suffer_v by_o this_o trade_n as_o well_o as_o the_o manufacturer_n though_o not_o so_o soon_o but_o as_o in_o common_a prudence_n when_o one_o neighbour_n house_n be_v on_o fire_n all_o endeavour_n be_v use_v by_o the_o neighbourhood_n to_o quench_v it_o not_o only_o for_o their_o neighbour_n good_a but_o also_o to_o preserve_v themselves_o so_o that_o it_o be_v the_o interest_n of_o landed-man_n as_o well_o as_o manufacturer_n to_o endeavour_v to_o put_v a_o stop_n to_o the_o evil_a in_o that_o trade_n and_o to_o turn_v the_o scale_n on_o the_o kingdom_n side_n according_a to_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o east-india_n company_n when_o they_o make_v this_o remonstrance_n which_o be_v to_o make_v our_o exportation_n great_a of_o all_o sort_n of_o commodiry_n and_o the_o home-consumption_n little_a of_o foreign_a remonstrance_n page_n 14._o in_o the_o course_n of_o foreign_a trade_n there_o be_v three_o sort_n or_o degree_n of_o gain_n the_o first_o be_v that_o of_o the_o commonwealth_n which_o may_v be_v do_v when_o the_o merchant_n who_o be_v the_o principal_a agent_n therein_o shall_v lose_v the_o second_o be_v the_o gain_n of_o the_o merchant_n which_o he_o do_v sometime_o just_o and_o worthy_o effect_v although_o the_o commonwealth_n be_v a_o loser_n the_o three_o be_v the_o gain_n of_o the_o king_n whereof_o he_o be_v ever_o certain_a even_o when_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o the_o merchant_n shall_v be_v both_o loser_n page_n 15._o suppose_v the_o company_n shall_v send_v out_o one_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n in_o ware_n or_o money_n into_o india_n and_o receive_v home_o for_o the_o same_o three_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n it_o be_v evident_a that_o this_o part_n of_o the_o public_a stock_n be_v tribled_a and_o yet_o we_o may_v bold_o say_v the_o company_n lose_v if_o the_o return_v be_v in_o bulky_a commodity_n as_o saltpetre_n cotton-yarn_n indigo_n callicoe_n etc._n etc._n the_o custom_n and_o charge_n will_v amount_v to_o two_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n page_n 16._o a_o second_o sort_n of_o gain_n in_o the_o course_n of_o trade_n be_v when_o the_o merchant_n by_o his_o laudable_a endeavour_n may_v both_o bring_v in_o and_o carry_v out_o ware_n to_o his_o advantage_n by_o buy_v and_o sell_v they_o to_o good_a profit_n which_o be_v the_o end_n of_o his_o labour_n yet_o nevertheless_o the_o commonwealth_n shall_v decline_v and_o grow_v poor_a by_o a_o disorder_n in_o the_o people_n when_o through_o pride_n and_o excess_n they_o do_v consume_v more_o foreign_a ware_n in_o value_n than_o the_o wealth_n of_o the_o kingdom_n can_v satisfy_v and_o pay_v by_o the_o exportatian_a of_o our_o own_o commodity_n which_o be_v the_o very_a quality_n of_o a_o spendthrift_n who_o spend_v beyond_o his_o mean_n the_o three_o gain_n be_v the_o king_n be_v who_o be_v ever_o sure_a to_o get_v by_o trade_n when_o both_o the_o commonwealth_n and_o merchant_n shall_v loose_v several_o or_o joint_o as_o it_o may_v and_o do_v sometime_o happen_v when_o the_o merchant_n success_n be_v bad_a and_o our_o commodity_n be_v overbalance_v by_o foreign_a ware_n consume_v but_o if_o such_o disorder_n be_v not_o prevent_v his_o majesty_n in_o the_o end_n shall_v be_v the_o great_a loser_n when_o his_o subject_n shall_v be_v impoverish_v animadvertion_n these_o three_o sort_n of_o gain_n can_v long_o continue_v or_o at_o least_o ought_v not_o for_o as_o to_o the_o first_o if_o the_o commonwealth_n gain_v and_o the_o merchant_n lose_v the_o merchant_n will_v take_v care_n to_o put_v a_o stop_n to_o that_o trade_n by_o leave_v it_o for_o self-preservation_n sake_n as_o to_o the_o second_o when_o the_o commonwealth_n lose_v there_o be_v the_o great_a mischief_n and_o like_v to_o continue_v because_o the_o merchant_n who_o be_v the_o agent_n be_v the_o gainer_n and_o the_o commonwealth_n which_o be_v the_o loose_a be_v passive_a and_o can_v so_o soon_o hinder_v the_o mischief_n grow_v upon_o it_o as_o can_v be_v wish_v because_o it_o must_v be_v do_v by_o wholesome_a law_n which_o require_v time_n to_o repair_v the_o breach_n make_v by_o these_o selfish_a trader_n and_o to_o keep_v trade_n in_o its_o true_a course_n that_o the_o commonwealth_n may_v be_v no_o loose_a which_o be_v high_o reasonable_a to_o be_v do_v it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o the_o prudent_a trader_n do_v of_o himself_o when_o he_o find_v he_o be_v a_o loose_a he_o leave_v it_o and_z follows_z another_z as_o to_o the_o three_o sort_n of_o gain_n its_o sure_a and_o lasting_a foundation_n must_v be_v that_o which_o bring_v gain_n to_o all_o in_o music_n when_o all_o part_n agree_v there_o be_v a_o sweet_a melody_n but_o if_o not_o than_o jar_n and_o discord_n remonstrance_n we_o will_v take_v that_o for_o grant_v which_o no_o body_n will_v deny_v we_o that_o we_o have_v no_o other_o mean_n to_o get_v treasure_n but_o by_o foreign_a trade_n for_o mine_n we_o have_v none_o which_o do_v afford_v it_o and_o how_o this_o money_n be_v get_v in_o the_o manage_n of_o the_o say_a trade_n we_o have_v already_o show_v that_o it_o be_v do_v by_o make_v our_o commodity_n which_o be_v export_v to_o overbalance_n in_o value_n the_o foreign_a ware_n which_o we_o consume_v animadvertion_n if_o we_o have_v no_o other_o mean_n to_o get_v treasure_n but_o by_o foreign_a trade_n and_o that_o it_o must_v be_v do_v by_o make_v our_o commodity_n which_o be_v export_v to_o exceed_v in_o value_n the_o foreign_a ware_n which_o we_o consume_v so_o that_o if_o upon_o examination_n of_o the_o east-india_n trade_n as_o it_o be_v now_o manage_v it_o shall_v appear_v that_o we_o consume_v more_o of_o these_o foreign_a ware_n than_o be_v export_v of_o our_o own_o which_o be_v the_o quality_n of_o a_o spendthrift_n who_o spend_v beyond_o his_o mean_n the_o manager_n thereof_o aught_o to_o be_v bring_v to_o their_o primitive_a principle_n and_o grant_v the_o request_n the_o company_n then_o make_v to_o the_o house_n of_o commons_o in_o the_o prayer_n of_o their_o petition_n which_o be_v that_o if_o it_o be_v not_o a_o beneficial_a trade_n to_o the_o nation_n it_o may_v be_v suppress_v so_o that_o it_o do_v appear_v by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v that_o the_o east-india_n company_n in_o its_o primitive_a time_n do_v show_v that_o the_o benefit_n of_o this_o trade_n do_v consist_v only_o in_o its_o great_a exportation_n in_o value_n of_o our_o own_o ware_n than_o in_o the_o consumption_n of_o foreign_a now_o that_o the_o east-india_n trader_n do_v export_v less_o in_o value_n of_o our_o ware_n than_o be_v consume_v here_o of_o they_o be_v obvious_a to_o all_o that_o know_v any_o thing_n of_o that_o trade_n and_o be_v plain_o make_v to_o appear_v before_o the_o last_o parliament_n when_o the_o commons_o pass_v a_o bill_n for_o the_o restrain_v the_o consumption_n of_o part_n of_o those_o india_n ware_n and_o the_o lord_n think_v there_o be_v too_o little_o restrain_v as_o appear_v by_o the_o amendment_n make_v by_o their_o lordship_n to_o the_o say_a bill_n there_o be_v another_o mischief_n that_o do_v attend_v this_o trade_n and_o that_o be_v the_o great_a number_n of_o our_o people_n that_o be_v disable_v of_o follow_v their_o trade_n and_o be_v become_v a_o wander_a people_n some_o about_o the_o street_n for_o relief_n some_o to_o sea_n and_o some_o to_o other_o country_n to_o seek_v their_o fortune_n for_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o by_o so_o much_o as_o be_v consume_v of_o these_o foreign_a ware_n by_o so_o much_o our_o own_o be_v lessen_v and_o consequent_o the_o manufacturer_n be_v bring_v into_o great_a strait_n what_o a_o reproach_n will_v it_o be_v to_o this_o nation_n to_o see_v great_a number_n reduce_v to_o beggary_n or_o to_o leave_v their_o native_a country_n to_o satisfy_v the_o luxury_n of_o some_o that_o act_n as_o if_o they_o be_v make_v only_o for_o themselves_o i_o well_o remember_v the_o say_v of_o some_o stranger_n

now_o quite_o contrary_a because_o of_o the_o vast_a importation_n and_o consumption_n of_o those_o foreign_a wrought_a silk_n etc._n etc._n but_o especial_o those_o from_o china_n which_o have_v be_v import_v but_o of_o late_a year_n in_o such_o great_a quantity_n insomuch_o that_o they_o have_v thereby_o so_o clog_v the_o market_n that_o a_o very_a great_a quantity_n have_v remain_v unsold_a at_o the_o company_n last_o sale_n and_o by_o consequence_n there_o can_v be_v no_o trade_n for_o the_o weaver_n while_o the_o company_n magazine_n be_v store_v because_o they_o can_v work_v at_o such_o rate_n as_o in_o india_n where_o they_o can_v live_v for_o one_o penny_n a_o day_n this_o mischief_n will_v not_o only_o fall_v upon_o the_o silk_n manufacture_n but_o our_o own_o staple_n manufacture_n of_o wool_n which_o the_o farmer_n that_o have_v wool_n on_o their_o hand_n feel_v and_o be_v not_o like_a to_o end_v there_o but_o must_v needs_o fall_v heavy_a upon_o landlord_n and_o a_o multitude_n of_o poor_a that_o be_v and_o may_v be_v employ_v in_o that_o manufacture_n the_o silk_n manufacture_v in_o england_n be_v general_o the_o return_v of_o our_o woollen_a from_o turkey_n

and_o dyer_n but_o also_o many_o throwster_n who_o as_o well_o as_o the_o weaver_n employ_v man_n woman_n and_o child_n from_o the_o age_n of_o six_o year_n and_o upward_o so_o that_o a_o child_n from_o six_o year_n to_o eleven_o can_v get_v from_o eighteen_o penny_n to_o three_o shilling_n a_o week_n beside_o many_o thousand_o of_o seman_n wife_n who_o be_v use_v to_o get_v a_o livelihood_n in_o wind_v of_o silk_n at_o home_n whilst_o their_o husband_n be_v abroad_o at_o sea_n and_o so_o maintain_v their_o family_n whereas_o otherwise_o they_o must_v go_v upon_o tick_n or_o beg_v or_o

merchant_n find_v no_o vend_n for_o his_o silk_n and_o yarn_n which_o be_v the_o return_v for_o his_o clothes_n he_o will_v send_v no_o more_o and_o then_o the_o clothier_n feel_v the_o smart_n and_o when_o he_o can_v sell_v his_o cloth_n he_o will_v buy_v no_o wool_n and_o then_o the_o farmer_n feel_v it_o and_o when_o the_o farmer_n can_v turn_v his_o wool_n into_o money_n he_o can_v pay_v his_o rent_n and_o then_o the_o landlord_n have_v his_o feeling-part_n with_o the_o rest_n so_o as_o in_o the_o natural_a body_n when_o one_o member_n be_v wound_v it_o affect_v the_o whole_a body_n so_o
