but_o little_a timber_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o own_o fatal_a ill_a husbandry_n so_o that_o for_o want_v of_o iron_n and_o timber_n our_o ship_n will_v be_v dear_a continual_o and_o we_o behold_v to_o other_o for_o material_n the_v of_o very_o pernicious_a consequence_n i_o well_o remember_v i_o have_v somewhere_o read_v in_o history_n that_o edgar_n king_n of_o england_n do_v take_v great_a

linen_n cloth_n both_o together_o viz._n both_o these_o commodity_n may_v be_v buy_v cheap_a from_o a_o broad_a than_o we_o can_v make_v they_o at_o home_n and_o doubtless_o it_o be_v the_o best_a

have_v those_o commodity_n from_o beyond_o the_o sea_n cheap_a at_o present_a than_o yet_o they_o can_v be_v buy_v be_v make_v at_o home_n yet_o i_o conceive_v if_o we_o will_v industrious_o set_v upon_o it_o it_o may_v in_o short_a time_n be_v otherwise_o and_o beside_o it_o be_v much_o better_a husbandry_n to_o give_v twenty_o pound_n for_o that_o of_o our_o own_o growth_n than_o but_o fifteen_o for_o what_o come_v from_o beyond_o the_o sea_n because_o in_o the_o last_o case_n our_o money_n be_v quite_o go_v and_o will_v return_v no_o more_o in_o the_o first_o it_o still_o remain_v within_o the_o nation_n and_o will_v come_v again_o and_o beside_o employ_v thousand_o of_o his_o majesty_n subject_n that_o otherwise_o be_v chargeable_a and_o burdensome_a and_o as_o by_o one_o trade_n money_n decrease_v so_o by_o the_o other_o money_n will_v increase_v when_o our_o commodity_n be_v for_o treasure_n export_v and_o easy_o it_o be_v to_o part_v with_o twenty_o pound_n when_o money_n be_v plenty_n than_o with_o fifteen_o when_o money_n be_v scarce_o as_o at_o present_a obj._n but_o if_o it_o be_v far_o object_v that_o i_o be_o all_o this_o while_n mistake_v for_o that_o it_o be_v not_o money_n but_o good_n that_o pay_v for_o all_o these_o commodity_n by_o mean_n whereof_o we_o have_v the_o better_a trade_n for_o what_o we_o have_v to_o spare_v but_o if_o this_o

whereunto_o i_o humble_o answer_v that_o i_o still_o conceive_v otherwise_o and_o that_o the_o objection_n be_v under_o a_o mistake_n for_o what_o the_o nation_n have_v now_o to_o spare_v and_o fit_a for_o exportation_n be_v much_o less_o than_o be_v forty_o or_o fifty_o year_n ago_o as_o aforesaid_a and_o yet_o then_o when_o none_o of_o these_o thing_n with_o many_o more_o do_v come_v into_o the_o kingdom_n there_o be_v a_o better_a trade_n by_o far_o than_o what_o be_v now_o for_o commodity_n than_o go_v for_o commodity_n of_o great_a worth_n without_o part_v with_o any_o money_n and_o in_o those_o day_n our_o commodity_n go_v far_o from_o home_n and_o instead_o of_o brandy_n iron_n and_o the_o like_a produce_v far_o better_a return_n so_o that_o then_o both_o silver_n and_o gold_n not_o original_o produce_v in_o england_n be_v very_o plenty_n but_o now_o our_o money_n and_o commodity_n be_v carry_v forth_o and_o in_o conclusion_n turn_v to_o little_a or_o no_o account_n and_o unless_o our_o commodity_n for_o exportation_n do_v increase_v answerable_a to_o the_o increase_n of_o commodity_n import_v as_o it_o be_v most_o certain_o true_a that_o they_o do_v not_o then_o of_o
