why_o that_o prince_n who_o come_v to_o his_o kingdom_n by_o some_o of_o the_o nobility_n or_o senate_n shall_v more_o hardly_o keep_v it_o than_o another_o who_o obtain_v the_o crown_n by_o the_o

rather_o equal_a with_o the_o prince_n whereupon_o he_o can_v sway_v the_o sceptre_n as_o he_o list_v but_o must_v be_v glad_a in_o the_o most_o thing_n to_o be_v rule_v by_o they_o or_o may_v this_o rather_o be_v the_o reason_n for_o that_o it_o will_v be_v think_v the_o prince_n will_v 9_o will_v so_o fare_v it_o with_o the_o duke_n of_o buckingham_n in_o the_o time_n of_o richard_n the_o 3._o with_o charles_n the_o 8._o and_o lewis_n the_o 12._o king_n of_o france_n in_o the_o loss_n of_o milan_n etc._n etc._n as_o report_v mach._n prin._n cap._n 9_o never_o be_v able_a sufficient_o to_o

the_o first_o who_o will_v pull_v he_o down_o again_o or_o may_v this_o be_v the_o reason_n for_o that_o ibidem_fw-la that_o idem_fw-la ibidem_fw-la if_o the_o commons_o shall_v make_v head_n against_o the_o prince_n he_o can_v never_o be_v secure_v of_o his_o safety_n or_o retain_v of_o his_o kingdom_n because_o they_o will_v oppress_v he_o with_o multitude_n the_o nobility_n be_v but_o a_o handful_n to_o they_o 4_o it_o may_v further_o be_v demand_v wherefore_o it_o so_o much_o import_v a_o prince_n to_o manage_v his_o martial_a affair_n in_o his_o own_o person_n if_o he_o ever_o look_v to_o grow_v famous_a by_o his_o conquest_n be_v it_o because_o it_o famous_a it_o quint._n curt._n mach._n prin._n so_o alexander_n the_o great_a ferdinand_z king_n of_o spain_n and_o hen._n the_o 5._o king_n of_o eng._n become_v famous_a so_o much_o increase_v and_o augment_v his_o estimation_n and_o credit_n with_o foreign_a prince_n abroad_o and_o breed_v and_o beget_v he_o love_n and_o authority_n among_o his_o own_o people_n at_o home_n or_o may_v this_o be_v the_o reason_n for_o that_o by_o this_o mean_n all_o 30._o all_o mach._n disput_fw-la lib._n 1._o cap._n 30._o wrangle_a occasion_n and_o heartburning_n be_v cut_v off_o whereby_o a_o prince_n sometime_o prove_v ungrateful_a to_o man_n even_o of_o the_o best_a desert_n for_o when_o prince_n present_a and_o behave_v themselves_o brave_o in_o the_o field_n all_o the_o honour_n and_o glory_n thereof_o as_o it_o pertain_v so_o it_o redound_v unto_o they_o whereas_o otherwise_o if_o they_o be_v absent_a and_o commit_v the_o manage_n of_o those_o affair_n to_o their_o general_n they_o straight_o way_n imagine_v that_o if_o their_o force_n shall_v prevail_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o day_n shall_v rest_v with_o the_o general_n who_o lead_v the_o army_n and_o that_o themselves_o can_v never_o challenge_v any_o part_n of_o the_o victory_n get_v unless_o they_o extinguish_v the_o merit_n of_o the_o general_n or_o himself_o and_o by_o that_o mean_n prove_v unjust_a and_o ungrateful_a to_o their_o servant_n 5_o it_o may_v further_o be_v demand_v how_o a_o courtier_n may_v come_v to_o be_v much_o employ_v in_o his_o prince_n affair_n may_v he_o effect_v this_o if_o he_o guicch_n he_o guicch_n shall_v wait_v diligent_o and_o be_v always_o in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o prince_n or_o may_v he_o compass_v this_o the_o rather_o if_o once_o employ_v he_o manage_v that_o affair_n well_o for_o by_o this_o mean_n he_o shall_v both_o gain_v himself_o reputation_n and_o be_v think_v fit_a and_o able_a to_o deal_v in_o any_o business_n and_o be_v sure_a almost_o never_o to_o be_v out_o of_o action_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o dependency_n which_o other_o business_n have_v upon_o those_o wherein_o he_o former_o have_v be_v employ_v 6_o consider_v that_o by_o well_o or_o ill_a manage_n and_o handle_v of_o the_o affair_n of_o prince_n in_o negotiate_v for_o they_o with_o foreign_a prince_n either_o great_a good_a or_o great_a hurt_n may_v accrue_v to_o the_o prince_n and_o state_n it_o may_v be_v demand_v what_o manner_n of_o man_n a_o prince_n may_v chief_o employ_v for_o
