be_v you_o may_v be_v teach_v to_o make_v many_o other_o colour_n but_o it_o be_v to_o little_a purpose_n for_o doubtless_o the_o water_n or_o glass_n colour_a hair_n be_v the_o most_o choice_a and_o most_o useful_a for_o a_o angler_n but_o if_o you_o desire_v to_o colour_v hair_n green_a then_o do_v it_o thus_o take_v a_o quart_n of_o small_a ale_n half_o a_o pound_n of_o allome_n then_o put_v

then_o put_v into_o it_o half_o a_o pound_n of_o copporis_n beat_v small_a and_o with_o it_o the_o hair_n that_o you_o intend_v to_o colour_n then_o let_v the_o hair_n be_v boil_v soft_o till_o half_a the_o liquor_n be_v waste_v and_o then_o let_v it_o cool_v three_o or_o four_o hour_n with_o your_o hair_n in_o it_o and_o you_o be_v to_o observe_v that_o the_o morecopporis_fw-la you_o put_v into_o it_o the_o green_a it_o will_v be_v but_o doubtless_o the_o pale_a green_a be_v best_a but_o if_o you_o desire_v yellow_a hair_n which_o be_v only_o good_a when_o the_o weed_n rot_v then_o put_v in_o the_o more_o marigold_n and_o abate_v most_o of_o the_o copporis_fw-la or_o leave_v it_o out_o and_o take_v a_o little_a verdigris_n in_o stead_n of_o it_o this_o for_o colour_v your_o hair_n and_o as_o for_o paint_v your_o rod_n which_o must_v be_v in_o oil_n you_o must_v first_o make_v a_o size_n with_o glue_n and_o water_n boil_v together_o until_o the_o glue_n be_v dissolve_v and_o the_o
