procrear
EN I do therefore humbly offer it to public consideration that of the hundred and twenty thousand children already computed, twenty thousand may be reserved for breed, whereof only one-fourth part to be males; which is more than we allow to sheep, black cattle or swine; and my reason is, that these children are seldom the fruits of marriage, a circumstance not much regarded by our savages, therefore one male will be sufficient to serve four females.
GL Polo tanto, propoño humildemente isto á consideración do Estado: dos cento vinte mil nenos xa calculados, vinte mil poden reservarse para procrear, deses só unha cuarta parte son machos, que é máis do que lle permitimos ás ovellas, ó gando ou ós porcos; e o meu razoamento é que eses nenos rara vez son froito dun matrimonio, circunstancia que os nosos salvaxes non consideran moito, así que un macho será suficiente para servir a catro femias.
