if_o i_o do_v not_o add_v weight_n to_o one_o of_o the_o opinion_n i_o will_v then_o say_v that_o before_o the_o institution_n and_o seminary_n of_o janizzar_n 1397._o the_o turk_n receive_v but_o

of_o the_o king_n of_o persia_n and_o other_o 4_o the_o second_o proof_n which_o i_o will_v produce_v to_o fortify_v the_o truth_n of_o my_o proposition_n be_v that_o all_o such_o as_o have_v have_v

the_o hungarian_n in_o like_a sort_n have_v many_o time_n put_v the_o turk_n to_o the_o worse_a by_o their_o fight_n on_o horseback_n 5_o the_o three_o and_o strong_a proof_n of_o my_o assertion_n

but_o by_o a_o ordinary_a general_n for_o there_o be_v always_o about_o the_o king_n by_o election_n or_o necessity_n many_o great_a personage_n equal_a in_o power_n and_o dignity_n and_o some_o

man_n follower_n serve_v also_o to_o increase_v the_o army_n 5_o beside_o these_o consideration_n the_o king_n bring_v evermore_o with_o he_o a_o resolution_n of_o his_o enterprise_n wherein_o a_o
