great_a expense_n in_o westminister-hall_n be_v now_o usual_o refer_v to_o the_o determination_n of_o those_o who_o understand_v they_o better_o than_o the_o lawyer_n can_v pretend_v to_o do_v ship_n of_o war_n may_v likewise_o be_v build_v fit_v out_o and_o separate_v for_o the_o security_n of_o our_o trade_n and_o all_o this_o out_o of_o those_o profit_n which_o former_o slide_v through_o

some_o reflection_n though_o i_o have_v show_v the_o advantage_n thereof_o if_o well_o settle_v in_o another_o treatise_n we_o general_o employ_v commissioner_n in_o the_o management_n of_o thing_n

the_o happy_a man_n who_o have_v the_o conveniency_n of_o raise_v money_n wherewith_o he_o may_v purchase_v bank_n bill_n and_o pay_v his_o creditor_n with_o they_o for_o which_o opportunity_n will_v

ready_a to_o catch_v it_o up_o in_o order_n to_o make_v these_o advantage_n and_o indeed_o every_o man_n to_o who_o hand_n money_n shall_v come_v will_v endeavour_v to_o do_v the_o same_o so_o that_o to_o what_o a_o condition_n the_o king_n affair_n will_v in_o a_o short_a time_n be_v reduce_v it_o will_v not_o be_v difficult_a to_o guest_n when_o beside_o former_a clog_n another_o addition_n of_o fifteen_o per_fw-la cent_z shall_v be_v add_v to_o all_o the_o money_n be_v take_v up_o for_o the_o occasion_n of_o the_o nation_n i_o be_o of_o opinion_n that_o whatever_o difficulty_n may_v seem_v to_o attend_v the_o settle_n of_o such_o a_o credit_n yet_o it_o may_v be_v do_v and_o i_o humble_o conceive_v that_o method_n may_v be_v propose_v such_o as_o may_v answer_v all_o the_o end_v intend_v by_o it_o but_o than_o it_o must_v be_v do_v with_o a_o eye_n design_v only_o the_o general_a good_a self_n must_v be_v clear_o shut_v out_o and_o have_v we_o more_o public_a spirit_n thing_n which_o seem_v difficult_a will_v appear_v more_o easy_a self_n interest_n as_o it_o byasses_n our_o judgement_n so_o it_o perplex_v our_o design_n a_o frank_a free_a spirit_n for_o the_o common_a good_a will_v go_v a_o great_a way_n in_o a_o generous_a undertake_n and_o the_o public_a be_v able_a to_o reward_v such_o honest_a endeavour_n which_o it_o be_v better_a they_o do_v then_o suffer_v the_o treasure_n of_o the_o nation_n to_o be_v eat_v up_o by_o goldsmith_n and_o other_o harpy_n who_o prey_n upon_o our_o vital_n bv_o the_o one_o the_o generous_a undertaker_n be_v no_o charge_n to_o the_o public_a but_o increase_v its_o treasure_n whilst_o the_o other_o lessen_v it_o and_o destroy_v our_o trade_n into_o the_o bargain_n the_o face_n of_o our_o affair_n seem_v to_o look_v

to_o both_o i_o do_v not_o mention_v this_o to_o amuse_v the_o nation_n but_o as_o deplorable_a as_o thing_n seem_v to_o be_v i_o doubt_v not_o a_o remedy_n may_v be_v find_v out_o to_o rectisie_n all_o if_o man_n of_o quick_a and_o strong_a thought_n be_v set_v about_o it_o i_o have_v already_o speak_v to_o the_o first_o our_o credit_n the_o next_o be_v our_o trade_n which_o must_v be_v
