and_o next_o by_o strengthen_v or_o assist_v the_o internal_a heat_n that_o be_v in_o the_o earth_n the_o way_n to_o restrain_v external_a cold_a be_v in_o a_o special_a manner_n by_o plant_v and_o

of_o external_a cold_a be_v no_o small_a encouragement_n to_o growth_n of_o corn_n and_o grass_n &c_n &c_n beside_o the_o reason_n give_v for_o it_o in_o the_o first_o chapter_n i_o shall_v tell_v

passage_n but_o only_o through_o the_o gape_v of_o a_o hedge_n or_o stone-wall_n the_o ground_n there_o in_o the_o same_o very_a bit_n and_o no_o where_o else_o near_o it_o have_v be_v visible_o a_o

have_v speak_v of_o manure_v or_o dung_v the_o ground_n in_o chapter_n second_o and_o give_v a_o hint_n of_o what_o kind_n of_o dung_n or_o manure_n be_v fit_a for_o every_o several_a kind_n of_o

when_o it_o be_v a_o little_a harden_v be_v only_o dissolve_v by_o frost_n and_o nothing_o else_o and_o thence_o the_o cause_n be_v that_o marle_n ever_o work_v better_a effect_v the_o second_o year_n than_o the_o first_o this_o marl_n have_v be_v make_v so_o precious_a by_o some_o writer_n that_o it_o have_v be_v account_v a_o five_o element_n but_o of_o this_o curiosity_n i_o will_v not_o now_o
