time_n to_o gather_v our_o fruit_n in_o as_o when_o those_o planet_n and_o star_n which_o be_v the_o principal_a author_n of_o that_o heat_n &_o moisture_n be_v themselves_o become_v cold_a and_o dry_a or_o at_o the_o least_o not_o hot_a and_o moist_a in_o any_o high_a degree_n the_o moon_n when_o she_o be_v in_o the_o wane_a be_v cold_a and_o dry_a if_o there_o be_v any_o fruit_n gather_v when_o the_o moon_n abound_v with_o heat_n and_o moisture_n the_o very_a same_o quality_n will_v also_o the_o fruit_n abound_v withal_o and_o so_o they_o will_v very_o soon_o be_v putrify_v as_o every_o man_n of_o any_o wit_n will_v easy_o judge_v and_o therefore_o all_o those_o that_o have_v write_v of_o husbandry_n with_o one_o consent_n do_v give_v it_o for_o a_o precept_n that_o fruit_n be_v to_o be_v gather_v in_o the_o decay_n of_o the_o moon_n moreover_o the_o night_n and_o the_o day_n the_o morning_n and_o the_o evening_n do_v bestow_v their_o moisture_n and_o their_o dryness_n upon_o fruit_n according_o as_o they_o themselves_o be_v either_o moist_a or_o dry_a the_o day_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v hot_a and_o dry_a the_o night_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o absence_n of_o the_o sun_n be_v cold_a and_o moist_a the_o evening_n by_o reason_n that_o it_o have_v a_o little_a of_o the_o sun_n be_v partly_o warm_a and_o yet_o withal_o by_o reason_n of_o the_o approach_a night_n be_v partly_o moist_a the_o morning_n be_v partly_o cold_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o tail_n of_o the_o night_n and_o partly_o warm_a by_o reason_n of_o the_o sun_n approach_v so_o then_o let_v two_o or_o three_o hour_n of_o the_o day_n be_v spend_v and_o then_o the_o time_n will_v be_v somewhat_o dry_a because_o it_o have_v begin_v to_o be_v a_o little_a acquaint_v with_o the_o sun_n and_o withal_o somewhat_o cold_a because_o it_o have_v not_o yet_o quite_o forget_v and_o shake_v off_o the_o night_n and_o this_o be_v in_o all_o man_n judgement_n the_o best_a and_o the_o fit_a time_n wherein_o to_o gather_v fruit_n but_o lest_o we_o shall_v make_v the_o matter_n too_o hard_a and_o difficult_a by_o give_v such_o astrological_a precept_n we_o will_v frame_v ourselves_o to_o the_o plain_a and_o yet_o a_o very_a exact_a rule_n namely_o that_o the_o situation_n and_o aspect_n of_o the_o planet_n be_v to_o be_v regard_v whereby_o the_o air_n become_v cold_a and_o dry_a then_o at_o other_o time_n and_o so_o consequent_o the_o fruit_n may_v last_v the_o long_o and_o because_o we_o will_v not_o be_v too_o tedious_a we_o will_v spare_v to_o allege_v

do_v grow_v much_o more_o than_o they_o that_o be_v gendr_v when_o she_o be_v in_o the_o wane_a but_o let_v we_o come_v to_o example_n if_o you_o will_v know_v the_o time_n wherein_o citron_n be_v

you_o desire_v say_v he_o to_o keep_v citron_n long_o without_o any_o harm_n or_o loss_n of_o their_o vigour_n you_o must_v take_v this_o course_n pluck_v off_o the_o fruit_n together_o with_o the_o branch_n &_o leaf_n as_o they_o be_v upon_o the_o tree_n in_o the_o night_n time_n when_o the_o moon_n shine_v not_o at_o all_o then_o hang_v they_o up_o upon_o some_o hook_n or_o tack_n in_o some_o
