to_o all_o objection_n answer_v there_o be_v three_o main_a objection_n that_o lie_v against_o these_o bank_n object_n 1._o man_n will_v not_o be_v willing_a to_o bring_v a_o encumbrance_n upon_o their_o estate_n to_o be_v answerable_a for_o the_o act_n of_o their_o officer_n which_o may_v be_v very_o prejudicial_a to_o they_o answ_n 1._o the_o precinct_n choose_v their_o own_o officer_n and_o

person_n robe_v and_o also_o from_o that_o intolerable_a charge_n of_o maintain_v the_o poor_a by_o a_o monthly_a rate_n answ_n a_o full_a answer_n to_o this_o objection_n be_v this_o land_n without_o this_o incumberance_n be_v now_o not_o worth_a above_o twenty_o year_n purchase_n will_v be_v worth_a at_o least_o forty_o year_n purchase_n when_o this_o encumbrance_n be_v upon_o they_o when_o these_o bank_n be_v set_v up_o so_o that_o the_o owner_n of_o land_n will_v have_v no_o cause_n to_o complain_v whilst_o the_o value_n of_o their_o land_n be_v double_a object_n 2._o the_o crown_n

the_o well-being_n of_o people_n especial_o if_o they_o be_v rich_a and_o live_v at_o ease_n that_o they_o never_o rise_v in_o rebellion_n for_o fear_v of_o lose_v their_o riches_n and_o lest_o they_o be_v disquiet_v in_o and_o deprive_v of_o that_o peaceable_a and_o plentiful_a condition_n they_o possess_v fool_n may_v grow_v wanton_a with_o peace_n and_o plenty_n they_o will_v be_v easy_o curb_v but_o it_o be_v oppression_n only_o that_o make_v wise_a man_n mad_a then_o people_n rebel_n when_o they_o be_v or_o at_o least_o think_v themselves_o to_o be_v so_o oppress_v or_o that_o their_o condition_n will_v sudden_o be_v so_o bad_a that_o if_o they_o be_v disappoint_v in_o their_o rebellion_n it_o can_v be_v much_o worse_o the_o prince_n have_v the_o militia_n by_o sea_n and_o land_n the_o power_n of_o peace_n and_o war_n a_o considerable_a revenue_n his_o friend_n at_o home_n and_o confederate_n abroad_o and_o may_v easy_o disperse_v a_o storm_n arise_v from_o a_o small_a party_n of_o inconsiderable_a wanton_a fool_n the_o estate_n of_o the_o people_n will_v be_v in_o these_o bank_n if_o they_o prove_v resty_a they_o be_v obnoxious_a to_o justice_n though_o the_o people_n be_v rich_a in_o good_n and_o land_n yet_o they_o will_v have_v little_a money_n in_o specie_fw-la which_o be_v the_o cord_n of_o war._n the_o lazy_a person_n be_v always_o the_o most_o turbulent_a person_n employ_v in_o honest_a occupation_n that_o bring_v in_o a_o pleasant_a livelihood_n never_o think_v of_o make_v disturbance_n but_o mind_v their_o own_o business_n object_n 3._o the_o other_o great_a objection_n be_v from_o the_o people_n against_o the_o prince_n suppose_v say_v they_o the_o bulk_n of_o the_o money_n of_o the_o nation_n be_v gather_v into_o and_o lodge_v in_o these_o bank_n the_o king_n have_v the_o militia_n and_o may_v easy_o surprise_v it_o and_o so_o make_v himself_o absolute_a and_o for_o this_o reason_n bank_n and_o trade_n never_o thrive_v under_o a_o monarchy_n answ_n it_o be_v very_o true_a the_o great_a trade_n of_o the_o world_n have_v be_v drive_v by_o commonwealth_n as_o tyre_n athens_n rhodes_n syracuse_n agrigentum_n carthage_n venice_n amsterdam_n but_o i_o do_v not_o see_v any_o reason_n why_o it_o may_v not_o flourish_v under_o a_o monarchy_n as_o it_o do_v sometime_o at_o bruges_n and_o antwerp_n and_o do_v now_o at_o florence_n suppose_v the_o monarchy_n be_v bound_v as_o it_o be_v here_o with_o we_o trade_n indeed_o can_v never_o rise_v to_o and_o continue_v at_o any_o great_a height_n in_o france_n by_o reason_n the_o king_n be_v so_o absolute_a it_o be_v against_o the_o very_a nature_n of_o man_n that_o be_v ingenious_a to_o be_v frugal_a and_o industrious_a when_o the_o fruit_n of_o all_o his_o labour_n be_v obnoxious_a to_o the_o pleasure_n of_o a_o other_o man._n but_o as_o thing_n stand_v with_o we_o 1._o our_o monarch_n can_v 2._o our_o monarch_n will_v not_o violate_v these_o bank_n 1._o our_o monarch_n can_v though_o he_o have_v the_o militia_n violate_v these_o bank_n because_o they_o be_v set_v up_o in_o several_a place_n and_o can_v be_v surprise_v all_o at_o once_o if_o great_a number_n be_v send_v to_o one_o place_n the_o other_o bank_n will_v disperse_v their_o money_n before_o that_o can_v be_v attempt_v jealousy_n be_v very_o quick_a sight_v if_o there_o be_v the_o least_o appearance_n of_o danger_n the_o bank_n will_v disperse_v the_o money_n among_o the_o neighbourhood_n as_o be_v provide_v in_o the_o act_n they_o will_v rather_o disperse_v it_o ten_o time_n when_o there_o be_v no_o just_a cause_n than_o be_v surprise_v once_o especial_o see_v they_o can_v so_o easy_o call_v it_o in_o again_o thus_o the_o prince_n can_v seize_v the_o bank_n to_o get_v any_o considerable_a quantity_n of_o money_n 2._o we_o can_v hardly_o imagine_v such_o a_o king_n will_v ever_o arise_v in_o england_n that_o will_v violate_v these_o bank_n interest_n rule_v the_o world_n and_o we_o may_v suppose_v it_o will_v over-rule_v prince_n when_o it_o be_v considerable_a evident_a and_o apparent_a it_o be_v evident_a no_o king_n will_v violate_v these_o bank_n because_o 1._o he_o can_v get_v nothing_o considerable_a by_o attempt_v they_o but_o 2_o must_v lose_v a_o great_a deal_n by_o offer_v any_o violence_n to_o they_o 1._o he_o can_v get_v no_o great_a store_n of_o money_n as_o i_o have_v show_v if_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o considerable_a quantity_n of_o tin_n there_o when_o the_o soldier_n have_v take_v it_o out_o all_o at_o once_o it_o will_v be_v worth_a little_a no_o people_n will_v give_v they_o any_o thing_n for_o it_o but_o rather_o tell_v they_o they_o have_v steal_v it_o as_o the_o king_n can_v get_v no_o money_n and_o can_v make_v little_a use_n of_o tin_n so_o he_o can_v make_v no_o use_n of_o bill_n of_o credit_n which_o the_o soldier_n may_v force_v the_o master_n of_o the_o bank_n to_o give_v out_o but_o the_o bank_n be_v under_o violence_n their_o credit_n immediate_o cease_v to_o be_v currant_n like_o the_o apple_n of_o sodom_n touch_v they_o and_o they_o turn_v to_o dust_n 2_o the_o king_n by_o offer_v violence_n to_o these_o bank_n must_v lose_v all_o the_o great_a advantage_n before_o mention_v appropriate_a to_o the_o crown_n or_o more_o mediate_o come_v to_o it_o by_o the_o people_n advantage_n he_o kill_v the_o goose_n that_o lay_v the_o golden_a egg_n and_o know_v there_o be_v no_o more_o in_o her_o belly_n which_o be_v to_o be_v imprudent_a beyond_o the_o fable_n we_o can_v hardly_o imagine_v any_o prince_n shall_v so_o far_o forget_v himself_o if_o he_o have_v in_o truth_n that_o fabulous_a philosopher_n stone_n that_o he_o shall_v in_o mere_a humour_n cast_v it_o away_o these_o bank_n right_o manage_v will_v every_o way_n answer_v the_o advantage_n of_o that_o stone_n if_o it_o can_v be_v have_v if_o a_o prince_n have_v real_o that_o stone_n he_o will_v not_o keep_v it_o himself_o and_o turn_v founder_n that_o be_v below_o he_o beside_o he_o must_v needs_o be_v torture_v with_o continual_a fear_n lest_o it_o shall_v be_v steal_v from_o he_o
