and another from the middle of that downward, and then 
the fhape of thole Cuts on the bark will be of the A J" 1 * fa- 
flnon of a Roman Tjthen with the flat end of your JL haft 
raile the bark on each fide, beginning at the top lo widens 
that your bud may lie flat or plain 5 put it in and tie it pret¬ 
ty clofe andtite as was formerly faid 3 this way I ufed divers 
years with liiccefs. 
Another form of budding is this, having your branch and 
buds ready as in the former ways,cut the bark with an over¬ 
thwart cut quite round both above and below your bud you 
would take off,then cut the bark on each fide your bud with 
a down right cut from the upper-thwart cut to the lower, 
then pull off the back part of the bark behind your bud,and 
lay it on a clear place on your flock, where you would have 
your bud grow, and then with your knife cut the bark off 
your flock with two over-thwart cuts,juft of the lame length 
with your piece of bark, and then give another cut on the 
laark of your flock down right from the upper over¬ 
thwart cut to the -nether-moft, and then open the bark 
of your flock on each fide 5 then raile the bark on each 
fide ofyour bud, and force it off in that manner,as was men¬ 
tioned in the former way of budding, and then your bud or 
fhield will referable the laft form, but the Cuts on your flock 
this form H|H then put in your bud and it will exaftly fit, 
then tie it up as aforefaid. 
Another way or form which is uled by lbme,they cut the 
for m of their Scutcheon with fomewood, as in the fnft man¬ 
ner or form of inoculating is mentioned, and then with a 
nimble flit which is eafie enough, tear off the Scutcheon or 
Bud from the wood, and then make ready your Stock after 
any of the former ways to put in your bud either upwards or 
downwards 3 divers that ufe this way have only a foortgood 
cutting knife with a Hope point, with which they open the 
bark of their Stock, they that have not the right Height of 
taking or fnatchingoff the bud, are very apt to leave the fub- 
ftance of the bud behind 3 the truth is, any of thele forms.
