But the main and cheif Trades of all, are the _Turkey_ and _East-India_ Trades, and the Riches by those Companies procured, cheifly by Woollen-cloaths, So highly Advantagious to the _King_ in His Customs, to the Companies in particular, and to the whole Kingdom in the general, as is not a thing easily to be known or computed. [Sidenote: _+East-India+ Company._] [Sidenote: _The +Dutch+ have spoiled our trade in the South seas._] How the _Turkey_ Company in particular by their discreet management of the Trade in those parts, with that commodity of Woollen-cloaths chiefly, do bring into _England_, all the rich Goods from all parts of the _Streights_, and how the _East-India_ Company, by their Trade in the same commodity, (_in a great measure_) do purchase the Rich commodities of _India_, _Persia_, _China_, and the _South-seas_, with the Odoriferous Drugs of _Arabia_, and all such Goods as those countries afford for necessary Use and Delight, although of late years the _Dutch_ have wrought us out of a great part of the _South-Sea_ Trade, of which more might be largely spoken concerning their usage of our _English-men_ in those parts; but that it hath bin already sufficiently laid out in Print, to the veiw of the _English_ Nation. [Sidenote: _Good ships built yearly._] [Sidenote: _Seamen bred up._] [Sidenote: _Merchants grow rich._] [Sidenote: _Can lend the king money._] And to add a little to what was before intimated, what excellent Ships are annually built and prepared for the services of these two Honorable Companies, whose imployment as aforesaid, is principally for the Exportation of our Woollen-cloaths, and if we do look back but to thirty years past, four or five Ships of the _Turk_’s men of War durst not adventure upon one of our _Smirna_ Ships, and also how worthy is it of Consideration, to take notice how many of our best Seamen, and Artists are bred up in those imployments by the two last worthy Companies Imployment; So that besides what Revenue is brought to the _King_ in his Customs, by these great Sea-Trades of these worthy Companies mentioned, both for the Exportation of their cloaths, _&c_, and the Importation of all manner of Goods, by this Stock so purchased abroad in Forreign parts, our Merchants are grown marvellous Rich, in so much that they are able upon any necessary Occasion that His Majesty hath for Money, to furnish him at a weeks warning; and that which is worthy the noting also, our Seamen are grown of late years to be the most famous in the world, to the great glory, honor, and safety of His Majesty and the Kingdom, and all this is evident by what hath bin said, to arise cheifly (_next to the blessing of Heaven_) from the Manufacture of our Wool in _England_, by our own people, which how much it ought to be incouraged, and of what high concernment it is to the Honor, Wealth, and Security of the Kingdom, let the Sober and Judicious consider.
