Usury at six per cent. examined, and found unjustly charged by Sir Tho. Culpepper and J.C. : with many crimes and oppressions, whereof 'tis altogether innocent. Wherein is shewed, the necessity of retrenching our luxury, and vain consumption of forraign commodities, imported by English money: : also the reducing the wages of servants, labourers, and workmen of all sorts, which raiseth the value of our manufactures, 15. or 20. per cent. dearer than our neighbours do afford them, by reason of their cheap wages: : wherein likewise is hinted, some of the many mischiefs that will ensue upon retrenching usury; : humbly presented to the High Court of Parliament now sitting
