that_o because_o the_o emperor_n favour_v the_o innocent_a in_o defence_n of_o himself_o and_o of_o the_o alliance_n which_o his_o friend_n have_v make_v because_o he_o refuse_v to_o turn_v a_o

therefore_o the_o emperor_n intend_v to_o take_v the_o first_o opportunity_n to_o make_v war_n with_o france_n nay_o france_n itself_o if_o it_o will_v but_o remember_v what_o be_v remonstrate_v in_o
