I
have
already
computed
the
charge
of
nursing
a
beggar's
child
(in
which
list
I
reckon
all
cottagers,
laborers,
and
four-fifths
of
the
farmers)
to
be
about
two
shillings
per
annum,
rags
included;
and
I
believe
no
gentleman
would
repine
to
give
ten
shillings
for
the
carcass
of
a
good
fat
child,
which,
as
I
have
said,
will
make
four
dishes
of
excellent
nutritive
meat,
when
he
hath
only
some
particular
friend
or
his
own
family
to
dine
with
him.
Thus
the
squire
will
learn
to
be
a
good
landlord,
and
grow
popular
among
his
tenants;
the
mother
will
have
eight
shillings
net
profit,
and
be
fit
for
work
till
she
produces
another
child.
The replay is still saving.
