A44077	The groans of the poor, the misery of traders, and the calamity of the publick for the spoiling of our money, for the want of our money, and for the loss that will befal the King and the nation, if there be not as much money coined in the room of it, to pay our taxes, drive our trades, pay our rents, and the the poor to buy bread : and an humble proposal to raise four millions of money for His Majesty's and the nation's use / humbly proposed by a faithful servant to His Majesty and the nation, William Hodges.	Hodges, William, Sir, 1645?-1714.	1696 (1696)	Wing H2328; ESTC R36001	23,173	37

above_o a_o hundred_o and_o thirty_o year_n and_o if_o it_o rise_v a_o three_o part_n in_o fifty_o year_n it_o may_v rise_v another_o three_o part_n from_o her_o time_n to_o some_o few_o year_n hence_o and_o in_o those_o former_a day_n they_o do_v find_v that_o all_o the_o law_n they_o can_v make_v can_v not_o keep_v their_o money_n until_o they_o make_v it_o less_o and_o queen_n elizabeth_n that_o most_o excellent_a governess_n of_o it_o all_o make_v it_o least_o of_o all_o and_o after_o she_o make_v the_o money_n less_o if_o the_o exchequer_n account_n be_v examine_v it_o will_v be_v find_v the_o custom_n bring_v in_o three_o time_n the_o valve_n to_o the_o crown_n and_o they_o that_o tell_v we_o money_n of_o a_o three_o part_v less_o weight_n if_o good_a milled_a silver_n money_n will_v not_o pay_v a_o foreign_a bill_n as_o well_o as_o all_o our_o own_o money_n that_o be_v not_o worth_a ten_o shilling_n in_o the_o pound_n will_v pay_v our_o english_a bill_n and_o all_o the_o lord_n and_o commons_o in_o england_n their_o rent_n do_v either_o seem_v to_o say_v the_o foreigner_n must_v be_v better_a provide_v for_o than_o they_o or_o in_o plain_a english_a the_o foreigner_n do_v not_o pay_v away_o the_o money_n again_o in_o england_n and_o so_o do_v blind_a the_o nation_n eye_n for_o if_o they_o pay_v it_o away_o again_o in_o england_n all_o mankind_n must_v say_v that_o which_o serve_v the_o king_n and_o the_o nation_n will_v serve_v they_o if_o they_o pay_v it_o away_o here_o to_o either_o king_n or_o country_n and_o therefore_o we_o do_v indeed_o need_v to_o watch_v all_o our_o port_n more_o secure_o and_o if_o we_o do_v it_o can_v go_v in_o the_o ceiling_n of_o ship_n or_o twenty_o odd_a place_n where_o none_o shall_v find_v it_o i_o remember_v a_o acquaintance_n of_o i_o tell_v i_o some_o year_n past_a he_o have_v a_o parcel_n of_o money_n in_o the_o ship_n and_o he_o know_v not_o of_o its_o come_n on_o board_n and_o the_o party_n that_o owe_v it_o be_v send_v for_o out_o of_o the_o ship_n upon_o some_o other_o account_n and_o he_o tell_v he_o where_o his_o money_n be_v and_o desire_v he_o to_o deliver_v it_o to_o such_o a_o one_o in_o holland_n and_o when_o he_o come_v there_o the_o owner_n of_o the_o money_n be_v get_v over_o in_o another_o vessel_n but_o will_v not_o pay_v my_o friend_n for_o take_v care_n of_o his_o money_n and_o my_o friend_n have_v he_o before_o the_o magistrate_n and_o for_o ten_o groat_n charge_v his_o cause_n be_v hear_v and_o they_o make_v the_o man_n pay_v he_o five_o pound_n for_o bring_v over_o his_o money_n now_o this_o they_o do_v to_o encourage_v he_o but_o this_o i_o will_v say_v we_o have_v need_v to_o keep_v our_o money_n with_o care_n for_o indeed_o our_o charge_n be_v near_o twelve_o time_n more_o this_o last_o seven_o year_n than_o any_o seven_o year_n of_o the_o reign_n of_o queen_n elizabeth_n be_v for_o though_o the_o spanish_a armada_n be_v near_o 128_o ship_n of_o war_n and_o the_o english_a but_o small_a ship_n yet_o the_o english_a do_v not_o run_v away_o from_o they_o but_o like_o englishman_n at_o they_o and_o fight_v they_o as_o they_o can_v and_o with_o their_o fireship_n divide_v they_o and_o break_v their_o fleet_n break_v their_o voyage_n and_o their_o heart_n also_o and_o if_o we_o have_v twelve_o time_n the_o charge_n and_o that_o we_o must_v of_o necessity_n have_v to_o defend_v ourselves_o and_o offend_v our_o enemy_n unless_o we_o will_v do_v as_o the_o poor_a miserable_a christian_n of_o constantinople_n do_v save_o their_o money_n and_o lose_v their_o city_n to_o the_o turk_n and_o we_o have_v a_o enemy_n to_o deal_v with_o more_o powerful_a and_o a_o great_a plague_n to_o christian_n than_o the_o turk_n have_v be_v these_o 20_o year_n and_o must_v defend_v ourselves_o and_o bless_v be_v god_n the_o parliament_n and_o nation_n be_v so_o ready_a to_o raise_v money_n for_o to_o defend_v ourselves_o but_o i_o say_v that_o great_a charge_n require_v twelve_o time_n more_o trade_n than_o be_v in_o queen_n elizabeth_n time_n to_o help_v to_o carry_v on_o the_o war_n and_o that_o trade_n require_v ten_o time_n more_o money_n to_o carry_v it_o on_o then_o be_v in_o her_o time_n and_o our_o custom-house-book_n will_v manifest_v we_o have_v twelve_o time_n more_o trade_n and_o if_o our_o money_n be_v not_o twelve_o time_n as_o much_o our_o payment_n must_v be_v long_o before_o we_o pay_v one_o the_o other_o and_o that_o be_v sad_a if_o it_o shall_v so_o fall_v out_o that_o we_o have_v not_o plenty_n of_o money_n for_o the_o very_a postage_n of_o our_o letter_n come_v to_o more_o profit_n to_o the_o crown_n than_o all_o her_o custom_n do_v before_o she_o settle_a money_n at_o the_o high_a value_n and_o we_o must_v have_v money_n to_o carry_v on_o our_o trade_n and_o pay_v our_o tax_n and_o how_o can_v the_o great_a part_n of_o our_o silver-money_n be_v spare_v now_o altogether_o except_o a_o speedy_a care_n be_v take_v to_o have_v a_o supply_n of_o new_a to_o fill_v it_o up_o and_o that_o it_o be_v not_o carry_v away_o and_o melt_v down_o for_o if_o it_o shall_v it_o may_v be_v fatal_a to_o the_o poor_a fatal_a to_o the_o trader_n and_o fatal_a in_o the_o want_n of_o it_o to_o pay_v in_o our_o tax_n and_o if_o i_o compute_v aright_o we_o have_v about_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o house_n within_o the_o bill_n of_o mortality_n and_o suppose_v one_o with_o another_o at_o 10_o l._n the_o year_n a_o house_n be_v a_o million_o the_o year_n rent_n and_o suppose_v all_o manner_n of_o charge_n whatever_o spend_v within_o the_o say_a bill_n be_v nine_o time_n as_o much_o be_v nine_o million_o more_o that_o be_v ten_o million_o the_o year_n expense_n or_o suppose_v there_o be_v a_o million_o of_o people_n and_o they_o spend_v 10_o l._n a_o year_n each_o poor_a and_o rich_a one_o with_o another_o be_v still_o ten_o million_o of_o money_n in_o a_o year_n and_o if_o all_o england_n be_v but_o ten_o time_n as_o many_o people_n and_o spend_v ten_o time_n as_o much_o money_n then_o that_o be_v a_o hundred_o million_o of_o money_n every_o year_n spend_v in_o the_o delicate_a pretty_a island_n of_o england_n and_o then_o if_o we_o have_v but_o ten_o million_o of_o money_n in_o england_n we_o must_v return_v it_o ten_o time_n over_o in_o a_o year_n to_o pay_v our_o bare_a expense_n but_o then_o suppose_v that_o half_o the_o nation_n consist_v of_o trade_n and_o merchandise_n in_o city_n and_o town_n and_o village_n and_o to_o get_v half_o these_o expense_n which_o be_v fifty_o million_o the_o year_n they_o must_v return_v this_o one_o with_o another_o at_o least_o six_o time_n the_o year_n to_o get_v these_o expense_n and_o that_o be_v three_o hundred_o million_o return_n and_o the_o ten_o million_o of_o money_n must_v be_v return_v thirty_o time_n over_o to_o get_v their_o expense_n and_o five_o time_n over_o to_o get_v the_o other_o half_a of_o the_o nation_n expense_n and_o the_o say_v ten_o million_o of_o money_n must_v be_v pay_v into_o the_o exchequer_n likewise_o for_o tax_n at_o lest_o once_o in_o two_o year_n and_o it_o may_v be_v there_o it_o lie_v sometime_o several_a week_n or_o month_n and_o therefore_o i_o be_o certain_a that_o it_o will_v be_v the_o interest_n of_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n and_o nation_n to_o have_v great_a plenty_n of_o money_n and_o a_o great_a ruin_n if_o we_o have_v not_o and_o though_o it_o may_v be_v some_o will_v say_v the_o rise_z of_o good_n will_v follow_v the_o rise_n of_o money_n it_o be_v a_o pretence_n for_o since_o queen_n elizabeth_n day_n all_o sort_n of_o good_n and_o all_o sort_n of_o provision_n and_o servant_n and_o labourer_n wage_n be_v rise_v near_o three_o time_n dear_a though_o money_n have_v be_v at_o the_o same_o for_o as_o the_o nation_n increase_v in_o inhabitant_n and_o trade_n and_o riches_n yet_o corn_n food_n and_o clothes_n will_v rise_v and_o wage_n must_v rise_v and_o therefore_o they_o that_o argue_v to_o have_v our_o money_n carry_v away_o argue_v aright_o to_o have_v our_o good_n fall_v for_o if_o our_o money_n be_v go_v away_o our_o good_n will_v be_v drug_n and_o must_v fall_v and_o if_o we_o be_v poor_a we_o may_v have_v good_n cheap_a and_o therefore_o in_o other_o country_n where_o they_o have_v little_a money_n they_o live_v cheap_a but_o i_o never_o know_v any_o man_n in_o my_o life_n go_v there_o to_o live_v to_o get_v money_n where_o thing_n be_v so_o cheap_a and_o now_o i_o think_v of_o our_o guinea_n rise_v it_o have_v be_v one_o of_o the_o great_a advantage_n the_o nation_n have_v have_v in_o trade_n this_o war_n that_o i_o do_v know_v of_o for_o
