and_o the_o reason_n i_o apprehend_v to_o be_v this_o not_o the_o ●iring_n of_o the_o sap_n in_o its_o go_n to_o the_o top_n branch_n for_o the_o sap_n be_v too_o vigorous_a and_o too_o plentiful_a

the_o cause_n why_o the_o low_a bough_n and_o side_n branch_n have_v usual_o more_o fruit_n than_o the_o top_n branch_n i_o conceive_v to_o be_v for_o that_o the_o sap_n natural_o press_v upward_o in_o great_a plenty_n and_o rune_v forth_o into_o shoot_n and_o branch_n now_o nature_n be_v so_o intent_n and_o vigorous_o active_a in_o one_o work_n viz._n the_o increase_n of_o the_o tree_n in_o those_o branch_n it_o do_v not_o put_v forth_o itself_o at_o the_o same_o time_n in_o that_o other_o effect_n of_o bear_v fruit_n upon_o the_o same_o branch_n but_o now_o as_o to_o the_o low_a bough_n and_o side_n branch_n there_o nature_n be_v at_o work_n but_o in_o a_o remiss_a and_o weak_a degree_n as_o to_o the_o increase_n of_o the_o branch_n such_o grow_v but_o little_a because_o the_o sap_n
