all_o this_o but_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o dutch_a company_n have_v as_o little_a right_n to_o this_o as_o to_o give_v over_o the_o whole_a city_n with_o the_o castle_n according_a to_o

and_o as_o they_o can_v by_o force_v of_o arm_n oblige_v the_o king_n to_o take_v in_o again_o the_o english_a and_o re-settle_a they_o in_o bantam_n without_o usurp_v upon_o the_o right_n of_o
