two_o respect_n that_o be_v to_o say_v not_o only_o in_o the_o principal_a point_n that_o shall_v concern_v our_o subject_n but_o that_o they_o may_v become_v censurer_n of_o i_o and_o of_o the_o cause_n say_v that_o in_o the_o first_o history_n of_o two_o i_o speak_v not_o religious_o and_o that_o i_o give_v cause_n of_o offence_n to_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n of_o europe_n or_o that_o i_o incite_v you_o to_o take_v arm_n against_o they_o to_o the_o first_o objection_n i_o answer_v that_o when_o a_o person_n of_o what_o estate_n soever_o he_o be_v deliver_v any_o thing_n to_o good_a

they_o suggest_v that_o i_o transgress_v against_o christian_a prince_n they_o be_v much_o deceive_v for_o though_o a_o man_n make_v fine_a gold_n into_o a_o chain_n yet_o for_o all_o that_o it_o lose_v neither_o the_o beauty_n nor_o reputation_n of_o gold_n nor_o the_o name_n of_o the_o most_o excellent_a metal_n of_o all_o other_o so_o let_v it_o be_v suppose_v that_o a_o man_n descend_v of_o a_o princely_a race_n become_v a_o mean_a subject_n yet_o can_v any_o man_n say_v he_o lose_v by_o his_o dejection_n of_o fortune_n his_o nobility_n that_o come_v by_o nature_n for_o david_n
