this_o deficiency_n may_v easy_o be_v remedy_v according_a to_o my_o judgement_n 1._o to_o compel_v by_o a_o law_n that_o all_o farmer_n who_o plough_n and_o sow_v 50_o or_o 100_o acre_n of_o land_n shall_v sow_v half_o a_o acre_n or_o a_o acre_n of_o hemp_n or_o flax._n or_o to_o pay_v 5_o s._n or_o 10_o s._n to_o the_o poor_a of_o the_o parish_n where_o they_o live_v or_o some_o law_n to_o this_o purpose_n for_o there_o be_v no_o man_n but_o have_v land_n fit_a for_o one_o of_o these_o hemp_n desire_v a_o stiff_a deep_a rich_a land_n flax_n that_o which_o be_v light_n for_o there_o be_v so_o much_o irrationality_n in_o some_o profession_n that_o they_o must_v be_v force_v even_o like_o bruit_n to_o understand_v their_o own_o good·_v in_o king_n edward_n the_o six_o day_n something_o be_v enact_v to_o this_o purpose_n as_o i_o be_o inform_v in_o henry_n the_o eight_o day_n there_o be_v a_o law_n enact_v that_o every_o man_n shall_v sow_v his_o land_n and_o that_o no_o man_n shall_v enclose_v his_o land_n lest_o he_o shall_v turn_v it_o to_o pasture_n for_o we_o have_v have_v great_a dearth_n in_o england_n through_o the_o neglect_n of_o tillage_n which_o law_n even_o as_o yet_o stand_v in_o force_n yet_o there_o be_v not_o nor_o need_v there_o be_v any_o force_n to_o compel_v man_n to_o till_o and_o sow_v their_o land_n for_o they_o have_v at_o length_n find_v the_o sweetness_n and_o willing_o go_v about_o it_o for_o their_o own_o profit_n sake_n and_o now_o we_o suppose_v and_o not_o without_o cause_n that_o enclose_v be_v a_o improvement_n and_o so_o concern_v hemp_n and_o flax_n i_o say_v if_o they_o be_v once_o accustom_v to_o sow_v they_o they_o will_v never_o leave_v it_o as_o i_o see_v farmer_n do_v in_o east-kent_n scarce_o a_o man_n but_o he_o will_v have_v a_o considerable_a plot_n of_o ground_n for_o hemp_n and_o about_o london_n far_o great_a quantity_n of_o flax_n be_v sow_v then_o former_o 2._o it_o be_v convenient_a that_o every_o parish_n through_o the_o nation_n shall_v have_v a_o stock_n to_o set_v their_o poor_a to_o work_v that_o the_o young_a child_n and_o woman_n may_v not_o run_v up_o and_o down_o idle_a and_o beg_v or_o steal_v as_o they_o do_v in_o the_o country_n of_o apple_n pease_n wood_n hedges_n and_o so_o by_o little_a and_o little_a be_v train_v up_o for_o the_o gallow_n 3._o that_o a_o severe_a law_n shall_v be_v enact_v against_o those_o who_o run_v up_o and_o down_o and_o will_v not_o work_v for_o if_o all_o know_v that_o they_o may_v have_v work_n at_o home_n and_o earn_v more_o within_o door_n honest_o then_o by_o run_v rogue_v up_o and_o down_o why_o shall_v they_o not_o compel_v they_o to_o it_o and_o though_o some_o may_v think_v the_o parish_n will_v lose_v much_o by_o this_o way_n because_o that_o the_o stock_n wrought_v will_v not_o be_v put_v off_o but_o with_o loss_n as_o perhaps_o 10_o l._n will_v be_v bring_v to_o 8_o l._n yet_o let_v they_o consider_v how_o much_o they_o shall_v save_v at_o their_o door_n how_o many_o inconvenience_n they_o be_v free_v from_o their_o hedge_n in_o the_o country_n shall_v not_o be_v pull_v their_o fruit_n steal_v nor_o their_o corn_n purloin_v and_o further_o that_o the_o poor_a will_v be_v train_v up_o to_o work_v and_o therefore_o fit_a for_o any_o service_n yea_o and_o in_o their_o youth_n learn_v a_o call_n by_o the_o which_o they_o may_v get_v a_o honest_a livelihood_n and_o i_o dare_v say_v their_o assessment_n for_o the_o poor_a will_v not_o be_v so_o frequent_a nor_o the_o poor_a so_o numerous_a and_o the_o benefit_n which_o redound_v to_o the_o nation_n will_v be_v very_o great_a 4._o the_o charitable_a deed_n of_o our_o forefather_n aught_o to_o be_v inquire_v after_o that_o they_o be_v not_o

not_o work_v take_v saint_n paul_n rule_n who_o best_o know_v what_o be_v best_a for_o they_o i_o dare_v not_o advise_v to_o take_v it_o in_o part_n of_o commons_o fen_n etc._n etc._n and_o to_o improve_v they_o for_o this_o use_n lest_o i_o shall_v too_o much_o provoke_v the_o rude_a merciless_a multitude_n but_o to_o return_v to_o my_o discourse_n i_o say_v that_o sow_v hemp_n and_o flax_n will_v be_v very_o beneficial_a 1._o to_o the_o owner_n of_o land_n for_o man_n usual_o give_v in_o divers_a place_n 3_o l._n per_fw-la acre_n to_o sow_v hemp_n and_o flax_n as_o i_o have_v see_v at_o maidstone_n in_o kent_n which_o be_v the_o only_a place_n i_o know_v in_o england_n where_o thread_n be_v make_v and_o though_o nigh_o a_o hundred_o band_n be_v employ_v about_o it_o yet_o they_o make_v not_o enough_o for_o this_o nation_n and_o yet_o get_v good_a profit_n how_o advantageous_a will_v this_o be_v to_o those_o who_o have_v drain_v the_o fen_n where_o questionless_a hemp_n will_v flourish_v and_o exsiccate_a the_o ground_n for_o hemp_n desire_v stiff_o moist_a land_n as_o flax_n light_n and_o dry_a and_o likewise_o to_o those_o in_o the_o north_n of_o england_n where_o land_n be_v very_o cheap_a i_o hope_v in_o a_o little_a time_n ireland_n will_v furnish_v we_o with_o these_o commodity_n if_o we_o be_v idle_a for_o there_o land_n be_v very_o cheap_a and_o those_o

and_o sheep_n dung_n to_o be_v a_o kind_n of_o antidote_n against_o it_o as_o also_o pigeons-dung_n because_o as_o i_o conceive_v these_o 2_o last_o sort_n abound_v much_o in_o niter_n which_o

these_o honey_n or_o mildew_n for_o they_o gather_v very_o little_a in_o comparison_n of_o that_o which_o fall_v 1._o the_o best_a way_n be_v to_o cut_v down_o the_o tree_n about_o your_o ground_n

they_o usual_o sow_v before_o michaelmas_n 3._o some_o use_n and_o with_o good_a profit_n to_o draw_v a_o line_n over_o their_o corn_n and_o to_o strike_v off_o the_o mildew_n before_o it_o be_v

of_o a_o kind_n of_o beard_a wheat_n be_v a_o excellent_a remedy_n for_o the_o beard_n shoot_v off_o the_o dew_n that_o it_o do_v not_o so_o easy_o insinuate_v itself_o into_o the_o ear_n and_o

whether_o it_o have_v any_o property_n against_o mildew_n this_o i_o be_o very_o confident_a of_o that_o if_o this_o wheat_n or_o any_o other_o be_v without_o the_o chaffy_a husk_n expose_v bare_a to_o the_o air_n as_o barley_n and_o rye_n be_v wheat_n will_v not_o be_v afflict_v with_o mildew_n perhaps_o such_o grain_n may_v be_v find_v by_o diligent_a enquiry_n i_o have_v casual_o pick_v

in_o england_n that_o we_o have_v not_o more_o orchard_n plant_v it_o be_v true_a that_o in_o kent_n and_o about_o london_n and_o also_o in_o glocestershire_n hereford_n and_o worcester_z there_o be_v many_o gallant_a orchard_n but_o in_o other_o country_n they_o be_v very_o rare_a and_o thin_a but_o if_o there_o be_v as_o many_o more_o even_o in_o any_o country_n they_o will_v be_v very_o

it_o by_o so_o many_o that_o i_o believe_v it_o to_o be_v true_a namely_o that_o a_o orchard_n of_o 30_o acre_n of_o cherry_n produce_v in_o one_o year_n above_o 1000_o pound_n but_o now_o the_o tree_n be_v almost_o all_o dead_a it_o be_v one_o of_o the_o first_o orchard_n plant_v in_o kent_n mr._n cambden_n report_v that_o king_n henry_n the_o eighth_n gardener_n first_o begin_v to_o plant_v
