NOVA
BRITANNIA
.
Offering
most
excellent
fruites
by
Planting
in
VIRGINIA
.
WHereas
in
our
last
méeting
and
conference
the
other
day
,
obseruing
your
sufficient
reasons
answering
all
obiections
,
and
your
constant
resolution
to
go
on
in
our
Plantation
,
they
gaue
me
so
good
content
and
satisfaction
,
that
I
am
driuen
against
my selfe
,
to
confesse
mine
own
error
in
standing
out
so
long
,
whereby
many
of
you
(
my
frends
)
were
engaged
in
the
businesse
before
mée
,
at
whose
often
instigations
I
was
but
little
moued
,
and
lightly
estéemed
of
it
till
being
in
place
,
where
obseruing
the
wise
and
prudent
spéech
,
of
a
worthy
Gentleman
,
(
well
knowne
to
you
all
)
a
most
painful
mannager
of
such
publike
affayres
within
this
Cittie
,
which
moued
so
effectually
,
touching
the
publike
vtilitie
of
this
noble
enterprize
,
that
withholding
no
longer
,
I
yéelded
my
money
aad
endeuours
as
others
did
to
aduance
the
same
,
and
now
vpon
more
aduised
consideration
,
I
must
néedes
say
I
neuer
accompted
my
poore
meanes
employed
to
better
purpose
,
then
(
by
Gods
helpe
)
the
successe
of
this
may
bee
,
and
therefore
I
cannot
but
deliuer
(
if
you
please
to
heare
)
what
I
rudely
conceiue
of
a
suddaine
.
There
are
diuers
monuments
already
publisht
in
Print
to
the
world
▪
manifesting
and
shewing
,
that
the
Coasts
and
parts
of
Virginia
haue
beene
long
since
discouered
,
peopled
and
possessed
by
many
English
,
both
men
,
women
,
and
children
,
the
naturall
subiects
of
our
late
Queene
Elizabeth
,
of
famous
memorie
,
conducted
and
left
there
at
sundrie
times
,
And
that
the
same
footing
and
possession
is
there
kept
and
possessed
by
the
same
English
▪
or
by
their
seede
and
of-spring
,
without
any
interruption
or
inuasion
,
either
of
the
Sauages
(
the
natiues
of
the
countrie
)
or
of
any
other
Prince
or
people
(
for
ought
wee
●eare
or
know
)
to
this
day
,
which
argueth
sufficiently
to
vs
(
and
it
is
true
)
that
ouer
those
English
and
Indian
people
,
no
Christian
King
or
Prince
(
other
then
Iames
our
Soueraigne
Lord
and
King
)
ought
to
haue
rule
or
Dominion
,
or
can
by
possession
,
conquest
,
or
inheritance
,
truely
claime
or
make
iust
title
to
those
Territories
,
or
to
any
part
thereof
,
except
it
bee
(
as
wee
heare
of
late
)
that
a
challenge
is
laid
to
all
,
by
vertue
of
a
Donation
from
Alexander
the
sixt
,
Pope
of
Rome
,
wherein
(
they
say
)
is
giuen
all
the
West
Indies
,
including
Florida
and
Virginia
,
with
all
America
,
and
whatsoeuer
Ilands
adiacent
.
But
what
is
this
to
vs
?
they
are
blind
indeede
that
stumble
here
,
it
is
much
like
that
great
donation
of
Constantine
whereby
the
Pope
himselfe
doeth
hold
and
claime
the
Citie
of
Rome
,
and
all
the
Westerne
Empire
,
a
thing
that
so
crosseth
all
Histories
of
truth
,
and
sound
Antiquitie
,
that
by
the
apt
resemblance
of
those
two
Donations
,
the
whole
West
Empire
,
from
a
temporall
Prince
to
the
Pope
,
and
the
whole
West
Indies
,
from
the
Pope
to
a
temporall
Prince
▪
I
doe
verily
gesse
they
be
neere
of
kinne
,
they
are
so
like
each
other
,
the
one
an
olde
tale
vaine
and
fabulous
,
the
other
a
new
toy
most
idle
and
ridiculous
.
When
the
flatterers
of
Cambises
King
of
Persia
,
could
find
no
law
to
warrant
his
immoderate
lust
and
incestuous
mariage
with
his
owne
daughter
,
yet
they
told
him
of
another
law
which
they
had
found
,
wherby
the
Kings
of
Persia
might
doe
what
they
listed
:
if
in
these
cases
likewise
there
bee
a
law
that
the
Pope
may
doe
what
he
list
,
let
them
that
list
obey
him
,
for
we
beleeue
not
in
him
.
Letting
goe
(
therefore
)
these
legendarie
fables
,
which
howsoeuer
some
men
holde
authenticke
as
their
Creede
,
yet
are
they
in
the
iudgement
of
wise
men
,
things
of
no
value
,
nor
doe
import
to
vs
,
any
cause
of
doubt
or
feare
,
but
that
wee
goe
on
in
our
honest
enterprise
,
and
lawfull
purpose
now
in
hand
,
that
(
as
wee
hope
)
his
Maiestie
mindeth
not
the
reliquishing
his
estate
and
enterest
,
deriued
to
him
by
right
of
succession
,
from
his
immediate
predecessor
,
but
for
the
further
planting
and
succouring
our
old
Colony
,
hath
giuen
vs
leaue
to
make
new
supplies
,
which
wee
lately
sent
thither
vnder
the
conduct
of
Christopher
Newport
Captaine
:
And
hath
granted
many
gratious
priuiledges
,
vnder
the
great
Seale
,
to
vs
and
to
our
Heirs
for
euer
,
that
will
aduenture
or
plant
in
the
said
plantation
:
So
I
wish
and
intreat
all
well
affected
subiects
,
some
in
their
persons
,
others
in
their
purses
,
cheerefully
to
aduenture
,
and
ioyntly
take
in
hand
this
high
and
acceptable
worke
,
tending
to
aduance
and
spread
the
Kingdome
of
God
,
and
the
knowledge
of
the
truth
,
among
so
many
millions
of
men
and
women
,
Sauage
and
blind
,
that
neuer
yet
saw
the
true
light
shine
before
their
eyes
,
to
enlighten
their
minds
and
comfort
their
soules
,
as
also
for
the
honour
of
our
King
,
and
enlarging
of
his
kingdome
,
and
for
preseruation
and
defence
of
that
small
number
our
friends
and
countrimen
already
planted
,
least
for
want
of
more
supplies
we
become
a
scorne
to
the
world
▪
subiecting
our
former
aduentures
to
apparant
spoile
and
hazard
,
and
our
people
(
as
a
prey
)
to
be
sackt
and
puld
out
of
possession
,
as
were
the
French
out
of
Noua
Francia
,
not
many
yers
ago
▪
and
which
is
the
lest
and
last
respect
▪
(
yet
vsuallie
preferred
)
for
the
singular
good
and
benefite
that
wil
vndoubtedly
arise
to
this
whole
Nation
,
and
to
euerie
one
of
vs
in
particular
,
that
will
aduenture
therein
,
as
by
true
relation
(
God
willing
)
I
shal
make
it
manifestly
appeare
to
all
.
It
is
knowne
to
the
world
,
and
cannot
bee
forgotten
,
that
the
dayes
and
raigne
of
Queene
Elizabeth
,
brought
forth
the
highest
degree
of
wealth
,
happinesse
,
and
honour
,
that
euer
England
had
before
her
time
,
whereof
to
let
passe
the
particular
praises
,
as
impertinent
to
my
purpose
,
I
doe
onely
call
to
minde
our
Royall
Fleetes
and
Marchants
Shippes
,
(
the
Iewels
of
our
land
)
our
excellent
Nauigators
,
and
admirable
voyages
,
as
into
all
parts
and
round
about
the
Globe
with
good
successe
,
to
the
high
fame
and
glorie
of
our
Nation
,
so
especially
their
aime
and
course
was
most
directed
to
the
new
found
world
,
to
the
maine
land
and
infinite
Ilands
of
the
West
Indies
,
intending
to
discouer
with
what
conuenience
to
Plant
and
settle
English
Colonies
,
in
places
not
already
possessed
and
inhabited
by
subiects
of
other
Christian
Princes
,
wherein
after
many
tedious
and
perilous
aduentures
,
howsoeuer
strange
seas
and
miserable
famine
,
had
deuoured
and
distressed
shipps
and
men
of
inestimable
value
,
yet
were
not
the
remnant
escaping
,
swallowed
vp
of
despaire
,
nor
their
hart
and
spirits
daunted
with
feare
,
but
daily
armed
afresh
with
inuincible
courage
,
and
greater
resolution
(
scorning
to
sit
downe
by
their
losses
)
made
newe
attempts
,
not
induring
to
looke
on
whilst
so
huge
and
spacious
countries
(
the
fourth
part
of
the
world
)
and
the
greatest
and
wealthiest
part
of
all
the
rest
,
should
remaine
a
wildernes
,
subiect
(
for
the
most
part
)
but
to
wilde
beasts
and
fowles
of
the
ayre
,
and
to
sauage
people
,
which
haue
no
Christian
,
nor
ciuill
vse
of
any
thing
,
and
that
the
subiects
onely
of
one
Prince
Christian
,
which
but
within
the
memorie
of
man
began
first
to
creepe
vpon
the
face
of
those
Territories
,
&
now
by
meanes
of
their
remnants
settled
here
&
there
,
do
therfore
imagine
the
world
to
be
theirs
,
shouldring
out
al
other
nations
,
accounting
themselues
Kings
and
Commanders
,
not
onely
in
townes
and
places
where
they
haue
planted
,
but
ouer
all
other
partes
of
America
,
which
containe
sundrie
vast
and
barbarous
Regions
,
many
of
which
(
to
this
day
)
they
neuer
knew
,
nor
did
euer
setle
soote
therein
:
which
notwithstanding
,
if
it
were
yeelded
them
as
due
,
yet
their
strength
and
meanes
farre
inferiour
to
their
aspires
,
will
neuer
stretch
to
compasse
or
replenish
the
hundreth
part
thereof
:
and
this
we
proued
true
not
many
yeares
agoe
,
our
Prince
and
theirs
being
then
at
open
hostilitie
,
their
best
and
chiefest
residences
were
scattered
with
so
poore
and
slender
troups
,
that
with
handfuls
of
men
(
at
sundry
times
)
we
ran
thorow
all
,
surprizing
and
sacking
their
strongest
forts
and
townes
in
those
parts
,
and
might
long
since
with
ease
,
following
and
seconding
our
forces
,
haue
set
them
to
their
stint
.
But
seeing
we
so
passed
by
their
dwellings
,
that
in
seatinḡ
our selues
,
wee
sought
not
to
vnsetle
them
,
but
by
Gods
mercy
,
after
many
stormes
▪
were
brought
to
the
Coast
of
another
countrie
,
farre
distant
and
remote
from
their
habitations
:
why
should
any
frowne
or
enuie
at
it
,
or
if
they
doe
,
why
should
wee
(
neglecting
so
faire
an
opportunitie
)
faint
or
feare
to
enlarge
our selues
,
where
is
our
force
and
auncient
vigour
?
Doth
our
late
reputation
sleepe
in
the
dust
?
No
,
no
,
let
not
the
world
deceiue
it selfe
,
we
still
remaine
the
same
,
and
vpon
iust
occasion
giuen
,
we
shall
quickly
shew
it
too
:
hauing
now
by
Gods
blessing
,
more
meanes
then
euer
heeretofore
,
beeing
strongly
senced
where
wee
wonted
to
lie
open
:
Our
plant
,
we
trust
,
is
firmely
root●d
,
our
armes
and
limmes
are
strong
,
our
branches
faire
,
and
much
desire
to
spread
themselues
abroad
.
But
before
I
come
to
discribe
this
earthly
Paradice
,
or
to
proue
the
points
of
my
proposition
mentioned
before
,
you
shall
knowe
,
that
the
first
discouery
and
actuall
possession
taken
thereof
,
was
in
the
raigne
,
and
by
the
subiects
of
Henry
the
seuenth
of
England
,
at
which
time
did
Spaine
also
discouer
,
and
by
that
right
of
discouery
,
doeth
retaine
and
holde
their
Noua
Hispania
,
and
all
other
their
limmits
vpon
that
Coast
:
But
that
we
now
intend
to
ground
vpon
is
a
more
late
Discouerie
and
actuall
possession
,
taken
in
the
name
and
right
of
Queene
Elizabeth
,
in
Anno
1584.
the
13
▪
of
Iuly
,
as
it
is
truely
set
downe
in
the
Booke
of
English
Uoyages
,
by
sundry
English
Captaines
and
Gentlemen
in
that
Uoyage
,
whose
names
are
recorded
in
that
Discourse
(
and
many
of
which
are
yet
liuing
)
whereof
when
her
Maiestie
had
true
information
,
shée
named
the
Countrey
Virginia
,
and
did
assigne
to
Walter
Raleigh
(
then
a
Gentleman
of
worth
)
power
and
Authoritie
to
Plant
forces
and
Colonies
there
,
at
his
pleasure
,
who
transported
thither
in
Anno
1587.
by
the
conduct
of
Iohn
White
chiefe
Leader
,
aboue
an
hundred
men
,
Women
,
and
Children
at
one
time
,
and
left
them
there
to
Inhabite
to
this
day
:
Notwithstanding
,
it
is
true
indéede
(
as
some
may
obiect
.
)
It
is
now
aboue
twentie
yéeres
agoe
since
these
things
were
done
,
and
yet
euer
since
in
al
this
time
,
we
neuer
sawe
or
heard
of
any
good
that
hath
come
from
thence
,
nor
of
any
hope
,
that
might
encourage
vs
anew
to
engage
our selues
therein
.
But
let
vs
rightly
weigh
the
reasons
of
it
,
and
then
iudge
:
Those
hundred
and
vpwards
,
conducted
thither
by
Iohn
White
,
and
whose
particular
Names
you
may
sée
Recorded
in
the
same
Booke
of
Uoyages
,
were
left
there
,
with
intent
and
promise
,
to
be
supplied
from
England
,
with
more
companies
and
all
necessaries
,
the
next
yéere
following
:
in
the
meane
time
,
they
were
to
Plant
and
fortifie
themselues
in
be●t
maner
they
could
,
and
to
make
a
Discouerie
of
such
Minerals
,
and
other
Merchandize
,
as
the
Countrey
should
yéeld
by
nature
.
But
as
all
good
Actions
haue
their
Crosses
and
their
Bane
attending
on
them
,
so
had
this
:
for
that
those
which
had
the
Managing
of
a
new
Supply
,
being
the
next
yéere
sufficiently
furnished
to
Sea
for
that
ende
,
yet
most
vnnaturally
,
being
Tainted
with
that
common
corruption
of
time
,
turned
their
head
another
way
,
and
with
greedie
minds
,
betooke
themselues
wholly
to
hunt
after
Pillage
vpon
the
Spanish
Coast
,
where
spending
their
men
,
their
time
,
and
prouisions
,
they
were
not
able
(
béeing
come
and
ariued
at
the
port
)
to
make
vp
into
the
land
to
visit
and
relieue
their
friends
,
but
were
forced
to
retire
for
England
againe
,
whereby
the
edge
of
those
Aduenturers
that
set
them
foorth
was
so
abated
,
that
this
most
honourable
enterprise
so
happily
begunne
,
was
by
this
occasion
most
vnhappily
ended
,
neither
had
our
poore
countri-men
left
there
,
any
meanes
from
thence
to
visite
vs
,
nor
in
all
this
time
to
giue
vs
any
light
of
their
owne
estate
:
whereas
then
,
if
those
beginnings
had
béene
followed
as
they
ought
,
and
as
by
Gods
helpe
wée
now
entend
,
that
country
had
long
since
become
a
most
royall
addition
to
the
Crowne
of
England
,
and
a
very
nursery
and
fountaine
of
much
wealth
and
strength
to
this
Kingdome
.
When
Christopher
Columbus
(
the
first
bewrayer
of
this
new
world
)
was
to
make
his
proffer
where
he
liked
best
,
hee
chose
Henry
the
seuenth
of
England
,
as
in
those
dayes
the
most
worthy
,
and
best
furnished
for
Nauigations
,
of
all
the
Kings
in
Christendome
:
offering
to
inuest
his
Maiestie
with
the
most
pretious
and
richest
●aines
of
the
whole
earth
,
neuer
knowne
before
,
as
he
did
also
the
like
to
the
Kings
of
Portugale
and
Spaine
,
who
(
as
the
story
saith
)
for
his
poore
apparell
and
simple
lookes
,
and
for
the
noueltie
of
his
proposition
,
was
of
most
men
accounted
a
vaine
foole
,
and
vtterly
reiected
:
saue
that
the
Spanish
better
conceiuing
then
some
others
,
beganne
to
entertaine
and
make
vse
of
his
skill
,
which
within
these
hundred
yeares
,
hath
brought
foorth
those
apparant
fruits
to
the
world
as
cannot
be
hidde
.
Their
Territories
enlarged
,
their
Nauigations
encreased
,
their
subiects
enriched
,
and
their
superfluitie
of
coyne
ouer-spreading
al
parts
of
the
world
,
procures
their
Crowne
to
flourish
,
and
highly
commendeth
the
wisedome
of
Spaine
:
whose
quicke
apprehension
and
spéedy
addresse
,
preuented
all
other
Princes
:
albeit
(
as
you
know
)
their
greatnes
of
minde
arising
together
with
their
money
and
meanes
,
hath
〈◊〉
all
Christendome
these
fourtie
yeares
and
more
.
And
this
I
but
mention
,
to
note
the
blind
diffidence
of
our
English
natures
,
which
laugh
to
scorne
the
name
of
Virginia
,
and
all
other
new
proiects
,
bee
they
neuer
so
probable
,
and
will
not
beleeue
till
wee
sée
the
effects
:
as
also
to
shew
how
capable
men
ought
to
bee
,
in
things
of
great
importance
,
aduisedly
to
take
the
first
occasions
.
We
reade
of
Haniball
,
when
chasing
home
the
Romanes
to
the
gates
of
Rome
,
and
neglecting
then
to
scale
the
walles
,
could
neuer
after
with
all
his
strength
and
policies
come
neere
the
like
aduantage
:
yet
I
must
briefely
tell
you
now
,
what
I
conceiue
with
ioy
,
that
howsoeuer
the
businesse
of
this
plantation
hath
beene
formerly
miscaried
,
yet
it
is
now
going
on
in
better
way
,
not
enterprised
by
one
or
two
priuate
subiects
,
who
in
their
greatnesse
of
minde
,
sought
to
compasse
that
,
which
rather
beseemed
a
mighty
Prince
,
(
such
as
ours
)
or
the
whole
State
to
take
in
hand
:
for
it
is
not
vnknowen
to
you
all
,
how
many
Noble
men
of
Honourable
mindes
,
how
many
worthy
Knights
,
Merchants
,
and
others
of
the
best
disposition
,
are
now
ioyned
together
in
one
Charter
,
to
receiue
equall
priuiledges
,
according
to
their
seuerall
aduentures
:
euery
man
engaging
his
purse
,
and
some
Noble-men
,
Knights
and
Gentlemen
,
intending
to
goe
in
their
owne
persons
,
which
I
did
hears
to
protest
and
vow
,
against
anie
people
,
whomsoeuer
shall
any
way
seeke
to
entrappe
or
impeach
our
proceedings
,
an
vtter
reuenge
vpon
their
bodies
or
goods
,
if
they
be
to
bee
found
vpon
Sea
or
land
:
whereby
we
haue
assured
hope
(
God
assisting
vs
)
to
be
effectually
able
to
make
good
against
all
,
and
in
short
time
to
bring
to
a
most
happy
euent
the
thing
we
take
in
hand
.
And
now
in
discribing
the
naturall
seate
and
disposition
of
the
countrie
it selfe
:
if
I
should
say
no
more
but
with
Caleb
and
Ioshua
,
The
land
which
we
haue
searched
out
is
a
very
good
land
,
if
the
Lord
loue
vs
,
he
will
bring
our
people
to
it
,
and
will
giue
it
vs
for
a
possession
.
This
were
enough
to
you
that
are
willing
,
but
yet
a
little
more
in
particular
obserued
,
by
the
best
Mappes
and
Printed
discourses
,
and
by
conference
of
such
as
haue
béene
lately
there
and
séene
it
,
I
thinke
good
to
deliuer
to
satisfie
others
:
First
the
Uoyage
is
not
long
nor
tedious
,
sixe
Wéekes
at
ease
will
send
vs
thither
,
whereas
sixe
Moneths
suffice
not
to
some
other
places
,
where
wee
Trade
:
our
course
and
passage
is
thorow
the
great
Ocean
,
where
is
no
feare
of
Rockes
or
Flattes
,
nor
subiect
to
the
streighte
and
restraint
of
forraine
Princes
,
most
Winds
that
blow
,
are
apt
and
fit
for
vs
,
and
none
can
hinder
vs
:
when
wee
come
to
the
Coast
,
there
is
continuall
depth
enough
,
with
good
Bottome
for
Anchor
hold
,
and
the
Land
is
faire
to
fall
with
all
,
full
of
excellent
good
Harbours
:
the
world
affoords
no
better
for
Ships
of
all
burdens
,
many
pleasant
Ilands
great
and
small
affronting
the
Coast
:
Two
goodly
Riuers
are
discouered
winding
farre
into
the
Maine
,
the
one
in
the
North
part
of
the
Land
by
our
Westerne
Colonie
,
Knights
and
Gentlemen
of
Excester
,
Plymouth
and
others
:
The
other
in
the
South
part
thereof
by
our
Colonie
of
London
:
Upon
which
Riuer
,
being
both
broad
,
déepe
and
pleasant
,
abounding
with
store
of
fish
,
our
Colony
haue
begun
to
fortifie
themselues
,
and
haue
built
a
towne
,
and
named
it
(
in
honour
of
our
King
)
Iames
towne
fourescore
miles
within
land
,
vpon
the
North
side
of
the
Riuer
(
as
is
London
vpon
the
Riuer
of
Thames
)
from
whence
wee
haue
discouered
the
same
Riuer
,
one
hundred
myles
further
into
the
mayne
Land
,
in
the
searching
whereof
,
they
were
so
rauisht
with
the
admirable
sweetnesse
of
the
streame
,
and
with
the
pleasant
land
trending
along
on
either
side
,
that
their
ioy
excéeded
and
with
great
admiration
they
praised
God
.
The
country
it selfe
is
large
and
great
assuredly
,
though
as
yet
,
no
exact
discouerie
can
bee
made
of
all
,
It
is
also
commendable
,
and
hopefull
euerie
way
,
the
ayre
and
clymate
most
swéete
and
wholsome
,
much
warmer
then
England
,
and
very
agréeable
to
our
Natures
:
It
is
inhabited
with
wild
and
sauage
people
,
that
liue
and
lie
vp
and
downe
in
troupes
,
like
heards
of
Deare
in
a
Forrest
:
they
haue
no
law
but
nature
,
their
apparell
skinnes
of
beasts
,
but
most
goe
naked
:
the
better
sort
haue
houses
,
but
poore
ones
,
they
haue
no
Arte
nor
Science
,
yet
they
liue
vnder
superior
commaund
,
such
as
it
is
,
they
are
generally
very
louing
and
gentle
,
and
doe
entertaine
and
relieue
our
people
with
great
kindnesse
:
they
are
easie
to
be
brought
to
good
,
and
would
fayne
embrace
a
better
condition
:
the
land
yeeldeth
naturallie
for
the
sustentation
of
man
,
aboundance
of
fish
,
both
scale
and
shell
:
of
land
and
water
fowles
,
infinite
store
:
of
Deere
,
Rain●
and
fallow
,
Stags
,
Coneys
,
and
Hares
,
with
many
fruits
and
rootes
good
for
meate
.
There
are
valleyes
and
plaines
streaming
with
sweets
Springs
,
like
veynes
in
a
naturall
bodie
:
there
are
hills
and
mountaines
making
a
sensible
proffer
of
hidden
treasure
,
neuer
yet
searched
:
the
land
is
full
of
mineralles
,
plentie
of
woods
(
the
wants
of
England
)
there
are
growing
goodly
Okes
and
Elmes
,
●eech
and
Birch
,
Spruce
,
Walnut
,
Cedar
and
Firre
trees
,
in
great
aboundance
,
the
soile
is
strong
and
lustie
of
it
owne
nature
,
and
sendeth
out
naturally
fruitfull
Uines
running
vpon
trees
,
and
shrubbes
:
it
yeeldeth
also
Ro●●n
,
Turpentine
,
Pitch
and
Tarre
,
Sassafras
,
Mulbery-trees
and
Silke-wormes
,
many
Skinnes
and
rich
Furres
,
many
sweete
woodes
,
and
Dyers
woodes
,
and
other
costly
dyes
:
plenty
of
Sturgion
,
Timber
for
Shipping
▪
Mast
,
Plancke
and
Deale
,
Sope
ashes
,
Cauiare
,
and
what
else
we
know
not
yet
,
because
our
daies
are
yong
.
But
of
this
that
I
haue
said
,
if
bare
nature
be
so
amiable
in
it
naked
kind
,
what
may
we
hope
,
when
Arte
and
Nature
both
shall
ioyne
,
and
striue
together
,
to
giue
best
content
to
man
and
beast
?
as
now
in
handling
the
seuerall
parts
propounded
,
I
shall
shew
in
order
as
they
lie
.
For
the
first
(
if
I
forget
not
my selfe
)
how
it
may
tend
to
aduance
the
Kingdome
of
God
,
by
reducing
sauage
people
from
their
blind
superstition
to
the
light
of
Religion
,
when
some
obiect
,
wee
seeke
nothing
lesse
then
the
cause
of
God
,
being
led
on
by
our
owne
priuate
ends
,
and
secondly
how
we
can
warrant
a
supplantation
of
those
Indians
,
or
an
inuasion
into
their
right
and
possessions
.
To
the
first
we
say
,
as
many
actions
both
good
in
themselues
,
and
in
their
successe
,
haue
béene
performed
with
badde
intents
:
so
in
this
case
,
howsoeuer
our
naughtines
of
minde
may
sway
very
much
,
yet
God
may
haue
the
honor
,
and
his
Kingdome
aduanced
in
the
action
done
:
but
yet
by
the
way
,
me
thinks
this
obiection
comes
in
due
time
,
and
doth
wel
admonish
vs
,
how
to
rectiffe
our
hearts
and
ground
our
meditations
before
we
begin
:
we
doe
generally
applaud
,
and
highly
commend
the
goodnes
of
the
cause
,
and
that
it
is
such
a
profitable
plough
,
as
euery
honest
man
ought
to
set
his
hand
vnto
,
both
in
respect
of
God
and
the
publike
good
this
,
is
our
generall
voice
,
and
we
say
truth
,
for
so
it
is
.
But
wee
must
beware
that
vnder
this
pretence
that
bittet
root
of
gréedy
gaine
be
not
so
setled
in
our
harts
,
that
béeing
in
a
golden
dreame
,
if
it
fal
not
out
presently
to
our
expectation
,
we
flinke
away
with
discontent
,
and
draw
our
purses
from
the
charge
.
If
any
shew
this
affection
,
I
would
wish
his
basenes
of
minde
to
be
noted
.
What
must
be
our
direction
then
,
no
more
but
this
:
if
thou
dost
once
approue
the
worke
,
lay
thy
hand
to
it
chéerefully
,
and
withdraw
it
not
till
thy
taske
bee
done
,
at
all
assayes
and
new
supplies
of
money
be
not
lagge
,
nor
like
a
dull
horse
that
s
alwaies
in
the
lash
,
for
héere
lies
the
po●son
of
all
good
attempts
,
when
as
men
without
haling
and
pulling
,
will
not
bee
drawne
to
performance
,
for
by
this
,
others
are
discouraged
,
the
action
lies
vndone
,
and
the
first
expence
is
lost
:
But
are
wee
to
looke
for
no
gaine
in
the
lewe
of
all
aduentures
?
yes
vndoubtedly
,
there
is
assured
hope
of
gaine
,
as
I
will
shew
anon
in
due
place
,
but
look
it
be
not
chiefe
in
your
thoughts
,
God
that
hath
said
by
Solomon
:
Cast
thy
bread
vpon
the
waters
,
and
after
many
daies
thou
shalt
find
it
:
he
will
giue
the
blessing
:
And
as
for
supplanting
the
sauages
,
we
haue
no
such
intent
:
Our
intrusion
into
their
possessions
shall
tend
to
their
great
good
,
and
no
way
to
their
hurt
,
vnlesse
as
vnbridled
beastes
,
they
procure
it
to
themselues
:
Wee
purpose
to
proclaime
and
make
it
knowne
to
them
all
,
by
some
publike
interpretation
that
our
comming
thither
is
to
plant
our selues
in
their
countrie
:
yet
not
to
supplant
and
roote
them
out
,
but
to
bring
them
from
their
base
condition
to
a
farre
better
:
First
,
in
regard
of
God
the
Creator
,
and
of
Iesus
Christ
their
Redéemer
,
if
they
will
beléeue
in
him
.
And
secondly
,
in
respect
of
earthly
blessings
,
whereof
they
haue
now
no
comfortable
vse
,
but
in
beastly
brutish
maner
,
with
promise
to
defend
them
against
all
publike
and
priuate
enemies
.
Wée
can
remember
since
Don
Iohn
Daquila
with
his
forces
inuading
Ireland
,
a
noble
ciuill
kingdome
,
where
all
(
except
a
few
runagates
)
were
setled
in
the
truth
of
Religion
,
and
liued
by
wholsome
lawes
,
vnder
the
milde
gouernment
of
Christian
Kings
and
Princes
,
long
before
his
grandsiers
cradle
:
yet
hée
thought
it
no
robberie
to
proclaime
and
publish
to
the
world
,
that
his
comming
thither
,
was
to
none
other
end
,
but
to
free
the
Nation
from
their
bondage
,
and
tyrannous
subiection
,
and
to
bring
the
blind
soules
to
Catholike
Religion
:
a
plausible
pretence
,
the
least
end
of
his
thought
.
But
if
this
were
coyned
in
those
dayes
by
the
Minters
themselues
,
to
passe
for
currant
thorow
the
world
,
howsoeuer
base
it
was
indéede
,
wée
hope
they
will
be
as
fauourable
to
our
case
,
and
giue
as
frée
passage
and
allowance
to
our
inuasion
,
much
more
currant
,
and
so
farre
different
,
as
not
to
bring
a
people
(
according
to
our
prouerbe
)
out
of
the
frying
panne
into
the
fire
,
but
to
make
their
condition
truely
more
happy
,
by
a
mutuall
enterchange
and
commerce
in
this
sort
:
That
as
to
our
great
expence
and
charge
,
wée
make
aduentures
,
to
impart
our
diuine
riches
,
to
their
inestimable
gaine
,
and
to
couer
their
naked
miserie
with
ciuill
vse
of
foode
,
and
clothing
,
and
to
traine
them
by
gentle
mesnes
to
those
manuall
artes
and
skill
,
which
they
so
much
affect
,
and
doe
admire
to
sée
in
vs
:
so
in
lewe
of
this
,
wée
require
nothing
at
their
hands
,
but
a
quiet
residence
to
vs
and
ours
,
that
by
our
owne
labour
and
toyle
,
we
may
worke
this
good
vnto
them
and
recompence
our
owne
aduentures
,
costs
and
trauells
in
the
ende
:
wherein
,
they
shal
be
most
friendly
welcome
to
conioyne
their
labours
with
ours
,
and
shall
enioy
equall
priuiledges
with
vs
,
in
whatsoeuer
good
successe
,
time
or
meanes
may
bring
to
passe
.
To
which
purpose
,
wee
may
verily
beleeue
,
that
God
hath
reserued
in
this
last
age
of
the
world
,
an
infinite
number
of
those
lost
and
scattered
sheepe
,
to
be
won
and
recouered
by
our
means
,
of
whom
so
many
as
obstinatly
refuse
to
vnite
themselues
vnto
vs
,
or
shall
maligne
or
disturbe
our
plantation
,
our
chattel
,
or
whatsoeuer
belonging
to
vs
:
they
shall
be
held
and
reputed
recusant
,
withstanding
their
owne
good
:
and
shall
bee
dealt
with
as
enemies
of
the
Common-wealth
of
their
countrie
:
wherby
how
much
good
we
shall
performe
to
those
that
be
good
,
and
how
little
iniury
to
any
,
wil
easily
appeare
,
by
comparing
our
present
happinesse
with
our
former
ancient
miseries
,
wherein
wee
had
continued
brutish
,
poore
and
naked
Britanes
to
this
day
,
if
Iulius
Caesar
with
his
Romane
Legions
(
or
some
other
)
had
not
laid
the
ground
to
make
vs
tame
and
ciuill
.
But
for
my
second
point
propounded
,
the
honour
of
our
King
,
by
enlarging
his
Kingdomes
to
proue
how
this
may
tend
to
that
:
no
argument
of
mine
can
make
it
so
manifest
,
as
the
same
is
cleere
in
it selfe
:
Diuine
testimonies
shew
,
that
the
honour
of
a
King
consisteth
in
the
multitude
of
subiects
,
and
certainely
the
state
of
the
Iewes
was
farre
more
glorious
,
by
the
conquests
of
Dauid
,
and
vnder
the
ample
raigne
of
Solomon
,
then
euer
before
or
after
:
The
twelue
Tribes
were
then
all
subiect
:
the
bordering
Nations
tributarie
▪
no
doubt
a
happie
subiection
to
many
of
them
:
wherby
they
had
the
better
meanes
to
beleeue
and
know
God
the
Creator
of
heauen
and
earth
:
Honourable
I
graunt
is
iust
Conquest
by
sword
,
and
Hercules
is
fained
to
haue
had
all
his
felicity
,
in
subduing
and
rooting
out
the
Tyrants
of
the
world
,
but
vnfainedly
it
is
most
honorable
indeede
,
to
subdue
the
tyranny
of
the
roaring
Lion
,
that
deuoures
those
poore
soules
in
their
ignorance
,
and
leads
them
to
hel
for
want
of
light
,
when
our
Dominions
shall
be
enlarged
,
and
the
subiects
multiplied
of
a
people
so
bought
and
ransomed
▪
not
by
stormes
of
raging
cruelties
(
as
west
India
was
conuerted
)
with
rapiers
point
and
Musket
shot
,
murdering
so
many
millions
of
naked
Indians
,
as
their
Stories
doe
relate
,
but
by
faire
and
louing
meanes
,
suting
to
our
English
natures
,
like
that
soft
and
gentle
voice
,
wherein
the
Lord
appeared
to
Elias
:
How
honorable
wil
this
be
,
in
the
sight
of
men
and
of
ages
to
come
?
but
much
more
glorious
in
the
sight
of
God
,
when
our
King
shal
come
to
make
his
triumph
in
heauen
.
The
prophet
Daniel
doth
assure
,
that
for
this
conquest
of
turning
manie
vnto
righteousnesse
,
hee
shall
shine
as
the
starres
for
euer
and
euer
.
And
yet
this
is
not
all
that
may
be
saide
,
the
auncient
law
,
the
law
of
Moses
settes
it
downe
,
as
a
blessed
thing
,
when
the
Prince
and
people
of
God
,
shall
bee
able
to
lend
to
all
,
and
neede
to
borrow
of
none
,
and
it
added
very
much
to
the
fame
and
wisedome
of
King
Solomon
,
which
the
world
came
●arre
and
neere
to
wonder
at
,
in
that
his
Kingdomes
were
replenished
with
golde
and
siluer
in
aboundance
,
and
with
riches
brought
in
by
shippes
,
sent
yearely
forth
in
ample
trade
of
Merchandize
,
whereof
wee
reade
not
the
like
among
all
the
Kings
of
Israel
.
And
vpon
good
warrant
I
speake
it
here
in
priuate
,
what
by
these
new
discoueries
into
the
Westerne
partes
,
and
our
hopefull
setling
in
chiefest
places
of
the
East
,
with
our
former
knowne
trades
in
other
parts
of
the
world
,
I
doe
not
doubt
(
by
the
helpe
of
God
)
but
I
may
liue
to
see
the
dayes
(
if
Marchants
haue
their
due
encouragement
)
that
the
wisedome
,
Maiestie
,
and
Honour
of
our
King
,
shall
be
spread
and
enlarged
to
the
ends
of
the
world
,
our
Nauigations
mightily
encreased
,
and
his
Maiesties
customes
more
then
trebled
.
And
as
for
the
third
part
,
the
releeuing
our
men
already
planted
,
to
preserue
both
them
and
our
former
aduentures
,
I
shall
not
neede
to
say
much
,
the
necessitie
is
so
apparent
,
that
I
hope
no
Aduenturer
will
be
wanting
therein
.
Our
Sauiour
Christ
resembles
them
that
giue
ouer
in
their
best
duties
,
to
foolish
builders
,
that
hauing
laid
the
foundation
,
doe
grauell
themselues
in
the
midde
way
and
so
become
ridiculous
:
It
had
béene
extreame
madnes
in
the
Iewes
(
when
hauing
sent
to
spye
the
land
that
flowed
with
milke
and
honey
,
and
ten
for
two
returned
backe
with
tydings
of
impossibilitie
to
enter
and
preuaile
,
)
if
then
they
had
retyred
and
lost
the
land
of
promise
:
No
doubt
,
the
Deuill
that
enuied
then
that
enterprize
of
theirs
▪
doth
now
the
like
in
ours
,
and
we
must
make
accompt
,
and
look
to
bee
encountred
with
many
discoragements
,
partly
by
our
friends
and
neighbours
,
(
such
as
we
vse
to
say
)
will
neither
goe
to
Church
nor
tarrie
at
home
,
as
also
(
which
is
no
new
thing
)
euen
by
such
as
haue
béen
sent
to
spy
the
land
,
one
while
obiecting
the
charge
will
be
great
,
the
businesse
long
,
and
the
gaines
nothing
,
and
besides
▪
the
Anakimes
that
dwell
in
the
mountaines
,
will
come
and
pull
vs
out
by
the
eares
,
with
such
like
fooleries
I
know
not
what
.
But
wee
must
bée
prepared
with
Caleb
and
Iosua
(
so
highly
commended
)
to
oppose
an
extraordinarie
zeale
against
the
detra●●ings
of
such
,
to
rescue
our
enterprize
from
malicious
ignorance
,
and
to
still
their
murmurings
with
reproofe
,
for
though
in
ordinarie
and
common
occasions
,
it
be
our
duetie
to
be
caried
with
ordinarie
patience
,
méekenes
and
humilitie
,
yet
to
shew
an
excellent
spirit
,
when
the
cause
is
worth
it
,
and
in
such
a
case
as
this
,
requiring
passing
resolution
;
It
is
but
our
weakenesse
to
stumble
at
strawes
,
and
a
basenesse
to
gnaw
vpon
euery
bone
that
is
cast
in
our
way
,
which
wée
may
obserue
by
those
noble
dogges
of
Albania
presented
to
King
Alexander
,
whose
natures
contemned
to
encounter
or
prey
vpon
séely
beasts
of
no
valour
,
but
with
an
ouerflowing
courage
flying
vpon
the
Lion
and
the
Tyger
,
did
th●n
declare
their
vertue
.
And
now
it
followes
,
how
it
can
be
good
for
this
Commonwealth
:
which
is
likewise
most
apparant
many
waies
.
First
,
if
we
consider
what
strength
of
shipping
may
be
raysed
and
maintained
thence
,
in
furnishing
our
owne
wants
of
sundrie
kindes
,
and
the
wants
of
other
Nations
too
,
in
such
needfull
things
arising
thence
,
which
can
hardly
now
be
obtained
from
any
other
part
of
the
world
,
as
planck
and
tymber
for
shipping
,
with
Deale
and
Wainscot
,
pipestaues
and
clabbord
,
with
store
of
Sope
ashes
,
whereof
there
grow
the
best
woods
to
make
them
in
great
aboundance
,
al
which
we
may
there
haue
,
the
wood
for
the
cutting
,
and
the
Ashes
for
the
burning
,
which
though
they
bee
grosse
commodities
,
yet
no
Marchandize
is
better
requested
,
nor
will
sooner
yeelde
golde
or
siluer
in
any
our
bordering
Nations
.
England
and
Holland
alone
,
spend
in
these
about
three
hundreth
thousand
poundes
sterling
euery
yeare
:
we
may
transport
hether
or
vnto
Hamborough
,
Holland
,
or
other
places
,
fiftie
per
centum
better
cheape
,
then
from
Prusia
or
Polonia
,
from
whence
they
are
onely
now
to
be
had
,
where
also
the
woods
are
so
spent
and
wasted
,
that
from
the
place
where
the
wood
is
cut
and
the
ashes
burnt
,
they
are
brought
by
land
at
least
two
hundred
miles
to
ship
.
And
from
thence
we
may
haue
Iron
and
Copper
also
in
great
quantitie
,
about
which
the
expence
and
waste
of
woode
,
as
also
for
building
of
Shippes
,
will
be
no
hurt
,
but
great
seruice
to
that
countrey
:
the
great
superfluity
whereof
,
the
continuall
cutting
downe
,
in
manie
hundred
yeares
,
will
not
be
able
to
ouercome
,
whereby
will
likewise
grow
a
greater
benefite
to
this
land
,
in
preseruing
our
woodes
and
tymber
at
home
,
so
infinitely
and
without
measure
,
vpon
these
occasions
cutte
downe
,
and
falne
to
such
a
sickenesse
and
wasting
consumption
,
as
all
the
physick
in
England
cannot
cure
.
Wee
doubt
not
but
to
make
there
in
few
yeares
store
of
good
wines
,
as
any
from
the
Canaries
,
by
replanting
and
making
tame
the
Uines
that
naturally
grow
there
in
great
abundance
,
onely
send
men
of
skill
to
doe
it
,
and
Coopers
to
make
caske
,
and
hoopes
for
that
and
all
other
vses
,
for
which
there
is
wood
enough
at
hand
.
There
are
Silke-wormes
,
and
plenty
of
Mulberie-trees
,
whereby
Ladies
,
Gentlewomen
and
litle
children
,
(
beeing
set
in
the
way
to
doe
it
)
may
bee
all
imploied
with
pleasure
,
in
making
Silke
,
comparable
to
that
of
Persia
,
Turkey
,
or
any
other
.
We
may
bring
from
thence
Sturgion
,
Cauiare
,
and
new
land-fish
of
the
best
.
There
grows
hempe
for
Cordage
,
an
excellent
commoditie
,
and
flaxe
for
linnen
cloth
;
which
beeing
sowen
and
well
manured
,
in
such
a
clymate
and
fertile
soyle
,
will
make
great
benefite
,
and
will
put
downe
that
of
other
countries
.
And
for
the
making
of
Pitch
,
Tarre
,
Turpentine
,
Sope-ashes
,
Deale
,
Wainscott
,
and
such
like
,
wee
haue
alreadie
prouided
and
sent
thither
skillfull
workemen
from
Forraine
parts
,
which
may
teach
and
set
ours
in
the
way
,
whereby
we
may
set
many
thousands
a
worke
,
in
these
and
such
like
seruices
.
For
as
I
tolde
you
before
,
there
must
be
Art
and
industry
with
other
helps
and
meanes
extended
,
with
a
little
pacience
to
bring
these
things
to
passe
,
wee
must
not
looke
to
reape
with
ioy
,
except
we
sow
in
teares
:
The
aboundance
of
King
Salomons
golde
and
siluer
,
did
not
raine
from
heauen
vpon
the
heads
of
his
subiects
:
but
heauenly
prouidence
blessed
his
Nauigations
and
publike
affayres
,
the
chiefe
meanes
of
their
wealth
.
Experience
hath
lately
taught
vs
by
some
of
our
neighbour
Prouinces
,
how
excéedingly
it
mounts
the
State
of
a
common-wealth
,
to
put
forth
Nauigation
(
if
it
were
possible
)
into
all
parts
and
corners
of
the
world
,
to
furnish
our
owne
wants
,
and
also
to
supply
from
one
Kingdome
to
another
,
such
seuerall
néedefull
things
,
as
for
want
of
shipping
and
other
meanes
they
cannot
furnish
of
themselues
,
for
this
will
raise
experience
,
and
men
of
skill
,
as
also
strength
at
Sea
and
land
,
with
honour
,
wealth
,
and
riches
,
returning
still
to
the
heads
and
Fountaines
,
from
whence
their
first
occasions
grew
.
Wee
may
but
looke
a
little
backe
,
and
wee
shall
see
what
a
nouice
our
nation
was
within
these
sixscore
yeeres
,
in
case
of
Forraine
trade
,
not
knowing
whence
to
fetch
,
nor
which
way
to
transport
,
but
onely
to
some
marte
or
staple
towne
,
within
two
daies
sailing
▪
and
that
was
counted
so
great
a
matter
then
,
that
therefore
they
were
called
Marchant
aduenturers
,
and
the
great
Hulkes
of
Italy
,
which
in
those
daies
brought
spices
Corants
and
such
like
,
and
landes
at
Southampton
,
(
the
Storehouse
then
for
Marchandize
)
are
Chronicled
for
wonders
in
our
English
Stories
,
for
indeede
we
knew
no
better
then
,
but
were
content
(
as
babes
)
with
Easterlings
on
the
one
hand
&
Lumbards
on
the
other
,
which
were
continuall
Liegers
in
London
,
and
fed
vs
as
they
listed
.
And
take
this
euer
as
a
rule
,
that
Domesticke
Marchandizing
brings
forth
but
poore
effects
in
a
Commonwealth
,
whereof
I
needed
not
haue
shewed
example
further
then
our
owne
doores
.
What
was
the
case
of
England
before
the
golden
daies
of
Quéene
Elizabeth
at
whose
comming
to
the
crowne
,
the
state
of
Marchants
was
so
poore
and
meane
,
that
renting
out
her
customes
in
wardes
,
but
at
a
very
lowe
rate
,
yet
it
brought
the
farmer
vpon
his
knées
.
A
man
that
markes
the
difference
,
and
shall
compare
those
times
and
these
together
,
shall
thinke
it
were
impossible
,
(
vnlesse
his
knowledge
taught
him
otherwise
)
that
the
dayes
and
raigne
of
one
Elizabeth
,
whose
hand
was
euer
lending
,
to
distressed
neighbour
Princes
,
and
her
sword
vnsheathed
continually
,
repulsing
forraine
enemies
,
should
yet
releeue
and
raise
the
state
of
her
customes
,
the
strength
of
her
Nauie
▪
and
the
condition
of
her
people
,
euery
way
seuen
fold
to
that
they
were
before
,
onely
by
encouraging
the
royall
trade
of
Marchandize
,
as
wee
see
it
this
day
apparant
:
Let
God
haue
the
honour
,
and
blessed
be
her
memory
,
and
the
memoriall
of
those
managers
of
State
in
her
daies
,
for
their
worthy
counsells
,
many
of
which
though
they
now
sléepe
,
and
rest
with
their
Soueraigne
in
peace
,
yet
some
doe
still
remaine
,
and
do
succeede
in
place
,
where
long
may
they
stand
and
their
séede
after
them
,
like
the
Pillars
and
Worthies
of
King
Dauid
,
to
shielde
the
head
and
honour
of
our
Solomon
,
and
still
to
vphold
and
enlarge
our
happinesse
for
euer
:
and
this
I
am
driuen
to
speake
and
mention
by
the
way
,
where
I
meant
it
not
,
in
regard
of
some
which
vpon
a
disaster
beginne
to
ware
weary
of
all
,
discouraging
themselues
and
others
,
from
this
and
all
other
forreine
aduentures
:
to
let
them
know
,
that
each
thing
hath
encrease
,
from
whence
it
had
beginning
:
and
to
put
our selues
in
mind
,
that
wee
faile
not
in
furthering
those
causes
that
bring
forth
such
effects
.
Another
instance
might
be
shewed
in
one
particular
,
which
taxeth
very
much
our
English
Nation
,
and
all
the
Subiects
of
our
soueraigne
King
,
that
enioying
such
plentie
of
wood-lands
,
and
fruitfull
soiles
,
within
England
,
Scotland
,
Ireland
and
Wales
:
yet
our
want
of
industry
to
bee
such
,
that
Netherlanders
which
haue
not
a
stick
of
wood
growing
nor
any
land
for
sowing
,
should
surpasse
and
goe
beyond
vs
in
continuall
plenty
of
corne
and
shipping
,
me
thinks
the
reformation
hereof
should
find
more
fauour
at
our
hands
,
that
in
such
points
of
ciuil
pollicie
,
no
people
of
lesser
meanes
should
cast
vs
so
behinde
,
and
each
well
minded
man
should
lend
his
helpe
to
heale
and
cure
such
staines
and
scarres
in
the
face
of
our
state
,
as
being
viewed
and
wayed
well
,
may
very
well
make
vs
blush
.
And
now
to
our
present
businesse
in
hand
,
which
so
many
stumble
at
,
in
regard
of
the
continuall
charge
,
I
would
haue
them
know
,
that
it
cannot
be
great
nor
long
,
as
the
businesse
may
be
handled
.
Two
things
are
especially
required
herein
,
people
to
make
the
plantation
,
and
money
to
furnish
our
present
prouisions
,
and
shippings
now
in
hand
:
For
the
first
we
neede
not
doubt
,
our
land
abounding
with
swarmes
of
idle
persons
,
which
hauing
no
meanes
of
labour
to
reléeue
their
misery
,
doe
likewise
swarme
in
lewd
and
naughtie
practises
,
so
that
if
we
seeke
not
some
waies
for
their
forreine
employment
,
wee
must
prouide
shortly
more
prisons
and
corrections
for
their
bad
conditions
,
for
it
fares
with
populous
common
weales
,
as
with
plants
and
trees
that
bee
too
frolicke
,
which
not
able
to
sustaine
and
feede
their
multitude
of
branches
,
do
admit
an
engrafting
of
their
buds
and
Siences
into
some
other
soile
,
acounting
it
a
benefite
for
preseruation
of
their
kind
,
and
a
disburdening
their
stocke
of
those
superfluous
twigs
that
sucke
away
their
nourishment
.
And
we
shal
find
that
hence
it
was
,
the
Gothes
and
Uandalles
with
other
barbarous
nations
,
séeing
an
ouerflowing
of
their
multitudes
at
home
,
did
therefore
send
their
Armies
out
as
raging
floods
at
sundrie
times
,
to
couer
the
faces
of
Spain
,
Italy
and
other
Prouinces
,
to
f●ée
their
owne
from
pestering
:
so
that
you
see
it
no
new
thing
,
but
most
profitable
for
our
State
,
to
rid
our
multitudes
of
such
as
lie
at
home
,
pestering
the
land
with
pestilence
and
penury
,
and
infecting
one
another
with
vice
and
villanie
,
worse
then
the
plague
it selfe
:
whose
very
miseries
driues
many
of
them
,
by
meanes
to
be
cutte
off
,
as
bad
and
wicked
members
,
or
else
both
them
and
theirs
to
be
reléeued
,
at
the
common
charge
of
others
.
Yet
I
doe
not
meane
,
that
none
but
such
vnsound
members
,
and
such
poore
as
want
their
bread
,
are
fittest
for
this
imployment
:
for
wee
intend
to
haue
of
euery
trade
and
profession
,
both
honest
,
wise
and
painefull
men
,
whereof
our
land
and
Citie
is
able
to
spare
,
and
furnish
many
(
as
we
had
experience
in
our
last
sending
thither
)
which
will
be
glad
to
goe
,
and
plant
themselues
so
happily
,
and
their
children
after
them
,
to
holde
and
keepe
conformitie
,
with
the
lawes
,
language
and
religion
of
England
for
euer
,
Touching
which
,
I
doe
earnestly
admonish
you
to
beware
and
shunne
three
kindes
of
people
:
the
first
,
a
most
vile
minded
sort
,
and
for
the
most
part
badde
members
of
this
Citie
,
by
some
meanes
shaken
out
of
their
honest
courses
,
and
now
shifting
by
their
wittes
,
will
bee
alwaies
deuising
some
vnhappines
to
wrong
the
plantation
:
such
as
daily
beate
their
braines
,
and
séeke
by
lying
suggestions
;
vnder
colour
of
good
pretence
to
the
Common-wealth
to
infringe
our
auncient
liberties
,
and
would
(
if
they
were
not
mette
withall
and
curbed
by
authoritie
)
make
a
monopoly
to
themselues
,
of
each
thing
after
other
,
belonging
to
the
freedome
of
euery
mans
profession
,
the
very
wrack
of
Merchandizing
.
The
second
sort
are
papists
,
professed
or
Recusant
of
which
I
would
not
one
,
seasoned
with
the
least
taint
of
that
leauen
,
to
be
setled
in
our
plantation
,
nor
in
any
part
of
that
country
,
but
if
once
perceiued
,
such
a
one
,
wéede
him
out
,
and
ship
him
home
for
England
,
for
they
will
euer
bee
plotting
and
conspiring
,
to
root
you
out
if
they
can
,
howsoeuer
they
sweare
,
flatter
,
and
equiuocate
,
beleeue
them
not
:
keepe
onely
these
two
examples
in
minde
.
Watson
the
Seminarie
priest
in
his
printed
Quodlibets
:
he
,
of
all
other
men
protesteth
the
greatest
truth
and
fidelity
to
his
Prince
and
countrey
;
obiecting
all
the
bloudy
plottes
and
treasons
,
to
haue
come
from
the
combination
of
Iesuits
,
and
from
Parsons
that
Arch-Atheist
in
chiefe
,
but
as
for
himselfe
,
hee
wished
no
longer
to
liue
and
breath
,
then
the
thoughts
of
his
hart
should
be
true
and
vpright
to
his
prince
and
Countrey
:
Notwithstanding
,
this
Watson
was
the
very
first
wretch
of
all
other
,
that
had
his
hand
in
treason
against
our
King
,
and
reapt
his
reward
according
to
his
wish
.
The
other
example
is
a
Popish
Pamphlet
,
called
the
Lay
Catholikes
Petition
,
offered
to
his
Maiestie
for
tolleration
of
Popery
,
protesting
likewise
their
fidelitie
and
vnfained
loue
to
his
Maiestie
,
offering
to
be
bound
life
for
life
with
good
suerties
for
their
loyall
behauiour
:
happy
▪
men
had
we
béene
to
haue
taken
their
bonds
,
(
no
doubt
)
for
euen
at
that
instant
,
when
this
petition
was
exhibiting
,
the
chiefe
heads
of
those
lay
Catholikes
,
were
then
labouring
with
all
their
might
,
to
vndermine
the
Parliament
house
,
to
shake
the
Pillers
,
and
the
whole
frame
of
the
Kingdome
to
shiuers·
And
which
is
more
,
there
is
newly
dispersed
an
idle
discourse
against
an
honorable
personage
of
this
Land
,
by
a
Papist
,
that
termes
himselfe
a
Catholike
Diuine
,
defending
Garnet
the
popish
Priest
;
saying
,
there
was
nothing
against
him
at
his
arraignement
,
but
onely
his
acquaintance
with
the
Powder-plotte
:
which
(
saith
hee
)
beeing
reuealed
vnto
him
in
auricular
confession
,
hee
might
not
therefore
by
the
lawe
and
right
of
Catholike
religion
,
disclose
nor
make
it
knowne
.
How
like
you
these
Catholikes
and
this
diuinitie
?
if
they
grow
so
bold
and
desperate
in
a
mighty
setled
State
,
howe
much
more
dangerous
in
the
birth
and
infancie
of
yours
?
Therefore
if
you
will
liue
and
prosper
,
harbor
not
this
viperous
broode
in
your
bosome
,
which
will
eat
out
and
consume
the
wombe
of
their
mother
.
The
third
sort
to
auoide
,
are
euill
affected
Magistrates
,
a
plague
that
God
himselfe
complaines
of
by
the
Prophet
Isaiah
:
O
my
people
,
they
that
leade
thee
,
cause
thee
to
erre
.
Touching
which
,
I
am
no
way
able
to
speake
enough
,
for
herein
lies
the
very
life
of
all
:
let
no
partialitie
preferre
them
,
vnlesse
they
be
worthy
men
;
if
they
be
papists
or
popishly
minded
;
if
prophane
Atheists
,
contemning
God
and
his
word
,
turning
religion
to
policy
,
vnchaste
,
idle
,
ambitious
,
proud
and
tyrannous
,
forgetting
their
allegiance
to
their
King
,
and
duety
to
their
country
,
neglecting
their
commission
of
imployment
,
aduancing
vil●e
and
vitious
persons
like
themselues
,
and
basely
vsing
those
that
bee
vertuous
,
godly
,
and
well
affected
:
then
looke
for
no
blessing
nor
assistance
of
God
,
but
misery
,
crosses
,
and
confusions
in
all
wée
take
in
hand
:
but
in
men
of
knowledge
,
and
religious
education
,
there
is
euer
found
true
humilitie
,
temperance
and
iustice
,
ioyned
with
confidence
,
valour
and
noble
courage
,
such
as
was
in
Moses
the
man
of
God
,
whose
iustice
excéeded
,
and
courage
was
incomparable
,
and
yet
the
méekest
man
that
went
vpon
the
earth
:
tenne
of
such
will
chase
an
hundred
:
no
aduersitie
can
make
them
despayre
,
their
prouident
care
wil
euer
be
to
repulse
iniuries
,
and
represse
the
insolent
,
to
encourage
the
paineful
and
best
minded
,
to
employ
the
idle
to
some
honest
labours
,
and
to
releeue
with
mercy
and
commiseration
,
the
most
feeble
,
weakest
and
meanest
member
.
And
as
for
the
generall
sort
that
shall
goe
to
bee
planters
,
bee
they
neuer
so
poore
,
so
they
bée
honest
,
and
painefull
,
the
place
will
make
them
rich
:
all
kinde
of
Artificers
wee
must-first
imploy
,
are
Carpenters
,
Ship-wrights
,
Masons
,
Sawyers
,
Brickemakers
,
Bricklayers
,
Plowmen
,
Sowers
,
Planters
Fishermen
,
Coopers
,
Smiths
,
Mettel-men
Taylers
,
Turners
,
and
such
like
,
to
make
and
fitte
all
necessaries
,
for
comfort
and
vse
of
the
Colony
,
and
for
such
as
are
of
no
trades
(
if
they
bee
industrious
)
they
shall
haue
there
imployment
enough
,
for
there
is
a
world
of
means
to
set
many
thousands
a
work●
,
partly
in
such
things
as
I
mentioned
before
,
and
many
other
profitable
workes
,
for
no
man
must
liue
idle
there
.
And
by
this
imploiment
,
we
may
happily
stop
the
course
of
those
Irregular
youths
of
no
religion
,
that
daily
run
from
vs
to
Rome
and
Rhemes
for
exhibition
,
which
after
a
little
hammering
and
trayning
there
by
Parsons
and
his
Impes
,
they
become
pliable
for
the
impression
of
any
villany
whatsoeuer
,
as
appeares
by
their
positions
and
practises
at
home
and
abroad
.
And
hereby
our
Marriners
shall
not
lie
idle
,
nor
our
Owners
sell
their
ships
for
want
of
freight
:
you
know
how
many
good
ships
are
daily
solde
,
and
made
away
to
forreine
nations
:
how
many
men
for
want
of
imploiment
▪
betake
themselues
to
Tunis
,
Spaine
and
Florence
,
and
to
serue
in
courses
not
warrantable
,
which
would
better
beseeme
,
our
owne
walles
and
borders
to
bee
spread
with
such
branches
,
that
their
natiue
countrey
,
and
not
forreine
Princes
,
might
reape
their
fruit
,
as
beeing
both
exquisite
Nauigators
,
and
resolute
men
for
seruice
,
as
any
the
world
affoords
.
Wee
intend
to
Plant
there
(
God
willing
)
great
plentie
of
Sugar
Canes
,
for
which
the
soyle
and
clymate
is
very
apt
and
fit
;
also
Linseed
,
and
Rapeséeds
to
make
Oiles
,
which
because
the
soyle●s
strong
&
cheape
,
may
there
be
sowed
and
the
oyle
made
to
great
benefite
:
wee
must
plant
also
Orenges
,
Limons
,
Almonds
,
Anniséeds
,
Rice
,
Cummin
,
Cotten
wool
,
Carowey
séeds
,
Ginger
,
Madder
,
Oliues
,
Oris
,
Sumacke
and
many
such
like
,
which
I
cannot
now
name
,
al
very
good
Marchandize
,
and
will
there
grow
and
increase
,
as
well
as
in
Italy
or
any
other
part
of
the
streights
,
whence
wee
fetch
them
now
.
And
in
searching
the
land
,
there
is
vndoubted
hope
of
finding
Cochinell
,
the
plant
of
rich
Indico
,
Graineberries
,
Beauer
Hydes
,
Pearles
,
rich
Treasure
,
and
the
South
sea
,
leading
to
China
,
with
many
other
benefites
which
our
day-light
will
discouer
.
But
of
all
other
things
,
that
God
hath
denied
that
countrie
,
there
is
want
of
Sheepe
to
make
woollen
cloth
,
and
this
want
of
cloth
,
must
alwaies
bee
supplied
from
England
,
whereby
when
the
Colony
is
thorowly
increased
,
and
the
Indians
brought
to
our
Ciuilitie
,
(
as
they
wil
in
short
time
)
It
will
cause
a
mighty
vent
of
English
clothes
,
a
great
benefit
to
our
Nation
,
and
raising
againe
of
that
auncient
trade
of
clothing
,
so
much
decayed
in
England
:
whose
lifting
vp
againe
(
me
thinkes
I
see
apparantly
approching
,
by
the
good
dispositions
of
our
best
sort
of
Citizens
,
who
willingly
engage
themselues
to
vndertake
all
new
discoueries
,
as
into
this
of
the
West
,
and
by
the
North
West
to
finde
out
China
.
And
vnto
the
East
beyond
the
Cape
,
into
the
Red
Sea
,
the
gulfe
of
Persia
,
the
streights
of
Sunda
,
and
among
al
the
Kings
of
India
,
for
the
good
and
honour
of
our
Nation
:
Which
calles
to
minde
,
a
blinde
Prophesie
in
one
of
the
Sibells
,
that
before
the
ende
of
the
world
there
shall
be
a
discouerie
of
all
Nations
:
which
shall
come
to
bee
knowne
and
acquainted
together
,
as
one
neighbour
with
another
,
which
since
the
confusion
of
tongues
haue
lyeu
obscure
and
hid
.
But
howeuer
that
bee
,
yet
these
good
mindes
and
resolutions
,
doe
serue
for
imitation
to
others
,
and
do
deserue
assuredly
the
best
encouragement
,
whereby
wee
shall
not
still
betake
our selues
to
small
and
little
Shipping
(
as
wee
dayly
doe
beginne
)
but
shall
reare
againe
such
Marchants
Shippes
both
tall
and
stout
,
as
no
Forreine
Sayle
that
swimmes
shall
make
them
vaile
or
stoope
:
wherby
to
make
this
little
Northerne
corner
of
the
world
,
to
be
in
short
time
the
richest
Store-house
and
Staple
for
Marchandize
in
all
Europe
.
The
second
thing
to
make
this
plantation
is
money
,
to
be
raised
among
the
aduenturers
▪
wherein
the
sooner
and
more
déeply
men
engage
themselues
,
their
charge
wil
be
the
shorter
,
&
their
gaine
the
greater
,
as
in
this
last
point
which
I
haue
to
speake
for
the
good
of
each
particular
Aduenturer
,
I
will
make
it
plaine
.
First
you
shall
vnderstand
,
that
his
Maiestie
hath
graunted
vs
an
enlargement
of
our
Charter
,
with
many
ample
priuiledges
,
wherein
we
haue
Knights
and
Gentlemen
of
good
place
:
Named
for
the
Kings
counsell
of
Virginia
to
gouerne
vs
:
As
also
euery
Planter
and
Aduenturer
shall
bee
inserted
in
the
Patent
by
name
:
This
ground
being
laide
,
wee
purpose
presently
to
make
supply
of
Men
Women
and
children
(
so
many
as
we
can
)
to
make
the
Plantation
.
Wee
call
those
Planters
that
goe
in
their
persons
to
dwell
there
:
And
those
Aduenturers
that
aduenture
their
money
and
go
not
in
person
,
and
both
do
make
the
members
of
one
Colonie
.
We
do
account
twelue
pound
ten
shillings
to
be
a
single
share
aduentured
.
Euery
ordinary
man
or
woman
,
if
they
will
goe
and
dwell
there
,
and
euery
Childe
aboue
tenne
yeares
,
that
shall
be
caried
thither
to
remaine
,
shal
be
alowed
for
each
of
their
persons
a
single
share
,
as
if
they
had
aduentured
twelue
pound
ten
shillings
in
money
.
Euery
extraordinarie
man
,
as
Diuines
,
Gouernors
,
Ministers
of
state
and
Iustice
,
Knights
,
Gentlemen
,
Physitions
,
and
such
as
be
men
of
worth
for
speciall
seruices
,
are
all
to
goe
as
planters
,
and
to
execute
their
seueral
functions
in
the
Colonie
,
and
are
to
be
maintained
at
the
common
charge
,
and
are
to
receiue
their
Diuident
(
as
others
doe
)
at
seuen
yeares
end
,
and
they
are
to
be
agréed
with
all
before
they
goe
,
and
to
be
rated
by
the
Councell
,
according
to
the
value
of
their
persons
:
which
shal
be
set
downe
and
Registred
in
a
booke
,
that
it
may
alwaies
appeare
what
people
haue
gone
to
the
Plantation
,
at
what
time
they
went
,
and
how
their
persons
were
valued
:
And
likewise
,
if
any
that
goe
to
bee
planters
will
lay
downe
money
to
the
Treasurer
,
it
shall
bee
also
registred
and
their
shares
inlarged
accordingly
▪
be
it
for
more
or
less
.
Al
charges
of
setling
and
maintaining
the
plantation
,
and
of
making
supplies
▪
shall
be
borne
in
a
ioint
stock
of
the
aduenturers
for
seuen
yeares
after
the
date
of
our
new
enlargement
:
during
which
time
there
shal
be
no
aduenture
,
nor
goods
returned
in
priuate
from
thence
,
neytheir
by
Master
,
Marriner
,
Planter
nor
passenger
,
they
shal
be
restrained
by
bond
and
search
,
that
as
we
supplie
from
hence
to
the
Planters
at
our
owne
charge
all
necessaries
for
food
and
apparel
,
for
fortifying
and
building
of
houses
in
a
ioynt
stock
,
so
they
are
also
to
returne
from
thence
the
encrease
and
fruits
of
their
labours
,
for
the
vse
and
aduancement
of
the
same
ioynt
stocke
,
till
the
end
of
seuen
yeares
:
at
which
time
wee
purpose
(
God
willing
)
to
make
a
diuision
by
Commissioners
appointed
,
of
al
the
lands
graunted
vnto
vs
by
his
Maiestie
,
to
euery
of
the
Colonie
,
according
to
each
mans
seuerall
aduenture
,
agréeing
with
our
Register
booke
,
which
wee
doubt
not
will
bee
for
euery
share
of
twelue
pound
tenne
shillings
,
fiue
hundred
acres
at
least
.
Now
if
any
thinke
that
we
shal
be
tyed
to
a
continual
charge
,
of
making
new
supplies
for
seuen
yeares
,
let
them
conceiue
thus
much
,
that
if
wee
doe
it
thorowly
at
the
first
,
by
engaging
our selues
at
once
,
in
furnishing
many
men
and
other
meanes
:
assuredly
after
the
second
yeare
,
the
returnes
from
thence
wil
be
able
with
an
ouer-plus
,
to
make
supplies
at
large
,
so
that
our
purses
shal
be
freed
,
and
the
ouer-plus
of
stock
will
also
grow
to
greatnes
,
which
stock
is
also
(
as
the
land
)
to
be
diuided
equally
at
seuen
yeares
end
or
sooner
,
or
so
often
as
the
company
shall
thinke
fit
for
the
greatnes
of
it
,
to
make
a
Diuident
.
And
as
by
this
wée
shall
be
soone
freed
from
charge
and
expence
,
so
there
grows
a
greater
benefit
to
the
planters
(
by
bestowing
their
labours
chéerefully
)
to
make
returne
of
Stocke
,
for
hereby
the
sooner
they
f●eeing
vs
from
disbursments
,
the
more
our
shares
and
portions
will
be
lessened
in
the
Diuident
of
Stocke
and
land
at
seuen
yéeres
end
▪
whereby
the
lesse
comming
to
vs
,
the
more
will
be
to
them
,
so
that
héere
is
no
discouragement
any
way
,
if
men
will
be
capable
to
doe
themselues
good
.
But
if
wee
will
be
so
wise
to
linger
,
and
lie
in
the
winde
,
to
heare
what
newes
,
to
bring
in
our
Stocke
next
yeare
,
and
when
we
are
behinde
for
foure
or
fiue
Aduentures
,
we
come
dropping
in
with
one
or
two
and
still
runne
in
arrerages
for
twice
so
much
:
(
For
I
know
many
that
would
bring
in
stocke
amongst
vs
,
but
they
lie
out
to
sée
what
successe
first
:
and
vpon
such
like
termes
.
)
Is
this
Gentleman-like
or
Marchant-like
,
in
truth
it
is
paultry
,
and
such
as
would
bring
all
to
naught
,
if
we
should
bee
so
minded
too
,
and
I
tell
you
true
,
our
single
shares
wil
make
but
a
hungry
Plantation
,
if
we
doe
not
at
the
least
double
them
now
:
and
therefore
I
vrge
it
the
more
,
for
that
the
very
life
of
all
is
now
in
the
beginning
by
making
our
supplies
thoroughly
,
and
thence
will
our
gaines
arise
both
sooner
and
certaine
.
yet
I
graunt
that
others
may
come
in
hereafter
at
any
time
,
eyther
to
aduenture
h●s
person
or
money
,
or
both
,
but
if
there
be
spent
one
yeere
of
the
seuen
before
he
comes
in
,
or
hée
that
comes
in
with
the
first
shall
notwithstanding
bée
a
yeare
behinde
in
supplies
,
they
shall
be
both
alike
shortened
in
a
seuenth
part
of
the
Diuident
both
of
stocke
and
lands
,
and
if
two
yeeres
behinde
,
then
shortned
two
seuenths
,
and
if
but
sixe
moneths
,
yet
a
fourtéenth
part
,
for
euery
man
is
Registered
according
to
the
time
,
his
money
or
person
beganne
to
aduenture
,
or
made
supply
,
so
that
they
which
come
late
▪
get
not
the
〈◊〉
of
those
that
bore
the
first
brunt
of
the
busines
,
and
this
will
neither
aduantage
him
that
withholds
nor
hinder
●im
that
is
forward
▪
for
whatsoeuer
falles
from
him
that
is
slack
,
will
be
found
of
him
that
supplies
in
due
time
.
But
euery
man
that
comes
in
now
in
the
first
of
these
seuen
yéers
and
shal
afterwards
vpon
al
occasions
perform
i●
due
time
,
euery
twelue
pound
ten
shillings
so
brought
in
shall
bee
accounted
an
entice
single
share
,
and
shall
receiue
accordingly
without
abridgement
,
as
it
had
béene
brought
in
,
when
the
enterprize
first
began
,
and
not
otherwise
.
And
as
for
the
diuisions
of
landes
at
seuen
yeeres
ende
which
(
some
may
obiect
)
will
be
little
worth
▪
and
vnequally
d●uided
:
let
them
vnderstand
,
that
no
man
shall
haue
his
lot
entirely
in
one
place
,
to
be
al
of
the
best
,
or
al
of
the
worst
,
but
each
man
shall
haue
proportionably
to
his
aduentures
,
in
thrée
or
foure
distinct
differences
,
that
may
bee
made
in
the
goodnes
or
badnes
of
the
groundes
by
Commissioners
equally
chosen
by
the
Aduenturers
héere
,
and
the
Planters
there
;
and
as
for
the
value
and
little
worth
now
,
of
those
grounds
in
Virginia
,
we
know
that
in
England
within
these
thirty
or
fortie
yeeres
,
the
yéerely
rent
of
those
grounds
(
in
many
places
)
were
not
worth
fiue
shillings
,
that
now
do
goe
for
fourtie
and
more
.
And
howsoeuer
those
grounds
in
Virginia
are
now
but
little
worth
indéede
,
yet
time
and
meanes
will
make
them
better
,
considering
how
they
passe
our
grounds
in
England
,
both
in
regard
of
the
soile
and
clymate
,
fitte
for
many
precious
vses
:
And
also
in
how
many
seuerall
places
we
purpose
to
plant
our
Colony
,
and
not
to
bestow
our
costs
vppon
Iames-towne
onely
,
and
vpon
the
grounds
lying
thereabout
,
and
to
let
al
▪
the
rest
lie
barren
:
for
seeing
his
Maiestie
hath
graunted
to
our
Colony
as
much
circuite
of
ground
as
all
England
almost
we
purpose
(
God
willing
)
if
wee
may
be
supplied
with
sufficient
meanes
)
to
settle
out
of
hand
,
sixe
or
seuen
plantations
more
,
al
vpon
,
or
neare
our
main-riuer
,
as
capitall
townes
,
twenty
miles
each
from
other
,
and
euery
plantation
shall
manure
and
husband
the
lands
and
grounds
lying
néere
vnto
it
,
and
alotted
for
the
circuite
thereof
,
and
shall
all
endeuour
for
a
ioynt
stocke
,
and
shall
be
still
supplied
from
hence
with
more
money
and
prouisions
,
and
against
any
publike
iniury
shall
be
ready
to
vnite
,
and
ioyne
themselues
together
.
and
by
this
mea●es
wee
shall
come
to
haue
our
Diuident
in
landes
of
worth
and
well
manured
,
which
will
be
eyther
bought
or
rented
of
vs
at
a
good
value
by
the
planters
,
or
by
such
as
intend
hereafter
to
inhabite
there
,
as
also
by
these
seueral
plantations
(
which
happly
one
place
better
fitting
then
another
)
wee
shall
bring
forth
more
seuerall
sorts
of
Marchandize
,
and
be
also
better
fortified
:
and
besides
the
Planters
will
be
in
such
hope
to
haue
their
owne
shares
and
habitations
in
those
lands
,
which
they
haue
so
husbanded
,
that
it
will
cause
contending
and
emulation
among
them
,
which
shall
bring
foorth
the
most
profitable
and
beneficiall
fruits
for
the
ioynt
stocke
.
Whereby
vndoubtedly
,
we
shall
be
soone
fréed
from
further
expence
,
our
gaines
will
grow
▪
and
our
stocke
encrease
,
we
shall
fell
our
tymber
,
saw
our
planck
,
and
quickly
make
good
shipping
there
,
and
shall
returne
from
thence
with
good
imployment
,
an
hundred
saile
of
good
Shippes
yearely
,
all
which
good
and
much
more
,
wee
shall
withstand
and
bring
our selues
into
a
laborinth
,
if
wee
pinch
and
spare
our
purses
now
:
therefore
not
to
holde
you
longer
with
many
wordes
,
(
being
neere
Exchange
time
as
I
take
it
)
remember
what
I
haue
said
in
prouing
my
proposition
,
and
take
my
conclusion
in
a
word
or
two
.
Séeing
our
prouocations
are
so
many
,
our
cause
and
title
good
,
auaunt
all
idle
oracles
that
seeke
to
bar
vs
:
The
wisedome
of
the
wisest
saith
in
these
cases
,
Whatsoeuer
thy
hand
shall
find
to
doe
,
do
it
with
all
thy
might
.
Our
forefathers
not
looking
out
in
time
,
lost
the
prime
and
fairest
proffer
of
the
greatest
wealth
in
the
world
,
and
we
taxe
their
omission
for
it
,
yet
now
it
falles
out
,
that
wee
their
children
are
tryed
in
the
like
,
there
being
yet
an
excellent
portion
left
,
and
by
Diuine
prouidence
offered
to
our
choice
,
which
(
seeing
we
haue
armes
to
embrace
,
)
let
it
not
be
accounted
hereafter
,
As
a
prize
in
the
hands
of
fooles
,
that
had
no
hearts
to
vse
it
.
The
honour
of
our
nation
is
now
very
great
by
his
Maiesties
meanes
and
wee
his
subiects
cannot
enlarge
and
vphold
it
by
gazing
o●
,
and
talking
what
hath
béene
done
,
but
by
doing
that
good
,
which
may
bee
commended
hereafter
,
if
we
sitte
still
and
let
slip
occasions
,
we
shall
gather
rust
,
and
doe
vnfeather
our
owne
wings
,
committing
the
folly
of
the
wise
Romanes
heerein
,
that
in
time
of
their
glory
,
flowing
with
the
Conquestes
and
spoiles
of
the
world
,
and
hauing
gotten
the
Goddesse
Victoria
to
Rome
,
they
clipt
her
wings
▪
and
set
her
vp
among
their
Gods
,
that
shée
might
take
her
flight
no
more
,
as
shee
had
formerly
done
from
the
Gretians
and
others
,
and
so
effeminating
their
valour
with
idlenesse
and
security
,
it
brought
confusion
and
ruine
to
their
state
.
Let
not
such
a
prize
of
hopefull
euents
,
so
lately
purchased
by
the
hazard
of
our
valiant
men
▪
in
the
déepe
Seas
of
forreine
dangers
,
now
perish
in
the
Hauen
by
our
neglect
,
the
liues
of
our
friends
already
planted
,
and
of
those
noble
Knights
and
Gentlemen
that
entend
to
goe
shortly
,
must
lie
at
our
mercy
to
be
reléeued
and
supplied
by
vs
,
or
to
be
made
a
prey
vnto
others
(
though
wee
feare
not
the
subiects
of
any
Prince
in
amity
,
that
they
will
offer
wrong
vnto
vs
:
)
And
howsoeuer
we
heare
tales
and
rumours
of
this
and
that
,
yet
be
not
dismaid
,
for
I
tell
you
,
if
we
find
that
any
miscreants
haue
wronged
,
or
goe
about
to
hurt
our
few
hundreds
there
,
we
shall
be
ready
to
right
it
againe
with
many
thousands
,
like
the
giant
Anteus
,
whose
often
foiles
renued
his
strength
the
more
.
And
consider
well
that
great
worke
of
fréeing
the
poore
Indians
from
the
deuourer
,
a
compassion
that
euery
good
man
(
but
passing
by
)
would
shew
vnto
a
beast
:
their
children
when
they
come
to
be
saued
,
will
blesse
the
day
when
first
their
fathers
saw
your
faces
.
If
those
vndaunted
English
and
Scottish
Captaines
▪
that
so
often
ventured
their
liues
,
and
spilt
their
blood
,
to
reconquer
Palestina
from
the
Turks
and
Sarazens
,
had
séen
the
gappe
so
open
in
their
daies
,
and
the
way
leading
to
so
many
goodly
purchases
,
certainely
it
had
not
now
béene
left
for
vs
to
doe
.
How
strange
a
thing
is
this
that
al
the
States
of
Europe
haue
béene
a
sleepe
so
long
?
that
for
an
hundred
yeres
and
more
,
the
wealth
and
riches
of
the
East
and
West
should
runne
no
other
current
but
into
one
coffer
,
so
long
til
the
running
ouer
,
spread
it selfe
abundantly
among
a
factious
crew
of
new
created
Friers
,
and
that
to
no
more
speciall
end
,
then
with
instigating
bloody
plots
to
pierce
the
heart
of
a
Christian
State
and
true
Religion
.
It
is
long
since
I
read
in
a
little
treatise
,
made
by
Frith
an
English
Martyre
,
an
excellent
foretelling
touching
the
happinesse
of
these
Northerne
Ilands
,
and
of
great
wonders
that
should
bee
wrought
by
Scots
and
English
,
before
the
comming
of
Christ
,
but
I
haue
almost
forgotten
,
and
cannot
readily
call
it
to
mind
as
I
would
,
and
therefore
I
omitte
it
now
,
Protesting
vnto
you
,
it
would
bee
my
griefe
and
sorrow
,
to
bee
exempted
from
the
company
of
so
many
honorable
minded
men
,
and
from
this
enterprise
,
tending
to
so
many
good
ends
,
and
then
which
,
I
truely
thinke
this
day
,
there
is
not
a
worke
of
more
excellent
hope
vnder
the
Sun
,
and
farre
excelling
(
all
circumstances
wayed
)
those
Noble
deeds
of
Alexander
,
Hercules
and
those
heathen
Monarks
,
for
which
they
were
deemed
Gods
among
their
posterity
.
And
so
I
leaue
it
to
your
consideration
,
with
a
memorable
note
of
Thomas
Lord
Howard
Earle
of
Surry
,
when
K.
Henry
the
eight
,
with
his
Nobles
at
Douer
tooke
shipping
for
Turwin
&
Turney
,
and
bidding
the
said
Earle
farewel
,
whom
he
made
Gouernour
in
his
absence
,
the
Story
sayth
the
Nobleman
wept
,
and
tooke
his
leaue
with
teares
,
an
admirable
good
nature
in
a
valiant
minde
,
greeuing
to
be
left
behinde
his
Prince
and
Peeres
in
such
an
honourable
seruice
.
