A good Motion .

IF the rich will deale their Bread to the Hungry , as Isaiah 58. 7. by forbearing one Mealss Meat in a weeke , and giving the value of it but for one yeare to maintaine the Children of the poore : and the poore doe the like to maintaine their owne Children ; the rich may be re-imbursed in one yeare ( without any doubt of Sacriledge ) the foure hundred thousand pounds lent upon the assurance of the Bishops Temporalities ( which will bee six yeares sooner then all the rich are likely by a doubted course to get in their Monies ) the Children of the poore may have the whole revenue of the Bishops Temporalities to breed them up in Learning . A glorious University may be founded in London , every Bishops House in the Countries be imployed as Eaton Colledge , Victuals become cheaper , spirituall and corporall Famine be avoided : And all these ( in reason ) be certainly effected without expence of one halfe penny .

For if the value of one Meale in a weeke in each Parish ( one with another ) amounteth but to twenty shillings ) there being almost ten thousand Parishes in England ) and ten thousand pound weekly amounteth to five hundred thousand pounds in one yeare ; then in one yeare the foure hundred thousand pounds will be re-imbursed with an overplus . And God , the Rich , the Poore ( yea all ) be well pleased .
