without_o who_o diligence_n and_o intelligence_n they_o have_v never_o be_v discover_v or_o seize_v therefore_o it_o be_v propose_v that_o in_o such_o case_n they_o may_v have_v no_o molestation_n

the_o french_a king_n do_v at_o this_o time_n do_v the_o same_o which_o have_v so_o encourage_v their_o privatier_n that_o they_o have_v fit_v out_o many_o ship_n of_o good_a force_n and_o much_o

encouragement_n will_v enable_v the_o concern_v to_o fit_v out_o better_a ship_n than_o now_o they_o have_v and_o get_v man_n to_o man_n they_o by_o contract_v to_o take_v care_n of_o all_o such_o

reason_n to_o make_v this_o remission_n of_o ten_o to_o the_o english_a private_a man_n of_o war_n than_o the_o french_a in_o regard_n of_o the_o prohibition_n and_o the_o small_a trade_n of_o france_n 6._o whereas_o it_o may_v be_v object_v that_o unless_o some_o officer_n be_v put_v on_o board_n each_o prize_n the_o private_a man_n of_o war_n will_v be_v at_o liberty_n to_o do_v what_o they_o please_v and_o such_o officer_n can_v be_v maintain_v without_o duty_n to_o bear_v the_o charge_n it_o be_v answer_v that_o each_o private_a man_n of_o war_n at_o the_o take_v out_o of_o his_o

and_o beside_o the_o encouragement_n of_o english_a private_a man_n of_o war_n will_v be_v very_o beneficial_a to_o this_o kingdom_n not_o only_o in_o the_o increase_v of_o custom_n and_o weaken_v the_o enemy_n as_o aforesaid_a but_o in_o breed_v of_o seaman_n they_o be_v oblige_v by_o their_o bond_n to_o carry_v two_o three_o landman_n and_o but_o one_o three_o of_o their_o compliment_n

hope_v it_o will_v not_o be_v think_v reasonable_a that_o the_o private_a interest_n of_o two_o or_o three_o person_n without_o advantage_n to_o the_o king_n or_o government_n shall_v be_v prefer_v before_o so_o great_a a_o public_a good_a as_o this_o encouragement_n will_v be_v both_o to_o the_o king_n and_o kingdom_n last_o it_o be_v demonstrable_a that_o this_o encouragement_n to_o

oftentimes_o bring_v in_o more_o custom_n to_o his_o majesty_n than_o the_o ten_o will_v amount_v to_o in_o a_o whole_a year_n so_o that_o both_o his_o majesty_n and_o subject_n will_v be_v much_o the_o gainer_n by_o this_o mean_n therefore_o it_o be_v to_o be_v hope_v these_o proposal_n will_v meet_v with_o their_o majesty_n compliance_n for_o that_o their_o majesty_n may_v at_o first_o give_v
