manum_fw-la fricat_fw-la and_o as_o i_o hope_v the_o english_a company_n may_v have_v reason_n before_o the_o determination_n of_o the_o ensue_a session_n to_o thank_v the_o king_n and_o parliament_n they_o will_v at_o the_o same_o time_n be_v please_v to_o remember_v that_o they_o owe_v we_o a_o day_n in_o harvest_n that_o be_v some_o seasonable_a piece_n of_o friendship_n now_o if_o the_o ensue_a parliament_n do_v as_o i_o believe_v they_o will_v take_v the_o east-india_n company_n into_o their_o care_n whether_o out_o of_o a_o particular_a regard_n to_o the_o say_a company_n or_o with_o respect_n to_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o whole_a nation_n or_o out_o of_o emulation_n from_o a_o mix_v consideration_n of_o both_o i_o shall_v have_v infinite_a satisfaction_n to_o find_v that_o we_o be_v so_o far_o useful_a to_o our_o neighbour_n as_o to_o let_v they_o see_v that_o to_o be_v their_o interest_n now_o which_o for_o some_o year_n past_a they_o at_o least_o seem_v to_o have_v overlook_v till_o we_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o it_o and_o my_o hope_n be_v that_o if_o emulation_n will_v once_o enter_v within_o the_o door_n of_o that_o noble_a assembly_n they_o will_v raise_v their_o thought_n upon_o the_o very_a wing_n of_o emulation_n and_o take_v the_o right_a sow_n by_o the_o lugg_n that_o be_v cast_v their_o eye_n about_o they_o and_o point_n at_o object_n worthy_a of_o such_o noble_a effort_n as_o they_o only_o be_v able_a to_o put_v in_o practice_n by_o curb_v the_o enemy_n of_o britain_n and_o put_v some_o stop_n to_o the_o career_n and_o overgrow_a greatness_n of_o its_o rival_n in_o trade_n of_o who_o affection_n or_o friendship_n england_n can_v be_v no_o long_o secure_v than_o they_o be_v sure_a of_o gain_v by_o england_n whereas_o we_o poor_a mortal_n must_v at_o all_o time_n look_v upon_o ourselves_o as_o in_o the_o state_n of_o matrimony_n for_o better_a for_o worse_o so_o if_o we_o be_v not_o allow_v some_o reasonable_a measure_n of_o due_a benevolence_n that_o essential_a part_n of_o conjugal_a duty_n the_o world_n will_v certain_o look_v upon_o we_o as_o the_o more_o excusable_a if_o at_o some_o time_n or_o other_o we_o shall_v venture_v to_o peep_v abroad_o object_n but_o still_o these_o grumbler_n you_o say_v do_v urge_v that_o this_o new_a company_n will_v steal_v vast_a quantity_n of_o good_n both_o by_o sea_n &_o land_n into_o england_n and_o over-stock_n the_o market_n there_o with_o indian_a good_n to_o be_v sell_v at_o under-rate_n to_o the_o apparent_a loss_n of_o the_o english_a east-india_n and_o african_a company_n this_o be_v true_o a_o very_a wide_a supposition_n yet_o suppose_v it_o all_o to_o be_v true_a as_o i_o believe_v it_o can_v pray_v wherein_o be_v england_n hurt_v by_o it_o for_o over_o all_o england_n there_o must_v be_v a_o vast_a many_o more_o buyer_n than_o seller_n of_o any_o one_o particular_a commodity_n and_o as_o of_o two_o evil_n the_o least_o be_v to_o be_v choose_v so_o of_o two_o interfer_v interest_n the_o most_o public_a and_o universal_a good_a of_o these_o two_o be_v always_o preferable_a to_o the_o other_o then_o beyond_o dispute_n the_o buyer_n of_o such_o particular_a commodity_n who_o i_o take_v to_o be_v the_o body_n of_o the_o nation_n will_v find_v it_o their_o interest_n at_o all_o time_n to_o beat_v down_o the_o market-price_n especial_o of_o foreign_a good_n otherwise_o our_o forefather_n of_o both_o nation_n be_v very_o much_o oversee_v to_o make_v so_o many_o law_n which_o stand_v yet_o unrepealed_a against_o the_o forestall_v of_o market_n and_o the_o engross_a of_o commodity_n into_o few_o hand_n so_o that_o if_o all_o restriction_n limitation_n and_o prohibition_n upon_o trade_n between_o both_o nation_n be_v whole_o abrogate_a the_o great_a and_o natural_a end_n of_o trade_n will_v in_o my_o humble_a opinion_n be_v more_o universal_o and_o much_o better_o answer_v now_o upon_o sum_v up_o the_o evidence_n on_o both_o side_n i_o find_v we_o must_v reckon_v upon_o many_o enemy_n beyond_o sea_n but_o i_o hope_v i_o may_v modest_o conclude_v that_o after_o a_o true_a scrutiny_n be_v make_v this_o act_n will_v meet_v with_o no_o enemy_n within_o the_o isle_n of_o britain_n but_o who_o may_v be_v comprehend_v in_o one_o or_o other_o of_o two_o sort_n and_o these_o two_o some_o say_v very_o near_o relate_v the_o first_o be_v such_o who_o may_v seem_o grumble_v at_o this_o act_n for_o no_o other_o reason_n but_o to_o make_v a_o scaling-ladder_n of_o it_o to_o a_o wall_n which_o without_o it_o they_o be_v
