that_o i_o say_v again_o the_o first_o point_n of_o this_o general_a position_n need_v little_a or_o no_o proof_n but_o the_o second_o and_o more_o material_a part_n of_o this_o conclusion_n be_v that_o this_o difference_n in_o land_n and_o people_n arise_v principal_o from_o their_o situation_n trade_n and_o policy_n to_o clear_v this_o i_o shall_v compare_v holland_n and_o zealand_n with_o the_o kingdom_n of_o france_n holland_n and_o zealand_n do_v not_o contain_v above_o 1._o million_o of_o english_a acre_n whereas_o the_o kingdom_n of_o france_n contain_v above_o 80._o now_o the_o original_n and_o primitive_a difference_n hold_v proportion_n as_o land_n to_o land_n for_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o say_v that_o when_o these_o place_n be_v one_a plant_v whether_o a_o acre_n of_o land_n in_o holland_n be_v better_a than_o the_o like_a quantity_n in_o france_n and_o zealand_n now_o be_v there_o any_o reason_n to_o suppose_v but_o that_o therefore_o upon_o the_o first_o plantation_n the_o number_n of_o planter_n be_v in_o proportion_n to_o the_o quantity_n of_o land_n wherefore_o if_o the_o people_n be_v not_o in_o proportion_n as_o the_o land_n the_o same_o must_v be_v attribute_v to_o the_o situation_n of_o the_o land_n and_o to_o the_o trade_n and_o policy_n of_o the_o people_n the_o next_o thing_n to_o be_v show_v be_v that_o holland_n and_o zealand_n at_o this_o day_n be_v not_o only_a 80th_o as_o rich_a and_o strong_a as_o france_n but_o that_o it_o have_v advance_v to_o the_o 3d._n or_o thereabouts_o which_o i_o think_v will_v appear_v upon_o the_o balance_n of_o the_o follow_a particular_n viz._n as_o for_o the_o wealth_n of_o france_n a_o certain_a map_n of_o that_o kingdom_n set_v forth_o an._n 1647._o represent_v it_o to_o be_v 15_o

discourse_n of_o husbandry_n suppose_v to_o be_v sir_n richard_n weston_n do_v from_o reason_n and_o experience_n show_v that_o land_n in_o the_o netherlands_o by_o bear_v flax_n turnip_n clovergrass_n mad_a etc._n etc._n will_v easy_o yield_v 10_o pound_n per_fw-la acre_n so_o as_o the_o territory_n of_o holland_n and_o zealand_n shall_v by_o this_o account_n yield_v at_o least_o 10_o million_o per_fw-la annum_fw-la yet_o i_o do_v not_o believe_v the_o same_o to_o be_v so_o much_o nor_o france_n so_o little_a as_o aforesaid_a but_o rather_o that_o one_o bear_v to_o the_o other_o as_o about_o 7_o or_o 8_o to_o one_o the_o people_n of_o amsterdam_n be_v one_o 3d_o part_n of_o those_o in_o paris_n or_o london_n which_o two_o city_n differ_v not_o in_o people_n a_o 20_o part_n

of_o amsterdam_n pay_v 27_o of_o the_o say_v 67_o it_o follow_v that_o if_o amsterdam_n have_v pay_v 4000_o pound_n flemish_a per_fw-la diem_fw-la or_o about_o 146000_o per_fw-la annum_fw-la or_o about_o 80_o thousand_o pound_n sterling_n that_o all_o holland_n and_o zealand_n have_v pay_v above_o 2_o million_o per_fw-la annum_fw-la now_o the_o reason_n why_o they_o pay_v so_o much_o i_o
