will_v tell_v you_o what_o i_o have_v hear_v and_o believe_v to_o be_v true_a the_o east-india_n company_n set_v themselves_o so_o entire_o to_o prosecure_v manufacturer_n and_o find_v the_o gentry_n of_o england_n so_o easy_a to_o be_v deceive_v and_o gull_v by_o they_o they_o slight_v all_o other_o trade_n in_o the_o indies_n and_o fix_v whole_o to_o that_o which_o be_v like_a to_o turn_v to_o

of_o the_o last_o ship_n that_o come_v to_o england_n have_v much_o great_a quantity_n of_o these_o good_n than_o the_o whole_a fleet_n of_o 12_o ship_n that_o come_v to_o holland_n and_o i_o

have_v a_o trade_n we_o must_v make_v our_o manufacture_n cheaper_o answer_n i_o think_v i_o shall_v understand_v the_o price_n of_o workmanship_n as_o well_o as_o this_o gentleman_n and_o i_o will_v venture_v to_o assert_v the_o quite_o contrary_a do_v but_o consider_v the_o price_n of_o provision_n in_o england_n and_o the_o goodness_n of_o our_o work_n and_o we_o shall_v see_v by_o examine_v

be_v it_o not_o reasonable_a the_o price_n of_o this_o sort_n of_o work_n shall_v answer_v the_o time_n they_o lose_v and_o how_o poor_o must_v family_n be_v maintain_v with_o such_o wage_n but_o

the_o public_a reap_v no_o advantage_n by_o home_n consumption_n answer_n consume_v be_v not_o a_o common_a way_n of_o get_v but_o we_o have_v a_o proverb_n a_o penny_n save_v be_v as_o good_a as_o
