say_v his_o majesty_n if_o the_o emperor_n leopold_n stir_v up_o by_o my_o example_n or_o by_o imitation_n of_o the_o roman_a emperor_n his_o predecessor_n shall_v of_o a_o sudden_a take_v the_o

so_o ambitious_a as_o your_o majesty_n these_o be_v two_o good_a prince_n who_o seek_v only_o repose_v and_o peace_n and_o shun_v the_o cruelty_n of_o the_o war._n and_o if_o your_o majesty_n have_v not_o constrain_v they_o to_o take_v up_o arm_n to_o maintain_v their_o interest_n and_o those_o of_o all_o europe_n they_o will_v not_o have_v trouble_v themselves_o at_o this_o time_n to_o go_v

to_o the_o wisdom_n and_o to_o the_o good_a fortune_n of_o your_o majesty_n since_o we_o see_v that_o the_o imbecility_n of_o prince_n who_o have_v reign_v in_o your_o time_n have_v as_o much_o and_o
