to comfort the heart of our Natiue Commodities are put in obliuion Tobacco is imported in the liew of Spanish Royalls and Pistolets which causeth the prises the Hammers of the Mint to be weake and faint the Vrine they found to be of a cleere greenish colour proceeding from weakne● and the vse of too much white Wine sophisticated into Claret the Leggs full of dropsicke humors of consumption by the immoderate wearing of Veluets Silkes Cambricks and Lawnes engendring an ouerballancing or surfet of forreine commodities so that the Vitall Spirits of Bullion and Monly doth languish with a continuall Flux of exportation Considering the internal parts they found the liuer Money obstructed and the condinct pipes of Bullion and Moneys for importation stopt whereby the Hepaties could not minister good bloud with spirits sufficient to comfort the heart of our natiue commodities by a naturall heate for the gaule of Customes and impositions is ouerflown also depriuing the stomacke of his appetie hence the braine Exchange wanting sleepe is distempered whereby the body is ouertaken with a Trepidation or shaking shewing the very Symptomes of death Hereupon some Empricke being more forward then the learned Phisitians did deliuer his opinion that the said body by a surset or ouerballancing of forreine commodities is fallen into a consumption yet that nature is so strong that without Phisicke she will recouer againe her former health in progresse of time But herein he shall finde himselfe as much deceiued as the Spaniard was who being to go a iourney on foote resolued to go fasting conceiuing he should go the lighter but fainting by the way cryed out Aora hallo que las Tripas Ile●●anel vientre y no el vientpe las Tripas now do I find that the Guts do carry the Belly not the Belly the whereupon he vsed afterwards meate and 〈◊〉 for his sustenance vpon the like occasion and found on the contrary that the abuse thereof did 〈…〉 surfeits in the Body naturall euen as the abuse of money and exchanges doth in the Body of Traffique whereunto Phisicke must be ministred vpon necessitie according to the disease Another Practitioner in Phisicke was of opinion that the Flux of exportation should be diuerted and stopt by opening the Meridian Veyne suffering moneys to be exported at the pleasure of Merchants but vpon better consideration of the weaknes of the Body through the former profusion of Bloud he did alter the said opinion obseruing that Art giuen no facility when nature wanteth ability for to increase Manufactures and Fishing thereby to cu●● the said surfeit or ouerballancing Whereupon the learned Phisitians of experience hauing examined the causes of the diseases of this Body did resolue to apply and vse proper Remedies First That the continuall Flux of exportation of our moneys must be stopt by taking away the cause thereof which is Gaine had vpon moneys proceeding of the vndervaluation of our moneys in exchange and the inhauncing of moneys beyond the Seas Next That the obstruction of the Liuer Money and the conduict Pipes of Spanish Royalls and Germaine Dollers must be opened by the meanes of the Braine Exchange to minister good Bloud and Spirits to the Heart of our natiue Commodities to make a liuely Trade whereby Bullion brought to the Mint will cause the hammers as the 〈◊〉 of the Body of Trade to beate with temperate strokes by meanes whereof the distemperature of the Braine Exchange will be qualified the bitternes of the Gaule shall prouoke appetie when customes and impositions shall be moderated in the rates without diminution of substance the Sin●wes of the necessary ancient Statutes and Proclamations for the gouernment of Trade will be corroborated the Eye sight will be illuminated when the ouer much smoake of Tobacco is vanished away and the Complection will be liuely when Merchants shall be encouraged Wee shall not neede to vse Mechoacan or Indian Rootes against the Dropsie or Prohibitions against the ouermuch importation of forreine Commodities in the wearing of them which will enforce the like vse in other Countries for the humors of the Leggs will be euacuated and the convulsion of the face by our natiue Commodities truely made and vented will be extenuated for plenty of money shal aduance the quantity and price of them and abate the price of forreine Commodities whereby the Surfit or ouerballancing will be remedded if we preserue the good Bloud in the Body by the wisedome of the Braine Exchange where the seate of Iudgement is placed to increase the same for the comfort of the Heart our natiue Commodities which shall receiue thereby his tintered Chylus by his owne mouth and stomacke and the bloud full of Spirits shall fill all the veines and strengthen the Sinowes by supplying the want of moneys the easie course and recourse of whose Exchange finding rest by the Basis of true valuation shall supple the Ioynts and settle the bloud to serue all mens turnes whereby the said shaking of the body will cease the colour of the vrine will be rectified the too much vse of white Wine shall not be so much offensiue but in some measure reioyce the Heart and take away the melancholike disease of the mind which commonly procureth the disease of the Body Finally The Body will be cured of the said consumption and grow fat againe by a true and lawfull replection of the generall good of the King and Common-wealth through Gods blessings If this Allegory be truely considered we shall find that therein is a liuely expression of the diseases of the Politike Body of Trade and if a naturall Body had all the said diseases there is no other remedy nor way to to cure the same but after the maner here declared as the learned Phisitians of experience will confesse for the reasons are plaine and euident and without Phisicke it is impossible to cure it Will any man of iudgement thinke that the Flux will be stopt of course by the strength of nature so long as we minister such things which of themselues are laxitiue Or shall we expect that the Veines will be filled with Bloud when the Hepaties want their operation Or if Bloud did increase shall the Body receiue nutriment so long as there is a profusion of Bloud Or shall the Heart be comforted with the liuely spirits of the Bloud Shall the Braine receiue rest vnlesse she doe finde meanes to strengthen the Heart and that the Liuer the Heart and the 〈◊〉 may all in one Simpathy performe their functions The Stomacke cannot disgest euery thing prouoketh a surfet the Gaule by her ouerstowing hindereth appetite which bringeth a distemperature to the whole Body and filleth the same with crude humours engendring Dropsies and other diseases which at last turne into a consumption the Braine wanteth sleepe for the spirits are fatigated and troubled To make application hereof to the Body Politike of Trade we know that euen as in naturall Bodies the Heart which is the Center of the Body receiueth life
