cause_n that_o move_v the_o queen_n my_o mistress_n to_o make_v account_n of_o the_o amity_n of_o this_o crown_n be_v that_o the_o king_n suffer_v certain_a of_o his_o subject_n to_o enjoy_v by_o

notwithstanding_o the_o difference_n of_o religion_n between_o my_o late_a husband_n and_o king_n edward_n yet_o the_o same_o do_v not_o impeach_v the_o conclusion_n of_o a_o marriage_n between_o

to_o this_o i_o reply_v that_o true_a it_o be_v that_o the_o league_n be_v make_v with_o the_o king_n and_o not_o with_o the_o admiral_n notwithstanding_o that_o the_o liberty_n of_o conscience_n be_v

the_o religion_n and_o sure_o madam_n say_v i_o i_o fear_v that_o this_o late_a severity_n execute_v here_o will_v make_v all_o prince_n of_o the_o religion_n to_o repute_v the_o same_o a_o general_a

thereupon_o she_o take_v occasion_n to_o inveigh_v vehement_o against_o the_o admiral_n say_v that_o the_o matter_n of_o bayonne_n be_v a_o device_n of_o he_o to_o provoke_v such_o prince_n as_o be_v

to_o the_o end_n you_o may_v see_v how_o little_a your_o mistress_n be_v behold_v to_o he_o you_o may_v see_v say_v she_o a_o discourse_n find_v with_o his_o testament_n make_v at_o such_o time_n as_o

to_o the_o disturbance_n of_o her_o majesty_n who_o amity_n he_o mean_v earnest_o to_o embrace_v and_o further_o his_o answer_n be_v that_o whereas_o violence_n have_v be_v use_v towards_o her_o

here_o with_o such_o surety_n as_o he_o shall_v have_v no_o occasion_n to_o doubt_v his_o safety_n this_o be_v the_o answer_n
king_n say_v be_v by_o the_o mean_a people_n how_o unmeet_a it_o be_v at_o this_o time_n to_o motion_n such_o a_o matter_n unto_o her_o merchant_n who_o be_v now_o marvellous_o intimerate_v and_o

to_o the_o king_n so_o now_o there_o be_v to_o all_o the_o world_n one_o great_a cause_n that_o her_o majesty_n may_v not_o with_o honour_n nor_o with_o law_n of_o nature_n send_v any_o who_o she_o

from_o hence_o if_o she_o shall_v come_v for_o a_o time_n it_o be_v well_o know_v with_o what_o liberty_n and_o surety_n his_o ambassador_n may_v and_o do_v travel_n in_o this_o realm_n who_o may_v

either_o with_o as_o good_a or_o with_o some_o such_o certainty_n as_o may_v be_v to_o their_o like_n our_o conference_n will_v be_v to_o small_a purpose_n and_o in_o my_o simple_a opinion_n it_o be_v

they_o will_v have_v it_o so_o conclude_v she_o can_v be_v content_a to_o enter_v into_o open_a war_n against_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n or_o not_o for_o in_o these_o two_o point_n chief_o will_v all_o their_o treat_v consist_v wherein_o if_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o resolve_v they_o your_o lordship_n can_v easy_o conceive_v what_o end_n our_o negotiation_n will_v have_v i_o be_o give_v to_o understand_v that_o in_o case_n her_o marriage_n shall_v not_o take_v place_n than_o the_o king_n will_v enter_v into_o a_o league_n defensive_a only_o add_v to_o the_o treaty_n already_o
