seven_o month_n time_n for_o we_o be_v so_o long_o in_o prepare_v and_o have_v make_v his_o majesty_n know_v that_o our_o land_n in_o guiana_n will_v draw_v after_o it_o a_o breach_n of_o peace_n i_o

as_o it_o may_v persuade_v the_o leave_n of_o the_o garrison_n then_o to_o drive_v the_o spaniard_n thence_o but_o to_o have_v burn_v be_v never_o my_o intent_n neither_o can_v they_o give_v i_o any_o

their_o boat_n yet_o they_o offend_v their_o latter_a direction_n and_o do_v land_n between_o the_o town_n and_o the_o mine_n and_o that_o the_o spaniard_n without_o any_o manner_n of_o parley_n set_v

before_o they_o know_v where_o they_o be_v so_o that_o if_o any_o peace_n have_v be_v in_o those_o part_n the_o spaniard_n first_o break_v the_o peace_n and_o make_v the_o first_o slaughter_n for_o
