devoure but temperately to Feast And this of Cloth-working is known to be As numerous as full of Charity It clothes the naked feeds the hungry and A generall profit brings unto the Land The Picker Carder and the Spinner too The Weaver Fuller and the Dyer doe Relate to it though in a different kinde Like severall Nations to one power confin'd Yet from those various vains many do feed And are supply'd with succour in their need I fear I'm tedious Sir and may offend I'le therefore with the Companies wishes end May no intestine broyles disturbe your rest But Peace continue in the * * City
