present_a at_o the_o divertisement_n of_o these_o two_o great_a prince_n and_o in_o familiar_a conversation_n one_o may_v best_o discover_v a_o man_n and_o know_v his_o way_n i_o know_v again_o with_o

if_o the_o religion_n of_o the_o king_n of_o england_n have_v be_v no_o more_o than_o formality_n and_o countenance_n the_o advantage_n he_o may_v have_v hope_v for_o in_o his_o brother_n change_n
