he_o he_o will_v never_o leave_v he_o off_o till_o either_o he_o have_v beat_v he_o to_o piece_n or_o chase_v he_o out_o of_o hungary_n but_o the_o duke_n of_o lorraine_n it_o seem_v entertain_v no_o such_o thought_n and_o all_o that_o little_a that_o he_o do_v be_v against_o tecke_o as_o if_o a_o mastiff_n have_v a_o bear_n by_o the_o throat_n shall_v let_v go_v his_o hold_n to_o snap_v at_o a_o

conquest_n those_o they_o have_v with_o they_o be_v hardly_o sufficient_a to_o man_n the_o place_n they_o take_v it_o have_v therefore_o be_v well_o do_v by_o caprara_n if_o he_o have_v send_v a_o

now_o do_v be_v to_o lie_v hatch_n over_o his_o new_a conquest_n of_o caschaw_n and_o to_o put_v his_o man_n in_o winter_n quarter_n and_o this_o last_o he_o do_v soon_o than_o he_o need_v the_o season_n be_v yet_o favourable_a for_o we_o find_v that_o mercy_n and_o heusler_n continue_v in_o action_n and_o in_o the_o field_n for_o several_a week_n after_o caschaw_n be_v surrender_v 12._o it_o have_v be_v say_v before_o that_o the_o surrender_n of_o caschaw_n and_o other_o place_n be_v occasion_v by_o teckely_n imprisonment_n and_o sure_o the_o imprisonment_n of_o count_n tecke_o by_o the_o

a_o large_a country_n and_o pierce_v deep_a into_o the_o enemy_n quarter_n they_o show_v what_o the_o duke_n of_o lorraine_n may_v have_v do_v if_o he_o have_v please_v with_o his_o whole_a army_n to_o march_v that_o way_n he_o may_v as_o easy_o have_v take_v waradine_n and_o segedine_n and_o temeswar_n as_o they_o take_v saravas_n and_o zolnock_n he_o may_v have_v master_v the_o whole_a

after_o the_o battle_n of_o grand_fw-mi have_v deliver_v his_o victorious_a troop_n to_o mercy_n and_o heusler_n we_o may_v well_o imagine_v what_o work_n they_o have_v make_v and_o how_o like_o a_o

from_o thence_o make_v that_o he_o be_v in_o a_o very_a ill_a condition_n for_o we_o may_v well_o think_v that_o this_o wary_a people_n who_o also_o have_v perfect_a intelligence_n of_o the_o state_n of_o that_o empire_n will_v not_o engage_v but_o upon_o sure_a term_n i_o believe_v this_o be_v the_o first_o time_n that_o they_o have_v be_v guilty_a of_o take_v voluntary_a arm_n against_o the_o turk_n they_o not_o be_v much_o give_v to_o that_o sort_n of_o fool_v which_o some_o call_v gallantry_n this_o be_v not_o speak_v in_o derogation_n of_o the_o serene_a republic_n they_o deserve_v great_a honour_n upon_o several_a account_n nor_o ought_v we_o to_o heed_n the_o character_n give_v they_o by_o joseph_n scaliger_n in_o his_o invective_n poem_n which_o i_o think_v be_v the_o bitter_a satyr_n that_o ever_o be_v write_v next_o to_o that_o of_o catullus_n against_o caesar_n it_o seem_v the_o pretension_n of_o this_o family_n to_o verona_n have_v fill_v the_o man_n pen_n with_o gall_n and_o vinegar_n the_o venetian_n have_v thus_o undertake_v the_o war_n let_v we_o see_v how_o they_o prosecute_v it_o their_o terra_fw-la firma_fw-la or_o land_n upon_o the_o continent_n lie_v round_o the_o bottom_n of_o their_o gulf_n within_o which_o upon_o certain_a small_a island_n venice_n itself_o be_v situate_a most_o of_o the_o land_n by_o much_o do_v lie_v on_o the_o

the_o great_a part_n and_o this_o be_v the_o only_a place_n where_o they_o border_n upon_o the_o turk_n by_o land_n hither_o their_o army_n may_v march_v by_o land_n or_o be_v transport_v across_o the_o gulf_n by_o a_o short_a cut_n and_o at_o a_o easy_a charge_n and_o here_o they_o may_v also_o be_v supply_v at_o pleasure_n moreover_o the_o country_n of_o dalmatia_n lie_v extend_v upon_o this_o gulf_n of_o venice_n from_o istria_n to_o albania_n between_o three_o and_o four_o hundred_o mile_n in_o length_n and_o it_o will_v be_v to_o the_o venetian_n a_o thing_n of_o mighty_a
