A39135	The toutch-stone of mony and commerce: or an expedient for increase of trade mony, and shiping in England. Shewing also how the arrears of the army, and other publique debts, may be forthwith satisfied, without laying more impositions upon the people, or burthen on trade. Together with custome and excise regulated. Wherein is manifest the destruction of trade, by its irregular mannagement at present: with means to prevent the like inconvenience from time to come. By S. E. A lover of his country.	S. E.	1654 (1654)	Wing E41; ESTC R224198	20,809	38

be_v good_a though_o not_o for_o the_o end_n intend_v for_o that_o the_o lay_v such_o a_o imposition_n thereupon_o will_v peradventure_o cause_v many_o gentleman_n and_o other_o to_o leave_v it_o
