the_o bitter_a sharp_a crabb_n be_v much_o better_a than_o a_o bitter_a sweet-apple_n because_o the_o juice_n of_o the_o first_o will_v afford_v twice_o as_o much_o spirit_n as_o the_o latter_a nor_o

your_o cider_n be_v rack_v off_o the_o lee_n once_o twice_o or_o three_o time_n as_o you_o find_v occasion_n and_o be_v indifferent_a fine_n then_o put_v in_o your_o spirit_n either_o with_o or_o
