the_o turk_n to_o get_v some_o succour_n from_o they_o and_o indeed_o they_o send_v a_o great_a fleet_n and_o army_n to_o help_v he_o under_o the_o command_n of_o their_o admiral_n and_o general_n barbarossa_n who_o land_a in_o france_n and_o do_v in_o provence_n and_o the_o county_n of_o nyssa_n great_a mischief_n more_o a_o great_a deal_n than_o to_o the_o emperor_n subject_n du_fw-mi

so_o that_o it_o be_v take_v by_o francis_n according_o but_o it_o may_v be_v some_o will_v say_v though_o francis_n the_o it_v take_v that_o oath_n it_o be_v not_o certain_a that_o lewis_n the_o

be_v no_o wonder_n for_o such_o thing_n be_v careful_o keep_v secret_a during_o his_o life_n and_o shall_v not_o be_v know_v before_o his_o death_n methinks_v there_o be_v little_a reason_n to_o doubt_n he_o have_v do_v it_o also_o or_o some_o other_o worse_o and_o this_o for_o the_o follow_a reason_n one_a it_o be_v the_o constant_a practice_n of_o all_o the_o prince_n and_o state_n when_o they_o have_v once_o prevail_v upon_o another_o state_n to_o treat_v a_o alliance_n with_o they_o upon_o term_n and_o form_n and_o expression_n favourable_a advantageous_a and_o honourable_a to_o their_o own_o party_n never_o to_o change_v any_o thing_n of_o they_o in_o the_o follow_a treaty_n or_o alliance_n with_o the_o same_o unless_o there_o have_v be_v a_o great_a change_n make_v also_o in_o the_o respective_a fortune_n of_o those_o state_n and_o that_o which_o be_v the_o less_o potent_a then_o be_v become_v the_o more_o powerful_a or_o predominant_a we_o do_v not_o see_v there_o have_v be_v any_o such_o alteration_n or_o mutation_n make_v among_o those_o two_o great_a nation_n the_o french_a and_o the_o turk_n and_o this_o have_v certain_o still_o as_o great_a advantage_n now_o over_o lewis_n the_o xivth_o as_o she_o have_v over_o francis_n the_o it_v when_o he_o take_v this_o oath_n 2._o francis_n the_o it_v be_v certain_o as_o appear_v by_o his_o history_n far_o less_o ambitious_a and_o a_o better_a and_o great_a man_n in_o all_o respect_n than_o lewis_n the_o xivth_o ever_o be_v 3._o there_o must_v needs_o be_v a_o horrid_a engagement_n between_o they_o against_o the_o christian_n since_o we_o see_v every_o year_n what_o effort_n the_o french_a king_n make_v against_o germany_n in_o the_o turk_n behalf_n and_o that_o the_o turk_n persist_v in_o continue_v this_o war_n so_o extreme_o ruinous_a to_o they_o against_o their_o custom_n but_o however_o it_o be_v it_o can_v be_v easy_o prove_v he_o have_v do_v much_o worse_o in_o that_o respect_n than_o his_o predecessor_n engage_v to_o do_v so_o that_o we_o can_v do_v he_o any_o injury_n in_o think_v he_o have_v take_v the_o same_o oath_n or_o a_o worse_a one_o
