those_o vice_n which_o our_o father_n never_o hear_v of_o nor_o we_o ever_o see_v or_o read_v of_o before_o and_o you_o be_v mighty_a and_o repute_v noble_a disdain_v to_o take_v counsel_n of_o man_n

when_o such_o person_n enjoin_v they_o believe_v this_o oh_o you_o roman_n that_o from_o the_o levity_n of_o those_o in_o authority_n spring_v the_o shamelesness_n and_o disobedience_n of_o the_o people_n the_o prince_n who_o impose_v government_n upon_o those_o who_o he_o know_v not_o to_o be_v qualify_v for_o such_o a_o trust_n intend_v not_o so_o much_o that_o they_o shall_v do_v justice_n

in_o secret_a will_v here_o conclude_v with_o this_o advice_n that_o you_o keep_v we_o and_o our_o country_n in_o safety_n for_o which_o you_o have_v hazard_v yourselves_o and_o that_o you_o do_v
