The Natural History of Selborne

Sad weather for the barley.  Barley housed at Bramshot & other places, being green & damp, has heated violently, & endangered the firing of barns.  All the hops of this parish this year are carried to Wey-hill in two waggons: good crops require four or five.  Gathered two or three bunches of grapes: they have some colour, but are crude & sour.– By the evening being so light, there must be great N. Auroras.  Mr. Yalden finished mowing his barley.
