some of lesse importance, And saith that from the Ports of Saint Mallo
Roane New haven flanders dover Genoa and Leghorne and other Ports
within and without the Streights, the usuall allowance to the Master and
Companie was and it upon each bale of goods two Royalls upon every duckat
of freight, or one Royall at the least, And that upon every voyage
whatsoever the Laders or ffreighters doe usually and generally give an
Allowance to the Masters and Companies of shipps by them employed
over and besides the freight due and payable to the Proprietors of
such shipp or shipps, which Allowances commonly knowne and
entitled by and with the name or title of primiage and Average the
