whereas_o it_o be_v most_o evident_a that_o a_o wise_a and_o large_a establishment_n and_o a_o continue_a course_n of_o considerable_a trade_n be_v a_o sure_a way_n whereby_o any_o nation_n capable_a of_o it_o may_v attain_v to_o honour_n wealth_n and_o power_n because_o that_o thereby_o will_v arise_v first_o a_o great_a increase_n of_o money_n which_o answer_v all_o thing_n second_o a_o increase_n of_o people_n which_o be_v the_o strength_n of_o any_o kingdom_n or_o state_n and_o who_o do_v always_o gather_v to_o those_o place_n where_o money_n be_v in_o abundance_n and_o three_o a_o increase_n of_o ship_n which_o be_v the_o strong_a rampart_n of_o a_o island_n and_o by_o which_o merchandise_n be_v convey_v to_o the_o most_o profitable_a market_n it_o be_v therefore_o the_o undoubted_a interest_n of_o the_o people_n of_o ireland_n especial_o those_o who_o have_v the_o great_a estate_n whether_o of_o land_n or_o money_n to_o employ_v themselves_o to_o the_o improvement_n of_o trade_n as_o universal_o as_o be_v possible_a and_o it_o be_v humble_o conceive_v that_o this_o proposition_n need_v no_o other_o proof_n or_o illustration_n than_o what_o plain_o arise_v from_o the_o observation_n of_o those_o many_o and_o great_a advantage_n derive_v from_o trade_n to_o the_o kingdom_n of_o england_n the_o state_n of_o the_o unite_a province_n and_o all_o other_o kingdom_n and_o state_n that_o have_v apply_v themselves_o to_o commerce_n 2._o consideration_n the_o kingdom_n of_o ireland_n be_v as_o capable_a of_o make_v advantage_n by_o trade_n as_o any_o other_o kingdom_n or_o state_n be_v surround_v with_o good_a seaport_n upon_o all_o its_o coast_n and_o have_v a_o very_a great_a and_o profitable_a subject_n of_o trade_n proper_a to_o it_o the_o land_n afford_v grain_n cattle_n wool_n flax_n coal_n salt_n copper_n iron_n lead_v and_o other_o native_a product_n beside_o the_o fish_n of_o the_o river_n lough_n and_o sea_n this_o kingdom_n have_v likewise_o great_a number_n of_o people_n either_o not_o employ_v or_o not_o so_o full_o and_o profitable_o as_o may_v be_v and_o have_v also_o such_o a_o provision_n of_o ship_n as_o may_v serve_v to_o begin_v a_o trade_n and_o may_v soon_o be_v increase_v if_o a_o great_a trade_n be_v set_v up_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o consideration_n will_v appear_v by_o compare_v the_o particular_n therein_o contain_v with_o those_o of_o the_o unite_a province_n where_o the_o proper_a subject_n of_o trade_n come_v very_o far_o short_a of_o that_o of_o this_o kingdom_n which_o province_n from_o very_o small_a beginning_n and_o under_o the_o discouragement_n of_o a_o war_n with_o spain_n at_o that_o time_n the_o most_o potent_a kingdom_n of_o europe_n have_v yet_o raise_v themselves_o within_o a_o short_a period_n of_o year_n to_o that_o immense_a wealth_n grandeur_n and_o power_n that_o now_o they_o possess_v and_o have_v acquire_v it_o chief_o by_o their_o traffic_v in_o those_o subject_n of_o trade_n which_o proper_o belong_v to_o this_o and_o other_o nation_n 3._o consideration_n the_o people_n of_o this_o kingdom_n who_o have_v have_v liberal_a education_n be_v general_o in_o all_o country_n allow_v to_o be_v of_o sufficient_a ingenuity_n and_o diligence_n and_o the_o commons_o be_v docil_n and_o tractable_a and_o likewise_o robu_v and_o vigorous_a of_o body_n and_o sufficient_o incline_v to_o bestow_v their_o labour_n where_o there_o be_v prospect_n of_o moderate_a gain_n and_o be_v hitherto_o accustom_v to_o small_a wage_n it_o may_v just_o be_v conclude_v that_o no_o people_n in_o the_o world_n be_v natural_o more_o fit_v or_o better_o qualify_v for_o set_v up_o manage_v and_o prosecute_a a_o great_a and_o considerable_a trade_n 4._o consideration_n it_o be_v most_o certain_o true_a in_o fact_n nor_o can_v it_o be_v unknown_a to_o the_o intelligent_a in_o this_o nation_n that_o the_o great_a trade_n in_o the_o world_n be_v carry_v on_o not_o so_o

of_o their_o pain_n and_o application_n to_o traffic_n but_o most_o of_o all_o upon_o account_n of_o the_o reputation_n and_o opinion_n of_o the_o great_a profit_n make_v in_o the_o course_n of_o a_o prosperous_a trade_n even_o where_o the_o native_a and_o proper_a subject_n of_o trade_n keep_v no_o proportion_n with_o the_o trade_n carry_v on_o as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o unite_a province_n where_o credit_n be_v the_o chief_a instrument_n of_o their_o commerce_n and_o that_o credit_v raise_v upon_o a_o fund_z more_z of_o opinion_n or_o reputation_n than_o real_a if_o therefore_o in_o this_o kingdom_n the_o want_n of_o a_o sufficient_a stock_n of_o money_n for_o the_o carry_v on_o a_o great_a trade_n can_v be_v make_v up_o by_o a_o credit_n ground_v upon_o a_o more_o real_a and_o substantial_a fund_z than_o the_o credit_n of_o any_o other_o nation_n either_o at_o present_a be_v or_o probable_o can_v be_v found_v upon_o then_o certain_o it_o will_v most_o reasonable_o follow_v that_o this_o kingdom_n be_v rather_o more_o capable_a of_o carry_v on_o great_a and_o national_a trade_n than_o most_o other_o kingdom_n or_o state_n in_o europe_n 5._o consideration_n the_o title_n

the_o record_n here_o in_o use_n and_o that_o the_o title_n be_v dependant_a on_o late_a act_n of_o parliament_n and_o a_o evident_a clear_a and_o firm_a security_n upon_o land_n be_v the_o best_a and_o most_o substantial_a fund_z of_o credit_n this_o kingdom_n be_v capable_a in_o this_o respect_n to_o raise_v a_o credit_n sufficient_a for_o improve_n to_o the_o uttermost_a the_o great_a subject_n of_o trade_n that_o now_o it_o unprofitable_o possess_v and_o this_o credit_n as_o far_o to_o exceed_v that_o in_o practice_n with_o other_o nation_n as_o a_o real_a solid_a and_o
