nevertheless_o be_v grant_v that_o the_o say_v india_n ware_n have_v their_o final_a end_n in_o moncy_n but_o i_o will_v cease_v to_o heap_v up_o any_o more_o argument_n to_o prove_v a_o matter_n

unseruiceable_a the_o answer_n this_o east-india_n trade_n seem_v to_o be_v bear_v and_o bring_v up_o a_o unthrift_n for_o it_o waste_v and_o consume_v all_o neither_o do_v it_o good_a to_o any_o but_o the_o objection_n in_o some_o part_n be_v very_o weak_a and_o in_o the_o rest_n it_o be_v mistake_v for_o first_o objection_n concern_v the_o weakness_n thereof_o will_v man_n have_v we_o to_o

be_v daily_o make_v for_o other_o private_a merchant_n such_o as_o england_n never_o have_v before_o &_o that_o which_o be_v most_o remarkable_a be_v the_o continual_a late_a building_n of_o his_o

for_o it_o be_v well_o know_v to_o all_o man_n who_o please_v true_o to_o be_v inform_v that_o the_o east-india_n company_n beside_o their_o fleet_n of_o ship_n go_v and_o come_v &_o also_o abide_v in_o the_o indies_n be_v continual_o build_v repair_a rig_v victual_v and_o furnish_v to_o sea_n with_o all_o provision_n needful_a for_o such_o a_o long_a voyage_n some_o 7._o or_o 8._o great_a

rather_o come_v to_o the_o handle_n of_o that_o which_o follow_v the_o three_o objection_n the_o voyage_n to_o the_o east_n indies_n do_v great_o consume_v our_o victual_n and_o our_o mariner_n leave_v many_o poor_a widow_n and_o child_n unrelieve_v beside_o that_o many_o ship_n be_v yearly_a send_v forth_o to_o the_o east_n indies_n and_o few_o we_o see_v as_o yet_o return_v also_o this_o trade_n have_v great_o decay_v the_o traffic_n and_o ship_n which_o be_v wont_a to_o be_v employ_v into_o the_o straits_n and_o yet_o the_o say_a trade_n to_o the_o east_n indies_n be_v find_v very_o

why_o what_o a_o world_n of_o mischief_n have_v we_o here_o 1._o dearth_n 2._o mortality_n 3._o destruction_n 4._o beggary_n 5._o and_o never_o a_o whit_n the_o near_a a_o very_a team_n of_o

for_o the_o good_a of_o the_o commonwealth_n ship_n now_o therefore_o concern_v the_o provision_n of_o victual_n which_o in_o this_o kingdom_n be_v yearly_a prepare_v for_o the_o set_n forth_o of_o those_o ship_n which_o sail_v to_o the_o east_n indies_n it_o be_v well_o know_v to_o many_o man_n that_o it_o be_v always_o proportion_v for_o about_o eighteen_o month_n whereas_o common_o the_o

in_o respect_n of_o the_o former_a voyage_n which_o have_v not_o have_v the_o like_a hindrance_n and_o thus_o in_o a_o few_o line_n may_v be_v see_v much_o matter_n true_o collect_v with_o some_o

merchant_n with_o vent_n of_o more_o of_o our_o english_a cloth_n by_o one_o three_o part_n at_o least_o then_o in_o time_n before_o the_o east_n india_n trade_n begin_v yea_o but_o say_v they_o we_o have_v lose_v the_o trade_n of_o spice_n and_o indigo_n from_o aleppo_n into_o england_n well_o i_o grant_v they_o have_v yet_o the_o kingdom_n have_v find_v it_o with_o more_o profit_n by_o another_o

to_o the_o good_a of_o the_o commonwealth_n neither_o have_v the_o affair_n of_o the_o east_n indies_n impair_v or_o decay_v any_o other_o trade_n ship_n or_o mariner_n of_o this_o realm_n but_o have_v mighty_o increase_v they_o all_o in_o itself_o wherefore_o let_v we_o now_o take_v a_o view_n of_o this_o noble_a addition_n of_o the_o kingdom_n strength_n and_o glory_n but_o this_o i_o must_v not_o do_v by_o set_v down_o the_o number_n of_o our_o english_a ship_v row_n in_o the_o indies_n or_o late_o go_v that_o way_n for_o they_o have_v be_v heap_v thither_o these_o three_o last_o
