A44078	Humble proposals for the relief, encouragement, security and happiness of the loyal, couragious seamen of England, in their lives and payment, in the service of our Most Gracious King William, and the defence of these nations humbly presented to the two most Honourable Houses, the Lords and Commons of England, in Parliament assembled / by a faithful subject of His Majesty, and servant to the Parliament and nation, and the seamen of England, in order for safety and security of all aforesaid, W. Hodges ; to which is added, a dialogue concerning the art of ticket-buying, in a discourse between Honesty, Poverty, Cruelty and Villany, concerning that mystery of iniquity, and ruin of the loyal seamen.	Hodges, William, Sir, 1645?-1714.	1695 (1695)	Wing H2329; ESTC R2277	51,833	63

to_o all_o hazard_n and_o they_o to_o none_o but_o take_v my_o mony_n so_o it_o be_v in_o a_o nation_n if_o we_o have_v not_o trade_v this_o war_n we_o have_v be_v ruin_v and_o if_o we_o lose_v not_o more_o than_o we_o get_v clear_a profit_n we_o shall_v live_v at_o last_o though_o by_o the_o way_n the_o world_n may_v admire_v at_o we_o that_o have_v near_o twice_o the_o number_n of_o man_n of_o war_n employ_v that_o the_o dutch_a have_v and_o yet_o that_o they_o shall_v have_v so_o many_o million_o of_o riches_n come_v home_o from_o the_o indies_n and_o other_o part_n this_o year_n and_o other_o year_n and_o hardly_o lose_v any_o almost_o to_o speak_v of_o except_o what_o they_o have_v lose_v in_o our_o company_n for_o where_o they_o take_v care_n of_o their_o own_o concern_v themselves_o for_o the_o most_o part_n they_o go_v and_o come_v well_o but_o in_o conclusion_n i_o do_v suppose_v beside_o their_o preservation_n of_o their_o ship_n if_o i_o be_o not_o under_o a_o misapprehension_n they_o save_v a_o million_o of_o money_n a_o year_n more_o than_o we_o in_o their_o ship_n of_o war_n and_o man_n wage_n and_o it_o may_v be_v half_a a_o million_o more_o in_o the_o very_a wage_n of_o seaman_n in_o their_o merchant_n service_n and_o if_o they_o spend_v less_o by_o half_n and_o lose_v less_o by_o eight_o part_n in_o ten_o they_o will_v outdo_v we_o in_o trade_n and_o it_o be_v not_o our_o make_v a_o noise_n and_o keep_v our_o seaman_n on_o board_n of_o ship_n until_o they_o die_v will_v save_v our_o trade_n alive_a but_o first_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n 2._o the_o increase_n and_o encouragement_n of_o our_o seaman_n and_o our_o preserve_v they_o alive_a and_o have_v enough_o to_o supply_v the_o merchantman_n with_o seaman_n cheap_a and_o then_o have_v man_n to_o order_v our_o convoy_n at_o least_o with_o as_o much_o common_a sense_n to_o preserve_v our_o merchant_n ship_n and_o meet_v they_o as_o soon_o and_o take_v they_o home_o to_o england_n for_o time_n to_o come_v as_o the_o french_a use_n to_o do_v to_o meet_v they_o to_o take_v they_o home_o to_o france_n that_o we_o may_v not_o be_v a_o grief_n to_o our_o friend_n and_o a_o joy_n to_o our_o enemy_n and_o a_o byword_n to_o the_o world_n i_o bless_v god_n i_o love_v my_o native_a country_n well_o and_o our_o gracious_a king_n william_n well_o and_o if_o i_o do_v not_o i_o will_v not_o be_v so_o plain_a heart_a and_o as_o to_o what_o i_o say_v before_o we_o must_v for_o time_n to_o come_v employ_v at_o least_o half_a as_o many_o seaman_n more_o in_o time_n of_o peace_n than_o ever_o we_o do_v and_o to_o do_v it_o in_o time_n of_o peace_n if_o we_o will_v when_o ever_o god_n in_o mercy_n send_v we_o peace_n then_o mind_n the_o very_a fish_n trade_n at_o our_o own_o

which_o i_o have_v by_o i_o that_o the_o dutch_a do_v employ_v in_o our_o british_a sea_n which_o he_o say_v be_v a_o continual_a harvest_n and_o do_v employ_v 6400_o ship_n and_o buss_n and_o 120000_o man_n at_o sea_n whereby_o he_o say_v that_o holland_n itself_o be_v but_o 28_o mile_n in_o length_n and_o a_o few_o in_o breadth_n employ_v in_o all_o their_o sea-trade_n 10000_o sail_n of_o ship_n and_o he_o say_v that_o lubeck_n have_v 700_o sail_n of_o ship_n hamborough_n 600_o emden_n more_o beside_o freeman_n and_o other_o nation_n that_o fish_n and_o trade_n in_o our_o sea_n and_o he_o say_v that_o the_o very_a custom_n of_o their_o fish_n trade_n of_o holland_n come_v to_o 500000_o l_o the_o year_n include_v the_o ten_o fish_n and_o cask_n pay_v for_o waftage_n and_o this_o if_o think_v of_o by_o england_n when_o ever_o god_n shall_v send_v peace_n will_v be_v the_o way_n to_o employ_v and_o increase_v our_o seaman_n and_o to_o have_v a_o sufficient_a number_n always_o ready_a to_o serve_v the_o king_n and_o country_n at_o 2_o month_n warn_v and_o not_o suffer_v our_o seaman_n in_o peace_n to_o rove_v all_o over_o the_o world_n for_o employment_n to_o get_v bread_n yea_o to_o go_v some_o thousand_o into_o the_o west_n indies_n a_o buckaneer_a for_o want_v of_o bread_n at_o home_n this_o be_v by_o the_o way_n it_o may_v be_v something_o of_o this_o may_v be_v mind_v some_o year_n hence_o and_o this_o i_o will_v leave_v as_o a_o memorandum_n that_o since_o france_n be_v grow_v so_o prodigious_a great_a if_o we_o double_v not_o our_o diligence_n they_o will_v endeavour_v to_o outwit_n we_o in_o peace_n or_o war_n and_o it_o may_v be_v they_o may_v be_v to_o england_n as_o the_o philistine_n be_v to_o israel_n when_o we_o fall_v deep_o to_o sin_v they_o may_v be_v raise_v up_o to_o scourge_v we_o and_o the_o lord_n prevent_v the_o cause_n and_o if_o it_o be_v his_o holy_a will_n enable_v we_o to_o bring_v they_o under_o 11._o and_o i_o will_v

lead_v with_o a_o twine_v thread_n up_o to_o the_o muzzle_n of_o their_o enemy_n gun_n at_o any_o time_n by_o stout_a good_a nature_a commander_n but_o hate_v to_o be_v abuse_v like_o dog_n and_o i_o

of_o all_o they_o have_v in_o the_o world_n as_o there_o have_v be_v seaman_n strip_v of_o their_o pay_n it_o will_v have_v make_v a_o dreadful_a outcry_n in_o england_n and_o indeed_o if_o our_o

their_o poor_a ruin_a husband_n be_v run_v

out_o of_o their_o pay_n without_o petition_v which_o if_o there_o be_v twenty_o thousand_o turn_n over_o in_o a_o year_n may_v make_v work_n for_o the_o clerk_n of_o the_o petition_n and_o his_o

and_o will_v not_o this_o be_v brave_a time_n for_o he_o but_o i_o remember_v in_o all_o calamity_n some_o dreadful_a wretch_n get_v money_n in_o the_o time_n of_o the_o plague_n of_o london_n in_o

poor_a wife_n shall_v not_o have_v liberty_n to_o get_v a_o clerk_n to_o search_v the_o book_n to_o see_v if_o they_o be_v cheat_v of_o their_o pay_n or_o no_o before_o payday_n be_v sad_a but_o i_o confess_v it_o be_v a_o good_a way_n to_o hide_v knavery_n for_o if_o money_n be_v say_v to_o be_v pay_v the_o party_n and_o be_v not_o and_o he_o appear_v himself_o it_o be_v a_o timely_a notice_n to_o get_v another_o book_n to_o show_v he_o that_o it_o be_v only_o order_v to_o be_v pay_v he_o but_o if_o he_o be_v dead_a or_o go_v and_o never_o come_v himself_o than_o it_o may_v stand_v pay_v the_o party_n until_o doomsday_n and_o if_o he_o come_v it_o be_v a_o mistake_n and_o beside_o this_o have_v a_o sight_n of_o the_o book_n may_v be_v a_o great_a help_n to_o extortioner_n and_o ticket-buyer_n if_o they_o get_v the_o book_n search_v private_o they_o may_v buy_v as_o they_o please_v and_o whether_o this_o be_v not_o turn_v the_o blind_a out_o of_o their_o way_n see_v the_o seman_n wife_n have_v most_o time_n nothing_o but_o the_o book_n to_o know_v what_o be_v due_a and_o if_o they_o be_v run_v at_o payday_n it_o may_v be_v be_v force_v to_o petition_n and_o stay_v for_o their_o money_n another_o year_n and_o this_o be_v misery_n to_o misery_n 10._o therefore_o i_o think_v they_o ought_v for_o time_n to_o come_v to_o have_v no_o seaman_n discharge_v without_o a_o ticket_n and_o no_o officer_n keep_v his_o ticket_n on_o pain_n of_o felony_n for_o in_o plain_a english_a which_o be_v worst_a a_o pickpocket_n steal_v a_o guinea_n or_o two_o from_o a_o gentleman_n or_o a_o captain_n of_o a_o man_n of_o war_n to_o take_v a_o seaman_n ticket_n from_o he_o of_o ten_o pound_n and_o it_o may_v be_v the_o poor_a seaman_n nor_o his_o wife_n and_o family_n have_v not_o a_o groat_n in_o the_o world_n to_o buy_v a_o bit_n of_o bread_n therefore_o if_o there_o be_v not_o relief_n to_o poor_a ruin_a seaman_n i_o will_v never_o more_o wonder_v we_o fool_n away_o knock_v on_o the_o head_n betray_v and_o destroy_v so_o many_o man_n of_o war_n and_o merchant_n ship_n but_o 11._o and_o none_o to_o wait_v above_o one_o payment_n for_o one_o ticket_n also_o for_o time_n to_o come_v and_o not_o wait_v 3_o year_n for_o 30_o s_o at_o two_o payment_n of_o a_o ticket_n as_o have_v be_v common_a this_o war_n and_o whether_o this_o be_v not_o misery_n to_o

property_n when_o sick_a and_o die_v no_o marvel_n if_o they_o be_v glad_a to_o get_v away_o and_o i_o will_v ask_v all_o mankind_n and_o will_v appeal_v to_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n what_o shall_v be_v the_o cause_n the_o king_n service_n now_o shall_v be_v more_o a_o prison_n than_o in_o other_o age_n and_o why_o so_o gracious_a a_o king_n service_n shall_v be_v make_v such_o a_o

more_o run_v away_o from_o the_o service_n than_o will_v man_n it_o all_o and_o half_o over_o again_o and_o if_o they_o be_v run_v out_o of_o their_o pay_n wrongful_o it_o be_v shameful_a and_o

than_o have_v run_v away_o in_o this_o nation_n i_o do_v very_o suppose_v this_o fifty_o year_n if_o all_o the_o old_a book_n and_o new_a book_n be_v search_v so_o that_o i_o say_v experience_n show_v the_o misery_n of_o that_o argument_n of_o pay_v they_o on_o board_n ship_n by_o the_o loss_n of_o near_o forty_o thousand_o life_n and_o sixty_o or_o seventy_o thousand_o man_n pay_n whereas_o have_v their_o life_n be_v preserve_v and_o their_o pay_n encourage_v on_o shore_n in_o all_o likelihood_n seaman_n will_v have_v be_v so_o increase_v and_o thereby_o their_o pay_n in_o merchant_n ship_n near_o half_a jess_n that_o consider_v the_o hazard_n of_o lose_a voyage_n in_o merchant_n ship_n they_o will_v there_o have_v thousand_o of_o they_o prove_v my_o word_n good_a that_o i_o use_v to_o

pay_v the_o pinch-gut-mony_n also_o honest_o and_o thus_o i_o will_v by_o the_o way_n consider_v that_o we_o can_v expect_v to_o be_v in_o safety_n for_o time_n to_o come_v without_o we_o do_v by_o humility_n justice_n and_o mercy_n engage_v god_n to_o stand_v by_o we_o and_o give_v we_o wisdom_n and_o his_o blessing_n in_o the_o first_o place_n and_o two_o as_o to_o outward_a mean_n in_o a_o

though_o now_o we_o have_v the_o dutch_a unite_v with_o we_o and_o it_o may_v be_v save_o 20_o or_o 30_o ship_n and_o 10000_o man_n the_o time_n may_v fall_v out_o we_o may_v stand_v alone_o and_o two_o what_o have_v be_v may_v be_v and_o the_o french_a and_o another_o nation_n have_v join_v against_o we_o and_o then_o we_o need_v double_a the_o strength_n and_o number_n of_o man_n we_o have_v
