that_o the_o precipitation_n that_o be_v in_o both_o those_o liquor_n happen_v by_o reason_n of_o their_o become_a acid_n if_o therefore_o you_o intend_v your_o cider_n shall_v retain_v its_o full_a

cherry_n the_o cause_n that_o the_o liquid_a part_n so_o easy_o part_n from_o the_o more_o solid_a may_v be_v from_o the_o great_a inequality_n in_o the_o proportion_n of_o the_o part_n the_o liquid_a
