water_n the_o first_o be_v cold_a which_o do_v manifest_o condense_a as_o we_o see_v in_o the_o contract_n of_o the_o air_n in_o the_o weatherglass_n whereby_o it_o be_v a_o degree_n near_o to_o

as_o in_o stillatory_n where_o the_o vapour_n be_v turn_v back_o upon_o itself_o by_o the_o encounter_n of_o the_o side_n of_o the_o stillatory_n and_o in_o the_o dew_n upon_o the_o cover_v of_o

that_o be_v already_o very_o near_o in_o degree_n to_o water_n the_o three_o be_v that_o which_o may_v be_v search_v into_o but_o do_v not_o yet_o appear_v which_o be_v by_o mingle_v of_o moist_a

the_o air_n therefore_o put_v water_n into_o the_o bottom_n of_o a_o stillatory_n with_o the_o nebb_n stop_v weigh_v the_o water_n first_o hang_v in_o the_o middle_a of_o the_o stillatory_n a_o

understand_v that_o if_o any_o version_n can_v be_v wrought_v it_o will_v be_v easely_a do_v in_o small_a pore_n and_o that_o be_v the_o reason_n why_o we_o prescribe_v a_o sponge_n the_o four_o way_n be_v probable_a also_o though_o not_o appear_v which_o be_v by_o receive_v the_o air_n into_o the_o small_a pore_n of_o body_n for_o as_o have_v be_v say_v every_o thing_n in_o small_a quantity_n be_v
