trader_n who_o affirm_v that_o the_o far_a north_n they_o go_v on_o the_o coast_n of_o that_o land_n that_o they_o meet_v with_o more_o green_a herb_n and_o grass_n than_o they_o do_v to_o the_o

at_o the_o same_o time_n blow_v hard_o because_o it_o be_v usual_a in_o all_o other_o climate_n when_o wind_n happen_v to_o disperse_v the_o fog_n so_o that_o if_o it_o shall_v so_o happen_v one_o may_v lie_v by_o or_o make_v little_a way_n till_o wind_n come_v that_o one_o may_v see_v before_o they_o the_o three_o be_v the_o solution_n of_o a_o doubt_n that_o most_o man_n have_v fancy_v

under_o the_o pole_n of_o the_o world_n if_o land_n or_o ice_n do_v not_o hinder_v with_o this_o supposition_n that_o one_o must_v know_v where_o the_o pole_n magnetical_a be_v to_o allow_v the_o

the_o possibility_n of_o a_o passage_n be_v now_o imprint_v in_o my_o mind_n and_o inclination_n i_o do_v intend_v to_o show_v the_o reason_n in_o short_a that_o induce_v i_o to_o undertake_v the_o say_a voyage_n the_o first_o be_v that_o the_o king_n who_o god_n preserve_v shall_v rcap_n the_o honour_n and_o glory_n thereof_o and_o his_o subject_n the_o profit_n second_o there_o be_v no_o

his_o majesty_n for_o the_o prosecution_n of_o the_o design_n and_o be_v advise_v to_o it_o by_o a_o great_a many_o of_o the_o best_a merchant_n of_o the_o city_n of_o london_n where_o after_o divers_a consultation_n with_o they_o and_o the_o reason_n and_o argument_n beforementioned_a be_v debate_v it_o be_v by_o many_o thought_n practicable_a and_o by_o more_o thought_n profitable_a to_o the_o nation_n the_o particular_n to_o relate_v will_v swell_v into_o a_o considerable_a volume_n the_o three_o reason_n be_v peculiar_a to_o myself_o though_o when_o know_v to_o the_o use_n and_o benefit_n of_o all_o mankind_n which_o be_v that_o have_v for_o some_o year_n pass_v frame_v a_o hypothesis_n of_o the_o motion_n of_o the_o two_o magnetical_a pole_n for_o two_o such_o there_o be_v

superficies_n of_o the_o terrestrial_a globe_n i_o have_v find_v out_o their_o motion_n very_o near_o and_o thereby_o the_o inclination_n of_o the_o magnetical_a needle_n under_o the_o horizon_n in_o all_o latitude_n and_o all_o longitude_n and_o variation_n of_o the_o compass_n may_v be_v find_v in_o any_o place_n in_o this_o world_n without_o assistance_n of_o any_o other_o luminary_n but_o not_o be_v so_o full_o satisfy_v as_o i_o may_v be_v if_o i_o can_v come_v so_o near_o the_o pole_n as_o be_v suppose_v it_o prompt_v my_o inclination_n as_o far_o as_o any_o other_o argument_n whatever_o to_o attempt_v this_o voyage_n so_o have_v all_o these_o reason_n that_o there_o be_v a_o passage_n and_o reason_n for_o i_o to_o unertake_v it_o i_o advance_v the_o first_o step_n to_o it_o be_v i_o draw_v a_o polar_a draught_n wherein_o i_o trace_v all_o those_o navigator_n that_o have_v attempt_v the_o north-east_n which_o i_o present_v to_o his_o majesty_n and_o royal_a

use_v to_o sail_v northward_o and_o if_o think_v by_o all_o feasable_a his_o majesty_n be_v gracious_o please_v to_o grant_v i_o the_o speedwell_n frigate_n to_o be_v man_v and_o victual_v at_o his_o royal_a charge_n with_o all_o other_o appurtenance_n thereunto_o belong_v but_o because_o in_o all_o attempt_v of_o this_o nature_n it_o be_v not_o convenient_a to_o venture_v one_o ship_n alone_o for_o the_o many_o accident_n that_o be_v incident_a to_o a_o single_a ship_n in_o a_o enterprise_n of_o this_o nature_n therefore_o his_o royal_a highness_n the_o duke_n of_o york_n the_o

be_v as_o well_o perform_v as_o in_o any_o ship_n that_o ever_o sail_v on_o the_o sea_n thus_o be_v fit_v i_o be_v to_o satisfy_v most_o people_n the_o advantage_n to_o our_o nation_n that_o will_v accrue_v if_o there_o be_v a_o passage_n the_o first_o advantage_n that_o i_o purpose_v be_v that_o on_o the_o coast_n of_o tartary_n it_o be_v a_o cold_a climate_n we_o may_v vend_n our_o english_a cloth_n which_o now_o be_v grow_v a_o drug_n and_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o they_o wear_v cloth_n which_o be_v send_v they_o from_o russia_n and_o moscovia_n which_o before_o it_o arrive_v at_o their_o hand_n must_v needs_o be_v very_o dear_a in_o the_o price_n so_o if_o one_o can_v come_v on_o their_o coast_n one_o may_v vend_n a_o great_a deal_n more_o and_o abundance_n cheaper_o the_o second_o advantage_n as_o will_v have_v be_v that_o in_o six_o week_n one_o might_n have_v sail_v to_o japan_n which_o in_o the_o other_o way_n be_v nine_o month_n and_o the_o passage_n that_o way_n be_v as_o hazardous_a and_o perilous_a as_o this_o will_v have_v be_v if_o there_o have_v be_v any_o passage_n by_o the_o north-east_n for_o by_o the_o south_n way_n all_o the_o way_n betwixt_o bantam_n and_o japan_n be_v a_o innumerable_a company_n of_o sand_n sholes_n and_o island_n where_o many_o ship_n be_v yearly_o lose_v and_o all_o that_o way_n one_o must_v turn_v up_o to_o windward_n and_o be_v in_o perpetual_a fear_n of_o the_o hollander_n who_o if_o we_o meet_v they_o do_v their_o utmost_a endeavour_n to_o destroy_v we_o then_o if_o there_o have_v be_v a_o north-east_n passage_n and_o that_o one_o may_v sail_v in_o such_o a_o short_a time_n to_o japan_n the_o king_n may_v send_v out_o man_n of_o war_n to_o japan_n and_o force_v they_o to_o trade_n which_o the_o other_o way_n be_v not_o to_o be_v do_v because_o they_o can_v carry_v provision_n for_o so_o long_a time_n beside_o the_o certain_a disease_n that_o be_v incident_a to_o ship_n that_o have_v many_o man_n in_o
