guard_n upon_o all_o such_o place_n of_o his_o dominion_n as_o lie_v open_a to_o their_o incursion_n lest_o otherwise_o the_o english_a shall_v chance_v to_o seize_v upon_o they_o and_o such_o be_v the_o haven_n corugna_fw-la and_o all_o the_o sea_n coast_n of_o galicia_n leon_n biscay_n and_o all_o the_o kingdom_n that_o lie_v in_o the_o other_o hemisphere_n as_o shall_v be_v show_v hereafter_o but_o this_o he_o must_v make_v his_o chief_a business_n namely_o to_o weaken_v the_o power_n of_o the_o english_a for_o the_o effect_n of_o which_o design_n it_o will_v be_v sufficient_a if_o he_o can_v but_o bring_v it_o about_o that_o the_o hollander_n and_o the_o freezlander_n shall_v with_o their_o fleet_n fall_v upon_o the_o english_a force_n at_o sea_n as_o i_o shall_v by_o and_o by_o make_v it_o plain_o appear_v but_o see_v he_o be_v so_o far_o from_o do_v this_o that_o his_o own_o navy_n be_v very_o often_o damage_v by_o the_o english_a ship_n the_o only_a remedy_n that_o be_v leave_v he_o be_v to_o provide_v himself_o of_o some_o vast_a fleet_n of_o ship_n which_o shall_v lie_v at_o corugna_fw-la and_o lisbon_n that_o when_o ever_o the_o spanish_a fleet_n shall_v return_v from_o the_o indies_n they_o may_v serve_v as_o convoy_n to_o it_o and_o may_v bring_v it_o home_o safe_o or_o else_o they_o may_v be_v send_v forth_o either_o against_o ireland_n or_o england_n and_o so_o may_v divert_v they_o from_o lie_v in_o wait_n for_o and_o infest_v of_o the_o spanish_a navy_n and_o because_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n be_v to_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o sea_n it_o be_v very_o necessary_a that_o he_o build_v himself_o many_o wooden_a city_n that_o be_v to_o say_v great_a navy_n for_o the_o secure_n of_o his_o treasure_n that_o he_o recieve_v out_o of_o the_o new_a world_n it_o will_v also_o be_v a_o very_a good_a course_n for_o he_o to_o hire_v those_o that_o be_v of_o the_o great_a strength_n among_o the_o hollander_n though_o it_o cost_v he_o a_o million_o of_o money_n to_o guard_v such_o fleet_n of_o he_o as_o be_v to_o pass_v to_o and_o fro_o in_o the_o northern_a sea_n and_o to_o deal_v in_o the_o like_a manner_n with_o such_o nation_n as_o be_v better_o skill_v in_o nautical_a affair_n than_o the_o english_a themselves_o be_v as_o namely_o the_o danzioker_n by_o mean_n of_o the_o king_n of_o poland_n who_o be_v ally_v to_o the_o house_n of_o austria_n likewise_o with_o the_o gutlander_n swede_n finlander_n and_o the_o rest_n that_o be_v of_o scandinavia_n denmark_n pomerania_n and_o borussia_n procure_v they_o to_o declare_v against_o the_o english_a and_o either_o to_o set_v upon_o some_o of_o their_o island_n or_o else_o to_o invade_v england_n itself_o that_o so_o they_o may_v divert_v they_o from_o fall_v upon_o the_o spanish_a fleet_n or_o else_o if_o the_o king_n shall_v think_v it_o better_o to_o set_v upon_o the_o english_a navy_n itself_o if_o i_o say_v he_o will_v but_o be_v at_o so_o great_a a_o charge_n as_o to_o hire_v the_o say_a nation_n to_o fall_v upon_o the_o english_a and_o will_v beside_o but_o give_v they_o all_o the_o booty_n that_o they_o shall_v take_v from_o the_o english_a he_o may_v compass_v all_o his_o desire_n and_o beside_o the_o seed_n of_o such_o a_o feud_n once_o sow_o will_v spread_v far_o and_o near_o and_o will_v never_o be_v kill_v and_o choke_v again_o and_o therefore_o i_o conceive_v that_o money_n alone_o will_v be_v able_a to_o set_v these_o people_n at_o variance_n and_o make_v they_o fall_v foul_a one_o upon_o the_o other_o and_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o england_n stand_v in_o fear_n of_o no_o other_o nation_n so_o much_o as_o of_o those_o above_o name_v because_o they_o be_v both_o more_o fierce_a and_o more_o populous_a nation_n and_o also_o more_o powerful_a at_o sea_n than_o the_o english_a themselves_o be_v for_o spain_n can_v itself_o make_v any_o considerable_a opposition_n against_o the_o english_a unless_o it_o be_v by_o makig_a use_n of_o some_o such_o artifice_n see_v that_o they_o be_v better_o acquaint_v with_o those_o northern_a sea_n than_o the_o spanish_a be_v and_o then_o england_n be_v a_o island_n who_o inhabitant_n be_v both_o very_a numerous_n and_o they_o be_v also_o a_o diligent_a and_o subtle_a people_n and_o it_o be_v beside_o very_o strong_o fortify_v both_o by_o sea_n and_o land_n and_o withal_o a_o deadly_a enemy_n to_o spain_n partly_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o different_a religion_n and_o partly_o because_o the_o english_a claim_n a_o kind_n of_o right_n to_o that_o crown_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o castilian_a line_n which_o be_v derive_v by_o the_o house_n of_o lancaster_n beside_o diverse_a of_o the_o former_a king_n of_o england_n of_o the_o family_n of_o york_n and_o other_o have_v be_v ally_v to_o spain_n now_o as_o concern_v the_o weaken_n of_o the_o english_a there_o can_v no_o better_a way_n possible_o be_v find_v out_o then_o by_o cause_v division_n and_o dissension_n among_o themselves_o and_o by_o continual_o keep_v up_o the_o same_o which_o will_v quick_o furnish_v the_o spaniard_n with_o better_a and_o more_o advantageous_a opportunity_n and_o as_o for_o the_o religion_n of_o that_o people_n it_o be_v that_o of_o calvin_n though_o very_o much_o moderate_v and_o not_o so_o rigid_a and_o austere_a as_o it_o be_v at_o geneva_n which_o yet_o can_v so_o easy_o be_v extinguish_v and_o root_v out_o there_o unless_o there_o be_v some_o certain_a school_n set_v up_o in_o flanders_n with_o which_o people_n the_o english_a have_v very_o great_a commerce_n by_o mean_n of_o which_o there_o shall_v be_v scatter_v abroad_o the_o seed_n of_o schism_n and_o division_n in_o the_o natural_a science_n as_o namely_o betwixt_o the_o stoic_n peripatetic_n and_o telesians_n by_o which_o the_o error_n of_o the_o calvinist_n may_v be_v make_v manifest_a for_o the_o truth_n of_o it_o be_v that_o sect_n be_v diametrical_o contrary_a to_o the_o rule_n of_o policy_n for_o they_o teach_v that_o whether_o a_o man_n do_v well_o or_o ill_o he_o do_v all_o by_o divine_a impulsion_n which_o plato_n demonstrate_v against_o homer_n to_o be_v opposite_a to_o all_o sound_a policy_n which_o say_v that_o every_o man_n have_v free_a liberty_n of_o will_n either_o to_o do_v well_o or_o ill_o so_o that_o it_o be_v in_o our_o own_o power_n either_o to_o

they_o have_v become_v heretic_n be_v grow_v somewhat_o subtle_a in_o and_o yet_o be_v of_o a_o nature_n that_o be_v still_o desirous_a of_o novelty_n and_o change_v they_o be_v easy_o wrought_v over_o to_o any_o thing_n as_o concern_v their_o dominion_n and_o private_a estate_n the_o english_a be_v divide_v and_o live_v in_o several_a country_n whence_o some_o time_n or_o other_o the_o spaniard_n may_v easy_o light_v upon_o some_o convenient_a opportunity_n of_o advantage_n against_o they_o for_o the_o king_n of_o england_n dominion_n be_v divide_v into_o ireland_n and_o england_n which_o together_o with_o scotland_n make_v up_o the_o isle_n of_o great_a britain_n now_o scotland_n itself_o have_v also_o many_o small_a island_n belong_v to_o it_o which_o be_v call_v the_o orcades_n and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o isle_n of_o great_a britain_n have_v always_o two_o king_n reign_v over_o it_o namely_o one_o of_o they_o be_v king_n of_o england_n and_o the_o other_o of_o scotland_n who_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o lie_v so_o near_o to_o each_o other_o be_v in_o a_o manner_n continual_o at_o war_n and_o invade_v one_o another_o territory_n for_o their_o kingdom_n be_v sever_v only_o by_o a_o little_a small_a river_n and_o some_o few_o hill_n but_o now_o the_o king_n of_o scot_n hover_v as_o it_o be_v at_o this_o time_n over_o england_n not_o only_o by_o reason_n of_o his_o neighbourhood_n to_o it_o but_o also_o because_o of_o his_o right_n of_o succession_n for_o his_o mother_n be_v niece_n to_o king_n henry_n the_o eight_o who_o be_v father_n to_o queen_n elizabeth_n that_o now_o reign_v and_o if_o we_o shall_v confess_v the_o truth_n there_o be_v none_o so_o near_o in_o blood_n to_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n as_o he_o be_v and_o therefore_o the_o time_n now_o draw_v on_o that_o after_o the_o death_n of_o the_o say_a queen_n elizabeth_n who_o be_v now_o very_o old_a the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n must_v fall_v into_o the_o hand_n of_o their_o ancient_n and_o continual_a rival_n the_o scot_n we_o may_v here_o add_v that_o the_o peer_n of_o the_o

another_o error_n in_o this_o point_n in_o that_o by_o his_o slowness_n he_o give_v the_o king_n of_o navarre_n time_n to_o make_v over_o to_o his_o party_n the_o prince_n of_o italy_n and_o the_o pope_n only_o by_o make_v they_o believe_v that_o he_o intend_v to_o abjure_v the_o protestant_a religion_n and_o turn_v catholic_n beside_o that_o those_o prince_n do_v likewise_o consider_v that_o when_o france_n be_v once_o subdue_v by_o the_o spaniard_n who_o they_o know_v very_o well_o to_o gape_v earnest_o after_o a_o universal_a monarchy_n their_o own_o turn_v will_v probable_o have_v be_v next_o to_o have_v be_v swallow_v up_o by_o they_o this_o very_a slowness_n of_o his_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o the_o spaniard_n gain_v the_o less_o and_o be_v also_o the_o long_o hold_v in_o expectation_n and_o beside_o by_o gape_v in_o this_o manner_n after_o what_o belong_v to_o other_o become_v hate_v by_o all_o so_o true_a be_v that_o common_a say_v namely_o that_o there_o be_v no_o place_n inexpugnable_a into_o which_o a_o ass_n lade_v with_o gold_n can_v but_o get_v in_o but_o then_o this_o be_v also_o to_o be_v add_v to_o that_o say_v namely_o that_o that_o golden_a ass_n or_o that_o ass_n lade_v with_o gold_n must_v have_v many_o horse_n lade_v with_o iron_n to_o come_v after_o it_o that_o so_o while_o the_o citizen_n be_v all_o busy_v in_o weigh_v and_o tell_v out_o their_o money_n thou_o may_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n make_v use_n of_o thy_o iron_n in_o the_o subdue_a and_o take_v in_o of_o that_o place_n to_o this_o we_o may_v add_v that_o the_o spanish_a

that_o neither_o the_o king_n himself_o nor_o his_o son_n be_v present_a in_o person_n in_o the_o army_n and_o beside_o the_o duke_n of_o parma_n dare_v not_o at_o first_o in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o war_n hazard_v all_o in_o a_o battle_n without_o command_n from_o the_o king_n by_o which_o mean_v the_o king_n of_o navarre_n have_v time_n give_v he_o to_o gain_v over_o to_o he_o the_o french_a nobility_n who_o the_o spaniard_n have_v before_o wrought_v over_o by_o his_o money_n to_o his_o side_n only_o by_o a_o opinion_n they_o have_v conceive_v of_o his_o military_a valour_n and_o in_o this_o he_o imitate_v those_o other_o most_o valiant_a prince_n who_o neglect_v the_o common_a people_n make_v it_o their_o only_a business_n to_o oblige_v the_o noble_n to_o they_o only_o which_o have_v be_v the_o ancient_a custom_n with_o the_o polonian_n persian_n and_o french_a and_o because_o that_o the_o noble_n think_v it_o a_o thing_n too_o much_o below_o they_o to_o march_v with_o foot_n soldier_n hence_o it_o be_v that_o these_o very_a nation_n have_v always_o be_v very_o strong_a in_o horse_n but_o have_v still_o be_v but_o weak_a in_o foot_n and_o see_v the_o business_n be_v come_v to_o this_o pass_n that_o the_o king_n of_o france_n have_v now_o win_v to_o himself_o the_o affection_n both_o of_o his_o subject_n the_o french_a and_o of_o the_o pope_n also_o and_o have_v thereby_o get_v himself_o more_o renown_n then_o if_o he_o have_v beat_v the_o king_n of_o spain_n himself_o it_o be_v now_o to_o be_v fear_v that_o he_o may_v sometime_o or_o other_o attempt_n to_o take_v in_o some_o part_n of_o spain_n also_o for_o he_o be_v of_o a_o turbulent_a unquiet_a spirit_n neither_o can_v the_o french_a hold_n while_o they_o have_v well_o settle_v a_o country_n that_o they_o have_v new_o take_v in_o but_o they_o must_v on_o still_o and_o fall_v upon_o some_o other_o and_o this_o the_o king_n of_o france_n must_v the_o rather_o do_v because_o that_o be_v out_o of_o money_n he_o be_v force_v to_o forage_v abroad_o and_o take_v from_o other_o that_o he_o may_v have_v to_o pay_v his_o own_o man_n and_o therefore_o it_o will_v be_v necessary_a that_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n take_v care_n that_o the_o frontier_n of_o spain_n and_o the_o duchy_n of_o milan_n also_o be_v well_o guard_v and_o fortify_v and_o also_o that_o he_o careful_o
