those_o of_o the_o west_n with_o their_o small_a number_n have_v always_o vanquish_v they_o of_o the_o east_n with_o their_o great_a number_n as_z appeareth_z by_o the_o war_n which_o the_o roman_n have_v make_v they_o if_o it_o be_v reply_v to_o i_o that_o the_o turk_n be_v at_o this_o day_n more_o valiant_a than_o be_v the_o ancient_a nation_n of_o the_o east_n as_o be_v issue_v out_o of_o the_o warlike_a nation_n inhabit_v the_o south_n i_o will_v thereunto_o answer_n and_o that_o by_o two_o reason_n the_o one_o be_v that_o how_o warlike_a soever_o the_o turk_n be_v suppose_v to_o be_v they_o have_v by_o the_o french_z oft_o time_n be_v vanquish_v as_o in_o the_o voyage_n which_o they_o make_v into_o levant_n under_o godfrey_n of_o boulogne_n when_o they_o conquer_v greece_n india_n and_o asia_n the_o less_o with_o their_o confine_n even_o to_o the_o mount_n taurus_n and_o not_o only_o so_o conquer_v those_o country_n but_o also_o themselves_o and_o their_o successor_n reign_v over_o they_o .26_o year_n in_o the_o end_n whereof_o those_o successor_n fall_v in_o division_n and_o band_v the_o one_o against_o the_o other_o and_o by_o that_o occasion_n they_o be_v all_o expulse_v thence_o my_o other_o reason_n be_v that_o it_o be_v very_o likely_a that_o the_o turk_n since_o they_o come_v from_o the_o south_n part_n to_o dwell_v in_o greece_n and_o other_o the_o east_n country_n be_v much_o degener_v from_o their_o natural_a and_o first_o nobleness_n as_o be_v the_o french_a that_o sometime_o go_v to_o dwell_v in_o that_o part_n of_o greece_n which_o after_o be_v call_v gallo_n grecia_n for_o the_o first_o that_o go_v thither_o be_v so_o brave_a so_o valiant_a and_o so_o warlike_a a_o people_n as_o they_o not_o only_o enjoy_v the_o country_n at_o their_o pleasure_n but_o by_o their_o virtue_n and_o valiance_n keep_v in_o awe_n all_o the_o king_n and_o country_n that_o be_v round_o about_o they_o so_o far_o forth_o as_o they_o be_v glad_a to_o yield_v they_o tribute_n for_o the_o enjoy_n of_o their_o favour_n but_o in_o process_n of_o time_n that_o race_n so_o degenered_a as_o attalus_n a_o king_n in_o asia_n first_o refuse_v the_o payment_n of_o the_o tribute_n by_o his_o predecessor_n before_o pay_v by_o who_o when_o they_o have_v long_o therefore_o assail_v he_o with_o war_n they_o be_v in_o the_o end_n overcome_v and_o after_o that_o they_o become_v every_o day_n more_o cowardly_a than_o other_o so_o as_o they_o be_v again_o vanquish_v by_o the_o roman_n under_o the_o conduct_n of_o captain_n manlius_n and_o what_o shall_v let_v your_o majesty_n from_o do_v as_o much_o as_o do_v sometime_o those_o of_o the_o french_a nation_n under_o the_o conduct_n of_o that_o gentle_a godfrey_n of_o boulogne_n see_v that_o the_o people_n of_o that_o country_n namely_o the_o greek_n desire_n nothing_o more_o than_o their_o cut_n off_o from_o their_o obedience_n to_o the_o turk_n which_o be_v a_o barbarous_a tyrant_n enemy_n to_o all_o
