of Arms in order to it, be forthwith agreed to by them. But if contrary to all expectation, the said Offices should want their desired effect, His Im∣perial Majesty, and the Electors, Princes, and States of the Empire, included in this Peace, do promise, that after the Term for the Cessation of Hostilities, is expired, they will in no wise, under any pretence whatsoever, directly, or indirectly, assist the aforesaid Enemies of France, and Sweden, or in any wise hin∣der them in the carrying on of the War, nor suffer the Forces of the aforesaid Enemies of France, and Sweden, to take any Winter-Quarters, without their Territories in the Empire. And for the a∣foresaid end only, it shall be free for his Most Christian Majesty, to keep a Garrison, in the fol∣lowing Places in the Empire, yet without endam∣maging the Owners of the said Places, and their Subjects, and at the charges of the Most Christian King, viz. in the Towns, and Cities of Chasselet, Huy, Verviers, Aix la Chapelle, Dueren, Linnick, Nuys, and Zons, in which Places, no new Fortifi∣cations shall be made, further than shall be ne∣cessary for the safety of the Garrisons, and without giving just cause of suspicion: Nor shall it be law∣ful for the Most Christian King, to retain those Places upon account of the charges made therein, nor under any other pretence whatsoever, but shall evacuate, and restore the same to those, from whom he took them, so soon as a Peace shall be concluded, and Ratified, between the aforesaid Parties, as to the Provinces scituate in the Empire, or that more fit means, shall by common consent be found out, to restore it. In like manner, his most Christian Ma∣jesty doth promise, that he will in no wise, nor un∣der any pretence whatsoever, directly, or indirectly,

assist the present Enemies, of the Emperor and Em∣pire: It shall be likewise free for the Emperor, and Empire, to employ their Offices, Counsels, and En∣deavours, joyntly with the Most Christian King, for the speedy composing the War, by common consent.
