nourishment_n which_o preserve_v and_o make_v they_o grow_v custom_n have_v fix_v the_o name_n of_o sap_n upon_o this_o nourishment_n and_o therefore_o we_o shall_v common_o call_v it_o so_o as_o often_o as_o we_o shall_v have_v occasion_n to_o speak_v of_o it_o chap._n iii_o reflection_n upon_o the_o nature_n of_o sap._n before_o i_o proceed_v to_o a_o close_a disquisition_n about_o the_o nature_n of_o sap_n which_o be_v the_o same_o in_o plant_n that_o chile_n or_o blood_n be_v in_o animal_n the_o water_n in_o the_o bowel_n of_o the_o earth_n be_v also_o the_o same_o to_o plant_n that_o food_n in_o the_o stomach_n be_v to_o animal_n it_o may_v be_v requisite_a to_o observe_v that_o as_o the_o earth_n serve_v to_o produce_v and_o nourish_v vegetable_n as_o have_v in_o it_o a_o virtue_n or_o principle_n of_o fertility_n necessary_a for_o such_o performance_n so_o it_o be_v also_o certain_a that_o of_o itself_o and_o unless_o it_o be_v due_o moisten_v it_o can_v perform_v those_o office_n just_o as_o sené_fw-fr which_o be_v of_o a_o purge_v nature_n do_v not_o operate_v of_o itself_o but_o by_o mean_n of_o a_o proportionate_a quantity_n of_o water_n or_o some_o other_o liquid_a wherein_o it_o be_v infuse_v and_o to_o which_o by_o that_o infusion_n it_o communicate_v its_o virtue_n but_o as_o this_o purge_v quality_n become_v altogether_o ineffectual_a if_o the_o proportion_n of_o water_n be_v too_o great_a for_o the_o quantity_n of_o the_o sené_fw-fr so_o also_o the_o earth_n become_v unfruitful_a and_o rot_v fruit-tree_n as_o well_o as_o most_o other_o plant_n if_o it_o happen_v to_o be_v drench_v or_o cover_v with_o water_n it_o require_v some_o but_o not_o too_o much_o moisture_n and_o too_o much_o wet_a be_v altogether_o as_o prejudicial_a as_o too_o much_o drought_n now_o wheresoever_o the_o earth_n be_v too_o dry_a it_o be_v necessary_o barren_a and_o therefore_o all_o the_o ground_n we_o common_o call_v good_a be_v attend_v with_o all_o sort_n of_o moisture_n which_o indeed_o be_v nothing_o else_o but_o real_a water_n diffuse_v through_o every_o part_n of_o the_o ground_n and_o this_o water_n come_v for_o the_o most_o part_n either_o from_o rain_n or_o snow_n or_o river_n or_o spring_n and_o sometime_o by_o artificial_a conveyance_n which_o water_n have_v by_o its_o weight_n sink_v into_o and_o diffuse_v itself_o through_o all_o part_n of_o the_o earth_n it_o become_v as_o philosopher_n speak_v impregnate_v with_o the_o nitre_n or_o fertile_a salt_n of_o that_o earth_n or_o to_o use_v the_o gard'ners_n term_n it_o become_v so_o far_o season_v with_o the_o quality_n of_o that_o earth_n as_o to_o assume_v its_o taste_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v which_o it_o communicate_v to_o those_o plant_n it_o nourish_v the_o truth_n of_o which_o observation_n be_v sufficient_o evince_v from_o experience_n in_o wine_n and_o several_a sort_n of_o fruit_n which_o receive_v different_a taste_n from_o the_o different_a soil_n they_o grow_v in_o one_o part_n of_o this_o impregnated_a moisture_n whether_o its_o tincture_n be_v perceivable_a by_o sense_n or_o not_o serve_v to_o make_v mineral_n and_o fountain_n and_o another_o part_n as_o we_o have_v just_a now_o say_v go_v to_o the_o production_n and_o nourishment_n of_o a_o thousand_o several_a sort_n of_o tree_n and_o plant_n and_o vegetable_n it_o be_v in_o every_o earth_n of_o such_o a_o substance_n as_o may_v serve_v for_o the_o use_n of_o all_o sort_n of_o tree_n and_o plant_n and_o be_v in_o effect_n nothing_o else_o but_o that_o water_n we_o be_v go_v to_o treat_v of_o though_o it_o immediate_o appear_v very_o different_a both_o in_o colour_n taste_v and_o consistency_n as_o soon_o as_o ever_o it_o have_v by_o the_o action_n of_o the_o root_n enter_v into_o the_o several_a plant_n and_o that_o it_o cease_v to_o be_v pure_a and_o simple_a water_n for_o whereas_o it_o be_v at_o first_o liquid_a before_o it_o enter_v the_o root_n it_o become_v in_o time_n and_o by_o degree_n in_o a_o manner_n perfect_o hard_a and_o as_o it_o be_v metamorphose_v into_o the_o nature_n either_o of_o fruit_n or_o leave_n of_o wood_n or_o bark_n or_o pith_n and_o there_o make_v a_o body_n more_o or_o less_o hard_a according_a as_o it_o happen_v to_o be_v dispose_v of_o into_o the_o several_a fruit_n tree_n or_o plant_n and_o hence_o perhaps_o it_o come_v that_o the_o simple_a dew_n which_o be_v sprinkle_v upon_o certain_a flower_n in_o garden_n and_o meadow_n become_v change_v part_n into_o honey_n part_n into_o wax_n and_o part_n into_o little_a thin_a coat_n as_o soon_o as_o the_o bee_n have_v with_o their_o usual_a industry_n collect_v and_o by_o the_o instinct_n and_o direction_n of_o nature_n wrought_v and_o separate_v it_o now_o this_o harden_v of_o the_o sap_n be_v not_o to_o be_v ascribe_v to_o any_o quality_n peculiar_a to_o itself_o since_o it_o be_v no_o more_o than_o what_o the_o skin_n in_o fruit_n and_o the_o bark_n in_o tree_n may_v be_v

a_o power_n of_o communicate_v their_o own_o density_n to_o the_o sap_n when_o their_o inward_a part_n come_v to_o be_v bathe_v and_o drench_v in_o it_o as_o for_o instance_n when_o the_o sap_n pass_v
