now_o in_o force_n restrain_v the_o exportation_n of_o wool_n a_o discourse_n of_o harsh_a sound_n to_o my_o old_a english_a understanding_n i_o can_v not_o then_o refrain_v from_o offer_v such_o

the_o first_o place_n the_o reason_n allege_v for_o repeal_n those_o law_n so_o far_o as_o i_o can_v collect_v from_o the_o favourer_n of_o that_o opinion_n and_o then_o brief_o give_v my_o reason_n to_o the_o contrary_a modest_o submit_v myself_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o reader_n 1._o our_o store_n of_o wool_n say_v they_o be_v so_o great_a that_o we_o have_v sufficient_a both_o for_o ourselves_o and_o neighbour_n 2._o it_o be_v free_a and_o unrestrained_a exportation_n will_v occasion_v a_o great_a increase_n in_o its_o price_n which_o will_v sustain_v our_o droop_a rent_n and_o draw_v considerable_a sum_n of_o money_n from_o abroad_o for_o so_o desirable_a a_o commodity_n 3._o that_o though_o we_o use_v all_o care_n imaginable_a to_o prevent_v its_o exportation_n yet_o our_o neighbour_n by_o mean_n of_o our_o own_o people_n draw_v great_a quantity_n from_o we_o 4._o it_o be_v to_o small_a purpose_n to_o keep_v our_o wool_n at_o home_n for_o that_o ireland_n supply_v our_o neighbour_n therewith_o to_o a_o great_a degree_n 5._o this_o prohibition_n of_o wool_n be_v a_o new_a practice_n unknown_a to_o we_o till_o within_o these_o twenty_o year_n and_o yet_o before_o that_o time_n both_o wool_n and_o drapery_n yield_v the_o best_a rate_n for_o above_o 60_o year_n last_o pass_v to_o the_o first_o i_o answer_v 1._o that_o i_o conceive_v our_o yearly_a increase_n of_o wool_n be_v now_o no_o great_a than_o when_o the_o rate_n be_v double_a nay_o treble_a to_o what_o they_o now_o be_v and_o if_o so_o the_o fall_n and_o meanness_n of_o the_o price_n proceed_v pure_o from_o the_o loss_n of_o foreign_a market_n for_o our_o drapery_n and_o from_o our_o own_o forsake_v the_o wear_n of_o it_o and_o not_o from_o the_o quantity_n above_o what_o we_o have_v 30_o or_o 40_o year_n ago_o 2._o it_o be_v very_o manifest_a how_o the_o rate_n of_o wool_n these_o last_o 15_o or_o 16_o year_n have_v gradual_o fall_v from_o bad_a to_o worse_o and_o how_o as_o by_o degree_n we_o have_v increase_v in_o the_o wear_n of_o silk_n camlet_n and_o frowsie_a french_a drugget_n and_o as_o our_o neighbour_n especial_o the_o french_a have_v enlarge_v their_o woollen_a manufacture_n by_o mean_n of_o our_o wool_n which_o they_o mix_v with_o they_o just_o so_o have_v the_o rate_n of_o this_o commodity_n with_o we_o sink_v almost_o beyond_o belief_n 3._o that_o see_v we_o have_v a_o multitude_n of_o people_n who_o for_o want_v of_o employment_n want_v bread_n and_o that_o the_o price_n of_o wool_n here_o be_v so_o low_a as_o to_o tempt_v we_o to_o let_v out_o that_o commodity_n which_o the_o wisdom_n of_o this_o trade_n age_n have_v hitherto_o secure_v under_o public_a prohibition_n as_o be_v the_o prime_a fund_z of_o our_o trade_n and_o navigation_n and_o which_o be_v so_o necessary_a to_o our_o active_a neighbour_n that_o no_o law_n how_o penal_a soever_o have_v yet_o total_o debar_v they_o from_o it_o what_o do_v we_o else_o by_o such_o a_o design_n but_o declare_v that_o henceforth_o be_v not_o able_a to_o manage_v that_o manufacture_n we_o abandon_v all_o thought_n of_o a_o advantageous_a commerce_n necessitate_v our_o people_n to_o live_v on_o we_o or_o die_v at_o our_o door_n and_o surrender_v to_o our_o neighbour_n that_o manufacture_n for_o which_o we_o be_v once_o so_o notorious_a be_v not_o this_o at_o once_o to_o cast_v the_o child_n bread_n to_o stranger_n and_o to_o remain_v for_o ever_o without_o hope_n to_o maintain_v after_o such_o a_o dereliction_n any_o manufacture_n which_o our_o neighbour_n may_v have_v a_o mind_n to_o snatch_v from_o we_o 4._o if_o our_o neighbour_n can_v have_v wool_n as_o good_a to_o all_o intent_n and_o purpose_n and_o as_o plentiful_a and_o cheap_a from_o other_o country_n it_o may_v peradventure_o be_v advisable_v how_o far_o we_o ought_v to_o keep_v we_o at_o home_n but_o the_o case_n be_v otherways_o and_o they_o our_o rival_n be_v not_o able_a to_o carry_v on_o that_o manufacture_n effectual_o without_o it_o it_o seem_v a_o great_a mistake_n and_o dangerous_a to_o spare_v it_o on_o any_o term_n to_o the_o second_o reason_n that_o it_o will_v occasion_v the_o rate_n of_o wool_n to_o rise_v and_o thereby_o sustain_v our_o droop_a rent_n etc._n etc._n i_o answer_v 1._o the_o wear_n and_o use_v of_o silk_n camlet_n etc._n etc._n have_v so_o far_o supplant_v that_o of_o drapery_n in_o europe_n that_o we_o must_v never_o rational_o expect_v those_o rate_n for_o wool_n which_o be_v usual_o give_v 30_o of_o 40_o year_n ago_o 2._o if_o we_o find_v bad_a market_n for_o drapery_n now_o wool_n be_v cheap_a it_o be_v very_o improbable_a our_o neighbour_n will_v take_v so_o much_o wool_n from_o we_o as_o to_o raise_v the_o price_n thereof_o to_o that_o degree_n as_o may_v sustain_v our_o fall_a rent_n for_o the_o dear_a we_o fall_v they_o our_o wool_n the_o dear_a they_o must_v sell_v their_o drapery_n and_o consequent_o sell_v so_o much_o less_o or_o else_o it_o will_v be_v our_o shame_n or_o ill_a fortune_n that_o they_o shall_v vent_v much_o drapery_n make_v of_o dear_a wool_n and_o we_o vent_v little_a or_o none_o now_o wool_n be_v cheap_a 3._o the_o more_o market_n our_o neighbour_n supply_v with_o drapery_n by_o mean_n of_o our_o wool_n the_o less_o drapery_n we_o must_v export_v the_o reason_n be_v because_o there_o be_v a_o certain_a and_o determine_a quantity_n of_o cloth_n consume_v by_o the_o trade_n world_n whence_o it_o must_v necessary_o follow_v that_o so_o much_o wool_n as_o they_o receive_v from_o we_o so_o much_o less_o drapery_n we_o ourselves_o shall_v export_v and_o consequent_o the_o price_n of_o wool_n remain_v the_o same_o it_o be_v before_o those_o law_n be_v repeal_v
