Consent of the
Emperor and the
whole Empire, the most Christian

Successors shall have perpetual
Right to keep a Garison in the Castle of Philipsburg, but limited to such
a

Suspicion to the Neighbourhood; which Garison shall be maintain’d at the
Expences of the Crown of
France. The Passage also shall be
open for the
King into the Empire by
Water, when, and as often as he shall send
Soldiers,
Convoys, and bring necessary things thither. ...
