to_o cast_v themselves_o into_o the_o arm_n of_o the_o french_a king_n and_o submit_v themselves_o to_o his_o domination_n 2._o whether_o they_o can_v deny_v they_o know_v the_o joint_a proposal_n tender_v to_o the_o dutch_a shall_v not_o be_v grant_v since_o the_o french_a demand_n alone_o have_v be_v unanimous_o reject_v and_o in_o that_o case_n how_o agreeable_a it_o be_v to_o the_o interest_n of_o england_n to_o make_v it_o impossible_a for_o the_o dutch_a to_o give_v his_o majesty_n any_o satisfaction_n 3._o whether_o they_o have_v not_o receive_v as_o well_o from_o the_o

far_o those_o that_o be_v join_v in_o commission_n with_o they_o do_v concur_v with_o they_o in_o their_o judgement_n and_o whether_o all_o those_o consideration_n with_o man_n other_o be_v not_o

still_o before_o his_o master_n as_o well_o as_o to_o set_v in_o the_o first_o place_n the_o french_a demand_n before_o those_o of_o their_o majesty_n as_o all_o this_o be_v do_v in_o the_o copy_n of_o the_o agreement_n they_o have_v make_v and_o of_o both_o king_n pretension_n which_o they_o send_v together_o to_o the_o prince_n of_o orange_n by_o sir_n gabriel_n silvius_n and_o to_o which_o we_o may_v appeal_v if_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o be_v doubt_v 8._o and_o last_o how_o far_o their_o instruction_n will_v justify_v their_o stand_n in_o the_o behalf_n of_o the_o french_a upon_o a_o
