[Sidenote: How to cover corn.] Nowe these cornes be shorne and bounden, and the tithes cast out, it is tyme to couer theym, shoke theym, or halfe-throne them, but couerynge is the beste waye [Sidenote: [Fol. 23_b_.]] of all maner of whyte corne. And that is, to set foure 4 sheues on one syde, and .iiii. sheues on the other syde, [Sidenote: Set ten sheaves together.] and two sheues aboue, of the greatteste, bounden harde nyghe to the nether ende, the whiche must be set vpwarde, and the top downewarde spredde abrode to couer all the 8 other sheues. And they wyll sta_n_d beste in wynde, and saue theym-selfe beste in rayne, and they wolde be set on the rydge of the lande, and the sayde sheues to leane to-gether in the toppes, and wyde at the grounde, that 12 [Sidenote: For peas and beans set three together.] the winde may go through, to drye them. Pees and beanes wolde be set on the rydge of the lande, thre sheues together, the toppes vpwarde, and wrythen to-gether, and wyde benethe, that they maye the better 16 wyddre. 32. ¶ To lode corne, and mowe it. [Sidenote: To load corn.] Whanne all these cornes be drye and wyddred ynoughe, than lode theym in-to the barne, and laye euerye corne [Sidenote: Make many mows, if it be wet.] by it-selfe. And if be a wete haruest, make many mowes: and if thou haue not housynge ynoughe, thanne it is 4 better to laye thy pees and benes without vppon a reke, than other corne, and it is better vppon a scaffolde than vppon the grounde: for than it muste be well hedged [Sidenote: [Fol. 24.]] for swyne and catel, and the grounde wyll rotte the 8 bottom, and the scaffolde saueth both hedgynge and rottynge: but they must be well couered bothe. And the [Sidenote: The scaffold.] husband may set shepe or catel vnder the same scaffold and wyll serue hym in stede of an house, if it be well 12 and surely made, &c. 33. ¶ The second[25] sturrynge.
