themselves_o you_o must_v take_v graffe_n and_o so_o graft_v they_o of_o the_o manor_n and_o change_v of_o the_o fruit_n of_o the_o pepin_n tree_n when_o so_o ever_o you_o do_v replant_v or_o change_v your_o pepin_n tree_n from_o place_n to_o place_n in_o so_o remove_a often_o the_o stock_n the_o fruit_n thereof_o shall_v also_o change_v but_o the_o fruit_n which_o do_v come_v of_o graft_n do_v
