to_o cleave_v insunder_o but_o beside_o every_o novice_n in_o husbandry_n do_v know_v that_o this_o kind_n of_o liquidness_n though_o it_o can_v insinuate_v yet_o be_v it_o not_o so_o quick_a at_o it_o there_o be_v many_o seed_n as_o haw_n and_o hollibery_n and_o other_o who_o shell_n be_v not_o near_o so_o thick_a and_o hard_o as_o be_v the_o skull_n of_o beast_n and_o yet_o be_v it_o almost_o a_o two_o year_n time_n before_o this_o liquidness_n can_v thorough_o act_v upon_o they_o and_o yet_o shall_v we_o be_v so_o thick_o skin_v as_o to_o imagine_v as_o if_o this_o sluggish_a labourer_n
