this_o manner_n i_o be_o content_a to_o past_a for_o one_o his_o defence_n of_o himself_o from_o the_o four_o thousand_o citation_n of_o du_n tillet_n and_o peter_n du_fw-fr puy_n that_o be_v now_o

though_o the_o proof_n i_o have_v give_v to_o the_o contrary_a will_v have_v have_v still_o force_n enough_o to_o discredit_v his_o history_n i_o fancy_v at_o least_o that_o he_o will_v have_v cite_v

acknowledge_v that_o i_o have_v no_o reason_n to_o complain_v of_o he_o since_o he_o justify_v himself_o by_o so_o many_o page_n cite_v from_o that_o author_n that_o they_o make_v the_o half_a of_o his_o answer_n but_o since_o he_o pretend_v to_o write_v upon_o original_a paper_n and_o yet_o do_v not_o cite_v any_o one_o i_o leave_v it_o to_o all_o indifferent_a man_n to_o conclude_v what_o account_n be_v to_o be_v hereafter_o make_v of_o all_o the_o history_n that_o either_o have_v come_v or_o can_v come_v from_o he_o let_v he_o print_v his_o voucher_n or_o at_o least_o let_v he_o tell_v where_o they_o may_v be_v find_v otherwise_o i_o will_v take_v the_o liberty_n to_o tell_v he_o that_o all_o his_o history_n be_v romance_n which_o he_o have_v draw_v as_o to_o the_o matter_n of_o fact_n out_o of_o the_o worst_a author_n and_o the_o most_o decry_v of_o any_o that_o have_v write_v in_o the_o last_o age_n and_o to_o which_o he_o add_v a_o refine_n of_o policy_n such_o as_o his_o own_o invention_n can_v furnish_v so_o that_o without_o the_o least_o aggravation_n i_o do_v affirm_v that_o one_o may_v seek_v the_o history_n of_o alexander_n the_o great_a or_o of_o augustus_n in_o the_o romance_n of_o cassandra_n or_o cleopatra_n with_o as_o much_o assurance_n as_o the_o history_n of_o the_o reformation_n in_o mr._n varillas_n all_o the_o difference_n between_o he_o and_o those_o romantic_a writer_n be_v that_o they_o build_v indeed_o on_o good_a author_n upon_o which_o they_o graft_v their_o own_o fiction_n yet_o in_o such_o a_o manner_n that_o no_o body_n can_v be_v deceive_v by_o they_o whereas_o mr._n varillas_n have_v found_v his_o romance_n on_o very_o bad_a author_n and_o he_o deliver_v his_o fiction_n with_o such_o a_o air_n of_o sincerity_n as_o may_v very_o probable_o deceive_v those_o who_o believe_v too_o easy_o so_o that_o i_o see_v nothing_o that_o be_v leave_v for_o he_o to_o preserve_v that_o small_a remnant_n of_o reputation_n that_o it_o seem_v a_o coquelin_n or_o some_o few_o of_o his_o friend_n retain_v yet_o for_o he_o but_o to_o own_o that_o he_o intend_v not_o to_o write_v true_a history_n but_o only_o to_o amuse_v the_o world_n with_o a_o new_a sort_n of_o nouvelles_fw-fr in_o which_o the_o point_n at_o which_o he_o aim_v be_v not_o to_o tell_v truth_n but_o that_o as_o the_o writer_n of_o play_n or_o romance_n think_v the_o best_a way_n to_o work_v upon_o the_o passion_n be_v to_o dress_v up_o know_v story_n with_o move_a circumstance_n since_o man_n be_v not_o so_o apt_a to_o be_v affect_v when_o all_o
