concern_v fish_n and_o frvite_n first_o it_o be_v requisite_a to_o speak_v of_o pond_n i_o mean_v such_o as_o be_v necessary_a profitable_a and_o convenient_a to_o be_v use_v with_o we_o here_o in_o england_n not_o such_o in_o which_o the_o prodigal_a roman_n use_v to_o spend_v their_o superfluous_a wealth_n and_o treasure_n rather_o for_o vain_a ostentation_n then_o for_o any_o honest_a

it_o shall_v seem_v that_o many_o of_o the_o roman_n employ_v incredible_a wealth_n in_o make_v of_o pond_n in_o which_o with_o sea_n water_n they_o keep_v diverse_a kind_n of_o sea_n fish_n for_o delicacy_n and_o wantonness_n rather_o than_o profit_v for_o that_o such_o kind_n of_o pond_n be_v only_o make_v near_o unto_o the_o sea_n side_n whereas_o the_o like_a fish_n may_v more_o convenient_o be_v take_v in_o the_o sea_n itself_o i_o will_v rather_o wish_v the_o great_a store_n of_o our_o pond_n to_o be_v make_v far_o up_o land_n in_o the_o inmost_a part_n of_o the_o realm_n unto_o which_o place_n fish_n can_v well_o be_v bring_v from_o the_o sea_n to_o be_v eat_v fresh_a while_o it_o be_v good_a and_o sweet_a the_o pond_n i_o mean_v to_o speak_v of_o shall_v be_v of_o two_o sort_n the_o one_o dig_v right_o down_o into_o the_o ground_n by_o labour_n of_o man_n the_o other_o make_v with_o a_o head_n in_o a_o valley_n between_o two_o hill_n by_o swell_v of_o the_o water_n over_o grassy_a ground_n not_o in_o former_a time_n cover_v with_o water_n those_o that_o be_v dig_v right_o down_o be_v for_o the_o most_o part_n but_o small_a and_o serve_v indeed_o to_o little_a use_n unless_o it_o be_v to_o keep_v fish_n in_o for_o the_o winter_n time_n to_o spend_v as_o need_n require_v or_o to_o feed_v fish_n in_o otherwise_o of_o themselves_o they_o be_v not_o able_a to_o sustain_v any_o number_n of_o fish_n in_o any_o good_a sort_n to_o increase_v in_o growth_n or_o goodness_n of_o meat_n and_o therefore_o i_o mean_v not_o to_o speak_v much_o of_o such_o pond_n but_o the_o other_o kind_n of_o pond_n make_v with_o a_o head_n be_v right_o order_v as_o hereafter_o be_v mention_v will_v give_v great_a nourishment_n to_o fish_n without_o any_o feed_n save_o of_o itself_o it_o be_v therefore_o requisite_a for_o he_o that_o will_v have_v good_a fish_n to_o have_v two_o such_o pond_n with_o head_n so_o make_v as_o with_o their_o sluice_n he_o may_v lay_v they_o dry_v when_o he_o please_v and_o again_o to_o fill_v they_o with_o water_n when_o he_o shall_v think_v good_a to_o the_o end_n that_o one_o of_o they_o may_v lie_v dry_a one_o year_n &_o the_o other_o the_o next_o year_n the_o greatness_n of_o his_o pond_n may_v be_v according_a to_o the_o aptness_n of_o the_o place_n where_o he_o make_v they_o and_o to_o the_o cost_n he_o mean_v to_o bestow_v and_o that_o valley_n that_o have_v not_o any_o sudden_a descent_n but_o descend_v by_o little_a &_o little_a have_v also_o some_o little_a rill_n or_o brook_n run_v through_o it_o be_v fit_a for_o this_o purpose_n by_o reason_n that_o in_o such_o place_n a_o man_n shall_v with_o least_o charge_n in_o make_v the_o head_n overflow_v great_a quantity_n of_o ground_n the_o say_v pond_n be_v to_o be_v make_v as_o follow_v the_o make_n of_o a_o pond_n for_o fish_n have_v a_o place_n convenient_a viz._n a_o valley_n between_o two_o hill_n and_o some_o small_a brook_n or_o rill_n run_v
