be_v export_v till_o about_o the_o month_n of_o january_n 1692_o there_o be_v three_o vessel_n load_v with_o the_o say_a clay_n and_o riding_a at_o anchor_n in_o the_o river_n of_o thames_n and_o

and_o find_v it_o to_o be_v a_o very_a good_a sort_n of_o full_a clay_n upon_o which_o experiment_n they_o cause_v the_o say_a clay_n to_o be_v land_a and_o put_v into_o their_o majesty_n seller_n

of_o the_o same_o king_n and_o the_o officer_n be_v at_o liberty_n to_o prosecute_v upon_o which_o statute_n he_o please_v but_o not_o on_o both_o and_o though_o the_o forfeiture_n be_v so_o great_a

upon_o which_o experiment_n the_o say_v officer_n bring_v it_o on_o to_o a_o trial_n in_o hillary_n term_n 1692_o and_o notwithstand_v there_o be_v above_o twenty_o witness_n produce_v viva_fw-la

have_v the_o consequence_n of_o which_o will_v be_v very_o prejudicial_a not_o only_o in_o its_o self_n but_o also_o in_o the_o seizure_n of_o wool_n and_o though_o those_o officer_n be_v able_a to_o

time_n with_o much_o hazard_n cost_n and_o pain_n and_o though_o in_o reason_n i_o can_v expect_v myself_o to_o live_v and_o see_v its_o full_a effect_n yet_o i_o hope_v to_o die_v in_o the_o faith_n that_o other_o may_v live_v to_o see_v england_n again_o flourish_v and_o yet_o i_o will_v not_o omit_v any_o thing_n worthy_a of_o imitation_n though_o in_o a_o enemy_n and_o therefore_o will_v
