moreover_o let_v we_o add_v to_o this_o that_o it_o be_v not_o yet_o sufficient_a that_o a_o prince_n shall_v distrust_v his_o minister_n or_o change_v they_o he_o must_v be_v his_o own_o minister_n

the_o remedy_n that_o ought_v to_o be_v apply_v to_o so_o many_o mischief_n wherewith_o we_o find_v ourselves_o overwhelm_v at_o this_o day_n but_o as_o i_o can_v only_o offer_v what_o several_a
