of_o our_o love_a subject_n who_o by_o their_o great_a charge_n and_o industry_n have_v so_o well_o profit_v therein_o and_o attain_v to_o such_o perfection_n in_o that_o art_n that_o they_o equal_v the_o stranger_n in_o the_o skilful_a make_v thereof_o and_o be_v able_a by_o the_o labour_n of_o our_o own_o people_n to_o make_v such_o store_n as_o shall_v be_v sufficient_a to_o furnish_v the_o expense_n of_o this_o whole_a kingdom_n and_o whereas_o we_o esteem_v it_o a_o principal_a part_n of_o our_o office_n as_o a_o king_n and_o sovereign_a prince_n to_o cherish_v and_o encourage_v the_o knowledge_n and_o invention_n of_o good_a and_o profitable_a art_n and_o mystery_n and_o to_o make_v they_o frequent_v among_o our_o own_o people_n especial_o such_o wherein_o our_o people_n may_v
