that_o before_o the_o spring_n he_o land_v in_o august_n the_o whole_a kingdom_n be_v in_o a_o manner_n in_o protestant_n hand_n the_o irish_a pen_v up_o in_o garrison_n and_o yet_o after_o all_o these_o advantage_n and_o opportunity_n of_o sow_a corn_n when_o the_o war_n be_v over_o in_o fifty_o one_o the_o famine_n and_o its_o usual_a attendant_a the_o plague_n sweep_v away_o more_o than_o the_o sword_n have_v do_v in_o all_o the_o war_n of_o the_o irish_a and_o many_o thousand_o of_o the_o english._n in_o the_o city_n of_o dublin_n there_o die_v in_o one_o year_n two_o and_o twenty_o thousand_o there_o be_v a_o worse_a prospect_n now_o of_o the_o same_o fate_n for_o that_o the_o protestant_n have_v not_o a_o ear_n of_o corn_n in_o the_o kingdom_n nor_o have_v the_o irish_a much_o scarce_o any_o winter-corn_n for_o that_o at_o the_o season_n for_o sow_v they_o have_v be_v embroil_v in_o arms._n nor_o can_v there_o be_v any_o spring-corn_n considerable_a for_o the_o same_o reason_n from_o all_o which_o they_o infer_v there_o must_v inevitable_o be_v a_o famine_n next_o year_n which_o will_v in_o the_o first_o place_n fall_v upon_o those_o protestant_n that_o escape_v this_o winter_n many_o be_v perish_v already_o for_o that_o the_o irish_a keep_v the_o man_n prisoner_n after_o have_v rob_v they_o of_o all_o they_o have_v and_o leave_v the_o poor_a woman_n and_o child_n starve_v in_o their_o house_n upon_o the_o whole_a they_o conclude_v that_o the_o kingdom_n will_v be_v in_o a_o manner_n dispeople_v let_v what_o will_v now_o happen_v and_o that_o those_o few_o both_o of_o english_a and_o irish_a who_o escape_v the_o destroy_a angel_n in_o war_n famine_n and_o plague_n and_o live_v to_o see_v peace_n will_v yet_o perish_v for_o want_v of_o bread_n the_o money_n of_o the_o kingdom_n be_v already_o send_v to_o france_n by_o the_o late_a king_n and_o brass_n farthing_n leave_v as_o half-crown_n in_o the_o room_n of_o the_o silver_n so_o that_o they_o will_v have_v nothing_o to_o purchase_v food_n they_o far_o add_v that_o after_o the_o last_o rebellion_n the_o kingdom_n be_v sull_a of_o money_n than_o ever_o it_o be_v since_o that_o corn_n be_v much_o cheap_a in_o england_n than_o it_o be_v like_a to_o be_v now_o that_o then_o they_o have_v great_a quantity_n of_o corn_n from_o france_n now_o there_o can_v be_v none_o and_o after_o all_o these_o help_n which_o now_o they_o will_v want_v yet_o great_a part_n of_o those_o leave_v in_o fifty_o one_o perish_v by_o famine_n and_o want_v of_o people_n to_o bury_v the_o dead_a infect_v the_o air_n and_o bring_v the_o plague_n the_o irish_a scarce_o cover_v their_o dead_a with_o earth_n some_o objection_n i_o make_v to_o these_o despond_v conjecture_n which_o be_v chief_o two_o first_o that_o it_o be_v not_o to_o be_v imagine_v but_o the_o irish_a will_v keep_v some_o silver-money_n and_o that_o in_o rob_v the_o english_a they_o must_v get_v some_o to_o this_o i_o be_v answer_v that_o the_o irish_a be_v seldom_o master_n of_o money_n their_o treasure_n be_v cattle_n that_o the_o course_n the_o late_a king_n take_v be_v invincible_a to_o draw_v out_o every_o penny_n of_o silver_n they_o have_v for_o at_o the_o same_o time_n he_o proclaim_v his_o brass_n coin_n to_o pay_v his_o army_n and_o to_o pass_v betwixt_o man_n and_o man_n it_o be_v provide_v that_o all_o his_o revenue_n as_o quitrent_n hearth-money_n excise_n custom_n etc._n etc._n shall_v be_v pay_v in_o silver_n so_o that_o as_o long_o as_o there_o be_v a_o penny_n among_o they_o it_o come_v into_o the_o treasury_n for_o their_o have_a money_n of_o the_o english_n or_o plate_n i_o find_v they_o be_v so_o ingenious_a most_o of_o they_o as_o to_o confess_v they_o believe_v the_o english_a leave_v little_a money_n or_o plate_n behind_o they_o my_o second_o objection_n be_v that_o though_o there_o be_v no_o trade_n yet_o in_o such_o a_o fertile_a country_n it_o be_v easy_a for_o the_o irish_a to_o get_v root_n herb_n milk_n flesh_n and_o their_o great_a food_n potato_n which_o we_o see_v here_o in_o england_n after_o once_o set_v be_v never_o to_o be_v get_v out_o of_o the_o ground_n so_o that_o of_o they_o they_o can_v never_o want_v to_o all_o which_o i_o be_v answer_v that_o the_o irish_a for_o by_o the_o way_n it_o be_v grant_v that_o the_o english_a will_v not_o be_v admit_v nor_o be_v able_a to_o do_v any_o of_o these_o be_v great_a stranger_n to_o garden-stuff_n nor_o be_v there_o garden-seed_n in_o the_o kingdom_n the_o english_a always_o fetch_v they_o from_o england_n milk_n it_o be_v true_a be_v one_o part_n of_o their_o summer_n provision_n
