A32922	Thomas Campanella, an Italian friar and second Machiavel, his advice to the King of Spain for attaining the universal monarchy of the world particularly concerning England, Scotland and Ireland, how to raise division between king and Parliament, to alter the government from a kingdome to a commonwealth, thereby embroiling England in civil war to divert the English from disturbing the Spaniard in bringing the Indian treasure into Spain : also for reducing Holland by procuring war betwixt England, Holland, and other sea-faring countries ... / translated into English by Ed.

probable_o have_v be_v next_o to_o have_v be_v swallow_v up_o by_o they_o this_o very_a slowness_n of_o his_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o spaniard_n gain_v the_o less_o and_o be_v also_o the_o long_o hold_v in_o expectation_n and_o beside_o by_o gape_v in_o this_o manner_n after_o what_o belong_v to_o other_o become_v hate_v by_o all_o so_o true_a be_v that_o common_a say_v namely_o that_o there_o be_v no_o place_n inexpugnable_a into_o which_o a_o ass_n lade_v with_o gold_n can_v but_o get_v in_o but_o then_o this_o be_v also_o to_o be_v add_v to_o that_o say_v namely_o that_o that_o golden_a ass_n or_o that_o ass_n lade_v with_o gold_n must_v have_v many_o horse_n lade_v with_o iron_n to_o come_v after_o it_o that_o so_o while_o the_o citizen_n be_v all_o busy_v in_o weigh_v and_o tell_v out_o their_o money_n thou_o may_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n make_v use_n of_o thy_o iron_n in_o the_o subdue_a and_o take_v in_o of_o that_o place_n to_o this_o we_o may_v add_v that_o the_o spanish_a commander_n as_o well_o as_o the_o french_a play_v booty_n as_o we_o say_v neither_o of_o they_o fight_v for_o the_o victory_n but_o for_o gain_v only_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v because_o that_o neither_o the_o king_n himself_o nor_o his_o son_n be_v present_a in_o person_n in_o the_o army_n and_o beside_o the_o duke_n of_o parma_n dare_v not_o at_o first_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o war_n hazard_v all_o in_o a_o battle_n without_o command_n from_o the_o king_n by_o which_o mean_v the_o king_n of_o navarre_n have_v time_n give_v he_o to_o gain_v over_o to_o he_o the_o french_a nobility_n who_o the_o spaniard_n have_v before_o wrought_v over_o by_o his_o money_n to_o his_o side_n only_o by_o a_o opinion_n they_o have_v conceive_v of_o his_o

to_o they_o only_o which_o have_v be_v the_o ancient_a custom_n with_o the_o polonian_n persian_n and_o french_a and_o because_o that_o the_o noble_n think_v it_o a_o thing_n too_o much_o below_o they_o to_o march_v with_o foot_n soldier_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o these_o very_a nation_n have_v always_o be_v very_o strong_a in_o horse_n but_o have_v still_o be_v but_o weak_a in_o foot_n and_o see_v the_o business_n be_v come_v to_o this_o pass_n that_o the_o king_n of_o france_n have_v now_o win_v to_o himself_o the_o affection_n both_o of_o his_o subject_n the_o french_a and_o of_o the_o pope_n also_o and_o have_v thereby_o get_v himself_o more_o renown_n then_o if_o he_o have_v beat_v the_o king_n of_o spain_n himself_o it_o be_v now_o to_o be_v fear_v that_o he_o may_v sometime_o or_o other_o attempt_n to_o take_v in_o some_o part_n of_o spain_n also_o for_o he_o be_v of_o a_o turbulent_a unquiet_a spirit_n neither_o can_v the_o french_a hold_n while_o they_o have_v well_o settle_v a_o country_n that_o they_o have_v new_o take_v in_o but_o they_o must_v on_o still_o and_o fall_v upon_o some_o other_o and_o this_o the_o king_n of_o france_n must_v the_o rather_o do_v because_o that_o be_v out_o of_o money_n he_o be_v force_v to_o forage_v abroad_o and_o take_v from_o other_o that_o he_o may_v ha●e_v to_o pay_v his_o own_o man_n and_o therefore_o it_o will_v be_v

will_v be_v his_o prey_n let_v the_o king_n of_o spain_n therefore_o deal_v with_o the_o pope_n that_o he_o will_v interdict_v the_o king_n of_o france_n the_o contract_n of_o any_o league_n or_o

will_v be_v able_a to_o assist_v he_o very_o much_o let_v the_o pope_n also_o make_v he_o swear_v that_o he_o will_v go_v to_o the_o holy_a land_n and_o there_o join_v with_o the_o italian_n in_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o christian_a faith_n but_o the_o best_a course_n of_o all_o will_v be_v that_o the_o nobility_n of_o france_n and_o of_o italy_n shall_v all_o join_v together_o and_o shall_v
