the_o province_n of_o flanders_n be_v under_o the_o government_n thereof_o nor_o be_v this_o a_o bare_a union_n between_o prince_n and_o prince_n but_o it_o extend_v from_o nation_n to_o nation_n and_o almost_o from_o private_a man_n to_o private_a man_n so_o great_a be_v the_o consideration_n both_o of_o neighbourhood_n traffic_n and_o the_o conformity_n of_o government_n and_o of_o all_o

so_o near_o a_o conjunction_n nor_o ought_v the_o flemish_a to_o be_v ere_o a_o whit_n less_o assist_v by_o i_o out_o of_o justice_n than_o out_o of_o conveniency_n you_o see_v whether_o the_o

thereunto_o the_o design_n of_o oppress_a flanders_n be_v apparent_o see_v to_o the_o end_n that_o such_o force_n both_o by_o land_n and_o by_o sea_n may_v be_v plant_v there_o as_o may_v serve_v to_o

may_v then_o be_v safe_o conclude_v that_o he_o now_o make_v open_a war_n up_o on_o i_o not_o out_o of_o any_o true_a reason_n but_o out_o of_o a_o false_a pretence_n and_o that_o his_o true_a end_n
