A44078	Humble proposals for the relief, encouragement, security and happiness of the loyal, couragious seamen of England, in their lives and payment, in the service of our Most Gracious King William, and the defence of these nations humbly presented to the two most Honourable Houses, the Lords and Commons of England, in Parliament assembled / by a faithful subject of His Majesty, and servant to the Parliament and nation, and the seamen of England, in order for safety and security of all aforesaid, W. Hodges ; to which is added, a dialogue concerning the art of ticket-buying, in a discourse between Honesty, Poverty, Cruelty and Villany, concerning that mystery of iniquity, and ruin of the loyal seamen.	Hodges, William, Sir, 1645?-1714.	1695 (1695)	Wing H2329; ESTC R2277	51,833	63

my_o part_n i_o say_v according_a to_o the_o money_n raise_v there_o can_v never_o have_v be_v better_a pay_n for_o the_o seaman_n in_o the_o world_n and_o indeed_o i_o will_v not_o have_v the_o seaman_n of_o england_n say_v just_o that_o god_n and_o the_o king_n send_v good_a meat_n but_o the_o devil_n send_v they_o cook_n that_o spoil_v it_o half_o in_o dress_v but_o in_o short_a i_o can_v see_v how_o the_o nation_n in_o the_o general_n can_v answer_v the_o seamen_n be_v leave_v to_o ruin_n for_o first_o as_o i_o say_v it_o be_v against_o grace_n against_o the_o gracious_a law_n of_o christ_n not_o to_o do_v to_o they_o as_o we_o will_v other_o shall_v do_v to_o we_o which_o be_v teach_v the_o child_n in_o their_o catechism_n 2._o it_o be_v against_o the_o gracious_a providence_n of_o god_n to_o these_o nation_n who_o do_v by_o a_o miracle_n send_v over_o our_o gracious_a king_n william_n to_o be_v a_o mean_n to_o secure_v our_o religion_n liberty_n and_o property_n and_o if_o the_o nation_n who_o enjoy_v all_o these_o in_o peace_n at_o home_n shall_v let_v the_o seaman_n be_v ruin_v and_o lose_v all_o together_o and_o their_o life_n into_o the_o bargain_n i_o be_o afraid_a christ_n will_v tell_v we_o another_o word_n in_o our_o ear_n that_o the_o scripture_n shall_v not_o fail_v and_o the_o same_o measure_n man_n mete_v shall_v be_v mete_v to_o they_o again_o and_o so_o much_o to_o their_o be_v manage_v contrary_a to_o grace_n 2._o contrary_n to_o reason_n for_o reason_n tell_v we_o other_o age_n encourage_v their_o seaman_n and_o pay_v they_o on_o shore_n and_o other_o nation_n do_v so_o now_o and_o reason_n may_v tell_v those_o who_o have_v understand_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o pay_v on_o board_n that_o the_o seamen_n family_n and_o relation_n have_v not_o enjoy_v the_o benefit_n of_o little_a more_o than_o half_a their_o pay_n to_o their_o familie_n comfort_n 3._o it_o be_v contrary_a to_o common_a sense_n to_o think_v that_o if_o seaman_n do_v usual_o die_v great_a part_n where_o they_o be_v keep_v 2_o or_o 3_o year_n on_o board_n that_o they_o shall_v have_v any_o policy_n to_o keep_v they_o until_o they_o die_v rather_o than_o to_o pay_v they_o off_o to_o recruit_v their_o health_n and_o life_n and_o indeed_o who_o can_v be_v ever_o imagine_v to_o come_v free_o into_o that_o service_n where_o nothing_o but_o death_n can_v part_v again_o and_o then_o the_o widow_n deny_v their_o money_n ofttimes_o at_o last_o and_o beside_o the_o loss_n of_o the_o seamen_n life_n there_o be_v extraordinary_a charge_n to_o the_o nation_n and_o no_o benefit_n to_o the_o public_a but_o it_o may_v be_v the_o commander_n that_o have_v abuse_v the_o seaman_n all_o the_o war_n can_v not_o get_v more_o and_o will_v want_v a_o ship_n to_o get_v money_n in_o and_o so_o may_v want_v bread_n while_o our_o brave_a commander_n will_v have_v man_n enough_o but_o those_o who_o have_v drive_v away_o the_o seaman_n from_o their_o ship_n and_o can_v have_v a_o supply_n by_o turn_v over_o man_n from_o other_o ship_n these_o may_v be_v at_o a_o loss_n for_o man_n next_o year_n but_o my_o skill_n in_o sea_n affair_n be_v too_o small_a do_v it_o but_o attain_v to_o the_o height_n of_o my_o faithulness_n to_o his_o majesty_n and_o love_n to_o my_o native_a country_n i_o will_v if_o the_o lord_n assist_v i_o with_o life_n and_o health_n write_v such_o a_o history_n of_o the_o knavery_n folly_n cowardice_n treachery_n ruin_n and_o destruction_n of_o this_o war_n in_o the_o sea-affair_n the_o land_n will_v admire_v at_o and_o will_v write_v every_o line_n to_o the_o best_a of_o my_o judgement_n what_o will_v be_v find_v true_a not_o only_o in_o another_o age_n where_o they_o will_v speak_v plain_o how_o his_o majesty_n and_o the_o parliament_n and_o nation_n and_o merchant_n be_v cheat_v and_o abuse_v but_o i_o will_v write_v what_o i_o believe_v will_v be_v find_v true_a in_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n where_o all_o cloak_n will_v be_v throw_v off_o and_o than_o it_o will_v be_v know_v that_o god_n do_v not_o send_v mankind_n into_o the_o world_n to_o be_v like_o fish_n the_o great_a one_o to_o devour_v the_o little_a one_o and_o i_o bless_v the_o lord_n who_o keep_v i_o from_o be_v one_o of_o the_o devourer_n of_o the_o age_n for_o i_o have_v have_v a_o opportunity_n with_o ease_n to_o be_v a_o monster_n when_o i_o lay_v out_o a_o hundred_o pound_v a_o week_n or_o two_o in_o seamen_n pay_n if_o i_o have_v buy_v at_o half_a profit_n or_o twelve_o shilling_n in_o the_o pound_n profit_n as_o some_o monster_n do_v i_o shall_v have_v double_v my_o money_n so_o often_o to_o have_v be_v able_a to_o have_v swallow_v up_o 3_o or_o 4_o seamen_n pay_n for_o a_o breakfast_n beside_o what_o i_o have_v for_o dinner_n and_o supper_n and_o then_o i_o shall_v never_o have_v say_v a_o word_n of_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o seaman_n but_o shall_v have_v be_v force_v to_o have_v keep_v all_o counsel_n if_o the_o king_n have_v be_v cheat_v of_o a_o quarter_n of_o his_o money_n and_o the_o seaman_n of_o above_o half_a their_o pay_n but_o i_o presume_v it_o will_v be_v well_o to_o look_v back_o to_o the_o most_o happy_a state_n of_o our_o ship_n of_o war_n when_o we_o do_v most_o effectual_o beat_v our_o enemy_n and_o encourage_v our_o seaman_n and_o see_v if_o we_o do_v not_o find_v the_o neglect_n of_o their_o method_n have_v be_v the_o loss_n of_o half_a our_o seaman_n and_o many_o of_o our_o ship_n and_o second_o whether_o their_o way_n be_v not_o to_o go_v out_o in_o the_o summer_n and_o take_v all_o opportunity_n to_o sight_n and_o destroy_v their_o enemy_n and_o come_v in_o again_o with_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o fleet_n and_o pay_v off_o the_o seaman_n and_o save_v their_o life_n and_o pay_n whether_o if_o this_o have_v be_v do_v the_o seaman_n will_v not_o have_v be_v encourage_v to_o come_v free_o into_o the_o king_n service_n as_o in_o other_o age_n as_o into_o a_o place_n where_o there_o be_v money_n and_o liberty_n and_o release_v and_o not_o perpetual_a bondage_n and_o if_o at_o last_o discharge_v by_o reason_n of_o sickness_n and_o have_v ticket_n sign_v by_o all_o the_o sign_v officer_n for_o the_o same_o to_o be_v deprive_v otherwise_o cheat_v public_o of_o their_o money_n to_o the_o shame_n of_o the_o pay_n and_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o discharge_v and_o whether_o any_o can_v now_o on_o the_o last_o term_n be_v safe_a to_o serve_v their_o king_n and_o country_n and_o it_o may_v be_v question_v whether_o it_o be_v not_o a_o shameful_a thing_n when_o poor_a seaman_n have_v have_v their_o pay_n receive_v by_o false_a power_n they_o shall_v be_v deny_v the_o sight_n of_o the_o ship_n be_v book_n to_o see_v who_o receive_v it_o and_o therefore_o whether_o also_o this_o and_o the_o deny_v they_o otherwise_o the_o knowledge_n of_o their_o case_n be_v not_o a_o unjust_a and_o unreasonable_a thing_n to_o let_v poor_a creature_n be_v cheat_v and_o ruin_v and_o hide_v it_o from_o they_o and_o what_o advantage_n it_o be_v to_o the_o government_n to_o let_v their_o poor_a seaman_n be_v so_o manage_v beside_o the_o king_n be_v be_v at_o extraordinary_a charge_n to_o pay_v they_o so_o far_o from_o london_n and_o the_o city_n deprive_v of_o the_o benefit_n of_o take_v their_o money_n as_o in_o other_o age_n wherein_o the_o city_n of_o london_n be_v not_o use_v to_o be_v so_o slight_v neither_o the_o seaman_n so_o ruin_v but_o i_o shall_v presume_v to_o say_v more_o in_o the_o body_n of_o my_o book_n for_o whoever_o please_v to_o read_v it_o at_o their_o leisure_n what_o my_o thought_n be_v and_o if_o the_o honourable_a house_n pardon_v i_o i_o shall_v not_o need_n much_o to_o trouble_v myself_o with_o the_o offence_n any_o other_o may_v take_v at_o it_o for_o i_o write_v for_o good_a and_o not_o to_o please_v but_o to_o hinder_v cheat_v the_o king_n and_o ruine_v the_o seaman_n and_o not_o to_o flatter_v those_o that_o will_v have_v it_o all_o smuggle_v up_o in_o silence_n which_o make_v i_o think_v of_o one_o late_o that_o because_o he_o can_v not_o find_v any_o thing_n false_a in_o my_o book_n have_v this_o supposition_n and_o that_o be_v that_o he_o suppose_v if_o i_o have_v represent_v so_o much_o in_o france_n the_o french_a king_n will_v have_v hang_v i_o now_o to_o that_o be_v only_o a_o supposition_n i_o will_v answer_v it_o with_o other_o supposition_n as_o 1._o i_o must_v have_v be_v a_o fool_n or_o a_o knave_n to_o have_v write_v it_o if_o i_o do_v not_o consult_v before_o i_o write_v it_o whether_o i_o can_v with_o a_o good_a conscience_n have_v suffer_v death_n for_o the_o same_o and_o if_o

will_v be_v too_o short_a to_o expect_v a_o real_a blessing_n and_o comfortable_a encouragement_n as_o we_o may_v wish_v but_o that_o the_o seaman_n will_v be_v so_o much_o opprese_v and_o the_o ship_n ruin_v and_o spoil_a more_o and_o more_o until_o there_o be_v some_o outward_a reformation_n at_o least_o if_o not_o a_o true_a and_o sound_a reformation_n of_o life_n and_o manner_n and_o if_o the_o general_a instruction_n print_v and_o give_v to_o the_o captain_n and_o lieutenant_n of_o ship_n by_o the_o admiralty_n be_v mind_v aright_o it_o will_v mend_v many_o thing_n and_o therefore_o deserve_v to_o be_v inquire_v into_o in_o draw_v up_o the_o method_n of_o the_o well-government_n of_o our_o ship_n and_o man_n and_o the_o first_o paragraph_n of_o it_o be_v that_o god_n be_v due_o worship_v and_o that_o twice_o a_o day_n and_o all_o profaneness_n drunkenness_n swear_v and_o curse_v be_v discountenance_v and_o punish_v and_o the_o commander_n that_o allow_v it_o turn_v out_o and_o we_o shall_v meet_v the_o lord_n by_o repentance_n both_o by_o sea_n and_o land_n and_o cry_v to_o the_o lord_n that_o he_o will_v meet_v we_o with_o his_o mercy_n that_o we_o may_v by_o righteousness_n be_v a_o exalt_a nation_n and_o not_o for_o our_o sin_n be_v a_o ruin_a people_n and_o therefore_o 59_o it_o be_v well_o if_o every_o ship_n in_o england_n that_o carry_v but_o ten_o man_n be_v bind_v to_o carry_v that_o excellent_a book_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n doctrine_n the_o book_n of_o homily_n to_o read_v 2_o homily_n every_o sunday_n and_o it_o have_v the_o 39_o article_n bind_v up_o with_o it_o that_o all_o seafaring_a man_n may_v see_v the_o excellent_a doctrine_n of_o the_o old_a church_n of_o england_n to_o be_v for_o sound_a piety_n and_o holiness_n and_o that_o it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o profaneness_n of_o this_o age_n that_o it_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o the_o fundamental_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n abhor_v and_o as_o it_o be_v say_v of_o old_a of_o some_o that_o know_v not_o joseph_n so_o it_o may_v be_v say_v of_o the_o great_a wickedness_n of_o this_o age_n that_o it_o be_v from_o such_o as_o know_v not_o god_n neither_o do_v they_o true_o know_v and_o believe_v and_o practice_n that_o true_a fundamental_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n and_o it_o be_v well_o if_o the_o reverend_a bishop_n will_v consult_v the_o great_a need_n there_o be_v of_o such_o law_n as_o may_v in_o some_o measure_n at_o least_o bring_v man_n to_o as_o near_o a_o conformity_n to_o the_o substantial_a fundamental_a holiness_n sobriety_n charity_n justice_n and_o all_o christian_n fundamental_a duty_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n that_o be_v contain_v in_o so_o holy_a a_o doctrine_n 60._o and_o that_o every_o ship_n that_o do_v carry_v 120_o man_n or_o more_o do_v carry_v a_o able_a sober_a minister_n to_o instruct_v the_o seaman_n in_o their_o duty_n towards_o god_n and_o to_o reprove_v the_o vice_n of_o any_o one_o in_o the_o ship_n and_o by_o their_o doctrine_n and_o conversation_n to_o show_v to_o they_o that_o the_o fundamental_a doctrine_n of_o the_o church_n of_o england_n be_v for_o the_o real_a service_n of_o god_n and_o holiness_n and_o against_o all_o sin_n and_o that_o they_o that_o profess_v the_o doctrine_n and_o live_v in_o wickedness_n be_v false_a pretender_n to_o so_o holy_a doctrine_n 61._o and_o therefore_o that_o excellent_a act_n against_o curse_v and_o swear_v if_o well_o execute_v will_v be_v a_o good_a beginning_n and_o a_o good_a help_n towards_o a_o moral_a reformation_n so_o if_o the_o great_a debauchery_n of_o this_o age_n can_v be_v suppress_v it_o will_v be_v a_o good_a help_n towards_o man_n come_n to_o consider_v of_o a_o future_a state_n and_o to_o think_v that_o whatever_o they_o be_v themselves_o at_o present_a yet_o mankind_n be_v create_v to_o live_v to_o the_o glory_n of_o god_n and_o to_o honour_v he_o and_o not_o to_o live_v like_o beast_n and_o worse_o than_o beast_n and_o the_o more_o excellent_a the_o fundamental_a doctrine_n of_o christianity_n be_v in_o any_o church_n or_o nation_n the_o great_a the_o condemnation_n of_o those_o must_v be_v that_o do_v sin_n against_o the_o light_n of_o the_o same_o and_o will_v not_o regard_v to_o walk_v according_a unto_o it_o and_o now_o have_v say_v this_o i_o will_v return_v again_o to_o another_o encouragement_n i_o think_v there_o be_v great_a need_n of_o although_o the_o seaman_n in_o all_o merchant_n ship_n that_o go_v well_o and_o come_v well_o in_o the_o merchant_n service_n pay_v something_o towards_o the_o same_o and_o that_o be_v 62._o that_o all_o fleet_n of_o merchant_n ship_n shall_v as_o much_o as_o possible_a keep_v company_n and_o stand_v by_o one_o the_o other_o except_o much_o overpower_v and_o for_o want_v of_o this_o there_o be_v 6_o or_o 7_o ship_n take_v out_o of_o 12_o in_o one_o fleet_n by_o 2_o privateer_n therefore_o those_o ship_n that_o will_v not_o fight_v the_o commander_n ought_v to_o be_v make_v public_a example_n 63._o and_o those_o that_o fight_v stout_o as_o brave_a englishman_n to_o be_v encourage_v and_o prefer_v 64._o and_o that_o those_o seaman_n that_o lose_v their_o life_n or_o limb_n in_o merchant_n ship_n shall_v be_v encourage_v and_o have_v bounty-mony_n as_o in_o his_o majesty_n service_n they_o that_o be_v wound_v or_o kill_v there_o have_v but_o now_o i_o will_v not_o be_v mistake_v to_o think_v that_o his_o majesty_n shall_v pay_v it_o although_o if_o a_o merchant_n ship_n be_v lose_v it_o may_v fall_v out_o that_o his_o majesty_n may_v lose_v 4000_o l_o custom_n and_o be_v it_o so_o they_o do_v fight_v and_o save_v the_o ship_n and_o good_n if_o there_o be_v 20_o kill_v and_o 10_o wound_v if_o his_o majesty_n pay_v each_o of_o they_o or_o their_o family_n 20_o l_o it_o be_v 200_o l_o and_o his_o majesty_n will_v save_v 3600_o l_o by_o the_o save_a the_o ship_n at_o last_o and_o the_o merchant_n it_o may_v be_v 30000_o l_o by_o the_o bargain_n also_o and_o therefore_o it_o will_v be_v of_o great_a use_n to_o the_o king_n and_o to_o the_o merchant_n and_o to_o the_o nation_n in_o general_n to_o save_v our_o ship_n as_o much_o as_o possible_a and_o ruin_v our_o enemy_n as_o much_o as_o possible_a and_o encourage_v our_o seaman_n and_o master_n to_o fight_v to_o save_v the_o ship_n as_o much_o as_o possible_a but_o i_o have_v often_o wonder_v that_o any_o merchant_n shall_v be_v so_o barbarous_a or_o master_n so_o uncharitable_a as_o not_o to_o give_v the_o seman_n family_n one_o penny_n of_o eucouragement_n who_o lay_v down_o their_o life_n and_o save_v their_o ship_n and_o sometime_o i_o have_v hear_v of_o some_o that_o have_v be_v force_v to_o go_v to_o law_n for_o their_o wage_n after_o the_o ship_n be_v save_v and_o as_o i_o remember_v a_o customer_n of_o i_o be_v force_v to_o pay_v the_o chirurgeon_n 3_o or_o 4_o l_o to_o cure_v he_o of_o his_o wound_n now_o i_o do_v look_v on_o this_o as_o barbarous_a and_o i_o do_v say_v in_o this_o respect_n the_o service_n of_o his_o majesty_n be_v much_o better_a than_o the_o merchantman_n and_o will_v be_v in_o many_o other_o also_o if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o fault_n of_o officer_n and_o officer_n of_o divers_a sort_n but_o this_o by_o the_o way_n for_o i_o think_v we_o shall_v be_v the_o most_o happy_a people_n under_o the_o face_n of_o heaven_n if_o it_o be_v not_o for_o the_o sin_n and_o folly_n and_o bribery_n and_o knavery_n and_o villainy_n of_o the_o age_n we_o live_v in_o whereby_o man_n be_v ruin_v and_o plague_v and_o afflict_a more_o than_o ever_o in_o several_a kind_n both_o in_o man_n of_o war_n and_o merchant_n ship_n and_o the_o king_n and_o country_n lose_v by_o the_o same_o at_o last_o many_o seaman_n serve_v as_o be_v to_o be_v fear_v other_o nation_n by_o be_v so_o much_o discourage_v in_o their_o own_o but_o i_o leave_v that_o and_o will_v to_o god_n that_o all_o will_v indeed_o leave_v it_o in_o good_a earnest_n and_o set_v themselves_o to_o study_v to_o serve_v god_n and_o his_o majesty_n and_o the_o common_a good_a of_o all_o these_o nation_n and_o in_o order_n to_o it_o i_o think_v this_o be_v one_o to_o encourage_v all_o seaman_n as_o much_o as_o possible_a to_o preserve_v our_o ship_n and_o one_o way_n be_v that_o as_o i_o say_v whoever_o lose_v their_o limb_n or_o life_n in_o defend_v a_o merchant_n ship_n shall_v have_v pension_n or_o bounty-mony_n and_o i_o suppose_v that_o if_o there_o be_v a_o law_n make_v that_o every_o one_o shall_v be_v so_o reward_v every_o seaman_n will_v be_v more_o willing_a to_o venture_v their_o life_n to_o save_v their_o ship_n and_o the_o very_a seaman_n in_o merchant_n ship_n
