for_o my_o proof_n of_o the_o first_o ground_n i_o will_v produce_v three_o head_n the_o first_o that_o the_o low_a country_n have_v not_o so_o long_o maintain_v war_n but_o with_o the_o help_n of_o

be_v it_o will_v grow_v more_o violent_a so_o the_o florentine_n can_v not_o quench_v the_o rebellion_n of_o the_o pisans_n before_o they_o have_v take_v away_o the_o matter_n which_o nourish_v that_o fire_n which_o come_v from_o stranger_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v all_o one_o action_n to_o take_v away_o their_o succour_n which_o come_v from_o confederate_n prince_n and_o to_o win_v the_o city_n which_o otherwise_o all_o their_o force_n and_o of_o their_o confederate_n will_v not_o have_v be_v able_a to_o effect_v for_o my_o second_o head_n say_v he_o i_o set_v down_o that_o england_n do_v not_o only_o maintain_v the_o rebellion_n of_o the_o nertherlands_n by_o send_v succour_n but_o also_o by_o her_o countenance_n for_o where_o as_o the_o netherlander_n see_v the_o force_n of_o spain_n convert_v against_o they_o they_o fly_v unto_o england_n as_o to_o a_o sanctuary_n know_v that_o the_o english_a will_v always_o take_v arm_n against_o any_o that_o shall_v invade_v they_o wherein_o

support_n which_o have_v maintain_v they_o in_o their_o insolence_n my_o three_o reason_n say_v he_o be_v that_o the_o burden_n of_o so_o long_a a_o war_n have_v so_o waste_v the_o spirit_n and_o faculty_n of_o the_o netherlander_n as_o they_o scarce_o have_v any_o pulse_n remain_v they_o have_v not_o only_o be_v cruel_a butcher_n of_o their_o own_o life_n but_o tyrant_n over_o their_o good_n
