excellence_n desire_v will_v put_v the_o king_n of_o erance_n upon_o a_o absolute_a necessity_n of_o continue_v the_o war_n because_o if_o he_o shall_v comply_v after_o such_o a_o league_n make_v

and_o make_v he_o quit_v all_o hope_n of_o engage_v we_o by_o the_o force_n of_o his_o great_a genius_n to_o enter_v of_o our_o own_o accord_n where_o we_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o come_v but_o upon_o a_o fatal_a necessity_n i_o think_v his_o excellence_n do_v wrong_a to_o the_o king_n of_o great_a britain_n and_o the_o state_n in_o not_o trust_v their_o affection_n and_o their_o honour_n which_o be_v concern_v as_o well_o as_o their_o interest_n after_o the_o alliance_n and_o the_o peace_n they_o have_v already_o make_v together_o but_o if_o after_o his_o excellence_n have_v accept_v our_o proposition_n the_o king_n of_o france_n shall_v happen_v to_o draw_v back_o or_o seek_v evasion_n then_o the_o king_n of_o great_a britain_n and_o the_o state_n general_n enter_v into_o the_o party_n and_o even_o into_o a_o rupture_n with_o france_n it_o will_v be_v very_o just_a and_o proper_a to_o concert_v with_o his_o excellency_n after_o what_o manner_n to_o act_v in_o the_o territory_n of_o
