he_o say_v that_o the_o king_n of_o portugal_n his_o master_n be_v ally_v in_o a_o brotherly_a amity_n with_o the_o king_n of_o china_n by_o reason_n whereof_o they_o trade_v in_o his_o country_n as_o the_o chineses_n use_v to_o do_v at_o malaca_n where_o they_o be_v entertain_v with_o all_o favour_n and_o justice_n due_o minister_v unto_o they_o now_o though_o both_o these_o point_n be_v distasteful_a to_o the_o mandarin_n yet_o the_o last_o wherein_o he_o mention_v the_o king_n of_o portugal_n to_o be_v brother_n to_o the_o king_n of_o china_n be_v that_o which_o put_v he_o so_o
