A BOOKE OF SECRETS Shewing diuers waies to make and prepare all sorts of Inke and Colours as Blacke White Blew Gréene Red Yellow and other Colours Also to write with Gold and Siluer or any kind of Mettall out of the Pen with many other profitable secrets as to colour Quils and Parchment of any colour and to graue with strong Water in Steele and Iron Necessarie to be knowne of all Scriueners Painters and others that delight in such Arts. Translated out of Dutch into English by W. P. Hereunto is annexed a little Treatise intituled Jnstructions for ordering of Wines Shewing how to make Wine That it may continue good and faint not Neither become sower nor loose colour And how you may remedie faint Wine take away the hoarinesse with other instructions for the preseruation of the same Written first in Italian and now newly translated into English by W. P. LONDON Printed by Adam Islip for Edward White and are to be sold at his shop at the little North dore of Pouls at the signe of the Gun 1596. ¶ A Booke of Secrets shewing diuers waies to make and prepare all sorts of Inke and colours And first to make Inke in diuers maners IT is first to bee vnderstood that if you wil make a great quantitie of Inke together you must encrease the waight and measure according to the proportion you meane to make as for example if you will make ten quarts of Inke then take foure quarts of water and sixe quarts of vineger and wine that is three of each sort which together with the water make ten quarts and so must you doe with other quantities either more or lesse The like must you doe in the waight of your other stuffe that belongeth therevnto as for a pint of water sixe ounces of gaule foure ounces of victriall and foure ounces of gum and if you take foure quarts of water which is eight pints if you giue to euery pint his proportion then multiplying eight by sixe they make fortie eight so many ounces of gaule must you put to ten quarts mixed as afore said with wine vineger water and of victrial and gum of each xxxii ounces according to the first proportion and so must you obserue your quantities of waight and measure in each proportion as you are minded to encrease the same as in this treatise you shal read To make Inke to write vpon paper Take halfe a pint of water a pint wanting a quarter of wine and as much vineger which being mixed together make a quart a quarter of a pint more then take six ounces of gauls beaten into small pouder and sifted through a siue put this pouder into a pot by it selfe and poure halfe the water wine and vineger into it take likewise foure ounces of victriall and beat it into pouder and put it also in a pot by it selfe whereinto put a quarter of the wine water vineger that remaineth and to the other quarter put foure ounces of gum Arabike beaten to pouder that done couer the three pots close and let them stand three or foure daies together stirring them euery day three or foure times on the first day set the pot with gaules on the fire and when it begins to seeth stir it about till it be throughly warme then straine it through a cloath into another pot and mixe it with the other two pots stirring them well together and being couered then let it stand three daies till thou meanest to vse it on the fourth day when it is setled poure it out and it wil be good inke If there remaine any dregs behind poure some raine water that hath stand long in a tubor vessell into it for the older the water is the better it is and keepe that vntill you make more inke so it is better thē clean water To make Inke for parchment Make it in all points like to the inke aforesaid only take a pint of water of vineger and wine a pint more that is of each halfe a pint Another sort of Inke Take a quart of cleare water and put it in a glasse put into it thirteene ounces beaten victriall let it stand three daies and stir it three or foure times euery day then take thirteene ounces of beaten gaules and put them into a new earthen pot that is wel leaded poure into them a quart of cleane water that done set it on the fire and let it seeth till it consumeth about a singer deepe but suffer it not to seeth so fast that it seeth ouer the pots brim then strain it through a wollē cloath into another pot that is leaded poure into the cloath a cup full of good vineger and strain it though likewise that done if there remaineth any thing in the cloath cast it away then put into the matter foure or fiue ounces of beaten gum and stir them well together then againe straine them through a cleane wollen cloath and poure into it a cup full of good vineger and straine it through the cloath and let it stand till it be coole then put it into a straight-necked glasse stop both the glasses well till you haue occasion to vse them then take of each water a little quantitie and mix them together so haue you good inke Another of the same sort but easie to make Take the beaten gauls and put them in the water doe the like with the victriall in a pot by it self let those two waters stand and when you haue cause to vse inke poure out of each pot a like quantitie and it will be blacke then put into it a little beaten gum it will bee good inke Another Take a quart of strong wine put it into a new pot and set it on a soft fire till it be hote but let it not seeth then put into it foure ounces of gauls two ounces and a halfe of gum Arabike and two ounces of victriall al beaten into smal pouder and sifted through a siue stirre it with a wooden sticke and it will be good inke Another Take an ounce of beaten gaule three or four ounces of gum Arabicke put them together in a pot with raine water and when the gum is almost consumed strain it through a cloath and put into it almost halfe a cup of victriall beaten to pouder Another Take a pint of beere put into it an ounce of gaules beaten to pouder let it seeth till it seeme somewhat red then put to it three quarters of an ounce of greene victriall in small pouder and let it seeth againe when you take it off the fire cast into it three quarters of an ounce of gum and a small peece of alum both in pouder and stir them all together till it be cold Another Take two handfull of gauls cut each gaule either into three or four peeces poure into them a pint of beere or wine which you wil then let it stand eight houres straine it from the gaules and put victriall therein and to the
