A67246	An ansvver to the sope-makers complaint wherein is clearly demonstrated their scandalous aspersions, and the falacies of their atguments [sic] proved before the honourable committee for regulating the excise, Octob. 23. 1650. As also the proceedings of the proposers and their severall proposals: wherein is found nothing prejudiciall to the Common-wealth; no excise further being further added, no man restrained, no man oppressed, but that every man may make what he can, so he pay his due. In which, such care shall be taken, as may tend to the benefit of the Common-wealth, and the reputation and profit of the trade of the sope-maker of London. By him that is a lover of honesty, and a well-willer to that trade.	Walker, John, 1650-1730.	1650 (1650)	Wing W391B; ESTC R219915	7,396	15

one_o may_v pay_v exact_o and_o not_o break_v no_o more_o than_o i_o which_o i_o do_v abhor_v from_o your_o calumnious_a pen_n and_o dare_v to_o tell_v it_o to_o you_o that_o you_o unjust_o slander_v

neither_o you_o nor_o we_o will_v or_o can_v work_v for_o nothing_o and_o one_o thing_n let_v i_o tell_v you_o by_o the_o way_n i_o believe_v you_o have_v not_o get_v much_o by_o bob_v well_o but_o here_o i_o must_v resolve_v a_o riddle_n as_o it_o seem_v to_o i_o you_o tell_v they_o of_o our_o great_a house_n and_o a_o great_a trade_n and_o that_o we_o may_v prove_v the_o great_a one_o we_o

i_o pass_v it_o by_o for_o present_a but_o if_o i_o know_v but_o at_o this_o day_n what_o you_o be_v worth_a which_o for_o any_o thing_n i_o know_v may_v not_o be_v much_o and_o there_o be_v some_o

for_o i_o know_v some_o that_o join_v with_o you_o in_o subscribe_v that_o outwit_v you_o there_o and_o be_v always_o ready_a to_o help_v on_o another_o at_o a_o dead_a lift_n will_v rather_o than_o

the_o world_n to_o judge_v indeed_o your_o word_n and_o deed_n seldom_o agree_v submit_v then_o to_o the_o present_a power_n and_o threaten_v not_o the_o parliament_n 〈◊〉_d committee_n as_o may_v be_v
