to_o blast_v the_o reputation_n of_o some_o person_n and_o better_a proposal_n of_o the_o same_o nature_n i_o say_v faint_o do_v because_o he_o do_v the_o first_o so_o aukward_o and_o the_o last_o

his_o heap_n of_o word_n in_o the_o first_o paragraph_n upon_o which_o i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o make_v some_o useful_a remark_n as_o first_o that_o good_a bank_n be_v certain_o very_o beneficial_a to_o trade_n but_o bad_a bank_n such_o as_o be_v under_o no_o sufficient_a check_n and_o that_o can_v give_v no_o security_n equal_a to_o the_o great_a trust_n repose_v in_o they_o and_o the_o

be_v encourage_v without_o the_o least_o delay_n his_o second_o concession_n concern_v low_a interest_n be_v very_o true_a but_o a_o little_a low_o he_o say_v no_o reason_n can_v be_v give_v for_o it_o and_o then_o i_o be_o sure_a he_o do_v not_o understand_v it_o and_o therefore_o be_v not_o likely_a to_o find_v out_o a_o true_a remedy_n he_o ought_v to_o prove_v here_o that_o his_o bank_n can_v and_o will_v lower_v interest_n and_o not_o false_o suppose_v the_o want_n of_o public_a fund_n be_v the_o cause_n of_o it_o for_o they_o be_v not_o want_v the_o crown_n revenue_n the_o church_n

from_o the_o government_n to_o apply_v they_o to_o these_o use_n and_o the_o want_n of_o satisfactory_a security_n which_o make_v money_n and_o credit_n scarce_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o many_o occasion_n require_v they_o and_o so_o keep_v up_o the_o value_n of_o interest_n nor_o be_v it_o the_o want_n of_o public_a fund_n but_o of_o sound_a credit_n and_o security_n occasion_v the_o loss_n of_o so_o many_o million_o which_o loss_n be_v among_o ourselves_o make_v the_o nation_n never_o the_o worse_o though_o particular_a person_n be_v he_o mention_n unnecessary_a credit_n which_o can_v never_o have_v a_o be_v i_o suppose_v he_o therefore_o mean_v a_o unsafe_a credit_n but_o want_v word_n to_o express_v it_o in_o his_o last_o concession_n i_o be_o glad_a to_o find_v that_o something_o else_o beside_o gold_n and_o silver_n will_v answer_v the_o use_n of_o money_n p._n 2.5.15_o which_o i_o suppose_v drop_v unaware_o from_o his_o pen_n for_o i_o be_o sure_a if_o something_o else_o can_v then_o the_o lumbard-bank_n be_v no_o such_o strange_a thing_n and_o the_o land_n credit_n for_o the_o fishery_n must_v needs_o be_v better_a than_o any_o thing_n else_o he_o can_v find_v nay_o even_o so_o much_o better_a than_o the_o idol_n gold_n and_o silver_n as_o land_n security_n be_v better_a than_o personal_n or_o good_n pledge_v and_o this_o be_v no_o private_a
