A45751	A discoverie for division or setting out of land, as to the best form published by Samuel Hartlib esquire, for direction and more advantage and profit of the adventurers and planters in the fens and other waste and undisposed places in England and Ireland ; whereunto are added some other choice secrets of experiments of husbandry ; with a philosophical quere concerning the cause of fruitfulness, and an essay to shew how all lands may be improved in a new way to become the ground of the increase of trading and revenue to this common-wealth.

to_o destroy_v all_o their_o labour_n and_o charge_n in_o a_o instant_n therefore_o say_v they_o not_o very_o wise_o nor_o industrious_o though_o it_o be_v better_o sit_v still_o then_o rise_v up_o

in_o champion_n country_n the_o pasture_n lie_v near_o home_o and_o the_o wood_n mead_n and_o corn-land_n lie_v at_o a_o great_a distance_n and_o something_o like_o it_o in_o enclose_a ground_n also_o and_o that_o it_o be_v common_a to_o go_v through_o one_o close_a into_o another_o whereas_o it_o be_v plain_a that_o the_o corn_n or_o grass_n in_o the_o first_o close_n be_v liable_a to_o be_v eat_v and_o tread_v down_o by_o the_o cattle_n that_o pass_v to_o and_o again_o to_o the_o close_a beyond_o it_o it_o be_v also_o very_o plain_a that_o all_o cattle_n that_o be_v well_o lusty_a and_o not_o of_o immediate_a use_n be_v able_a to_o carry_v themselves_o to_o a_o great_a distance_n but_o that_o wood_n corn_n hey_o or_o the_o like_a require_v much_o time_n charge_n and_o pain_n to_o remove_v they_o i_o appeal_v therefore_o whether_o it_o be_v not_o fit_a to_o send_v such_o cattle_n further_o off_o and_o have_v your_o corn_n and_o hey_n and_o wood_n too_o if_o need_v be_v near_o home_v

so_o well_o that_o till_o i_o see_v some_o better_a i_o rest_v content_v with_o this_o i_o have_v observe_v that_o when_o the_o foul_a or_o home-sted_n be_v too_o near_o the_o dwell_a house_n as_o it_o be_v in_o most_o place_n it_o make_v the_o inhabitant_n liable_a to_o many_o inconvenience_n and_o offensive_a sight_n and_o smell_n as_o well_o within_o door_n as_o without_o but_o here_o i_o
