be_v at_o first_o view_n especial_o among_o the_o republican_n who_o can_v endure_v to_o hear_v of_o part_v with_o money_n to_o the_o king_n may_v look_v like_o a_o pretty_a court-project_n and_o paradox_n but_o as_o i_o be_o no_o courtier_n nor_o have_v the_o remote_a dependency_n upon_o it_o so_o i_o doubt_v not_o but_o both_o by_o reason_n and_o experience_n so_o to_o support_v my_o assertion_n as_o to_o make_v it_o evident_a that_o i_o be_o a_o true_a countryman_n not_o according_a to_o the_o factious_a distinction_n of_o a_o countryman_n as_o opposite_a to_o a_o courtier_n but_o such_o a_o countryman_n as_o will_v by_o support_v the_o honour_n safety_n and_o dignity_n of_o the_o crown_n and_o court_n also_o advance_v and_o improve_v the_o interest_n of_o the_o country_n for_o let_v the_o commonwealthsman_n say_v what_o they_o will_v the_o court_n and_o the_o country_n be_v not_o two_o separate_a interest_n and_o it_o will_v never_o be_v find_v that_o a_o poor_a exchequer_n make_v a_o rich_a country_n and_o therefore_o first_o in_o point_n of_o reason_n in_o fact_n this_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o the_o more_o money_n the_o king_n have_v the_o more_o money_n circulate_v through_o the_o whole_a nation_n and_o that_o except_o as_o before_o what_o london_n and_o the_o good_a town_n of_o england_n expend_v in_o provision_n for_o the_o mouth_n the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o money_n that_o run_v through_o the_o kingdom_n be_v what_o arise_v from_o the_o branch_n of_o the_o king_n revenue_n for_o the_o king_n money_n be_v real_o current_a coin_n in_o all_o sense_n it_o do_v not_o rust_n in_o the_o exchequer_n it_o do_v not_o lie_v there_o for_o purchase_n mortgage_n or_o other_o bargain_n and_o trade_n but_o do_v continual_o issue_v out_o again_o to_o defray_v die_v constant_a charge_n and_o expense_n of_o the_o government_n and_o be_v distribute_v into_o a_o multitude_n of_o hand_n who_o have_v their_o dependence_n upon_o the_o crown_n and_o these_o again_o issue_v it_o out_o to_o supply_v their_o own_o necessity_n to_o the_o trade_a part_n of_o the_o kingdom_n for_o the_o native_a commodity_n of_o the_o nation_n so_o that_o it_o run_v in_o a_o continual_a circle_n now_o the_o revenue_n manifest_o fall_v short_a of_o the_o expense_n of_o the_o government_n insomuch_o that_o his_o majesty_n have_v not_o only_o be_v force_v to_o retrench_v his_o household_n expense_n which_o occasion_v a_o great_a consumption_n of_o our_o native_a production_n and_o by_o consequence_n the_o circulation_n of_o so_o much_o money_n into_o the_o country_n but_o have_v notwithstanding_o be_v involve_v in_o a_o very_a great_a debt_n the_o supply_v the_o crown_n with_o such_o aid_n as_o may_v enable_v the_o king_n to_o set_v up_o his_o royal_a table_n and_o discharge_v his_o debt_n and_o not_o be_v force_v to_o involve_v himself_o in_o new_a one_o as_o it_o will_v be_v high_o honourable_a for_o the_o king_n and_o nation_n so_o it_o will_v be_v no_o more_o in_o effect_n but_o the_o kingdom_n give_v their_o money_n with_o one_o hand_n to_o receive_v it_o again_o with_o the_o other_o and_o the_o put_v off_o so_o much_o more_o money_n to_o circulation_n throughout_o the_o nation_n and_o this_o again_o will_v likewise_o be_v abundant_o recompense_v both_o in_o our_o foreign_a traffic_n and_o domestic_a trade_n as_o i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o make_v appear_v in_o its_o due_a place_n but_o second_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o be_v most_o evident_a as_o from_o reason_n so_o from_o experience_n which_o in_o my_o opinion_n be_v a_o argument_n of_o the_o great_a force_n and_o strength_n for_o many_o time_n reason_n may_v be_v so_o bring_v to_o oppose_v reason_n and_o the_o combat_n of_o argument_n may_v appear_v so_o equal_a as_o to_o leave_v the_o judgement_n in_o suspense_n to_o which_o party_n it_o shall_v incline_v to_o yield_v the_o laurel_n of_o truth_n and_o victory_n but_o though_o one_o can_v possible_o see_v into_o every_o minute_n circumstance_n and_o the_o little_a concatenation_n of_o cause_n and_o effect_n especial_o where_o the_o number_n of_o they_o render_v it_o intricate_a so_o as_o to_o be_v able_a to_o penetrate_v into_o the_o abstruse_a and_o entangle_a reason_n of_o thing_n which_o like_o a_o ruffle_a skein_n of_o silk_n may_v be_v difficult_a to_o be_v wind_v up_o to_o a_o bottom_n yet_o if_o constant_a experience_n show_v that_o thus_o it_o have_v always_o be_v in_o such_o and_o such_o case_n than_o it_o be_v a_o very_a sound_a argument_n that_o thus_o it_o will_v be_v again_o and_o that_o certain_o there_o be_v a_o true_a reason_n why_o it_o shall_v be_v so_o though_o possible_o it_o be_v too_o intricate_a to_o be_v draw_v into_o a_o demonstration_n though_o for_o my_o own_o particular_a this_o point_n of_o the_o circulation_n of_o money_n before_o discourse_v of_o seem_v so_o forcible_a as_o to_o be_v undeniable_o the_o true_a foundation_n of_o the_o follow_a experience_n in_o matter_n of_o fact_n we_o will_v not_o travel_v out_o of_o our_o kenn_n in_o this_o particular_a though_o we_o may_v run_v as_o high_a as_o queen_n elizabeth_n golden_a reign_n which_o we_o have_v be_v tell_v be_v as_o plentiful_a in_o money_n as_o it_o be_v in_o glory_n the_o true_a reason_n whereof_o be_v that_o she_o be_v never_o deny_v any_o money_n by_o

to_o come_v near_a home_n it_o be_v in_o the_o mouth_n of_o the_o countryman_n and_o citizen_n and_o have_v be_v main_o improve_v and_o insist_v upon_o by_o the_o faction_n to_o beget_v in_o they_o

than_o during_o the_o time_n of_o the_o late_a usurpation_n the_o fact_n be_v plain_a though_o the_o reason_n be_v not_o so_o to_o the_o many_o but_o this_o will_v unriddle_v the_o matter_n for_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o the_o trade_n of_o the_o nation_n be_v nothing_o so_o considerable_a then_o as_o now_o and_o the_o loss_n at_o sea_n be_v extraordinary_a it_o be_v compute_v that_o the_o nation_n lose_v during_o the_o war_n with_o spain_n above_o 300_o sail_n of_o ship_n beside_o their_o good_n but_o the_o true_a reason_n be_v this_o those_o usurper_n raise_v what_o tax_n they_o

which_o constant_o circulate_v through_o the_o whole_a nation_n by_o reason_n whereof_o money_n be_v make_v plentiful_a and_o all_o commodity_n bear_v a_o considerable_a rate_n land_n let_v at_o

that_o if_o the_o most_o certain_a and_o expeditious_a way_n to_o ruin_n and_o destroy_v it_o be_v to_o withdraw_v the_o necessary_a supply_n then_o on_o the_o contrary_a the_o most_o certain_a way_n to_o preserve_v it_o be_v for_o the_o nation_n generous_o and_o in_o a_o due_a proportion_n to_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o government_n to_o supply_v the_o crown_n and_o recruit_v the_o exchequer_n and_o since_o it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o they_o be_v the_o mortal_a enemy_n of_o the_o kingdom_n the_o conspirator_n in_o this_o late_a hellish_a plot_n who_o by_o their_o counsel_n and_o

scarcity_n of_o money_n in_o the_o country_n be_v the_o not_o grant_v supply_n of_o money_n to_o the_o crown_n and_o how_o much_o soever_o a_o paradox_n this_o may_v at_o first_o view_n appear_v to_o

i_o first_o then_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o the_o present_a scarcity_n of_o money_n in_o the_o country_n do_v not_o arise_v from_o the_o real_a decrease_n of_o coin_n in_o specie_fw-la and_o on_o the_o contrary_a that_o there_o never_o be_v great_a plenty_n of_o coin_n it_o appear_v most_o evident_o from_o the_o notable_a fall_n of_o interest_n for_o the_o law_n allow_v the_o take_n of_o

many_o other_o project_n as_o the_o ensure_a building_n and_o the_o lumbr_a design_n that_o there_o be_v a_o vast_a bank_n of_o money_n lie_v unemployed_a and_o yet_o the_o nation_n never_o have_v a_o great_a trade_n to_o employ_v money_n never_o more_o ship_v never_o more_o merchant_n as_o will_v easy_o appear_v by_o compare_v the_o customhouse_n entry_n both_o for_o importation_n and_o

not_o only_o by_o say_v money_n be_v scarce_o but_o they_o must_v show_v in_o fact_n by_o assign_v how_o where_o and_o when_o the_o money_n of_o the_o nation_n be_v sink_v and_o draw_v off_o in_o

though_o draw_v into_o few_o hand_n which_o i_o take_v to_o be_v our_o present_a case_n nay_o i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o the_o act_n for_o free_a mintage_n of_o money_n which_o be_v so_o

water_n by_o that_o mill_n than_o the_o miller_n know_v of_o in_o the_o second_o place_n therefore_o i_o take_v it_o for_o grant_v that_o the_o want_n of_o due_a circulation_n of_o the_o money_n that_o be_v in_o the_o nation_n be_v the_o true_a reason_n of_o the_o present_a scarcity_n of_o mony_n there_o be_v more_o money_n in_o the_o nation_n than_o the_o trade_n of_o the_o nation_n can_v

of_o the_o country_n to_o these_o little_a bank_n for_o the_o same_o purpose_n still_o drain_v the_o country_n and_o keep_v it_o bare_a for_o in_o effect_n there_o be_v little_o more_o money_n circulate_v in_o the_o inland_a county_n of_o england_n than_o london_n and_o the_o other_o good_a town_n afford_v they_o for_o provision_n for_o the_o mouth_n the_o rest_n of_o the_o inland_a trade_n be_v upon_o the_o matter_n but_o barter_n and_o exchange_v of_o commodity_n for_o commodity_n each_o country_n mutual_o supply_v themselves_o in_o what_o they_o want_v from_o the_o other_o so_o that_o here_o be_v still_o part_n of_o the_o run_v cash_n of_o the_o country_n march_v up_o into_o these_o little_a petty-bag_n office_n but_o vestigia_fw-la pauca_fw-la retrorsum_fw-la no_o circulation_n from_o thence_o again_o three_o therefore_o i_o take_v it_o also_o for_o grant_v that_o whatsoever_o will_v be_v find_v to_o give_v money_n a_o great_a circulation_n will_v make_v it_o more_o plentiful_a in_o the_o nation_n and_o the_o more_o money_n do_v circulate_a the_o more_o it_o will_v for_o the_o country_n be_v not_o want_v in_o commodity_n but_o there_o be_v a_o want_n of_o money_n to_o advance_v the_o rate_n of_o they_o and_o therefore_o the_o more_o plentiful_a money_n be_v the_o better_a price_n every_o thing_n give_v for_o all_o market_n rise_v or_o fall_v in_o proportion_n to_o the_o number_n of_o buyer_n and_o chapman_n be_v few_o or_o many_o in_o proportion_n to_o the_o plenty_n of_o money_n which_o they_o have_v and_o by_o consequence_n therefore_o till_o more_o money_n do_v circulate_a the_o countryman_n will_v find_v little_a of_o it_o and_o but_o indifferent_a market_n for_o his_o commodity_n and_o till_o market_n be_v better_a rent_n be_v not_o like_a to_o rise_v nor_o these_o little_a banker_n bring_v out_o their_o hoard_v till_o land_n rise_v and_o that_o they_o see_v hope_n of_o advantage_n by_o become_a purchaser_n in_o the_o last_o place_n the_o other_o three_o be_v grant_v viz_o that_o there_o be_v as_o great_a a_o stock_n of_o money_n in_o the_o nation_n as_o ever_o that_o the_o want_n of_o circulation_n make_v it_o scarce_o and_o that_o whatever_o will_v make_v more_o money_n circulate_a will_v make_v it_o more_o plentiful_a i_o say_v these_o be_v grant_v to_o be_v true_a in_o fact_n as_o i_o can_v see_v any_o possibility_n of_o disprove_v any_o one_o of_o they_o the_o only_a way_n to_o make_v more_o money_n circulate_a and_o by_o consequence_n sequence_n to_o make_v it_o more_o plentiful_a be_v by_o a_o liberal_a

execrable_a conspiracy_n so_o miraculous_o discover_v by_o disable_n the_o king_n and_o his_o friend_n and_o deprive_v the_o government_n of_o the_o power_n to_o oppose_v they_o in_o case_n they_o have_v proceed_v to_o actual_a hostility_n and_o insurrection_n and_o now_o according_a to_o my_o promise_n i_o must_v answer_v the_o obvious_a objection_n which_o the_o gentleman_n and_o people_n
