be_o a_o lover_n of_o mathematical_a learning_n because_o it_o premise_n its_o principle_n before_o man_n begin_v to_o learn_v or_o reason_n from_o they_o whereas_o otherwise_o where_o man_n begin_v dispute_v they_o proceed_v and_o end_v in_o contention_n and_o wrangle_a and_o i_o say_v that_o trade_n be_v a_o principle_n to_o navigation_n but_o above_o all_o the_o fish_n trade_n and_o therefore_o as_o you_o increase_v your_o trade_n so_o you_o may_v infinite_o increase_v your_o navigation_n and_o as_o trade_n be_v a_o principle_n to_o navigation_n so_o be_v navigation_n a_o principle_n to_o maintain_v the_o dominion_n of_o the_o sea_n and_o therefore_o so_o much_o as_o the_o trade_n of_o england_n be_v lessen_v so_o much_o will_v the_o king_n be_v less_o able_a to_o maintain_v the_o dominion_n of_o the_o sea_n upon_o the_o coast_n of_o england_n and_o scotland_n and_o this_o will_v be_v in_o a_o double_a proportion_n for_o so_o much_o as_o we_o lose_v in_o
