_o assure_v to_o be_v before_o that_o we_o begin_v to_o take_v it_o in_o hand_n i_o dare_v affirm_v our_o strength_n and_o force_n far_o exceed_v the_o grecian_n power_n what_o ere_o they_o be_v our_o skill_n in_o arm_n be_v great_a as_o well_o you_o know_v our_o knight_n they_o be_v most_o valorous_a and_o stout_a great_a store_n of_o horse_n and_o footman_n we_o can_v show_v well_o arm_v for_o war_n and_o this_o we_o need_v not_o doubt_n but_o that_o our_o town_n be_v most_o invincible_a and_o for_o our_o foe_n to_o win_v it_o impossible_a therefore_o i_o do_v intend_v by_o your_o consent_n with_o all_o the_o speed_n i_o can_v for_o to_o prepare_v a_o navy_n well_o appoint_v to_o be_v send_v into_o the_o grecian_a land_n which_o shall_v not_o

we_o endure_v our_o wrong_n forepast_a without_o contention_n and_o not_o unto_o ourselves_o more_o hurt_v procure_v for_o it_o be_v a_o point_n of_o great_a discretion_n think_v not_o my_o lord_n i_o speak_v thus_o much_o for_o fear_n or_o cowardice_n but_o yet_o i_o say_v that_o it_o be_v great_a folly_n to_o commit_v our_o happiness_n sith_o that_o we_o now_o ●ive_a in_o security_n to_o

your_o grace_n to_o hear_v and_o give_v i_o leave_v to_o speak_v then_o must_v i_o say_v and_o will_v it_o prove_v you_o have_v no_o cause_n to_o fear_v nor_o will_v i_o wish_v you_o long_o the_o time_n delay_n with_o brave_a and_o valiant_a heart_n to_o undertake_v upon_o the_o greek_n asodaine_a war_n to_o make_v therewith_o their_o pride_n and_o malice_n to_o confound_v sith_o that_o you_o

most_o wide_o be_v able_a all_o their_o proud_a assault_n to_o abide_v and_o which_o be_v more_o invincible_a to_o win_v beside_o all_o this_o great_a prince_n many_o aone_n our_o friend_n so_o be_v this_o war_n with_o they_o begin_v will_n we_o assist_v to_o their_o destruction_n let_v they_o therefore_o be_v never_o so_o bold_a and_o stout_a i_o see_v no_o cause_n at_o all_o why_o we_o shall_v
