most_o man_n will_v laugh_v to_o hear_v we_o suppose_v that_o any_o able_a to_o work_v as_o indeed_o most_o beggar_n be_v in_o one_o kind_n of_o measure_n or_o another_o shall_v be_v keep_v without_o earn_v any_o thing_n but_o we_o answer_v that_o if_o there_o be_v but_o a_o certain_a proportion_n of_o work_n to_o be_v do_v and_o that_o the_o same_o be_v already_o do_v by_o the_o not-beggar_n then_o to_o employ_v the_o beggar_n about_o it_o will_v but_o transfer_v the_o want_n from_o one_o hand_n to_o another_o nor_o can_v a_o learner_n work_v so_o cheap_a as_o a_o skilful_a practise_a artist_n can_v as_o for_o example_n a_o practise_a spinner_n shall_v spin_v a_o pound_n of_o wool_n worth_a two_o shilling_n for_o six_o penny_n but_o a_o learner_n undertake_v it_o for_o three_o penny_n shall_v make_v the_o wool_n indeed_o into_o yarn_n but_o not_o worth_a twelve_o penny_n 7._o this_o little_a hint_n be_v the_o model_n of_o the_o great_a work_n in_o the_o world_n which_o be_v the_o make_v england_n as_o considerable_a for_o trade_n as_o holland_n for_o there_o be_v but_o a_o certain_a proportion_n of_o trade_n in_o the_o world_n and_o holland_n be_v prepossess_v of_o the_o great_a part_n of_o it_o and_o be_v think_v to_o have_v more_o skill_n and_o experience_n to_o manage_v it_o wherefore_o to_o bring_v england_n into_o holland_n condition_n as_o to_o this_o particular_a be_v the_o same_o as_o to_o send_v all_o the_o beggar_n about_o london_n into_o the_o west-country_n to_o spin_v where_o they_o shall_v only_o spoil_v the_o clothier_n wool_n and_o beggar_n the_o present_a spinner_n at_o best_a but_o at_o worst_a put_v the_o whole_a trade_n of_o the_o country_n to_o a_o stand_n until_o the_o hollander_n be_v more_o ready_a for_o it_o have_v snap_v that_o with_o the_o rest_n 8._o my_o next_o observation_n be_v that_o but_o few_o be_v murder_v viz._n not_o above_o 86_o of_o the_o 22950._o which_o have_v die_v of_o other_o disease_n and_o casualty_n whereas_o in_o paris_n few_o night_n escape_v without_o their_o tragedy_n 9_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o we_o conceive_v to_o be_v two_o one_o be_v the_o government_n and_o guard_n of_o the_o city_n by_o citizen_n themselves_o and_o that_o alternate_o no_o man_n settle_v into_o a_o trade_n for_o that_o employment_n and_o the_o other_o be_v the_o natural_a and_o customary_a abhorrence_n of_o that_o in_o humane_a crime_n and_o all_o bloodshed_n by_o most_o englishman_n for_o of_o all_o that_o be_v execute_v few_o be_v for_o murder_n beside_o the_o great_a and_o frequent_a revolution_n and_o change_n of_o government_n since_o the_o year_n 1650_o have_v be_v with_o little_a bloodshed_n the_o usurper_n themselves_o have_v execute_v few_o in_o comparison_n upon_o the_o account_n of_o disturb_v their_o innovation_n 10._o in_o brief_a when_o any_o dead_a body_n be_v find_v in_o england_n no_o algebraist_n or_o vncipherer_n of_o letter_n can_v use_v more_o subtle_a supposition_n and_o variety_n of_o conjecture_n to_o find_v out_o the_o demonstration_n or_o cipher_n then_o every_o common_a unconcerned_a person_n do_v to_o find_v out_o the_o murderer_n and_o that_o for_o ever_o until_o it_o be_v do_v 11._o the_o lunatic_n be_v also_o but_o few_o viz._n 158_o in_o 229250._o though_o i_o fear_v many_o more_o than_o be_v set_v down_o in_o our_o bill_n few_o be_v enter_v for_o such_o but_o those_o who_o die_v at_o bedlam_n and_o there_o all_o seem_v to_o die_v of_o their_o lunacy_n who_o die_v lunatic_n for_o there_o be_v much_o difference_n in_o compute_v the_o number_n of_o lunatic_n that_o die_v though_o of_o fever_n and_o all_o other_o disease_n unto_o which_o lunacy_n be_v no_o supersedeas_fw-la and_o those_o that_o die_v by_o reason_n of_o their_o madness_n 12._o so_o that_o this_o casualty_n be_v so_o uncertain_a i_o shall_v not_o force_v myself_o to_o make_v any_o inference_n from_o the_o number_n and_o proportion_n we_o find_v in_o our_o bill_n concern_v it_o only_o i_o dare_v ensure_v any_o man_n at_o this_o present_a well_o in_o his_o wit_n for_o one_o in_o the_o thousand_o that_o he_o shall_v not_o die_v a_o lunatic_n in_o bedlam_n within_o these_o seven_o year_n because_o i_o find_v not_o above_o one_o in_o about_o one_o thousand_o five_o hundred_o have_v do_v so_o 13._o the_o like_a use_n may_v be_v make_v of_o the_o account_n of_o man_n that_o make_v away_o themselves_o who_o be_v another_o sort_n of_o madman_n that_o think_v to_o ease_v themselves_o of_o pain_n by_o leap_v into_o hell_n or_o else_o be_v yet_o more_o mad_a so_o as_o to_o think_v there_o be_v no_o such_o place_n or_o that_o man_n may_v go_v to_o rest_v by_o death_n though_o they_o die_v in_o self-murder_n the_o great_a sin_n 14._o we_o shall_v say_v nothing_o of_o the_o number_n of_o those_o that_o have_v be_v drown_v kill_v by_o fall_n from_o scaffold_n or_o by_o cart_n run_v over_o they_o etc._n etc._n because_o the_o same_o depend_v upon_o the_o casual_a trade_n and_o employment_n of_o man_n and_o upon_o matter_n which_o be_v but_o circumstantial_a to_o the_o season_n and_o region_n we_o live_v in_o and_o afford_v little_a of_o that_o science_n and_o certainty_n we_o aim_v at_o 15._o we_o find_v one_o casualty_n in_o our_o bill_n of_o which_o though_o there_o be_v daily_o talk_v there_o be_v little_a effect_n much_o like_o our_o abhorrence_n of_o toad_n and_o snake_n as_o most_o poisonous_a creature_n whereas_o few_o man_n dare_v say_v upon_o their_o own_o knowledge_n they_o ever_o find_v harm_n by_o either_o and_o this_o casualty_n be_v the_o french-pox_n get_v for_o the_o most_o part_n not_o so_o much_o by_o the_o intemperate_a use_n of_o venery_n which_o rather_o cause_v the_o gout_n as_o of_o many_o common_a woman_n 16._o i_o say_v the_o bill_n of_o mortality_n will_v take_v off_o these_o bar_n which_o keep_v some_o man_n within_o bound_n as_o to_o these_o extravagancy_n for_o in_o the_o aforementioned_a 229250_o we_o find_v not_o above_o 392_o to_o haved_z die_v of_o the_o pox._n now_o forasmuch_o as_o it_o be_v not_o good_a to_o let_v the_o world_n be_v lull_v into_o a_o security_n and_o belief_n of_o impunity_n by_o our_o bill_n which_o we_o intend_v shall_v not_o be_v only_o as_o death's-head_n to_o put_v man_n in_o mind_n of_o their_o mortality_n but_o also_o as_o mercurial_a statue_n to_o point_n out_o the_o most_o dangerous_a way_n that_o lead_v we_o into_o it_o and_o misery_n we_o shall_v therefore_o show_v that_o the_o pox_n be_v not_o as_o the_o toad_n and_o snake_n aforementioned_a but_o of_o a_o quite_o contrary_a nature_n together_o with_o the_o reason_n why_o it_o appear_v otherwise_o 17._o forasmuch_o as_o by_o the_o ordinary_a discourse_n of_o the_o world_n it_o seem_v a_o great_a part_n of_o man_n have_v at_o one_o time_n or_o other_o have_v some_o species_n of_o this_o disease_n i_o wonder_v why_o so_o few_o die_v of_o it_o especial_o because_o i_o can_v not_o take_v that_o to_o be_v so_o harmless_a where_o of_o so_o many_o complain_v very_o fierce_o upon_o inquiry_n i_o find_v that_o those_o who_o die_v of_o it_o out_o of_o the_o hospital_n especial_o that_o of_o king's-land_n and_o the_o lock_n in_o southwark_n be_v return_v of_o ulcer_n and_o sore_n and_o in_o brief_a i_o find_v that_o all_o mention_v to_o die_v of_o the_o french-pox_n be_v reture_v by_o the_o clerk_n of_o saint_n giles_n and_o saint_n martin_n in_o the_o field_n only_o in_o which_o place_n i_o understand_v that_o most_o of_o the_o vile_a and_o most_o miserable_a house_n of_o uncleanness_n be_v from_o whence_o i_o conclude_v that_o only_o hate_a person_n and_o such_o who_o very_a nose_n be_v eat_v of_o be_v report_v by_o the_o searcher_n to_o have_v die_v of_o this_o too_o frequent_a malady_n 18._o in_o the_o next_o place_n it_o shall_v be_v examine_v under_o what_o name_n or_o casualty_n such_o as_o die_v of_o these_o disease_n be_v bring_v in_o i_o say_v under_o the_o consumption_n forasmuch_o as_o all_o die_a thereof_o die_v so_o emaciate_v and_o lean_a their_o ulcer_n disappear_v upon_o death_n that_o the_o old-woman_n searcher_n after_o the_o mist_n of_o a_o cup_n of_o ale_n and_o the_o bribe_n of_o a_o two-groat_n fee_n instead_o of_o one_o give_v they_o can_v tell_v whether_o this_o emaciation_n or_o leanness_n be_v from_o a_o phthisis_fw-la or_o from_o a_o hectic_a fever_n atrophy_n etc._n etc._n or_o from_o a_o infection_n of_o the_o spermatick_a part_n which_o in_o length_n of_o time_n and_o in_o various_a disguise_n have_v at_o last_o vitiate_v the_o habit_n of_o the_o body_n and_o by_o disable_n the_o part_n to_o digest_v their_o nourishment_n bring_v they_o to_o the_o condition_n of_o leanness_n above_o mention_v 19_o my_o next_o observation_n be_v that_o of_o the_o rickets_o we_o find_v no_o mention_n among_o the_o
how_o much_o hay_n a_o acre_n of_o every_o sort_n of_o meadow_n will_v bear_v how_o many_o cattle_n the_o same_o weight_n of_o each_o sort_n of_o hay_n will_v feed_v and_o fatten_v what_o quantity_n

which_o particular_n i_o call_v the_o intrinsic_a value_n for_o there_o be_v also_o another_o value_n mere_o accidental_a or_o extrinsic_a consist_v of_o the_o cause_n why_o a_o parcel_n of_o land_n lie_v near_o a_o good_a market_n may_v be_v worth_a double_a to_o another_o parcel_n though_o but_o of_o the_o same_o intrinsic_a goodness_n which_o answer_v the_o query_n why_o land_n in_o the_o north_n of_o england_n be_v worth_a but_o sixteen_o year_n purchase_n and_o those_o of_o the_o west_n above_o eight_o and_o twenty_o it_o be_v no_o less_o necessary_a to_o know_v how_o many_o people_n there_o be_v of_o each_o sex_n state_n age_n religion_n trade_n rank_n or_o degree_n etc._n etc._n by_o the_o knowledge_n whereof_o trade_n and_o government_n may_v be_v make_v more_o certain_a and_o

impossible_a as_o for_o instance_n i_o have_v hear_v much_o complaint_n that_o trade_n be_v not_o set_v up_o in_o some_o of_o the_o south-western_a and_o north-western_a part_n of_o ireland_n there_o be_v so_o many_o excellent_a harbour_n for_o that_o purpose_n whereas_o in_o several_a of_o those_o place_n i_o have_v also_o hear_v that_o there_o be_v few_o other_o inhabitant_n but_o such_o as_o

true_o know_v which_o i_o have_v but_o guess_v at_o it_o will_v appear_v how_o small_a a_o part_n of_o the_o people_n work_n upon_o necessary_a labour_n and_o calling_n viz._n how_o many_o woman_n

by_o puzzle_v poor_a people_n with_o unintelligible_a notion_n in_o divinity_n and_o philosophy_n how_o many_o by_o persuade_v credulous_a delicate_a and_o litigious_a person_n that_o their_o body_n or_o estate_n be_v out_o of_o tune_n and_o in_o danger_n how_o many_o by_o fight_v as_o soldier_n how_o many_o by_o ministery_n of_o vice_n and_o sin_n how_o many_o by_o trade_n of_o mere_a pleasure_n or_o ornament_n and_o how_o many_o in_o a_o way_n of_o lazy_a attendance_n etc._n etc._n upon_o other_o and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n how_o few_o be_v employ_v in_o raise_v and_o work_v necessary_a
