bounty_n of_o the_o prince_n and_o receive_v they_o as_o gift_n of_o grace_n now_o account_v they_o as_o debt_n they_o take_v they_o as_o reward_n of_o due_a which_o if_o it_o be_v deny_v they_o it_o than_o cause_v a_o implacable_a hatred_n against_o the_o prince_n and_o at_o last_o his_o ruin_n and_o if_o it_o be_v grant_v they_o yet_o this_o increase_v not_o the_o soldier_n love_n who_o count_v not_o themselves_o behold_v to_o the_o prince_n for_o they_o but_o as_o fellow_n accustom_v to_o have_v money_n without_o pain_n they_o spend_v it_o frolic_o and_o that_o spend_v they_o expect_v new_a donative_n which_o if_o a_o prince_n may_v satisfy_v a_o while_n yet_o he_o can_v hold_v out_o to_o do_v so_o long_o but_o that_o at_o last_o he_o must_v be_v fain_o to_o deny_v they_o and_o when_o this_o happen_v they_o present_o fall_v to_o choose_v a_o new_a emperor_n of_o who_o they_o may_v receive_v it_o and_o this_o have_v be_v in_o rome_n the_o ruin_n and_o death_n of_o many_o as_o every_o one_o may_v read_v and_o see_v we_o may_v therefore_o conclude_v that_o donative_n to_o the_o soldier_n be_v very_o profitable_a to_o all_o for_o attain_v the_o empire_n but_o that_o the_o

these_o reason_n it_o be_v no_o hard_a matter_n to_o give_v a_o answer_n and_o first_o for_o that_o of_o the_o roman_n it_o may_v be_v say_v that_o this_o happen_v through_o the_o weakness_n of_o their_o neighbour_a nation_n with_o who_o they_o have_v war_n second_o and_o perhaps_o better_a that_o although_o in_o the_o roman_a army_n they_o send_v yearly_o a_o new_a consul_n yet_o there_o be_v

last_v long_o they_o than_o suffer_v their_o general_n to_o continue_v many_o year_n and_o grow_v old_a in_o their_o place_n from_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o at_o one_o and_o the_o same_o time_n have_v
