or 17,000 less than the 696,000 of London alone.

2. That the people of the two English cities and emporiums—viz., of London, 696,000, and Bristol, 48,000—do make 744,000, or more than

In Paris 488,000
Amsterdam 187,090
Rouen 66,000
Being in all 741,000

3. That the same two English cities seem equivalent

To Paris, which hath 488,000 souls.
Rouen 66,000
Lyons 100,000
Toulouse 90,000
In all 744,000

If there be any error in these conjectures concerning these cities of France, we hope they will be mended by those whom we hear to be now at work upon that matter.
