a_o reply_n to_o a_o answer_n from_z a_o friend_z to_o the_o apology_n for_o the_o english_a nation_n that_o the_o trade_n to_o the_o east-indies_n and_o africa_n shall_v be_v free_a london_n print_v in_o the_o year_n 1692._o a_o reply_n to_o a_o answer_n from_o a_o friend_n to_o the_o apology_n for_o the_o english_a nation_n that_o the_o trade_n to_o the_o east-indies_n and_o africa_n shall_v be_v free_a sir_n when_o i_o desire_v your_o opinion_n of_o the_o apology_n for_o the_o english_a nation_n etc._n etc._n i_o expect_v you_o will_v have_v first_o answer_v where_o i_o begin_v viz._n that_o all_o nation_n as_o well_o as_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o nation_n by_o equal_a right_n or_o the_o law_n of_o nature_n may_v entertain_v trade_n and_o commerce_n with_o one_o another_o and_o if_o in_o time_n of_o peace_n humane_a law_n shall_v debar_v subject_n of_o this_o right_n this_o be_v practise_v iniquity_n by_o a_o law_n and_o that_o you_o will_v have_v object_v against_o the_o reason_n which_o the_o parliament_n give_v 3_o jac._n c._n 6._o for_o the_o freedom_n of_o the_o english_a in_o the_o spanish_a trade_n or_o that_o these_o reason_n do_v not_o hold_v in_o the_o east-india_n trade_n but_o of_o these_o you_o say_v not_o one_o word_n you_o say_v when_o you_o be_v in_o london_n all_o man_n agree_v the_o east-india_n trade_n can_v not_o be_v drive_v without_o a_o company_n because_o of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o dutch_a in_o those_o sea_n i_o suppose_v you_o mistake_v i_o in_o contend_v against_o a_o company_n exclusive_a to_o all_o other_o for_o it_o be_v not_o a_o company_n i_o contend_v against_o but_o the_o exclusion_n of_o all_o other_o for_o your_o seem_a reason_n of_o the_o dutch_a power_n in_o the_o east-indies_n to_o necessitate_v a_o trade_n by_o the_o english_a in_o a_o company_n it_o will_v not_o hold_v unless_o you_o can_v make_v a_o english_a company_n to_o be_v equal_a to_o the_o dutch_a in_o power_n which_o can_v never_o be_v hope_v for_o but_o if_o it_o can_v it_o can_v never_o be_v by_o exclude_v other_o which_o may_v contribute_v to_o the_o increase_n of_o it_o for_o the_o instance_n you_o give_v of_o the_o turkey_n trade_n it_o have_v no_o resemblance_n to_o the_o trade_n in_o the_o east-indies_n for_o our_o trade_n to_o turkey_n be_v upon_o the_o matter_n but_o to_o one_o place_n viz._n smyrna_n whereas_o that_o which_o the_o company_n call_v the_o east-india_n trade_n be_v to_o all_o the_o part_n on_o the_o east_n of_o africa_n and_o the_o southern_a part_n of_o asia_n to_o the_o north_n of_o china_n with_o all_o the_o island_n which_o lie_v in_o that_o vast_a ocean_n so_o that_o for_o aught_o be_v know_v tenfold_o the_o trade_n may_v be_v manage_v by_o the_o english_a there_o if_o the_o trade_n be_v free_a than_o to_o turkey_n which_o be_v impossible_a to_o be_v do_v by_o one_o company_n exclusive_a to_o all_o other_o in_o the_o numerous_a and_o vast_a dominion_n in_o those_o part_n of_o the_o world_n beside_o the_o objection_n which_o you_o make_v of_o the_o dutch_a power_n in_o those_o sea_n to_o exclude_v all_o other_o but_o a_o company_n be_v a_o topick_n set_v up_o only_o by_o the_o favourer_n of_o the_o east-india_n company_n for_o unless_o you_o suppose_v the_o dutch_a power_n to_o he_o more_o than_o that_o of_o all_o the_o prince_n of_o africa_n asia_n and_o all_o the_o island_n in_o the_o vast_a ocean_n these_o can_v give_v law_n to_o they_o all_z and_o this_o be_v a_o argument_n which_o the_o company_n themselves_o do_v not_o believe_v for_o if_o grant_v interloper_n can_v never_o trade_n to_o the_o east-indies_n which_o be_v the_o great_a fear_n the_o company_n have_v but_o suppose_v all_o the_o prince_n in_o africa_n and_o asia_n can_v not_o protect_v the_o english_a in_o their_o trade_n with_o they_o yet_o sure_a a_o king_n of_o england_n be_v not_o so_o fall_v from_o power_n but_o that_o he_o be_v able_a to_o protect_v his_o subject_n in_o all_o their_o just_a trade_n from_o the_o violence_n and_o oppression_n of_o the_o dutch._n you_o say_v the_o commons_o have_v reason_n to_o refer_v the_o business_n of_o the_o erect_v a_o new_a east-india_n company_n to_o the_o king_n they_o have_v so_o little_a time_n to_o sit._n the_o commons_o have_v busy_v themselves_o above_o four_o month_n in_o establish_v this_o company_n more_o than_o in_o any_o thing_n else_o and_o then_o throw_v it_o upon_o the_o king_n who_o in_o the_o circumstance_n he_o be_v in_o can_v attend_v it_o four_o day_n but_o you_o say_v you_o doubt_v not_o but_o the_o commons_o upon_o their_o next_o sit_v will_v assume_v this_o business_n again_o and_o then_o will_v undoubted_o blow_v up_o the_o present_a company_n but_o this_o will_v be_v more_o strange_a than_o to_o vote_n a_o east-india_n company_n exclusive_a to_o all_o other_o to_o be_v establish_v by_o act_n of_o parliament_n and_o then_o to_o throw_v it_o upon_o the_o king_n and_o after_o to_o take_v it_o out_o of_o the_o power_n of_o the_o king_n but_o here_o you_o may_v see_v how_o industrious_o man_n pursue_v their_o interest_n without_o any_o regard_n to_o justice_n or_o

this_o they_o be_v at_o as_o vast_a charge_n in_o maintain_v it_o so_o that_o where_o the_o english_a and_o dutch_a trade_n with_o all_o the_o other_o prince_n of_o the_o indies_n persia_n or_o
