glass_n a_o quantity_n of_o glowworm_n that_o shine_v in_o the_o night_n with_o a_o soft_a fire_n and_o put_v the_o distil_a water_n into_o a_o thin_a vial_n of_o glass_n and_o thereunto_o put_v four_o ounce_n of_o quicksilver_n that_o must_v be_v purge_v or_o pass_v through_o leather_n or_o kid_n skin_n then_o stop_v the_o glass_n that_o no_o water_n enter_v and_o tie_v it_o in_o the_o
