instrument_n with_o which_o a_o laboratory_n ought_v to_o be_v furnish_v be_v of_o two_o sort_n for_o some_o be_v principal_a the_o other_o less-principal_a the_o principal_a instrument_n without_o

furnace_n may_v be_v the_o more_o even_a and_o firm_a and_o the_o easy_o build_v even_o without_o cement_n moreover_o they_o be_v almost_o in_o the_o shape_n of_o a_o half_a moon_n that_o they_o may_v make_v the_o furnace_n round_o that_o figure_n be_v the_o fit_a to_o gather_v and_o concentrate_v the_o heat_n therefore_o we_o form_v our_o brick_n in_o a_o woodden-mould_n either_o of_o box_n or_o

mould_n grow_v dirty_a rub_v the_o side_n of_o it_o with_o sand_n dry_v your_o brick_n in_o the_o shade_n so_o they_o will_v last_v long_o for_o be_v thus_o half-dried_n they_o will_v bake_v leisurely_o in_o the_o use_n of_o they_o and_o not_o be_v apt_a to_o crumble_v and_o break_v neither_o will_v they_o be_v so_o soon_o calcine_v as_o if_o you_o have_v dry_v they_o by_o the_o fire_n or_o sun_n or_o in_o a_o potter_n oven_n our_o round_n or_o saltseller_n derive_v their_o name_n from_o their_o figure_n because_o they_o be_v somewhat_o like_o the_o old-fashioned_a saltseller_n to_o form_v they_o take_v of_o our_o lute_n a_o quantity_n as_o big_a as_o your_o fist_n and_o roll_a it_o between_o both_o hand_n reduce_v it_o to_o the_o form_n of_o a_o cylinder_n two_o inch_n high_a

the_o fire_n will_v scarce_o be_v able_a to_o heat_v the_o water_n contain_v in_o your_o vessel_n observe_v that_o sometime_o the_o matrass_n be_v lute_v up_o to_o the_o neck_n sometime_o half_a way_n
