be_v amiss_o if_o the_o state_n observe_v the_o same_o order_n write_v a_o letter_n to_o the_o marquis_n and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n another_o to_o the_o queen_n to_o press_v the_o affair_n and_o

of_o place_n as_o well_o to_o remove_v the_o french_a from_o your_o frontier_n as_o to_o leave_v the_o spaniard_n in_o a_o better_a condition_n of_o defend_v themselves_o against_o any_o new_a
