ready_a enough_o to_o follow_v the_o french_a in_o their_o vanity_n but_o if_o we_o must_v be_v their_o imitator_n let_v we_o not_o only_o imitate_v they_o in_o their_o airy_a and_o light_a part_n but_o also_o in_o their_o solid_a and_o manage_v part_n too_o that_o by_o our_o raise_n sufficient_a supply_n and_o good_a conduct_n we_o may_v prosecute_v the_o war_n to_o effect_v there_o be_v few_o of_o the_o nobility_n and_o high_a rank_n who_o have_v not_o unnecessary_o spend_v six_o or_o seven_o time_n as_o much_o as_o they_o have_v pay_v in_o tax_n and_o in_o as_o short_a a_o time_n too_o without_o any_o concern_v or_o regret_n and_o there_o be_v few_o of_o the_o degree_n under_o they_o who_o have_v not_o some_o time_n or_o other_o have_v loss_n by_o sea_n trust_v commodity_n or_o lend_v to_o insolvent_a person_n to_o the_o value_n abovementioned_a and_o we_o find_v by_o experience_n that_o after_o some_o little_a time_n they_o bear_v those_o loss_n well_o enough_o and_o rub_v on_o and_o go_v about_o their_o business_n as_o cheerful_o as_o before_o why_o then_o shall_v we_o bear_v a_o payment_n to_o the_o public_a for_o loss_n i_o can_v call_v it_o of_o like_a value_n with_o a_o more_o easy_a and_o less_o anxious_a concern_v since_o thereby_o we_o hope_v to_o secure_v the_o rest_n and_o to_o relieve_v and_o rescue_v our_o ally_n and_o friend_n from_o the_o great_a oppression_n they_o lie_v under_o but_o perhaps_o this_o dry_a way_n of_o reason_v may_v grow_v somewhat_o tedious_a to_o move_v the_o affection_n and_o reason_n together_o may_v be_v more_o prevail_v with_o some_o suppose_v then_o we_o shall_v hear_v the_o rage_a sea_n have_v enter_v our_o neighbour_n country_n round_o and_o how_o it_o bluster_v and_o swell_v and_o come_v roll_a along_o and_o

to_o every_o man_n be_v private_a thought_n if_o they_o will_v but_o set_v themselves_o to_o represent_v the_o danger_n just_a as_o it_o appear_v to_o they_o then_o if_o they_o will_v not_o have_v be_v willing_a to_o have_v make_v such_o a_o offer_v as_o above_o and_o think_v they_o have_v compound_v at_o a_o easy_a rate_n our_o danger_n now_o for_o aught_o i_o know_v be_v as_o great_a as_o it_o be_v suppose_v to_o be_v then_o though_o not_o all_o out_o so_o near_o at_o hand_n for_o though_o a_o conqueror_n may_v not_o take_v away_o our_o life_n as_o abovesaid_a yet_o such_o a_o life_n as_o we_o shall_v then_o have_v will_v but_o be_v a_o linger_a death_n why_o then_o shall_v we_o not_o be_v as_o willing_a to_o give_v as_o good_a a_o price_n towards_o procure_v our_o safety_n now_o as_o then_o therefore_o let_v we_o every_o one_o set_v apart_o two_o year_n revenue_n and_o so_o proportionable_o according_a to_o every_o one_o ability_n for_o the_o public_a service_n beside_o what_o be_v already_o pass_v let_v we_o account_v ourselves_o debtor_n to_o the_o public_a so_o much_o it_o be_v a_o honest_a and_o just_a debt_n and_o ought_v first_o to_o be_v pay_v and_o those_o who_o have_v no_o mind_n to_o be_v in_o debt_n may_v reckon_v upon_o it_o as_o a_o adventure_n send_v out_o it_o may_v perhaps_o make_v a_o return_n with_o good_a increase_n at_o worst_a there_o be_v good_a reason_n to_o hope_n it_o will_v ensure_v the_o rest_n of_o their_o stock_n all_o this_o will_v arise_v to_o a_o very_a great_a sum_n and_o not_o much_o hurt_v the_o wealthy_a and_o rich_a

be_v practical_a it_o seem_v great_o necessary_a to_o lighten_v the_o burden_n of_o those_o on_o who_o tax_n lie_v most_o heavy_a and_o place_n it_o on_o those_o who_o be_v better_a able_a to_o bear_v
