fruit_n which_o by_o experience_n be_v find_v to_o be_v good_a for_o cider_n and_o then_o every_o man_n may_v take_v where_o he_o like_v and_o please_v his_o palate_n with_o that_o that_o suit_v best_a with_o it_o but_o without_o doubt_n the_o redstreak_n which_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o wilding_n and_o somewhat_o hard_a and_o brisk_a and_o general_o all_o hard_a apple_n and_o wilding_n which_o have_v a_o lively_a pert_a brisk_a juice_n so_o that_o they_o come_v not_o too_o near_o the_o degree_n of_o stark_a crab_n all_o these_o kind_n i_o say_v make_v excellent_a cider_n which_o experience_n show_v and_o confirm_v from_o year_n to_o year_n cider_n make_v of_o hard_a kind_n harsh_a fruit_n be_v not_o so_o soon_o ready_a for_o drink_v as_o that_o of_o summer_n fruit_n and_o those_o more_o pleasant_a that_o make_v a_o table-fruit_n be_v early_o ripe_v be_v ready_a to_o drink_v even_o so_o soon_o as_o it_o be_v well_o settle_a and_o clear_v but_o that_o of_o hard_a apple_n
