Country Wisdom 3/2

Yep, its back!

'March dust to be sold worth Ransom of Gold'

~March~

Sow barley in March, in April, and May
the later in sand, and the sooner in clay.
What worser for barley, than wetness and cold?
what better to skilfull, than time to be bold?

Who soweth his barley too soon, or in rain,
of oats of thistles shall after complain:
I speak not of May-weed, of Cockle and such, that noieth the barley, so often and much.
