any_o one_o that_o fall_v off_o and_o do_v not_o accomplish_v what_o he_o promise_v 2_o the_o second_o to_o prevent_v curb_n and_o bridle_v any_o other_o prince_n albeit_o not_o one_o of_o the_o league_n whensoever_o he_o offer_v to_o invade_v direct_o or_o indirect_o any_o of_o the_o confederate_a prince_n 3_o three_o to_o make_v quick_a war_n upon_o the_o common_a enemy_n as_o rebel_n

all_o such_o man_n as_o he_o have_v already_o leavy_v and_o pay_v or_o the_o great_a part_n of_o they_o can_v be_v to_o he_o no_o danger_n or_o loss_n but_o rather_o a_o most_o assure_a safety_n and_o
