of_o it_o and_o when_o other_o nation_n have_v it_o they_o bid_v it_o welcome_n and_o be_v unwilling_a to_o let_v it_o return_v again_o and_o therefore_o the_o safe_a course_n be_v to_o make_v it_o

sir_n i_o shall_v leave_v the_o application_n to_o yourself_o only_o i_o think_v i_o may_v say_v that_o the_o consumer_n of_o indian_a silk_n be_v much_o as_o profitable_a to_o the_o kingdom_n as_o

of_o the_o kingdom_n fail_v and_o their_o country_n be_v dispeople_v by_o death_n or_o necessitate_v the_o inhabitant_n to_o flock_n to_o other_o place_n where_o they_o can_v get_v a_o livelihood_n

18._o if_o you_o please_v thorough_o to_o consider_v the_o management_n of_o this_o east-india_n trade_n you_o will_v be_v force_v to_o acknowledge_v that_o have_v we_o not_o send_v indian_a linen_n

of_o these_o have_v alarm_v our_o forefather_n yea_o and_o have_v have_v some_o influence_n on_o ourselves_o of_o late_a i_o shall_v make_v at_o present_a choice_n only_o of_o two_o instance_n out_o

of_o their_o number_n and_o poverty_n they_o have_v secure_v they_o in_o their_o trade_n and_o that_o much_o to_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o turkey_n merchant_n and_o though_o their_o number_n at_o

for_o almost_o nothing_o and_o want_v neither_o fire_n nor_o clothing_n while_o two_o penny_n in_o rice_n will_v sustain_v a_o family_n of_o four_o or_o five_o for_o a_o week_n be_v very_o hard_a
