you_o must_v take_v heed_n that_o the_o sprout_n grow_v upright_o and_o if_o it_o will_v not_o you_o must_v constrain_v it_o and_o tie_v it_o to_o a_o stick_n here_o follow_v certain_a instruction_n how_o the_o tree_n must_v be_v keep_v and_o how_o you_o must_v labour_v they_o some_o tree_n will_v have_v a_o far_a ground_n as_o fig_n tree_n and_o mulberry_n tree_n and_o some_o lean_a ground_n

or_o five_o foot_n off_o from_o it_o round_o about_o the_o tree_n according_a as_o the_o tree_n be_v in_o bigness_n or_o that_o the_o root_n be_v large_a and_o great_a such_o diligence_n give_v to_o the_o tree_n great_a help_n for_o their_o nourishment_n and_o strength_n be_v thereby_o renew_v hereafter_o you_o shall_v understand_v whereby_o to_o know_v the_o fruitful_a soil_n 4._o in_o the_o fat_a ground_n the_o stump_n whereupon_o you_o will_v graft_v must_v be_v leave_v long_o but_o in_o lean_a ground_n short_a 5._o the_o plant_n of_o tree_n from_o their_o youth_n till_o three_o year_n

the_o ground_n be_v neither_o too_o soft_a nor_o too_o hard_a then_o may_v you_o choose_v all_o kind_n of_o stump_n in_o february_n for_o to_o plant_v when_o the_o green_a juice_n be_v disperse_v in_o

and_o tie_v it_o with_o bark_n and_o after_o in_o march_n when_o tree_n be_v transpose_v from_o one_o place_n to_o another_o than_o cut_v the_o same_o branch_n from_o the_o tree_n and_o put_v it_o

and_o if_o so_o be_v the_o turn_v sprout_n prosper_v you_o must_v break_v off_o the_o other_o to_o the_o end_n that_o the_o turn_v sprour_n do_v not_o perish_v which_o you_o may_v try_v after_o this_o
