it_o will_v be_v contrary_a as_o we_o humble_o conceive_v to_o what_o be_v lay_v down_o as_o the_o foundation_n of_o the_o present_a treaty_n viz._n a_o mutual_a reciprocation_n and_o parity_n the_o duty_n on_o a_o english_a broad_a cloth_n import_v into_o france_n be_v in_o anno_fw-la 1632_o 6_o liver_n in_o anno_fw-la 1644_o it_o be_v raise_v to_o 9_o liver_n in_o anno_fw-la 1654._o to_o 30_o liver_n in_o anno_fw-la 1664_o to_o 40_o liver_n and_o in_o anno_fw-la 1667_o to_o 80_o liver_n a_o piece_n of_o serge_n in_o anno_fw-la 1632._o pay_v one_o liver_n in_o anno_fw-la 1644._o in_fw-la anno_fw-la 1654._o 5_o liver_n in_o anno_fw-la 1664_o 6_o liver_n and_o in_o anno_fw-la 1667_o 12_o liver_n 2._o though_o it_o may_v be_v possible_a that_o a_o reduction_n to_o 1664._o may_v somewhat_o augment_v that_o small_a consumption_n that_o now_o be_v and_o so_o a_o reduction_n to_o his_o majesty_n happy_a restoration_n or_o to_o anno_fw-la 1654._o somewhat_o more_o yet_o neither_o the_o one_o nor_o the_o other_o will_v so_o far_o enlarge_v the_o trade_n as_o to_o bear_v any_o proportion_n between_o the_o english_a and_o french_a manufacture_n and_o prevent_v the_o decay_n of_o the_o stock_n of_o the_o english_a nation_n by_o that_o trade_n 2._o as_o to_o the_o second_o a_o assurance_n that_o the_o english_a manufacture_n shall_v not_o be_v charge_v hereafter_o with_o new_a imposition_n or_o excise_n nor_o any_o defence_n make_v of_o their_o consumption_n we_o humble_o conceive_v this_o necessary_a because_o the_o french_a have_v from_o time_n to_o time_n raise_v the_o duty_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o instance_n before_o give_v though_o by_o the_o 3d_o article_n of_o the_o treaty_n of_o 1606_o the_o custom_n be_v to_o remain_v as_o then_o they_o stand_v and_o also_o because_o by_o a_o arrest_n of_o the_o french_a king_n a_o private_a agreement_n of_o the_o stocking-weaver_n and_o stocking-seller_n in_o paris_n that_o the_o one_o shall_v not_o sell_v nor_o the_o

the_o like_a may_v be_v practise_v in_o reference_n to_o other_o manufacture_n and_o will_v have_v the_o same_o effect_n such_o agreement_n so_o confirm_v and_o authorize_v be_v of_o equal_a force_n with_o a_o prohibition_n of_o the_o manufacture_n 3._o as_o to_o the_o three_o particular_a the_o render_v the_o english_a free_a from_o stranger_n custom_n in_o france_n to_o what_o may_v be_v object_v in_o reference_n to_o this_o be_v object_n 1._o that_o these_o be_v privilege_n grant_v to_o the_o burgher_n and_o freeman_n of_o particular_a city_n we_o answer_v answ_n that_o be_v it_o only_o city_n or_o town_n duty_n as_o it_o be_v in_o england_n in_o many_o corporation_n of_o scuvage_a parkage_n etc._n etc._n be_v very_o small_a and_o inconsiderable_a it_o be_v reciprocal_a but_o when_o it_o be_v a_o duty_n of_o custom_n due_a to_o the_o king_n of_o that_o importance_n it_o be_v of_o the_o same_o nature_n as_o the_o stranger_n custom_n in_o england_n which_o as_o the_o french_a receive_v a_o exemption_n from_o in_o all_o city_n and_o town_n of_o england_n so_o ought_v they_o to_o grant_v to_o the_o english_a the_o like_a exemption_n from_o in_o all_o city_n and_o town_n of_o france_n object_n 2._o if_o it_o shall_v be_v propose_v that_o the_o english_a shall_v have_v the_o like_a privilege_n as_o frenchman_n not_o free_a burgher_n of_o such_o city_n and_o town_n we_o reply_v answ_n that_o the_o french_a in_o england_n pay_v no_o other_o duty_n to_o his_o majesty_n if_o the_o stranger_n custom_n be_v remit_v than_o the_o free_a burgher_n of_o any_o city_n or_o town_n in_o england_n and_o that_o if_o this_o be_v not_o provide_v against_o the_o english_a may_v at_o pleasure_n on_o like_a pretence_n be_v exclude_v from_o all_o trade_n in_o france_n object_n 3._o if_o it_o be_v allege_v that_o the_o remit_v of_o these_o duty_n to_o the_o english_a will_v cause_v a_o general_a complaint_n from_o the_o free_a burgher_n of_o such_o city_n and_o town_n in_o france_n it_o may_v be_v answer_v answ_n that_o his_o majesty_n subject_n may_v as_o just_o complain_v if_o the_o stranger_n duty_n be_v remit_v to_o the_o subject_n of_o france_n we_o humble_o conceive_v to_o render_v thing_n equal_a on_o both_o side_n his_o majesty_n not_o take_v the_o say_a duty_n of_o french_a ship_n but_o once_o in_o one_o voyage_n though_o the_o vessel_n load_n and_o unload_v at_o divers_a port_n the_o french_a king_n shall_v grant_v the_o like_a in_o france_n in_o reference_n to_o the_o english_a ship_n which_o hitherto_o have_v not_o be_v do_v to_o the_o great_a prejudice_n and_o discouragement_n of_o the_o english_a navigation_n proposal_n viii_o the_o 8_o proposal_n to_o prevent_v confiscation_n of_o ship_n and_o good_n or_o payment_n of_o custom_n in_o case_n of_o a_o english_a ship_n be_v force_v into_o a_o french_a port_n and_o the_o master_n not_o give_v speedy_a notice_n to_o the_o governor_n of_o the_o say_a port_n this_o we_o humble_o propose_v because_o a_o english_a ship_n which_o put_v into_o haure_n the_o grace_n read_v for_o re●●●f_n in_o a_o storm_n be_v seize_v on_o upon_o pretence_n that_o the_o master_n ought_v to_o have_v give_v a_o account_n to_o the_o governor_n in_o three_o 〈…〉_o he_o have_v omit_v it_o be_v pretend_v a_o sufficient_a ground_n to_o confiscate_v ship_n and_o good_n and_o have_v not_o

france_n by_o stress_n of_o wether_n or_o otherwise_o the_o french_a have_v sometime_o force_v they_o to_o pay_v the_o custom_n and_o at_o other_o time_n to_o give_v security_n for_o the_o custom_n even_o when_o the_o ship_n have_v be_v bind_v to_o other_o of_o their_o own_o port_n proposal_n ix_o the_o 9th_o proposal_n that_o englishman_n may_v have_v the_o freedom_n of_o their_o own_o ship_n

ship_n this_o we_o humble_o conceive_v necessary_a because_o that_o in_o morlaix_n and_o other_o place_n of_o france_n several_a english_a vessel_n consign_v to_o merchant_n have_v be_v force_v notwithstanding_o propriety_n and_o charter-party_n to_o take_v in_o frenchman_n good_n equal_o and_o sometime_o preferable_o to_o their_o own_o and_o at_o other_o time_n have_v not_o be_v suffer_v to_o load_v their_o vessel_n till_o french_a vessel_n then_o in_o lade_n have_v be_v first_o load_v to_o the_o great_a disadvantage_n and_o discouragement_n of_o the_o english_a proposal_n xii_o the_o

because_o that_o former_o in_o many_o place_n of_o france_n extraordinary_a personal_a tax_n have_v be_v charge_v on_o the_o english_a and_o one_o man_n good_n seize_v to_o pay_v all_o the_o tax_n of_o the_o english_a in_o the_o say_a place_n proposal_n xiii_o the_o 13_o proposal_n that_o one_o english_a man_n may_v be_v a_o witness_n for_o another_o in_o all_o case_n where_o he_o be_v

of_o parliament_n and._n judicature_n of_o france_n we_o humble_o conceive_v of_o most_o absolute_a necessity_n for_o otherwise_o it_o will_v not_o be_v pleadable_a in_o any_o of_o their_o court_n of_o justice_n and_o for_o the_o english_a upon_o every_o dispute_n that_o may_v arise_v to_o be_v necessitate_v to_o attend_v the_o french_a king_n and_o his_o council_n at_o paris_n which_o be_v
