the_o french_a king_n new_a declaration_n translate_v from_o the_o original_a at_o paris_n be_v his_o public_a manifesto_n in_o vindication_n of_o himself_o and_o the_o late_a king_n james_n from_o be_v any_o way_n aid_v assist_v or_o privy_a to_o the_o late_a intend_a assassination_n of_o king_n william_n whereas_o by_o our_o advice_n from_o england_n we_o have_v receive_v information_n of_o a_o intend_a assassination_n design_v upon_o the_o person_n of_o the_o prince_n of_o orange_n and_o that_o the_o false_a and_o scandalous_a suggestion_n of_o our_o enemy_n have_v industrious_o endeavour_v to_o insinuate_v that_o ourselves_o and_o our_o dear_a brother_n james_n king_n of_o great_a britain_n have_v be_v aider_n and_o abettor_n to_o the_o say_a assassination_n at_o which_o we_o be_v the_o less_o surprise_v as_o be_v but_o high_o sensible_a that_o the_o lustre_n of_o the_o great_a be_v but_o too_o often_o shade_v by_o slander_n and_o detraction_n from_o the_o mouth_n of_o malice_n and_o envy_n nevertheless_o to_o dispel_v that_o empty_a cloud_n we_o think_v ourselves_o oblige_v in_o right_a to_o our_o traduce_v and_o injure_v honour_n to_o publish_v this_o follow_a declaration_n and_o that_o the_o guarrantee_n of_o our_o royal_a word_n our_o present_a only_a vindication_n may_v carry_v its_o just_a weight_n and_o obviate_v all_o that_o spite_n or_o obstinancy_n may_v or_o shall_v object_v against_o that_o unquestioned_a authority_n we_o think_v fit_a first_o to_o remonstrate_v what_o constant_a veneration_n we_o have_v ever_o pay_v to_o our_o vow_n and_o protestation_n such_o as_o our_o public_a oath_n against_o infringe_v the_o edict_n of_o nants_n and_o our_o no_o less_o public_a sacrament_n at_o the_o high-altar_n against_o all_o invasion_n of_o flanders_n as_o our_o constant_a well-known_a tenderness_n therefore_o for_o the_o peace_n of_o christendom_n abroad_o and_o the_o conservation_n of_o the_o right_n religion_n and_o liberty_n of_o our_o protestant_a subject_n at_o home_n both_o so_o swear_v and_o so_o perform_v stand_v the_o ever_o live_v monument_n of_o our_o inviolable_a faith_n so_o we_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o fear_v that_o the_o misdoubt_n of_o our_o foe_n or_o the_o jealousy_n of_o europe_n with_o any_o shadow_n of_o justice_n shall_v dipute_v the_o honour_n and_o integrity_n of_o our_o present_a royal_a word_n on_o this_o humble_a occasion_n when_o in_o a_o more_o important_a cause_n under_o those_o high_a forementioned_a obligation_n of_o oath_n and_o sacrament_n we_o have_v so_o glorious_o signalise_v our_o unshake_a veracity_n direct_o and_o indirect_o we_o therefore_o declare_v we_o be_v those_o utter_a stranger_n to_o this_o murderous_a design_n as_o indeed_o bloodshed_n have_v always_o be_v our_o great_a detestation_n that_o first_o to_o right_v our_o unhappy_a brother_n of_o england_n who_o it_o more_o near_o touch_v our_o greatness_n and_o reputation_n be_v above_o the_o

contrary_a he_o dare_v in_o so_o vile_a a_o condescension_n no_o more_o violate_v his_o royal_a honour_n than_o he_o dare_v his_o royal_a faith_n even_o the_o very_a breach_n of_o a_o coronation_n

clear_v both_o our_o royal_a name_n from_o that_o hideous_a imputation_n it_o be_v not_o only_o inconsistent_a both_o with_o the_o character_n and_o profession_n of_o the_o great_a lewis_n and_o
