it_o for_o fear_n to_o free_v themselves_o from_o the_o common_a calamity_n and_o danger_n of_o all_o greece_n whereby_o they_o be_v after_o ruin_v neither_o be_o ●_o of_o the_o opinion_n of_o pindarus_n who_o in_o his_o poefy_v exhort_v the_o burgess_n that_o in_o neglect_v all_o other_o thing_n they_o shall_v only_o seek_v for_o peace_n and_o rest_n and_o have_v seek_v for_o peace_n he_o define_v it_o to_o be_v the_o end_n of_o rest_n and_o a_o clear_a light_n but_o when_o as_o he_o think_v to_o have_v speak_v with_o great_a persuasion_n soon_o after_o he_o deliver_v a_o sentence_n the_o most_o scandalous_a and_o incommodious_a thing_n in_o the_o world_n it_o be_v true_a that_o peace_n be_v a_o most_o excellent_a thing_n if_o it_o be_v just_a and_o honest_a yet_o we_o may_v not_o do_v a_o unreasonable_a act_n nor_o suffer_v a_o infamy_n to_o enjoy_v it_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o the_o governor_n and_o chief_a man_n of_o messene_n have_v a_o regard_n to_o their_o private_a profit_n be_v much_o incline_v to_o peace_n which_o be_v not_o reasonable_a wherefore_o as_o often_o the_o time_n be_v propitious_a unto_o they_o according_a to_o their_o desire_n and_o sometime_o dangerous_a they_o fall_v continual_o into_o the_o same_o inconvenience_n so_o as_o always_o have_v the_o same_o resolution_n to_o keep_v the_o peace_n they_o many_o time_n bring_v their_o country_n into_o great_a danger_n whereof_o i_o conceive_v the_o cause_n be_v lacedaemonian_n for_o that_o they_o be_v neighbour_n to_o two_o principal_a city_n of_o greece_n that_o be_v to_o say_v the_o arcadian_n to_o who_o they_o have_v be_v always_o ally_n and_o friend_n and_o the_o lacedaemonian_n to_o who_o they_o have_v be_v continual_a enemy_n yet_o they_o do_v not_o open_o carry_v themselves_o as_o enemy_n to_o the_o lacedaemonian_n or_o friend_n to_o the_o arcadian_n by_o this_o mean_n they_o live_v in_o peace_n when_o as_o the_o say_a city_n make_v war_n betwixt_o

they_o with_o ignominy_n or_o abandon_v the_o country_n with_o their_o wife_n and_o child_n to_o avoid_v servitude_n consider_v that_o they_o be_v not_o able_a with_o their_o own_o force_n to_o resist_v the_o power_n of_o the_o lacedaemonian_n nor_o to_o defend_v themselves_o with_o the_o help_n and_o succour_v of_o the_o arcadian_n who_o friendship_n they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o keep_v the_o which_o have_v often_o happen_v unto_o they_o of_o late_a year_n i_o pray_v unto_o god_n if_o it_o be_v his_o will_n that_o the_o estate_n wherein_o the_o affair_n of_o morea_n now_o stand_v may_v be_v such_o as_o that_o which_o we_o have_v to_o say_v may_v not_o take_v place_n yet_o if_o there_o happen_v any_o alteration_n i_o see_v but_o one_o hope_n for_o the_o messeniens_fw-la and_o
