omit_v to_o speak_v of_o many_o other_o staple_n commodity_n of_o this_o our_o kingdom_n though_o many_o rich_a and_o profitable_a because_o i_o be_o intend_v to_o treat_v principal_o about_o the_o subject_a of_o wool_n and_o the_o manufacture_n thereof_o with_o the_o dependency_n thereupon_o now_o that_o such_o advantage_n as_o may_v accrue_v to_o the_o kingdom_n be_v not_o lay_v hold_v on_o and_o the_o commodity_n improoved_a to_o what_o it_o may_v be_v be_v too_o too_o evident_a to_o all_o man_n that_o have_v improoved_a wool_n not_o improoved_a any_o feel_n of_o the_o case_n or_o that_o do_v make_v any_o inspection_n into_o it_o which_o may_v also_o be_v sufficient_o confirm_v to_o all_o other_o by_o the_o sad_a complaint_n and_o frequent_a moan_n that_o be_v daily_o make_v concern_v the_o miserable_a decay_n of_o trade_n to_o the_o great_a loss_n of_o many_o particular_a man_n and_o to_o the_o king_n and_o nation_n in_o general_n and_o principal_o in_o the_o trade_n of_o clothing_n but_o if_o the_o wool_n of_o england_n and_o ireland_n be_v improoved_a to_o the_o best_a advantage_n and_o secure_v from_o exportation_n to_o foreigner_n doubtless_o england_n will_v be_v the_o general_n market_n for_o the_o whole_a universe_n for_o matter_n of_o clothing_n and_o what_o will_v soon_o be_v the_o riches_n greatness_n and_o splendour_n thereof_o by_o the_o almighty_n blessing_n be_v not_o a_o thing_n very_o difficult_a to_o be_v imagine_v by_o any_o sober_a judicious_a person_n merchant_n or_o traveller_n and_o that_o no_o nation_n have_v such_o good_a wool_n for_o the_o general_a english_a no_o wool_n so_o good_a as_o english_a trade_n of_o clothing_n be_v evident_a else_o what_o make_v so_o many_o foreigner_n of_o other_o nation_n so_o greedy_a of_o our_o english_a wool_n if_o they_o have_v as_o good_a or_o near_o as_o good_a of_o their_o own_o and_o how_o high_o be_v it_o former_o esteem_v by_o the_o duke_n of_o burgundy_n and_o what_o benefit_n and_o advantage_n do_v that_o people_n under_o his_o government_n make_v of_o it_o when_o they_o pay_v but_o sixpence_n the_o pound_n for_o our_o english_a wool_n they_o return_v it_o to_o we_o in_o cloth_n at_o ten_o shilling_n the_o yard_n by_o which_o may_v very_o easy_o be_v compute_v what_o profit_n do_v redound_v to_o that_o people_n in_o the_o work_n up_o the_o wool_n which_o thing_n occasion_v many_o english_a family_n to_o transport_v themselves_o into_o those_o part_n for_o their_o profitable_a livelihood_n and_o subsistence_n but_o after_o the_o victorious_a conquest_n make_v by_o edward_n the_o england_n clothing_n set_v up_o in_o england_n three_o of_o famous_a memory_n he_o cause_v to_o be_v order_v and_o set_v up_o the_o manufacture_n of_o wool_n in_o this_o kingdom_n to_o the_o great_a increase_n of_o the_o riches_n of_o his_o own_o people_n the_o memory_n of_o who_o for_o his_o provident_a care_n for_o the_o welfare_n of_o his_o people_n be_v worthy_a to_o be_v perpetuate_v to_o all_o succeed_a generation_n and_o what_o now_o a_o day_n make_v holland_n and_o france_n so_o covetous_a of_o our_o wool_n and_o what_o large_a quantity_n by_o sinister_a wool_n foreigner_n do_v covet_v our_o wool_n mean_n do_v they_o procure_v to_o serve_v themselves_o and_o their_o country_n and_o what_o riches_n do_v they_o acquire_v to_o themselves_o thereby_o may_v in_o some_o measure_n be_v guess_v at_o for_o by_o have_v our_o good_a english_a wool_n they_o can_v mix_v their_o own_o course_n wool_n with_o it_o and_o so_o make_v good_a cloth_n or_o stuff_v which_o

very_o good_a work_n and_o send_v to_o other_o part_n of_o the_o world_n their_o drugget_n etc._n etc._n and_o by_o have_v our_o good_a english_a wool_n they_o can_v spend_v two_o or_o three_o pack_n of_o their_o own_o wool_n mix_v it_o with_o we_o we_o much_o french_a wool_n wrought_v up_o by_o mix_v with_o we_o by_o which_o mean_n they_o make_v their_o cloth_n and_o stuff_v pass_v very_o
