be_v just_o a_o year_n from_o the_o time_n he_o go_v down_o to_o the_o mine_n ld._n a._n i_o think_v he_o have_v propose_v it_o much_o soon_o i_o be_o sure_a i_o have_v hear_v some_o person_n say_v so_o merch._n i_o remember_v that_o a_o eminent_a counsel_n be_v charge_v with_o give_v a_o opinion_n that_o do_v not_o hold_v good_a in_o westminster-hall_n ask_v the_o gentleman_n where_o he_o give_v such_o a_o opinion_n for_o he_o do_v not_o remember_v it_o nor_o can_v he_o find_v his_o name_n in_o his_o book_n of_o fee_n no_o say_v the_o gentleman_n but_o if_o you_o remember_v sir_n i_o meet_v you_o on_o the_o road_n between_o worcester_n and_o london_n and_o put_v this_o case_n to_o you_o that_o may_v be_v indeed_o say_v the_o lawyer_n have_v you_o no_o more_o wit_n than_o to_o try_v your_o cause_n upon_o a_o travel_a opinion_n so_o i_o doubt_v this_o may_v be_v a_o sudden_a opinion_n from_o mr._n waller_n he_o be_v a_o sanguine_a man_n and_o such_o man_n be_v apt_a to_o believe_v what_o they_o mighty_o wish_v for_o and_o yet_o i_o fancy_v he_o never_o give_v such_o a_o opinion_n but_o with_o his_o usual_a precaution_n in_o case_n the_o rock_n under_o ground_n do_v not_o prove_v hard_o than_o they_o be_v at_o that_o time_n but_o since_o they_o do_v and_o to_o such_o a_o degree_n of_o hardness_n that_o whereas_o the_o miner_n than_o make_v good_a wage_n upon_o a_o bargain_n of_o thirty_o shilling_n a_o fathom_n they_o can_v now_o scarce_o make_v their_o wage_n at_o six_o pound_n a_o fathom_n i_o think_v we_o shall_v be_v as_o hard_o upon_o he_o as_o the_o rock_n be_v if_o we_o shall_v tie_v he_o up_o to_o more_o than_o he_o deliberate_o propose_v in_o his_o essay_n ld._n b._n true_o i_o think_v so_o too_o and_o he_o do_v very_o fair_o if_o he_o keep_v that_o time_n for_o i_o seldom_o know_v a_o master-builder_n that_o promise_v to_o build_v a_o house_n in_o a_o year_n ever_o finish_v it_o under_o two_o some_o unlucky_a accident_n or_o other_o frequent_o fall_v out_o beyond_o expectation_n to_o delay_v the_o work_n though_o at_o last_o he_o may_v finish_v a_o very_a stately_a pile_n of_o building_n and_o give_v very_o good_a content_a merch._n your_o lordship_n observe_v very_o well_o but_o in_o this_o case_n we_o have_v reason_n to_o believe_v mr._n waller_n will_v use_v his_o utmost_a endeavour_n because_o his_o salary_n be_v to_o arise_v out_o of_o the_o profit_n of_o the_o mine_n and_o i_o find_v by_o his_o letter_n he_o have_v a_o good_a heart_n still_o he_o tell_v the_o committee_n that_o if_o they_o will_v have_v a_o little_a patience_n he_o doubt_v not_o but_o to_o show_v they_o welsh_a potozi_n more_o glorious_a than_o they_o expect_v or_o he_o ever_o promise_v ld._n a._n consider_v all_o circumstance_n how_o deep_o he_o adventure_n himself_o and_o how_o he_o still_o stand_v his_o ground_n i_o must_v confess_v i_o can_v but_o think_v he_o believe_v he_o shall_v make_v a_o great_a thing_n of_o it_o but_o yet_o i_o perceive_v many_o person_n do_v not_o fancy_v those_o high_a expression_n i_o think_v his_o forty_o pound_n a_o year_n for_o every_o share_n do_v he_o no_o great_a kindness_n merch._n that_o matter_n have_v indeed_o be_v the_o most_o expose_v by_o our_o adversary_n about_o town_n of_o any_o thing_n for_o many_o person_n take_v thing_n upon_o common_a fame_n without_o read_v over_o the_o essay_n and_o proposal_n at_o large_a real_o think_v that_o the_o adventurer_n be_v to_o have_v forty_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la for_o every_o share_n present_o without_o any_o more_o ado_n whereas_o mr._n waller_n do_v only_o write_v a_o essay_n on_o the_o value_n of_o the_o mine_n not_o a_o positive_a valuation_n and_o there_o offer_v to_o the_o old_a partner_n with_o all_o due_a submission_n to_o better_a judgement_n his_o opinion_n thereof_o together_o with_o his_o reason_n at_o large_a for_o the_o same_o that_o they_o may_v themselves_o judge_v of_o the_o validity_n of_o they_o by_o all_o which_o he_o do_v indeed_o seem_v to_o demonstrate_v to_o my_o poor_a capacity_n that_o in_o time_n with_o a_o large_a stock_n and_o good_a management_n the_o mine_n may_v be_v bring_v to_o a_o extraordinary_a great_a value_n and_o then_o it_o be_v observe_v that_o at_o the_o high_a valuation_n every_o share_n will_v be_v worth_a forty_o pound_n per_fw-la annum_fw-la but_o mr._n waller_n positive_o declare_v in_o the_o very_a entrance_n of_o his_o essay_n pag._n 6._o that_o he_o expect_v one_o year_n to_o put_v the_o work_n in_o order_n and_o even_o then_o though_o a_o considerable_a profit_n may_v be_v make_v yet_o he_o do_v not_o pretend_v under_o some_o year_n more_o to_o bring_v the_o work_n to_o the_o high_a valuation_n that_o be_v to_o forty_o pound_n a_o year_n for_o every_o share_n but_o what_o he_o mean_v by_o some_o year_n i_o can_v tell_v nor_o i_o believe_v he_o can_v but_o guess_v himself_o for_o all_o that_o depend_v on_o accident_n under_o ground_n and_o on_o the_o management_n by_o the_o partner_n but_o here_o be_v nothing_o that_o can_v lead_v any_o rational_a person_n that_o read_v this_o book_n into_o a_o expectation_n of_o have_v forty_o pound_n a_o year_n present_o ld._n a._n no_o certain_o but_o be_v there_o nothing_o in_o the_o other_o proposal_n that_o can_v lead_v the_o world_n into_o this_o mistake_n merch._n no_o my_o lord_n it_o be_v so_o far_o from_o that_o that_o all_o those_o paper_n even_o the_o print_a list_n at_o the_o draw_v where_o the_o publisher_n that_o agree_v with_o the_o clerk_n for_o the_o copy_n put_v it_o in_o to_o make_v the_o list_n sell_v the_o better_a for_o their_o own_o profit_n all_o refer_v to_o the_o say_a essay_n and_o although_o mr._n waller_n valuation_n be_v very_o proper_a to_o be_v take_v notice_n of_o upon_o such_o a_o occasion_n yet_o the_o value_n of_o the_o mine_n in_o all_o the_o proposal_n of_o the_o mine-adventure_n be_v express_o set_v at_o less_o than_o a_o fourteen_o part_n of_o mr._n waller_n be_v calculation_n which_o perhaps_o be_v as_o much_o too_o little_a as_o the_o other_o be_v think_v too_o great_a ld._n b._n that_o be_v very_o cautious_o do_v indeed_o and_o sufficient_a to_o prevent_v such_o a_o mistake_n but_o if_o person_n will_v buy_v a_o estate_n and_o never_o look_v over_o the_o write_n it_o be_v their_o own_o fault_n if_o they_o expect_v more_o than_o they_o ought_v but_o pray_v sir_n will_v nothing_o less_o than_o forty_o pound_n a_o year_n present_o for_o every_o share_n serve_v their_o turn_n how_o much_o be_v that_o per_fw-la cent._n profit_n merch._n forty_o pound_n a_o year_n at_o ten_o year_n purchase_n for_o a_o lease_n of_o one_o and_o twenty_o year_n be_v worth_a four_o hundred_o pound_n and_o i_o think_v a_o share_n be_v value_v at_o that_o time_n at_o twenty_o pound_n or_o thereabouts_o and_o at_o that_o rate_n the_o gain_n from_o every_o share_n must_v have_v be_v two_o thousand_o pound_n for_o every_o hundred_o pound_n adventure_v ld._n a._n a_o very_a modest_a and_o reasonable_a expectation_n especial_o for_o such_o person_n who_o be_v to_o run_v no_o hazard_n in_o the_o adventure_n for_o

find_v that_o any_o of_o the_o adventurer_n do_v expect_v such_o a_o present_a profit_n but_o our_o adversary_n abroad_o have_v raise_v this_o notion_n on_o purpose_n to_o make_v themselves_o merry_a and_o ridicule_n this_o undertake_n ld._n b._n i_o remember_v a_o great_a general_n when_o he_o be_v tell_v that_o the_o conquer_a party_n make_v very_o severe_a song_n upon_o he_o instead_o of_o be_v
