about_o sixty_o year_n ago_o what_o stupendous_a advances_n have_v she_o make_v and_o but_o for_o that_o check_v give_v by_o the_o mistake_a politic_n of_o extirpate_v protestant_n how_o much_o great_a might_n they_o not_o have_v be_v we_o may_v observe_v the_o same_o thing_n of_o portugal_n florence_n sweden_n and_o other_o but_o whereas_o they_o have_v be_v only_o under_o certain_a

past_o their_o zenith_n and_o decline_v i_o will_v observe_v that_o among_o the_o prince_n of_o all_o those_o nation_n before_o cite_v the_o wise_a and_o brave_a have_v give_v most_o encouragement_n to_o navigation_n and_o commerce_n and_o in_o the_o period_n they_o have_v have_v their_o high_a ascendant_n navigation_n and_o commerce_n have_v rather_o contribute_v as_o a_o cause_n than_o follow_v as_o a_o effect_v only_o from_o all_o which_o instance_n i_o infer_v there_o be_v nothing_o pertain_v to_o the_o essence_n of_o monarchy_n which_o contradict_v the_o argument_n plead_v for_o as_o to_o england_n if_o navigation_n be_v the_o source_n of_o her_o wealth_n and_o wall_n of_o her_o defence_n and_o after_o this_o war_n will_v be_v the_o only_a mean_n of_o maintain_v such_o a_o fleet_n in_o
