The first part: contayning the knowledge of the true nature of euery soyle within this kingdome: how to plow it; and the manner of the plough, and other instruments belonging thereto. Together with the art of planting, grafting, and gardening after our latest and rarest fashion. A worke neuer written before by any author: and now newly compiled for the benefit of this kingdome.

now_o because_o i_o have_v in_o the_o former_a chapter_n speak_v of_o harrow_n and_o harrow_n yet_o have_v not_o deliver_v unto_o you_o the_o shape_n and_o proportion_n thereof_o and_o because_o both_o the_o wooden_a harrow_n and_o the_o iron_n harrow_v have_v all_o one_o shape_n and_o differ_v in_o nothing_o but_o the_o tooth_n only_o i_o think_v it_o not_o amiss_o before_o i_o proceed_v any_o further_a to_o show_v you_o in_o this_o figure_n the_o true_a shape_n of_o a_o right_a harrow_n the_o harrow_n the_o part_n of_o this_o harrow_n consist_v of_o bull_n staff_n and_o tooth_n of_o

distance_n one_o from_o the_o other_o and_o of_o tooth_n which_o be_v either_o long_a pin_n of_o wood_n or_o iron_n be_v at_o least_o five_o inch_n in_o length_n which_o be_v make_v fast_o and_o set_v slope-wise_a through_o the_o bull_n now_o you_o shall_v understand_v that_o harrow_n be_v of_o two_o kind_n harrow_n that_o be_v single_a and_o double_a the_o single_a harrow_n be_v call_v of_o

and_o the_o tooth_n must_v ever_o be_v of_o iron_n now_o whereas_o i_o speak_v of_o the_o horse-harrow_n and_o the_o oxe-harrow_n it_o be_v to_o be_v understand_v that_o the_o single_a harrow_n do_v belong_v to_o the_o horse_n because_o horse_n draw_v single_a do_v draw_v each_o a_o several_a harrow_n by_o himself_o albeit_o in_o the_o common_a use_n of_o harrow_n we_o couple_v two_o horse_n ever_o together_o and_o so_o make_v they_o draw_v two_o single_a harrow_n but_o ox_n not_o be_v in_o good_a husbandry_n to_o be_v separate_v because_o ever_o two_o must_v draw_v in_o one_o yoke_n therefore_o be_v the_o double_a harrow_n devise_v contain_v in_o substance_n and_o work_n as_o much_o as_o two_o single_a harrow_n now_o for_o the_o use_n of_o harrow_n harrow_n the_o wooden_a harrow_n which_o be_v the_o harrow_n with_o wooden_a tooth_n be_v ever_o to_o be_v use_v upon_o clay_n ground_n and_o light_a ground_n which_o through_o dryness_n do_v grow_v loose_a and_o fall_v to_o mould_n of_o it_o own_o nature_n as_o most_o common_o sand_n ground_n do_v also_o and_o the_o iron_n harrow_n which_o be_v the_o harrow_n with_o iron_n tooth_n be_v ever_o to_o be_v use_v upon_o bind_v ground_n such_o as_o through_o dryness_n grow_v so_o hard_o that_o they_o will_v not_o be_v sunder_v and_o through_o wet_a turn_n soon_o to_o mire_n and_o loose_a dirt_n now_o whereas_o there_o be_v mingle_v earth_n which_o neither_o willing_o yield_v to_o mould_n nor_o yet_o bind_v so_o sore_o but_o small_a industry_n break_v it_o of_o which_o earth_n i_o shall_v speak_v hereafter_o to_o such_o ground_n the_o best_a husband_n use_v a_o mixture_n that_o be_v to_o say_v one_o wooden_a harrow_n and_o one_o iron_n harrow_n that_o the_o wooden_a harrow_n turn_v over_o and_o loosen_a the_o

now_o to_o return_v to_o my_o former_a purpose_n touch_v the_o tillage_n of_o this_o red_a sand_n pulse_n if_o as_o before_o i_o say_v you_o find_v any_o part_n of_o your_o fallow-field_n too_o weak_a

of_o increase_v in_o this_o case_n it_o be_v best_o to_o lay_v your_o land_n flat_a and_o level_a without_o ridge_n or_o furrow_n as_o be_v do_v in_o many_o part_n of_o cambridge-shire_n some_o part_n

thereof_o be_v not_o above_o twenty_o inch_n in_o length_n and_o not_o above_o one_o inch_n and_o a_o half_a in_o thickness_n the_o main_a beam_n thereof_o be_v not_o above_o five_o foot_n long_o &_o

the_o especial_a care_n which_o be_v to_o be_v hold_v in_o the_o make_n of_o this_o plough_n be_v that_o it_o be_v wide_a and_o open_a in_o the_o hinder_a part_n that_o it_o may_v turn_v and_o lay_v

and_o other_o character_n i_o have_v show_v in_o a_o former_a chapter_n wherefore_o for_o his_o manner_n of_o plough_v observe_v my_o first_o method_n which_o be_v to_o begin_v with_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o year_n i_o mean_v at_o christmas_n it_o be_v thus_o if_o you_o find_v that_o any_o of_o this_o white_a or_o gray_a clay_n beanes_n lie_v wet_a have_v less_o mixture_n of_o stone_n or_o

have_v season_v it_o and_o then_o sow_v it_o according_o but_o if_o you_o have_v no_o such_o tough_a land_n but_o that_o it_o hold_v it_o own_o proper_a nature_n be_v so_o mix_v with_o small_a stone_n

and_o incline_v to_o dryness_n you_o shall_v begin_v to_o plough_v your_o pease-earth_n in_o this_o manner_n first_o you_o shall_v cause_v your_o séedes-man_n to_o sow_v the_o land_n with_o single_a
