machiavelli_n for_o confirmation_n of_o his_o doctrine_n allege_v the_o example_n of_o the_o emperor_n severus_n who_o indeed_o be_v a_o man_n very_o cruel_a and_o sanguinarie_a yet_o reign_v

have_v he_o in_o himself_o many_o goodly_a and_o laudable_a virtue_n as_o we_o have_v in_o other_o place_n rehearse_v so_o that_o as_o his_o cruelty_n make_v he_o much_o hate_v his_o other_o virtue_n wrought_v some_o mitigation_n thereof_o last_o he_o make_v no_o other_o end_n than_o other_o cruel_a prince_n for_o he_o die_v with_o sorrow_n as_o say_v herodian_a who_o be_v in_o his_o time_n for_o that_o he_o see_v his_o child_n 3._o dion_z in_o seve_n herod_n lib._n 3._o such_o mortal_a enemy_n one_o against_o another_o and_o that_o bassianus_n the_o elder_a have_v enterprise_v to_o kill_v his_o father_n who_o yet_o do_v pardon_v he_o but_o bassianus_n pardon_v not_o his_o father_n physician_n which_o will_v nor_o obey_v he_o when_o he_o command_v they_o to_o poison_v his_o sick_a father_n for_o as_o soon_o as_o his_o father_n be_v dead_a he_o hang_v and_o strangle_v they_o all_o herein_o also_o god_n punish_v the_o cruelty_n of_o severus_n that_o have_v exercise_v all_o these_o cruelty_n and_o slaughter_n well_o to_o establish_v the_o empire_n in_o his_o house_n he_o be_v frustrate_v of_o his_o intention_n for_o of_o those_o two_o son_n bassianus_n and_o geta_n one_o
