corn_n in_o the_o golden_a vale_n of_o england_n be_v destroy_v through_o flood_n now_o as_o the_o husbandman_n may_v easy_o retain_v all_o the_o water_n that_o fall_v upon_o his_o own_o ground_n for_o his_o own_o profit_n and_o advantage_n in_o his_o several_a enclosure_n so_o may_v he_o as_o easy_o open_v a_o vent_n for_o his_o water_n at_o any_o time_n if_o there_o be_v cause_n and_o let_v
