will_v any_o wool_n be_v well_o mix_v together_o but_o english_a and_o spanish_a only_o for_o cloth_n because_o the_o spanish_a be_v with_o the_o english_a of_o one_o nature_n be_v former_o english_a

of_o the_o english_a wool_n make_v woof_n for_o the_o warpes_n of_o the_o french_a wool_n and_o so_o take_v up_o it_o may_v be_v as_o much_o as_o the_o quantity_n above_o specify_v to_o every_o pack_n of_o english_a wool_n without_o which_o they_o can_v only_o with_o their_o wool_n make_v rug_n and_o at_o the_o best_a cloth_n for_o seaman_n and_o the_o like_a 2_o their_o combing_n or_o pinnion_n

and_o colour_v be_v not_o discernible_a to_o all_o person_n to_o be_v that_o we_o call_v linsey_n woolsie_n 3_o the_o fine_a short_a english_a wool_n be_v mix_v with_o the_o low_a of_o spanish_a

s._n per_fw-la yard_n this_o be_v the_o cause_n i_o judge_v that_o short_a spanish_a wool_n be_v so_o scarce_o here_o in_o england_n now_o if_o we_o consider_v these_o thing_n together_o the_o damage_n of_o the_o export_n of_o this_o one_o pack_n from_o england_n to_o france_n at_o about_o 10_o l._n or_o 12_o l._n sterling_n prevent_v the_o manufacture_v of_o two_o pack_n more_o in_o

import_v in_o england_n it_o be_v much_o if_o it_o do_v not_o more_o than_o double_a the_o first_o principal_a now_o if_o it_o be_v so_o that_o the_o exportation_n of_o one_o pack_v of_o english_a wool_n export_v at_o 10_o l._n or_o 12_o l._n be_v near_o 200_o l._n damage_n to_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n in_o general_n be_v the_o consequence_n what_o will_v be_v the_o loss_n in_o the_o export_n of_o 10._o or_o 15_o thousand_o pack_n into_o france_n in_o two_o year_n time_n be_v easy_o account_v by_o such_o as_o be_v concern_v in_o the_o affair_n and_o although_o this_o evil_n be_v

be_v a_o sufficient_a witness_n and_o second_o in_o time_n it_o will_v capacitate_v the_o french_a as_o well_o as_o the_o dutch_a if_o not_o much_o better_a to_o under-sell_a our_o english_a
