be_v a_o slave_n to_o he_o that_o exercise_v his_o wit_n too_o and_o hence_o it_o be_v that_o the_o king_n of_o france_n and_o his_o officer_n of_o state_n yield_v themselves_o up_o to_o calvin_n as_o

all_o other_o northern_a nation_n do_v abound_v with_o soldier_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o fruitfulness_n of_o their_o woman_n and_o especial_o because_o there_o be_v so_o few_o of_o they_o in_o

of_o the_o principal_a element_n of_o advance_v a_o commonwealth_n and_o be_v much_o make_v use_n of_o by_o the_o roman_n it_o will_v do_v very_o well_o also_o if_o a_o law_n be_v make_v that_o the_o

to_o provide_v well_o enough_o against_o all_o these_o thing_n three_o let_v the_o king_n give_v leave_v to_o his_o soldier_n to_o seize_v upon_o woman_n in_o the_o low-countries_n england_n and_o

all_o these_o thing_n be_v to_o be_v so_o order_v that_o the_o dutch_a woman_n be_v marry_v to_o spaniard_n and_o the_o african_a woman_n either_o to_o german_n or_o low-dutch_a and_o the_o spanish_a woman_n to_o italian_n for_o this_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n seem_v to_o require_v that_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o spaniard_n shall_v be_v render_v more_o fruitful_a by_o the_o german_a juycinesse_n and_o that_o the_o fiery_a temper_n of_o the_o african_a shall_v be_v attemper_v and_o allay_v by_o the_o cold_a and_o moist_a constitution_n of_o the_o netherlander_n that_o so_o both_o venereal_a

good_a for_o both_o and_o from_o hence_o will_v arise_v two_o advantage_n the_o first_o whereof_o be_v that_o these_o woman_n will_v embrace_v the_o christian_a faith_n for_o a_o woman_n will_v never_o be_v of_o any_o other_o religion_n then_o that_o which_o her_o husband_n who_o she_o love_v so_o dear_o be_v of_o as_o your_o northern_a woman_n who_o be_v natural_o cold_a love_v their_o south-country_n husband_n who_o be_v hot_a and_o the_o sabine_a young_a woman_n make_v peace_n betwixt_o the_o roman_n their_o ravisher_n and_o the_o sabine_n their_o parent_n that_o come_v to_o

the_o contrary_n the_o second_o advantage_n be_v that_o by_o this_o mean_v the_o king_n shall_v never_o be_v without_o good_a store_n of_o soldier_n while_o he_o shall_v always_o have_v his_o soldier_n son_n also_o to_o make_v soldier_n of_o when_o therefore_o he_o shall_v once_o come_v to_o abound_v in_o soldier_n by_o reason_n of_o this_o course_n take_v to_o promote_v fructification_n which_o i_o have_v now_o lay_v down_o it_o will_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o inflame_v the_o soldier_n mind_n and_o will_v exceed_o encourage_v they_o to_o go_v on_o against_o any_o garrison_n or_o

be_v a_o secret_a of_o plato_n find_v out_o that_o soldier_n shall_v be_v stir_v up_o and_o encourage_v to_o fight_v for_o love_n i_o will_v also_o have_v a_o law_n make_v that_o such_o soldier_n as_o have_v take_v away_o more_o woman_n than_o one_o shall_v be_v place_v in_o some_o strong_a hold_n and_o keep_v garrison_n there_o and_o not_o be_v force_v to_o follow_v the_o camp_n in_o like_a

where_o they_o can_v in_o a_o enemy_n country_n which_o they_o may_v make_v their_o wife_n and_o this_o will_v be_v a_o mean_n to_o encourage_v poor_a people_n to_o get_v child_n as_o fast_o as_o they_o can_v as_o be_v certain_o provide_v of_o one_o that_o will_v breed_v they_o up_o for_o they_o and_o the_o king_n also_o shall_v by_o this_o mean_n be_v sure_a to_o have_v faithful_a soldier_n but_o in_o foreign_a nation_n let_v he_o erect_v for_o every_o several_a nation_n a_o several_a seminary_n as_o for_o example_n let_v there_o be_v one_o for_o the_o moor_n and_o another_o for_o the_o

of_o lose_v they_o upon_o every_o the_o least_o occasion_n and_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n much_o to_o be_v wonder_v at_o how_o and_o which_o way_n such_o vast_a sum_n of_o money_n shall_v come_v to_o be_v waste_v and_o yet_o the_o king_n not_o any_o thing_n at_o all_o the_o better_a for_o it_o for_o we_o see_v that_o he_o be_v still_o poor_a for_o all_o this_o and_o be_v almost_o continual_o

tartarian_n and_o hun_n without_o any_o money_n make_v themselves_o lord_n of_o almost_o the_o whole_a world_n we_o confess_v therefore_o that_o money_n be_v of_o excellent_a good_a use_n and_o most_o
