which_o feed_v it_o then_o by_o cast_v on_o water_n for_o that_o not_o have_v wherewith_o to_o feed_v it_o it_o consume_v itself_o but_o seek_v to_o vanquish_v it_o by_o the_o contrary_a it_o may_v be_v it_o will_v grow_v more_o violent_a so_o the_o florentine_n can_v not_o quench_v the_o rebellion_n of_o the_o pisans_n before_o they_o have_v take_v away_o the_o matter_n which_o nourish_v that_o fire_n which_o come_v from_o stranger_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v all_o one_o action_n to_o take_v away_o their_o succour_n which_o come_v from_o confederate_n prince_n and_o to_o win_v the_o city_n which_o otherwise_o all_o their_o force_n and_o of_o their_o confederate_n will_v not_o have_v be_v able_a to_o effect_v for_o my_o second_o head_n say_v he_o i_o set_v down_o that_o england_n do_v not_o only_o maintain_v the_o rebellion_n of_o the_o nertherlands_n by_o send_v succour_n but_o also_o by_o her_o countenance_n for_o where_o as_o the_o netherlander_n see_v the_o force_n of_o spain_n convert_v against_o they_o they_o fly_v unto_o england_n as_o to_o a_o sanctuary_n know_v that_o the_o english_a will_v always_o take_v arm_n against_o any_o that_o shall_v invade_v they_o wherein_o they_o imitate_v the_o athenian_n who_o think_v themselves_o safe_a as_o long_o as_o the_o olynthian_o stand_v who_o be_v subdue_v they_o know_v not_o how_o they_o shall_v keep_v philip_n out_o of_o

support_n which_o have_v maintain_v they_o in_o their_o insolence_n my_o three_o reason_n say_v he_o be_v that_o the_o burden_n of_o so_o long_a a_o war_n have_v so_o waste_v the_o spirit_n and_o faculty_n of_o the_o netherlander_n as_o they_o scarce_o have_v any_o pulse_n remain_v they_o have_v not_o only_o be_v cruel_a butcher_n of_o their_o own_o life_n but_o tyrant_n over_o their_o good_n tax_v themselves_o at_o above_o forty_o in_o the_o hundred_o beside_o have_v lose_v so_o many_o year_n profit_n their_o land_n be_v untilled_a and_o their_o trade_n of_o merchandise_n fail_v which_o

maintain_v this_o rebellion_n want_v life_n and_o spirit_n which_o england_n give_v it_o whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o conquest_n of_o the_o low_a country_n follow_v that_o of_o england_n as_o the_o shadow_n do_v the_o body_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o must_v not_o think_v the_o netherlands_o be_v win_v england_n will_v be_v so_o easy_o vanquish_v the_o which_o be_v a_o rich_a and_o a_o mighty_a kingdom_n seek_v no_o support_n from_o any_o other_o but_o rely_v upon_o she_o own_o force_n the_o which_o they_o will_v oppose_v against_o their_o fortaine_a enemy_n if_o the_o netherlands_o shall_v fall_v absolute_o into_o the_o spaniard_n hand_n standing_z as_o they_o do_v now_o wherefore_o england_n in_o her_o defence_n depend_v only_o of_o her_o own_o power_n and_o if_o
