opportunity_n of_o employ_v and_o enrich_v themselves_o the_o second_o exception_n or_o objection_n be_v that_o the_o genius_n of_o this_o nation_n will_v never_o endure_v the_o hardship_n of_o this_o employment_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o english_a do_v run_v great_a hazard_n and_o suffer_v great_a hardship_n in_o their_o long_a tedious_a and_o unhealthy_a voyage_n as_o to_o the_o east_n and_o the_o west-indies_n and_o the_o turkey_n voyages_n where_o many_o man_n be_v lose_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o climate_n want_v of_o provision_n and_o water_n which_o in_o the_o fishery_n there_o be_v none_o of_o these_o inconvenience_n to_o attend_v they_o they_o be_v so_o often_o in_o and_o out_o of_o port_n and_o as_o to_o labour_n the_o work_n of_o a_o mine_n be_v far_o beyond_o that_o of_o fish_v where_o the_o man_n sometime_o work_v up_o to_o the_o middle_a in_o water_n but_o to_o come_v near_o to_o the_o point_n the_o english_a be_v so_o far_o from_o have_v a_o aversion_n against_o fish_v that_o they_o apply_v themselves_o to_o it_o for_o example_n after_o harvest_n be_v in_o and_o the_o herring-season_n come_v on_o the_o country_n fellow_n and_o boy_n do_v go_v to_o the_o coast_v town_n to_o be_v hire_v into_o the_o fishery_n and_o do_v general_o take_v such_o a_o like_n to_o it_o that_o after_o 2_o or_o 3_o voyage_n they_o very_o rare_o return_v to_o their_o rural_a employment_n but_o take_v to_o the_o sea_n altogether_o and_o further_o i_o can_v imagine_v what_o hardship_n the_o hollander_n can_v undergo_v in_o the_o fish_n more_o than_o the_o english_a be_v willing_a to_o do_v this_o be_v another_o objection_n but_o this_o beyond_o all_o dispute_n be_v a_o very_a erroneous_a notion_n for_o the_o herring_n fish_v in_o the_o english_a sea_n begin_v in_o june_n and_o go_v out_o in_o november_n and_o that_o for_o the_o first_o four_o month_n it_o be_v the_o best_a time_n for_o profit_n pleasure_n and_o fair-weather_n for_o we_o seldom_o look_v out_o after_o the_o herring_n fish_v till_o september_n and_o so_o continue_v to_o the_o end_n of_o november_n which_o be_v the_o most_o tempestuous_a season_n in_o the_o whole_a annual_a and_o then_o in_o january_n we_o fit_v out_o for_o the_o north_n sea_n and_o spend_v the_o remain_a part_n of_o winter_n in_o all_o extremity_n of_o cold_a and_o hardship_n this_o be_v enough_o to_o satisfy_v that_o we_o be_v able_a to_o undergo_v as_o much_o hardship_n as_o the_o hollander_n but_o however_o i_o will_v strain_v this_o point_n a_o little_a further_o suppose_v that_o the_o winter_n fish_v will_v be_v too_o hard_a for_o we_o what_o excuse_v can_v we_o have_v for_o not_o make_v our_o improvement_n on_o the_o summer_n fish_v which_o be_v more_o advantageous_a abundant_o another_o objection_n be_v that_o the_o hollander_n can_v fare_v hard_o than_o the_o english_a in_o their_o course_n feed_v and_o great_a stress_n be_v lay_v upon_o this_o and_o that_o a_o english_a man_n will_v never_o be_v able_a to_o live_v on_o so_o spare_v a_o diet_n as_o they_o do_v now_o if_o it_o be_v so_o and_o that_o a_o english_a diet_n can_v not_o be_v have_v and_o that_o a_o dutch_a diet_n will_v not_o serve_v we_o but_o that_o be_v not_o our_o condition_n for_o he_o that_o can_v brook_v with_o the_o one_o may_v have_v the_o other_o and_o i_o be_o induce_v to_o believe_v that_o pork_n pease_n and_o beef_n be_v much_o better_a and_o more_o strengthen_v than_o root_n and_o cabbage_n for_o the_o hollander_n victual_v be_v the_o same_o with_o we_o for_o beer_n biscuite_n butter_n cheese_n all_o which_o we_o can_v provide_v ourselves_o with_o much_o cheaper_o than_o they_o and_o to_o make_v good_a the_o defect_n of_o their_o ordinary_a provision_n they_o drink_v a_o great_a deal_n more_o brandy_n than_o the_o english_a do_v so_o then_o to_o take_v one_o thing_n with_o another_o we_o victual_n with_o good_a provision_n as_o cheap_a or_o cheaper_o than_o they_o do_v but_o beside_o the_o very_a suggestion_n of_o leave_v a_o good_a diet_n to_o go_v to_o a_o bad_a be_v a_o very_a great_a error_n for_o the_o country_n man_n that_o enter_v themselves_o on_o board_n the_o fishery_n fare_v far_o better_o at_o sea_n than_o they_o do_v at_o land_n for_o beside_o their_o general_n victual_v which_o they_o carry_v with_o they_o to_o sea_n they_o feed_v upon_o the_o fish_n they_o catch_v which_o for_o variety_n be_v fresh_o take_v be_v a_o treat_n to_o what_o a_o person_n of_o quality_n have_v at_o his_o table_n a_o shoar_n and_o of_o

in_o no_o esteem_n abroad_o because_o we_o have_v not_o the_o right_a way_n to_o cure_v they_o second_o we_o shall_v never_o make_v nothing_o on_o it_o for_o the_o hollander_n will_v under-sell_a we_o for_o freight_v cheaper_o and_o consequent_o beat_v we_o out_o of_o the_o trade_n in_o answer_n to_o which_o first_o there_o be_v two_o way_n of_o cure_v the_o herring_n the_o one_o at_o sea_n where_o they_o be_v gip_v immediate_o upon_o their_o take_n and_o barrel_v the_o other_o at_o land_n where_o they_o be_v gip_v and_o pack_v some_o day_n after_o they_o be_v take_v these_o we_o call_v shoar-made-herring_n and_o we_o know_v very_o well_o that_o one_o barrel_n of_o the_o other_o for_o goodness_n be_v worth_a one_o hundred_o of_o these_o and_o that_o they_o will_v never_o take_v their_o pickle_n kind_o unless_o their_o throat_n be_v cut_v as_o soon_o as_o they_o be_v catch_v so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o great_a error_n to_o take_v a_o shoar-made-herring_n for_o a_o trial_n of_o skill_n in_o cure_v but_o for_o those_o that_o be_v make_v at_o sea_n they_o be_v make_v as_o good_a and_o as_o much_o in_o esteem_n abroad_o as_o any_o of_o the_o hollander_n herring_n and_o they_o have_v be_v frequent_o sell_v in_o the_o east-country_n for_o four_o pound_n a_o barrel_n and_o i_o can_v wish_v we_o be_v no_o more_o to_o blame_v for_o not_o take_v they_o than_o cure_v they_o but_o admit_v we_o do_v not_o know_v how_o to_o cure_v they_o i_o hope_v it_o be_v not_o impossible_a for_o the_o english_a to_o learn_v second_o the_o other_o notion_n be_v that_o the_o hollander_n will_v beat_v we_o off_o of_o our_o trade_n this_o be_v as_o erroneous_a as_o the_o rest_n and_o of_o no_o force_n at_o all_o against_o the_o fishery_n or_o it_o be_v much_o more_o force_n against_o the_o

consideration_n be_v to_o quit_v all_o navigation_n and_o leave_v ourselves_o to_o the_o mercy_n of_o the_o hollander_n or_o to_o be_v make_v a_o prey_n to_o any_o that_o will_v attack_v we_o and_o then_o to_o fear_v we_o shall_v want_v vent_n be_v to_o imagine_v that_o the_o people_n will_v leave_v off_o eat_v and_o a_o great_a part_n of_o the_o tradeing_n world_n be_v yet_o unserved_a with_o fish_n and_o it_o never_o can_v be_v make_v appear_v that_o our_o herring_n lay_v upon_o our_o hand_n for_o want_n of_o a_o market_n and_o since_o all_o these_o objection_n be_v sufficient_o answer_v there_o be_v nothing_o want_v but_o assume_v our_o ancient_a right_n and_o take_v possession_n of_o the_o fishery_n and_o notwithstanding_o it_o be_v so_o apparent_o make_v appear_v that_o this_o
