tree_n except_o they_o have_v store_n of_o moisture_n tree_n water_n tree_n will_v hardly_o grow_v to_o any_o goodness_n and_o the_o chief_a of_o those_o tree_n that_o most_o desire_n to_o grow_v in_o

those_o tree_n always_o stand_v in_o or_o low_a than_o the_o water_n or_o else_o they_o will_v prosper_v but_o poor_o experience_n also_o be_v see_v hereof_o in_o our_o own_o country_n that_o these_o
