certain_a motive_n provocation_n and_o reason_n to_o incite_v to_o the_o present_a speedy_a take_n and_o apply_v the_o medicine_n to_o cure_v england_n insensible_a consumption_n by_o farthing_n

easy_a and_o cheap_a and_o in_o every_o trade_n own_o power_n among_o yourselves_o to_o effect_v it_o without_o trouble_v the_o parliament_n disobey_v his_o majesty_n proclamation_n harm_v your_o

help_n in_o the_o prosecution_n hereof_o and_o for_o the_o furhe_a encit_n you_o hereunto_o i_o entreat_v you_o to_o consider_v the_o unthought_a on_o loss_n that_o be_v upon_o the_o subject_n by_o token_n against_o his_o majesty_n intent_n in_o his_o proclamation_n wherein_o he_o only_o desire_v your_o ease_n and_o benefit_n by_o token_n second_o how_o every_o one_o that_o take_v or_o pay_v they_o under_o 21_o for_o 20_o be_v guilty_a of_o do_v much_o more_o wrong_a to_o his_o majesty_n the_o kingdom_n to_o posterity_n and_o neighbour_n then_o either_o the_o patentee_n or_o token-house_n do_v for_o indeed_o they_o have_v a_o lease_n for_o which_o they_o pay_v yearly_a rent_n do_v but_o as_o other_o do_v make_v the_o most_o of_o their_o commodity_n and_o when_o man_n speak_v to_o they_o of_o the_o wrong_n by_o token_n they_o say_v man_n may_v let_v they_o alone_o for_o they_o desire_v none_o to_o fetch_v they_o out_o but_o for_o their_o necessary_a exchange_n but_o the_o fault_n indeed_o be_v in_o almost_o all_o subject_n in_o general_a but_o most_o especial_o in_o all_o tradesman_n for_o indeed_o i_o know_v not_o how_o they_o can_v clear_v themselves_o from_o be_v either_o willing_o or_o ignorant_o thief_n to_o the_o kingdom_n or_o at_o least_o receiver_n and_o we_o use_v to_o say_v the_o receiver_n be_v as_o bad_a as_o the_o thief_n but_o herein_o they_o be_v worse_o although_o honest_a man_n in_o themselves_o than_o the_o thief_n for_o the_o thief_n gain_v by_o the_o evil_a of_o their_o practice_n and_o make_v themselves_o more_o able_a to_o lend_v to_o the_o king_n and_o parliament_n and_o give_v to_o the_o poor_a but_o the_o receiver_n and_o disperser_n to_o other_o make_v themselves_o and_o other_o more_o unable_a for_o all_o these_o again_o whereas_o other_o thief_n rob_v particular_a person_n these_o rob_v the_o king_n and_o all_o good_a subject_n for_o the_o wealth_n of_o a_o king_n be_v in_o the_o wealth_n and_o abundance_n of_o his_o subject_n and_o for_o a_o further_a motive_n consider_v how_o much_o this_o practice_n tend_v to_o the_o ruin_n of_o the_o kingdom_n till_o if_o not_o some_o way_n prevent_v your_o silver_n will_v be_v turn_v into_o copper_n or_o into_o nothing_o but_o the_o most_o of_o it_o will_v be_v consume_v into_o nothing_o for_o if_o you_o do_v but_o consider_v it_o you_o shall_v find_v that_o so_o many_o token_n as_o you_o take_v in_o one_o week_n so_o many_o you_o lose_v outright_o every_o one_o and_o twenty_o week_n or_o else_o you_o wrong_v your_o neighbour_n by_o cause_v they_o against_o their_o will_n and_o his_o majesty_n proclamation_n to_o take_v they_o and_o so_o you_o do_v not_o as_o you_o will_v be_v do_v unto_o which_o shall_v be_v our_o rule_n consider_v again_o how_o that_o they_o which_o let_v they_o lie_v by_o they_o and_o do_v not_o weekly_o exchange_v they_o do_v cause_n the_o great_a loss_n at_o last_o for_o the_o poor_a patentee_n be_v loath_a against_o their_o

which_o will_v increase_v your_o loss_n in_o general_a when_o they_o fall_v which_o of_o necessity_n they_o must_v one_o day_n do_v consider_v by_o relation_n there_o be_v now_o abroad_o about_o two_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n in_o token_n do_v any_o think_v they_o can_v change_v they_o all_o yet_o your_o keep_n so_o many_o by_o you_o cause_v they_o to_o have_v custom_n yet_o for_o more_o and_o by_o relation_n they_o do_v make_v after_o the_o rate_n of_o 26000_o pound_n a_o year_n if_o but_o 20_o consider_v first_o the_o two_o hundred_o thousand_o pound_n worth_a make_v will_v by_o a_o

all_o at_o last_o when_o they_o fall_v for_o than_o they_o will_v be_v but_o copper_n shruf_fw-fr again_o consider_v the_o long_o you_o drive_v off_o the_o prevent_n of_o this_o loss_n the_o great_a the_o loss_n will_v be_v see_v every_o year_n do_v add_v to_o the_o increase_n of_o your_o loss_n forty_o thousand_o pound_n so_o that_o if_o this_o year_n the_o loss_n be_v four_o hundred_o

all_o your_o silver_n be_v consume_v and_o become_v copper_n shruf_fw-fr again_o consider_v that_o the_o poor_a tradesman_n that_o lose_v but_o twelve_o penny_n a_o week_n it_o be_v more_o to_o they_o

and_o 7_o of_o it_o be_v token_n all_o which_o this_o course_n will_v soon_o prevent_v or_o put_v a_o end_n to_o if_o you_o set_v upon_o it_o and_o will_v make_v that_o there_o will_v never_o any_o

weekly_o as_o we_o ought_v to_o do_v do_v insensible_o rob_v the_o kingdom_n by_o every_o twenty_o shilling_n about_o eight_o or_o nine_o and_o forty_o shilling_n a_o year_n and_o as_o much_o by_o the_o same_o the_o next_o year_n and_o every_o year_n as_o long_o as_o they_o last_o as_o much_o for_o so_o many_o as_o a_o man_n take_v in_o one_o week_n so_o many_o he_o lose_v outright_o in_o 21_o week_n and_o as_o many_o more_o in_o 21_o week_n more_o but_o some_o rich_a man_n and_o other_o may_v say_v they_o never_o lose_v by_o token_n therefore_o they_o will_v not_o meddle_v in_o this_o work_n to_o have_v aught_o to_o do_v with_o it_o consider_v i_o beseech_v you_o if_o it_o be_v not_o all_o one_o as_o if_o london_n shall_v say_v the_o cavalier_n never_o plunder_v we_o therefore_o we_o will_v not_o prevent_v their_o enter_v the_o city_n or_o see_v some_o neighbour_n house_n burn_v down_o and_o other_o on_o fire_n shall_v say_v because_o it_o have_v not_o burn_v their_o house_n they_o will_v not_o endeavour_v the_o quench_v thereof_o but_o whereas_o rich_a man_n that_o trade_v not_o in_o small_a thing_n think_v they_o lose_v nothing_o i_o think_v they_o especial_o be_v like_a to_o lose_v the_o most_o although_o they_o feel_v it_o least_o for_o when_o thousand_o of_o poor_a tradesman_n be_v undo_v quite_o no_o one_o of_o they_o can_v lose_v much_o because_o they_o have_v very_o little_a of_o their_o own_o to_o lose_v but_o the_o special_a loss_n will_v be_v their_o landlord_n and_o creditor_n who_o house_n and_o good_n be_v in_o their_o possession_n who_o also_o after_o this_o must_v help_v to_o relieve_v those_o poor_a and_o their_o family_n but_o some_o may_v say_v the_o token-house_n will_v deliver_v 22_o for_o 20_o if_o we_o take_v this_o course_n for_o they_o stand_v they_o in_o little_a i_o answer_v so_o they_o will_v soon_o undo_v themselves_o for_o than_o they_o will_v soon_o have_v store_n of_o customer_n that_o will_v take_v out_o 22_o for_o 20_o and_o present_o take_v out_o twelve_o penny_n and_o send_v they_o again_o and_o enforce_v they_o as_o they_o be_v bind_v by_o their_o patent_n to_o give_v they_o twenty_o shilling_n in_o silver_n for_o 21_o of_o the_o 22_o shilling_n they_o have_v of_o they_o but_o far_a to_o the_o end_n the_o benefit_n of_o token_n may_v redound_v to_o the_o good_a of_o the_o whole_a kingdom_n it_o be_v desirable_a that_o the_o soldier_n have_v a_o good_a part_n of_o their_o pay_n of_o they_o twenty_o one_o for_o twenty_o i_o conceive_v they_o will_v be_v profitable_a for_o they_o and_o also_o for_o those-part_n of_o the_o kingdom_n that_o have_v former_o be_v abuse_v with_o token_n do_v now_o refuse_v to_o take_v they_o for_o exchange_n who_o if_o they_o hear_v of_o this_o course_n take_v to_o ease_v the_o grievance_n and_o prevent_v the_o increase_n of_o they_o they_o will_v be_v glad_a of_o they_o for_o exchange_n and_o so_o they_o shall_v have_v exchange_n and_o the_o city_n shall_v be_v ease_v of_o her_o burden_n and_o whereas_o some_o say_v they_o like_v the_o practice_n well_o and_o it_o be_v a_o certain_a good_a way_n but_o they_o be_v loath_a to_o have_v a_o hand_n in_o it_o because_o the_o parliament_n take_v the_o rent_n of_o the_o token-house_n for_o the_o kingdom_n occasion_n i_o answer_v shall_v we_o have_v such_o mean_a low_a thought_n of_o that_o honourable_a assembly_n to_o conceive_v that_o they_o shall_v not_o make_v their_o bargain_n sure_a for_o their_o rent_n but_o if_o not_o that_o they_o shall_v in_o the_o least_o desire_n that_o the_o
