it_o be_v true_a that_o it_o be_v very_o good_a to_o prune_v at_o the_o end_n of_o february_n and_o at_o the_o beginning_n crescentius_n of_o march_n which_o be_v common_o time_n of_o decrease_v but_o it_o be_v likewise_o as_o true_a that_o without_o mind_v the_o moon_n one_o may_v begin_v to_o prune_v as_o soon_o as_o the_o leave_n of_o the_o tree_n be_v fall_v that_o be_v at_o the_o end_n of_o

the_o first_o which_o relate_v to_o the_o prune_v of_o weak_a tree_n be_v draw_v from_o the_o conduct_n of_o certain_a frugal_a miller_n who_o with_o a_o small_a quantity_n of_o water_n find_v the_o

how_o dangerous_a great_a stream_n of_o rise_a water_n be_v to_o their_o mill_n for_o a_o time_n suffer_v the_o abundance_n of_o water_n which_o may_v annoy_v they_o to_o flow_v gentle_o by_o and_o the_o violence_n of_o it_o be_v over_o they_o shut_v their_o sluice_n or_o water-gate_n and_o afterward_o employ_v the_o remainder_n of_o their_o water_n according_a as_o may_v be_v expedient_a for_o the_o number_n of_o wheel_n they_o be_v to_o ply_v for_o the_o understanding_n of_o these_o two_o comparison_n i_o say_v that_o the_o sap_n in_o every_o tree_n appear_v to_o i_o to_o be_v partly_o the_o same_o as_o water_n be_v in_o every_o river_n i_o will_v say_v in_o another_o place_n what_o water_n be_v in_o the_o pipe_n of_o spout_a fountain_n whether_o river_n be_v large_a or_o small_a it_o be_v still_o certain_a that_o they_o be_v beautiful_a provide_v that_o the_o channel_n of_o each_o whatever_o it_o may_v be_v be_v common_o furnish_v with_o a_o quantity_n of_o water_n

for_o the_o further_a proof_n of_o this_o opinion_n i_o have_v two_o argument_n to_o offer_v both_o which_o seem_v to_o i_o very_o strong_a and_o cogent_a the_o first_o be_v that_o as_o it_o be_v the_o sap_n which_o be_v for_o a_o time_n grow_v thick_a and_o as_o it_o be_v cold_a so_o strong_o glue_n and_o join_v the_o bark_n to_o the_o wood_n that_o they_o be_v not_o easy_o pull_v asunder_o so_o upon_o its_o be_v heat_v either_o by_o the_o sun_n in_o the_o spring_n or_o summer_n or_o by_o our_o common_a fire_n they_o become_v easy_o separable_a and_o this_o be_v easy_o concieveable_a to_o every_o one_o that_o consider_v that_o almost_o the_o very_a same_o thing_n be_v every_o day_n do_v in_o the_o use_n of_o common_a glue_n as_o to_o the_o second_o you_o need_v only_o take_v a_o view_n of_o the_o inside_n of_o the_o bark_n and_o the_o outside_n of_o the_o tree_n and_o you_o will_v perceive_v in_o both_o a_o infinite_a number_n of_o little_a gutter_n or_o channel_n which_o be_v separate_v from_o each_o other_o by_o as_o many_o little_a partition_n which_o serve_v to_o fasten_v the_o bark_n to_o the_o tree_n and_o to_o be_v passage_n for_o the_o sap_n to_o ascend_v up_o to_o the_o very_a top_n both_o to_o be_v a_o continual_a supply_n to_o all_o the_o several_a part_n of_o the_o tree_n and_o to_o add_v new_a growth_n to_o such_o part_n as_o be_v capable_a of_o enlargement_n observe_v all_o those_o little_a channel_n which_o in_o every_o part_n of_o the_o wood_n appear_v crosswise_o from_o the_o pith_n to_o the_o bark_n like_v so_o many_o straight_a line_n draw_v from_o the_o centre_n of_o a_o circle_n to_o its_o circumference_n or_o the_o sun_n as_o painter_n use_v to_o draw_v it_o and_o which_o be_v plain_o see_v in_o cut_v a_o turnip_n through_o

conclude_v that_o these_o be_v the_o real_a passage_n by_o which_o the_o sap_n which_o as_o i_o have_v already_o prove_v be_v lodge_v and_o perform_v most_o of_o its_o action_n between_o the_o wood_n and_o the_o bark_n be_v convey_v into_o the_o body_n of_o the_o tree_n to_o refresh_v and_o feed_v all_o the_o inward_a part_n of_o it_o since_o i_o can_v positive_o determine_v for_o what_o other_o use_v nature_n shall_v have_v intend_v those_o little_a channel_n which_o be_v
introduction_n of_o small_a particle_n of_o earth_n how_o come_v it_o to_o pass_v that_o those_o particle_n which_o in_o all_o thing_n else_o appear_v plain_o to_o go_v upward_o enter_v into_o the_o

pore_n be_v form_v in_o the_o root_n and_o the_o introduce_v particle_n come_v in_o only_a through_o those_o new_a pore_n or_o whether_o they_o still_o continue_v to_o come_v in_o only_a through_o those_o of_o the_o seed_n through_o which_o they_o first_o enter_v in_o to_o make_v their_o root_n i_o will_v also_o further_o know_v whether_o one_o sort_n of_o wood_n be_v more_o porous_a than_o another_o i_o own_o that_o some_o have_v large_a pore_n than_o other_o as_o the_o liege_n for_o example_n than_o the_o ebon_n but_o i_o can_v conceive_v how_o one_o shall_v have_v more_o than_o another_o since_o all_o be_v make_v up_o of_o little_a part_n which_o come_v together_o successive_o one_o after_o another_o now_o if_o all_o root_n be_v equal_o porous_a how_o come_v it_o that_o some_o act_n more_o vigorous_o than_o other_o the_o vine_n for_o instance_n and_o the_o figtree_n make_v abundant_o more_o root_n than_o any_o other_o tree_n be_v it_o not_o reasonable_a to_o

a_o little_a our_o artichoke_n which_o will_v be_v pernicious_a in_o wet_a ground_n because_o it_o will_v rot_v the_o artichoke_n plant_n it_o be_v convenient_a to_o let_v the_o artichoke_n alone_o

in_o case_n the_o frost_n return_v at_o the_o very_a beginning_n of_o the_o month_n before_o the_o frost_n be_v come_v we_o make_v a_o end_n of_o tie_v up_o our_o endive_n that_o be_v big_a enough_o
