of_o i_o have_v pile_v up_o many_o cartloads_a of_o these_o brass-lump_n in_o a_o barn_n of_o he_o for_o some_o secret_a purpose_n of_o his_o own_o the_o roof_n let_v rain-water_n fall_v copious_o in_o among_o they_o they_o all_o begin_v to_o smoke_n and_o at_o last_o to_o take_v fire_n and_o burn_v like_o red_a hot_a coal_n so_o that_o the_o town_n be_v in_o a_o uproar_n about_o quench_v of_o they_o and_o one_o thing_n further_o i_o take_v special_a notice_n of_o in_o this_o unlucky_a experiment_n that_o the_o water_n which_o drain_v from_o the_o quench_n of_o they_o leave_v little_a piece_n and_o crystal_n of_o copperase_n stick_v all_o along_o to_o the_o pile_n of_o grass_n that_o grow_v in_o the_o croft_n it_o run_v down_o thus_o antimony_n and_o sublimate_n be_v mix_v together_o will_v grow_v so_o hot_a the_o one_o relax_v the_o ferment_a spirit_n in_o the_o other_o that_o they_o be_v not_o to_o be_v touch_v thus_o in_o the_o corrosion_n of_o metal_n by_o aqua_fw-la fortis_fw-la what_o a_o strong_a heat_n be_v there_o in_o the_o liquor_n and_o what_o a_o steam_n constant_o evaporate_v during_o their_o fermentation_n in_o the_o commixtion_n of_o oil_n of_o vitriol_n with_o oil_n of_o tartar_n per_fw-la deliquium_fw-la what_o a_o violent_a heat_n and_o effervescence_n do_v present_o arise_v beside_o a_o sharp_a and_o acrimonious_a vapour_n that_o strike_v our_o nostril_n nay_o and_o we_o see_v our_o subterraneous_a damp_n do_v sometime_o with_o intermixtion_n with_o the_o moist_a air_n grow_v to_o that_o over-height_n of_o fermentation_n that_o they_o fire_n of_o themselves_o and_o strike_v down_o all_o before_o they_o thus_o the_o spirit_n of_o niter_n mix_v with_o butter_n of_o antimony_n grow_v so_o hot_a that_o it_o be_v ready_a

the_o ferment_a spirit_n set_v a_o play_v in_o they_o as_o the_o learned_a doctor_n jordan_n do_v most_o rational_o conjecture_v this_o universal_a ferment_a spirit_n do_v not_o only_o play_v these_o

which_o pass_v from_o it_o and_o therefore_o it_o shoot_v forth_o into_o spire_n thus_o we_o see_v in_o wet-hay_a how_o the_o spirit_n work_v not_o only_o to_o a_o heat_n but_o if_o they_o be_v not_o cool_v and_o prevent_v by_o ventilation_n they_o break_v out_o into_o a_o flame_n also_o nay_o in_o all_o vegetable_n there_o be_v this_o constant_a heat_n though_o it_o be_v below_o our_o sensation_n as_o it_o be_v in_o some_o fish_n and_o cold_a animal_n also_o and_o a_o constant_a steam_n and_o transpiration_n of_o particle_n as_o we_o have_v experimental_o prove_v in_o our_o xxv_o observation_n and_o now_o let_v we_o pursue_v these_o spirit_n into_o the_o animal_n kingdom_n and_o we_o shall_v see_v that_o they_o have_v the_o like_a effect_n and_o operation_n there_o also_o as_o be_v former_o

by_o that_o lax_n and_o boggy_a substance_n be_v imbibe_v and_o separate_v from_o the_o blood_n and_o thence_o by_o the_o spinal_a marrow_n and_o nerve_n transmit_v to_o all_o the_o part_n of_o the_o
