A28293	Rules for assizing of bread viz. by troy-weight, or sterling, and by avoirdupoids weights : together with the rule of coequality of both weights, and the assize by a standard-weight for white, wheaten, and household loaves, assized by a certain price, rising and lowering, as the price of wheat rises and falls in the market : all three calculated exactly according to the statute Assiza panis 51.H.3. now in force in Ireland.

a_o price_n and_o also_o by_o our_o currant_n money_n divide_v only_o in_o shilling_n or_o 12_o pence_n or_o 24_o half_a penny_n or_o 48_o farthing_n which_o be_v something_o troublesome_a because_o of_o our_o assize_n which_o rise_v and_o fall_v by_o odd_a number_n and_o fraction_n and_o extend_v further_a than_o the_o number_n of_o 48_o farthing_n therefore_o we_o be_v necessitate_v to_o divide_v our_o farthing_n in_o four_o piece_n which_o we_o may_v call_v denier_n and_o that_o may_v be_v easy_o do_v and_o without_o charge_n the_o other_o assize_n begin_v by_o a_o supposition_n when_o corn_n be_v at_o 6_o d._n the_o quarter_n a_o penny_n white_a roll_n ought_v to_o weigh_v so_o much_o but_o that_o supposition_n be_v only_o for_o rule_v sake_n and_o not_o to_o be_v practise_v because_o the_o baker_n since_o that_o statute_n have_v six_o shilling_n allowance_n and_o therefore_o if_o corn_n shall_v ever_o fall_v so_o low_a as_o 6_o d._n a_o quarter_n they_o ought_v to_o be_v assized_a as_o if_o sell_v at_o 6_o s._n 6_o d._n as_o they_o be_v allow_v in_o all_o assize_n and_o therefore_o a_o certain_a proportion_n of_o money_n ought_v to_o be_v apply_v on_o every_o six_o penny_n that_o a_o quarter_n of_o wheat_n and_o allowance_n to_o the_o baker_n amount_v unto_o and_o so_o exact_o that_o when_o the_o price_n of_o corn_n rise_v or_o fall_v by_o 6_o d._n that_o of_o the_o standard_n bread_n may_v also_o rise_v and_o fall_v according_o by_o equal_a portion_n as_o it_o do_v by_o the_o assize_n by_o troy_n and_o avoirdupoids_n viz._n from_o 6_o d._n to_o 5_o l._n the_o rule_n of_o the_o statute_n be_v that_o a_o quarter_n of_o wheat_n shall_v be_v divide_v in_o 8_o bushel_n or_o 64_o wine_n gallon_n and_o shall_v weigh_v 512._o pound_n or_o 6144_o ounce_n or_o

into_o as_o many_o part_n which_o oblige_v i_o to_o divide_v the_o farthing_n in_o 4_o denier_n there_o be_v but_o 48_o farthing_n in_o a_o shilling_n and_o so_o have_v 192_o denier_n the_o three_o

fall_v the_o price_n of_o my_o standard_n by_o 3_o quarter_n on_o each_o six_o penny_n which_o will_v answer_v exact_o the_o assize_n by_o troy_n and_o avoirdupoids_n example_n suppose_v that_o corn_n

bring_v 48_o farthing_n which_o be_v a_o shilling_n look_v on_o the_o assize_n by_o troy_n weight_n at_o 32_o s._n price_n of_o corn_n and_o allowance_n and_o you_o will_v find_v that_o the_o penny_n white_n be_v to_o weigh_v 10_o ounce_n 11_o penny_n weight_n and_o half_a so_o that_o a_o 12_o penny_n loaf_n must_v weigh_v 126_o ounce_n 18_o penny_n or_o 10_o pound_n 6_o ounce_n 18_o penny_n weight_n the_o wheaten_n be_v to_o weigh_v half_o more_o and_o the_o household_n twice_o as_o much_o and_o these_o be_v our_o three_o standard_n for_o white_a wheaten_n and_o household_n bread_n all_o the_o assize_n answer_v this_o exact_o i_o shall_v not_o trouble_v the_o reader_n with_o the_o proof_n of_o each_o for_o it_o will_v make_v this_o book_n too_o voluminous_a and_o every_o one_o may_v
