truth_n that_o in_o a_o word_n all_o who_o be_v great_a rational_a and_o spiritual_a in_o the_o kingdom_n will_v give_v their_o heart_n and_o mind_n to_o the_o most_o just_a verity_n one_o may_v observe_v in_o the_o debate_n of_o religion_n that_o which_o fall_v out_o in_o all_o other_o quarrel_n one_o never_o yield_v to_o declare_v enemy_n till_o after_o they_o have_v try_v the_o misfortune_n of_o arm_n and_o then_o the_o submission_n increase_v the_o rage_n of_o the_o overcome_a and_o beget_v such_o grudge_n as_o be_v the_o father_n or_o child_n of_o desperate_a action_n but_o in_o a_o cessation_n of_o fight_n they_o speak_v together_o they_o hear_v one_o another_o they_o join_v their_o interest_n and_o every_o one_o have_v time_n to_o do_v justice_n to_o himself_o and_o other_o if_o we_o can_v have_v in_o france_n so_o sweet_a a_o way_n to_o perfect_a peace_n we_o shall_v see_v a_o miraculous_a effect_n and_o soon_o than_o one_o can_v believe_v of_o this_o desire_a unity_n because_o every_o one_o be_v dis-engaged_n from_o the_o authority_n of_o stranger_n without_o fear_v to_o be_v punish_v by_o the_o king_n order_n will_v bind_v himself_o willing_o to_o his_o natural_a prince_n who_o be_v most_o christian_a rather_o than_o to_o tie_v himself_o to_o the_o roman_a monarch_n who_o appear_v very_o jealous_a and_o hard_a to_o be_v serve_v and_o so_o not_o part_v their_o heart_n they_o will_v unite_v their_o soul_n if_o a_o frenchman_n be_v in_o necessity_n of_o have_v a_o dispensation_n for_o marriage_n will_v he_o not_o be_v content_a rather_o to_o obtain_v it_o of_o the_o king_n than_o to_o buy_v it_o of_o rome_n especial_o when_o in_o these_o day_n they_o cost_v four_o time_n more_o than_o ordinary_a to_o make_v war_n against_o candia_n

the_o power_n of_o rome_n and_o when_o we_o shall_v have_v well_o think_v upon_o the_o establishment_n of_o this_o sweet_a agreement_n the_o fruit_n which_o it_o will_v produce_v will_v be_v find_v

of_o a_o roman-catholique_a find_n in_o its_o self_n these_o proof_n to_o be_v so_o uncertain_a as_o well_o in_o the_o essential_o as_o circumstatials_n will_v have_v much_o less_o a_o do_v to_o
