that_o the_o cheapness_n of_o manufacture_n and_o artificial_a commodity_n do_v altogether_o depend_v upon_o the_o plenty_n and_o cheapness_n of_o the_o matter_n and_o upon_o the_o like_a cheapness_n of_o price_n for_o handie-labor_n and_o these_o though_o few_o be_v unalterable_a law_n in_o all_o manufacture_n it_o can_v but_o be_v acknowledge_v that_o it_o be_v through_o our_o want_n of_o the_o
