As one man is the same to the State as another
man, mans's interest as another man's interest
it is no matter to the State whether B.
who borrowed the money or L who lent it have
it at the long run, supposing as it supposed that things to be so order'd,
that the punishment shall not be such as that B, knowing & expecting it the punishment,
can think it worth his while to incur it
for the profit of the delinquency. If it be, that is if it be perceived so to be, by persons in the -ation of L, especially
after having once been otherwise, from
that moment Credit must receive a shock,
more or less severe, as the inequality of that

cannot get money to buy iron: there are his
men who cannot get the money they used to would receive
for the making of the trinkets, wares which are
loss or rather collection of trinkets; losses there are
the men at ....... to over intermediate Trades who would have been paid for
