almost_o all_o friuli_n with_o istria_n which_o be_v the_o utmost_a province_n of_o italy_n on_o that_o side_n they_o be_v also_o lord_n of_o the_o great_a part_n of_o dalmatia_n with_o the_o isle_n

if_o this_o be_v not_o sufficient_a to_o defray_v the_o public_a charge_n then_o the_o magistrate_n and_o public_a minister_n be_v oblige_v to_o wait_v for_o their_o salary_n and_o stipend_n till_o
