A44077	The groans of the poor, the misery of traders, and the calamity of the publick for the spoiling of our money, for the want of our money, and for the loss that will befal the King and the nation, if there be not as much money coined in the room of it, to pay our taxes, drive our trades, pay our rents, and the the poor to buy bread : and an humble proposal to raise four millions of money for His Majesty's and the nation's use / humbly proposed by a faithful servant to His Majesty and the nation, William Hodges.	Hodges, William, Sir, 1645?-1714.	1696 (1696)	Wing H2328; ESTC R36001	23,173	37

may_v rather_o be_v fear_v that_o they_o will_v keep_v it_o more_o careful_o

for_o fear_v if_o that_o be_v go_v they_o shall_v never_o see_v it_o again_o also_o if_o they_o lay_v up_o as_o a_o friend_n of_o i_o say_v he_o be_v offer_v two_o thousand_o pound_n of_o money_n

this_o party_n to_o be_v sure_o will_v hoard_v up_o all_o milled_a money_n next_o he_o and_o another_o thing_n my_o eye_n and_o ear_n and_o understanding_n tell_v i_o of_o great_a sum_n of_o money_n that_o abundance_n of_o people_n will_v not_o have_v now_o themselves_o and_o it_o may_v be_v have_v not_o these_o 3_o or_o 4_o year_n keep_v their_o money_n by_o they_o because_o they_o can_v not_o get_v mill_v money_n and_o so_o have_v take_v goldsmith_n bill_n to_o lie_v by_o they_o instead_o of_o money_n and_o if_o there_o be_v mill_v money_n coin_v at_o 5_o shilling_n 2_o penny_n the_o

penny_n the_o ounce_n if_o they_o can_v have_v 6_o shilling_n in_o france_n and_o some_o other_o nation_n so_o that_o i_o suppose_v our_o mint_n will_v stand_v full_a again_o after_o the_o old_a

in_o a_o year_n or_o two_o as_o all_o our_o money_n be_v worth_a and_o that_o be_v the_o want_n of_o money_n to_o return_v i_o suppose_v if_o there_o be_v a_o possibility_n to_o know_v the_o loss_n

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

sometime_o several_a week_n or_o month_n and_o therefore_o i_o be_o certain_a that_o it_o will_v be_v the_o interest_n of_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n and_o nation_n to_o have_v great_a plenty_n of_o money_n and_o a_o great_a ruin_n if_o we_o have_v not_o and_o though_o it_o may_v be_v some_o will_v say_v the_o rise_z of_o good_n will_v follow_v the_o rise_n of_o money_n it_o be_v a_o pretence_n for_o since_o queen_n elizabeth_n day_n all_o sort_n of_o good_n and_o all_o sort_n of_o provision_n and_o servant_n and_o labourer_n wage_n be_v rise_v near_o three_o time_n dear_a though_o money_n have_v be_v at_o the_o same_o for_o as_o the_o nation_n increase_v in_o inhabitant_n and_o trade_n and_o riches_n yet_o corn_n food_n and_o clothes_n will_v rise_v and_o wage_n must_v rise_v and_o therefore_o they_o that_o argue_v to_o have_v our_o money_n carry_v away_o argue_v aright_o to_o have_v our_o good_n fall_v for_o if_o our_o money_n be_v go_v away_o our_o good_n will_v be_v drug_n and_o must_v fall_v and_o if_o we_o be_v poor_a we_o may_v have_v good_n cheap_a and_o therefore_o in_o other_o country_n where_o they_o have_v little_a money_n they_o live_v cheap_a but_o i_o never_o know_v any_o man_n in_o my_o life_n go_v there_o to_o live_v to_o get_v money_n where_o thing_n be_v so_o cheap_a and_o now_o i_o think_v of_o our_o guinea_n rise_v it_o have_v be_v one_o
