their_o body_n by_o degree_n if_o not_o present_o as_o several_a have_v be_v but_o by_o degree_n i_o have_v know_v many_o both_o man_n and_o woman_n have_v shorten_v their_o life_n many_o year_n by_o drink_v so_o much_o of_o such_o fiery_a drink_n to_o dry_v up_o their_o very_a liver_n or_o lung_n and_o neither_o fear_n of_o death_n or_o any_o wisdom_n sense_n or_o reason_n can_v take_v off_o mankind_n from_o what_o their_o lust_n and_o appetite_n be_v set_v upon_o and_o if_o there_o be_v a_o open_a trade_n to_o france_n if_o we_o shall_v but_o send_v a_o million_o a_o year_n of_o our_o large_a money_n for_o their_o brandy_n and_o wine_n it_o will_v be_v the_o way_n to_o beggar_n we_o in_o a_o very_a few_o year_n therefore_o if_o we_o must_v have_v so_o much_o brandy_n in_o england_n i_o will_v humble_o propose_v that_o there_o may_v be_v a_o law_n make_v to_o have_v our_o hedge_n row_v in_o every_o field_n by_o act_n of_o parliament_n oblige_v in_o seven_o or_o eight_o year_n time_n to_o have_v a_o appletree_n in_o every_o thirty_o foot_n of_o hedge_n and_o there_o may_v be_v several_a million_o of_o appletree_n plant_v in_o eight_o year_n time_n the_o kernel_n of_o appel_n now_o will_v the_o first_o two_o or_o three_o year_n produce_v nursery_n of_o tree_n enough_o and_o they_o in_o about_o ten_o or_o twelve_o year_n may_v come_v to_o bear_v fruit_n and_o be_v as_o i_o say_v plant_v in_o the_o hedg-row_n need_v not_o take_v up_o a_o acre_n of_o land_n for_o 40_o million_o of_o tree_n and_o if_o the_o tree_n come_v to_o bear_v will_v preserve_v our_o corn_n from_o be_v burn_v up_o i_o mean_v into_o brandy_n and_o it_o be_v our_o english_a cider_n will_v make_v almost_o as_o good_a brandy_n as_o the_o french_a and_o if_o this_o plantation_n be_v but_o establish_v it_o will_v pay_v its_o own_o charge_n of_o the_o plant_v ten_o time_n over_o quick_o and_o if_o it_o be_v once_o take_v up_o it_o will_v never_o be_v lay_v down_o again_o for_o apple_n be_v for_o meat_n and_o drink_n to_o several_a poor_a family_n in_o the_o country_n and_o at_o last_o the_o very_a wood_n of_o the_o tree_n if_o forty_o year_n old_a will_v be_v worth_a for_o fire_v when_o they_o have_v do_v bear_v fruit_n five_o time_n the_o charge_n of_o plant_v and_o as_o i_o say_v we_o need_v not_o lose_v a_o acre_n of_o land_n and_o if_o any_o will_v propose_v the_o plant_v of_o oak_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n one_o in_o every_o 30_o foot_n of_o hedge-row_n acorn_n be_v cheap_a enough_o and_o if_o every_o twenty_o foot_n have_v a_o appletree_n and_o every_o twenty_o

in_o my_o bed_n of_o the_o last_o age_n and_o this_o i_o think_v that_o when_o as_o king_n charles_n ii_o come_v home_n again_o to_o england_n in_o 1660._o there_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o strange_a race_n begin_v and_o continue_v many_o year_n will_v god_n it_o be_v at_o a_o end_n and_o this_o be_v the_o race_n methinks_v the_o devil_n run_v and_o the_o jesuit_n run_v and_o the_o drunken_a lewd_a scandalous_a priest_n begin_v to_o run_v and_o their_o design_n be_v all_o to_o debauch_v and_o profane_v and_o poison_v these_o nation_n with_o lewdness_n for_o two_o design_n the_o jesuit_n to_o bring_v the_o nation_n to_o popery_n when_o they_o have_v debauch_v away_o their_o religion_n and_o the_o drunken_a priest_n to_o keep_v their_o preferment_n and_o live_n and_o looseness_n also_o without_o fear_n or_o danger_n of_o any_o reformation_n and_o methinks_v they_o go_v a_o great_a way_n and_o have_v two_o idol_n a_o elder_a brother_n and_o a_o young_a the_o one_o idol_n for_o lewdness_n and_o prophanenss_n and_o the_o other_o for_o idolatry_n and_o the_o old_a whore_n at_o rome_n but_o the_o first_o idol_n not_o go_v so_o far_o and_o fast_o towards_o rome_n as_o the_o jesuit_n will_v have_v he_o he_o go_v out_o of_o the_o world_n few_o know_v how_o and_o then_o come_v the_o other_o idol_n in_o play_n and_o be_v poor_a soul_n run_v so_o fast_o that_o be_v tumble_v down_o and_o break_v his_o head_n and_o in_o get_v up_o again_o have_v only_o wit_n enough_o leave_v and_o courage_n enough_o to_o run_v away_o and_o happy_a be_v it_o for_o the_o nation_n he_o have_v not_o more_o wit_n or_o courage_n for_o it_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v he_o will_v have_v be_v a_o sad_a plague_n to_o the_o nation_n if_o he_o have_v stay_v but_o by_o his_o run_v the_o jesuit_n lose_v the_o rarity_n of_o their_o show_n that_o they_o intend_v to_o act_v if_o they_o have_v not_o be_v kick_v off_o from_o the_o stage_n and_o now_o it_o may_v be_v some_o will_v ask_v if_o this_o race_n be_v at_o a_o end_n to_o that_o i_o will_v answer_v i_o fear_v there_o be_v too_o much_o of_o it_o under_o hand_n and_o if_o any_o shall_v ask_v i_o who_o the_o devil_n do_v pick_v up_o of_o late_a
