of_o china_n who_o reign_v at_o this_o present_a be_v of_o great_a reputation_n and_o have_v increase_v the_o limit_n of_o his_o kingdom_n more_o than_o any_o of_o his_o predecessor_n he_o be_v

he_o have_v cause_v to_o be_v make_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o ordinary_a road_n of_o our_o nation_n i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o there_o be_v between_o fifty_o and_o threescore_o thousand_o man_n at_o the_o guard_n of_o that_o wall_n man_n for_o the_o most_o part_n train_v up_o in_o the_o garrison_n of_o the_o king_n of_o china_n and_o his_o best_a soldier_n &_o i_o know_v no_o good_a mean_n to_o force_v this_o wall_n without_o great_a hazard_n and_o much_o loss_n of_o your_o man_n i_o have_v understand_v that_o towards_o the_o lake_n hogeen_v you_o may_v find_v more_o easy_a entrance_n

he_o have_v not_o to_o deal_v but_o with_o i_o who_o you_o have_v leave_v with_o commandment_n only_o of_o defence_n yet_o i_o think_v this_o to_o be_v most_o for_o your_o advantage_n for_o that_o
