Secondly, The poorer tenants will have something valuable of their own, which by law may be made liable to a distress, and help to pay their landlord's rent, their corn and cattle being already seized, and money a thing unknown.

둘째로, 가난한 소작농들은 법에 따라 압류의 대상이 될 수 있는 자신들만의 가치 있는 무언가를 갖게 될 것이며, 이미 곡식과 가축은 압수된 데다 돈이란 것은 알지도 못하는 형편에서, 지주의 임대료를 갚는 데 도움이 될 것입니다.

Thirdly, Whereas the maintainance of a hundred thousand children, from two years old, and upwards, cannot be computed at less than ten shillings a piece per annum, the nation's stock will be thereby encreased fifty thousand pounds per annum, besides the profit of a new dish, introduced to the tables of all gentlemen of fortune in the kingdom, who have any refinement in taste.

셋째로, 두 살 이상 되는 아이 십만 명을 부양하는 데 드는 비용이 연간 일인당 최소 열 실링 이하로는 계산될 수 없으므로, 국가의 자산은 이로 인해 연간 오만 파운드가 증가할 것이며, 이에 더하여 미각에 있어 어느 정도의 세련됨을 갖춘 왕국 내 모든 유복한 신사들의 식탁에 소개될 새로운 요리로부터 얻는 이익도 생길 것입니다.

And the money will circulate among our selves, the goods being entirely of our own growth and manufacture.

그리고 그 물품이 전적으로 우리 자신의 생산과 제조로 이루어진 것인 만큼, 돈은 우리들 사이에서 순환하게 될 것입니다.

Fourthly, The constant breeders, besides the gain of eight shillings sterling per annum by the sale of their children, will be rid of the charge of maintaining them after the first year.

넷째로, 아이를 계속해서 낳는 부모들은 자녀를 판매함으로써 연간 팔 실링의 수입을 얻는 것 외에도, 첫 해가 지난 후 아이들을 부양해야 하는 부담에서 벗어나게 될 것입니다.

Fifthly, This food would likewise bring great custom to taverns, where the vintners will certainly be so prudent as to procure the best receipts for dressing it to perfection; and consequently have their houses frequented by all the fine gentlemen, who justly value themselves upon their knowledge in good eating; and a skilful cook, who understands how to oblige his guests, will contrive to make it as expensive as they please.

다섯째로, 이 식재료는 마찬가지로 선술집에 큰 손님을 불러올 것이며, 포도주 상인들은 분명히 이것을 완벽하게 조리하기 위한 최선의 조리법을 구하는 데 신중을 기할 것입니다. 그 결과 훌륭한 음식에 대한 지식을 정당하게 자부하는 모든 세련된 신사들이 그 집을 자주 찾게 될 것이며, 손님을 만족시키는 방법을 아는 솜씨 좋은 요리사는 그들이 원하는 만큼 비싸게 만들 궁리를 할 것입니다.

Sixthly, This would be a great inducement to marriage, which all wise nations have either encouraged by rewards, or enforced by laws and penalties.

여섯째로, 이는 결혼에 대한 큰 유인이 될 것이며, 모든 현명한 나라들은 결혼을 보상으로 장려하거나 법률과 처벌로 강제해 왔습니다.
