hunger_n and_o fear_n of_o prison_n bring_v to_o we_o which_o we_o must_v entertain_v or_o have_v none_o and_o i_o think_v th●t_a lawyer_n have_v reason_n who_o be_v chide_v by_o the_o judge_n for_o often_o bring_v scandalous_a cause_n before_o he_o tell_v he_o they_o be_v the_o best_a he_o can_v get_v to_o be_v bring_v to_o he_o have_v the_o dutch_a virginia_n they_o will_v make_v it_o the_o fortress_n mart_n and_o magazine_n of_o all_o the_o west_n indies_n for_o as_o i_o at_o first_o intimate_v the_o river_n will_v secure_o harbour_v twenty_o thousand_o ship_n at_o once_o the_o country_n produce_v all_o thing_n necessary_a for_o those_o ship_n and_o the_o man_n that_o sail_v in_o they_o nothing_o want_v for_o the_o supply_n of_o war_n or_o peace_n but_o it_o be_v ever_o our_o misery_n not_o to_o take_v our_o aim_n the_o distance_n of_o a_o age._n but_o half_a that_o time_n to_o the_o make_v we_o and_o enrich_v this_o kingdom_n by_o our_o labour_n will_v not_o be_v require_v for_o i_o can_v with_o assurance_n affirm_v that_o if_o we_o have_v from_o hence_o resolute_a instruction_n and_o indulgent_a encouragement_n within_o seven_o year_n we_o shall_v not_o need_v the_o northern_a nor_o southern_a east_n country_n to_o supply_v we_o with_o silk_n flax_n hemp_n pitch_n tar_n iron_n mast_n timber_n and_o pot-ash_n for_o all_o of_o these_o but_o iron_n we_o want_v only_o skilful_a man_n to_o teach_v we_o to_o produce_v they_o the_o cheap_a and_o ready_a way_n but_o the_o make_n of_o iron_n will_v require_v able_a purse_n than_o we_o be_v yet_o master_n of_o yet_o in_o another_o paragraph_n i_o shall_v propose_v that_o which_o if_o grant_v to_o we_o will_v enable_v we_o of_o ourselves_o to_o accomplish_v this_o and_o other_o great_a concernment_n it_o must_v be_v confess_v that_o barbadoes_n send_v a_o better_a commodity_n into_o england_n than_o virginia_n yet_o do_v but_o withal_o it_o must_v be_v acknowledge_v that_o one_o ship_n from_o virginia_n bring_v more_o money_n to_o the_o crown_n than_o five_o ship_n of_o the_o same_o burden_n do_v from_o the_o barbados_n but_o have_v we_o ability_n or_o skill_n to_o set_v forward_o those_o staple_n commodity_n i_o mention_v of_o silk_n flax_n hemp_n pitch_n pot-ash_n and_o iron_n a_o few_o year_n will_v make_v we_o able_a to_o send_v more_o ship_n lade_v with_o these_o than_o now_o the_o barbados_n do_v with_o sugar_n among_o many_o other_o weighty_a reason_n why_o virginia_n have_v not_o all_o this_o while_n make_v any_o progression_n into_o staple_n commodity_n this_o be_v the_o chief_a that_o our_o governor_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o corruption_n of_o those_o time_n they_o live_v in_o lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o our_o wealth_n and_o industry_n on_o the_o vice_n of_o man_n for_o about_o the_o time_n of_o our_o first_o seat_v of_o the_o country_n do_v this_o vicious_a habit_n of_o take_v tobacco_n possess_v the_o english_a nation_n and_o from_o they_o have_v diffuse_v itself_o into_o most_o part_n of_o the_o world_n this_o i_o say_v be_v bring_v to_o we_o from_o spain_n at_o great_a price_n make_v our_o governor_n suppose_v great_a wealth_n may_v be_v raise_v to_o particular_n by_o this_o universal_a vice_n and_o indeed_o for_o many_o year_n they_o be_v not_o deceive_v till_o that_o increase_v in_o number_n and_o many_o other_o plantation_n follow_v the_o same_o design_n at_o last_o bring_v it_o as_o now_o it_o be_v to_o that_o lowness_n of_o price_n that_o the_o custom_n double_v the_o first_o purchase_n that_o be_v the_o merchant_n buy_v it_o for_o one_o penny_n the_o pound_n and_o we_o pay_v two_o penny_n for_o the_o custom_n of_o that_o which_o they_o be_v not_o please_v to_o take_v from_o we_o this_o be_v the_o first_o and_o fundamental_a hindrance_n that_o make_v the_o planter_n neglect_v all_o other_o accession_n to_o wealth_n and_o happiness_n and_o fix_v their_o hope_n only_o on_o this_o vicious_a weed_n of_o tobacco_n which_o at_o length_n have_v bring_v they_o to_o that_o extremity_n that_o they_o can_v neither_o handsome_o subsist_v with_o it_o nor_o without_o it_o another_o hindrance_n have_v be_v that_o there_o be_v never_o yet_o any_o public_a encouragement_n to_o assist_v the_o planter_n in_o those_o more_o chargeable_a undertake_n as_o iron-mine_n and_o ship_n another_o impediment_n and_o a_o important_a one_o too_o have_v be_v the_o dismembering_a of_o the_o colony_n by_o give_v away_o and_o erect_v divers_a principality_n out_o of_o it_o as_o maryland_n to_o my_o lord_n arundel_n and_o part_n of_o florida_n to_o my_o lord_n of_o arundel_n these_o grant_n will_v in_o the_o next_o age_n be_v find_v more_o disadvantageous_a to_o the_o crown_n than_o be_v perceptible_a in_o this_o and_o therefore_o i_o shall_v not_o touch_v it_o uncommand_v as_o to_o the_o politic_a part_n of_o it_o but_o as_o to_o the_o oeconomick_a i_o shall_v affirm_v that_o we_o can_v never_o make_v any_o

on_o our_o discovery_n who_o have_v in_o our_o precinct_n settle_v a_o trade_n of_o beaver_n with_o the_o indian_n amount_v to_o two_o hundred_o thousand_o skin_n a_o year_n and_o supply_v our_o enemy_n with_o ammunition_n and_o gun_n in_o great_a proportion_n than_o we_o have_v they_o ourselves_o but_o god_n be_v thank_v as_o yet_o they_o their_o town_n and_o trade_n be_v in_o the_o king_n power_n when_o ever_o he_o shall_v command_v they_o either_o to_o quit_v their_o usurpation_n or_o to_o acknowledge_v their_o subjection_n to_o he_o in_o those_o part_n another_o great_a impediment_n have_v be_v the_o confine_v the_o planter_n to_o trade_n only_o with_o the_o english_a this_o no_o good_a subject_n or_o englishman_n will_v oppose_v if_o it_o be_v find_v either_o beneficial_a to_o

shall_v be_v impoverish_v to_o enrich_v little_o more_o than_o forty_o merchant_n who_o be_v the_o only_a buyer_n of_o our_o tobacco_n give_v we_o what_o they_o please_v for_o it_o and_o after_o it_o

we_o course_n clothes_n to_o keep_v we_o from_o the_o extremity_n of_o heat_n and_o cold_a yet_o if_o these_o pressure_n of_o we_o do_v advance_v the_o custom_n or_o benefit_v the_o nation_n we_o shall_v not_o repine_v but_o that_o it_o do_v the_o contrary_a to_o both_o i_o shall_v easy_o evidence_n when_o command_v another_o hindrance_n have_v be_v the_o want_n of_o a_o public_a stock_n to_o

a_o discourse_n and_o view_n of_o virginia_n before_o i_o enter_v into_o the_o consideration_n of_o the_o advantage_n this_o kingdom_n of_o england_n have_v by_o the_o plantation_n in_o virginia_n i_o think_v it_o necessary_a to_o make_v a_o short_a description_n of_o the_o situation_n of_o it_o as_o to_o the_o climate_n and_o then_o tell_v what_o natural_a help_v it_o have_v to_o make_v it_o a_o glorious_a and_o flourish_a country_n and_o when_o this_o discourse_n shall_v produce_v a_o concession_n of_o the_o natural_a advantage_n it_o have_v above_o all_o other_o his_o majesty_n plantation_n i_o shall_v lay_v down_o the_o cause_n both_o intrinsic_a and_o accidental_a why_o it_o have_v not_o in_o all_o this_o suppose_a long_a tract_n of_o time_n produce_v those_o rich_a and_o staple_n commodity_n which_o i_o shall_v in_o this_o discourse_n affirm_v it_o be_v capable_a of_o and_o first_o for_o the_o climate_n it_o lie_v within_o the_o degree_n of_o 37._o and_o 42._o mariland_n include_v which_o by_o all_o be_v confess_v to_o be_v a_o situation_n capable_a of_o the_o diversity_n of_o all_o northern_a and_o southern_a commodity_n some_o drug_n and_o spice_n except_v which_o florida_n on_o who_o border_n we_o be_v new_o seat_v may_v also_o probable_o produce_v into_o the_o bay_n of_o virginia_n former_o call_v chesapeack_n bay_n run_v six_o eminent_a river_n none_o twenty_o mile_n distant_a from_o another_o three_o of_o which_o exceed_v the_o thames_n both_o in_o extent_n and_o progression_n of_o the_o tide_n these_o cause_n and_o continue_v the_o admire_a

those_o worm_n which_o endamage_v ship_n both_o in_o the_o western_a island_n of_o america_n and_o in_o the_o mediterraneansea_n and_o to_o avoid_v a_o large_a discourse_n of_o it_o i_o will_v here_o note_v it_o that_o our_o ship_n once_o past_o the_o land_n end_n be_v in_o no_o danger_n of_o pirate_n rock_n or_o lee-shore_n till_o they_o come_v to_o their_o port_n and_o few_o ship_n miscarry_v go_v to_o virginia_n then_o to_o any_o port_n at_o that_o distance_n in_o the_o world_n now_o for_o those_o thing_n which_o be_v natural_o in_o it_o they_o be_v these_o iron_n lead_v pitch_n tar_n mast_n timber_n for_o ship_n of_o the_o great_a magnitude_n and_o wood_n for_o pot-ash_n those_o other_o commodity_n which_o be_v produce_v by_o industry_n be_v flax_n hemp_n silk_n wheat_n barley_n

be_v of_o the_o same_o species_n with_o those_o from_o which_o they_o be_v derive_v to_o we_o from_o england_n the_o vicious_a ruinous_a plant_n of_o tobacco_n i_o will_v not_o name_v but_o that_o it_o bring_v more_o money_n to_o the_o crown_n than_o all_o the_o island_n in_o america_n beside_o now_o this_o be_v ascertain_v and_o confess_v that_o such_o staple_n commodity_n as_o iron_n silk_n flax_n hemp_n and_o pot-ash_n may_v be_v easy_o raise_v in_o virginia_n a_o high_a imputation_n will_v lie_v upon_o we_o why_o we_o have_v not_o all_o this_o time_n endeavour_v to_o evidence_n the_o truth_n and_o certainty_n of_o it_o to_o our_o own_o and_o the_o public_a advantage_n to_o this_o i_o will_v answer_v that_o the_o long_a time_n of_o seat_v of_o virginia_n be_v a_o general_a and_o popular_a error_n for_o though_o the_o first_o ship_n arrive_v in_o virginia_n in_o 1606._o yet_o by_o reason_n of_o many_o almost_o insuparable_a difficulty_n the_o increase_n of_o the_o number_n of_o planter_n be_v hardly_o perceptible_a for_o first_o that_o as_o all_o uncleared_a plantation_n be_v unwholesome_a then_o all_o they_o eat_v come_v from_o england_n and_o provide_v for_o those_o they_o never_o see_v nor_o care_v for_o be_v not_o likely_a to_o be_v very_o good_a then_o the_o indian_n quick_o grow_v jealous_a of_o they_o and_o force_v they_o to_o fight_v for_o every_o foot_n of_o ground_n they_o hold_v and_o in_o the_o year_n 1622._o in_o one_o night_n murder_v all_o but_o four_o or_o five_o hundred_o so_o that_o from_o that_o time_n we_o must_v begin_v the_o account_n of_o the_o plantation_n nor_o be_v this_o all_o for_o many_o year_n after_o this_o the_o danger_n and_o scarcity_n of_o the_o inhabitant_n be_v so_o fame_v through_o england_n that_o none_o but_o such_o as_o be_v force_v can_v be_v induce_v to_o plant_v or_o defend_v the_o place_n and_o of_o those_o that_o come_v there_o be_v not_o one_o woman_n to_o thirty_o man_n and_o populus_fw-la virorum_fw-la be_v of_o no_o long_a duration_n any_o where_o but_o since_o the_o year_n 1630._o the_o place_n begin_v to_o be_v of_o more_o plenty_n and_o security_n for_o the_o indian_n though_o not_o subdue_v be_v terrify_v to_o a_o suspension_n of_o arm_n the_o planter_n than_o first_o begin_v to_o fence_v their_o ground_n and_o plant_v corn_n the_o few_o cattle_n they_o have_v increase_v to_o such_o number_n that_o they_o be_v able_a to_o help_v their_o neighbour_n plantation_n and_o now_o i_o believe_v that_o there_o be_v no_o plantation_n of_o the_o english_a will_v more_o abound_v in_o cattle_n hog_n and_o all_o sort_n of_o fruit_n than_o virginia_n if_o they_o have_v but_o a_o mean_a price_n to_o quicken_v their_o industry_n and_o make_v their_o providence_n vigilant_a an_o other_o great_a imputation_n lie_v on_o the_o country_n that_o none_o but_o those_o of_o the_o mean_a quality_n and_o corrupte_v life_n go_v thither_o this_o to_o our_o maligner_n we_o will_v easy_o

be_v not_o all_o truth_n for_o man_n of_o as_o good_a family_n as_o any_o subject_n in_o england_n have_v reside_v there_o as_o the_o percys_n the_o barkleys_n the_o west_n the_o gauge_n the_o
