will_v have_v come_v withal_o the_o greatness_n and_o variety_n as_o they_o expect_v from_o so_o great_a a_o king_n and_o see_v he_o otherwise_o they_o begin_v to_o despise_v he_o and_o strange_o to_o scoff_n the_o french_a man_n where_o they_o conceive_v such_o hatred_n against_o the_o spaniard_n that_o they_o can_v never_o since_o forget_v this_o disgrace_n and_o affront_v and_o if_o we_o will_v say_v that_o the_o devil_n at_o this_o meeting_n ground_v the_o enmity_n and_o antipathy_n which_o now_o a_o day_n reign_v we_o shall_v not_o say_v amiss_o see_v a_o far_o lesser_a ground_n than_o this_o will_v serve_v his_o turn_n to_o all_o that_o be_v say_v before_o may_v be_v add_v a_o great_a motive_n which_o these_o two_o nation_n have_v have_v to_o contemn_v and_o abhor_v one_o another_o which_o be_v that_o in_o time_n past_a there_o come_v not_o out_o of_o france_n into_o spain_n any_o people_n of_o sort_n and_o note_n but_o only_o poor_a beggarly_a and_o needy_a people_n of_o the_o frontier_n as_o guascon_n biernois_n and_o other_o who_o go_v as_o they_o do_v to_o this_o day_n in_o white_a round_a cap_n like_o a_o trencher_n upon_o their_o head_n bare_a legged_a with_o wooden_a shoe_n which_o they_o call_v esclop_n upon_o their_o foot_n these_o with_o a_o base_a kind_n of_o avarice_n will_v put_v themselves_o to_o any_o base_a office_n as_o keep_v of_o cow_n and_o hog_n to_o sweep_v chimney_n or_o the_o like_a and_o though_o in_o their_o eat_n they_o be_v sober_a enough_o for_o with_o a_o onion_n or_o a_o head_n of_o garlic_n and_o a_o piece_n of_o bread_n they_o will_v pass_v the_o whole_a day_n yet_o in_o their_o drink_n they_o be_v unreasonable_a and_o all_o their_o gain_n go_v in_o wine_n which_o be_v strong_a and_o heady_a presen●ly_o make_v they_o drink_v so_o that_o for_o the_o most_o part_n of_o the_o day_n they_o go_v reel_v and_o fall_v about_o the_o street_n to_o the_o great_a scandal_n of_o the_o spaniard_n among_o who_o there_o be_v no_o great_a infamy_n or_o dishonour_n then_o to_o be_v drink_v wherefore_o the_o spaniard_n who_o see_v no_o other_o french_a man_n but_o these_o and_o think_v that_o all_o the_o rest_n have_v be_v like_o they_o do_v abhor_v they_o and_o conceive_v much_o enmity_n against_o they_o and_o contempt_n of_o they_o the_o same_o occasion_n have_v the_o french_a for_o very_o few_o or_o no_o spaniard_n of_o fashion_n go_v into_o france_n and_o they_o see_v none_o but_o poor_a and_o wretched_a people_n who_o go_v to_o be_v touch_v for_o the_o king_n evil_a very_o believe_v that_o all_o other_o spaniard_n have_v be_v of_o the_o same_o kind_n and_o so_o from_o that_o baseness_n they_o take_v occasion_n to_o hold_v the_o spaniard_n in_o little_a esteem_n and_o beside_o this_o contempt_n to_o increase_v this_o mortal_a enmity_n each_o of_o these_o foresay_a reason_n in_o my_o mind_n be_v sufficient_a occasion_n and_o motive_n of_o the_o hatred_n and_o disdain_n we_o find_v between_o these_o two_o nation_n especial_o the_o devil_n mix_v his_o care_n and_o industry_n with_o it_o but_o if_o i_o shall_v speak_v my_o opinion_n i_o think_v there_o can_v be_v a_o more_o powerful_a reason_n give_v for_o this_o antipathy_n than_o the_o natural_a contrariety_n of_o these_o two_o nation_n humour_n and_o so_o it_o be_v so_o hard_a a_o thing_n to_o force_v nature_n with_o reason_n i_o do_v not_o wonder_v if_o the_o will_n in_o which_o consist_v hatred_n or_o love_n keep_v company_n with_o nature_n and_o follow_v her_o step_n obey_v her_o contrariety_n and_o repugnance_n and_o we_o must_v imagine_v that_o to_o move_v the_o will_n so_o much_o the_o more_o to_o the_o contrariety_n of_o humour_n the_o devil_n do_v help_v forward_o all_o the_o forename_a accident_n so_o that_o the_o constellation_n the_o diversity_n of_o humour_n the_o contempt_n of_o both_o nation_n and_o the_o devil_n join_v together_o there_o can_v nothing_o be_v hope_v for_o but_o a_o mortal_a hatred_n and_o the_o antipathy_n which_o now_o we_o see_v the_o remedy_n of_o which_o lie_v in_o god_n only_o see_v i_o do_v not_o believe_v that_o on_o earth_n there_o be_v any_o antidote_n for_o such_o a_o pestilent_a poison_n chap._n xviii_o that_o the_o conjunction_n and_o confederacy_n of_o these_o two_o crown_n be_v a_o thing_n which_o proceed_v from_o heaven_n among_o the_o great_a and_o infallible_a truth_n which_o the_o apostle_n st._n paul_n write_v to_o lift_v we_o up_o towards_o the_o knowledge_n of_o god_n i_o think_v that_o be_v a_o marvelous_a one_o when_o he_o say_v invisibilia_fw-la dei_fw-la per_fw-la
