here_o say_v be_v no_o cavil_v for_o to_o be_v convince_v of_o the_o truth_n of_o what_o i_o say_v one_o need_v but_o to_o read_v the_o five_o article_n of_o the_o same_o treaty_n which_o say_v thus_o as_o for_o the_o union_n and_o agreement_n between_o the_o two_o house_n and_o the_o treaty_n make_v till_o the_o year_n 1675._o they_o shall_v continue_v in_o their_o full_a force_n and_o vigour_n and_o be_v religious_o keep_v and_o observe_v as_o well_o as_o the_o treaty_n of_o westphalia_n the_o north_n and_o fontainebleau_n who_o see_v not_o that_o how_o sovereign_a soever_o the_o duke_n of_o gottorp_n be_v or_o what_o right_o soever_o he_o have_v to_o build_v fort_n and_o to_o put_v garrison_n in_o they_o etc._n etc._n he_o can_v do_v nothing_o but_o what_o agree_v with_o these_o treaty_n of_o union_n and_o agreement_n between_o the_o house_n else_o the_o five_o article_n be_v useless_a now_o the_o question_n be_v if_o what_o the_o duke_n do_v be_v not_o contrary_a to_o these_o treaty_n this_o be_v my_o first_o reflection_n the_o second_o be_v that_o without_o descend_v to_o the_o particular_n of_o what_o i_o here_o before_o have_v speak_v concern_v the_o aim_n and_o intention_n of_o these_o treaty_n of_o union_n it_o be_v enough_o to_o say_v that_o all_o treaty_n of_o union_n be_v by_o right_a such_o that_o although_o those_o who_o treat_v shall_v find_v their_o interest_n whole_o separateed_o one_o of_o the_o party_n can_v do_v nothing_o that_o be_v prejudicial_a to_o the_o other_o without_o infringe_v the_o treaty_n else_o it_o be_v no_o long_o a_o treaty_n of_o union_n this_o be_v a_o matter_n of_o fact_n incontestable_a and_o be_v so_o with_o how_o much_o more_o reason_n be_v it_o when_o the_o party_n have_v the_o right_n and_o interest_n in_o common_a as_o in_o this_o present_a case_n the_o duke_n of_o gottorp_n therefore_o be_v to_o prove_v not_o only_o that_o it_o be_v for_o the_o common_a interest_n to_o build_v fort_n in_o the_o place_n where_o he_o will_v build_v they_o and_o that_o they_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o good_a and_o preservation_n of_o the_o country_n but_o also_o that_o these_o fort_n can_v be_v to_o any_o prejudice_n to_o the_o king_n of_o denmark_n his_o joint-lord_n and_o this_o be_v what_o he_o can_v never_o be_v able_a to_o prove_v for_o on_o the_o one_o hand_n he_o will_v build_v they_o in_o the_o middle_n of_o the_o country_n which_o be_v useless_a for_o its_o preservation_n see_v it_o be_v never_o think_v necessary_a to_o fortify_v but_o only_o the_o frontier_n on_o the_o other_o hand_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o he_o fortify_v himself_o against_o the_o king_n deprive_v his_o majesty_n of_o the_o right_n of_o the_o general_a inspection_n he_o have_v over_o the_o whole_a duchy_n and_o consequent_o the_o duke_n break_v visible_o the_o union_n and_o agreement_n between_o the_o two_o house_n and_o even_o the_o community_n though_o it_o shall_v not_o extend_v any_o further_a than_o to_o the_o nobility_n and_o clergy_n for_o this_o community_n alone_o be_v enough_o to_o hinder_v one_o of_o the_o sovereign_n from_o do_v any_o thing_n that_o concern_v the_o general_a interest_n of_o the_o sovereignty_n without_o the_o consent_n of_o the_o other_o i_o think_v the_o king_n have_v reason_n to_o tell_v the_o duke_n you_o have_v right_o to_o build_v fort_n i_o confess_v it_o you_o have_v tonningen_n of_o which_o you_o be_v master_n without_o dispute_n but_o that_o you_o may_v do_v nothing_o to_o my_o prejudice_n and_o that_o that_o which_o you_o design_v to_o do_v may_v be_v for_o the_o good_a of_o our_o common_a sovereignty_n let_v we_o agree_v about_o the_o place_n and_o the_o work_n afterward_o you_o may_v build_v free_o and_o i_o shall_v be_v so_o far_o from_o oppose_v it_o that_o i_o will_v assist_v you_o but_o the_o duke_n instead_o of_o act_v unanimous_o with_o the_o king_n for_o the_o common_a good_a will_v alone_o give_v law_n explain_v the_o treaty_n as_o he_o please_v and_o be_v the_o sovereign_a arbiter_n in_o a_o thing_n where_o he_o have_v but_o only_o his_o vote_n this_o be_v not_o yet_o all_o for_o the_o duke_n be_v so_o far_o from_o consider_v joint_o with_o the_o king_n what_o be_v necessary_a for_o the_o good_a of_o their_o common_a duchy_n that_o he_o introduce_v there_o the_o hereditary_a enemy_n of_o the_o crown_n of_o denmark_n build_v fort_n and_o put_v they_o in_o their_o hand_n pretend_v if_o i_o so_o may_v say_v to_o give_v the_o sovereignty_n another_o master_n be_v this_o the_o sense_n and_o meaning_n of_o the_o treaty_n of_o union_n between_o the_o two_o house_n be_v this_o the_o sense_n of_o the_o treaty_n of_o 1658._o and_o of_o the_o letters-patent_n this_o be_v so_o true_a that_o i_o will_v fain_o ask_v those_o who_o have_v advise_v the_o duke_n to_o act_n as_o he_o do_v if_o now_o the_o swedish_n troop_n be_v in_o his_o country_n they_o be_v assure_v that_o their_o master_n be_v master_n enough_o to_o make_v they_o leave_v it_o when_o he_o command_v and_o be_v there_o never_o any_o example_n that_o prince_n have_v pay_v dear_a for_o their_o passion_n desire_v of_o revenge_n and_o too_o much_o trust_v it_o be_v to_o no_o purpose_n to_o say_v that_o those_o troop_n shall_v swear_v fidelity_n to_o the_o duke_n and_o obey_v his_o order_n for_o beside_o that_o such_o oath_n be_v but_o useless_a precaution_n according_a to_o the_o practice_n now_o adays_o one_o must_v be_v wilful_o blind_a not_o to_o see_v that_o whatsoever_o happen_v the_o king_n of_o sweden_n will_v always_o be_v master_n of_o his_o troop_n and_o the_o duke_n order_n must_v submit_v to_o he_o it_o may_v perhaps_o be_v say_v that_o this_o be_v the_o duke_n business_n that_o he_o be_v master_n at_o home_n and_o that_o he_o have_v right_a to_o make_v alliance_n but_o this_o be_v a_o mistake_n since_o he_o carry_v the_o thing_n too_o far_o for_o it_o be_v chief_o the_o king_n business_n who_o interest_n it_o be_v to_o hinder_v the_o swede_n from_o fortify_v themselves_o in_o the_o heart_n of_o his_o dominion_n beside_o can_v one_o say_v that_o the_o duke_n be_v so_o absolute_a master_n even_o of_o his_o portion_n in_o the_o duchy_n that_o he_o can_v dispose_v of_o it_o as_o he_o please_v no_o certain_o for_o without_o allege_v the_o community_n over_o the_o nobility_n and_o clergy_n and_o the_o union_n which_o hinder_v one_o of_o the_o sovereign_n from_o undertake_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o the_o other_o one_o need_v but_o read_v the_o treaty_n of_o 1658._o for_o to_o see_v that_o the_o right_n of_o vassalage_n and_o sovereignty_n be_v not_o yield_v but_o to_o the_o duke_n and_o their_o issue_n males_n bear_v and_o to_o be_v bear_v in_o lawful_a marriage_n and_o not_o to_o any_o other_o and_o therefore_o the_o issue_n males_n once_o fail_v the_o king_n remain_v sovereign_a alone_a and_o enter_v into_o all_o his_o right_n again_o as_o i_o have_v already_o observe_v beside_o the_o letters-patent_n say_v express_o that_o the_o duchy_n of_o sleswig_n can_v be_v alienate_v neither_o in_o whole_a nor_o in_o part_n to_o the_o prejudice_n of_o the_o king_n and_o crown_n of_o denmark_n final_o as_o for_o the_o right_n of_o make_v alliance_n it_o be_v evident_a by_o all_o that_o i_o have_v say_v that_o what_o right_o soever_o the_o duke_n have_v to_o that_o yet_o nothing_o can_v authorize_v he_o to_o put_v the_o country_n in_o the_o hand_n or_o power_n of_o any_o other_o nor_o by_o consequence_n to_o introduce_v foreign_a troop_n for_o what_o reason_n then_o do_v he_o charge_v the_o country_n with_o new_a troop_n what_o war_n have_v he_o to_o fear_v where_o or_o who_o be_v the_o enemy_n all_o europe_n be_v in_o quiet_a and_o if_o there_o be_v nothing_o to_o fear_v why_o then_o do_v he_o oppress_v the_o people_n or_o exhaust_v the_o country_n without_o necessity_n be_v this_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o treaty_n of_o union_n between_o the_o house_n some_o perhaps_o will_v answer_v that_o the_o king_n of_o denmark_n himself_o be_v the_o enemy_n of_o the_o duke_n of_o gottorp_n because_o of_o what_o pass_v in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o late_a duke_n his_o father_n but_o the_o king_n may_v reply_v first_o that_o neither_o he_o nor_o his_o ancestor_n have_v ever_o be_v enemy_n to_o the_o duke_n of_o gottorp_n but_o when_o the_o duke_n have_v be_v they_o and_o hold_v correspondence_n with_o the_o enemy_n of_o the_o crown_n of_o denmark_n contrary_a to_o the_o treaty_n of_o union_n etc._n etc._n and_o indeed_o the_o king_n of_o denmark_n have_v good_a ground_n then_o to_o secure_v a_o country_n wherein_o they_o have_v a_o incontestable_a right_n and_o to_o hinder_v the_o duke_n from_o admit_v their_o enemy_n and_o give_v they_o entrance_n into_o their_o kingdom_n second_o if_o this_o reason_n
