but_o will_v expect_v till_o the_o governor_n shall_v be_v somewhere_o abroad_o upon_o some_o exploit_n and_o some_o english_a ship_n or_o ship_n at_o least_o at_o amboyna_n the_o people_n whereof_o

their_o exploit_n and_o first_o for_o the_o japon_n in_o the_o castle_n we_o must_v believe_v if_o this_o author_n or_o his_o voucher_n say_v true_a that_o master_n towerson_n have_v acquaint_v

and_o to_o take_v the_o rest_n prisoner_n it_o must_v be_v therefore_o here_o imagine_v that_o the_o dutch_a and_o their_o mardiker_n in_o their_o castle_n be_v three_o or_o four_o hundred_o will_v
