i_o shall_v now_o only_o add_v one_o instance_n or_o two_o which_o will_v declare_v the_o demeanour_n of_o the_o dutch_a in_o japan_n and_o then_o conclude_v with_o a_o brief_a rehearsal_n and_o bare_a recapitulation_n of_o some_o injury_n and_o abuse_n they_o have_v do_v to_o the_o english_a in_o the_o year_n 1640._o the_o dutch_a make_v their_o address_n to_o caesar_n the_o chief_a governor_n of_o the_o japonian_o and_o with_o all_o possible_a acknowledgement_n submissive_o petition_v he_o to_o grant_v they_o the_o privilege_n of_o build_v a_o house_n wherein_o they_o pretend_v to_o dispose_v of_o and_o lay_v up_o their_o merchandise_n and_o also_o to_o have_v the_o governor_n and_o member_n of_o their_o society_n inhabit_v which_o be_v once_o obtain_v they_o not_o only_o raise_v up_o a_o sumptuous_a and_o beautiful_a build_n for_o habitation_n but_o so_o strong_o fortify_v it_o and_o in_o so_o convenient_a a_o situation_n that_o they_o seem_v to_o out_o brave_a and_o threaten_v the_o japonian_o and_o will_v they_o will_v they_o to_o maintain_v their_o residence_n there_o so_o that_o now_o they_o have_v confidence_n enough_o to_o monopolise_v all_o ware_n and_o put_v they_o off_o to_o the_o japonian_o at_o what_o rate_n they_o list_v but_o their_o subtle_a contrivance_n be_v bring_v under_o suspicion_n be_v quick_o discover_v and_o their_o tower_a ambition_n unexpected_o lay_v in_o the_o dust_n for_o the_o governor_n forthwith_o send_v to_o they_o a_o great_a band_n of_o soldier_n with_o a_o command_n that_o they_o shall_v either_o demolish_v their_o new_a petty_a babel_n or_o be_v immediate_o put_v all_o to_o the_o sword_n but_o self-interest_n soon_o prompt_v they_o what_o they_o shall_v do_v therefore_o though_o unwilling_o yet_o with_o a_o seem_a cheerfulness_n they_o obey_v the_o governor_n gracious_a command_n and_o most_o busy_o ply_v they_o to_o their_o new_a impose_v task_n lay_v waist_n that_o which_o they_o do_v so_o much_o pride_n themselves_o in_o and_o be_v at_o so_o great_a charge_n to_o get_v accomplish_v and_o ever_o after_o their_o action_n be_v more_o narrow_o observe_v and_o the_o japonian_o claim_v the_o privilege_n of_o pay_v they_o in_o their_o own_o coin_n to_o wit_n monopolise_v all_o merchandise_n and_o impose_v it_o on_o they_o at_o their_o own_o price_n thus_o you_o see_v the_o just_a recompense_n of_o ingratitude_n but_o further_a the_o dutch_a seem_v to_o be_v a_o people_n whole_o addict_v to_o secular_a interest_n choose_v rather_o to_o enjoy_v their_o life_n and_o profit_n than_o hazard_n either_o in_o propagate_a the_o christian_a religion_n for_o the_o law_n of_o the_o japonian_a kingdom_n be_v very_o strict_a and_o severe_a against_o christian_n whereby_o they_o be_v frequent_o persecute_v and_o meet_v with_o grievous_a and_o lamentable_a torture_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v deny_v their_o faith_n the_o dutch_a have_v not_o be_v observe_v at_o all_o to_o

their_o trade_n and_o be_v deprive_v of_o their_o so_o sweet_a and_o delicious_a worldly_a gain_n and_o thus_o you_o have_v a_o brief_a account_n of_o the_o deportment_n of_o the_o dutch_a in_o foreign_a part_n which_o sufficient_o demonstrate_v their_o ingratitude_n and_o injustice_n to_o those_o they_o have_v have_v commerce_n with_o but_o their_o indignity_n to_o the_o english_a exceed_v
