where_o alcaly_n be_v more_o complicate_v and_o interweave_v with_o other_o essential_a part_n there_o the_o precipitation_n by_o acid_n of_o what_o those_o already_o have_v dissolve_v be_v in_o no_o

be_v capable_a of_o precipitate_v what_o other_o have_v dissolve_v to_o prove_v and_o illustrate_v which_o i_o try_v this_o follow_a instance_n viz._n i_o take_v a_o clear_a solution_n of_o saccharum_n saturni_n which_o i_o have_v prepare_v with_o distil_a vinegar_n which_o no_o man_n will_v deny_v to_o be_v a_o acid_n upon_o which_o i_o pour_v a_o pretty_a smart_a spirit_n of_o vitriol_n whereupon_o it_o present_o become_v milky_a and_o cause_v a_o precipitation_n of_o a_o pure_a white_a calx_fw-la of_o saturn_n which_o precipitation_n may_v also_o be_v do_v with_o spirit_n of_o salt_n the_o same_o likewise_o will_v spirit_n of_o salt_n do_v pour_v upon_o a_o solution_n of_o refine_a silver_n make_v in_o double_a its_o weight_n of_o aqua_fw-la fortis_fw-la in_o prepare_v that_o admirable_a anomolous_a neutral_a concretion_n call_v luna_n cornea_n mention_v by_o the_o honourable_a boil_n in_o his_o origin_n of_o form_n and_o not_o only_a spirit_n of_o salt_n but_o also_o oil_n of_o vitriol_n will_v cause_v the_o like_a precipitation_n whence_o its_o obvious_a to_o any_o eye_n that_o what_o some_o acid_v dissolve_v other_o may_v precipitate_v from_o the_o congenealness_n of_o the_o solvend_n to_o one_o solvend_n more_o than_o another_o for_o both_o those_o wherein_o the_o solution_n of_o the_o metal_n be_v make_v viz._n spirit_n of_o vinegar_n and_o

depend_v not_o upon_o acid_n or_o alcalizate_a liquor_n as_o such_o but_o upon_o the_o consanguinity_n if_o i_o may_v so_o say_v of_o body_n or_o solvend_n to_o liquor_n or_o solvent_n viz._n whilst_o a_o acid_n have_v dissolve_v one_o body_n meet_v with_o another_o akin_a thereto_o let_v we_o the_o former_a fall_n and_o from_o a_o abstruse_a affinity_n of_o part_n dissolve_v the_o latter_a from_o whence_o it_o need_v not_o seem_v heterodox_n although_o to_o the_o most_o it_o may_v as_o yet_o a_o paradox_n to_o say_v that_o fix_v alcaly_n open_v the_o body_n of_o mineral_n sulphur_n as_o they_o be_v acido-sulphurous_a salt_n and_o that_o chief_o as_o they_o partake_v of_o the_o acidum_fw-la of_o fire_n assume_v by_o calcination_n and_o that_o precipitation_n of_o the_o same_o folution_n may_v be_v perform_v and_o that_o too_o without_o the_o least_o absurdity_n in_o philosophy_n by_o other_o superven_a acid_n as_o we_o have_v even_o now_o demonstrate_v as_o i_o observe_v all_o fix_a
