of_o very_a great_a difficulty_n so_o to_o do_v it_o as_o that_o the_o subject_n in_o general_a of_o late_a year_n strange_o oppress_v may_v not_o again_o sink_v under_o that_o burden_n which_o may_v

both_o by_o the_o dutch_a and_o french_a you_o may_v be_v sure_a to_o see_v in_o a_o very_a short_a space_n all_o the_o land_n in_o a_o general_a indigency_n and_o beggary_n for_o remedy_v whereof_o

sure_a to_o have_v all_o that_o which_o the_o farmer_n and_o some_o other_o have_v for_o many_o year_n past_a share_v and_o take_v from_o his_o majesty_n by_o a_o great_a deal_n of_o artifice_n and_o to_o the_o great_a damage_n of_o the_o universal_a trade_n of_o the_o kingdom_n the_o whole_a proceed_n whereof_o during_o these_o forty_o year_n and_o upward_o no_o man_n know_v so_o well_o as_o

content_n of_o master_n turnours_n secret_n be_v as_o follow_v 1._o a_o evident_a way_n how_o to_o advance_v the_o trade_n of_o the_o kingdom_n 2._o a_o infallible_a way_n how_o to_o preserve_v the_o king_n custom_n from_o steal_v which_o shall_v it_o be_v put_v in_o practice_n and_o present_o to_o vindicate_v the_o man_n or_o the_o party_n from_o whence_o it_o be_v steal_v 3._o how_o to_o vent_v all_o the_o native_a commodity_n of_o this_o kingdom_n be_v they_o far_o more_o than_o now_o they_o be_v at_o reasonable_a and_o gain_v rate_n both_o to_o the_o gentleman_n merchant_z and_o country_n

suffice_v the_o kingdom_n and_o to_o vent_v and_o transport_v the_o rest_n with_o advantage_n how_o to_o supply_v his_o majesty_n within_o ten_o day_n warning_n with_o the_o value_n of_o his_o whole_a

of_o london_n the_o great_a mart_n and_o empory_n of_o the_o world_n how_o to_o manage_v the_o fish_n business_n with_o ease_n and_o to_o the_o incredible_a enrich_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o

dispute_v for_o furtherance_n whereof_o a_o principal_a consideration_n will_v be_v how_o to_o settle_v a_o commission_n for_o trade_n by_o the_o authority_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o parliament_n with_o correspondency_n to_o the_o commissioner_n for_o manage_v the_o king_n revenue_n wherein_o it_o be_v further_a to_o be_v consider_v what_o the_o house_n shall_v think_v fit_a to_o leave_v on_o his_o majesty_n of_o the_o present_a imposition_n lest_o by_o take_v away_o too_o much_o before_o it_o be_v consult_v by_o the_o commissioner_n for_o trade_n when_o and_o where_o to_o take_v it_o the_o king_n revenue_n may_v be_v make_v of_o little_a consideration_n especial_o when_o you_o shall_v look_v back_o to_o the_o many_o alienation_n and_o diminution_n of_o the_o crown_n land_n and_o the_o house_n thereof_o may_v be_v deprive_v of_o do_v that_o service_n which_o it_o be_v presume_v they_o mean_v to_o do_v and_o in_o that_o bountiful_a measure_n as_o that_o it_o may_v remain_v

of_o the_o kingdom_n you_o can_v not_o well_o as_o yet_o and_o at_o present_a take_v away_o much_o but_o rather_o leave_v it_o to_o be_v take_v away_o by_o the_o commissioner_n for_o trade_n which_o shall_v be_v most_o of_o they_o of_o both_o house_n with_o some_o merchant_n whereby_o as_o occasion_n shall_v present_v itself_o
