at_o autumn_n fallow_a again_o but_o as_o in_o trench_v so_o in_o this_o work_n you_o shall_v mix_v with_o proper_a soil_n make_v use_n of_o the_o english_a fashion_n of_o spade_n which_o be_v now_o

of_o the_o spade_n and_o nimble_o break_v and_o chap_v all_o the_o clod_n thorough_o this_o be_v very_o material_a as_o well_o as_o the_o through_o mix_v of_o the_o manure_n with_o the_o soil_n so_o
