111 Why a Gardener is the most extraiordinary Man in the World
Because no Man has more business upon the Earth, and he always chuses good Ground for what he does; he commands his Thyme? [inserted" he is a Master of the Mint] and fingers Penny-Royal; he raises his Celery every Year, and it is a bad one indeed that does not bring him a Plumb; he meets with more Boughs than a Minister of State, he makes more Beds than the French King and has more painted Ladies in them; he makes Raking his business more than his diversion; as many other men do; his Wife has enough of Boy's=love and Hearts-ease and he never wishes for Weeds; distempers fatal to to others never hurt him; he walks better for the Gravel and thrives most in a Consumption; his greatest pride the World's greatest envy is that he may have
Yew whenever he pleases.
