it_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n impossible_a they_o shall_v forbear_v hence_o you_o may_v easy_o judge_v that_o no_o prince_n ought_v to_o have_v any_o kindness_n for_o they_o who_o love_v peace_n and_o

they_o will_v quick_o alter_v the_o present_a state_n of_o affair_n to_o bring_v it_o to_o their_o fashion_n and_o thus_o to_o confirm_v their_o absolute_a monarchy_n for_o though_o hitherto_o they_o
