for_o my_o proof_n of_o the_o first_o ground_n i_o will_v produce_v three_o head_n the_o first_o that_o the_o low_a country_n have_v not_o so_o long_o maintain_v war_n but_o with_o the_o help_n of_o england_n without_o the_o which_o they_o can_v not_o stand_v no_o more_o than_o man_n body_n can_v live_v without_o nourishment_n that_o fire_n be_v more_o easy_o quench_v by_o take_v away_o that_o which_o feed_v it_o then_o by_o cast_v on_o water_n for_o that_o not_o have_v wherewith_o to_o feed_v it_o it_o consume_v itself_o but_o seek_v to_o vanquish_v it_o by_o the_o contrary_a it_o may_v

fire_n which_o come_v from_o stranger_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v all_o one_o action_n to_o take_v away_o their_o succour_n which_o come_v from_o confederate_n prince_n and_o to_o win_v the_o city_n which_o otherwise_o all_o their_o force_n and_o of_o their_o confederate_n will_v not_o have_v be_v able_a to_o effect_v for_o my_o second_o head_n say_v he_o i_o set_v down_o that_o england_n do_v not_o only_o maintain_v the_o rebellion_n of_o the_o nertherlands_n by_o send_v succour_n but_o also_o by_o her_o countenance_n for_o where_o as_o the_o netherlander_n see_v the_o force_n of_o spain_n convert_v against_o they_o they_o fly_v unto_o england_n as_o to_o a_o sanctuary_n know_v that_o the_o english_a will_v always_o take_v arm_n against_o any_o that_o shall_v invade_v they_o wherein_o they_o imitate_v the_o athenian_n who_o think_v themselves_o safe_a as_o long_o as_o the_o olynthian_o stand_v who_o be_v subdue_v they_o know_v not_o how_o they_o shall_v keep_v philip_n out_o of_o

support_n which_o have_v maintain_v they_o in_o their_o insolence_n my_o three_o reason_n say_v he_o be_v that_o the_o burden_n of_o so_o long_a a_o war_n have_v so_o waste_v the_o spirit_n and_o faculty_n of_o the_o netherlander_n as_o they_o scarce_o have_v any_o pulse_n remain_v they_o have_v not_o only_o be_v cruel_a butcher_n of_o their_o own_o life_n but_o tyrant_n over_o their_o good_n

maintain_v this_o rebellion_n want_v life_n and_o spirit_n which_o england_n give_v it_o whereby_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o conquest_n of_o the_o low_a country_n follow_v that_o of_o england_n as_o the_o shadow_n do_v the_o body_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n we_o must_v not_o think_v the_o netherlands_o be_v win_v england_n will_v be_v so_o easy_o vanquish_v the_o which_o be_v a_o rich_a and_o a_o mighty_a kingdom_n seek_v no_o support_n from_o any_o other_o but_o rely_v upon_o she_o own_o force_n the_o which_o they_o will_v oppose_v against_o their_o fortaine_a enemy_n if_o the_o netherlands_o shall_v fall_v absolute_o into_o the_o spaniard_n hand_n standing_z as_o they_o do_v now_o wherefore_o england_n in_o her_o defence_n depend_v only_o of_o her_o own_o power_n and_o if_o it_o shall_v expect_v any_o foreign_a succour_n they_o will_v not_o fly_v unto_o those_o rebellious_a state_n which_o be_v needy_a and_o depend_v upon_o other_o hitherto_o say_v he_o we_o have_v show_v the_o difference_n of_o these_o enterprise_n and_o how_o much_o more_o profitable_a that_o of_o england_n will_v be_v now_o i_o must_v prove_v the_o second_o head_n of_o my_o ground_n that_o the_o conquest_n of_o that_o island_n be_v more_o easy_a than_o that_o of_o the_o netherlands_o and_o therefore_o aught_o to_o be_v prefer_v whether_o we_o do_v consider_v the_o profit_n the_o

the_o possibility_n the_o honour_n and_o safety_n or_o any_o other_o important_a consideration_n whatsoever_o but_o discourse_v now_o of_o the_o easiness_n of_o this_o conquest_n in_o regard_n of_o that_o of_o the_o netherlands_o i_o will_v prove_v say_v he_o that_o the_o difficulty_n be_v the_o same_o to_o invade_v england_n and_o the_o netherlands_o first_o of_o all_o i_o presuppose_v that_o a_o sufficient_a army_n be_v levy_v a_o royal_a enterprise_n be_v soon_o bring_v to_o perfection_n when_o as_o they_o be_v attempt_v both_o by_o sea_n and_o land_n the_o which_o king_n philip_n may_v do_v with_o great_a advantage_n in_o the_o enterprise_n of_o england_n then_o in_o that_o of_o the_o nertherlands_n for_o as_o the_o voyage_n by_o sea_n be_v short_a and_o more_o easy_a so_o he_o may_v more_o commodious_o invade_v england_n by_o land_n have_v mean_n to_o land_n part_n of_o his_o army_n safe_o in_o scotland_n as_o we_o will_v hereafter_o show_v whereas_o if_o he_o shall_v send_v a_o army_n by_o land_n into_o the_o low_a country_n the_o way_n will_v be_v long_o to_o pass_v from_o spain_n through_o italy_n and_o germany_n and_o it_o will_v be_v exceed_o chargeable_a and_o dangerous_a the_o second_o reason_n be_v that_o it_o be_v more_o commodious_a near_a and_o more_o safe_a to_o pass_v into_o england_n for_o that_o from_o the_o straight_o of_o gibraltar_n thither_o be_v all_o open_a sea_n without_o any_o let_v but_o to_o go_v into_o the_o low_a country_n he_o must_v of_o necessity_n pass_v by_o england_n the_o which_o by_o all_o reason_n of_o state_n shall_v let_v the_o king_n of_o spain_n understand_v in_o his_o passage_n that_o neither_o friend_n nor_o foe_n be_v welcome_a when_o they_o come_v with_o a_o great_a power_n wherefore_o there_o be_v no_o doubt_n that_o whosoever_o will_v muade_v the_o netherlands_o he_o must_v break_v this_o bar_n or_o make_v plain_a this_o mountain_n of_o england_n which_o cross_v he_o in_o his_o passage_n my_o three_o reason_n say_v he_o be_v ground_v upon_o a_o firm_a maximy_n of_o the_o art_n of_o war_n that_o thou_o must_v never_o seek_v to_o invade_v any_o place_n and_o leave_v any_o thing_n behind_o to_o disturb_v thou_o wherefore_o it_o be_v a_o rash_a enterprise_n to_o attempt_v the_o low_a country_n and_o leave_v england_n behind_o who_o be_v full_a of_o jealousy_n may_v sudden_o set_v upon_o the_o catholic_a king_n army_n in_o the_o hot_a of_o their_o war_n against_o the_o netherlander_n the_o forth_o that_o go_v to_o conquer_v the_o low_a country_n they_o must_v fight_v with_o brave_a old_a soldier_n breed_v up_o in_o the_o war_n ignorance_n see_v here_o his_o error_n and_o ignorance_n but_o on_o the_o other_o side_n the_o english_a be_v without_o art_n or_o practice_n of_o war_n they_o can_v use_v the_o harguebuse_n nor_o any_o other_o offensive_a arm_n but_o only_a bow_n and_o arrow_n the_o which_o be_v of_o no_o force_n against_o corselet_n and_o head-piece_n as_o we_o
