into_o it_o and_o rest_v content_v therewith_o and_o abide_v therein_o it_o be_v to_o be_v know_v when_o this_o young_a host_n will_v come_v abroad_o by_o the_o noise_n and_o hum_v which_o they_o will_v make_v in_o the_o hive_n three_o day_n before_o that_o they_o purpose_v to_o come_v abroad_o as_o if_o a_o camp_n of_o warlike_a man_n will_v rise_v up_o and_o remove_v and_o to_o know_v when_o they_o make_v this_o noise_n he_o must_v lay_v his_o ear_n at_o evening_n to_o every_o hive_n that_o so_o he_o may_v hear_v the_o noise_n and_o hum_v when_o they_o make_v any_o and_o yet_o indeed_o this_o noise_n and_o hum_n be_v sometime_o a_o sign_n and_o token_n of_o some_o fight_n or_o strife_n raise_v betwixt_o they_o as_o where_o there_o be_v more_o king_n than_o one_o which_o must_v be_v well_o prevent_v otherwise_o by_o such_o civil_a war_n and_o deadly_a fight_n all_o the_o whole_a troop_n and_o company_n will_v quick_o be_v overthrow_v and_o bring_v to_o nothing_o but_o this_o

kill_v the_o king_n of_o the_o bee_n which_o be_v the_o cause_n of_o such_o sedition_n and_o tumult_n these_o poor_a creature_n be_v so_o enrage_v with_o love_n towards_o their_o king_n that_o for_o to_o defend_v he_o they_o willing_o cast_v and_o expose_v their_o own_o life_n into_o open_a hazard_n against_o all_o his_o enemy_n which_o come_v to_o assail_v he_o beside_o other_o incredible_a

into_o that_o hive_n kill_v the_o young_a king_n that_o so_o his_o subject_n may_v content_v themselves_o to_o live_v peaceable_o under_o the_o old_a but_o if_o you_o have_v not_o a_o swarm_n than_o the_o next_o way_n be_v to_o put_v the_o troop_n of_o two_o or_o three_o such_o diminish_v stock_n into_o one_o bedew_v or_o sprinkle_v the_o same_o before_o with_o some_o sweet_a liquor_n and_o after_o to_o shut_v they_o up_o in_o the_o same_o hive_n and_o set_v something_o within_o it_o for_o they_o to_o eat_v until_o they_o be_v well_o wont_a unto_o it_o and_o so_o to_o keep_v they_o three_o day_n close_v up_o give_v they_o a_o little_a fresh_a air_n at_o some_o small_a and_o little_a hole_n if_o rainy_n weather_n continue_v long_o that_o the_o bee_n can_v go_v out_o of_o their_o

as_o they_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o fly_v abroad_o to_o get_v their_o own_o live_n and_o to_o work_v their_o honey_n comb_v off_o for_o otherwise_o you_o shall_v quick_o make_v a_o end_n of_o they_o as_o it_o oftentimes_o come_v to_o pass_v all_o the_o summer_n they_o must_v gather_v honey_n whereof_o we_o will_v speak_v hereafter_o and_o at_o the_o same_o time_n every_o ten_o day_n their_o

take_v out_o of_o they_o if_o any_o be_v therein_o in_o some_o fair_a day_n about_o the_o end_n of_o autumn_n you_o must_v make_v clean_a their_o hive_n but_o see_v that_o it_o be_v hot_a and_o calm_a

without_o whatsoever_o cleft_n and_o hole_n you_o find_v with_o mortar_n and_o neats-dung_n mix_v together_o so_o that_o you_o leave_v none_o open_a but_o only_o a_o way_n for_o they_o to_o pass_v

of_o a_o hard_a winter_n to_o make_v provision_n of_o juice_n of_o sweet_a balm_n honied-water_n sugered-water_n milk_n or_o other_o liquor_n which_o may_v be_v convenient_a for_o they_o in_o which_o

for_o they_o then_o present_o to_o carry_v they_o far_o off_o they_o be_v trouble_v with_o the_o flux_n of_o the_o belly_n in_o the_o begin_n of_o the_o spring_n when_o the_o spourge_n be_v in_o the_o

for_o this_o cause_n you_o must_v quick_o help_v this_o flux_n of_o the_o belly_n with_o the_o rind_n or_o seed_n of_o pomgrannet_n dry_v pound_v and_o serce_v and_o afterward_o mix_v with_o honey_n
