will_v be_v and_o therefore_o though_o it_o in_o the_o general_n be_v more_o beneficial_a that_o all_o exportation_n and_o importation_n may_v be_v by_o our_o own_o ship_n yet_o in_o regard_n time_n

to_o have_v the_o benefit_n of_o exportation_n by_o vessel_n of_o their_o own_o and_o last_o in_o regard_n the_o case_n may_v be_v such_o as_o importation_n may_v be_v at_o a_o cheap_a rate_n by_o
