our_o wool_n and_o the_o labour_n of_o our_o people_n may_v be_v bring_v down_o as_o a_o good_a method_n to_o make_v way_n for_o the_o exportation_n and_o consumption_n of_o more_o of_o our_o woollen_a good_n abroad_o it_o be_v a_o oversight_n in_o the_o author_n not_o to_o direct_v those_o proposition_n to_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o very_a young_a nobility_n and_o gentry_n it_o be_v unlikely_a that_o those_o past_o their_o minority_n shall_v be_v persuade_v to_o pursue_v they_o for_o upon_o the_o first_o view_n they_o appear_v to_o contradict_v all_o our_o ancient_a

still_o in_o force_n and_o those_o against_o the_o exportation_n of_o bullion_n be_v in_o force_n till_z ann_n 1663._o and_o upon_o a_o further_a examination_n the_o put_n in_o practice_n such_o

they_o will_v find_v no_o reason_n to_o advance_v they_o for_o as_o by_o diminish_v the_o price_n of_o wool_n they_o will_v make_v a_o abatement_n in_o their_o rent_n that_o depend_v upon_o the_o sale_n of_o that_o commodity_n so_o by_o fall_v the_o price_n of_o labour_n occasion_n a_o universal_a poverty_n and_o inability_n in_o the_o people_n to_o buy_v their_o corn_n cattle_n etc._n etc._n and_o as_o it_o will_v be_v impossible_a that_o the_o gold_n and_o silver_n send_v out_o to_o purchase_v such_o good_n shall_v be_v bring_v into_o the_o nation_n again_o by_o the_o immediate_a consumption_n of_o such_o good_n here_o so_o the_o low_a price_n to_o which_o the_o author_n will_v have_v we_o reduce_v that_o they_o may_v be_v sell_v cheap_a in_o foreign_a part_n will_v hinder_v the_o bring_n in_o of_o any_o by_o their_o sales_n abroad_o for_o either_o he_o mean_v that_o our_o woollen_a good_n must_v be_v sell_v cheap_a abroad_o as_o well_o as_o buy_v cheap_a here_o or_o else_o his_o design_n will_v be_v imperfect_a and_o if_o they_o shall_v be_v sell_v so_o cheap_a as_o he_o seem_v inclinable_a to_o have_v they_o than_o their_o product_n will_v all_o be_v take_v up_o there_o to_o purchase_v the_o good_n we_o want_v from_o foreign_a part_n and_o none_o will_v be_v reserve_v to_o come_v in_o in_o bullion_n which_o will_v not_o be_v bring_v if_o other_o good_n be_v

to_o fall_v the_o price_n of_o a_o commodity_n than_o to_o raise_v it_o again_o and_o therefore_o it_o may_v be_v presume_v that_o the_o annual_a loss_n by_o such_o low_a sales_n will_v continue_v for_o ever_o if_o we_o shall_v by_o any_o such_o method_n bring_v down_o the_o price_n of_o our_o wool_n as_o the_o author_n have_v often_o assert_v in_o the_o behalf_n of_o other_o trade_n and_o
