before_o all_o those_o that_o pretend_v of_o the_o house_n of_o portugal_n if_o we_o grant_v he_o to_o be_v legitimate_a and_o much_o more_o clear_o may_v he_o pretend_v to_o the_o dukedom_n of_o

of_o his_o sister_n in_o this_o pretence_n to_o wit_n before_o king_n philip._n and_o three_o against_o the_o duke_n of_o parma_n she_o allege_v that_o she_o be_v one_o degree_n near_o in_o

her_o father_n lord_n edward_n than_o be_v the_o duke_n of_o parma_n who_o be_v but_o nephew_n therefore_o she_o be_v to_o be_v prefer_v and_o many_o great_a book_n be_v write_v by_o lawyer_n in_o

bragansa_n before_o mention_v or_o of_o the_o house_n of_o austria_n see_v there_o want_v not_o many_o able_a and_o worthy_a prince_n of_o that_o house_n for_o who_o there_o will_v be_v the_o same_o

before_o have_v be_v declare_v from_o which_o sentence_n this_o second_o son_n be_v make_v free_a by_o the_o argument_n before_o allege_a and_o therein_o prefer_v before_o his_o elder_a brother_n and_o second_o for_o that_o this_o young_a son_n be_v unmarried_a for_o any_o thing_n that_o i_o do_v know_v to_o the_o contrary_a which_o may_v be_v a_o point_n of_o no_o small_a moment_n in_o such_o a_o occasion_n as_o have_v be_v note_v divers_a time_n before_o for_o join_v or_o fortify_v of_o title_n by_o marriage_n and_o for_o make_v of_o composition_n of_o peace_n and_o union_n with_o the_o opposite_a party_n and_o final_o for_o that_o this_o second_o son_n be_v young_a his_o religion_n be_v not_o much_o talk_v of_o and_o consequent_o every_o party_n may_v have_v hope_n to_o draw_v he_o to_o their_o side_n especial_o he_o be_v also_o free_a as_o i_o have_v say_v to_o follow_v what_o he_o shall_v think_v best_a or_o most_o expedient_a for_o his_o own_o advancement_n without_o knot_n or_o obligation_n to_o follow_v other_o man_n affection_n or_o judgement_n in_o that_o point_n as_o he_o will_v be_v presume_v to_o be_v if_o he_o be_v marry_v or_o much_o oblige_v to_o any_o other_o

very_o great_a both_o in_o respect_n of_o their_o descent_n which_o in_o effect_n be_v hold_v as_o it_o be_v clear_a from_o bastardy_n as_o before_o have_v be_v show_v and_o then_o again_o for_o

do_v name_n this_o countess_n child_n and_o not_o herself_o for_o that_o i_o see_v most_o man_n that_o favour_v this_o house_n very_o willing_a and_o desirous_a that_o some_o of_o the_o say_a countess_n child_n shall_v rather_o be_v prefer_v than_o she_o herself_o and_o this_o for_o that_o she_o be_v a_o woman_n and_o it_o seem_v to_o they_o much_o to_o have_v three_o woman_n reign_v one_o after_o the_o other_o as_o before_o have_v be_v note_v so_o as_o they_o will_v have_v her_o title_n to_o be_v cast_v rather_o upon_o one_o of_o her_o child_n even_o as_o upon_o like_a occasion_n it_o
