The Remedy.

Severe letters should be written to the Officers in all Ports, & they also take an oath that they suffer no exportation of Wool and Fullers Earth beyond Seas upon pain and forfeiture of their places, and such other punishments as shall be requisite, That the lawes for true making woollen manufactures, be strengthened, revived, & executed, against transgressours; & that no more charge be laid on them then the market abroad will bear, to the end the Merchant may afford to sell them at as low a price as any of the same kind made in another Country, which will discourage their making any, when we can undersell them, and encourage the wearer to buy of those made in England, rather than 〈◊〉 made in another Country, having as good and better cheap, so they being taken off from ma∣••••, will neither want nor desire the materialls of wool and fulling earth, and this with a Bank and other good Orders, will hinder Packers and others in buying Draperies and Shipping them off for strangers, which neither the Lawes nor Oathes can restrain.

That no woollen cloth be suffered to be imported out of Holland, as now is, nor any other wool∣len Manufactures.
