scotland_n will_v be_v more_o than_o double_v it_o be_v therefore_o better_a to_o acknowledge_v according_a to_o truth_n that_o the_o plantation_n be_v great_o beneficial_a and_o to_o keep_v the_o plantation_n there_o be_v one_o main_a advantage_n by_o the_o plantation_n which_o have_v not_o be_v sufficient_o explain_v and_o that_o be_v that_o we_o have_v now_o divers_a good_a commodity_n of_o our_o own_o which_o before_o we_o have_v not_o which_o do_v very_o much_o conduce_v to_o the_o enrich_n of_o england_n for_o it_o be_v agree_v by_o all_o that_o pretend_v to_o understand_v trade_n that_o a_o country_n do_v then_o grow_v rich_a and_o then_o only_o when_o the_o commodity_n export_v out_o of_o it_o be_v more_o in_o value_n then_o those_o that_o be_v import_v into_o it_o this_o proportion_n between_o the_o importation_n and_o the_o exportation_n be_v call_v the_o balance_n of_o trade_n and_o there_o be_v no_o way_n in_o the_o world_n for_o a_o country_n to_o grow_v rich_a by_o trade_n but_o by_o set_v this_o balance_n right_a and_o by_o send_v out_o more_o than_o it_o take_v in_o some_o other_o trick_n and_o shift_n there_o be_v which_o make_v show_v of_o do_v great_a matter_n but_o they_o prove_v idle_a and_o frivolous_a and_o signify_v just_a nothing_o a_o country_n in_o this_o respect_n be_v in_o the_o same_o condition_n with_o a_o private_a man_n that_o live_v upon_o his_o land._n if_o this_o man_n sell_v more_o than_o he_o buy_v he_o lay_v up_o money_n if_o he_o buy_v more_o than_o he_o sell_v he_o must_v run_v in_o debt_n or_o at_o least_o spend_v out_o of_o the_o quick_a stock_n and_o where_o the_o buy_v and_o the_o sold_n be_v equal_a he_o have_v bare_o bring_v both_o end_n together_o it_o be_v therefore_o most_o evident_a that_o the_o increase_n of_o native_a commodity_n bring_v in_o riches_n and_o money_n since_o it_o make_v the_o exportation_n great_a or_o at_o least_o the_o importation_n less_o and_o it_o be_v as_o evident_a that_o the_o plantation_n give_v england_n a_o great_a increase_n of_o native_a commodity_n cotton_n ginger_n indigo_n and_o sugar_n to_o omit_v other_o thing_n be_v now_o the_o native_a commodity_n of_o england_n we_o may_v insist_v a_o little_a further_o upon_o sugar_n as_o be_v the_o most_o considerable_a heretofore_o we_o have_v all_o our_o sugar_n from_o portugal_n and_o it_o be_v compute_v that_o they_o cost_v we_o yearly_o about_o four_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n now_o that_o great_a leak_n be_v stop_v and_o we_o hardly_o buy_v any_o portugal_n or_o brasile_a sugar_n be_v plentiful_o supply_v by_o our_o own_o plantation_n but_o moreover_o beside_o what_o we_o use_v ourselves_o we_o export_v as_o much_o sugar_n to_o other_o country_n as_o bring_v we_o in_o yearly_a near_o the_o same_o sum_n so_o that_o the_o plantation_n by_o this_o one_o commodity_n do_v advance_v near_o eight_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n a_o year_n the_o one_o half_a in_o get_v the_o other_o in_o save_v to_o turn_v the_o scale_n of_o trade_n to_o the_o advantage_n of_o england_n why_o shall_v england_n grudge_v at_o the_o prosperity_n and_o wealth_n of_o the_o plantation_n since_o all_o that_o be_v we_o she_o may_v account_v she_o own_o not_o only_o because_o we_o be_v real_o a_o part_n of_o england_n what_o ever_o we_o may_v be_v account_v as_o it_o be_v take_v large_o but_o also_o because_o all_o come_v
