your_o dung_n be_v mingle_v with_o sheeps-dung_n for_o when_o dung_v good_a and_o when_o sandy_a ground_n so_o much_o the_o better_o also_o if_o your_o ground_n be_v more_o cold_a pigeon_n dung_n be_v

that_o it_o may_v lie_v all_o or_o most_o part_n of_o the_o winter_n that_o so_o the_o turf_n if_o any_o be_v and_o the_o dung_n may_v be_v rot_n together_o then_o when_o the_o spring_n draw_v nigh_o you_o ought_v to_o lay_v on_o it_o a_o little_a more_o good_a dung_n be_v well_o rot_v or_o rank_a earth_n if_o you_o think_v your_o ground_n be_v not_o rank_n enough_o before_o and_o so_o dig_v it_o

of_o the_o sun_n which_o to_o set_v down_o the_o several_a name_n and_o kind_n according_a to_o each_o country_n and_o according_a to_o every_o quality_n will_v be_v a_o thing_n beyond_o my_o reach_n to_o perform_v beside_o it_o will_v be_v here_o altogether_o needless_a therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o trouble_v you_o with_o long_a tautology_n but_o come_v to_o our_o discourse_n intend_v when_o

opinion_n it_o be_v better_a to_o break_v off_o some_o of_o the_o leaf_n and_o branch_n and_o let_v they_o alone_o which_o be_v most_o usual_a till_o the_o second_o or_o three_o year_n and_o then_o
