now_o may_v you_o depart_v out_o of_o your_o garden_n till_o the_o march_n follow_v except_o in_o the_o mean_a time_n you_o will_v bring_v in_o dung_n or_o good_a earth_n to_o the_o maintenance_n

you_o must_v with_o a_o sharp_a knife_n cut_v away_o all_o such_o root_n or_o springe_n as_o grow_v the_o you_o be_v before_o out_o of_o your_o set_v within_o one_o inch_n of_o the_o same_o there_o
