his_o majesty_n shall_v be_v entreat_v and_o sue_v unto_o to_o take_v that_o great_a dignity_n upon_o he_o that_o be_v the_o very_a cause_n why_o they_o of_o the_o low_a country_n perceive_v their_o

therefore_o that_o the_o sess_n of_o they_o lie_v not_o in_o the_o controlment_n of_o the_o subject_n the_o three_o be_v that_o it_o be_v a_o unseemly_a and_o intolerable_a rashness_n of_o the_o
