i_o reply_v to_o he_o that_o the_o prince_n of_o conty_n and_o the_o marshal_n of_o turenne_n have_v implore_v the_o king_n clemency_n and_o be_v return_v to_o their_o duty_n with_o the_o great_a submission_n without_o pretend_v any_o thing_n and_o without_o any_o other_o condition_n than_o that_o of_o be_v re-establish_v in_o the_o honour_n of_o his_o favour_n that_o as_o to_o hoquincourt_n and_o foucaut_n the_o king_n have_v do_v what_o the_o exigency_n of_o his_o service_n require_v and_o that_o i_o well_o see_v that_o spain_n can_v have_v wish_v any_o thing_n else_o to_o the_o end_n the_o first_o deliver_v they_o peronne_n monsieur_n the_o prince_n may_v have_v the_o liberty_n of_o range_v as_o far_o as_o the_o gate_n of_o paris_n and_o that_o the_o other_o money_n other_o beside_o the_o marshal_n staff_n he_o have_v fifty_o thousand_o lovis_n dor_n give_v he_o in_o ready_a money_n hold_v firm_a in_o brovage_n and_o the_o isle_n of_o oleron_n it_o shall_v be_v impossible_a for_o we_o to_o end_v the_o civil_a war_n to_o recover_v all_o the_o place_n of_o the_o kingdom_n which_o she_o have_v make_v we_o to_o lose_v and_o to_o reduce_v guienne_n and_o other_o province_n as_o have_v be_v do_v that_o as_o to_o the_o rest_n it_o be_v true_a the_o french_a be_v more_o prone_a than_o the_o spaniard_n to_o fail_v in_o their_o duty_n but_o that_o the_o king_n far_o from_o encourage_v they_o by_o too_o much_o mildness_n to_o hold_v always_o this_o ill_a conduct_n have_v always_o use_v they_o with_o the_o great_a rigour_n when_o the_o welfare_n of_o their_o service_n have_v not_o oblige_v they_o to_o do_v otherwise_o that_o herein_o they_o vary_v not_o in_o france_n from_o the_o manner_n be_v use_v in_o spain_n see_v when_o they_o can_v not_o remedy_v rebellion_n and_o insurrection_n which_o happen_v they_o have_v patience_n as_o be_v apparent_a in_o relation_n to_o the_o portuguese_n and_o catalonian_o who_o have_v be_v always_o seek_v to_o and_o offer_v not_o only_o a_o pardon_n but_o moreover_o new_a privilege_n and_o great_a recompense_n to_o those_o of_o the_o country_n who_o have_v most_o credit_n in_o fine_a i_o hereunto_o add_v the_o example_n of_o the_o hollander_n who_o have_v maintain_v their_o rebellion_n to_o the_o end_n have_v at_o length_n be_v acknowledge_v by_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n for_o free_a and_o independent_a state_n and_o their_o ambassador_n treat_v as_o those_o of_o sovereign_n and_o i_o conclude_v that_o if_o more_o rebellion_n and_o revolting_n be_v see_v in_o france_n than_o in_o spain_n this_o mishap_n be_v somewhat_o lessen_v by_o the_o facility_n wherewith_o the_o french_a return_v to_o their_o duty_n which_o can_v not_o be_v say_v of_o the_o subject_n of_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n who_o have_v once_o throw_v off_o the_o yoke_n never_o return_v to_o their_o obedience_n again_o but_o by_o force_n as_o appear_v sufficient_o by_o the_o example_n of_o the_o hollander_n who_o be_v peaceable_a possessor_n of_o several_a province_n which_o be_v the_o patrimony_n of_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n not_o a_o age_n past_a that_o all_o the_o revolt_v which_o have_v happen_v in_o france_n have_v not_o yet_o cause_v the_o king_n to_o lose_v a_o thumb_n breadth_n of_o land_n who_o on_o the_o contrary_a by_o the_o apparent_a blessing_n of_o god_n have_v extend_v on_o all_o hand_n the_o limit_n of_o his_o kingdom_n maugre_o the_o union_n of_o so_o many_o prince_n and_o parliament_n who_o have_v conspire_v the_o ruin_n of_o the_o state_n so_o that_o the_o proneness_n of_o the_o french_a in_o fail_v in_o their_o duty_n be_v correct_v by_o the_o facility_n of_o their_o return_n whereas_o if_o the_o subject_n of_o spain_n do_v more_o rare_o forget_v themselves_o yet_o when_o they_o do_v it_o they_o as_o seldom_o return_v i_o well_o perceive_v this_o discourse_n rack_v don_n lewis_n and_o i_o tell_v he_o i_o be_v trouble_v he_o have_v oblige_v i_o to_o it_o but_o the_o honour_n of_o france_n and_o that_o of_o the_o king_n require_v it_o in_o fine_a show_v some_o emotion_n he_o speak_v to_o i_o again_o in_o more_o earnest_a term_n of_o the_o satisfaction_n of_o

adjust_v all_o the_o rest_n will_v be_v easy_o accord_v in_o one_o single_a conference_n it_o be_v here_o that_o i_o judge_v it_o conduce_v to_o the_o good_a success_n of_o this_o negotiation_n for_o the_o service_n and_o dignity_n of_o the_o king_n and_o to_o know_v the_o bottom_n of_o don_n lewis_n heart_n to_o transport_v myself_o by_o address_n in_o raise_v a_o little_a my_o voice_n i_o tell_v he_o then_o sir_n you_o speak_v with_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o liberty_n and_o freedom_n on_o the_o subject_n of_o monsieur_n the_o prince_n which_o you_o regard_v as_o the_o principal_a decision_n of_o this_o whole_a affair_n for_o my_o part_n i_o must_v declare_v to_o you_o that_o have_v suffer_v more_o patient_o than_o i_o ought_v four_o conference_n to_o be_v take_v up_o in_o contest_v a_o thing_n already_o adjust_v in_o the_o treaty_n of_o peace_n sign_v at_o paris_n and_o ratify_v without_o therein_o change_v a_o word_n that_o the_o king_n will_v do_v nothing_o beyond_o what_o i_o

conserence_n you_o will_v obtain_v nothing_o more_o of_o i_o because_o his_o majesty_n will_v never_o consent_v that_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n shall_v give_v the_o prince_n a_o recompense_n which_o may_v serve_v as_o a_o monument_n to_o posterity_n of_o his_o rebellion_n and_o of_o pernicious_a example_n to_o person_n of_o his_o rank_n to_o engage_v themselves_o in_o the_o service_n of_o spain_n against_o the_o king_n and_o their_o country_n to_o gain_v like_o recompense_n he_o will_v have_v interrupt_v i_o here_o but_o entreat_v he_o to_o let_v i_o to_o go_v on_o i_o continue_v to_o say_v to_o he_o that_o monsieur_n the_o prince_n must_v resolve_v as_o i_o have_v several_a time_n affirm_v to_o become_v whole_o a_o frenchman_n or_o whole_o a_o spaniard_n that_o the_o king_n will_v never_o suffer_v he_o shall_v receive_v from_o his_o catholick-majesty_n other_o gratification_n than_o that_o i_o already_o mention_v that_o it_o not_o be_v reasonable_a christendom_n shall_v long_o remain_v plunge_v in_o the_o abyss_n of_o misery_n wherein_o a_o long_a war_n have_v throw_v it_o for_o the_o interest_n more_o or_o less_o of_o a_o particular_a person_n to_o who_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o peace_n the_o king_n have_v part_v with_o a_o thousand_o time_n more_o favour_n than_o he_o ought_v and_o the_o success_n of_o the_o affair_n of_o this_o kingdom_n permit_v beside_o justice_n require_v the_o king_n shall_v use_v towards_o the_o prince_n the_o same_o manner_n as_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n will_v use_v in_o relation_n to_o portugal_n otherwise_o i_o well_o see_v with_o a_o sensible_a displeasure_n that_o the_o consideration_n of_o monsieur_n the_o prince_n which_o have_v already_o hinder_v three_o year_n before_o the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o peace_n at_o

on_o this_o point_n i_o will_v yield_v myself_o in_o the_o end_n it_o be_v impossible_a for_o i_o to_o resolve_v to_o return_v without_o the_o work_n of_o the_o peace_n receive_v its_o perfection_n lest_o i_o incur_v the_o hatred_n of_o the_o people_n i_o therefore_o declare_v to_o he_o that_o though_o it_o be_v true_a i_o shall_v be_v great_o grieve_v in_o not_o succeed_v in_o a_o affair_n so_o much_o desire_v of_o all_o the_o world_n yet_o i_o shall_v return_v with_o this_o consolation_n that_o no_o body_n can_v with_o the_o least_o show_n of_o reason_n impute_v to_o i_o the_o fault_n of_o the_o rapture_n of_o the_o peace_n for_o the_o conclusion_n of_o which_o i_o have_v so_o happy_o labour_v at_o paris_n that_o i_o believe_v the_o king_n may_v expect_v from_o the_o divine_a goodness_n in_o the_o continuation_n of_o the_o war_n the_o same_o advantage_n and_o it_o may_v be_v great_a than_o those_o have_v
carriage_n very_o complaisant_a and_o in_o fine_a such_o a_o one_o as_o be_v necessary_a to_o beget_v a_o good_a opinion_n of_o he_o i_o add_v that_o by_o this_o particular_a knowledge_n which_o i_o have_v of_o monsieur_n the_o prince_n i_o may_v tell_v he_o in_o the_o first_o place_n that_o his_o excellency_n will_v find_v himself_o much_o weary_v be_v he_o to_o endure_v all_o the_o

he_o in_o some_o sort_n or_o other_o the_o advantage_n he_o solicit_v and_o that_o i_o be_v sure_a his_o excellency_n know_v this_o as_o well_o as_o i._o it_o be_v than_o he_o reply_v to_o i_o will_v you_o have_v a_o prince_n of_o his_o merit_n return_v into_o france_n without_o reputation_n without_o any_o place_n office_n or_o government_n how_o will_v you_o have_v he_o live_v i_o brisk_o answer_v he_o as_o five_o hundred_o other_o prince_n of_o the_o blood_n who_o without_o attempt_v any_o thing_n against_o the_o king_n and_o the_o state_n have_v yet_o never_o have_v any_o government_n or_o office_n that_o most_o of_o the_o prince_n of_o the_o blood_n only_o desire_v they_o to_o do_v mischief_n there_o be_v therefore_o great_a reason_n not_o to_o give_v they_o they_o for_o their_o security_n and_o the_o receive_a mark_n of_o respect_n from_o all_o frenchman_n they_o need_v only_o to_o live_v well_o and_o serve_v the_o king_n faithful_o as_o they_o be_v hereunto_o oblige_v more_o than_o any_o other_o subject_n here_o he_o offer_v i_o a_o thousand_o flattery_n and_o say_v to_o i_o see_v you_o be_v not_o willing_a we_o shall_v give_v mounsteur_n the_o prince_n place_n in_o sovereignty_n can_v i_o not_o at_o least_o obtain_v from_o the_o king_n to_o give_v he_o some_o state_n as_o the_o two_o calabria_n or_o the_o kingdom_n of_o sardaignia_n i_o tell_v he_o i_o scarce_o believe_v he_o in_o earnest_n and_o that_o he_o dexterous_o make_v i_o these_o offer_v to_o show_v the_o prince_n follower_n the_o desire_n the_o king_n his_o master_n have_v to_o do_v great_a thing_n for_o he_o know_v well_o it_o will_v cost_v he_o nothing_o in_o the_o end_n there_o be_v no_o likelihood_n that_o the_o king_n will_v consent_v that_o the_o prince_n shall_v have_v this_o establishment_n return_v into_o france_n to_o which_o i_o yet_o add_v that_o if_o monsieur_n the_o prince_n take_v with_o the_o present_a of_o a_o kingdom_n will_v receive_v it_o from_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n i_o will_v consent_v to_o it_o he_o reply_v to_o i_o that_o in_o this_o case_n monsieur_n the_o duke_n d'anguienne_n may_v return_v into_o france_n to_o keep_v there_o the_o place_n of_o his_o father_n and_o enjoy_v whatever_o the_o king_n shall_v consent_v to_o restore_v to_o mounseur_fw-fr the_o prince_n but_o i_o reply_v to_o he_o that_o herein_o the_o father_n and_o son_n be_v the_o same_o and_o that_o such_o a_o kind_n of_o division_n will_v be_v on_o a_o thousand_o account_n prejudicial_a to_o the_o crown_n of_o france_n and_o i_o conclude_v that_o his_o excellency_n must_v resolve_v to_o give_v some_o considerable_a sum_n of_o money_n to_o monsieur_n the_o prince_n with_o which_o he_o may_v buy_v a_o considerable_a estate_n in_o land_n which_o will_v remain_v to_o he_o and_o his_o heir_n for_o ever_o and_o will_v be_v more_o advantageous_a than_o place_n which_o he_o must_v lose_v when_o he_o die_v but_o he_o like_v not_o this_o say_v that_o if_o they_o give_v he_o money_n it_o will_v be_v a_o gratification_n and_o not_o a_o recompense_n for_o the_o service_n he_o have_v do_v and_o what_o he_o have_v lose_v in_o france_n in_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o discourse_n he_o be_v so_o transport_v as_o to_o say_v that_o his_o master_n will_v have_v no_o ally_n after_o the_o promise_v he_o have_v make_v to_o monsieur_n the_o prince_n shall_v he_o abandon_v he_o and_o suffer_v he_o to_o be_v strip_v of_o whatever_o may_v render_v he_o and_o have_v heretofore_o render_v he_o considerable_a to_o france_n i_o answer_v he_o three_o thing_n the_o first_o that_o subject_n who_o revolt_v against_o their_o king_n and_o put_v themselves_o under_o the_o protection_n of_o another_o shall_v never_o be_v term_v ally_n because_o this_o term_n be_v only_o applicable_a to_o sovereign_a prince_n who_o be_v at_o liberty_n to_o ally_n themselves_o and_o to_o do_v whatever_o they_o think_v good_a the_o second_o that_o we_o have_v great_a interest_n to_o use_v all_o our_o endeavour_n to_o treat_v these_o ally_n in_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o may_v not_o be_v easy_a for_o the_o crown_n of_o spain_n to_o have_v any_o of_o they_o for_o the_o future_a the_o three_o that_o the_o king_n be_v earnest_a desire_n for_o peace_n make_v he_o lay_v aside_o all_o those_o regard_n to_o portugal_n which_o spain_n affect_v to_o have_v for_o the_o prince_n the_o conclusion_n of_o my_o discourse_n be_v that_o we_o shall_v once_o for_o all_o end_n this_o astair_n that_o whatever_o respect_v the_o interest_n of_o monsieur_n the_o prince_n have_v be_v whole_o

the_o king_n of_o spain_n shall_v give_v the_o prince_n to_o which_o the_o king_n will_v be_v oblige_v to_o consent_v provide_v it_o be_v not_o prejudicial_a to_o his_o majesty_n and_o contrary_a to_o what_o have_v be_v stipulate_v by_o the_o article_n of_o the_o treaty_n concern_v this_o matter_n don_n lewis_n end_v the_o conference_n in_o say_v to_o i_o that_o he_o will_v think_v again_o on_o the_o quality_n and_o form_n of_o this_o gratification_n which_o he_o still_o call_v a_o recompense_n and_o that_o he_o hope_v we_o may_v agree_v upon_o it_o the_o first_o time_n we_o shall_v see_v one_o another_o which_o be_v refer_v to_o saturday_n i_o shall_v not_o enter_v on_o a_o particular_a relation_n of_o what_o pass_v on_o divers_a other_o point_n because_o those_o which_o we_o agree_v on_o be_v not_o of_o great_a consequence_n and_o there_o be_v nothing_o conclude_v on_o other_o neither_o will_v i_o tell_v you_o that_o he_o omit_v no_o occasion_n to_o speak_v of_o the_o king_n in_o the_o most_o oblige_a term_n imaginable_a and_o express_v himself_o always_o on_o the_o match_n as_o if_o already_o conclude_v and_o in_o the_o last_o place_n he_o tell_v i_o that_o the_o infanta_n person_n will_v be_v well_o like_v of_o in_o france_n and_o that_o the_o beauty_n of_o her_o mind_n be_v no_o whit_n inferior_a to_o that_o of_o her_o body_n we_o resolve_v afresh_o that_o to_o

even_o go_v over_o again_o certain_a point_n on_o which_o they_o shall_v agree_v together_o as_o be_v not_o of_o the_o great_a consequence_n but_o be_v inform_v by_o a_o letter_n which_o monsieur_n

which_o i_o shall_v perceive_v by_o his_o conduct_n what_o success_n we_o may_v expect_v from_o this_o affair_n and_o have_v instruct_v mounseur_fw-fr de_fw-fr lionne_fw-fr in_o the_o thing_n i_o think_v needful_a for_o he_o to_o insinuate_v to_o don_n pedro_n coloma_n that_o by_o this_o channel_n they_o may_v come_v to_o don_n lewis_n he_o have_v very_o well_o execute_v it_o to_o the_o tell_v he_o i_o be_v afraid_a monsieur_n the_o prince_n will_v prove_v fatal_a to_o christendom_n and_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o not_o make_v that_o peace_n at_o madrid_n which_o be_v determine_v and_o agree_v on_o at_o paris_n i_o believe_v it_o be_v fit_a their_o majesty_n shall_v know_v my_o opinion_n in_o this_o matter_n which_o be_v that_o don_n lewis_n of_o his_o own_o humour_n and_o by_o

lainet_n and_o other_o adherent_n of_o this_o prince_n in_o the_o second_o place_n i_o believe_v that_o lainet_n by_o his_o manner_n of_o act_v have_v get_v some_o ascendant_n over_o the_o spirit_n of_o don_n lewis_n see_v he_o have_v not_o the_o power_n to_o determine_v
by_o the_o father_n of_o this_o duke_n to_o be_v keep_v against_o powerful_a enemy_n who_o will_v have_v deprive_v he_o of_o it_o that_o don_n lewis_n know_v all_o this_o duchy_n go_v always_o under_o
