the value of a Crown of Mark (to reduce the exchange to the value of 100 Crow.) give 100
Crow. of Mark, what will 28 Carlins give, the value of the
Crown of the Sun? And it will be Crow. 84 11/20, out of which must be abated ⅔ per cent. for provision payable ⅓ at Lions, and another ⅓ at Placentia, and there will remain Crow. 84 3/10, and at this price the remittance may be made from Placentia to Lions, to satisfie that debt, and finding to remit at less, that is at Crow. 81½, it appeareth plainly to be to profit to draw and to remit according to the aforesaid Order, in which also lies this consideration, that the money of Placentia for Lions may also vary from the said price.

Again, from
Venice there is Order given to Mesina, to
draw upon them at l. 6. 14, and to re∣mit to
Placentia at Carlins 29, the partido being for
Crowns 2000 of Mark. Now there are Bills for
Placentia found at Carlins 29½, and money for
Venice at l. 6. 12. 6, I demand if at these prices the said Commission may be effected? Say by the Rule of Three, taking one of the prices that is found for divisor, because that from Mesina to Venice it giveth the price certain, and to Pla∣centia the incertain, saying thus, If Carlins
29½ the price found for Placentia, give Sol. 134, which are the said l. 6. 14. what will Carlins 29 give, the price inordered? And it will make Sol. 131¼, or thereabout, so that the said Commission may not be effected but to loss, seeing that remitting to Placentia at the said price of
29½ Carl the draught, cannot be made to
Venice at more than Sol. 131¼, and money is not found but at Sol. 132½, which are the said l. 6. 12. 6

Again, from
Naples there is an exchange made for Mesina at
Duc. 118 1/31, and for Placentia at Duc.
132⅓. Now there is order given in Naples, that at these rates, they draw for Mesina, and that they
remit to Placentia, I demand then at how much will the
remittance be from Mesina to Pla∣centia? Say by
the Rule of Three, If grains 118⅓ make disbursed in
Mesina Carl. 26, the price of the Crow. of Taries
13, how many will 132⅓ grains disbursed be, the value of the
Crow. of Mark? It will make Carlins 29, and ⅔ of a
grain, and so many Carlins (and then ⅖ per cent. for
