to　be　committed　to　the　care　and　charge　of　the　principall　Cities
  and　Townes　in　the　Clothing　Counties；　because　by　ancient　Statutes
  not　repealed；　all　Clothes　and　Kersies　ought　to　bee　brought　to　the
  next　City；　Borough；　or　Towne　Corporate；　to　be　sealed；　before　they
  be　put　to　sale。　And　if　such　Clothes　so　sealed；　prove　defective；
  that　Corporation　or　Towneship　that　so　hath　sealed　them；　shall
  forfeit　the　whole　value　thereof。
  The　reformation　of　which　abuse　will　redound　to　the　benefit　of
  the　Clothier；　as　well　as　the　Merchant。　For　none　is　more　hurt　with
  false　Cloth；　then　that　Clothier　which　maketh　true　Cloth：　because
  his　markets　are　alwayes　hurt　by　the　cheapnesse　that　false　Cloth
  may　be　afforded　at。　Therefore　to　facilitate　this　Remedy；　I　have
  made　a　collection　of　all　the　principall　Cities　and　Townes　in　the
  Clothing　Counties　for　this　purpose；　as　by　a　list　thereof；　fixed
  to　the　end　of　this　discourse　may　appeare；　that　so　a　worke　of　this
  nature　be　no　longer　deferred；　wherein　the　Honour　of　the　King；　and
  the　Benefit　of　the　Publique　are　so　much　involved。
  Under　the　Merchant　I　observed　the　Cloth…Trade　to　suffer　at
  Home　and　Abroad：　At　Home；　either　by　exporting　the　Materials　of
  Clothing；　or　by　Ore…lading　the　Cloth…Trade　with　charge。　The
  Remedy　in　the　former；　were　to　lay　a　restraint　of　exportation　of
  Wools　and　Wool…fels　out　of　Ireland；　and　to　quicken　the　execution
  of　the　Statute　for　that　purpose　in　England；　by　encouraging　the
  discoverers　of　such　abuses。
  The　latter　is　the　Sur…charging　of　the　Cloth　Trade；　either
  generally　or　specially：　this　last；　in　the　Impositions　and　Impress
  monies　imposed　by　the　Merchant　Adventurers：　which　as　it　is　a
  charge　laid　upon　the　Drapery　of　the　Kingdome；　I　conceive；　under
  favour；　is　a　matter　that　trencheth　into　the　Suprmeme　power　and
  dignity　of　the　King；　and　is　peculiar　to　Him　alone。　And　if　for
  Government；　or　other　just　causes　in　Societies　and　Corporation；
  there　be　a　necessity　of　paying　of　debts；　or　defraying　of
  necessary　charge；　I　should　thinke　it　better　policy　to　spare　the
  Cloth；　and　other　the　Native　Commodities　of　the　Kingdom；　and　to
  implore　His　Majesties　favour；　to　levy　such　charge　upon　the
  Forreine　Commodities：　according　to　the　Counsell　of　Stephanus；　Si
  Vectigal　nouum　euitari　non　potest；　tune　onerentur　inerces
  perigrinae；　auae　ad　luxum　magis　quam　ad　necessitatem　faciunt。　And
  this　I　conceive　would　be　a　good　remedy　for　easing　the　Cloth　Trade
  of　the　present　charge　under　the　Merchants：　which　would　also　bee　a
  meanes　for　paying　of　their　debts；　with　a　little　more　length　of
  time；　and　a　great　deale　of　encouragement；　both　to　Clothiers　and
  Merchants　in　the　Cloth　Trade。
  And　Abroad；　if　it　appeare　upon　examination；　that　the
  Residence　of　the　Merchant　Adventurers　at　Delft　in　Holland　be
  inconvenient　for　the　Trade：　As　His　Majestie　was　graciously
  pleased　to　five　them　that　liberty　for　a　tryall；　so　it　may　please
  His　Majestie　to　dispose　thereof；　in　some　more　fit　place　for
  their's　and　the　Publique　good。
  The　Forreince　Causes　of　the　Decay　of　the　Drapery；　I　noted　to
  bee　Generall；　as　the　Warres；　or　Speciall；　as　the　great　Imposition
  in　Holland。　The　one　is　the　worke　of　God；　the　other　of　the　King；
  to　remove　the　same。　To　whom　I　recommend　them　both。
  And　thus　farre　for　the　Remedies　in　the　Matter　of　Trade；
  considered　in　Money　and　Merchandize：　the　Forme　followeth　in
  Governed　and　Ungoverned　Trade。　In　the　Former　I　observed　a　too
  strict；　and　in　the　latter　a　too　loose　forme　of　Trade。　The　Remedy
  in　the　One；　if　it　seeme　good　to　the　high　wisedome　of　His
  Majestie；　may　be　Privative；　in　racing　and　rooting　out　the　name
  and　use　of　Monopolies　from　amongst　this　Nation；　as　His　Majestie
  hath　royally　begun　in　that　His　Gracious　Proclamation　before
  mentioned。　And　to　free　and　open　the　course　of　Trade；　where　now　it
  is　unequally　stopt；　to　the　encouragement　of　the　subjects；　and　the
  benefit　of　the　Publique。
  In　the　other　Positive；　by　disposing　the　Trades　of　His
  Majesties　subjects　that　are　now　distracted；　into　Order　and
  Government。　Whereof　none　hath　more　need；　as　hath　been　shewed；
  then　those　that　Trade　into　the　Dominions　of　the　King　of　Spaine。
  Whose　Trade　the　rather　calleth　for　redresse；　because　it　exporteth
  Cloth　and　other　the　Manufactures　of　the　Kingdome；　and　importeth
  Treasure；　the　life　of　Trade：　In　both　which　thre　is　now　a
  marveilous　great　defect；　and　Trade　in　all　mens　hands　become　so
  poore　and　leane；　that　it　doth　scarce；　haerere　ossibus。　For　where
  Trade　is　disordred；　and　the　Traders　ungoverned；　there　they　are
  like　a　house　devided；　which　cannot　long　subsist：　according　to
  that　of　the　Orator；　Nec　domus　ulla；　nec　Civitas；　nec　Societas；
  nee　Gens；　nec　hominum　universum　genus　stare；　nec　rerum　natura
  omnis；　nec　fine　imperio　mundus　ipse　potest。
