Square root and cube root – instead of being two different
roots belonging to the same imaginary plant. Square
root, as being that one of the two that are which is of the most
most frequent occurrence, a root, such as that of a
common radish which runs out into length, made
square, viz. as it might be by four strokes of a knife
made at the taken made in proper situations places and directions carried down along the length way of it in proper
situations.

Cube root, another sort of root a root of another
