often_o water_v of_o the_o tree_n or_o plant_n with_o that_o substance_n which_o we_o desire_v they_o shall_v partake_v of_o for_o this_o be_v certain_a and_o we_o see_v it_o by_o manifest_a

as_o if_o tree_n grow_v upon_o a_o low_a moist_a waterish_a ground_n the_o fruit_n will_v be_v more_o spungy_a and_o waterish_a than_o the_o same_o kind_n of_o fruit_n where_o the_o tree_n grow_v
