figure_n in_o the_o king_n exchequer_n where_o ship_n be_v the_o bulwark_n of_o the_o kingdom_n and_o where_o the_o flourish_n of_o trade_n be_v as_o much_o the_o interest_n of_o the_o king_n as_o of_o the_o people_n there_o can_v be_v no_o such_o cause_n of_o fear_n for_o what_o objection_n can_v any_o man_n make_v that_o his_o money_n in_o the_o bank_n may_v not_o be_v as_o well_o secure_v by_o a_o law_n as_o his_o property_n be_v or_o why_o he_o shall_v be_v more_o afraid_a of_o lose_v his_o money_n than_o his_o land_n or_o good_n interest_n be_v the_o rent_n of_o stock_n and_o be_v the_o same_o as_o the_o rent_n of_o land_n the_o first_o be_v the_o rent_n of_o the_o wrought_a or_o artificial_a stock_n the_o latter_a of_o the_o unwrought_a or_o natural_a stock_n interest_n be_v common_o reckon_v for_o money_n because_o the_o money_n borrow_v at_o interest_n be_v to_o be_v repay_v in_o money_n but_o this_o be_v a_o mistake_n for_o the_o interest_n be_v pay_v for_o stock_n for_o the_o money_n borrow_v be_v lay_v out_o to_o buy_v good_n or_o pay_v for_o they_o before_o buy_v no_o man_n take_v up_o money_n at_o interest_n to_o lay_v it_o by_o he_o and_o lose_v the_o interest_n of_o it_o one_o use_n of_o interest_n it_o be_v the_o rule_n by_o which_o the_o trader_n make_v up_o the_o account_n of_o profit_n and_o loss_n the_o merchant_n expect_v by_o deal_v to_o get_v more_o than_o interest_n by_o his_o good_n because_o of_o bad_a debt_n and_o other_o hazard_n which_o he_o run_v and_o therefore_o reckon_v all_o he_o get_v above_o inteterest_n be_v gain_n all_o under_o loss_n but_o if_o no_o more_o than_o interest_n neither_o profit_n nor_o loss_n another_o use_n of_o interest_n be_v it_o be_v the_o measure_n of_o the_o value_n of_o the_o rent_n of_o

of_o the_o country_n the_o difference_n of_o three_o year_n be_v allow_v because_o land_n be_v more_o certain_a than_o money_n or_o stock_n thus_o in_o holland_n where_o money_n be_v at_o three_o per._n cent._n by_o reckon_v how_o many_o time_n three_o be_v in_o a_o hundred_o pound_n which_o be_v thirty_o three_o and_o add_v three_o year_n more_o make_v thirty_o six_o year_n purchase_v the_o value_n of_o the_o land_n in_o holland_n and_o by_o the_o same_o rule_n interest_n be_v at_o six_o per_fw-la cent._n in_o england_n land_n be_v worth_a but_o twenty_o year_n purchase_v and_o in_o

be_v good_a of_o foreign_a country_n the_o trader_n have_v one_o share_n for_o his_o pain_n and_o the_o landlord_n the_o other_o for_o his_o rent_n so_o that_o by_o trade_n the_o inhabitant_n in_o
