begin_n of_o many_o dangerous_a disease_n in_o healthful_a body_n so_o the_o beginning_n of_o many_o inconvenience_n in_o a_o state_n be_v not_o present_o feel_v with_o we_o after_o that_o with_o long_a civil_a war_n the_o land_n be_v half_o unpeople_v so_o as_o till_o of_o late_a year_n it_o come_v not_o to_o his_o full_a stock_n of_o people_n again_o there_o be_v the_o same_o quantity_n of_o land_n to_o half_a the_o number_n of_o people_n the_o surplusage_n of_o our_o in_o land_n commodity_n must_v needs_o be_v so_o great_a that_o though_o trade_n be_v not_o equal_o balance_v with_o we_o and_o other_o nation_n we_o can_v not_o but_o grow_v rich_a beside_o france_n &_o the_o low_a country_n be_v for_o many_o year_n half_o lay_v waste_n with_o war_n and_o so_o do_v trade_n but_o little_a nor_o manage_v their_o own_o land_n to_o their_o best_a advantage_n whereby_o they_o do_v not_o only_o not_o take_v the_o trade_n and_o market_n from_o we_o which_o now_o they_o do_v but_o they_o themselves_o be_v feed_v and_o clothe_v by_o we_o and_o take_v our_o commodity_n from_o we_o at_o great_a high_a rate_n whereas_o now_o we_o see_v the_o dutch_a do_v every_o where_o out-trade_n we_o &_o the_o french_a feed_v we_o with_o their_o corn_n even_o in_o plentiful_a year_n so_o as_o now_o our_o land_n be_v full_o stock_v with_o people_n our_o neighbour_n industrious_a and_o subtle_a in_o trade_n if_o we_o do_v not_o more_o equal_o balance_n trade_n and_o bring_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o may_v afford_v the_o fruit_n of_o our_o land_n as_o cheap_a as_o other_o country_n afford_v the_o same_o of_o the_o same_o kind_n we_o must_v though_o we_o leave_v a_o number_n of_o our_o superfluity_n as_o god_n forbid_v but_o we_o shall_v in_o a_o short_a time_n grow_v poor_a and_o beggarly_a and_o in_o this_o condition_n ten_o in_o the_o hundred_o in_o a_o little_a more_o time_n will_v as_o well_o serve_v to_o do_v it_o as_o if_o money_n be_v at_o twenty_o for_o as_o be_v before_o remember_v in_o most_o of_o the_o commodity_n the_o earth_n bring_v forth_o the_o stock_n employ_v in_o plant_v and_o manage_n of_o they_o make_v a_o great_a part_n of_o their_o price_n and_o consequent_o they_o make_v with_o great_a gain_n to_o themselves_o under-sell_a we_o our_o stock_n with_o we_o go_v at_o double_a the_o rate_n that_o they_o go_v with_o they_o and_o this_o we_o see_v and_o feel_v too_o well_o by_o experience_n at_o this_o present_a for_o have_v a_o great_a surplisage_n of_o corn_n we_o can_v find_v no_o vent_n for_o it_o the_o french_a with_o their_o own_o the_o dutch_a with_o the_o corn_n of_o poland_n every_o where_o supply_v the_o market_n at_o cheap_a rate_n than_o we_o can_v afford_v it_o and_o even_o our_o clothes_n which_o have_v hitherto_o be_v the_o golden_a mine_n in_o england_n i_o have_v hear_v many_o merchant_n say_v that_o except_o it_o be_v in_o some_o few_o of_o the_o fine_a sort_n of_o they_o which_o be_v a_o riches_n peculiar_a to_o this_o nation_n other_o country_n begin_v to_o make_v they_o of_o their_o own_o wool_n and_o by_o afford_v they_o cheap_a than_o we_o may_v so_o to_o take_v our_o market_n from_o us._n and_o this_o i_o hope_v may_v in_o part_n serve_v for_o answer_v to_o the_o next_o objection_n that_o all_o great_a and_o sudden_a change_n be_v common_o dangerous_a for_o that_o rule_n hold_v true_a where_o the_o body_n natural_a or_o politic_a be_v in_o perfect_a state_n of_o health_n but_o where_o there_o be_v a_o decline_v as_o i_o have_v some_o cause_n to_o fear_v there_o be_v or_o may_v soon_o be_v with_o we_o there_o to_o make_v no_o alteration_n be_v a_o certain_a way_n to_o ruin_v to_o the_o three_o that_o money_n will_v be_v sudden_o ●alled_v in_o and_o so_o all_o borrower_n great_o prejudice_v for_o that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o clause_n in_o the_o end_n of_o the_o statute_n whensoever_o it_o shall_v be_v make_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v lawful_a for_o all_o that_o have_v lend_v money_n at_o ten_o in_o the_o hundred_o which_o be_v now_o forbear_v and_o owe_v to_o take_v for_o such_o money_n so_o lend_v and_o owe_v during_o two_o year_n after_o this_o session_n of_o parliament_n such_o use_n as_o they_o may_v have_v do_v if_o this_o act_n have_v not_o be_v make_v whereby_o borrower_n shall_v be_v in_o less_o danger_n of_o sudden_a call_n in_o of_o their_o money_n then_o now_o they_o be_v for_o where_o the_o lender_n upon_o continuance_n of_o their_o old_a security_n may_v take_v ten_o in_o the_o hundred_o upon_o new_a security_n they_o must_v be_v content_a with_o less_o so_o the_o call_n in_o of_o their_o money_n will_v be_v to_o their_o own_o prejudice_n and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o borrower_n to_o who_o this_o give_v not_o sufficient_a satisfaction_n if_o such_o borrower_n have_v land_n of_o value_n to_o pay_v his_o debt_n the_o worst_a condition_n he_o can_v fear_v be_v to_o have_v at_o the_o least_o twenty_o year_n purchase_n for_o his_o land_n wherewith_o to_o clear_v his_o debt_n for_o as_o i_o say_v before_o land_n be_v the_o best_a security_n and_o secure_a inheritance_n will_v still_o bear_v a_o rate_n above_o money_n and_o so_o there_o be_v no_o use_n allow_v for_o money_n above_o the_o rate_n tolerate_v in_o other_o country_n land_n will_v as_o ready_o sell_v at_o twenty_o year_n purchase_n as_o it_o do_v now_o at_o twelve_o and_o i_o think_v there_o be_v no_o borrower_n that_o have_v land_n of_o value_n to_o pay_v his_o debt_n do_v doubt_n if_o he_o will_v now_o sell_v his_o land_n at_o ten_o year_n purchase_n he_o may_v soon_o be_v out_o of_o debt_n to_o the_o four_o objection_n that_o money_n will_v be_v hard_a to_o be_v borrow_v and_o so_o commerce_n hinder_v i_o answer_v that_o it_o be_v true_a if_o the_o high_a rate_n of_o usury_n do_v increase_v money_n within_o this_o land_n but_o the_o high_a rate_n of_o usury_n do_v enrich_v only_o the_o usurer_n and_o impoverish_v the_o kingdom_n as_o have_v be_v show_v and_o it_o be_v the_o plenty_n of_o money_n within_o the_o land_n that_o make_v money_n easy_a to_o be_v borrow_v as_o we_o see_v by_o the_o example_n of_o other_o country_n where_o money_n be_v easy_a to_o be_v borrow_v than_o it_o be_v with_o we_o and_o yet_o the_o rate_n tolerate_v for_o use_n be_v little_o more_o than_o half_a so_o much_o it_o be_v the_o high_a rate_n of_o use_n that_o undo_v so_o many_o of_o the_o gentry_n of_o the_o land_n which_o make_v the_o number_n of_o borrower_n so_o great_a and_o the_o number_n of_o borrower_n must_v of_o necessity_n make_v money_n the_o hard_a to_o be_v borrow_v whereas_o if_o use_n for_o money_n be_v at_o a_o low_a rate_n land_n as_o have_v be_v show_v will_v be_v much_o quick_a to_o be_v sell_v and_o at_o dear_a rate_n and_o so_o the_o nobility_n and_o gentry_n will_v soon_o be_v out_o of_o debt_n and_o consequent_o the_o few_o borrower_n and_o so_o to_o tradesman_n and_o merchant_n money_n easy_a to_o be_v have_v further_o let_v we_o consider_v if_o money_n be_v call_v down_o what_o usurer_n will_v do_v with_o their_o money_n they_o will_v not_o i_o suppose_v long_o be_v sullen_a &_o keep_v it_o a_o dead_a stock_n by_o they_o for_o that_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o the_o safe_a way_n of_o keep_v it_o they_o must_v then_o either_o employ_v it_o in_o trade_n purchase_v land_n or_o lend_v for_o use_v at_o such_o rate_n as_o the_o law_n will_v tolerate_v if_o it_o quicken_v trade_n that_o be_v the_o thing_n to_o be_v desire_v for_o that_o will_v enrich_v the_o kingdom_n and_o so_o make_v money_n plentiful_a and_o yet_o need_v not_o any_o borrower_n fear_v that_o money_n will_v so_o be_v employ_v in_o trade_n as_o that_o there_o will_v not_o be_v sufficient_a of_o money_n to_o purchase_v land_n where_o the_o purchaser_n may_v have_v as_o much_o or_o near_o so_o much_o rend_v by_o the_o purchase_n of_o land_n as_o he_o can_v by_o put_v his_o money_n to_o use_v for_o a_o great_a number_n of_o gentleman_n and_o other_o in_o the_o country_n know_v not_o how_o to_o employ_v any_o stock_n in_o trade_n but_o with_o great_a uncertainty_n and_o less_o satisfaction_n to_o themselves_o than_o the_o let_v of_o their_o money_n at_o a_o low_a rate_n or_o purchase_v land_n at_o twenty_o year_n purchase_n or_o upward_o no_o doubt_n for_o the_o present_a there_o will_v be_v great_a buy_n and_o sell_v of_o land_n till_o man_n have_v clear_v themselves_o and_o pay_v their_o debt_n but_o in_o short_a time_n land_n as_o it_o be_v show_v before_o will_v sell_v at_o so_o dear_a a_o rate_n as_o money_n let_v at_o a_o low_a rate_n of_o use_n will_v bring_v in_o proportion_n as_o great_a a_o rate_n above_o
