the_o emperor_n shall_v not_o think_v of_o defer_v it_o long_o the_o previous_a ceremony_n be_v once_o past_a on_o the_o contrary_a the_o imperialist_n and_o spaniard_n offer_v to_o perform_v it_o in_o three_o week_n after_o the_o treaty_n because_o they_o will_v have_v time_n sufficient_a for_o he_o to_o demand_v it_o a_o new_a now_o although_o this_o formality_n seem_v to_o be_v only_o for_o

never_o look_v upon_o my_o master_n territory_n to_o be_v safe_a as_o long_o as_o the_o french_a have_v any_o foot_n in_o italy_n to_o obviate_v the_o ill_a apprehension_n he_o have_v upon_o this_o article_n it_o be_v offer_v that_o the_o number_n of_o the_o french_a admit_v into_o montferrat_n in_o case_n the_o duke_n of_o mantua_n will_v please_v to_o accept_v they_o shall_v be_v limit_v to_o

which_o will_v be_v enough_o to_o withhold_v we_o from_o any_o such_o practice_n as_o to_o the_o three_o point_n two_o difficulty_n arise_v first_o that_o the_o duke_n of_o savoy_n will_v have_v his_o division_n in_o such_o place_n as_o he_o like_v best_a in_o montferrat_n although_o that_o choice_n belong_v only_o to_o those_o that_o pay_n the_o second_o he_o always_o insist_v on_o the_o payment_n

right_o he_o claim_v to_o the_o say_a dominion_n fall_v to_o he_o whereby_o he_o will_v have_v exclude_v most_o of_o the_o prerogative_n the_o duke_n of_o mantua_n now_o enjoy_v although_o they_o be_v altogether_o hereditary_a by_o which_o mean_n instead_o of_o 15000_o crown_n a_o year_n he_o will_v have_v have_v above_o 50000._o to_o this_o the_o duke_n of_o mantua_n reply_v that_o those_o 15000_o

and_o do_v positive_o aver_v that_o if_o it_o be_v give_v any_o other_o way_n the_o duke_n of_o mantua_n must_v never_o expect_v to_o live_v in_o amity_n or_o peace_n with_o he_o as_o to_o the_o
