1699, July 29 — This week has produced much rain here; if the same be at Brampton, will not you please to order the grounds to be watered, which may produce good "edgrow."
Similarly, Thomas Bowen of Tyddyn, Llanidloes, complained to Harris about the 'careless sayings' of a brother called Jones who at a society meeting in Montgomeryshire uttered words like the following:
You shall be turn'd into the Clover, and afterwards into the Edgrow which was brought [= ? bought] with the blood of the Lamb: the Sun circulateth in the Blood of the Lamb.
