shall_v be_v of_o more_o worth_n by_o the_o acre_n than_o 12_o acre_n of_o ordinary_a copice_n grove_n or_o vnderwood_n therefore_o i_o have_v not_o set_v too_o high_a a_o rate_n on_o the_o stuff_n

there_o be_v land_n in_o england_n sow_v with_o wheat_n that_o have_v yield_v at_o harvest_n 2_o load_v upon_o a_o acre_n which_o be_v 80_o bushel_n now_o this_o wheat_n if_o sell_v at_o the_o price_n market_n have_v give_v for_o 3_o or_o 4_o year_n past_a which_o be_v 8_o shilling_n the_o bushel_n than_o the_o profit_n of_o the_o acre_n by_o the_o year_n come_v to_o 32_o pound_n which_o be_v

or_o a_o plentiful_a harvest_n cause_n low_a market_n yet_o than_o this_o acre_n of_o land_n be_v worth_a 16_o pound_n yearly_o this_o may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o satisfy_v any_o reasonable_a man_n we_o shall_v return_v to_o our_o work_n now_o because_o it_o be_v a_o general_a custom_n in_o england_n at_o the_o fell_n of_o underwood_n to_o reserve_v young_a eat_v or_o standil_n to_o grow_v for_o timber-tree_n therefore_o in_o such_o wood_n you_o be_v not_o to_o leave_v they_o at_o a_o near_a distance_n than_o 4_o perch_n which_o be_v 72_o foot_n for_o if_o you_o leave_v they_o near_o the_o

for_o the_o first_o second_o and_o three_o distance_n of_o ground_n between_o plant_n also_o plant_v underwood_n iu_o dist._n the_o next_o or_o four_o distance_n be_v one_o perch_n or_o 18_o foot_n at_o this_o distance_n there_o may_v be_v dig_v or_o delve_v a_o plot_n of_o ground_n either_o square_a or_o round_o the_o quantity_n to_o contain_v 4_o foot_n square_a or_o 16_o foot_n of_o ground_n
