hand_n if_o the_o city_n shall_v be_v force_v to_o keep_v so_o many_o thousand_o when_o all_o their_o work_n be_v do_v as_o be_v now_o in_o the_o building_n it_o will_v be_v a_o great_a burden_n so_o the_o case_n be_v in_o england_n in_o this_o particular_a where_o great_a trade_n have_v be_v former_o keep_v and_o draw_v several_a family_n thither_o and_o have_v raise_v commodity_n there_o but_o when_o it_o fail_v it_o be_v a_o miserable_a state_n and_o condition_n those_o place_n be_v in_o to_o return_v in_o short_a there_o be_v such_o connextion_n and_o dependency_n one_o upon_o another_o in_o england_n that_o if_o one_o fail_v all_o the_o rest_n more_o or_o less_o either_o more_o near_o or_o remote_o be_v concern_v as_o in_o the_o natural_a body_n when_o any_o member_n fail_v the_o

they_o that_o receive_v from_o these_o and_o distribute_v it_o again_o and_o all_o be_v consequent_o concern_v in_o this_o rich_a treasure_n of_o wool_n because_o this_o be_v a_o manufacture_n at_o

consider_v that_o most_o of_o the_o ship_n be_v employ_v in_o this_o affair_n and_o also_o so_o many_o trade_n that_o depend_v immediate_o upon_o this_o of_o clothing_n that_o most_o of_o other_o

most_o so_o the_o person_n that_o have_v the_o great_a estate_n or_o trade_n and_o so_o all_o proportionable_a to_o the_o beggar_n and_o also_o consider_v that_o a_o accustomary_a thing_n beget_v

beside_o that_o their_o imposition_n absolute_o prohibit_v our_o clothes_n come_v there_o i_o be_o the_o more_o large_a in_o the_o demonstration_n of_o this_o affair_n not_o only_o because_o this_o have_v cost_v i_o many_o year_n labour_n and_o study_v to_o consult_v all_o sort_n of_o concern_v person_n beside_o my_o own_o experience_n about_o it_o nor_o because_o it_o be_v so_o hard_a to_o

up_o some_o other_o manufacture_n in_o lieu_n of_o endeavour_n to_o prevent_v the_o exportation_n of_o wool_n and_o manufacture_v of_o that_o at_o home_n look_v thereon_o as_o a_o thing_n not_o to_o

upon_o together_o herewith_o as_o a_o addition_n so_o as_o several_a sort_n of_o person_n maybe_o set_v better_o on_o work_n not_o capable_a of_o this_o employment_n and_o yet_o no_o prejudice_n to_o this_o of_o clothing_n for_o all_o other_o country_n have_v the_o advantage_n of_o england_n or_o be_v equal_a to_o we_o in_o other_o manufacture_n proper_a to_o their_o country_n but_o not_o in_o this_o of_o clothing_n and_o it_o will_v be_v find_v that_o all_o trade_n in_o england_n whole_o distinct_a from_o this_o of_o clothing_n bring_v not_o the_o tithe_n of_o advantage_n that_o this_o do_v since_o man_n can_v rational_o believe_v the_o effect_n to_o be_v great_a than_o the_o cause_n the_o most_o of_o other_o manufacture_n either_o be_v in_o be_v or_o bring_v to_o use_v by_o the_o

up_o england_n loss_n by_o the_o exportation_n of_o our_o wool_n to_o foreign_a part_n not_o only_o in_o the_o advantage_n we_o may_v have_v by_o the_o manufacture_a thereof_o here_o in_o england_n as_o former_o note_v but_o also_o in_o the_o import_v of_o dutch_a cloth_n and_o more_o in_o french_a manufacture_n because_o england_n improve_v not_o their_o own_o wool_n and_o of_o the_o humour_n of_o english_a people_n in_o put_v such_o a_o value_n upon_o french_a fancy_n when_o themselves_o be_v in_o a_o better_a capacity_n if_o improve_v to_o produce_v the_o like_a or_o better_o and_o

hereafter_o have_v now_o discover_v the_o damage_n it_o be_v to_o england_n in_o the_o transportation_n of_o wool_n from_o the_o king_n to_o the_o mean_a i_o shall_v endeavour_v also_o to_o discover_v the_o method_n how_o it_o be_v do_v before_o i_o shall_v prescribe_v a_o remedy_n for_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o know_v distemper_n especial_o such_o that_o be_v so_o consumptive_a it_o be_v

at_o this_o day_n in_o england_n where_o the_o cause_n be_v mistake_v the_o remedy_n be_v consequent_o misapply_v whereby_o a_o disease_n in_o supposition_n become_v one_o in_o fact_n the_o method_n or_o way_n of_o this_o evil_n be_v first_o in_o rumny-marsh_n in_o kent_n where_o the_o great_a part_n of_o rough_a wool_n be_v export_v from_o england_n put_v aboard_o french_a shallop_n by_o night_n ten_o or_o twenty_o man_n well_o arm_v to_o guard_v it_o some_o other_o part_v there_o be_v as_o in_o sussex_n hampshire_n and_o essex_n the_o same_o method_n may_v be_v use_v but_o not_o so_o convenient_o the_o same_o for_o comb_v wool_n from_o canterbury_n they_o will_v carry_v it_o ten_o or_o fifteen_o mile_n at_o night_n towards_o the_o sea_n with_o the_o like_a guard_n as_o before_o but_o for_o other_o part_n it_o must_v be_v do_v partly_o by_o the_o remissness_n of_o the_o officer_n of_o his_o majesty_n custom_n and_o easy_a composition_n for_o the_o forfeiture_n of_o the_o bond_n as_o more_o shall_v appear_v anon_o and_o then_o for_o comb_v wool_n in_o other_o part_n some_o be_v ship_v off_o from_o london_n for_o bales_n of_o drapery_n nay_o some_o at_o lime_n and_o also_o at_o exon_n where_o there_o be_v ten_o thousand_o pound_n sterling_n weekly_o lay_v out_o in_o the_o woollen_a manufacture_n which_o be_v most_o for_o workmen_n wage_n i_o know_v no_o place_n clear_a and_o then_o another_o reason_n why_o person_n be_v not_o detect_v be_v because_o all_o the_o wool_n that_o have_v be_v take_v in_o those_o part_n where_o most_o have_v be_v export_v have_v be_v suffer_v to_o go_v off_o at_o the_o same_o place_n after_o judgement_n past_a and_o by_o the_o officer_n to_o the_o same_o person_n at_o a_o low_a rate_n be_v under_o rate_a to_o those_o very_a
