ABSTRACT
THERE are, besides, trees of many different kinds in those cold parts, as well as those mentioned above. These include poplar, ash, and tall junipers, which because of their height and the scent they contain, resembling that of cypress, are duly prepared for erecting choice dwellings, and for fuel, both in time of plague and for other, everyday use.1 For trees of this kind are self-sown and, since their stock is everlasting, they continue growing indefinitely, thrive, and become ineradicable, so that, when they have reached a sturdy age, as I have already said, they are suitable for high and low structures, in that they furnish extra-strong beams.
