    This statement was made by King James I of England in 1604. "A custom loathsome to the eye, hateful to the nose, harmful to the brain, dangerous to the lungs ..." Based on the quote, which profitable colonial industry was King James I referring to the growing of tobacco.

    Explanation:

    The colonial industry which was profitable about which king James I is talking, is the growing of tobacco. John Rolfe was the first person who grew tobacco in Virgina for the first time after getting the seeds of tobacco from Caribbean.

    The result was very profitable because a lot of tobacco was grown for internal consumption in America and was also exported to Europe. It was widely accepted in Europe also. So it was very profitable for the economy.
