    The miseries of the poor are a national sin, shame, and charge but by making them happy, we shall remove that guilt, raise the glory, and double the wealth and strength of Great Britain ; and pay old debts without new taxes. By the Judicious Employment of the Poor (under One New General Law) and Present Taxes (without any Land-Tax) we may Justly and Gradually Discharge (within Twenty Years) All our National Debts: And whilst those Debts and Taxes are thus reducing, we shall farther receive (from the Regular Management of the Poor) much greater Benefits than the Payment of those Fifty Millions. A Due Care of the Poor is an Act of Great Piety towards Almighty God, an Act of the Greatest Humanity among Men, and of great Civil Prudence and Political Wisdom in relation to the State. - As things now are, our Populousness (which might be made the Greatest Blessing a Kingdom can have) becomes a Burden to the Nation; by breeding up whole Races, families, and Generations, in a mere Trade of Idleness, Thieving, and Beggin, and a barbarous kind of Life: which must in time prodigiously increase, and over-run the whole Face of the Kingdom, and Eat Out the very Heart thereof. Lord Chief Justice Hale, in ... upon employing the Poor

    An abstract of the draught of a bill for relieving, reforming, and employing the poor The united Wisdom of our Noble and Honourable Senators, may frame such a Bill (of which this Abstract is but an Imperfect Essay) as will probably answer All the Good Intentions of Thirty Statutes (now in force) relating to the Premisses: And the Principal Intents and Purposes of those numerous Laws, concerning the Poor, are Four, viz. First, Comfortably to maintain all those, whose Infancy, Age, or Infirmities, render them incapable of Labour; so that no Poor Briton, may be then obliged or permitted to beg. Secondly, To reform the Profligate Poor. Thirdly, In the most beneficial Manner (for Great Britain's Common Good) to Employ all the capable Poor; so that Th'industrious may never want Work; and the Lazr Poor be Compelled to Labour. And, Lastly, To reduce our Payments to the Poor, which are now supposed to be Twelve Hundred Thousand Pounds per annum Charge to Great Britain -- But this Great Burden this Scheme proposeth Totally to discharge in Thirty Years. Hereunto is prefix'd, A Brief Account of what was done by both Lords and Commons in 1704, for reducing all Laws, relating to the Poor, into One General Bill -- And also herein is set forth, the principal Considerations, upon which this Scheme is grounded, and the Publick Benefits from thence proceeding

To which is prefix'd, a brief account of three several bills, for the relief employment, and settlement of the poor, which, in 1704, the Right Honourable the House of Lords then order'd to be printed and published. The first of these, then had pass'd the House of Commons: the second was drawn by some of the then judges: the third was drawn by the then Lord Commissiners of trade

    Bishop Burnet's late History charg'd with great partiality and misrepresentations to make the present, and future ages believe, that Arthur Earl of Essex, in 1683, murdered himself. But the Memory of that Great Patriot, is here vindicated from that false Charge, and it's here prov'd, that his Lordship was barbarously Murder'd, in the Tower, the third Morning after his Commitment. And Mr. Braddon, in 1683, was Prosecuted and Fin'd Two Thousand Pounds, and order'd to give Security for his good Behaviour during Life, for Endeavouring, by Lawful Means, to discover this Murder; and he was imprison'd near Five Years, before the Revolution discharg'd him. And, in 1688, and 89 Mr. Braddon prosecuted that Inquiry, before a Secret Committee of Lord's; and near Sixty Witnesses were Examin'd, in relation to that Murder; and An Abstract of their Examinations, is here Reprinted; with Remarks thereupon. And the Reason given why the Lords, upon those Examinations, came to no Resolution, in relation to the manner of his Lordship's Death. With observations upon the suppos'd poysoning of King Charles the Second; and One of the most probable Causes thereof, is here mention'd. Written by Mr. Braddon
