dung_v take_v heed_n of_o steep_v pease_n too_o long_o for_o i_o have_v see_v they_o sprout_v in_o three_o or_o four_o hour_n 23_o be_v the_o sow_v of_o course_n and_o cheap_a grain_n and_o when_o

which_o when_o the_o cattle_n have_v eat_v a_o little_a of_o the_o top_n they_o turn_v they_o in_o with_o very_o good_a improvement_n for_o their_o ground_n meadow_n i_o will_v not_o deny_v but_o that_o we_o have_v good_a husband_n who_o dung_n and_o marl_n their_o meadow_n and_o pasture-land_n and_o throw_v down_o all_o mole_n and_o ant-hil_n and_o with_o the_o their_o spud-staffe_n cut_v up_o all_o thistle_n and_o weed_n and_o that_o they_o likewise_o straw_n ash_n on_o their_o ground_n to_o kill_v the_o moss_n and_o salt_n for_o the_o worm_n and_o they_o do_v very_o well_o but_o yet_o there_o be_v many_o who_o be_v negligent_a in_o these_o particular_n for_o the_o which_o they_o be_v blame-worthy_a but_o the_o deficiency_n of_o which_o i_o intend_v to_o speak_v of_o be_v these_o follow_v cato_n one_o of_o the_o wise_a of_o the_o roman_n sai_z that_o pratum_fw-la est_fw-la quasi_fw-la paratum_fw-la always_o ready_a and_o prepare_v and_o prefer_v meadow_n before_o the_o olive-garden_n although_o the_o spaniard_n bequeath_v olive-tree_n to_o their_o child_n as_o we_o do_v cottage_n or_o vine_n or_o corn_n because_o meadow_n bring_v in_o a_o certain_a profit_n without_o labour_n and_o pain_n but_o the_o other_o require_v much_o cost_n and_o pain_n and_o be_v subject_a to_o frost_n mildew_n haile_o locust_n to_o the_o which_o for_o the_o honour_n of_o

clovergrasse_n saint_n foin_n lucerne_n 2_o that_o we_o do_v not_o float_v our_o land_n as_o they_o do_v in_o lombary_n where_o they_o mow_v their_o land_n three_o or_o four_o time_n yearly_a which_o

read_v mr._n blithe_n book_n of_o husbandry_n late_o print_v 3_o that_o when_o we_o lie_v down_o land_n for_o meadow_n or_o pasture_n we_o do_v not_o sow_v they_o with_o the_o seed_n of_o fine_a

forth_o weed_n and_o trumpery_n and_o perhaps_o a_o kind_n of_o sour_a grass_n little_a worth_n if_o it_o be_v poor_a you_o shall_v have_v thistle_n may-weed_n and_o little_a or_o no_o grass_n for_o a_o year_n or_o two_o i_o know_v a_o gentleman_n who_o at_o my_o entreaty_n sow_v with_o his_o oat_n the_o bottom_n of_o his_o haymowe_a and_o though_o his_o land_n be_v wear_v out_o of_o heart_n and_o natural_o poor_a yet_o he_o have_v that_o year_n not_o only_o a_o crop_n of_o oat_n but_o he_o may_v if_o it_o have_v please_v he_o have_v mow_v his_o grass_n also_o but_o he_o spare_v it_o which_o be_v well_o do_v till_o the_o next_o year_n that_o it_o may_v make_v a_o turf_n and_o grow_v strong_a by_o this_o husbandry_n land_n may_v be_v well_o improve_v especial_o if_o man_n do_v consider_v the_o diversity_n of_o grass_n which_o be_v 90_o sort_n and_o 23_o of_o trefoil_n i_o know_v a_o place_n in_o kent_n which_o be_v a_o white_a chalky_a down_o which_o ground_n be_v sometime_o sow_v with_o corn_n a_o year_n or_o two_o and_o then_o it_o rest_v as_o long_o or_o long_o when_o it_o be_v lay_v down_o it_o maintain_v many_o great_a sheep_n and_o very_o lusty_a so_o that_o they_o be_v even_o fit_a for_o the_o butcher_n and_o yet_o there_o do_v scarce_o appear_v any_o thing_n that_o they_o can_v eat_v which_o have_v cause_v divers_a to_o wonder_v as_o if_o they_o have_v live_v on_o chalke-stone_n but_o i_o more_o serious_o consider_v the_o matter_n thorough_o view_v the_o ground_n and_o perceive_v that_o the_o ground_n natural_o produce_v a_o small_a trefoil_n which_o it_o seem_v be_v very_o sweet_a and_o pleasant_a it_o be_v common_o call_v trifolium_fw-la luteum_fw-la or_o lupilinum_n that_o be_v yellow_a or_o hop-trefoile_n and_o i_o be_o persuade_v if_o that_o the_o seed_n of_o this_o trefoil_n be_v preserve_v and_o sow_v with_o date_n when_o they_o intend_v to_o lay_v it_o down_o it_o will_v very_o much_o advance_v the_o pasture_n of_o that_o place_n therefore_o i_o desire_v all_o ingenious_a man_n serious_o to_o consider_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o trefoil_n which_o be_v the_o sweet_a of_o grass_n and_o to_o observe_v on_o what_o ground_n they_o natural_o grow_v and_o aso_n the_o nature_n of_o other_o grass_n which_o as_o i_o have_v say_v before_o be_v no_o less_o than_o 90_o sort_n natural_o grow_v in_o this_o isle_n some_o on_o

diligent_a in_o cherish_v of_o it_o and_o why_o may_v not_o the_o same_o propriety_n be_v in_o grass_n for_o we_o see_v diverse_a benty_n grass_n to_o thrive_v especial_o on_o barren_a place_n where_o scarce_o any_o thing_n else_o will_v grow_v i_o must_v again_o and_o again_o desire_v all_o man_n to_o take_v notice_n of_o the_o wonderful_a grass_n which_o grow_v near_o salisbury_n and_o desire_v
