might_n be_v find_v as_o that_o he_o the_o lord_n ambassador_n have_v observe_v from_o several_a of_o the_o member_n of_o state_n the_o fear_n they_o have_v of_o his_o majesty_n arm_n if_o spain_n

remain_v in_o the_o state_n wherein_o they_o be_v and_o hinder_v that_o the_o troop_n they_o have_v send_v the_o spaniard_n shall_v not_o further_o act_n than_o in_o defence_n of_o the_o spanish_a place_n his_o majesty_n to_o free_v the_o state_n general_n from_o that_o fear_n will_v promise_v they_o to_o attack_v no_o place_n and_o to_o cause_v his_o force_n to_o act_v elsewhere_o and_o content_v himself_o to_o force_v the_o spanish_a netherlands_o by_o quarter_a of_o his_o troop_n on_o they_o and_o the_o exact_v of_o contribution_n and_o what_o concern_v the_o security_n which_o his_o majesty_n desire_v that_o no_o new_a levy_n shall_v be_v make_v that_o those_o be_v matter_n that_o may_v best_o be_v by_o verbal_a expression_n but_o not_o mention_v in_o the_o memorial_n that_o thereby_o the_o intrinsic_a of_o government_n shall_v not_o be_v touch_v but_o that_o it_o will_v be_v sufficient_a to_o say_v that_o they_o shall_v remain_v in_o the_o state_n wherein_o they_o be_v and_o that_o also_o otherwise_o when_o they_o agree_v concern_v the_o rest_n they_o will_v then_o rather_o think_v on_o discharge_v of_o those_o already_o raise_v than_o of_o raise_v any_o new_a

to_o cause_v that_o matter_n to_o take_v effect_n that_o they_o have_v assure_v he_o that_o every_o day_n they_o gain_v one_o or_o other_o city_n to_o their_o judgement_n and_o that_o they_o have_v gain_v one_o of_o the_o principall_a that_o they_o wrought_v hard_a to_o bring_v the_o spaniard_n to_o a_o accommodation_n and_o if_o that_o can_v not_o be_v effect_v that_o they_o must_v then_o take_v the_o aforesaid_a mean_n in_o hand_n to_o maintain_v the_o peace_n in_o the_o spanish_a netherlands_o and_o that_o they_o hope_v that_o the_o province_n of_o friesland_n city_n and_o country_n will_v agree_v to_o their_o sentiment_n and_o that_o they_o have_v desire_v he_o to_o speak_v with_o their_o deputy_n to_o confirm_v they_o the_o more_o so_o that_o the_o lord_n ambassador_n can_v assure_v his_o majesty_n that_o the_o lord_n of_o amsterdam_n do_v do_v all_o that_o be_v in_o their_o power_n and_o that_o they_o agitate_a with_o the_o other_o city_n with_o a_o incredible_a zeal_n and_o application_n and_o that_o he_o can_v not_o omit_v to_o acquaint_v his_o majesty_n that_o some_o member_n of_o the_o state_n have_v make_v difficulty_n to_o agree_v that_o his_o majesty_n shall_v execute_v upon_o the_o spanish_a open_a country_n for_o that_o it_o be_v impossible_a that_o these_o province_n can_v maintain_v themselves_o when_o they_o shall_v not_o know_v from_o whence_o to_o find_v subsistence_n and_o that_o so_o indirect_o the_o whole_a barrier_n shall_v be_v take_v away_o now_o to_o consider_v whether_o there_o be_v truth_n in_o what_o the_o lord_n ambassador_n have_v write_v in_o this_o matter_n you_o will_v no_o doubt_n remember_v that_o the_o lord_n of_o amsterdam_n in_o particular_a discourse_n they_o have_v with_o the_o member_n of_o the_o assembly_n before_o they_o have_v orderly_o take_v their_o seat_n as_o also_o when_o the_o same_o member_n be_v rise_v after_o the_o conclusion_n and_o demit_v of_o the_o assembly_n they_o have_v now_o and_o then_o speak_v much_o of_o expedient_n that_o ought_v to_o be_v take_v to_o keep_v the_o war_n out_o of_o the_o spanish_a netherlands_o in_o case_n the_o spaniard_n shall_v accept_v none_o of_o the_o french_a postulata_fw-la or_o accommodate_v themselves_o with_o france_n that_o they_o also_o endeavour_v particular_o to_o inform_v themselves_o of_o his_o highness_n whether_o the_o militia_n of_o this_o state_n in_o the_o spanish_a netherlands_o have_v any_o other_o order_n but_o only_o to_o defend_v the_o city_n and_o that_o some_o of_o they_o as_o herebefore_n i_o have_v say_v have_v name_v the_o foresay_a procedure_v by_o the_o french_a in_o the_o spanish_a netherlands_o a_o chastisement_n which_o spain_n have_v well_o deserve_v and_o a_o remedy_n whereby_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n will_v be_v oblige_v to_o submit_v to_o the_o will_n of_o the_o king_n of_o france_n and_o thereby_o it_o may_v be_v deduce_v that_o it_o be_v easy_o to_o be_v believe_v that_o those_o proposition_n issue_v from_o those_o who_o be_v possess_v with_o such_o a_o ill_a will_n against_o spain_n and_o so_o great_a a_o good_a will_n for_o france_n that_o all_o those_o horrid_a action_n commit_v in_o the_o foresay_a netherlands_o be_v only_o palliate_v with_o the_o name_n of_o chastisement_n and_o look_v on_o as_o remedy_n to_o force_n spain_n to_o agree_v to_o the_o will_n of_o france_n and_o you_o be_v not_o ignorant_a how_o often_o they_o in_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o state_n by_o their_o public_a advice_n have_v say_v that_o they_o must_v necessitate_v spain_n to_o yield_v to_o one_o of_o the_o french_a postulata_fw-la and_o that_o they_o have_v more_o and_o more_o explain_v themselves_o that_o they_o thereby_o understand_v that_o in_o relation_n thereto_o mean_n must_v be_v use_v to_o constrain_v they_o and_o make_v they_o sensible_a that_o it_o be_v also_o true_a that_o the_o lord_n of_o amsterdam_n have_v desire_v that_o that_o which_o france_n have_v to_o propose_v may_v be_v public_a to_o all_o the_o world_n thereby_o to_o gain_v their_o advantage_n on_o those_o who_o be_v ignorant_a may_v hereby_o appear_v that_o when_o in_o the_o assembly_n of_o holland_n they_o have_v deliberate_v on_o the_o mean_n of_o secrecy_n which_o shall_v be_v observe_v in_o the_o treaty_n set_v on_o foot_n with_o the_o ally_n concern_v the_o mean_n of_o a_o accommodation_n the_o lord_n of_o amsterdam_n have_v open_o say_v that_o they_o will_v not_o consent_v therein_o because_o they_o will_v be_v over-voted_n by_o all_o the_o other_o dissent_v member_n in_o the_o negotiation_n of_o that_o affair_n that_o in_o that_o same_o matter_n they_o may_v not_o make_v any_o note_n nor_o relate_v to_o other_o what_o pass_v therein_o and_o that_o therefore_o they_o rather_o will_v the_o same_o shall_v pass_v through_o a_o number_n of_o above_o 400_o person_n than_o pass_v through_o a_o few_o out_o of_o which_o according_a to_o my_o judgement_n nothing_o else_o be_v to_o be_v conclude_v but_o that_o the_o lord_n of_o amsterdam_n find_v themselves_o in_o their_o opinion_n singular_a and_o that_o all_o the_o other_o member_n meet_v in_o the_o assembly_n much_o blame_v their_o conduct_n though_o that_o by_o those_o who_o do_v not_o there_o appear_v but_o daily_o hear_v and_o see_v what_o be_v there_o deliberate_v on_o and_o who_o can_v not_o so_o well_o be_v inform_v of_o all_o thing_n as_o the_o other_o they_o will_v reap_v more_o benefit_n by_o a_o abusive_a information_n give_v they_o and_o to_o raise_v a_o agitation_n in_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o regent_n and_o other_o inhabitant_n under_o that_o please_a pretence_n of_o peace_n and_o freedom_n from_o extraordinary_a tax_n and_o that_o they_o can_v not_o so_o well_o serve_v themselves_o thereof_o when_o they_o must_v only_o speak_v to_o those_o who_o be_v as_o well_o inform_v of_o these_o matter_n as_o themselves_o and_o can_v on_o all_o occasion_n undeniable_o convince_v they_o of_o their_o abuse_n and_o wrong_a proposition_n for_o that_o the_o allegation_n which_o they_o make_v that_o this_o negotiation_n be_v of_o that_o importance_n that_o the_o whole_a government_n ought_v to_o have_v cognizance_n thereof_o be_v but_o a_o pretence_n will_v not_o only_o appear_v that_o the_o business_n wherein_o the_o foresay_a secrecy_n shall_v have_v be_v use_v shall_v have_v only_o be_v preparatory_a and_o not_o that_o the_o lord_n thereto_o appoint_v shall_v have_v conclude_v aught_o final_o without_o the_o state_n of_o the_o respective_a province_n or_o those_o who_o shall_v be_v thereunto_o by_o they_o authorize_v after_o a_o full_a account_n of_o what_o in_o that_o affair_n have_v pass_v and_o with_o full_a and_o considerate_a deliberation_n shall_v have_v resolve_v and_o determine_v what_o they_o shall_v have_v judge_v to_o consist_v with_o the_o service_n of_o the_o republic_n which_o design_n and_o intention_n of_o they_o appear_v undeniable_o that_o they_o themselves_o propose_v that_o when_o the_o other_o member_n will_v conform_v to_o their_o sentiment_n and_o will_v join_v with_o they_o for_o the_o furtherance_n of_o a_o peace_n they_o by_o write_v

thereof_o they_o shall_v use_v their_o own_o particular_a seal_n and_o all_o the_o member_n and_o particular_o also_o the_o lord_n depute_v of_o the_o say_a city_n of_o amsterdam_n undertake_v to_o
