making it into whites, which is that we call Lump-Sugar in _England_, and then the price will be doubled to 4130400. out of which we will abate ¼ for waste, and what is cut off from the tops and bottoms of the pots, which will be good Muscavadoes; but we will abate for that, and waste ¼ which is 1032600. and that we will substract from 4130400. and there remaines 3097800. which is the totall of the revenue of Sugars, that grow on the _Barbadoes_ for twenty months, and accounted there, upon the Iland, at the Bridge. But if you will run the Hazards of the Sea, as all Marchants doe, and bring it for England, it will sell in London, for 12 d. the pound, and so ’tis doubled againe; and then it will amount to 6195600. and in two months time more it will be in England. Now you see what a vast Revenew this little spot of ground can produce in 22 months time; And so I have done with this plant, onely one touch more, to conclude with all; as Musicians, that first play a Preludium, next a Lesson, and then a Saraband; which is the life and spirit of all the rest. So having played you a short Preludium, to this long and tedious lesson of Sugar and Sugar-making, I do think fit to give you a Saraband, with my best Touches at last; which shall be only this, that as this plant has a faculty, to preserve all fruits, that grow in the world, from corruption and putrifaction; So it has a vertue, being rightly applyed, to preserve us men in our healths and fortunes too. Doctor _Butler_ one of the most learned and famous Physitians that this Nation, or the world ever bred, was wont to say that, _If Sugar can preserve both Peares and Plumbs, Why can it not preserve as well our Lungs?_ And that it might work the same effect on himselfe, he alwayes dranke in his Claret wine, great store of the best refin’d Sugar, and also prescribed it severall wayes to his Patients, for Colds, Coughs, and Catarrs; which are diseases, that reign much in cold Climats, especially in Ilands, where the Ayre is moyster then in Continents; and so much for our Health. Now for our fortunes, they are not only preserv’d, but made by the powerfull operation of this plant.
