draw_v away_o by_o the_o stranger_n upon_o fear_n of_o our_o trouble_n of_o which_o i_o have_v experience_n by_o exchange_n and_o exchange_n be_v the_o great_a mystery_n especial_o such_o as_o be_v use_v as_o a_o trade_n and_o govern_v by_o banker_n who_o make_v many_o return_n in_o a_o year_n and_o gain_v by_o every_o one_o more_o than_o the_o interest_n of_o a_o year_n and_o the_o great_a danger_n to_o a_o state_n be_v when_o money_n be_v make_v merchandise_n which_o shall_v be_v but_o the_o measure_n thereof_o and_o here_o i_o will_v propose_v a_o problem_n whether_o it_o be_v profitable_a to_o a_o kingdom_n or_o not_o that_o the_o stranger_n for_o many_o year_n have_v a_o great_a stock_n here_o at_o interest_n and_o still_o have_v some_o i_o confess_v it_o have_v supply_v the_o necessity_n of_o merchant_n and_o help_v to_o drive_v trade_n but_o my_o quaere_fw-la be_v this_o suppose_v the_o first_o principal_a be_v true_o bring_v in_o by_o the_o stranger_n yet_o double_v every_o ten_o year_n what_o become_v of_o the_o increase_n have_v they_o not_o live_v by_o our_o trade_n and_o the_o merchant-adventurer_n and_o soak_v the_o kingdom_n of_o as_o many_o time_n principal_a as_o they_o have_v practise_v this_o usury_n many_o time_n ten_o year_n and_o in_o the_o end_n draw_v or_o carry_v all_o away_o this_o be_v a_o point_n to_o a_o state_n very_o considerable_a much_o coin_n have_v be_v draw_v away_o without_o doubt_n by_o the_o french_a who_o have_v bring_v in_o ware_n of_o little_a bulk_n perhaps_o without_o custom_n but_o of_o dear_a price_n and_o have_v turn_v they_o into_o gold_n have_v return_v without_o invest_v any_o part_n thereof_o and_o such_o petty_a merchant_n can_v be_v reach_v by_o the_o statute_n of_o employment_n another_o cause_n of_o scarcity_n of_o coin_n may_v be_v the_o over_o strict_a rule_n of_o the_o uncurrentnesse_n of_o any_o good_a coin_n and_o that_o it_o must_v be_v sell_v here_o as_o bullion_n in_o that_o case_n what_o stranger_n will_v bring_v in_o money_n whereas_o if_o every_o good_a species_n be_v current_a according_a to_o his_o allay_n and_o weight_n in_o proportion_n to_o our_o coin_n or_o rather_o a_o little_a high_o it_o will_v draw_v namely_o money_n by_o degree_n into_o england_n as_o low_a ground_n do_v water_n from_o high_a though_o they_o see_v not_o the_o channel_n and_o we_o see_v france_n holland_n and_o germany_n admit_v all_o good_a coin_n though_o foreign_a for_o and_o above_o their_o intrinsique_n value_n but_o i_o will_v end_v this_o search_n by_o propose_v some_o general_a remedy_n for_o i_o do_v now_o but_o make_v essay_n and_o give_v occasion_n to_o more_o subtle_a and_o particular_a disquisition_n 1._o to_o the_o first_o leak_n of_o stead_v away_o coin_n i_o will_v make_v it_o felony_n by_o a_o act_n for_o if_o a_o man_n may_v just_o suffer_v death_n for_o rob_v of_o a_o private_a man_n i_o see_v no_o injustice_n nor_o cruelty_n to_o inflict_v the_o same_o punishment_n upon_o he_o that_o rob_v a_o kingdom_n 2._o that_o the_o neighbour_n prince_n and_o state_n do_v cry_v up_o our_o money_n and_o so_o entice_v it_o from_o we_o this_o in_o my_o judgement_n ought_v to_o be_v provide_v for_o by_o our_o treaty_n which_o be_v the_o old_a way_n especial_o of_o commerce_n by_o agree_v and_o publish_v of_o placart_n according_a to_o a_o true_a par_fw-fr for_o that_o prince_n that_o will_v make_v a_o treaty_n of_o commerce_n do_v it_o for_o the_o use_n of_o the_o commodity_n which_o certain_o i_o will_v deny_v any_o prince_n that_o will_v not_o consent_v to_o keep_v money_n even_o by_o their_o true_a value_n at_o least_o that_o will_v set_v a_o high_a price_n upon_o our_o money_n then_o the_o king_n have_v do_v and_o if_o our_o coin_n do_v either_o keep_v beyond_o the_o sear_v the_o english_a value_n or_o be_v bullion_n and_o uncurrent_a the_o stranger_n shall_v have_v as_o little_a of_o our_o money_n as_o we_o have_v of_o they_o how_o to_o recover_v the_o stranger_n money_n draw_v away_o since_o our_o trouble_n be_v a_o hard_a endeavour_n and_o can_v no_o way_n be_v bring_v to_o pass_v but_o by_o peace_n and_o trade_n and_o the_o resolution_n of_o this_o will_v fall_v into_o the_o general_a remedy_n which_o i_o shall_v propose_v the_o peddle_a french_a trade_n must_v be_v meet_v with_o by_o diligent_a search_n at_o the_o land_n of_o these_o creamer_n what_o they_o bring_v in_o and_o by_o suffer_v none_o of_o they_o to_o pass_v any_o good_n by_o private_a warrant_n but_o that_o according_a as_o they_o shall_v be_v value_v they_o give_v bond_n to_o invest_v it_o in_o english_a commodity_n natural_a or_o naturalize_v and_o that_o with_o surety_n nay_o in_o this_o case_n not_o to_o allow_v they_o exchange_v by_o bill_n for_o it_o will_v not_o hurt_v the_o commonwealth_n if_o by_o any_o rigour_n they_o be_v beat_v out_o of_o their_o private_a toyish_a traffic_n i_o shall_v not_o doubt_v to_o offend_v any_o but_o the_o mint_n which_o may_v be_v recompense_v to_o his_o majesty_n in_o his_o custom_n if_o money_n be_v plentiful_a for_o all_o good_n will_v follow_v money_n if_o i_o do_v propose_v the_o currentnesse_n of_o all_o good_n and_o great_a species_n of_o foreign_a coin_n for_o their_o true_a intrinsique_n value_n according_a to_o the_o pay_n with_o we_o and_o if_o i_o say_v a_o little_a high_o according_a to_o occasion_n keep_v our_o own_o coin_n pure_a and_o constant_a to_o be_v cry_v down_o as_o much_o under_o according_a to_o occasion_n i_o think_v it_o will_v be_v a_o policy_n both_o reasonable_a and_o profitable_a by_o experience_n try_v in_o other_o state_n but_o leave_v these_o empirical_a practice_n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o great_a and_o infallible_a rule_n and_o remedy_n which_o be_v in_o plain_a english_a to_o settle_v and_o assure_v the_o ground_n of_o trade_n upon_o staple_n commodity_n then_o like_o the_o lady_n of_o whitsuntide_n to_o her_o pipe_n money_n will_v dance_v after_o that_o for_o as_o merchandise_n do_v follow_v money_n so_o do_v money_n commodity_n i_o say_v at_o first_o it_o be_v a_o general_a opinion_n that_o trade_n never_o flourish_v more_o than_o now_o and_o it_o may_v be_v so_o but_o we_o must_v consider_v this_o be_v not_o accidental_a and_o changeable_a and_o depend_v more_o upon_o the_o iniquity_n or_o misery_n of_o the_o time_n then_o upon_o our_o own_o foundation_n and_o industry_n and_o if_o that_o be_v so_o than_o it_o be_v no_o suit_n ground_n for_o a_o state_n to_o rely_v upon_o for_o if_o the_o cause_n change_v the_o effect_n will_v follow_v now_o it_o be_v true_a that_o our_o great_a trade_n depend_v upon_o the_o trouble_n of_o our_o neighbour_n and_o we_o enjoy_v almost_o the_o trade_n of_o christendom_n but_o if_o a_o peace_n happen_v betwixt_o france_n spain_n and_o the_o unite_a province_n all_o these_o will_v share_v what_o we_o now_o possess_v alone_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v provide_v for_o that_o day_n for_o nothing_o stand_v secure_a but_o upon_o his_o own_o foundation_n to_o make_v then_o our_o own_o trade_n secure_a we_o must_v consider_v our_o own_o staple_n commodity_n whereof_o wool_n be_v the_o chief_a and_o seek_v the_o way_n to_o both_o to_o keep_v up_o the_o price_n at_o home_n and_o the_o estimation_n of_o all_o commodity_n make_v of_o that_o and_o to_o be_v vent_v abroad_o some_o other_o help_v we_o have_v as_o tin_n lead_v and_o such_o like_a but_o i_o dare_v confident_o affirm_v that_o nothing_o export_v of_o our_o own_o growth_n have_v balance_v our_o riotous_a consumption_n at_o home_n but_o those_o foreign_a commodity_n which_o i_o call_v naturalize_v that_o be_v that_o surplus_n of_o our_o east-india_n trade_n which_o be_v
