of_o the_o two_o last_o ground_n of_o war_n i_o shall_v make_v it_o plain_a that_o war_n preventive_a upon_o just_a fear_n be_v true_a defensives_n as_o well_o as_o upon_o actual_a invasion_n and_o

i_o shall_v not_o go_v so_o high_a as_o to_o discuss_v the_o right_n of_o the_o war_n of_o bohemia_n which_o if_o it_o be_v free_v from_o doubt_n on_o our_o part_n then_o there_o be_v no_o colour_n

and_o absolute_a as_o a_o hereditary_a no_o more_o than_o it_o be_v possible_a for_o a_o father_n to_o have_v so_o full_a power_n and_o interest_n in_o a_o adoptive_a son_n as_o in_o a_o natural_a

for_o the_o pope_n emperor_n and_o elective_a king_n it_o be_v true_a it_o be_v a_o dangerous_a opinion_n and_o aught_o to_o be_v a_o dangerous_a opinion_n to_o such_o personal_a pope_n emperor_n or_o
