so_o contrary_a to_o the_o most_o indispensable_a rule_n of_o equity_n and_o morality_n xxv_o he_o say_v k._n henry_n be_v soon_o disgu_v at_o anne_n of_o cleve_n than_o he_o have_v be_v of_o his_o other_o wife_n dissolve_v the_o marriage_n for_o two_o reason_n the_o one_o be_v that_o she_o be_v incapable_a of_o have_v child_n and_o the_o other_o be_v her_o heresy_n to_o which_o the_o english_a

that_o k._n henry_n interest_n be_v then_o change_v to_o these_o four_o reason_n he_o add_v a_o five_o that_o she_o have_v not_o that_o engage_v temper_n that_o be_v necessary_a to_o charm_v henry_n 1._o it_o be_v a_o strange_a thing_n to_o see_v a_o historian_n mistake_v every_o thing_n and_o that_o there_o shall_v not_o be_v one_o single_a part_n of_o his_o work_n sound_n the_o sentence_n annul_v the_o k_n marriage_n with_o anne_n of_o cleve_n be_v print_v according_a to_o the_o record_n yet_o extant_a in_o which_o as_o there_o be_v not_o one_o of_o all_o the_o reason_n mention_v by_o

advantage_n that_o a_o man_n better_o inform_v will_v have_v find_v if_o he_o write_v panegyric_n as_o he_o do_v satyr_n mr._n varillas_n will_v still_o be_v mr._n varillas_n xxvi_o he_o pretend_v that_o cromwell_n will_v not_o so_o far_o comply_v with_o the_o king_n aversion_n to_o anne_n of_o cleves_n 172._o as_o to_o concur_v with_o he_o in_o the_o divorce_n which_o draw_v on_o he_o his_o

if_o he_o refuse_v to_o do_v it_o he_o be_v so_o much_o the_o worthy_a man_n xxvii_o he_o tell_v we_o a_o long_a story_n of_o the_o different_a interest_n to_o which_o k._n henry_n be_v lean_v 176._o at_o last_o he_o say_v that_o cromwellsign_v a_o league_n in_o the_o king_n name_n with_o the_o german_a prince_n which_o some_o say_v he_o do_v without_o the_o king_n knowledge_n th●_n other_o say_v

of_o the_o king_n be_v it_o be_v know_v not_o only_o what_o penance_n the_o king_n be_v force_v to_o do_v but_o what_o a_o superstition_n for_o his_o memory_n there_o follow_v upon_o his_o
