Reading edition
"Barley is now very rarely, if at all, sown on lay land. The fallow he speaks of I take to be the second ploughing for Barley."—T.R. 1710. Gervase Markham, in his English Husbandman, directs a digging in May, another, with manuring, in October, and "the last time of your digging and setting shall be at the beginning of April."
