from_o little_a value_n in_o five_o year_n to_o be_v worth_a above_o seven_o thousand_o pound_n a_o year_n you_o see_v you_o have_v better_a mean_n to_o mend_v your_o land_n than_o they_o have_v your_o land_n lie_v in_o a_o manner_n under_o the_o same_o climate_n for_o chichester_n and_o mecklin_n be_v in_o one_o degree_n the_o soil_n be_v much_o alike_o as_o i_o have_v show_v you_o may_v have_v as_o good_a a_o vent_n for_o your_o commodity_n as_o they_o have_v for_o they_o if_o you_o plea_n and_o therefore_o i_o do_v not_o know_v what_o reason_n can_v hinder_v you_o from_o put_v those_o thing_n into_o practice_n you_o may_v continue_v this_o yearly_a profit_n of_o seven_o thousand_o eight_o hundred_o a_o year_n upon_o this_o five_o hundred_o acre_n if_o you_o will_v by_o liming_n dung_v or_o marling_n and_o devonshire_v again_o the_o first_o hundred_o acre_n lay_v down_o with_o clovergrass_n and_o sow_v it_o with_o flax_n and_o turnip_n as_o before_o and_o so_o go_v round_o with_o every_o hundred_o acre_n as_o former_o in_o its_o course_n but_o have_v great_a store_n of_o barren_a and_o heathy_a ground_n you_o be_v better_o improve_v that_o and_o let_v the_o clovergrass_n continue_v as_o long_o as_o it_o will_v and_o if_o after_o five_o year_n continuance_n it_o turn_v to_o a_o mingle_a grass_n yet_o that_o will_v be_v as_o good_a as_o most_o meadow_n and_o pasture_n that_o i_o know_v in_o england_n for_o it_o turn_v common_o from_o a_o red_a honey_n suckle_v to_o a_o white_a which_o we_o repute_v the_o sweet_a grass_n although_o it_o do_v not_o carry_v the_o great_a burden_n and_o i_o be_o persuade_v it_o will_v continue_v long_o if_o it_o be_v keep_v for_o seed_n and_o cut_v but_o twice_o whereas_o they_o common_o cut_v it_o thrice_o a_o year_n in_o flanders_n always_o in_o the_o sap_n which_o will_v kill_v fern_n now_o i_o will_v show_v you_o how_o they_o vent_v these_o commodity_n that_o you_o may_v learn_v the_o better_a how_o to_o vent_v you_o first_o they_o make_v great_a store_n of_o linen_n themselves_o and_o send_v it_o most_o for_o london_n what_o they_o make_v not_o in_o cloth_n they_o have_v a_o market_n every_o thursday_n at_o a_o place_n call_v st_n nicolas_n almost_o midway_o between_o antwerp_n and_o gaunt_n whither_o merchant_n come_v on_o purpose_n to_o buy_v it_o and_o send_v it_o into_o holland_n and_o there_o sell_v it_o at_o dear_a rate_n i_o meet_v with_o a_o linen_n draper_n of_o london_n when_o i_o be_v at_o gaunt_n and_o question_v he_o what_o vent_v there_o be_v for_o flax_n at_o london_n he_o tell_v i_o that_o before_o these_o troublesome_a time_n if_o i_o have_v have_v a_o very_a great_a quantity_n he_o can_v have_v help_v i_o to_o chapman_n to_o have_v buy_v it_o off_o at_o dear_a rate_n at_o london_n then_o usual_o they_o sell_v it_o at_o in_o flanders_n for_o he_o say_v he_o do_v believe_v there_o be_v not_o less_o than_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n worth_a of_o flax_n bring_v yearly_o into_o england_n from_o foreign_a part_n a_o great_a part_n whereof_o to_o his_o knowledge_n be_v send_v from_o london_n into_o lancashier_n there_o make_v into_o cloth_n and_o afterwards_o bring_v back_o in_o cloth_n and_o sell_v in_o london_n and_o if_o time_n grow_v peaceable_a again_o in_o england_n he_o tell_v i_o i_o need_v not_o doubt_v the_o vent_n of_o more_o flax_n at_o london_n then_o ever_o i_o will_v have_v to_o sell_v and_o two_o honest_a english_a merchant_n of_o my_o acquaintance_n do_v assure_v i_o that_o if_o i_o can_v not_o sell_v my_o flax_n at_o london_n to_o my_o content_n they_o will_v transport_v it_o for_o i_o into_o holland_n where_o i_o may_v fell_v it_o dear_a than_o they_o sell_v their_o flax_n in_o flanders_n for_o merchant_n usual_o send_v for_o flax_n out_o of_o flanders_n and_o sell_v it_o again_o in_o holland_n at_o dear_a rate_n than_o they_o pay_v for_o it_o there_o but_o if_o you_o find_v that_o these_o commodity_n thrive_v with_o you_o and_o you_o grow_v rich_a by_o they_o i_o will_v advise_v you_o to_o send_v for_o some_o workman_n out_o of_o flanders_n that_o understand_v the_o manufacture_n of_o linen_n cloth_n and_o make_v your_o flax_n into_o linen_n cloth_n you_o can_v choose_v but_o gain_n by_o it_o exceed_o when_o you_o be_v aforehand_o with_o the_o world_n if_o they_o live_v by_o it_o who_o fetch_v it_o first_o from_o london_n into_o lancashire_n by_o land_n be_v make_v in_o cloth_n recarrie_v it_o up_o and_o beside_o you_o shall_v do_v a_o charitable_a deed_n by_o bring_v in_o that_o manufacture_n into_o the_o kingdom_n for_o it_o keep_v a_fw-la very_o great_a number_n of_o poor_a woman_n and_o child_n at_o work_n in_o flanders_n and_o holland_n that_o otherwise_o will_v not_o have_v mean_n to_o live_v so_o by_o this_o way_n you_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o vent_v your_o flax_n and_o withal_o procure_v a_o public_a benefit_n to_o the_o kingdom_n the_o husbandry_n of_o turnip_n be_v as_o
