we_o be_v a_o army_n of_o clown_n though_o not_o of_o soldier_n and_o our_o commander_n be_v our_o landlord_n who_o often_o deceive_v we_o of_o the_o increase_n of_o our_o labour_n as_o the_o war_a commander_n deceive_v their_o common_a soldier_n of_o the_o profit_n of_o their_o spoil_n also_o we_o have_v our_o infantry_n and_o our_o cavallry_n for_o all_o those_o that_o belong_v to_o the_o

all_o which_o we_o fight_v against_o not_o with_o force_n but_o with_o industry_n and_o our_o army_n of_o clown_n be_v more_o skilful_a to_o destroy_v our_o enemy_n than_o a_o army_n of_o soldier_n be_v to_o destroy_v their_o enemy_n nay_o our_o army_n be_v a_o army_n wherein_o be_v peace_n and_o plenty_n whereas_o in_o their_o army_n be_v warr_n and_o want_n we_o become_v rich_a with_o safety_n

gentleman_n a_o peasant_n or_o clown_n oration_n speak_v in_o the_o field_n of_o peace_n concern_v husbandry_n fellow_n peasant_n i_o must_v tell_v you_o we_o live_v in_o a_o happy_a age_n where_o peace_n sow_n and_o plenty_n reap_v for_o whereas_o war_n destroy_v our_o increase_n now_o peace_n increase_v our_o store_n also_o i_o will_v have_v you_o know_v that_o our_o profession_n which_o be_v husbandry_n be_v one_o of_o the_o noble_a and_o generous_a profession_n which_o be_v to_o employ_v ourselves_o like_a as_o the_o god_n and_o nature_n for_o though_o we_o can_v create_v creature_n as_o nature_n do_v yet_o we_o by_o our_o industry_n increase_v nature_n creature_n not_o only_o vegetable_n that_o we_o produce_v in_o our_o field_n and_o store_n in_o our_o barn_n but_o animal_n which_o we_o breed_v in_o our_o farm_n and_o feed_v in_o our_o field_n but_o as_o nature_n commit_v error_n and_o defect_n in_o produce_v her_o creature_n so_o we_o for_o want_n of_o knowledge_n have_v not_o the_o good_a effect_n of_o our_o labour_n for_o though_o we_o be_v breed_v up_o to_o husbandry_n yet_o we_o be_v not_o all_o so_o know_v in_o husbandry_n as_o to_o thrive_v and_o grow_v rich_a by_o our_o labour_n for_o as_o all_o scholar_n be_v not_o learned_a that_o have_v live_v and_o spend_v most_o of_o their_o time_n in_o study_n in_o university_n but_o be_v mere_a dunce_n or_o as_o artisan_n be_v not_o all_o excellent_a workman_n although_o they_o have_v be_v bind_v to_o their_o trade_n and_o have_v wrought_v long_o in_o it_o yet_o be_v but_o bungler_n so_o for_o husbandry_n all_o husbandman_n be_v not_o so_o know_v in_o their_o profession_n as_o to_o thrive_v but_o they_o labour_v at_o random_n without_o judgement_n or_o observation_n and_o like_o those_o that_o learn_v to_o read_v by_o rote_n may_v understand_v the_o word_n or_o letter_n but_o not_o the_o sense_n and_o mean_v so_o we_o may_v be_v bring_v up_o to_o labour_n but_o not_o understand_v to_o make_v a_o profitable_a increase_n not_o know_v the_o nature_n of_o the_o several_a soil_n as_o what_o for_o pasture_n or_o meadow_n or_o tillage_n nor_o to_o foresee_a the_o change_n of_o weather_n nor_o to_o take_v the_o most_o seasonable_a time_n nor_o to_o observe_v the_o course_n of_o the_o planet_n all_o which_o be_v very_o requisite_a for_o the_o breed_n of_o our_o animal_n and_o increase_v of_o our_o vegetable_n wherefore_o in_o my_o opinion_n it_o be_v very_o necessary_a for_o we_o to_o choose_v the_o most_o observe_v and_o experience_a man_n among_o we_o that_o understand_v husbandry_n best_o to_o be_v our_o public_a and_o general_a teacher_n instructer_n informer_n and_o reformer_n in_o our_o profession_n of_o husbandry_n for_o as_o there_o be_v divine_a teacher_n for_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n moral_a teacher_n for_o the_o manner_n of_o man_n human_a teacher_n for_o the_o body_n of_o man_n and_o physician_n for_o the_o life_n of_o man_n so_o there_o shall_v be_v natural_a teacher_n and_o informer_n for_o the_o profitable_a increase_n for_o man_n such_o as_o have_v not_o only_a experience_n by_o practice_n and_o judgement_n by_o observation_n but_o have_v both_o learning_n and_o conception_n of_o natural_a philosophy_n as_o to_o learn_v and_o search_v into_o the_o cause_n and_o effect_n of_o nature_n work_v and_o to_o know_v and_o observe_v the_o influence_n of_o the_o heaven_n on_o earth_n and_o on_o the_o diverse_a and_o sundry_a creature_n in_o and_o on_o the_o earth_n also_o the_o sympathy_n and_o antipathy_n of_o the_o several_a creature_n to_o each_o other_o as_o also_o the_o nature_n and_o propriety_n of_o every_o kind_a and_o sort_v of_o creature_n so_o shall_v we_o know_v how_o to_o increase_v our_o breed_n of_o animal_n and_o our_o store_n of_o vegetable_n and_o to_o find_v out_o the_o mineral_n for_o our_o use_n for_o as_o learn_v without_o practice_n be_v of_o no_o effect_n so_o practise_v without_o knowledge_n be_v of_o small_a profit_n yet_o many_o will_n take_v upon_o they_o to_o instruct_v other_o that_o want_v instruction_n themselves_o but_o such_o instructer_n instruction_n be_v more_o in_o word_n than_o for_o use_n as_o plutarch_n commonwealth_n or_o virgilius_n georgic_n two_o famous_a man_n the_o one_o a_o moral_a philosopher_n the_o other_o a_o poet_n the_o one_o do_v form_n such_o a_o commonwealth_n as_o man_n will_v nor_o can_v not_o live_v in_o it_o and_o so_o not_o fit_a for_o use_v the_o other_o can_v better_v set_v his_o wit_n to_o work_n than_o his_o hand_n for_o if_o virgil_n have_v leave_v his_o husbandary_n in_o verse_n to_o practise_v it_o in_o prose_n he_o have_v live_v poor_o and_o die_v obscure_o as_o have_v more_o wit_n and_o fancy_n to_o write_v of_o husbandry_n in_o his_o georgic_n than_o knowledge_n or_o experience_n to_o practise_v it_o in_o his_o farm_n thus_o poet_n get_v fame_n and_o farmer_n wealth_n the_o one_o by_o their_o wit_n the_o other_o by_o their_o experience_n the_o one_o by_o imagination_n the_o other_o by_o practice_n for_o a_o clown_n or_o peasant_n gain_v more_o knowledge_n by_o his_o practice_n than_o a_o poet_n by_o his_o contemplation_n but_o when_o practice_n and_o wit_n be_v join_v together_o they_o beget_v wisdom_n and_o wealth_n the_o one_o be_v adorn_v with_o gold_n the_o other_o enthrone_v with_o fame_n for_o emperor_n have_v
