manufacture_n be_v to_o be_v consider_v on_o which_o chief_o depend_v both_o the_o wealth_n and_o prosperity_n of_o this_o kingdom_n for_o by_o the_o increase_n and_o encouragement_n thereof_o the_o subject_n be_v employ_v in_o honest_a and_o industrious_a calling_n maintain_v and_o preserve_v from_o want_n and_o those_o mischief_n which_o common_o attend_v idleness_n the_o people_n furnish_v at_o home_n with_o all_o thing_n both_o of_o necessity_n and_o pleasure_n and_o by_o the_o overplus_n procure_v from_o abroad_o what_o ever_o for_o use_n or_o delight_n be_v want_v the_o chief_a manufacture_n among_o we_o at_o this_o day_n be_v only_o woollen_a clothes_n woollen_a stuff_n of_o all_o sort_n stocking_n ribbanding_n and_o perhaps_o some_o few_o silk_n stuff_v and_o some_o other_o small_a thing_n scarce_o worth_a the_o name_n and_o these_o already_o name_v so_o decay_v and_o adulterate_v decay_v that_o they_o be_v almost_o out_o of_o esteem_n both_o at_o home_n and_o
