true_a yet_o the_o course_n that_o the_o turk_n take_v be_v so_o blunt_a and_o plain_a that_o if_o he_o shall_v have_v but_o one_o overthrow_n so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o lusty_a one_o indeed_o it_o will_v prove_v his_o utter_a ruin_n as_o i_o have_v hint_v before_o since_o that_o he_o have_v no_o vice-roys_n or_o baron_n by_o who_o he_o may_v be_v recruit_v and_o make_v whole_a again_o but_o we_o can_v say_v so_o of_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n who_o in_o such_o a_o case_n will_v present_o be_v furnish_v with_o aide_n from_o the_o pope_n and_o the_o prince_n of_o italy_n and_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o union_n in_o point_n of_o religion_n i_o say_v moreover_o that_o he_o can_v suffer_v any_o notable_a overthrow_n unless_o it_o be_v by_o some_o very_a potent_a prince_n such_o a_o one_o as_o the_o great_a turk_n be_v who_o yet_o lie_v so_o very_o far_o remote_a from_o he_o as_o alexander_n the_o great_a of_o old_a do_v from_o the_o roman_n can_v so_o quick_o ruin_v he_o whereas_o on_o the_o contrary_a any_o peaceable_a agreement_n of_o the_o christian_n among_o themselves_o if_o so_o be_v it_o be_v but_o firm_a and_o last_a will_v utter_o confound_v the_o turk_n and_o therefore_o i_o say_v that_o although_o king_n philip_n kingdom_n lie_v scatter_v far_o and_o near_o yet_o his_o enemy_n also_o lie_v far_o asunder_o one_o from_o another_o and_o therefore_o it_o be_v clear_a that_o his_o emulator_n the_o italian_n tuscan_n and_o venetian_n will_v never_o enter_v into_o a_o combination_n against_o he_o unless_o he_o first_o give_v they_o some_o evident_a cause_n and_o wrong_v they_o very_o much_o neither_o indeed_o will_v the_o pope_n ever_o suffer_v any_o act_n of_o hostility_n to_o be_v do_v against_o his_o catholic_n majesty_n and_o beside_o it_o be_v also_o most_o certain_a that_o the_o catholic_n prince_n both_o out_o of_o fear_n of_o the_o heretic_n and_o also_o of_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o pope_n will_v never_o attempt_v any_o such_o thing_n and_o the_o heretic_n be_v at_o very_o great_a variance_n also_o among_o themselves_o and_o for_o this_o reason_n germany_n be_v divide_v into_o several_a small_a republic_n can_v do_v he_o any_o harm_n at_o all_o and_o it_o be_v beside_o part_n of_o it_o make_v subject_a to_o the_o house_n of_o austria_n and_o the_o archduke_n thereof_o by_o the_o emperor_n and_o part_v also_o to_o certain_a archbishop_n who_o be_v withal_o secular_a prince_n as_o namely_o the_o archbishop_n of_o mentz_n of_o colen_n trevers_n salsburg_n strasburg_n and_o bamberg_n and_o part_v also_o to_o the_o duke_n of_o bavaria_n so_o that_o the_o protestant_n can_v by_o no_o mean_n make_v any_o insurrection_n against_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n the_o low_a germany_n also_o be_v divide_v into_o more_o commonwealth_n than_o the_o other_o all_o which_o bear_v arm_n against_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n though_o it_o be_v only_o to_o defend_v themselves_o and_o not_o to_o offend_v he_o and_o of_o this_o number_n be_v the_o province_n of_o holland_n friesland_n and_o zealand_n beside_o the_o upper_a and_o the_o low_a germany_n differ_v very_o much_o in_o their_o religion_n which_o we_o may_v also_o say_v of_o the_o dane_n norwegian_n transylvanian_n gotlander_n polonian_n french_a swisser_n and_o grison_n so_o that_o the_o king_n have_v no_o need_n at_o all_o to_o fear_v that_o these_o shall_v ever_o all_o join_v together_o against_o he_o and_o beside_o the_o king_n retain_v a_o great_a part_n of_o these_o nation_n in_o pay_n and_o by_o that_o mean_n keep_v they_o his_o friend_n and_o then_o the_o king_n of_o poland_n and_o the_o prince_n of_o transylvania_n be_v ally_v to_o he_o by_o marriage_n and_o so_o be_v in_o league_n and_o amity_n with_o he_o so_o that_o he_o have_v no_o body_n to_o stand_v in_o fear_n of_o but_o only_o the_o king_n of_o france_n and_o the_o king_n of_o england_n which_o two_o prince_n by_o reason_n of_o their_o be_v of_o different_a religion_n can_v never_o agree_v together_o now_o although_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n can_v as_o yet_o subdue_v the_o king_n of_o france_n yet_o it_o make_v very_o much_o for_o his_o interest_n that_o the_o king_n of_o france_n be_v absolve_v by_o the_o pope_n be_v return_v again_o to_o the_o obedience_n of_o the_o church_n for_o otherwise_o he_o will_v have_v be_v the_o head_n of_o all_o the_o transalpine_a heretic_n and_o will_v have_v march_v with_o a_o army_n of_o they_o over_o into_o italy_n to_o the_o great_a prejudice_n both_o of_o the_o pope_n and_o of_o our_o king_n which_o none_o of_o the_o heretic_n have_v to_o this_o day_n adventure_v to_o do_v mere_o for_o want_v of_o a_o powerful_a general_n to_o head_n they_o then_o beside_o there_o be_v a_o division_n break_v out_o in_o france_n betwixt_o the_o catholic_n and_o the_o heretic_n and_o which_o be_v the_o chief_a thing_n of_o all_o there_o be_v in_o that_o kingdom_n many_o potent_a bishop_n who_o will_v not_o by_o any_o mean_n see_v spain_n ruin_v and_o last_o our_o king_n subject_n do_v not_o come_v into_o the_o field_n with_o lance_n sword_n and_o horse_n as_o the_o french_a use_n to_o do_v but_o they_o come_v into_o it_o arm_v with_o gun_n which_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o arm_n that_o be_v fit_a for_o the_o defend_n of_o strong_a hold_n and_o fortification_n then_o for_o the_o set_n upon_o a_o enemy_n in_o a_o open_a

which_o hiero_n king_n of_o syracuse_n heretofore_o labour_v to_o do_v betwixt_o the_o roman_n and_o the_o carthaginian_n although_o he_o fail_v of_o his_o purpose_n beside_o the_o king_n of_o

much_o soon_o in_o france_n with_o a_o army_n and_o shall_v so_o force_v he_o to_o return_v back_o again_o and_o defend_v his_o own_o kingdom_n neither_o do_v the_o king_n of_o france_n ever_o pass_v

and_o also_o in_o the_o pope_n himself_o although_o his_o own_o papal_a authority_n restore_v he_o again_o and_o therefore_o the_o spaniard_n have_v no_o need_n to_o fear_v the_o king_n of_o france_n much_o and_o as_o for_o the_o english_a he_o have_v much_o less_o reason_n to_o stand_v in_o fear_n of_o they_o see_v they_o be_v shut_v up_o within_o a_o island_n and_o we_o seldom_o see_v islander_n get_v any_o sure_a foot_n and_o make_v themselves_o master_n of_o any_o part_n of_o a_o foreign_a continent_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v sufficient_a for_o they_o if_o they_o can_v keep_v their_o
