the_o first_o that_o be_v the_o illustrious_a gard'ner_n how_o to_o find_v and_o attain_v easy_o the_o true_a divertisement_n of_o garden_n and_o the_o other_o i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o instruct_v and_o render_v fit_a and_o capable_a artful_o to_o perform_v all_o the_o duty_n of_o their_o call_v and_o quality_n my_o design_n appear_v very_o great_a and_o very_o specious_a and_o therefore_o must_v be_v manage_v with_o some_o order_n that_o which_o i_o purpose_v to_o follow_v be_v this_o i_o will_v divide_v the_o work_n into_o six_o part_n every_o one_o of_o which_o i_o shall_v make_v a_o

not_o to_o be_v reasonable_o well_o instruct_v in_o the_o management_n of_o they_o and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n i_o will_v show_v that_o it_o be_v very_o easy_a to_o acquire_v a_o general_a and_o sufficient_a knowledge_n in_o it_o there_o be_v nothing_o else_o needful_a to_o be_v do_v for_o that_o but_o careful_o to_o read_v and_o order_n to_o be_v exact_o observe_v a_o little_a abridgement_n of_o the_o rule_n of_o gard'ning_n which_o i_o have_v draw_v up_o by_o way_n of_o aphorism_n in_o the_o three_o chapter_n of_o the_o first_o book_n and_o afterward_o in_o the_o same_o first_o part_n i_o will_v if_o my_o judgement_n deceive_v i_o not_o give_v direction_n how_o to_o make_v a_o discreet_a choice_n of_o able_a gard'ner_n which_o i_o reckon_v to_o be_v one_o of_o the_o most_o important_a point_n to_o be_v look_v after_o in_o this_o matter_n and_o last_o to_o prevent_v any_o doubt_n or_o perplexity_n our_o gentleman_n candidate_n or_o young_a beginner_n in_o these_o curiosity_n may_v fall_v into_o for_o want_v of_o a_o right_a understanding_n of_o certain_a term_n of_o garden_v which_o i_o shall_v use_v in_o this_o treatise_n i_o have_v add_v a_o little_a dictionary_n of_o they_o at_o the_o end_n which_o give_v as_o full_a a_o explanation_n of_o they_o as_o be_v necessary_a to_o make_v they_o intelligible_a to_o the_o mean_a reader_n in_o the_o second_o part_n i_o shall_v first_o show_v what_o quality_n be_v necessary_a to_o make_v any_o piece_n of_o ground_n fit_a to_o be_v convert_v into_o a_o garden_n that_o may_v be_v both_o profitable_a and_o delightful_a next_o i_o shall_v direct_v what_o be_v to_o be_v do_v in_o order_n to_o the_o right_a preparation_n of_o those_o ground_n that_o be_v natural_o pretty_a good_a and_o the_o

choice_a sort_n of_o fruit_n that_o gentleman_n may_v not_o only_o be_v thereby_o induce_v to_o choose_v none_o but_o they_o but_o may_v be_v direct_v how_o to_o proportion_v the_o number_n of_o each_o of_o they_o in_o every_o garden_n and_o because_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o know_v only_o in_o general_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a sort_n of_o fruit_n i_o shall_v also_o specify_v in_o

each_o tree_n may_v be_v expect_v to_o yield_v at_o its_o first_o beginning_n to_o bear_v after_o three_o four_o five_o or_o six_o year_n plant_v when_o it_o be_v well_o order_v that_o gentleman_n

and_o prosper_v and_o second_o how_o to_o choose_v such_o well_o qualify_v stock_n of_o every_o sort_n of_o tree_n as_o may_v true_o deserve_v a_o place_n in_o a_o garden_n three_o how_o to_o prepare_v they_o by_o trim_v both_o their_o top_n and_o root_n in_o order_n to_o plant_v they_o and_o last_o how_o to_o plant_v they_o well_o all_o which_o be_v observation_n so_o absolute_o necessary_a that_o without_o they_o it_o be_v impossible_a not_o to_o commit_v very_o great_a error_n in_o the_o four_o part_n i_o will_v treat_v of_o the_o prune_n of_o tree_n according_a to_o the_o method_n practise_v by_o myself_o and_o afterward_o i_o will_v describe_v my_o way_n of_o pinch_v some_o of_o they_o and_o of_o disbudding_a or_o thin_a their_o leave_n nail_v they_o up_o etc._n etc._n in_o the_o five_o part_n i_o will_v direct_v how_o to_o thin_v they_o of_o their_o fruit_n by_o pluck_v off_o as_o many_o as_o occasion_n shall_v require_v where_o they_o grow_v too_o thick_a for_o we_o be_v not_o to_o leave_v so_o many_o fruit_n upon_o a_o tree_n as_o it_o have_v blossom_n but_o have_v reason_n rather_o to_o be_v suspicious_a of_o those_o that_o blossom_n too_o much_o the_o excess_n of_o their_o good_a will_n if_o i_o may_v so_o say_v be_v to_o be_v reckon_v a_o great_a fault_n because_o it_o most_o certain_o disable_v they_o from_o bring_v their_o product_n to_o

second_o be_v that_o likewise_o for_o want_v of_o due_o understand_v what_o situation_n agree_v best_a with_o each_o sort_n of_o tree_n a_o considerable_a number_n of_o they_o be_v often_o unlucky_o plant_v in_o unkindly_a place_n and_o be_v it_o possible_a for_o a_o man_n animate_v with_o so_o warm_a a_o zeal_n for_o gard'n_v as_o i_o be_o not_o to_o be_v sensible_o touch_v at_o all_o these_o misfortune_n and_o not_o to_o have_v some_o compassion_n upon_o those_o that_o unwary_o engage_v in_o the_o curiosity_n of_o the_o plant_v and_o culture_n of_o fruit_n without_o qualify_a themselves_o with_o some_o little_a knowledge_n in_o it_o no_o certain_o and_o therefore_o as_o far_o as_o possible_o i_o can_v i_o will_v endeavour_v to_o prevent_v all_o those_o fault_n and_o to_o lay_v down_o direction_n how_o to_o plant_v with_o so_o much_o circumspection_n for_o the_o future_a that_o if_o a_o gentleman_n have_v a_o garden_n big_a enough_o to_o receive_v any_o reasonable_a number_n of_o tree_n he_o may_v have_v in_o it_o all_o the_o principal_a sort_n of_o fruit_n that_o be_v to_o be_v have_v for_o every_o season_n of_o the_o year_n this_o reason_n that_o concern_v the_o contrive_n of_o a_o continual_a successive_a supply_n of_o fruit_n throughout_o all_o the_o season_n may_v prevail_v with_o i_o sometime_o in_o plantation_n to_o prefer_v a_o mean_a fruit_n before_o a_o better_a and_o that_o because_o the_o better_a come_v in_o in_o a_o time_n when_o i_o may_v have_v a_o sufficient_a provision_n of_o other_o admirable_a sort_n beside_o and_o the_o mean_a one_o come_v in_o a_o season_n when_o the_o scarcity_n of_o the_o most_o excellent_a fruit_n be_v very_o great_a we_o think_v ourselves_o very_o happy_a if_o we_o can_v be_v supply_v at_o least_o with_o some_o of_o a_o middling_a goodness_n and_o according_o for_o instance_n if_o i_o have_v but_o little_a room_n for_o dwarf_n pear-tree_n i_o will_v plant_v sometime_o a_o dry_a martin_n or_o a_o bugi_n which_o be_v pretty_a good_a winter_n pear_n before_o a_o robine_n or_o a_o musked_a summer_n boncretien_n etc._n etc._n which_o be_v summer_n fruit_n much_o better_o in_o themselves_o than_o the_o two_o precedent_a one_o i_o shall_v afterward_o show_v what_o reason_n oblige_v i_o to_o follow_v this_o method_n they_o which_o as_o i_o may_v without_o vanity_n say_v know_v not_o so_o much_o in_o this_o matter_n as_o i_o do_v may_v perhaps_o be_v surprise_v at_o such_o a_o choice_n which_o without_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o particular_a circumstance_n that_o influence_v i_o to_o make_v it_o will_v appear_v somewhat_o odd_a but_o i_o dare_v assure_v they_o they_o will_v not_o find_v it_o not_o very_o easy_a to_o censure_v my_o conduct_n if_o they_o will_v but_o allow_v themselves_o time_n to_o examine_v my_o reason_n but_o because_o if_o a_o gentleman_n be_v never_o so_o well_o experience_v in_o the_o knowledge_n of_o the_o good_a sort_n of_o fruit_n he_o will_v be_v never_o the_o further_o advance_v if_o it_o be_v very_o difficult_a or_o perhaps_o impossible_a to_o find_v they_o in_o the_o nursery_n garden_n this_o be_v the_o answer_n i_o make_v to_o so_o important_a a_o difficulty_n i_o hope_v my_o exactness_n in_o the_o choice_n and_o proportion_n of_o fruit_n i_o shall_v prescribe_v will_v produce_v a_o regulation_n and_o kind_n of_o reformation_n in_o all_o nursery_n garden_n i_o mean_v that_o it_o will_v not_o only_o banish_v all_o confusion_n and_o effect_n of_o unskilfullness_n out_o of_o they_o that_o have_v be_v ill_o contrive_v but_o will_v cause_v new_a one_o to_o be_v model_v with_o all_o possible_a art_n and_o understanding_n and_o than_o it_o will_v happen_v that_o instead_o of_o graft_v any_o more_o either_o of_o those_o kind_n i_o reject_v by_o name_n or_o of_o those_o i_o name_v not_o that_o both_o of_o they_o will_v grow_v so_o much_o out_o of_o request_n that_o they_o will_v be_v but_o lose_v to_o the_o gard'ner_n and_o consequent_o they_o will_v be_v oblige_v for_o their_o own_o interest_n to_o graft_v only_o those_o which_o i_o express_v some_o esteem_n for_o whether_o they_o be_v new_a or_o ancient_a kind_n and_o none_o at_o all_o of_o the_o other_o and_o few_o of_o those_o of_o which_o few_o be_v to_o be_v plant_v and_o more_o of_o those_o of_o which_o i_o advise_v to_o plant_v the_o great_a number_n by_o which_o mean_n the_o able_a plant-merchant_n may_v be_v assure_v of_o a_o good_a and_o never-failing_a vent_n for_o their_o good_n on_o one_o side_n which_o may_v encourage_v they_o to_o do_v better_a and_o better_o
