A44078	Humble proposals for the relief, encouragement, security and happiness of the loyal, couragious seamen of England, in their lives and payment, in the service of our Most Gracious King William, and the defence of these nations humbly presented to the two most Honourable Houses, the Lords and Commons of England, in Parliament assembled / by a faithful subject of His Majesty, and servant to the Parliament and nation, and the seamen of England, in order for safety and security of all aforesaid, W. Hodges ; to which is added, a dialogue concerning the art of ticket-buying, in a discourse between Honesty, Poverty, Cruelty and Villany, concerning that mystery of iniquity, and ruin of the loyal seamen.	Hodges, William, Sir, 1645?-1714.	1695 (1695)	Wing H2329; ESTC R2277	51,833	63

my_o part_n i_o say_v according_a to_o the_o money_n raise_v there_o can_v never_o have_v be_v better_a pay_n for_o the_o seaman_n in_o the_o world_n and_o indeed_o i_o will_v not_o have_v the_o seaman_n of_o england_n say_v just_o that_o god_n and_o the_o king_n send_v good_a meat_n but_o the_o devil_n send_v they_o cook_n that_o spoil_v it_o half_o in_o dress_v but_o in_o short_a i_o can_v see_v how_o the_o nation_n in_o the_o general_n can_v answer_v the_o seamen_n be_v leave_v to_o ruin_n for_o first_o as_o i_o say_v it_o be_v against_o grace_n against_o the_o gracious_a law_n of_o christ_n not_o to_o do_v to_o they_o as_o we_o will_v other_o shall_v do_v to_o we_o which_o be_v teach_v the_o child_n in_o their_o catechism_n 2._o it_o be_v against_o the_o gracious_a providence_n of_o god_n to_o these_o nation_n who_o do_v by_o a_o miracle_n send_v over_o our_o gracious_a king_n william_n to_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o secure_v our_o religion_n liberty_n and_o property_n and_o if_o the_o nation_n who_o enjoy_v all_o these_o in_o peace_n at_o home_n shall_v let_v the_o seaman_n be_v ruin_v and_o lose_v all_o together_o and_o their_o life_n into_o the_o bargain_n i_o be_o afraid_a christ_n will_v tell_v we_o another_o word_n in_o our_o ear_n that_o the_o scripture_n shall_v not_o fail_v and_o the_o same_o measure_n man_n mete_v shall_v be_v mete_v to_o they_o again_o and_o so_o much_o to_o their_o be_v manage_v contrary_a to_o grace_n 2._o contrary_n to_o reason_n for_o reason_n tell_v we_o other_o age_n encourage_v their_o seaman_n and_o pay_v they_o on_o shore_n and_o other_o nation_n do_v so_o now_o and_o reason_n may_v tell_v those_o who_o have_v understand_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o pay_v on_o board_n that_o the_o seamen_n family_n and_o relation_n have_v not_o enjoy_v the_o benefit_n of_o little_a more_o than_o half_a their_o pay_n to_o their_o familie_n comfort_n 3._o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o common_a sense_n to_o think_v that_o if_o seaman_n do_v usual_o die_v great_a part_n where_o they_o be_v keep_v 2_o or_o 3_o year_n on_o board_n that_o they_o shall_v have_v any_o policy_n to_o keep_v they_o until_o they_o die_v rather_o than_o to_o pay_v they_o off_o to_o recruit_v their_o health_n and_o life_n and_o indeed_o who_o can_v be_v ever_o imagine_v to_o come_v free_o into_o that_o service_n where_o nothing_o but_o death_n can_v part_v again_o and_o then_o the_o widow_n deny_v their_o money_n ofttimes_o at_o last_o and_o beside_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o seamen_n life_n there_o be_v extraordinary_a charge_n to_o the_o nation_n and_o no_o benefit_n to_o the_o public_a but_o it_o may_v be_v the_o commander_n that_o have_v abuse_v the_o seaman_n all_o the_o war_n can_v not_o get_v more_o and_o will_v want_v a_o ship_n to_o get_v money_n in_o and_o so_o may_v want_v bread_n while_o our_o brave_a commander_n will_v have_v man_n enough_o but_o those_o who_o have_v drive_v away_o the_o seaman_n from_o their_o ship_n and_o can_v have_v a_o supply_n by_o turn_v over_o man_n from_o other_o ship_n these_o may_v be_v at_o a_o loss_n for_o man_n next_o year_n but_o my_o skill_n in_o sea_n affair_n be_v too_o small_a do_v it_o but_o attain_v to_o the_o height_n of_o my_o faithulness_n to_o his_o majesty_n and_o love_n to_o my_o native_a country_n i_o will_v if_o the_o lord_n assist_v i_o with_o life_n and_o health_n write_v such_o a_o history_n of_o the_o knavery_n folly_n cowardice_n treachery_n ruin_n and_o destruction_n of_o this_o war_n in_o the_o sea-affair_n the_o land_n will_v admire_v at_o and_o will_v write_v every_o line_n to_o the_o best_a of_o my_o judgement_n what_o will_v be_v find_v true_a not_o only_o in_o another_o age_n where_o they_o will_v speak_v plain_o how_o his_o majesty_n and_o the_o parliament_n and_o nation_n and_o merchant_n be_v cheat_v and_o abuse_v but_o i_o will_v write_v what_o i_o believe_v will_v be_v find_v true_a in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n where_o all_o cloak_n will_v be_v throw_v off_o and_o than_o it_o will_v be_v know_v that_o god_n do_v not_o send_v mankind_n into_o the_o world_n to_o be_v like_o fish_n the_o great_a one_o to_o devour_v the_o little_a one_o and_o i_o bless_v the_o lord_n who_o keep_v i_o from_o be_v one_o of_o the_o devourer_n of_o the_o age_n for_o i_o have_v have_v a_o opportunity_n with_o ease_n to_o be_v a_o monster_n when_o i_o lay_v out_o a_o hundred_o pound_v a_o week_n or_o two_o in_o seamen_n pay_n if_o i_o have_v buy_v at_o half_a profit_n or_o twelve_o shilling_n in_o the_o pound_n profit_n as_o some_o monster_n do_v i_o shall_v have_v double_v my_o money_n so_o often_o to_o have_v be_v able_a to_o have_v swallow_v up_o 3_o or_o 4_o seamen_n pay_n for_o a_o breakfast_n beside_o what_o i_o have_v for_o dinner_n and_o supper_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v never_o have_v say_v a_o word_n of_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o seaman_n but_o shall_v have_v be_v force_v to_o have_v keep_v all_o counsel_n if_o the_o king_n have_v be_v cheat_v of_o a_o quarter_n of_o his_o money_n and_o the_o seaman_n of_o above_o half_a their_o pay_n but_o i_o presume_v it_o will_v be_v well_o to_o look_v back_o to_o the_o most_o happy_a state_n of_o our_o ship_n of_o war_n when_o we_o do_v most_o effectual_o beat_v our_o enemy_n and_o encourage_v our_o seaman_n and_o see_v if_o we_o do_v not_o find_v the_o neglect_n of_o their_o method_n have_v be_v the_o loss_n of_o half_a our_o seaman_n and_o many_o of_o our_o ship_n and_o second_o whether_o their_o way_n be_v not_o to_o go_v out_o in_o the_o summer_n and_o take_v all_o opportunity_n to_o sight_n and_o destroy_v their_o enemy_n and_o come_v in_o again_o with_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o fleet_n and_o pay_v off_o the_o seaman_n and_o save_v their_o life_n and_o pay_n whether_o if_o this_o have_v be_v do_v the_o seaman_n will_v not_o have_v be_v encourage_v to_o come_v free_o into_o the_o king_n service_n as_o in_o other_o age_n as_o into_o a_o place_n where_o there_o be_v money_n and_o liberty_n and_o release_v and_o not_o perpetual_a bondage_n and_o if_o at_o last_o discharge_v by_o reason_n of_o sickness_n and_o have_v ticket_n sign_v by_o all_o the_o sign_v officer_n for_o the_o same_o to_o be_v deprive_v otherwise_o cheat_v public_o of_o their_o money_n to_o the_o shame_n of_o the_o pay_n and_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o discharge_v and_o whether_o any_o can_v now_o on_o the_o last_o term_n be_v safe_a to_o serve_v their_o king_n and_o country_n and_o it_o may_v be_v question_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o a_o shameful_a thing_n when_o poor_a seaman_n have_v have_v their_o pay_n receive_v by_o false_a power_n they_o shall_v be_v deny_v the_o sight_n of_o the_o ship_n be_v book_n to_o see_v who_o receive_v it_o and_o therefore_o whether_o also_o this_o and_o the_o deny_v they_o otherwise_o the_o knowledge_n of_o their_o case_n be_v not_o a_o unjust_a and_o unreasonable_a thing_n to_o let_v poor_a creature_n be_v cheat_v and_o ruin_v and_o hide_v it_o from_o they_o and_o what_o advantage_n it_o be_v to_o the_o government_n to_o let_v their_o poor_a seaman_n be_v so_o manage_v beside_o the_o king_n be_v be_v at_o extraordinary_a charge_n to_o pay_v they_o so_o far_o from_o london_n and_o the_o city_n deprive_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o take_v their_o money_n as_o in_o other_o age_n wherein_o the_o city_n of_o london_n be_v not_o use_v to_o be_v so_o slight_v neither_o the_o seaman_n so_o ruin_v but_o i_o shall_v presume_v to_o say_v more_o in_o the_o body_n of_o my_o book_n for_o whoever_o please_v to_o read_v it_o at_o their_o leisure_n what_o my_o thought_n be_v and_o if_o the_o honourable_a house_n pardon_v i_o i_o shall_v not_o need_n much_o to_o trouble_v myself_o with_o the_o offence_n any_o other_o may_v take_v at_o it_o for_o i_o write_v for_o good_a and_o not_o to_o please_v but_o to_o hinder_v cheat_v the_o king_n and_o ruine_v the_o seaman_n and_o not_o to_o flatter_v those_o that_o will_v have_v it_o all_o smuggle_v up_o in_o silence_n which_o make_v i_o think_v of_o one_o late_o that_o because_o he_o can_v not_o find_v any_o thing_n false_a in_o my_o book_n have_v this_o supposition_n and_o that_o be_v that_o he_o suppose_v if_o i_o have_v represent_v so_o much_o in_o france_n the_o french_a king_n will_v have_v hang_v i_o now_o to_o that_o be_v only_o a_o supposition_n i_o will_v answer_v it_o with_o other_o supposition_n as_o 1._o i_o must_v have_v be_v a_o fool_n or_o a_o knave_n to_o have_v write_v it_o if_o i_o do_v not_o consult_v before_o i_o write_v it_o whether_o i_o can_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n have_v suffer_v death_n for_o the_o same_o and_o if_o

be_v the_o next_o thing_n they_o will_v be_v for_o and_o seaman_n will_v live_v and_o increase_v as_o in_o other_o age_n of_o the_o world_n they_o use_v to_o do_v in_o time_n of_o war_n although_o thousand_o be_v kill_v and_o of_o the_o most_o fight_a war_n the_o seaman_n ever_o see_v in_o england_n this_o 100_o year_n it_o can_v only_o be_v say_v the_o sword_n or_o gun_n kill_v thousand_o but_o this_o war_n without_o fight_v have_v be_v the_o death_n of_o several_a ten_o thousand_o and_o indeed_o this_o make_v i_o think_v of_o their_o complaint_n to_o i_o some_o year_n past_a that_o they_o can_v not_o fight_v it_o out_o as_o in_o former_a age_n and_o indeed_o in_o my_o mind_n the_o fight_a like_o man_n and_o be_v kill_v a_o hundred_o in_o a_o ship_n be_v nothing_o such_o a_o loss_n to_o themselves_o their_o family_n the_o king_n and_o the_o nation_n as_o be_v keep_v on_o board_n of_o ship_n until_o three_o or_o four_o hundred_o in_o a_o ship_n die_v before_o the_o voyage_n be_v do_v and_o sometime_o a_o quarter_n of_o their_o man_n sick_a together_o and_o how_o melancholy_a that_o must_v be_v and_o at_o last_o be_v serve_v as_o the_o mary_n man_n that_o bring_v home_o about_o forty_o of_o those_o man_n they_o carry_v out_o and_o bury_v about_o six_o or_o seven_o hundred_o man_n and_o these_o forty_o man_n not_o suffer_v to_o have_v a_o penny_n of_o money_n one_o shore_n to_o refresh_v themselves_o and_o tell_v their_o friend_n that_o some_o escape_v alive_a i_o be_o afraid_a that_o some_o hard_a heart_a wretch_n make_v as_o if_o our_o seamen_n misery_n be_v a_o comedy_n but_o god_n know_v whether_o the_o next_o age_n will_v not_o call_v it_o a_o tragedy_n see_v such_o dreadful_a number_n of_o life_n have_v be_v lose_v but_o however_o it_o be_v his_o majesty_n and_o the_o parliament_n may_v now_o inquire_v of_o the_o actor_n how_o it_o be_v and_o why_o it_o be_v so_o contrive_v and_o the_o charge_n of_o the_o whole_a seem_v so_o great_a and_o show_v no_o better_o but_o my_o wit_n run_v a_o woolgathering_a instead_o of_o write_v a_o few_o head_n i_o make_v so_o great_a body_n they_o will_v require_v a_o hour_n time_n to_o undress_v by_o the_o fireside_n at_o night_n before_o bedtime_n and_o the_o discourse_n may_v seem_v tedious_a but_o if_o so_o how_o tedious_a must_v that_o misery_n be_v when_o it_o may_v be_v a_o few_o live_v represent_v forty_o thousand_o misery_n and_o i_o will_v have_v put_v in_o a_o pretty_a deal_n of_o discourse_n of_o knavery_n also_o as_o how_o it_o may_v be_v the_o king_n and_o country_n may_v be_v cheat_v shameful_o but_o if_o it_o be_v to_o be_v hear_v only_o at_o the_o navy-office_n or_o admiralty-office_n as_o one_o great_a cheat_n be_v that_o i_o go_v about_o last_o year_n and_o forger_n of_o power_n and_o another_o that_o i_o go_v to_o the_o commissioner_n that_o state_v the_o public_a account_n this_o year_n about_o but_o they_o have_v not_o leisure_n i_o suppose_v the_o party_n be_v peace_n be_v make_v up_o another_o way_n but_o i_o will_v have_v have_v the_o method_n of_o cheat_v to_o be_v find_v out_o above_o and_o prevent_v by_o law_n for_o time_n to_o come_v for_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o king_n and_o the_o country_n for_o i_o suppose_v there_o have_v be_v so_o many_o information_n of_o the_o king_n be_v be_v cheat_v and_o the_o seaman_n cheat_v that_o have_v be_v bring_v before_o the_o admiralty_n and_o navy-board_n that_o they_o know_v the_o method_n of_o knavery_n ten_o time_n more_o than_o i_o and_o it_o may_v be_v as_o carry_v coal_n to_o newcastle_n to_o tell_v they_o but_o i_o wonder_v they_o have_v not_o make_v a_o outcry_n to_o the_o parliament_n against_o all_o the_o cheat_a and_o knavery_n they_o have_v be_v inform_v of_o for_o if_o their_o skill_n be_v only_o in_o the_o run_v and_o ruine_v of_o seaman_n out_o of_o their_o pay_n when_o they_o be_v sick_a or_o dead_a i_o be_o sorry_a and_o especial_o see_v i_o can_v find_v it_o wear_v well_o we_o have_v lose_v so_o much_o this_o year_n our_o account_n will_v not_o come_v even_o beside_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o hope_n the_o brave_a hope_n o_o that_o england_n shall_v lose_v their_o hope_n at_o sea_n to_o the_o french_a this_o year_n and_o now_o i_o think_v of_o the_o hope_n there_o be_v five_o ship_n of_o the_o english_a as_o i_o understand_v and_o 2_o go_v away_o and_o 2_o run_v away_o and_o there_o be_v 5_o ship_n of_o the_o french_a and_o they_o like_o cunning_a knave_n keep_v together_o and_o so_o get_v away_o the_o hope_n though_o she_o fight_v well_o and_o now_o our_o brave_a sovereign_n be_v burn_v which_o be_v to_o be_v lament_v and_o for_o that_o she_o be_v so_o brave_a a_o ship_n and_o name_v the_o sovereign_n and_o as_o for_o the_o vulgar_a name_n some_o call_v she_o the_o sufferance_n as_o to_o that_o name_n the_o sufferance_n if_o all_o the_o seamen_n calamity_n be_v redress_v i_o suppose_v they_o will_v never_o see_v such_o a_o sufferance_n again_o in_o haste_n but_o i_o wish_v we_o may_v see_v a_o brave_a new_a hope_n and_o as_o good_a a_o ship_n as_o the_o other_o for_o our_o gracious_a king_n to_o go_v on_o board_n of_o and_o name_v she_o the_o new_a sovereign_n and_o so_o much_o to_o that_o but_o 43._o it_o may_v be_v consider_v of_o that_o see_v we_o have_v lose_v near_o 100_o ship_n of_o war_n these_o last_o 7_o year_n to_o a_o prodigious_a charge_n to_o the_o nation_n and_o many_o people_n admire_v what_o be_v do_v with_o all_o the_o money_n raise_v never_o consider_v that_o since_o we_o save_v our_o ship_n from_o be_v lose_v by_o fight_v at_o first_o we_o have_v lose_v and_o fool_v away_o near_o as_o many_o since_o as_o will_v cost_v two_o million_o of_o money_n to_o build_v more_o beside_o the_o million_o of_o money_n extraordinary_a to_o keep_v a_o heap_n of_o ship_n always_o in_o pay_n though_o a_o great_a many_o of_o they_o seldom_o send_v word_n home_n what_o good_a they_o do_v abroad_o and_o i_o have_v sometime_o think_v it_o be_v possible_a to_o act_v like_o boy_n in_o the_o street_n that_o meet_v before_o processioning-day_n great_a heap_n and_o number_n as_o if_o they_o will_v drive_v the_o town_n before_o they_o and_o poor_a wretch_n it_o may_v be_v not_o one_o in_o 6_o have_v the_o heart_n to_o strike_v a_o stroke_n only_o run_v about_o and_o dirt_n their_o clothes_n and_o put_v their_o parent_n to_o charge_n but_o this_o by_o the_o way_n as_o to_o our_o ship_n lose_v for_o time_n to_o come_v it_o may_v be_v useful_a for_o the_o commissioner_n that_o state_n the_o public_a account_n to_o have_v the_o case_n of_o our_o ship_n lose_v bring_v before_o they_o that_o if_o any_o body_n be_v in_o fault_n they_o may_v not_o be_v all_o excuse_v and_o indeed_o so_o long_o as_o the_o seaman_n be_v send_v away_o in_o other_o ship_n and_o the_o commander_n be_v their_o own_o accuser_n and_o their_o friend_n the_o judge_n they_o will_v do_v well_o enough_o i_o have_v sometime_o think_v how_o mischievous_a a_o fellow_n no_o body_n be_v grow_v since_o i_o be_v a_o child_n then_o he_o use_v to_o be_v accuse_v for_o steal_v apple_n and_o eat_v up_o odd_a thing_n or_o drink_v up_o the_o wine_n or_o strong_a drink_n in_o a_o house_n but_o now_o if_o there_o be_v ship_n murder_v or_o fool_v away_o or_o betray_v to_o the_o enemy_n or_o fleet_n miscarry_v as_o bad_a as_o our_o smirna_n fleet_n no_o body_n be_v most_o time_n call_v to_o account_n and_o punish_v for_o the_o same_o and_o when_o as_o the_o seaman_n of_o england_n be_v ruin_v and_o destroy_v and_o dead_a or_o
