person_n who_o the_o state_n shall_v pay_v to_o gather_v these_o tax_n and_o be_v accountable_a for_o they_o think_v it_o neither_o safe_a nor_o profitable_a for_o the_o state_n to_o farm_v they_o

keep_v the_o people_n more_o in_o awe_n 2._o because_o many_o of_o these_o revenue_n as_o the_o excise_n upon_o beer_n for_o example_n can_v not_o be_v fix_v and_o certain_a for_o sometime_o one_o town_n consume_v more_o one_o year_n than_o another_o so_o that_o there_o can_v be_v no_o measure_n take_v with_o farmer_n 3._o they_o represent_v that_o it_o be_v dangerous_a to_o trust_v in_o

of_o a_o quite_o contrary_a opinion_n do_v maintain_v that_o there_o be_v certain_a impost_n which_o ought_v to_o be_v farm_a out_o for_o so_o much_o a_o year_n add_v that_o the_o imposition_n be_v
