we_o have_v feel_v the_o effect_n of_o it_o which_o our_o enemy_n be_v sure_a to_o improve_v to_o our_o dishonour_n and_o danger_n as_o if_o we_o have_v deliver_v up_o the_o wealth_n and_o glory_n of_o england_n to_o holland_n instead_o of_o make_v that_o country_n a_o handmaid_n to_o her_o gteatness_n and_o true_o it_o be_v a_o scurvy_a dilemma_n that_o we_o be_v bring_v into_o that_o we_o

for_o a_o worse_a purpose_n viz_o a_o unreasonable_a greatness_n and_o it_o fall_v pat_o with_o the_o dutch_a interest_n for_o with_o they_o it_o be_v a_o maxim_n the_o less_o we_o be_v free_a the_o

will_v only_o be_v of_o our_o side_n as_o long_o as_o we_o let_v they_o go_v away_o with_o our_o trade_n but_o the_o hour_n we_o show_v we_o understand_v they_o we_o may_v depend_v upon_o it_o they_o
