these_o be_v easy_a cheap_a familiar_a way_n and_o make_v most_o excellent_a drink_v if_o your_o fruit_n be_v of_o your_o own_o growth_n it_o will_v then_o stand_v you_o but_o in_o a_o small_a matter_n very_o little_o more_o than_o ordinary_a beer_n and_o be_v much_o strong_a this_o sort_n of_o drink_v every_o poor_a man_n may_v have_v and_o indeed_o it_o be_v a_o better_a and_o more_o

and_o by_o this_o way_n of_o operation_n it_o mild_o and_o sweet_o draw_v forth_o all_o the_o good_a virtue_n of_o the_o fruit_n without_o force_n and_o violence_n and_o leave_v the_o harsh_a bitter_a
