of_o the_o world_n and_o may_v have_v do_v the_o same_o for_o the_o several_a country_n of_o the_o world_n and_o therefore_o the_o say_v several_a period_n assign_v to_o the_o whole_a world_n in_o

this_o disquisition_n concern_v the_o growth_n of_o the_o city_n of_o london_n we_o have_v speak_v of_o the_o growth_n of_o london_n with_o the_o measure_n and_o period_n thereof_o we_o come_v next_o to_o the_o cause_n and_o consequence_n of_o the_o same_o the_o cause_n of_o its_o growth_n from_o 1642_o to_o 1682_o may_v be_v say_v to_o have_v be_v as_o follow_v viz._n from_o 1642_o to_o 1650_o that_o man_n come_v out_o of_o the_o country_n to_o london_n to_o shelter_v themselves_o from_o the_o outrage_n of_o the_o civil_a war_n during_o that_o time_n from_o 1650_o to_o 1660_o the_o royal_a party_n come_v to_o london_n for_o their_o more_o private_a and_o inexpensive_a live_n from_o 1660_o to_o 1670_o the_o king_n friend_n and_o party_n come_v to_o receive_v his_o favour_n after_o his_o happy_a restauration_n from_o 1670_o to_o 1680_o the_o frequency_n of_o plot_n and_o parliament_n may_v bring_v extraordinary_a number_n to_o the_o city_n but_o what_o reason_n to_o assign_v for_o the_o like_a increase_n from_o 1604_o to_o 1642_o i_o know_v not_o unless_o i_o shall_v pick_v out_o some_o remarkable_a accident_n happen_v in_o each_o part_n of_o the_o say_a period_n and_o make_v that_o to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o increase_n as_o vulgar_a people_n make_v the_o cause_n of_o every_o man_n sickness_n to_o be_v what_o he_o do_v last_o eat_v wherefore_o rather_o than_o so_o to_o say_v quidlibet_fw-la de_fw-la quolibet_fw-la i_o have_v rather_o quit_v even_o what_o i_o have_v abovesaid_a to_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o london_n increase_n from_o 1642_o to_o 1682_o and_o put_v the_o whole_a upon_o some_o natural_a and_o spontaneous_a benefit_n and_o advantage_n that_o man_n find_v by_o live_v in_o great_a more_o than_o in_o small_a society_n and_o shall_v therefore_o seek_v for_o the_o antecedent_n cause_n of_o this_o growth_n in_o the_o consequence_n of_o the_o like_a consider_v in_o great_a character_n and_o proportion_n now_o whereas_o in_o arithmetic_n out_o of_o two_o false_a position_n the_o truth_n be_v extract_v so_o i_o hope_v out_o of_o two_o extravagant_a contrary_a supposition_n to_o draw_v forth_o some_o solid_a and_o consistent_a conclusion_n viz._n the_o first_o of_o the_o say_v two_o supposition_n be_v that_o the_o city_n of_o london_n be_v seven_o time_n big_a than_o now_o and_o that_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o it_o be_v four_o million_o 690_o thousand_o people_n and_o that_o in_o all_o the_o other_o city_n port_n town_n and_o village_n there_o be_v but_o two_o million_o 710_o thousand_o more_o the_o other_o supposition_n be_v that_o the_o city_n of_o london_n be_v but_o a_o seven_o part_n of_o its_o present_a bigness_n and_o that_o the_o inhabitant_n of_o it_o be_v but_o 96_o thousand_o and_o that_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o inhabitant_n be_v 7_o million_o 304_o thousand_o do_v cohabit_v thus_o 104_o thousand_o of_o they_o in_o small_a city_n and_o town_n and_o that_o the_o rest_n be_v seven_o million_o 200_o thousand_o do_v inhabit_v in_o house_n not_o contiguous_a to_o one_o another_o viz._n in_o 1200_o thousand_o house_n have_v about_o 24_o acre_n of_o ground_n belong_v to_o each_o of_o they_o account_v about_o 28_o million_o of_o acre_n to_o be_v in_o the_o whole_a territory_n of_o england_n wales_n and_o the_o adjacent_a island_n which_o any_o man_n that_o please_v may_n examine_v upon_o a_o good_a map_n now_o the_o question_n be_v in_o which_o of_o these_o two_o imaginary_a state_n will_v be_v the_o most_o convenient_a commodious_a and_o comfortable_a live_n but_o this_o general_a question_n divide_v itself_o into_o the_o several_a question_n relate_v to_o the_o follow_a particular_n viz._n 1._o for_o the_o defence_n of_o the_o kingdom_n against_o foreign_a power_n 2._o for_o prevent_v the_o intestine_a commotion_n of_o party_n and_o faction_n 3._o for_o peace_n and_o uniformity_n
