time_n to_o the_o joy_n of_o our_o heart_n iii_o how_o we_o may_v keep_v the_o say_a money_n when_o we_o have_v it_o and_o not_o have_v it_o melt_v down_o or_o carry_v away_o iv_o how_o we_o may_v call_v in_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o pounds-worth_n of_o crack_v and_o break_v money_n and_o have_v new_o coin_v without_o any_o loss_n or_o charge_n v._o how_o to_o have_v plenty_n of_o silver_n

so_o we_o can_v but_o keep_v it_o among_o ourselves_o and_o the_o reason_n be_v as_o follow_v viz._n i._o it_o may_v be_v observe_v by_o all_o that_o receive_v money_n for_o their_o majesty_n or_o for_o themselves_o either_o from_o the_o goldsmith_n or_o in_o way_n of_o trade_n that_o the_o most_o of_o the_o money_n that_o we_o receive_v be_v old_a money_n some_o break_a and_o a_o great_a deal_n clip_v and_o some_o half_n wear_v out_o very_o seldom_o our_o milled_a money_n come_v to_o hand_n in_o payment_n that_o we_o receive_v and_o if_o any_o will_v take_v the_o pain_n to_o weigh_v 10_o l._n of_o milled_a money_n with_o 15_o l._n of_o the_o old_a that_o 10_o l._n of_o milled_a money_n shall_v weigh_v down_o the_o 15_o l._n of_o the_o old_a and_o that_o 100_o l._n of_o milled_a money_n shall_v weigh_v down_o 150_o l._n of_o the_o old_a if_o take_v as_o it_o be_v receive_v but_o sometime_o 4_o l._n of_o milled_a money_n shall_v weigh_v down_o 7_o l._n of_o the_o old_a and_o there_o be_v so_o many_o clipper_n continual_o a_o clip_n of_o our_o old_a money_n it_o will_v be_v worse_o and_o worse_o every_o year_n and_o there_o be_v so_o many_o goldsmith_n or_o silver-wire-drawer_n or_o other_o concern_v in_o melt_v down_o out_o new-money_n and_o so_o many_o outlandish_a man_n concern_v in_o the_o buy_n up_o and_o carry_v away_o of_o our_o old_a milled_a money_n we_o be_v like_a to_o have_v less_o and_o less_o of_o it_o for_o time_n to_o come_v if_o some_o way_n be_v not_o find_v out_o for_o to_o prevent_v it_o and_o while_o it_o be_v so_o weighty_a and_o at_o no_o high_a price_n no_o law_n can_v hinder_v its_o be_v melt_v down_o or_o carry_v away_o except_o angel_n will_v be_v at_o the_o trouble_n to_o execute_v they_o for_o man_n that_o melt_v it_o down_o can_v do_v it_o and_o none_o see_v they_o and_o they_o that_o carry_v it_o away_o can_v hide_v it_o as_o none_o find_v it_o and_o they_o will_v never_o accuse_v themselves_o except_o they_o be_v distract_v and_o the_o reason_n why_o we_o have_v so_o little_a of_o the_o mill_v and_o do_v keep_v their_o old_a be_v because_o one_o be_v too_o good_a to_o keep_v and_o the_o other_o too_o bad_a to_o carry_v away_o and_o we_o have_v not_o half_a enough_o of_o the_o old_a neither_o and_o therefore_o that_o which_o i_o will_v propose_v be_v that_o we_o may_v have_v a_o new_a coinage_n that_o may_v be_v better_o by_o a_o quarter_n part_n than_o our_o old_a that_o be_v that_o 112_o l._n 10_o s._n of_o the_o new_a may_v weigh_v down_o 150_o l._n of_o the_o old_a money_n and_o that_o the_o say_v 112_o l._n 10_o s._n shall_v weigh_v down_o 100_o l._n of_o our_o milled_a money_n that_o now_o we_o have_v and_o in_o do_v so_o we_o shall_v have_v plenty_n of_o good_a money_n quick_o a_o full_a four_o part_n better_o than_o what_o we_o have_v and_o have_v the_o mint_n keep_v in_o continual_a supply_n with_o silver_n so_o that_o they_o shall_v never_o need_v to_o sit_v still_o ten_o day_n in_o a_o year_n and_o the_o profit_n of_o 400000_o l._n of_o that_o money_n will_v call_v in_o a_o 100000_o l._n of_o crack_v and_o break_v money_n and_o it_o may_v be_v so_o order_v that_o the_o goldsmith_n shall_v have_v one_o and_o a_o half_a present_a for_o carry_v in_o a_o continual_a supply_n of_o money_n and_o not_o to_o let_v any_o lie_v in_o the_o mint_n above_o a_o month_n or_o five_o week_n so_o that_o they_o shall_v return_v their_o money_n ten_o time_n every_o year_n and_o that_o will_v be_v fifteen_o in_o the_o hundred_o in_o a_o year_n and_o for_o the_o coinage_n there_o may_v be_v one_o per_fw-la cent._n more_o or_o less_o allow_v for_o coinage_n and_o so_o there_o can_v never_o want_v silver_n nor_o coiner_n and_o for_o the_o other_o ten_o per_fw-la cent._n to_o go_v the_o first_o 4_o or_o 500000_o l_o to_o call_v in_o as_o i_o say_v a_o 100000_o l._n of_o of_o crack_v money_n and_o the_o profit_n of_o there_a and_o there_o may_v be_v a_o million_o more_o coin_v in_o every_o year_n i_o will_v humble_o propose_v that_o there_o may_v be_v 3_o or_o 400000_o l._n worth_n of_o crack_a and_o break_v and_o decay_a money_n call_v in_o every_o year_n and_o the_o profit_n of_o the_o new_a coinage_n will_v bear_v the_o loss_n of_o the_o old_a for_o it_o can_v be_v suppose_v that_o there_o can_v be_v less_o than_o fifteen_o hundred_o thousand_o or_o two_o million_o of_o money_n coin_v every_o year_n if_o the_o mint_n be_v keep_v in_o a_o continual_a supply_n as_o it_o will_v if_o there_o be_v one_o and_o a_o half_a or_o so_o allow_v to_o bring_v in_o silver_n and_o the_o coiner_n pay_v as_o beforesaid_a and_o if_o silver_n rise_v than_o the_o more_o silver_n rise_v the_o less_o to_o go_v towards_o the_o call_n in_o crack_v money_n so_o that_o it_o can_v never_o rise_v so_o high_a but_o there_o will_v be_v some_o overplus_n and_o the_o high_a silver_n rise_v the_o more_o plenty_n we_o shall_v have_v bring_v in_o and_o indeed_o it_o may_v be_v suppose_v our_o guineas_fw-la go_v at_o about_o 22_o s._n at_o christmas_n make_v we_o keep_v they_o unmelted_a and_o also_o in_o england_n and_o if_o the_o crown-piece_n have_v rise_v as_o much_o in_o proportion_n as_o the_o guineas_n they_o will_v have_v be_v preserve_v also_o if_o every_o twenty_o shilling_n have_v go_v for_o a_o guinea_n and_o if_o every_o guinea_n be_v settle_v at_o 23_o s._n and_o our_o old_a 20_o shilling_n
