well_o know_v method_n of_o manage_v their_o affair_n in_o india_n if_o likewise_o the_o say_a gentleman_n after_o so_o full_a a_o answer_n as_o we_o give_v though_o brief_a and_o pertinent_a to_o

will_v admit_v first_o as_o to_o the_o restitution_n of_o bantam_n we_o say_v all_z the_o late_a king_n of_o glorious_a memory_n demand_v be_v the_o withdraw_n of_o the_o dutch_a force_n from_o bantam_n and_o satisfaction_n for_o our_o damage_n and_o we_o ask_v no_o more_o now_o but_o that_o the_o fort_n build_v with_o the_o english_a money_n may_v be_v leave_v undemolish_v that_o we_o may_v

secure_v to_o we_o and_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o lord_n state_n general_n consent_v to_o the_o withdraw_a their_o force_n as_o aforesaid_a by_o their_o answer_n to_o sir_n john_n chardins_n

lodge_v with_o sir_n john_n chardin_n and_o with_o your_o lordship_n secretary_n and_o for_o the_o gentleman_n to_o say_v the_o lord_n state_n concession_n then_o to_o sir_n john_n chardin_n be_v not_o to_o be_v urge_v now_o because_o they_o have_v since_o make_v article_n with_o that_o poor_a young_a king_n which_o the_o batavian_o have_v so_o much_o abuse_v and_o enslave_v and_o who_o be_v

and_o can_v found_v no_o dominion_n upon_o that_o and_o that_o we_o have_v reply_v nothing_o thereunto_o wherein_o we_o humble_o conceive_v your_o lordship_n will_v find_v the_o gentleman_n under_o a_o great_a mistake_n for_o though_o our_o factory_a and_o the_o fort_n build_v with_o our_o money_n be_v more_o worth_a than_o all_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o building_n in_o bantam_n which_o they_o

with_o his_o father_n leave_n to_o see_v how_o he_o will_v behave_v himself_o and_o as_o such_o a_o king_n and_o the_o son_n of_o a_o father_n always_o obsequious_a to_o his_o late_a majesty_n of_o

not_o only_o probationary_a but_o de_fw-la jure_fw-la and_o that_o the_o father_n be_v subject_a to_o the_o son_n which_o be_v not_o so_o of_o right_n by_o the_o law_n of_o that_o country_n nor_o can_v ever_o be_v prove_v but_o the_o contrary_n most_o certain_o if_o it_o be_v worth_a the_o contest_a then_o we_o say_v that_o young_a king_n have_v violate_v his_o public_a faith_n by_o his_o

it_o be_v true_a as_o the_o dutch_a deputy_n themselves_o have_v constant_o affirm_v that_o it_o be_v not_o the_o batavian_o but_o that_o young_a king_n of_o bantam_n that_o rifle_v our_o house_n tear_v our_o king_n colour_n drive_v we_o from_o our_o ancient_n great_a and_o costly_a habitation_n and_o trade_n while_o at_o the_o same_o time_n his_o own_o ambassador_n be_v treat_v here_o by_o

their_o friend_n to_o request_v they_o to_o depart_v thence_o and_o leave_v we_o the_o fort_n which_o our_o money_n pay_v for_o which_o be_v all_o we_o ask_v of_o they_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o
