whatever_o come_v from_o these_o minister_n at_o paris_n i_o think_v one_o may_v discover_v a_o irregular_a ambition_n under_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o affectation_n and_o disguise_n whereof_o god_n only_o know_v the_o issue_n for_o myself_o i_o will_v tell_v you_o in_o confidence_n and_o with_o my_o usual_a freedom_n my_o opinion_n in_o all_o this_o i_o think_v then_o in_o the_o first_o place_n that_o by_o all_o our_o negotiation_n though_o never_o so_o well_o manage_v by_o all_o our_o office_n and_o caress_n we_o shall_v never_o obtain_v a_o peace_n from_o france_n while_o they_o have_v any_o appearance_n of_o pursue_v their_o interest_n or_o their_o glory_n in_o carry_v on_o the_o war_n and_o that_o the_o only_a way_n of_o dispose_v they_o to_o a_o peace_n be_v to_o order_v it_o so_o as_o they_o may_v only_o find_v their_o interest_n in_o it_o which_o we_o can_v not_o otherwise_o do_v but_o by_o show_v they_o the_o strength_n of_o our_o force_n and_o the_o firmness_n of_o our_o resolution_n before_o the_o war_n begin_v and_o since_o we_o only_o draw_v a_o war_n on_o ourselves_o by_o desire_v a_o peace_n to_o endeavour_v on_o the_o contrary_a to_o draw_v on_o the_o peace_n by_o make_v all_o the_o appearance_n of_o desire_v a_o war._n therefore_o i_o think_v that_o what_o remain_v to_o be_v do_v be_v to_o advance_v as_o much_o as_o possible_a our_o preparation_n and_o force_n by_o sea_n and_o land_n and_o let_v the_o most_o christian_n king_n know_v by_o our_o minister_n that_o since_o his_o majesty_n still_o declare_v he_o be_v content_a with_o the_o alternative_a already_o accept_v by_o the_o marquis_n of_o castel-rodrigo_n and_o that_o all_o the_o difficulty_n his_o majesty_n find_v be_v only_o upon_o the_o power_n of_o the_o say_a marquis_n and_o the_o sincerity_n of_o intention_n in_o the_o court_n of_o spain_n we_o therefore_o desire_v his_o majesty_n to_o give_v we_o so_o much_o time_n by_o a_o suspension_n of_o arm_n as_o may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o send_v a_o dispatch_n to_o madrid_n and_o return_v to_o paris_n with_o a_o full_a and_o plain_a answer_n from_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n upon_o the_o alternative_a and_o true_o i_o think_v a_o month_n time_n will_v be_v sufficient_a after_o the_o dispatch_n of_o our_o express_v from_o paris_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n to_o add_v that_o if_o his_o majesty_n refuse_v we_o a_o demand_v so_o necessary_a to_o the_o peace_n of_o christendom_n and_o will_v still_o carry_v on_o his_o arm_n without_o consideration_n of_o the_o offer_v of_o spain_n or_o office_n of_o the_o ally_n that_o upon_o the_o first_o advances_n he_o shall_v make_v to_o attack_v the_o rest_n of_o flanders_n we_o will_v march_v with_o our_o force_n to_o defend_v it_o and_o endeavour_v further_o by_o all_o way_n to_o give_v he_o a_o diversion_n both_o by_o sea_n and_o land_n this_o i_o think_v be_v all_o that_o be_v leave_v we_o to_o do_v upon_o the_o present_a state_n of_o affair_n for_o obtain_v the_o peace_n and_o as_o to_o the_o inward_a disposition_n of_o the_o spaniard_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o that_o there_o be_v not_o one_o of_o they_o here_o of_o the_o least_o consideration_n who_o do_v not_o desire_v it_o and_o think_v it_o whole_o for_o the_o present_a interest_n of_o spain_n and_o the_o marquis_n assure_v i_o in_o confidence_n that_o he_o have_v not_o only_o the_o power_n exhibit_v but_o that_o the_o king_n his_o master_n have_v give_v he_o other_o by_o which_o he_o leave_v he_o absolute_a arbiter_n of_o the_o condition_n of_o the_o peace_n according_a as_o conjuncture_n shall_v serve_v to_o make_v he_o accept_v either_o a_o equal_a or_o a_o disadvantageous_a one_o and_o all_o the_o delay_n of_o don_n john_n seem_v only_o to_o proceed_v from_o their_o

than_o i_o have_v do_v already_o that_o his_o majesty_n have_v order_v i_o to_o give_v the_o guaranty_n in_o conjunction_n with_o the_o other_o confederate_n upon_o payment_n of_o two_o hundred_o
