A77352	A discourse concerning Ireland and the different interests thereof, in answer to the Exon and Barnstaple petitions shewing, that if a law were enacted to prevent the exportation of woollen-manufactures from Ireland to foreign parts, what the consequences thereof would be both to England and Ireland.	Brewster, Francis, Sir, d. 1704.	1698 (1698)	Wing B4433; ESTC R232233	49,829	76

which_o time_n seventeen_o king_n and_o two_o queen_n govern_v successive_o in_o england_n for_o which_o reason_n they_o conclude_v that_o it_o must_v of_o necessity_n have_v cost_v the_o english_a

whole_a kingdom_n under_o subjection_n to_o the_o crown_n of_o england_n and_o run_v away_o with_o this_o as_o a_o undoubted_a maxim_n and_o truth_n they_o conclude_v that_o it_o have_v be_v much_o
