as_o physician_n do_v of_o innocent_a remedy_n that_o never_o hurt_v his_o majesty_n be_v resolve_v at_o any_o rate_n to_o ride_v himself_o of_o this_o affair_n of_o the_o valtoline_n provide_v his_o

concern_v themselves_o in_o favour_n of_o the_o great_a duke_n make_v he_o act_v with_o so_o much_o reservation_n upon_o this_o occasion_n but_o then_o it_o be_v as_o plain_a that_o there_o be_v other_o general_a interest_n that_o more_o near_o regard_v the_o common_a good_a of_o the_o church_n and_o consequent_o that_o of_o the_o holy_a chair_n which_o ought_v to_o incline_v his_o holiness_n to_o put_v a_o end_n to_o this_o affair_n it_o be_v certain_a that_o thing_n be_v sometime_o carry_v far_o than_o one_o can_v have_v imagine_v at_o their_o first_o start_v up_o and_o that_o if_o

again_o i_o can_v assure_v you_o his_o majesty_n be_v so_o strict_a a_o observer_n of_o his_o word_n that_o when_o he_o have_v once_o give_v his_o promise_n nothing_o in_o the_o world_n can_v induce_v he_o to_o violate_v it_o from_o this_o affair_n i_o pass_v to_o the_o dispensation_n for_o the_o match_n with_o england_n and_o must_v tell_v you_o the_o king_n be_v extreme_o surprise_v at_o some_o
