off_o the_o prohibition_n of_o irish_a cattle_n prove_v 1._o that_o the_o prohibition_n of_o irish_a cattle_n be_v not_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o loss_n of_o trade_n with_o ireland_n 2._o that_o the_o grant_v a_o free_a importation_n of_o cattle_n from_o ireland_n will_v not_o in_o the_o least_o increase_v the_o trade_n to_o ireland_n 3._o that_o the_o prohibition_n of_o irish_a cattle_n have_v

their_o possession_n a_o people_n so_o wed_v to_o their_o ancient_a custom_n that_o nothing_o be_v more_o hateful_a to_o they_o then_o the_o alteration_n of_o any_o of_o they_o or_o to_o make_v any_o

plant_v and_o people_v by_o english_a and_o scotch_a it_o be_v now_o a_o quite_o different_a thing_n the_o english_a when_o they_o go_v over_o to_o inhabit_v after_o the_o war_n be_v end_v buy_v up_o and_o carry_v over_o with_o they_o the_o largest_n and_o best_a cattle_n horse_n and_o sheep_n that_o england_n can_v produce_v and_o from_o thence_o have_v increase_v such_o a_o breed_n of_o cattle_n

make_v not_o be_v inferior_a to_o what_o be_v make_v in_o england_n for_o goodness_n 2._o the_o parliament_n of_o ireland_n do_v and_o the_o english_a do_v give_v all_o the_o encouragement_n they_o can_v for_o the_o set_n up_o of_o manufacture_n and_o to_o all_o artificer_n to_o come_v and_o live_v among_o they_o which_o be_v the_o true_a reason_n of_o the_o loss_n and_o decay_n of_o trade_n the_o english_a former_o have_v to_o ireland_n but_o for_o further_a answer_n to_o the_o say_a paper_n and_o to_o their_o first_o argument_n 1._o the_o prohibition_n have_v prove_v prejudicial_a to_o his_o majesty_n custom_n 1._o the_o custom_n of_o cattle_n import_v out_o of_o ireland_n be_v very_o little_a and_o the_o great_a charge_n in_o the_o look_n after_o their_o come_n in_o and_o collect_v the_o duty_n do_v amount_v to_o near_o the_o money_n if_o not_o more_o than_o what_o the_o custom_n come_v to_o for_o foreign_a good_n that_o be_v import_v direct_o for_o ireland_n the_o merchant_n of_o ireland_n be_v able_a to_o fell_v they_o cheap_a by_o 20_o per_fw-la cent_n then_o to_o bring_v they_o into_o england_n and_o pay_v custom_n here_o and_o then_o carry_v they_o to_o ireland_n 2._o it_o have_v great_o prejudice_v most_o of_o the_o land-owner_n in_o england_n there_o not_o be_v land_n in_o england_n for_o breed_n to_o raise_v a_o stock_n for_o feed_v to_o supply_v the_o nation_n and_o so_o have_v transfer_v most_o of_o the_o victual_v for_o home_n consumption_n foreign_a trade_n and_o naval_a provision_n out_o of_o england_n into_o ireland_n 1._o for_o answer_v this_o be_v so_o great_a a_o error_n that_o ever_o since_o the_o law_n be_v make_v there_o have_v be_v no_o want_n of_o provision_n in_o england_n and_o that_o at_o reasonable_a prize_n not_o only_o in_o time_n of_o peace_n but_o in_o the_o time_n of_o war_n his_o majesty_n fleet_n be_v well_o supply_v without_o the_o go_n to_o ireland_n for_o any_o 2._o no_o merchant_n will_v send_v their_o vessel_n for_o ireland_n for_o victual_v their_o vessel_n although_o their_o provision_n be_v very_o much_o cheap_a their_o loss_n of_o time_n beside_o the_o hazard_n of_o the_o sea_n their_o seaman_n be_v in_o constant_a pay_n will_v be_v treble_a the_o loss_n of_o what_o they_o shall_v save_v by_o their_o buy_v their_o provision_n 3._o how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o breed_n land-owner_n can_v be_v loser_n when_o it_o be_v allege_v they_o sell_v their_o lean_a cattle_n far_o dear_a than_o former_o and_o for_o the_o feeding-land_n they_o can_v be_v loser_n by_o they_o for_o although_o scotland_n daily_o bring_v in_o lean_a cattle_n yet_o ireland_n will_v fill_v the_o market_n with_o fat_a cattle_n especial_o sheep_n and_o never_o trouble_v the_o feed_v land_n with_o they_o they_o be_v feed_v fit_a for_o any_o market_n 3._o this_o prohibition_n be_v destructive_a to_o navigation_n 1._o this_o be_v as_o great_a a_o error_n for_o the_o irish_a have_v ship_n enough_o of_o their_o own_o to_o transport_v their_o cattle_n 2._o those_o many_o ship_n that_o carry_v coal_n for_o ireland_n and_o do_v return_v only_o in_o their_o ballast_n will_v bring_v over_o more_o cattle_n than_o ireland_n can_v spare_v 4._o the_o dutch_a have_v be_v supply_v from_o ireland_n it_o be_v true_a and_o so_o have_v france_n spain_n portugal_n and_o the_o strait_n which_o can_v be_v prevent_v there_o be_v so_o many_o merchant_n not_o only_o english_a but_o other_o nation_n that_o have_v their_o factor_n reside_v in_o ireland_n and_o all_o the_o port_n well-stored_n with_o ship_n that_o they_o do_v not_o only_o supply_v all_o those_o part_n with_o provision_n but_o make_v their_o return_v with_o those_o commodity_n the_o kingdom_n can_v vend_n and_o the_o overplus_n be_v make_v in_o money_n 5._o the_o irish_a take_v no_o money_n out_o of_o england_n this_o also_o be_v very_o true_a but_o now_o much_o better_o for_o they_o be_v force_v to_o bring_v over_o their_o money_n to_o pay_v their_o rent_n to_o their_o landlord_n that_o live_v in_o england_n which_o be_v many_o but_o for_o carry_v over_o good_n they_o care_v not_o because_o they_o can_v be_v supply_v at_o far_o cheap_a rate_n 6._o for_o the_o price_n of_o beef_n in_o ireland_n that_o be_v a_o great_a mistake_n for_o the_o beef_n they_o barrel_n up_o for_o sea_n be_v not_o sell_v under_o 9_o or_o 10_o s._n a_o c._n or_o more_o and_o shall_v the_o english_a be_v bring_v to_o sell_v at_o the_o same_o rate_n the_o land-owner_n must_v of_o necessity_n abate_v above_o one_o half_a of_o their_o rent_n which_o will_v not_o be_v well_o please_v to_o the_o gentry_n of_o england_n 7._o for_o the_o lessen_v their_o breed_n of_o cattle_n 1._o they_o do_v not_o lessen_v their_o breed_n of_o cattle_n although_o they_o do_v increase_v in_o their_o breed_n of_o sheep_n for_o there_o be_v more_o land_n in_o ireland_n than_o will_v breed_v for_o more_o than_o be_v yet_o do_v have_v they_o but_o encouragement_n to_o transport_v for_o england_n what_o they_o can_v vend_n in_o other_o part_n of_o the_o world_n 2._o for_o their_o send_v their_o wool_n for_o england_n they_o do_v what_o in_o they_o lie_v to_o prevent_v the_o parliament_n of_o ireland_n have_v lay_v a_o custom_n upon_o wool_n that_o shall_v be_v send_v for_o england_n of_o near_a 30_o per_fw-la cent_n 3._o they_o have_v also_o lay_v a_o great_a custom_n upon_o all_o cloth_n stuff_n stocking_n and_o hat_n that_o shall_v be_v import_v out_o of_o england_n 4._o to_o encourage_v the_o make_n of_o those_o manufacture_n in_o ireland_n they_o do_v lay_v a_o very_a small_a custom_n upon_o all_o those_o manufacture_n that_o shall_v be_v make_v in_o ireland_n and_o be_v export_v into_o any_o part_n of_o the_o world_n which_o have_v produce_v that_o effect_n that_o they_o do_v not_o now_o only_o supply_v themselves_o with_o all_o those_o commodity_n but_o in_o short_a time_n will_v be_v able_a to_o supply_v england_n with_o considerable_a quantity_n and_o for_o send_v their_o wool_n to_o other_o part_n of_o the_o world_n it_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o law_n and_o if_o they_o do_v it_o be_v by_o stealth_n 5._o for_o the_o cheapness_n of_o provision_n in_o ireland_n they_o be_v able_a to_o work_v cheap_a than_o in_o england_n
