ought_v to_o mind_v any_o of_o those_o circumstance_n because_o where_o there_o be_v strength_n there_o be_v always_o hope_n of_o make_v use_n of_o it_o that_o depend_v only_o upon_o raise_v of_o

feasable_a likewise_o to_o procure_v something_o more_o of_o trade_n with_o the_o hollander_n because_o they_o be_v extreme_o ingenious_a and_o addict_v that_o way_n and_o moreover_o since_o both_o the_o republic_n stand_v in_o awe_n of_o the_o same_o power_n it_o will_v not_o be_v difficult_a to_o unite_v their_o inclination_n and_o they_o have_v make_v on_o their_o side_n a_o sufficient_a

of_o a_o solid_a diversion_n of_o the_o force_n of_o spain_n there_o be_v another_o essential_a consideration_n which_o be_v that_o from_o they_o may_v be_v have_v a_o considerable_a body_n of_o well_o discipline_v soldier_n and_o that_o with_o admirable_a celerity_n beside_o several_a regiment_n that_o may_v be_v raise_v in_o a_o country_n so_o well_o use_v to_o war_n if_o there_o be_v occasion_n and_o all_o the_o inconvenience_n of_o transportation_n be_v not_o to_o be_v value_v for_o the_o republic_n will_v always_o have_v a_o great_a scarcity_n of_o good_a soldier_n than_o of_o

now_o if_o it_o be_v not_o well_o they_o shall_v grow_v great_a at_o lest_o it_o be_v not_o amiss_o they_o be_v already_o great_a enough_o because_o they_o be_v a_o check_n upon_o the_o emperor_n who_o else_o will_v be_v a_o most_o formidable_a potentate_n to_o all_o prince_n but_o more_o particular_o to_o the_o italian_n and_o more_o to_o the_o republic_n than_o to_o the_o rest_n of_o italy_n but_o now_o by_o their_o mean_n his_o power_n be_v not_o only_o balance_v but_o almost_o quite_o oppress_v to_o the_o common_a benefit_n of_o other_o prince_n with_o these_o prince_n it_o will_v be_v easy_a for_o the_o republic_n to_o have_v a_o engagement_n first_o because_o they_o know_v that_o the_o republic_n be_v not_o a_o blind_a adorer_n of_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o court_n of_o rome_n and_o second_o because_o they_o see_v the_o jealousy_n that_o be_v between_o the_o republic_n and_o the_o emperor_n from_o whence_o they_o conclude_v that_o there_o be_v no_o danger_n of_o a_o league_n between_o they_o and_o the_o emperor_n and_o by_o consequence_n they_o have_v not_o the_o republic_n for_o a_o suspect_a power_n and_o upon_o all_o occurrence_n it_o will_v do_v well_o to_o show_v a_o inclination_n to_o friendship_n with_o they_o first_o because_o they_o may_v make_v a_o potent_a diversion_n and_o second_o because_o their_o country_n be_v a_o nursery_n of_o soldier_n the_o republic_n upon_o occasion_n may_v make_v levy_n there_o and_o it_o be_v a_o point_n of_o high_a importance_n for_o the_o republic_n to_o be_v certain_a of_o their_o levy_n for_o in_o a_o time_n of_o need_n they_o can_v hope_v but_o for_o small_a help_n from_o the_o italian_a militia_n i_o have_v not_o yet_o say_v any_o thing_n of_o the_o duke_n of_o bavaria_n
