and_o likewise_o for_o the_o bread_n and_o biscuit_n which_o be_v ship_v from_o hence_o have_v it_o not_o always_o be_v make_v of_o french_a corn_n purposely_o bring_v over_o hither_o and_o that_o at_o a_o dear_a rate_n only_o to_o preserve_v the_o plenty_n of_o our_o own_o grain_n until_o now_o of_o late_a day_n that_o the_o farmer_n here_o begin_v to_o cry_v out_o and_o say_v that_o the_o cheapness_n of_o corn_n do_v disinable_a they_o to_o pay_v their_o dear_a rent_n thus_o do_v the_o east_n india_n company_n every_o way_n accommodate_v their_o proceed_n for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o further_o concern_v their_o drink_n be_v it_o not_o a_o very_a great_a part_n water_n some_o wine_n and_o cider_n and_o but_o little_a beer_n also_o the_o flesh_n they_o eat_v be_v beef_n and_o pork_n and_o that_o only_a for_o three_o day_n in_o a_o week_n the_o rest_n of_o their_o victual_n be_v fish_n some_o butter_n cheese_n pease_n oatemale_a and_o other_o thing_n all_o which_o be_v proportion_v into_o a_o very_a spare_a diet_n to_o every_o man_n by_o allowance_n so_o that_o here_o be_v no_o excess_n nor_o riot_n or_o any_o other_o mean_n to_o make_v our_o victual_n scant_o and_o dear_a as_o be_v by_o some_o erroneous_o suppose_v but_o rather_o by_o this_o course_n of_o life_n our_o plenty_n be_v much_o advance_v and_o so_o i_o will_v give_v answer_n to_o the_o next_o part_n which_o be_v mortality_n and_o great_a decay_n of_o mariner_n the_o life_n of_o man_n be_v so_o precious_a mortality_n that_o it_o ought_v not_o light_o to_o be_v expose_v to_o danger_n and_o yet_o we_o know_v that_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o our_o life_n be_v nothing_o but_o a_o passage_n unto_o death_n wherein_o one_o can_v neither_o stay_n nor_o slack_v his_o pace_n but_o all_o man_n run_v in_o one_o manner_n and_o in_o one_o celerity_n the_o short_a liver_n run_v his_o course_n no_o fast_o than_o the_o long_a both_o have_v a_o like_a passage_n of_o time_n howbeit_o the_o first_o have_v not_o so_o far_o to_o run_v as_o the_o late_a now_o it_o be_v this_o length_n of_o life_n which_o nature_n seek_v and_o state_n likewise_o endeavour_v to_o preserve_v in_o worthy_a man_n but_o none_o be_v account_v so_o worthy_a in_o this_o nature_n save_v only_o they_o who_o labour_n in_o their_o vocation_n and_o function_n both_o for_o the_o public_a good_a and_o for_o their_o private_a benefit_n thus_o may_v we_o esteem_v our_o good_a mariner_n commonwealth_n to_o be_v of_o no_o small_a use_n unto_o this_o commonwealth_n but_o take_v they_o from_o their_o laudable_a and_o accustom_a employment_n for_o want_v of_o voyage_n to_o sea_n we_o see_v what_o desperate_a course_n they_o do_v then_o attempt_v by_o join_v even_o with_o turk_n and_o infidel_n to_o rob_v and_o spoil_v all_o christian_a nation_n so_o that_o we_o may_v conclude_v we_o must_v not_o only_o breed_v up_o mariner_n but_o also_o seek_v by_o trade_n to_o give_v they_o maintenance_n well_o all_o this_o be_v true_a but_o say_v they_o the_o east_n india_n company_n do_v neither_o breed_n nor_o maintain_v but_o destroy_v the_o wont_a number_n of_o our_o mariner_n how_o can_v this_o be_v when_o it_o be_v most_o certain_a that_o england_n beside_o the_o east_n india_n fleet_v have_v never_o yet_o more_o ship_v then_o at_o this_o present_a neither_o do_v any_o of_o they_o stay_v at_o home_n for_o want_n of_o mariner_n no_o not_o at_o this_o time_n when_o many_o hundred_o sailor_n be_v employ_v in_o extraordinary_a service_n for_o his_o majesty_n in_o a_o royal_a fleet_n of_o ship_n now_o at_o sea_n beside_o those_o great_a number_n of_o our_o best_a mariner_n which_o have_v be_v and_o daily_o be_v waste_v and_o take_v prisoner_n by_o the_o turk_n so_o where_o be_v this_o want_n or_o what_o be_v our_o misery_n more_o than_o the_o want_n of_o true_a information_n in_o they_o that_o be_v so_o ill_o persuade_v of_o our_o company_n be_v it_o not_o certain_a that_o as_o the_o east_n india_n voyage_n be_v long_o commonwealth_n so_o likewise_o in_o nature_n course_n many_o shall_v die_v by_o length_n of_o time_n although_o they_o stay_v at_o home_n and_o to_o recompense_v the_o loss_n of_o those_o that_o die_v do_v not_o the_o east_n india_n company_n with_o great_a providence_n yearly_a ship_n out_o at_o least_o 400._o landman_n in_o their_o fleet_n which_o in_o one_o voyage_n prove_v good_a mariner_n to_o serve_v the_o kingdom_n and_o common_a wealth_n unto_o which_o many_o of_o they_o be_v a_o burden_n before_o they_o obtain_v this_o employment_n and_o thus_o be_v the_o kingdom_n purge_v of_o desperate_a and_o unruly_a people_n who_o be_v keep_v in_o awe_n by_o the_o good_a discipline_n at_o sea_n do_v often_o change_v their_o former_a course_n of_o life_n and_o so_o advance_v their_o fortune_n neither_o indeed_o be_v these_o voyage_n so_o dangerous_a and_o mortal_a as_o be_v report_v for_o how_o many_o of_o our_o ship_n have_v go_v and_o come_v from_o the_o east_n indies_n without_o the_o loss_n of_o five_o man_n in_o a_o hundred_o they_o other_o again_o have_v have_v worse_a success_n in_o the_o first_o beginning_n when_o the_o season_n the_o place_n and_o their_o contagion_n be_v not_o so_o well_o know_v unto_o we_o yet_o time_n have_v teach_v we_o many_o thing_n both_o for_o the_o preservation_n of_o health_n and_o speedy_a performance_n of_o our_o voyage_n they_o heretofore_o but_o the_o method_n of_o my_o discourse_n bid_v i_o write_v more_o of_o this_o in_o the_o next_o part_n which_o be_v destruction_n and_o this_o i_o must_v divide_v into_o two_o part_n in_o the_o first_o i_o will_v consider_v the_o want_n of_o diverse_a ship_n send_v to_o the_o east_n indies_n which_o be_v waste_v there_o and_o in_o the_o second_o i_o will_v answer_v the_o suppose_a overthrow_n of_o the_o turkey_n trade_n together_o with_o much_o of_o our_o ship_n which_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v employ_v thither_o first_o therefore_o concern_v the_o decay_n of_o our_o ship_n in_o the_o indies_n it_o can_v be_v deny_v indies_n but_o there_o have_v be_v great_a spoil_n of_o they_o in_o these_o three_o last_o year_n not_o by_o the_o danger_n of_o the_o sea_n or_o by_o the_o strength_n of_o enemy_n but_o by_o unkind_a and_o unexpected_a quarrel_n with_o our_o neighbour_n the_o hollander_n who_o have_v take_v and_o surprise_v twelve_o of_o our_o ship_n at_o several_a time_n and_o in_o sundry_a place_n to_o our_o unspeakable_a loss_n and_o hindrance_n together_o with_o the_o death_n of_o many_o of_o our_o worthy_a mariner_n dutch_a who_o have_v be_v slay_v and_o die_v prisoner_n under_o their_o hand_n and_o this_o have_v so_o much_o the_o more_o 〈…〉_z the_o rumour_n of_o their_o mortality_n neither_o list_v i_o here_o to_o aggravate_v the_o fact_n more_fw-mi they_o thus_o brief_o to_o give_v answer_n to_o the_o objection_n for_o our_o late_a union_n with_o the_o dutch_a do_v promise_v a_o double_a recompense_n of_o gain_n in_o time_n to_o come_v and_o they_o who_o make_v this_o trade_n so_o poor_a and_o unprofitable_a be_v much_o mistake_v in_o the_o reckon_n for_o the_o present_a loss_n which_o cause_v many_o adventurer_n so_o much_o to_o despair_v be_v not_o in_o the_o substance_n of_o the_o trade_n but_o by_o the_o evil_a accident_n which_o have_v befall_v the_o same_o &_o to_o make_v this_o point_n more_o plain_a i_o must_v yet_o declare_v some_o other_o particular_n in_o which_o i_o will_v endeavour_v very_o brief_o to_o set_v down_o the_o sum_n of_o the_o whole_a business_n which_o the_o english_a have_v hitherto_o perform_v in_o the_o east_n indies_n first_o therefore_o i_o do_v observe_v that_o since_o the_o begin_n of_o this_o trade_n until_o the_o month_n of_o july_n last_o anno_fw-la 1620._o begin_v there_o have_v be_v send_v thither_o 79._o ship_n in_o several_a voyage_n whereof_o 34._o be_v already_o come_v home_o in_o safety_n rich_o lade_v 4._o have_v be_v wear_v out_o by_o long_a service_n from_o port_n to_o port_n in_o the_o indies_n 2._o be_v overwhelm_v in_o the_o trim_v there_o 6._o have_v be_v cast_v away_o by_o the_o peril_n of_o the_o sea_n 12._o have_v be_v take_v and_o surprise_v by_o the_o dutch_a whereof_o diverse_a will_v be_v waste_v and_o little_a worth_n before_o they_o be_v restore_v and_o 21._o good_a ship_n do_v still_o remain_v in_o the_o indies_n so_o this_o be_v a_o true_a account_n of_o our_o ship_n trade_n and_o next_o concern_v our_o stock_n it_o be_v a_o certain_a truth_n that_o in_o all_o the_o say_a ship_n there_o have_v be_v send_v out_o in_o ready_a money_n as_o well_o out_o of_o this_o realm_n as_o from_o all_o other_o place_n wheresoever_o beyond_o the_o sea_n which_o have_v not_o be_v land_v in_o this_o kingdom_n the_o value_n of_o 548090._o pound_n sterling_a in_o foreign_a
