inhabitant_n that_o the_o bee_n do_v suck_v such_o plenty_n of_o honey_n out_o of_o it_o that_o in_o a_o fortnight_n time_n the_o say_a hive_n be_v all_o fill_v there_o with_o the_o say_a buck-wheat_n

three_o part_n of_o water_n to_o two_o of_o honey_n ferment_n it_o with_o a_o treble_a fermentation_n and_o after_o six_o month_n this_o will_v be_v far_o rich_a both_o in_o taste_n and_o smell_v than_o any_o wine_n that_o come_v from_o any_o of_o the_o spanish_a territory_n and_o that_o by_o far_o but_o as_o the_o price_n of_o good_a honey_n go_v now_o to_o have_v a_o quart_n of_o wine_n in_o
