me affaires of their estate, being
tyred with the hearing and iudging of litigious Controuersies? choked
(as it were) with the close ayres of their sumptuous buildings, their
stomacks cloyed with variety of Banquets, their eares filled and
ouerburthened with tedious discoursings? whither? but into their
Orchards? made and prepared, dressed and destinated for that purpose, to
renue and refresh their sences, and to call home their ouer-wearied
spirits. Nay, it is (no doubt) a comfort to them, to set open their
Cazements into a most delicate Garden and Orchard, whereby they may not
onely see that, wherein they are so much delighted, but also to giue
fresh, sweet, and pleasant ayre to their Galleries and Chambers.

{SN: All delight in Orchards.}
And looke, what these men do by reason of their greatnes and ability,
prouoked with delight, the same doubtlesse would euery of vs doe, if
power were answerable to our desires, whereby we shew manifestly, that
of all other delights on earth, they that are taken by Orchards, are
most excellent, and most agreeing with nature.

{SN: This delights all the senses.}
For whereas euery other pleasure commonly filles some one of our senses,
and that onely, with delight, this makes all our sences swimme in
pleasure, and that with infinite variety, ioyned with no lesse
commodity.

{SN: Delighteth old age.}
That famous _Philosopher_, and matchlesse Orator, _M.T.C._ prescribeth
nothing more fit, to take away the tediousnesse and heauy load of three
or foure score yeeres, then the pleasure of an Orchard.

{SN: Causes of delight in an Orchard.}
What can your eye desire to see, your eares to hear, your mouth to tast,
or your nose to smell, that is not to be had in an Orchard, with
abundance and variety? What more delightsome then an infinite variety of
sweet smelling flowers? decking with sundry colours, the greene mantle
of the Earth, the vniuersall Mother of vs all, so by them bespotted, so
dyed, that all the world cannot sample them, and wherein it is more fit
to admire the Dyer, then imitate his workemanship. Colouring not onely
the earth, but decking the ayre, and sweetning euery breath and spirit.

{SN: Flowers.}

sweet muske Rose double and single, the double and single white Rose.
