land_n to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o dutch_a do_v not_o only_o hereby_o supply_v themselves_o plentiful_o so_o as_o the_o price_n of_o corn_n be_v constant_a and_o reasonable_a and_o so_o as_o whatever_o happen_v in_o other_o place_n they_o never_o fear_v a_o famine_n but_o also_o upon_o all_o occasion_n supply_v other_o place_n with_o corn_n so_o as_o a_o famine_n or_o scarcity_n of_o corn_n become_v their_o enrich_n whereas_o we_o be_v never_o at_o any_o certainty_n in_o the_o price_n of_o our_o corn_n but_o if_o a_o plentiful_a year_n happen_v whereby_o nature_n have_v disburden_v herself_o of_o more_o than_o she_o can_v renew_v the_o future_a year_n the_o tenant_n be_v necessitate_v to_o vend_n it_o abroad_o at_o low_a price_n to_o pay_v their_o rent_n and_o when_o the_o dear_a year_n succeed_v it_o may_v be_v we_o pay_v double_a for_o the_o same_o corn_n again_o and_o i_o say_v also_o it_o be_v plenty_n in_o all_o thing_n which_o make_v cheapness_n and_o therefore_o wherever_o corn_n be_v plentiful_a in_o proportion_n to_o the_o people_n or_o market_n it_o will_v be_v cheap_a but_o in_o case_n our_o town_n in_o the_o mediterrane_n part_n of_o england_n be_v replenish_v with_o all_o sort_n of_o artificer_n and_o the_o port_n of_o england_n abound_v with_o the_o dutch_a navigation_n the_o price_n of_o corn_n will_v bear_v a_o proportion_n to_o the_o number_n of_o artificer_n and_o mariner_n and_o the_o mean_n which_o by_o their_o craft_n and_o traffic_n they_o shall_v be_v enable_v to_o buy_v corn_n withal_o we_o than_o shall_v not_o need_v to_o fear_v the_o importation_n of_o corn_n or_o irish_a cattle_n and_o i_o believe_v it_o will_v be_v a_o happiness_n equal_a to_o any_o temporal_a both_o to_o the_o landlord_n and_o tenant_n to_o have_v the_o price_n of_o corn_n constant_a and_o reasonable_a and_o that_o such_o store_n be_v preserve_v in_o all_o great_a and_o navigable_a place_n so_o as_o to_o prevent_v a_o famine_n in_o england_n and_o to_o supply_v other_o place_n which_o labour_n under_o it_o queen_n elizabeth_z in_o the_o first_o parliament_n of_o her_o reign_n permit_v the_o english_a in_o any_o vessel_n to_o import_v corn_n pay_v ordinary_a and_o but_o reasonable_a duty_n which_o law_n stand_v yet_o in_o force_n corollary_n 2._o by_o the_o same_o reason_n the_o free_a permission_n of_o the_o english_a in_o english-built_a ship_n to_o export_v newcastle-coal_n and_o make_v return_v into_o the_o port_n of_o england_n may_v increase_v the_o navigation_n of_o england_n 22_o pet._n 4._o for_o the_o foreign_a trade_n of_o newcastle-coal_n by_o the_o english_a be_v a_o principle_n to_o the_o navigation_n of_o england_n 23_o pet._n 4._o and_o the_o free_a permission_n of_o the_o english_a in_o english-built_a ship_n to_o export_v newcastle-coal_n and_o make_v return_n into_o the_o port_n of_o england_n may_v increase_v the_o foreign_a trade_n of_o it_o annot._n by_o free_a permission_n here_o i_o intend_v such_o duty_n only_o as_o that_o newcastle_n coal_n may_v with_o regard_n to_o the_o goodness_n of_o it_o be_v cheap_a vend_v in_o foreign_a part_n than_o scotch-coal_n from_o the_o port_n of_o scotland_n for_o whilst_o the_o duty_n of_o export_v newcastle-coal_n continue_v so_o high_a foreigner_n pay_v above_o 16_o s._n per_fw-la chauldron_n and_o the_o english_a above_o 8_o s._n all_o nation_n unless_o it_o be_v in_o work_a iron_n manufacture_n general_o take_v in_o lade_n of_o coal_n from_o scotland_n we_o glory_v much_o that_o the_o newcastle-trade_n in_o our_o home-vent_a of_o coal_n above_o all_o other_o trade_n employ_v our_o ship_n and_o mariner_n yet_o as_o have_v be_v say_v this_o employment_n be_v to_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o nation_n by_o how_o much_o pitch_n tar_n cordage_n and_o sail_n be_v consume_v in_o it_o whereas_o the_o foreign_a trade_n of_o it_o if_o free_a to_o the_o english_a for_o aught_o i_o know_v may_v employ_v more_o ship_n and_o mariner_n and_o both_o the_o outward_a vent_n and_o the_o return_v may_v be_v profitable_a to_o the_o nation_n i_o be_o sure_a the_o coal_n under_o ground_n be_v no_o benefit_n to_o the_o nation_n nor_o need_v we_o fear_v in_o case_n the_o colliery_n be_v drain_v ever_o to_o want_v coal_n to_o supply_v ourselves_o or_o foreigner_n it_o be_v true_a foreigner_n in_o france_n flanders_n holland_n and_o other_o place_n by_o this_o permission_n may_v work_v iron_n manufacture_n cheap_a by_o how_o much_o cheap_a the_o english_z shall_v import_v newcastle-coal_n but_o to_o this_o i_o say_v that_o all_o nation_n except_o the_o english_a in_o consume_a wine_n import_v design_v some_o benefit_n by_o good_n buy_v and_o sell_v and_o therefore_o in_o traffic_n man_n compare_v the_o benefit_n in_o buy_v and_o sell_v and_o it_o be_v great_a wisdom_n in_o any_o nation_n so_o to_o establish_v trade_n and_o commerce_n that_o the_o nation_n traffic_n be_v improve_v and_o therefore_o in_o case_n the_o vend_v our_o coal_n in_o foreign_a trade_n and_o make_v return_v beside_o the_o employment_n of_o our_o ship_n and_o mariner_n be_v more_o beneficial_a to_o this_o nation_n than_o cheap_a work_n iron_n manufacture_n be_v prejudicial_a to_o it_o this_o exportation_n be_v to_o be_v prefer_v another_o objection_n against_o this_o permission_n be_v the_o king_n revenue_n will_v be_v hereby_o lessen_v by_o how_o much_o the_o duty_n be_v less_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v first_o that_o the_o king_n revenue_n upon_o trade_n be_v a_o consequence_n to_o trade_n and_o therefore_o if_o the_o king_n revenue_n upon_o trade_n be_v high_a than_o it_o can_v bear_v the_o trade_n will_v be_v lose_v and_o then_o necessary_o will_v be_v the_o king_n revenue_n and_o that_o it_o be_v the_o height_n of_o the_o duty_n upon_o coal_n export_v which_o establish_v so_o great_a a_o trade_n of_o coal_n in_o scotland_n and_o make_v our_o foreign_a vent_n so_o inconsiderable_a second_o this_o revenue_n upon_o newcastle-coal_n in_o the_o foreign_a vent_n of_o it_o be_v farm_a so_o that_o though_o the_o duty_n be_v very_o high_a yet_o it_o may_v be_v the_o king_n revenue_n be_v not_o considerable_a whereas_o three_o in_o case_n the_o foreign_a duty_n be_v reasonable_a the_o greatness_n of_o the_o trade_n may_v much_o more_o increase_v the_o king_n revenue_n than_o as_o it_o stand_v whenas_o the_o greatness_n of_o the_o duty_n cause_n so_o small_a a_o trade_n to_o sum_v up_o this_o discourse_n and_o leave_v the_o progress_n of_o so_o excellent_a a_o design_n to_o other_o who_o insight_n and_o ability_n be_v better_a able_a to_o improve_v the_o trade_n and_o navigation_n of_o the_o nation_n i_o say_v that_o in_o case_n we_o shall_v reserve_v the_o east_n indie_n the_o turkey_n trade_n and_o the_o trade_n to_o our_o plantation_n as_o also_o the_o home-vent_a and_o foreign_a trade_n of_o newcastle-coal_n to_o the_o native_n of_o england_n and_o again_o establish_v the_o trade_n and_o navigation_n to_o ireland_n as_o it_o be_v before_o the_o act_n against_o importation_n of_o irish_a cattle_n and_o permit_v all_o nation_n to_o inhabit_v and_o fish_n from_o the_o port_n of_o england_n and_o import_v and_o export_v free_o french_a wine_n brandy_n and_o salt_n from_o france_n and_o timber_n pitch_n and_o tar_n from_o norway_n and_o ruff_n hemp_n and_o flax_n from_o the_o port_n within_o the_o sound_n i_o know_v not_o of_o any_o trade_n or_o navigation_n we_o shall_v be_v in_o danger_n to_o lose_v so_o as_o not_o to_o employ_v our_o ship_n and_o mariner_n but_o those_o to_o france_n muscovy_n and_o into_o the_o sound_n for_o the_o trade_n and_o navigation_n to_o muscovy_n and_o into_o the_o sound_n by_o english_a ship_n and_o mariner_n only_o we_o have_v examine_v it_o in_o the_o annot._n upon_o the_o 13_o prop._n the_o coral_n and_o 14_o prop._n of_o this_o treatise_n and_o find_v it_o not_o only_o prejudicial_a to_o the_o trade_n and_o navigation_n of_o the_o nation_n but_o dangerous_a to_o the_o conserve_n the_o sovereignty_n of_o the_o british_a sea_n to_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n in_o the_o french_a trade_n for_o wine_n and_o brandy_n i_o observe_v that_o this_o trade_n above_o all_o other_o impoverish_v the_o nation_n not_o only_o as_o we_o debauch_v and_o impoverish_v ourselves_o in_o drink_v all_o the_o wine_n good_a or_o bad_a import_v but_o also_o in_o the_o ware_n and_o tear_v of_o the_o vessel_n wherein_o we_o import_v they_o and_o the_o outward_a freight_n be_v with_o little_a else_o than_o ballast_n and_o the_o return_v as_o well_o as_o outward_a voyage_n in_o the_o most_o perilous_a season_n of_o navigation_n of_o all_o other_o wherein_o we_o lose_v more_o ship_n and_o mariner_n than_o in_o all_o our_o other_o trade_n &_o navigation_n beside_o whereas_o in_o case_n we_o shall_v increase_v a_o foreign_a trade_n of_o newcastle-coal_n and_o restore_v the_o trade_n we_o have_v to_o ireland_n
