of_o our_o trade_n people_n and_o the_o poor_a in_o these_o nation_n in_o respect_n of_o our_o money_n which_o i_o fear_v the_o loss_n of_o will_v be_v fatal_a to_o both_o and_o i_o wish_v it_o may_v

and_o the_o rest_n to_o go_v towards_o the_o call_v in_o the_o fragment_n of_o our_o old_a money_n at_o last_o and_o there_o will_v never_o want_v silver_n nor_o coiner_n and_o we_o shall_v be_v in_o a_o few_o year_n full_a of_o money_n to_o the_o joy_n of_o the_o king_n and_o country_n and_o landlord_n and_o tenant_n and_o this_o i_o will_v represent_v that_o our_o seaman_n at_o sea_n and_o the_o
