exportatioji of Piedmontese raw silk ; so that be- 

 fore the said Sir Thomas Lombe could provide a 

 full supply of other raw silk proper for his pur- 

 pose, a.ter his engine, train up a sufficient number 

 of work-folk, and bring the manufacture to per- 

 fection, almost the whole of the said fourteen 

 years were run out. Therefore, as he has not 

 hitherto received the intended benefit of the afore- 

 said patent, and in consideration of the extraordi- 

 nary nature of his undertaking, the very great 

 expense, hazard, and difficulty, he has undergone, 

 as well as the advantage he has hereby procured 

 to the nation at his own expense, the said Sir 

 Thomas Lombe humbly hopes the parliament will 

 grant him a further term for the sole making and 

 using his engines, or such other recompense as in 

 their great wisdom shall seem meet." 



The Parliament considering the matter of much 

 public importance, thought it best to give him a 

 grant of ,£14,000, on condition that the invention 

 should be thrown open to the trade, and that a 

 model of the machine should be deposited in the 

 Tower of London for public inspection.
