the_o behaviour_n that_o he_o purpose_v to_o use_v in_o deliver_v his_o message_n leave_v for_o want_n of_o thus_o much_o light_n the_o prince_n may_v either_o be_v unprepared_a in_o what_o manner_n to_o express_v himself_o or_o be_v surprise_v with_o some_o such_o message_n as_o may_v not_o well_o comport_v with_o his_o honour_n to_o hear_v but_o in_o these_o ambassage_n from_o god_n to_o man_n no_o man_n be_v make_v so_o equal_a to_o god_n as_o that_o he_o may_v refuse_v to_o give_v audience_n except_o he_o know_v before_o hand_n that_o the_o message_n be_v agreeable_a to_o his_o mind_n only_o he_o that_o will_v be_v more_o than_o man_n that_o man_n of_o sin_n who_o esteem_v himself_o to_o be_v join_v in_o commission_n with_o god_n only_o he_o have_v a_o particular_a officer_n to_o know_v before_o hand_n what_o message_n god_n ambassador_n bring_v and_o to_o peruse_v all_o sermon_n to_o be_v preach_v before_o he_o and_o to_o expunge_v correct_v alter_v all_o such_o thing_n as_o may_v be_v disagreeable_a to_o he_o it_o can_v therefore_o become_v you_o to_o come_v to_o these_o audience_n upon_o condition_n to_o inform_v yourselves_o from_o other_o first_o what_o kind_n of_o message_n such_o or_o such_o a_o ambassador_n use_v to_o deliver_v whether_o he_o preach_v mercy_n or_o judgement_n that_o if_o he_o preach_v against_o usury_n you_o will_v hear_v court-sermon_n where_o there_o be_v less_o occasion_n to_o mention_v it_o if_o he_o preach_v against_o incontinency_n you_o will_v go_v whither_o be_v there_o any_o place_n that_o do_v not_o extort_v from_o we_o reprehension_n exclamation_n against_o that_o sin_n but_o if_o you_o believe_v we_o to_o come_v in_o christ_n stead_n what_o ever_o our_o message_n be_v you_o must_v hear_v we_o do_v that_o and_o for_o the_o second_o thing_n that_o prince_n practise_v in_o the_o reception_n of_o ambassador_n which_o be_v to_o refer_v ambassador_n to_o their_o council_n we_o be_v well_o content_a to_o admit_v
