already_o build_v so_o that_o if_o it_o be_v thorough_o believe_v that_o mankind_n do_v natural_o increase_v this_o miracle_n of_o the_o great_a increase_n of_o house_n will_v cease_v it_o be_v therefore_o necessary_a to_o show_v that_o man_n do_v natural_o increase_v this_o may_v be_v sufficient_o prove_v by_o sacred_a history_n that_o the_o world_n be_v first_o people_v by_o the_o increase_n from_o adam_n and_o eve_n and_o after_o the_o deluge_n repeople_v by_o noah_n and_o his_o son_n shem_n ham_n and_o japhet_n that_o the_o jew_n begin_v from_o the_o single_a stock_n of_o abraham_n by_o isaac_n and_o so_o from_o jacob_n and_o when_o moses_n number_v they_o which_o be_v not_o long_a distance_n of_o time_n be_v compute_v to_o be_v about_o two_o hundred_o and_o sixty_o year_n from_o jacob_n they_o be_v above_o six_o hundred_o thousand_o fight_a man_n reckon_v only_o from_o twenty_o year_n old_a and_o upward_a beside_o woman_n and_o child_n and_o when_o number_v by_o david_n which_o be_v about_o four_o hundred_o and_o fifty_o year_n after_o they_o be_v grow_v a_o very_a great_a nation_n be_v thirteen_o hundred_o thousand_o fight_a man_n of_o judah_n and_o israel_n but_o the_o late_a lord_n chief_a justice_n hales_n in_o his_o discourse_n on_o this_o subject_n be_v not_o content_v to_o rely_v whole_o on_o argument_n from_o authority_n of_o of_o holy_a writ_n and_o therefore_o take_v other_o topic_n to_o confirm_v the_o relation_n of_o moses_n concern_v the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n and_o the_o people_n of_o it_o by_o a_o natural_a increase_n i._o from_o the_o novity_n of_o history_n that_o no_o authentic_a history_n be_v old_a than_o four_o thousand_o year_n and_o none_o so_o old_a as_o moses_n of_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o world_n ii_o from_o the_o chronological_a account_n of_o time_n that_o the_o assyrian_a egyptian_a and_o grecian_a account_n be_v to_o be_v find_v out_o in_o what_o year_n of_o the_o world_n they_o begin_v iii_o from_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o ancient_a kingdom_n that_o rome_n be_v build_v by_o romulus_n in_o the_o seven_o olympiad_n the_o assyrian_a monarchy_n begin_v by_o cyrus_n in_o 55_o olympiad_n and_o the_o grecian_a by_o alexander_n in_o 111._o iv._o from_o the_o first_o invention_n of_o art_n that_o the_o time_n of_o the_o first_o invention_n of_o husbandry_n and_o make_n of_o wine_n be_v as_o well_o know_v as_o the_o late_a invention_n of_o gunpowder_n and_o print_n v._o from_o the_o beginning_n of_o religion_n that_o the_o time_n of_o the_o inauguration_n of_o the_o heathen_a deity_n be_v know_v as_o when_o that_o jupiter_n bacchus_n ceres_n and_o aesculapius_n and_o the_o rest_n of_o they_o be_v but_o man_n of_o great_a renown_n and_o for_o their_o good_a deed_n after_o their_o death_n worship_v as_o well_o as_o when_o moses_n our_o saviour_n and_o mahomet_n be_v bear_v vi_o from_o the_o decay_n of_o humave_a nature_n but_o how_o far_o that_o may_v be_v true_a i_o leave_v to_o further_a inquiry_n vii_o from_o the_o beginning_n of_o the_o patres_fw-la familias_fw-la or_o the_o first_o planter_n of_o the_o continent_n and_o island_n of_o the_o world_n that_o helen_n give_v denomination_n to_o the_o grecian_n call_v hellenista_n pelasigus_n to_o the_o pelasgi_n latinus_n to_o the_o latin_n and_o the_o place_n call_v latium_n italus_n to_o the_o italian_n and_o italy_n be_v as_o much_o to_o be_v believe_v as_o that_o the_o english_a give_v name_n to_o new_a england_n in_o america_n and_o the_o name_n of_o the_o town_n there_o london_n and_o new_a york_n viii_o from_o the_o gradual_a increase_n of_o mankind_n that_o consider_v the_o time_n of_o his_o first_o procreation_n which_o be_v agree_v to_o be_v about_o 15_o or_o 16_o year_n to_o the_o time_n he_o give_v over_o which_o be_v about_o sixty_o it_o can_v be_v otherwise_o believe_v but_o that_o in_o the_o space_n of_o five_o and_o forty_o year_n he_o must_v produce_v a_o numerous_a offspring_n and_o it_o be_v no_o wonder_n among_o we_o for_o a_o person_n to_o live_v to_o see_v some_o hundred_o descend_v from_o his_o loin_n afterward_o he_o come_v to_o a_o particular_a observation_n of_o the_o increase_n of_o england_n by_o compare_v the_o present_a state_n of_o it_o with_o the_o survey_n set_v down_o in_o the_o doomsday-book_n and_o make_v a_o instance_n in_o gloucester-shire_n by_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o that_o county_n since_o that_o time_n be_v great_o increase_v and_o last_o of_o all_o he_o argue_v the_o increase_n of_o london_n from_o the_o bill_n of_o mortality_n these_o be_v the_o argument_n of_o the_o late_a lord_n chief_a justice_n hales_n to_o prove_v that_o mankind_n natural_o increase_v of_o which_o he_o discourse_v at_o large_a in_o his_o book_n of_o the_o origination_n of_o mankind_n and_o therein_o answer_v all_o the_o objection_n to_o the_o contrary_n and_o because_o these_o two_o last_o argument_n from_o the_o survey_n of_o the_o doomsday-book_n and_o bill_n of_o mortality_n carry_v with_o they_o the_o great_a force_n for_o they_o best_o discover_v the_o matter_n of_o fact_n as_o to_o our_o own_o nation_n i_o have_v therefore_o make_v it_o my_o business_n to_o make_v a_o scrutiny_n into_o the_o truth_n of_o they_o as_o to_o the_o first_o it_o be_v easy_a to_o make_v it_o appear_v that_o there_o be_v thirty_o time_n more_o people_n in_o england_n than_o they_o be_v in_o william_n the_o conqueror_n time_n when_o the_o survey_n be_v take_v and_o as_o to_o the_o latter_a i_o shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o discourse_v of_o at_o large_a hereafter_o and_o if_o it_o be_v necessary_a to_o use_v any_o further_a argument_n for_o the_o proof_n of_o this_o matter_n they_o will_v plain_o appear_v by_o compare_v ancient_a history_n with_o modern_a in_o the_o description_n they_o give_v of_o the_o country_n as_o to_o the_o great_a wood_n the_o many_o little_a government_n and_o the_o manner_n of_o the_o people_n live_v without_o art_n but_o not_o to_o wander_v over_o many_o country_n and_o among_o several_a historian_n i_o will_v only_o take_v the_o short_a description_n that_o caesar_n give_v of_o our_o own_o to_o show_v how_o it_o differ_v from_o what_o it_o now_o be_v he_o say_v that_o the_o inner_a part_n of_o britan●y_n be_v inhabit_v by_o such_o as_o memory_n record_v to_o be_v bear_v in_o the_o island_n and_o the_o maritime_a coast_n by_o such_o as_o come_v out_o of_o belgia_n either_o to_o make_v incursion_n or_o invasion_n and_o after_o the_o war_n be_v end_v they_o continue_v in_o the_o possession_n they_o have_v gain_v and_o be_v call_v by_o the_o name_n of_o the_o city_n from_o whence_o they_o come_v it_o be_v true_a he_o say_v the_o country_n be_v very_o populous_a and_o well_o inhabit_v with_o house_n like_v unto_o they_o in_o gallia_n but_o that_o must_v be_v understand_v as_o other_o country_n of_o europe_n be_v then_o it_o appear_v that_o in_o england_n there_o be_v many_o government_n and_o little_a colony_n of_o people_n for_o he_o reckon_v four_o king_n in_o the_o county_n of_o kent_n beside_o some_o little_a state_n and_o he_o say_v most_o of_o the_o inland_a people_n sow_v no_o corn_n but_o live_v on_o milk_n and_o flesh_n clothe_v with_o skin_n and_o have_v their_o face_n paint_v with_o a_o blue_a colour_n to_o the_o end_n they_o may_v seem_v more_o terrible_a in_o fight_n the_o britan_n town_n he_o say_v be_v a_o place_n ditch_v about_o to_o make_v a_o shelter_n for_o themselves_o and_o cattle_n and_o their_o manner_n of_o fight_v be_v by_o make_v sudden_a excursion_n out_o of_o the_o wood_n and_o then_o retire_v into_o they_o for_o shelter_v all_o which_o description_n show_v the_o country_n be_v not_o so_o populous_a as_o now_o for_o be_v there_o be_v great_a wood_n there_o be_v not_o room_n for_o pasture_n or_o corn_n to_o feed_v mankind_n beside_o they_o be_v a_o shelter_n for_o beast_n of_o prey_n which_o man_n as_o he_o increase_v do_v every_o where_o destroy_v and_o suffer_v no_o flesh-eater_n to_o live_v but_o himself_o except_o the_o dog_n and_o cat_n which_o he_o make_v tame_a for_o his_o use_n the_o lion_n wolf_n and_o the_o bear_n be_v not_o to_o be_v find_v in_o a_o populous_a country_n and_o it_o be_v the_o first_o business_n of_o all_o the_o planter_n in_o america_n to_o destroy_v the_o wild_a beast_n and_o the_o wood_n to_o make_v room_n for_o themselves_o to_o plant_v in_o and_o the_o reason_n probable_o of_o those_o roman_a causway_n that_o we_o find_v in_o england_n be_v to_o make_v road_n through_o great_a wood_n to_o the_o several_a roman_a colony_n though_o at_o this_o time_n we_o find_v they_o in_o open_a champaign_n country_n for_o have_v the_o country_n be_v so_o then_o they_o will_v certain_o have_v make_v they_o strait_o than_o we_o now_o find_v they_o the_o many_o little_a
