and_o preserve_v for_o time_n to_o come_v they_o must_v be_v pay_v on_o shore_n and_o it_o must_v be_v so_o contrive_v as_o near_o as_o possible_a that_o every_o man_n may_v be_v pay_v off_o once_o in_o a_o year_n or_o tw●_n at_o far_a and_o have_v then_o a_o little_a security_n against_o the_o press_n that_o they_o may_v recruit_v their_o health_n and_o then_o they_o will_v be_v encourage_v to_o come_v into_o the_o service_n again_o and_o their_o friend_n glad_a to_o send_v they_o and_o without_o that_o i_o be_o afraid_a other_o encouragement_n will_v be_v but_o like_o a_o few_o oat_n show_v a_o horse_n to_o tempt_v he_o to_o come_v and_o take_v up_o a_o pack_n who_o remember_v the_o last_o time_n he_o can_v never_o get_v it_o off_o before_o he_o fall_v sick_a and_o be_v throw_v in_o the_o hedge_n and_o last_o although_o he_o see_v a_o great_a part_n of_o his_o companion_n dye_v under_o their_o burden_n none_o will_v be_v so_o merciful_a to_o they_o as_o to_o give_v they_o a_o fortnight_n rest_n in_o several_a year_n this_o may_v seem_v a_o foolish_a comparison_n but_o child_n and_o fool_n be_v say_v to_o tell_v truth_n and_o so_o much_o to_o that_o if_o there_o be_v no_o certain_a time_n when_o seaman_n shall_v be_v discharge_v i_o fear_v there_o will_v be_v no_o certainty_n of_o their_o come_n in_o for_o time_n to_o come_v free_o and_o so_o much_o to_o that_o 3_o if_o his_o majesty_n and_o the_o two_o most_o honourable_a house_n will_v advance_v all_o able_a seamen_n pay_v four_o or_o five_o shilling_n the_o month_n this_o may_v be_v the_o way_n to_o encourage_v the_o seaman_n of_o england_n to_o serve_v more_o cheerful_o and_o free_o four_o all_o ordinary_a seamen_n pay_n but_o two_o shilling_n the_o month_n that_o they_o may_v all_o strive_v to_o be_v able_a seaman_n 5th_o that_o all_o apprentice_n may_v be_v encourage_v when_o they_o be_v honest_a and_o punish_v when_o they_o be_v not_o that_o be_v their_o master_n to_o have_v twelve_o shilling_n the_o month_n and_o they_o themselves_o the_o remainder_n that_o be_v if_o they_o be_v such_o as_o deserve_v but_o eighteen_o shilling_n the_o month_n to_o have_v four_o shilling_n themselves_o to_o buy_v they_o clothes_n if_o man_n to_o be_v pay_v nine_o shilling_n and_o if_o a_o able_a seaman_n to_o be_v pay_v the_o remainder_n of_o the_o pay_n as_o able_a seaman_n be_v and_o this_o i_o propose_v because_o i_o have_v know_v several_a apprentice_n shift_v and_o run_v to_o and_o fro_o from_o ship_n have_v beggare_v their_o master_n and_o dame_n and_o the_o king_n lose_v their_o service_n at_o last_o it_o may_v be_v as_o their_o master_n and_o dame_n do_v their_o pay_n but_o if_o they_o have_v encouragement_n themselves_o it_o may_v be_v they_o will_v stay_v in_o their_o ship_n and_o if_o they_o do_v not_o to_o be_v liable_a to_o serve_v their_o time_n over_o again_o or_o pay_v for_o it_o and_o also_o by_o this_o mean_v it_o will_v be_v certain_a who_o shall_v have_v their_o pay_n and_o that_o have_v not_o be_v this_o war_n sometime_o the_o prentice_n shall_v have_v all_o and_o the_o master_n none_o and_o sometime_o their_o master_n all_o and_o the_o prentice_n may_v starve_v for_o bread_n or_o clothes_n their_o master_n it_o may_v be_v some_o of_o they_o take_v little_a care_n where_o they_o shall_v be_v provide_v for_o when_o sick_a and_o almost_o naked_a 6._o see_v all_o seaman_n to_o be_v encourage_v to_o be_v able_a seaman_n and_o midship-man_n and_o officer_n as_o they_o be_v capable_a of_o and_o not_o let_v any_o captain_n be_v boy_n receive_v midship-men_n pay_n for_o their_o master_n and_o the_o brave_a courageous_a loyal_a seaman_n that_o serve_v indeed_o for_o midship-man_n to_o be_v pay_v but_o as_o able_a or_o to_o be_v split_v their_o pay_n one_o midship-man_n pay_n between_o two_o man_n and_o this_o will_v encourage_v all_o seaman_n that_o have_v brain_n and_o art_n to_o strive_v for_o preferment_n and_o not_o have_v lieutenant_n put_v over_o they_o that_o never_o see_v a_o gun_n fire_v in_o anger_n it_o may_v be_v this_o war._n 7._o as_o few_o seaman_n as_o possible_a to_o be_v turn_v from_o ship_n to_o

in_o course_n and_o that_o within_o three_o month_n at_o far_a after_o the_o turn_n over_o and_o none_o to_o buy_v any_o of_o they_o at_o above_z 3_o s_z at_o most_o in_o the_o pound_n profit_n on_o

above_o 4_o s_o or_o at_o most_o 5_o s_o in_o the_o pound_n profit_n may_v pay_v to_o the_o party_n grieve_v and_o oppress_v 2_o s_o back_o for_o every_o shilling_n more_o profit_n and_o that_o will_v not_o be_v so_o great_a a_o punishment_n as_o some_o may_v imagine_v for_o if_o they_o extort_a 10_o s_o profit_n and_o five_o be_v for_o time_n pass_v wink_v at_o the_o other_o five_o pay_v back_o double_a be_v but_o 10_o s_o so_o that_o the_o poor_a extort_a ruin_a seaman_n will_v have_v but_o 20_o s_o at_o last_o for_o 20_o s_o and_o if_o any_o say_v there_o be_v no_o law_n against_o these_o extortion_v villain_n for_o time_n past_a to_o that_o i_o answer_v i_o do_v suppose_v unless_o the_o extortioner_n be_v worse_o than_o heathen_n there_o be_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n and_o of_o christ_n to_o do_v as_o they_o will_v be_v do_v unto_o and_o second_o unless_o those_o extortioner_n be_v worse_o than_o turk_n i_o have_v be_v often_o inform_v that_o the_o turk_n will_v severe_o correct_v a_o jew_n if_o he_o take_v more_o than_o a_o moderate_a profit_n of_o a_o christian_a they_o will_v beat_v the_o jew_n severe_o and_o i_o do_v suppose_v that_o such_o dreadful_a curse_a wretched_a extortioner_n as_o have_v buy_v some_o seman_n pay_n at_o near_o a_o quarter_n of_o the_o value_n be_v never_o hear_v of_o among_o turk_n or_o indian_n or_o the_o most_o savage_a and_o barbarous_a nation_n in_o the_o world_n and_o those_o very_a seaman_n who_o be_v so_o ruin_v to_o lose_v their_o health_n and_o life_n in_o the_o defence_n of_o that_o very_a nation_n where_o these_o extortioner_n must_v live_v or_o be_v slave_n themselves_o and_o lose_v all_o at_o last_o and_o i_o consider_v that_o if_o david_n will_v not_o drink_v of_o the_o water_n of_o bethlehem_n when_o the_o three_o mighty_a man_n have_v venture_v their_o life_n to_o fetch_v it_o but_o say_v god_n forbid_v be_v it_o not_o their_o blood_n then_o how_o can_v these_o nation_n expect_v to_o thrive_v that_o put_v by_o the_o poor_a miserable_a seman_n widow_n from_o their_o pay_n that_o be_v earn_v not_o only_o with_o the_o peril_n of_o their_o husband_n life_n but_o even_o fall_v sick_a and_o actual_o die_v on_o shore_n by_o reason_n thereof_o or_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o very_o like_a injustice_n or_o unmercifulness_n and_o cruelty_n to_o cause_v so_o great_a multitude_n to_o be_v deprive_v of_o their_o pay_n who_o have_v not_o be_v one_o day_n or_o month_n hardly_o out_o of_o the_o service_n for_o several_a year_n as_o by_o the_o ship_n be_v book_n will_v appear_v except_o by_o sickness_n or_o death_n that_o can_v be_v prove_v and_o if_o those_o who_o have_v help_v to_o throw_v more_o misery_n on_o they_o be_v the_o only_a man_n that_o be_v in_o this_o nation_n to_o relieve_v they_o the_o lord_n for_o chrift_n sake_n preserve_v all_o landman_n from_o fall_v into_o such_o distress_n for_o if_o christ_n shall_v say_v to_o these_o nation_n in_o judgement_n the_o same_o measure_n you_o meet_v shall_v be_v measure_v to_o you_o again_o it_o will_v be_v sad_a but_o what_o he_o will_v do_v be_v know_v only_o to_o himself_o and_o what_o his_o good_a will_n and_o pleasure_n be_v to_o stir_v i_o up_o to_o write_v this_o he_o only_o know_v and_o 8thly_a therefore_o there_o ought_v to_o be_v care_n take_v what_o seaman_n must_v do_v for_o time_n to_o come_v if_o they_o be_v set_v sick_a on_o shore_n and_o the_o ship_n go_v away_o before_o they_o be_v well_o to_o secure_v their_o pay_n for_o i_o will_v appeal_v to_o all_o mankind_n that_o have_v grace_n or_o reason_n
