in_o the_o close_a &_o better_o they_o shall_v like_o for_o those_o beeste_n in_o the_o house_n have_v short_a here_o &_o thin_a and_o toward_o march_n they_o will_v pyll_v &_o be_v bare_a and_o therefore_o they_o may_v not_o abide_v in_o the_o field_n before_o the_o heerdman_n in_o winter_n time_n for_o cold_a and_o those_o that_o lie_v in_o a_o close_a under_o a_o hedge_n have_v long_o here_o &_o thick_a and_z they_o will_v never_o pyll_v nor_o be_v bare_a and_o by_o this_o reason_n the_o husband_n may_v keep_v twice_o so_o many_o cattle_n as_o he_o die_v before_o ¶_o this_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o this_o approument_n now_o every_o husband_n have_v six_o several_a close_v whereof_o three_o be_v for_o corn_n the_z fourthe_a for_o his_o lay_v the_z fyfte_a for_o his_o come_v

come_v and_z than_o he_o have_v his_o falowe_v field_n his_o ley_fw-fr field_n &_o his_o pasture_n field_n all_o summer_n and_o when_o he_o have_v mow_v his_o meadow_n than_o he_o have_v his_o meadow_n ground_n so_o that_o &_o he_o have_v any_o weyke_a cattle_n that_o will_v be_v amend_v or_z dyvers_a manner_n of_o cattle_n he_o may_v put_v they_o in_o any_o close_a he_o will_v the_o which_o be_v a_o great_a advantage_n &_o if_o all_o shall_v lie_v come_v than_o will_v the_o edysshe_n of_o the_o corn_n field_n &_o the_o aftermath_n of_o all_o the_o meadow_n be_v eat_v in_o ten_o or_o twelve_o day_n and_o the_o scotfree_a man_n that_o have_v moche_n cattle_n will_v have_v the_o advantage_n and_o the_o poor_a man_n can_v have_v no_o help_n nor_o relefe_v in_o winter_n when_o he_o have_v most_o need_n and_o if_o a_o acre_n of_o land_n be_v worth_a six_o pen_n or_o it_o be_v enclose_v it_o will_v be_v worth_a eight_o pen_n when_o it_o be_v enclose_v by_o reason_n of_o the_o
