A70268	England's great happiness, or, A dialogue between Content and Complaint wherein is demonstrated that a great part of our complaints are causeless, and we have more wealth now, than ever we had at any time before the restauration of His Sacred Majestie / by a real and hearty lover of his king and countrey.	Houghton, John, 1640-1705.	1677 (1677)	Wing H2922; ESTC R15629	12,224	32

full_a power_n to_o enclose_v all_o the_o common-field_n in_o the_o kingdom_n but_o in_o my_o weak_a judgement_n there_o be_v several_a that_o do_v much_o encourage_v it_o especial_o when_o it_o be_v for_o the_o advantage_n of_o the_o whole_a witness_v the_o two_o first_o act_n for_o enclose_v the_o fen_n and_o the_o 4_o ja●_n 11._o for_o part_n of_o herefordshire_n cause_v by_o the_o good_a

encourage_v 15_o car._n 2.7_o run_v thus_o verbatim_o encourage_v the_o reason_n for_o the_o act_n call_v trade_n encourage_v forasmuch_o as_o the_o encourage_n of_o tillage_n ought_v to_o be_v in_o

more_o corn_n produce_v great_a number_n of_o people_n horse_n and_o cattle_n employ_v and_o other_o land_n also_o render_v more_o valuable_a how_o far_o the_o inducement_n and_o ground_n of_o act_n of_o parliament_n run_v i_o know_v not_o but_o they_o show_v their_o design_n and_o how_o this_o can_v be_v do_v better_a than_o by_o enclosure_n my_o ignorance_n will_v reach_v to_o but_o i_o have_v prove_v it_o most_o advantageous_a to_o the_o owner_n and_o i_o think_v wealth_n and_o a_o treble_a labour_n will_v quick_o increase_v people_n horse_n and_o other_o cattle_n the_o plenty_n whereof_o of_o necessity_n must_v quick_o make_v other_o land_n more_o valuable_a if_o leave_n be_v give_v all_o the_o barren_a land_n in_o england_n i_o suppose_v will_v soon_o be_v improve_v i_o believe_v you_o will_v be_v ashamed_a to_o urge_v the_o 25._o of_o hen._n 8._o and_o 13._o because_o the_o cheapness_n of_o our_o corn_n cattle_n wool_n pig_n goose_n hen_n chicken_n and_o egg_n be_v in_o a_o

the_o former_a age_n go_v the_o same_o way_n to_o work_v which_o a_o ingenious_a justice_n and_o another_o of_o my_o good_a friend_n who_o you_o well_o know_v have_v do_v we_o shall_v long_o ever_o

to_o fill_v up_o as_o high_a as_o they_o can_v or_o think_v necessary_a by_o this_o mean_v the_o rabble_n want_v material_n to_o refill_z unless_o they_o will_v bring_v it_o with_o they_o or_o dig_v one_o ditch_n to_o fill_v another_o but_o as_o what_o relate_v to_o riot_n trespass_n and_o other_o law_n trick_n the_o countryman_n i_o believe_v be_v wise_a enough_o compl._n this_o be_v a_o way_n indeed_o sure_o this_o will_v do_v or_o nothing_o but_o let_v they_o enclose_v or_o do_v in_o the_o field_n what_o they_o will_v what_o can_v you_o say_v for_o the_o multitude_n of_o tradesman_n advantage_n multitude_n of_o trader_n a_o great_a advantage_n cont._n say_v for_o they_o i_o have_v say_v enough_o in_o what_o i_o say_v just_a now_o of_o foreigner_n but_o however_o something_o more_o that_o man_n that_o get_v most_o money_n over_o and_o above_o his_o expense_n sure_o will_v be_v rich_a so_o likewise_o will_v that_o trade_n but_o suppose_v there_o be_v former_o twenty_o

and_o by_o underselling_a each_o other_o they_o clear_v each_o but_o four_o hundred_o pound_n a_o year_n this_o will_v make_v sixteen_o thousand_o pound_n i_o suppose_v this_o company_n do_v plain_o thrive_v but_o shall_v eighty_o get_v but_o three_o hundred_o pound_n each_o it_o will_v amount_v to_o four_o and_o twenty_o thousand_o pound_n beside_o the_o employment_n of_o four_o time_n the_o ship_n and_o labourer_n with_o the_o like_a increase_n of_o his_o majesty_n custom_n and_o this_o be_v the_o case_n of_o most_o of_o our_o old_a trade_n only_o beside_o the_o quantity_n of_o man_n the_o particular_n have_v most_o of_o they_o so_o much_o increase_v their_o quantity_n that_o with_o less_o profit_n they_o every_o year_n spend_v more_o and_o give_v their_o child_n better_a

that_o two_o or_o three_o year_n peace_n will_v make_v amends_o for_o all_o the_o calamity_n they_o have_v endure_v this_o war_n but_o the_o like_a industry_n in_o england_n add_v to_o a_o

parent_n never_o see_v forty_o shilling_n together_o of_o their_o own_o in_o their_o life_n do_v it_o not_o make_v the_o capon_n and_o custard_n go_v off_o at_o a_o good_a rate_n do_v it_o not_o
