the_o discovery_n of_o the_o various_a constitution_n of_o the_o air_n as_o to_o dryness_n and_o moistness_n be_v incomparable_o beyond_o any_o other_o for_o this_o it_o do_v to_o admiration_n the_o manner_n of_o contrive_v it_o so_o as_o to_o perform_v this_o great_a effect_n be_v only_o thus_o provide_v a_o good_a large_a box_n of_o ivory_n about_o four_o inch_n over_o and_o of_o what_o depth_n you_o shall_v judge_v convenient_a according_a to_o your_o intention_n of_o make_v use_n of_o one_o two_o three_o or_o more_o of_o these_o small_a beard_n order_v in_o the_o manner_n which_o i_o shall_v by_o and_o by_o describe_v let_v all_o the_o side_n of_o this_o box_n be_v turn_v of_o basket-work_n which_o here_o in_o london_n be_v easy_o enough_o procure_v full_a of_o hole_n in_o the_o manner_n almost_o of_o a_o lettuce_n the_o big_a or_o more_o the_o hole_n be_v the_o better_a that_o so_o the_o air_n may_v have_v the_o more_o free_a passage_n to_o the_o enclose_a beard_n and_o may_v the_o more_o easy_o pass_v through_o the_o instrument_n it_o will_v be_v better_o yet_o though_o not_o altogether_o so_o handsome_a if_o instead_o of_o the_o basket-work_n on_o the_o side_n of_o the_o box_n the_o bottom_n and_o top_n of_o the_o box_n be_v join_v together_o only_o with_o three_o or_o four_o small_a pillar_n after_o the_o manner_n represent_v in_o the_o 4._o figure_n of_o the_o 15._o scheme_n or_o if_o you_o intend_v to_o make_v use_n of_o many_o of_o these_o small_a beard_n join_v together_o you_o may_v have_v a_o small_a long_a case_n of_o ivory_n who_o side_n be_v turn_v of_o basket-work_n full_a of_o hole_n which_o may_v be_v screw_v on_o to_o the_o underside_n of_o a_o broad_a plate_n of_o ivory_n on_o the_o other_o side_n of_o which_o be_v to_o be_v make_v the_o

the_o air._n there_o may_v be_v multitude_n of_o other_o way_n for_o contrive_v this_o small_a instrument_n so_o as_o to_o produce_v this_o effect_n which_o any_o one_o may_v according_a to_o his_o peculiar_a use_n and_o the_o exigency_n of_o his_o present_a occasion_n easy_o enough_o contrive_v and_o take_v on_o which_o i_o shall_v not_o therefore_o insist_v the_o whole_a manner_n of_o make_v any_o one_o of_o they_o be_v thus_o have_v your_o box_n or_o frame_n aabb_n fit_o adapt_v for_o the_o free_a passage_n of_o the_o air_n through_o it_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o bottom_n bbb_n you_o must_v have_v a_o very_a small_a hole_n c_o into_o which_o the_o low_a end_n of_o the_o beard_n be_v to_o be_v fi'xd_v the_o upper_a end_n of_o which_o beard_n ab_fw-la be_v to_o pass_v

light_n index_n fg_v make_v of_o a_o very_a thin_a sliver_n of_o a_o reed_n or_o cane_n but_o if_o you_o make_v use_v of_o two_o or_o more_o beard_n they_o must_v be_v fix_v and_o bind_v together_o either_o with_o a_o very_a fine_a piece_n of_o silk_n or_o with_o a_o very_a small_a touch_n of_o hard_a wax_n or_o glue_v which_o be_v better_o and_o the_o index_n fg_n be_v to_o be_v fix_v on_o the_o top_n of_o the_o second_o three_o or_o four_o in_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o on_o the_o single_a one_o now_o because_o that_o in_o every_o of_o these_o contrivance_n the_o index_n fg_n will_v with_o some_o temperature_n of_o air_n move_v two_o three_o or_o more_o time_n round_o which_o without_o some_o other_o contrivance_n than_o this_o will_v be_v difficult_a to_o distinguish_v therefore_o i_o think_v of_o this_o expedient_a the_o index_n or_o hand_n fg_v be_v raise_v a_o pretty_a way_n above_o the_o surface_n of_o the_o plate_n aa_n fix_v in_o at_o a_o little_a distance_n
