that_o the_o netherlander_n must_v be_v ensnare_v by_o a_o great_a deceit_n and_o hypocrisy_n like_o as_o in_o navigation_n it_o be_v a_o point_n of_o knowledge_n to_o see_v before_o hand_n the_o storm_n that_o although_o man_n can_v attain_v the_o haven_n yet_o if_o alter_v the_o course_n you_o may_v attain_v thereinto_o than_o it_o be_v a_o foolish_a deed_n to_o keep_v that_o course_n which_o before_o be_v take_v with_o great_a peril_n and_o danger_n rather_o than_o that_o you_o alter_v the_o same_o may_v attain_v to_o the_o wish_n for_o haven_n for_o so_o be_v his_o opinion_n that_o the_o first_o rage_v and_o madness_n of_o the_o spaniard_n must_v be_v somewhat_o mollify_v and_o now_o must_v go_v to_o work_v with_o dissemble_a faith_n and_o promise_n that_o don_n john_n who_o have_v a_o incredible_a moderation_n and_o a_o indifferent_a mind_n betwixt_o ambition_n and_o cruelty_n may_v very_o fortunate_o effect_v the_o same_o he_o advise_v by_o his_o own_o and_o his_o master_n counsel_n that_o england_n shall_v be_v first_o surprise_v and_o conquer_v by_o war_n and_o then_o it_o will_v be_v easy_a to_o surprise_v the_o netherlandish_a province_n in_o those_o letter_n which_o don_n john_n send_v unto_o anthony_n perez_n his_o special_a friend_n he_o give_v he_o to_o understand_v that_o he_o be_v of_o such_o a_o nature_n and_o condition_n that_o he_o can_v not_o live_v still_o in_o idleness_n nor_o can_v away_o with_o the_o law_n of_o peace_n and_o that_o his_o mind_n and_o conscience_n can_v not_o endure_v that_o he_o shall_v whole_o submit_v himself_o to_o the_o privilege_n and_o law_n of_o the_o netherlander_n but_o that_o he_o far_o rather_o by_o force_n of_o arm_n will_v obtain_v and_o effect_v for_o the_o king_n a_o whole_a absolute_a and_o

the_o same_o by_o so_o many_o and_o clear_a proof_n do_v appear_v then_o remember_v by_o the_o eternal_a god_n remember_v i_o say_v what_o reason_n he_o use_v to_o the_o ambassador_n of_o our_o

repent_v he_o that_o be_v until_o he_o by_o his_o sweet_a entice_n and_o hypocritical_a lenity_n have_v rock_v the_o state_n asleep_a at_o the_o last_o may_v destroy_v they_o and_o with_o they_o suppress_v the_o whole_a reipublick_n for_o after_o the_o death_n of_o john_n philip_n show_v very_o manifest_o that_o that_o same_o in_o very_a deed_n shall_v have_v befall_v we_o like_a as_o he_o at_o mechlen_n by_o the_o lord_n of_o selles_n certify_v and_o give_v they_o to_o understand_v that_o he_o will_v break_v the_o law_n of_o the_o peace_n and_o that_o he_o no_o long_o will_v be_v

of_o this_o their_o chief_n or_o governor_n yea_o thou_o thyself_o john_n if_o thou_o will_v but_o enter_v into_o thy_o own_o heart_n and_o conscience_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o deny_v the_o
