for_o divers_a consideration_n we_o can_v find_v it_o good_a either_o for_o monsieur_n or_o for_o ourselves_o to_o assent_v to_o the_o marriage_n with_o he_o as_o the_o case_n stand_v whereby_o he_o be_v already_o enter_v into_o a_o open_a war_n against_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n shall_v by_o marriage_n bring_v we_o &_o our_o realm_n also_o into_o a_o war_n which_o in_o no_o respect_n our_o

may_v well_o enlarge_v that_o point_n the_o rather_o consider_v it_o be_v see_v how_o hardly_o many_o have_v be_v bring_v to_o allow_v of_o the_o marriage_n without_o any_o war_n and_o therefore_o upon_o this_o point_n we_o nevertheless_o thus_o conclude_v that_o though_o the_o marriage_n can_v be_v allowable_a with_o a_o war_n for_o those_o respect_n yet_o consider_v how_o necessary_a it_o be_v for_o the_o crown_n of_o france_n as_o well_o as_o for_o we_o yea_o for_o all_o christendom_n that_o the_o king_n of_o spain_n greatness_n shall_v be_v impeach_v and_o this_o account_n of_o monsieur_n shall_v be_v prosecute_v in_o the_o low-countries_n we_o shall_v be_v content_a though_o we_o do_v not_o marry_v to_o join_v with_o the_o french_a king_n to_o aid_n monsieur_n with_o a_o reasonable_a portion_n so_o as_o it_o may_v not_o be_v so_o overt_o as_o thereby_o to_o provoke_v a_o war_n upon_o we_o and_o our_o realm_n and_o herewith_o you_o shall_v set_v forth_o the_o

there_o can_v be_v so_o much_o profit_n either_o to_o himself_o or_o to_o the_o french_a king_n and_o his_o realm_n or_o to_o we_o and_o our_o realm_n by_o the_o marriage_n as_o by_o the_o continuance_n of_o this_o action_n to_o the_o abate_n of_o the_o spanish_a king_n greatness_n which_o if_o it_o be_v not_o interrupt_v speedy_o will_v so_o encounter_v both_o france_n and_o england_n as_o neither_o the_o marriage_n nor_o any_o conjunction_n of_o the_o force_n of_o france_n and_o england_n can_v hereafter_o stay_v or_o remedy_n and_o if_o it_o shall_v be_v object_v by_o monsieur_n that_o the_o offer_n to_o aid_v he_o secret_o will_v serve_v he_o to_o no_o purpose_n for_o that_o he_o know_v that_o the_o king_n his_o brother_n will_v either_o not_o aid_v he_o at_o all_o or_o will_v not_o aid_v he_o otherwise_o then_o secret_o as_o will_v not_o serve_v he_o to_o purpose_n so_o as_o he_o must_v be_v force_v to_o leave_v his_o enterprise_n you_o shall_v still_o maintain_v our_o offer_n to_o be_v reasonable_a but_o if_o you_o shall_v find_v monsieur_n so_o earnest_a to_o mislike_v thereof_o as_o you_o shall_v perceive_v he_o resolute_a to_o leave_v off_o the_o enterprise_n except_o we_o will_v join_v with_o the_o king_n in_o such_o manner_n of_o aid_n as_o his_o brother_n will_v be_v content_a than_o you_o may_v after_o some_o pause_v say_v that_o if_o upon_o conference_n with_o the_o french_a it_o shall_v appear_v that_o he_o can_v be_v content_a with_o our_o secret_a aid_n we_o will_v be_v content_a rather_o than_o the_o duke_n action_n shall_v utter_o quail_v to_o yield_v to_o join_v with_o the_o french_a king_n by_o league_n and_o contract_n both_o to_o aid_v he_o as_o shall_v be_v think_v reasonable_a betwixt_o the_o king_n and_o we_o and_o also_o some_o other_o way_n to_o impeach_v the_o king_n of_o spain_n greatness_n but_o if_o the_o duke_n can_v be_v content_v with_o our_o secret_a aid_n we_o think_v it_o shall_v be_v no_o hindrance_n to_o he_o and_o yet_o a_o great_a contentation_n to_o we_o for_o so_o we_o may_v avoid_v the_o offence_n of_o our_o people_n and_o so_o you_o shall_v earnest_o entreat_v the_o duke_n to_o be_v content_a therewith_o as_o to_o the_o other_o two_o point_n for_o make_v of_o a_o league_n offensive_a and_o defensive_a and_o for_o a_o secret_a agreement_n for_o the_o matter_n of_o the_o low-countries_n we_o shall_v be_v ready_a to_o make_v with_o the_o
majesty_n and_o our_o country_n the_o want_n of_o he_o will_v then_o appear_v great_a for_o be_v it_o speak_v without_o offence_n to_o any_o for_o counsel_n in_o peace_n and_o for_o conduct_v in_o
