bring_v forth_o their_o fruit_n in_o different_a season_n some_o soon_o and_o some_o late_a there_o be_v the_o first_o ripe_a fruit_n and_o there_o be_v the_o latter_a fruit_n some_o tree_n have_v their_o fruit_n ripe_a and_o ready_a with_o the_o spring_n other_o not_o till_o august_n other_o not_o till_o winter_n there_o be_v the_o summer-fruit_n and_o there_o be_v the_o winter-fruit_n one_o tree_n go_v before_o and_o have_v her_o fruit_n ripe_a one_o month_n another_o have_v its_o fruit_n the_o next_o month_n another_o follow_v and_o have_v its_o fruit_n the_o next_o month_n after_o that_o and_o this_o be_v the_o master_n wisdom_n that_o he_o may_v have_v new_a fruit_n every_o month_n to_o serve_v his_o table_n and_o please_v his_o palate_n so_o do_v god_n object_n 3._o but_o i_o
