servant_n to_o his_o highness_n then_o prince_n of_o wales_n our_o now_o gracious_a sovereign_n when_o my_o lord_n be_v governor_n shall_v relate_v that_o whensoever_o my_o lord_n by_o his_o prudent_a inspection_n and_o foresight_n do_v foretell_v what_o will_v come_v to_o pass_v hereafter_o it_o seem_v so_o improbable_a to_o he_o that_o both_o himself_o and_o some_o other_o believe_v my_o lord_n speak_v extravagant_o but_o some_o few_o year_n after_o his_o prediction_n prove_v true_a and_o the_o event_n do_v confirm_v what_o his_o prudence_n have_v observe_v v._o i_o have_v hear_v that_o in_o our_o late_a civil_a war_n there_o be_v many_o petty_a skirmish_n and_o fortification_n of_o weak_a and_o inconsiderable_a house_n where_o some_o small_a party_n will_v be_v shoot_v and_o potter_v at_o each_o other_o a_o action_n more_o proper_a for_o bandite_n or_o thief_n then_o stout_a and_o valiant_a soldier_n for_o i_o have_v hear_v my_o lord_n say_v that_o such_o small_a party_n divide_v the_o body_n of_o a_o army_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n weaken_v it_o whereas_o the_o business_n may_v be_v much_o easy_o decide_v in_o one_o or_o two_o battle_n with_o less_o ruin_n both_o to_o the_o country_n and_o army_n for_o i_o have_v hear_v my_o lord_n say_v that_o as_o it_o be_v dangerous_a to_o divide_v a_o limb_n from_o the_o body_n so_o it_o be_v also_o dangerous_a to_o divide_v army_n or_o navy_n in_o time_n of_o war_n and_o there_o be_v often_o more_o man_n lose_v in_o such_o petty_a skirmish_n then_o in_o set-battel_n by_o reason_n those_o happen_v almost_o every_o day_n nay_o every_o hour_n in_o several_a place_n vi_o many_o in_o our_o late_a civil-warre_n have_v more_o title_n than_o power_n for_o though_o they_o be_v general_n or_o chief_a commander_n yet_o their_o force_n be_v more_o like_o a_o brigade_n than_o a_o well-formed_a army_n and_o their_o action_n be_v according_o not_o set-battel_n but_o petty_a skirmish_n between_o small_a party_n for_o there_o be_v no_o great_a battle_n fight_v but_o by_o my_o lord_n army_n his_o be_v the_o great_a and_o best-formed_n army_n which_o his_o majesty_n have_v vii_o although_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o it_o be_v a_o usual_a custom_n of_o the_o world_n to_o glorify_v the_o present_a power_n and_o good_a fortune_n and_o vilify_v ill_a fortune_n and_o low_a condition_n yet_o i_o never_o hear_v that_o my_o noble_a lord_n be_v ever_o neglect_v by_o the_o generality_n but_o be_v on_o the_o contrary_a always_o esteem_v and_o praise_v by_o all_o for_o he_o be_v true_o a_o honest_a and_o honourable_a man_n and_o one_o that_o may_v be_v rely_v upon_o both_o for_o trust_v and_o truth_n viii_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o many_o instead_o of_o great_a action_n make_v only_o a_o great_a noise_n and_o like_o shallow_a ford_n or_o empty_a bladder_n sound_v most_o when_o there_o be_v least_o in_o they_o which_o express_v a_o flatter_a partiality_n rather_o than_o honesty_n and_o truth_n for_o truth_n and_o honesty_n lie_v at_o the_o bottom_n and_o have_v more_o action_n than_o show_n ix_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o good_a fortune_n add_v fame_n to_o mean_a action_n when_o as_o ill_a fortune_n darken_v the_o splendour_n of_o the_o most_o meritorious_a for_o mean_a person_n ply_v with_o good_a fortune_n be_v more_o famous_a than_o noble_a person_n that_o be_v shadow_v or_o darken_v with_o ill_a fortune_n so_o that_o fortune_n for_o the_o most_o part_n be_v fame_n champion_n x._o i_o observe_v that_o as_o it_o will_v be_v a_o grief_n to_o covetous_a and_o miserable_a person_n to_o be_v reward_v with_o honour_n rather_o than_o with_o wealth_n because_o they_o love_v wealth_n before_o honour_n and_o fame_n so_o on_o the_o other_o side_n noble_a heroick_n and_o meritorious_a person_n prefer_v honour_n and_o fame_n before_o wealth_n well_o know_v that_o as_o infamy_n be_v the_o great_a punishment_n of_o unworthiness_n so_o fame_n and_o honour_n be_v the_o best_a reward_n of_o worth_n and_o merit_n xii_o i_o observe_v that_o spleen_n and_o malice_n especial_o in_o this_o age_n be_v grow_v to_o that_o height_n that_o none_o will_v endure_v the_o praise_n of_o any_o body_n beside_o themselves_o nay_o they_o will_v rather_o praise_v the_o wicked_a then_o the_o good_a the_o coward_n rather_o than_o the_o valiant_a the_o miserable_a than_o the_o generous_a the_o traitor_n than_o the_o loyal_a which_o make_v wise_a man_n meddle_v as_o little_a with_o the_o affair_n of_o the_o world_n as_o ever_o they_o can_v xiii_o i_o have_v observe_v as_o well_o as_o former_a age_n have_v do_v that_o meritorious_a person_n for_o their_o noble_a action_n most_o common_o get_v envy_n and_o reproach_n instead_o of_o praise_n and_o reward_n unless_o their_o fortune_n be_v above_o envy_n as_o caesar_n and_o elexander_n be_v but_o have_v these_o two_o worthy_n be_v as_o unfortunate_a as_o they_o be_v fortunate_a they_o will_v have_v be_v as_o much_o vilify_v as_o they_o be_v glorify_v fourteen_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o it_o be_v more_o easy_a to_o talk_v then_o to_o act_v to_o forget_v then_o to_o remember_v to_o punish_v then_o to_o reward_v and_o more_o common_a to_o prefer_v flattery_n before_o truth_n interest_n before_o justice_n and_o present_a service_n before_o past_a xv._n i_o have_v observe_v that_o many_o old_a proverb_n be_v very_o true_a and_o among_o the_o rest_n this_o it_o be_v better_a to_o be_v at_o the_o latter_a end_n of_o a_o feast_n then_o at_o the_o begin_n of_o a_o fray_n for_o most_o common_o those_o that_o be_v in_o the_o begin_n of_o a_o fray_n get_v but_o little_a of_o the_o feast_n and_o those_o that_o have_v undergo_v the_o great_a danger_n have_v lest_o of_o the_o spoil_n xvi_o i_o have_v oberve_v that_o favour_n of_o great_a prince_n make_v man_n often_o think_v meritorious_a whereas_o without_o they_o they_o will_v be_v esteem_v but_o as_o ordinary_a person_n xvii_o i_o observe_v that_o in_o other_o kingdom_n or_o country_n to_o be_v the_o chief_a governor_n of_o a_o province_n be_v not_o only_o a_o place_n of_o honour_n but_o much_o profit_n for_o they_o have_v a_o great_a revenue_n to_o themselves_o whereas_o in_o england_n the_o lieutenancy_n of_o a_o county_n be_v bare_o a_o title_n of_o honour_n without_o profit_n except_o it_o be_v the_o lieutenancy_n or_o government_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o ireland_n especial_o since_o the_o late_a earl_n of_o stafford_n enjoy_v that_o dignity_n who_o settle_v that_o kingdom_n very_o wise_o both_o for_o militia_n and_o trade_n xviii_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o those_o that_o meddle_v least_o in_o war_n whether_o civil_a or_o foreign_a be_v not_o only_o most_o safe_a and_o free_a from_o danger_n but_o most_o secure_a from_o loss_n and_o though_o heroic_a person_n esteem_v fame_n before_o life_n yet_o many_o there_o be_v that_o think_v the_o wise_a way_n be_v to_o be_v a_o spectator_n rather_o than_o a_o actor_n unless_o they_o
