p8 A Dfcripion of CHAP. XXIL Of Weights and Meafures. BEfore the Dutch arriv'd on our Coafts, we had a certain way of reckoning things, whereby we could know when their Numbers were equal or unequal ^ but we had no kind of weight, fuch as a Pound or an Ounce, and therefore we bought and fold things by View, and not by Weight, Bat after the Hollanders came among us, and ihew'd us how profitable the ufe of Pounds and Ounces would be in Commerce, we begun to weigh things that are rare, by Ounces and Pounds; but things that are common and lefs valuable, by 50, or I GO A weight at a time, as the Buyer and Seller had a mind : Our Pound agrees with the Dutch Pound, which confifts of 16 Ounces, and is more than that Pound which is us'd in 'France : Which I found by a Copan of our Money that I brought with me to france^ which weighed more than one of the French Pounds, tho' it was but a Dutch Pound. Things are meafur'd in Formofa^ according to the People's various Humours , for fome ufe a greater, fome a lefs meafure ^ but the price is always fix'd according to the greatnefs of the meafure. The Inftrument wherewith we weigh things, Is fuch as is us'd by the Butchers here in England when they weigh their Meat, but fome arc bigger, and fome lefs, as occafions require. We had no Names for Numbers before the Dutch came amongft us, but we fufficiently declared
the Ifle Formofa. pp clar'd to one another what Number we meant by Signs on our Fingers •, but becaufe the Dutch did not underftand this way of Reckoning, they perfuaded us to invent Names to fignilie Numbers, which now we ufe after the fame manner as they do, proceeding from One to Ten, from Ten to Twenty, and fo to a Hundred, a Thoufand, ^^6 As appears in this Example ; 1 2 3 4.5 ^ Taufb Bogio Charhe Kwrh 'Nokin De/cie 7 8 $> lo II u Mem Thenio Soma Kon Amkon or Taufkon 12 13 14 15 16 Bogiokon Cbarhekon Kiorhkon Nokiekon Dekiekon 17 18 19 20 Menikon Thenikon Somokon Borhny^ after this 21 22 Borhny-tauf or am Borhny Bogio^ and fo on to 30 40 50 60 70 Chorhny Kiorhny "Kokiorhny Dekiorhny Menicrhny 80 90 100 1000 Theniorhny Soniorhny Fto?nfj?ftomm and hnate^ fo 1000, 200.0, ^c.
