labour_n cost_n or_o skill_n than_o other_o seed_n and_o further_o that_o the_o material_n make_v from_o these_o be_v extreme_o necessary_a for_o how_o miserable_a shall_v we_o be_v without_o linen_n canvas_n cordage_n net_n how_o can_v we_o put_v our_o ship_n to_o sea_n which_o be_v the_o bulwark_n of_o this_o isle_n and_o yet_o we_o be_v necessitate_v to_o have_v these_o commodity_n from_o those_o who_o will_v destroy_v i_o will_v not_o say_v the_o nation_n but_o i_o may_v bold_o say_v our_o ship_n and_o trade_n i_o hope_v that_o this_o will_v more_o serious_o be_v consider_v by_o those_o at_o the_o helm_n of_o our_o state_n i_o will_v free_o and_o plain_o relate_v how_o this_o deficiency_n may_v easy_o be_v remedy_v according_a to_o my_o judgement_n 1._o to_o compel_v by_o a_o law_n that_o all_o farmer_n who_o plough_n and_o sow_v 50._o or_o 100_o acre_n of_o land_n shall_v sow_v half_o a_o acre_n or_o a_o acre_n of_o hemp_n or_o flax_n or_o to_o pay_v 5._o s._n or_o 10._o s._n to_o the_o poor_a of_o the_o parish_n where_o they_o live_v or_o some_o law_n to_o this_o purpose_n for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n but_o have_v land_n fit_a for_o one_o of_o these_o hemp_n desire_v a_o stiff_a land_n flax_n that_o which_o be_v light_n for_o there_o be_v so_o much_o irrationality_n in_o some_o profession_n that_o they_o must_v be_v force_v even_o like_o brute_n to_o understand_v their_o own_o good_a in_o king_n edward_n the_o 6._o day_n something_a be_v enact_v to_o this_o purpose_n as_o i_o be_o inform_v in_o henry_n 8._o day_n there_o be_v a_o law_n enact_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v sow_v his_o land_n and_o that_o no_o man_n shall_v enclose_v his_o land_n lest_o he_o shall_v turn_v it_o to_o pasture_n for_o we_o have_v have_v great_a dearth_n in_o england_n through_o the_o neglect_n of_o tillage_n which_o law_n even_o as_o yet_o stand_v in_o force_n yet_o there_o be_v nor_o need_v there_o be_v any_o force_n to_o compel_v man_n to_o till_o and_o sow_v their_o land_n for_o they_o have_v at_o length_n find_v the_o sweetness_n and_o willing_o go_v about_o it_o for_o their_o own_o profit_n sake_n and_o now_o we_o suppose_v and_o not_o without_o cause_n that_o enclose_v be_v a_o improvement_n and_o so_o concern_v hemp_n and_o flax_n i_o say_v if_o they_o be_v once_o accustom_v to_o sow_v they_o they_o will_v never_o leave_v it_o as_o i_o see_v farmer_n do_v in_o east-kent_n scarce_o a_o man_n but_o he_o will_v have_v a_o considerable_a plot_n of_o ground_n for_o hemp_n and_o about_o london_n far_o great_a quantity_n of_o flax_n be_v sow_o then_o former_o 2._o it_o be_v convenient_a that_o every_o parish_n through_o the_o nation_n shall_v have_v a_o stock_n for_o to_o set_v their_o poor_a to_o work_v that_o the_o young_a child_n and_o woman_n may_v not_o run_v up_o and_o down_o idle_a and_o beg_v or_o steal_v as_o they_o do_v in_o the_o country_n of_o apple_n pease_n wood_n hedges_n and_o so_o by_o little_a and_o little_a be_v train_v up_o for_o the_o gallow_n 3._o that_o a_o severe_a law_n shall_v be_v enact_v against_o those_o who_o run_v up_o and_o down_o and_o will_v not_o work_v for_o if_o all_o know_v that_o they_o may_v have_v work_n at_o home_n and_o earn_v more_o within_o door_n honest_o then_o by_o run_v rogue_v up_o and_o down_o why_o shall_v they_o not_o compel_v they_o to_o it_o and_o though_o some_o may_v think_v the_o parish_n will_v lose_v much_o by_o this_o way_n because_o that_o the_o stock_n wrought_v will_v not_o be_v put_v off_o but_o with_o loss_n as_o perhaps_o 10._o l._n will_v be_v bring_v to_o 8._o l._n yet_o let_v they_o consider_v how_o much_o they_o shall_v save_v at_o their_o door_n how_o many_o inconvenience_n they_o be_v free_v from_o their_o hedge_n in_o the_o country_n shall_v not_o be_v pull_v their_o fruit_n steal_v nor_o their_o corn_n purloin_v and_o further_o that_o the_o poor_a will_v be_v train_v up_o to_o work_v and_o therefore_o fit_a for_o any_o service_n yea_o and_o in_o their_o youth_n learn_v a_o call_n by_o the_o which_o they_o may_v get_v a_o honest_a lively_a hood_n and_o i_o dare_v say_v their_o assessment_n for_o the_o poor_a will_v not_o be_v so_o frequent_a nor_o the_o poor_a so_o numerous_a and_o the_o benefit_n which_o redownd_v to_o the_o nation_n will_v be_v very_o great_a 4._o the_o charitable_a deed_n of_o our_o forefather_n aught_o to_o be_v inquire_v after_o that_o they_o be_v not_o misplace_v as_o usual_o they_o be_v but_o be_v real_o bestow_v for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o poor_a that_o be_v laborious_a as_o in_o london_n be_v begin_v and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o that_o will_v not_o work_v take_v saint_n paul_n rule_n who_o best_o know_v what_o be_v best_a for_o they_o i_o dare_v not_o advise_v to_o take_v in_o part_n of_o commons_o fen_n etc._n etc._n and_o to_o improve_v they_o for_o this_o use_n lest_o i_o shall_v too_o much_o provoke_v the_o rude_a merciless_a multitude_n but_o to_o return_v to_o my_o discourse_n i_o say_v that_o sow_v hemp_n and_o flax_n will_v be_v very_o beneficial_a 1._o to_o the_o owner_n of_o land_n for_o man_n usual_o give_v in_o divers_a place_n 3._o l._n per_fw-la acre_n to_o sow_v hemp_n and_o flax_n as_o i_o have_v see_v at_o maidstone_n in_o kent_n which_o be_v the_o only_a place_n i_o know_v in_o england_n where_o thread_n be_v make_v and_o though_o nigh_o a_o hundred_o hand_n be_v employ_v about_o it_o yet_o they_o make_v not_o enough_o for_o this_o nation_n and_o yet_o get_v good_a profit_n how_o advantageous_a will_v this_o be_v to_o those_o who_o have_v drain_v the_o fen_n where_o questionless_a hemp_n will_v flourish_v and_o exsiccate_a the_o ground_n for_o hemp_n desire_v stiff_o moist_a land_n as_o flax_n light_n and_o dry_a and_o like_o wise_a to_o those_o in_o the_o north_n of_o england_n where_o land_n be_v very_o cheap_a i_o hope_v in_o a_o little_a time_n ireland_n will_v furnish_v we_o with_o these_o commodity_n if_o we_o be_v idle_a for_o there_o land_n be_v very_o cheap_a and_o those_o seed_n need_v no_o enclosure_n for_o cattle_n will_v not_o touch_v they_o neither_o do_v it_o fear_v the_o plunderer_n either_o in_o the_o field_n or_o barn_n 2._o it_o be_v profitable_a to_o the_o sour_a i_o know_v that_o they_o usual_o value_v a_o acre_n at_o 10._o or_o 12._o l._n which_o co_v they_o usual_o but_o half_a the_o money_n whether_o there_o be_v flax_n that_o will_v yield_v 30._o or_o 40._o l._n per_fw-la acre_n as_o some_o report_n i_o know_v not_o 3._o to_o the_o place_n where_o it_o be_v sow_v because_o it_o set_v many_o poor_a to_o work_v i_o wish_v it_o be_v encourage_v more_o in_o the_o north_n than_o it_o be_v because_o there_o be_v many_o poor_a who_o can_v willing_o take_v pain_n and_o though_o spin_v of_o linen_n be_v but_o a_o poor_a work_n yet_o it_o be_v light_n and_o may_v be_v call_v woman_n recreation_n and_o in_o france_n and_o spain_n the_o best_a citizen_n wife_n think_v it_o no_o disgrace_n to_o go_v about_o spin_v with_o their_o rock_n and_o though_o in_o some_o part_n the_o poor_a think_v it_o nothing_o to_o earn_v 4._o or_o 6._o d._n per_fw-la day_n and_o will_v as_o soon_o stand_v with_o their_o hand_n in_o their_o pocket_n as_o work_v cheap_a yet_o in_o the_o north_n they_o account_v it_o well_o to_o earn_v 3._o d._n or_o 4._o d._n by_o spin_v which_o they_o may_v do_v last_o it_o will_v be_v very_o beneficial_a to_o this_o nation_n and_o save_v many_o thousand_o pound_n i_o may_v say_v 100_o thousand_o which_o be_v expect_v either_o in_o cash_n or_o good_a commodity_n and_o we_o shall_v not_o be_v behold_v to_o holland_n for_o fine_a linen_n and_o cordage_n nor_o to_o france_n for_o poldavice_n locram_n canvaces_n net_n nor_o to_o flaunders_n for_o thread_n but_o may_v be_v supply_v abundant_o with_o these_o necessary_a commodity_n even_o at_o our_o own_o door_n there_o be_v no_o small_a deficiency_n in_o dung_v and_o manure_v land_n both_o because_o that_o all_o manner_n of_o manure_v land_n 9_o deficiency_n concern_v dung_v and_o manure_a land_n and_o amend_v land_n be_v not_o know_v to_o every_o one_o and_o also_o that_o they_o do_v not_o employ_v all_o they_o know_v to_o the_o best_a use_n i_o will_v therefore_o set_v down_o most_o of_o the_o way_n i_o have_v see_v here_o in_o england_n and_o beyond_o sea_n by_o which_o land_n be_v improve_v and_o the_o best_a way_n to_o use_v the_o same_o 1._o to_o begin_v with_o chalk_n which_o be_v as_o old_a a_o way_n as_o julius_n caesar_n time_n as_o he_o himself_o
