that_o when_o the_o liquor_n be_v cold_a it_o may_v be_v as_o stiff_a as_o jelly_n then_o to_o some_o of_o that_o put_v some_o spanish_a white_a to_o make_v it_o somewhat_o thick_a than_o cream_n and_o keep_v it_o warm_a upon_o a_o few_o coal_n and_o do_v your_o work_n four_o or_o five_o time_n that_o your_o wood_n be_v thorough_o cover_v then_o smooth_v it_o with_o rush_n and_o then_o do_v

first_o ground_n your_o work_n with_o vermilion_n as_o in_o the_o red_a tortoise_n then_o with_o the_o cloud_v direct_v for_o that_o take_v very_o little_a in_o your_o brush_n and_o hold_v it_o upright_o in_o your_o hand_n strike_v it_o down_o pretty_a quick_a and_o hard_o and_o take_v no_o great_a compass_n at_o a_o time_n than_o you_o can_v well_o attend_v before_o the_o varnish_n dry_v to_o disperse_v the_o little_a black_a eye_n and_o froth_n occasion_v by_o the_o quick_a motion_n of_o your_o brush_n and_o then_o begin_v again_o at_o the_o edge_n where_o you_o leave_v off_o after_o that_o proceed_v as_o in_o your_o tortoise_n to_o make_v gold_n size_n to_o a_o quart_n of_o linseed_n oil_n put_v white_a copperis_n honey_n razen_a and_o littridge_n of_o gold_n each_o one_o ounce_n

part_n into_o a_o pot_n or_o bottle_n and_o as_o you_o have_v occasion_n to_o use_v it_o grind_v a_o small_a quantity_n of_o it_o at_o a_o time_n upon_o your_o stone_n with_o a_o little_a white_a lead_n yellow_a ocker_n and_o a_o little_a boul_a almanick_n to_o be_v of_o a_o thin_a consistence_n than_o you_o make_v your_o colour_n for_o paint_v but_o you_o must_v be_v careful_a to_o grind_v it_o extreme_o fine_a otherwise_o your_o mettle_n will_v not_o lie_v even_o white_a varnish_n take_v four_o ounce_n of_o the_o largest_n lump_n of_o gum_n sandrock_n four_o ounce_n of_o gum_n animy_n one_o ounce_n of_o mastic_n and_o one_o ounce_n of_o camphier_n scrape_v off_o the_o outside_n of_o your_o gum_n that_o they_o be_v very_o clean_a and_o bruise_v they_o all_o as_o in_o your_o other_o varnish_n and_o slice_v the_o camphier_n thin_a and_o put_v they_o altogether_o into_o a_o quart_n of_o spirit_n of_o wine_n and_o manage_v it_o at_o the_o fire_n after_o the_o same_o method_n and_o for_o the_o same_o time_n as_o you_o do_v the_o other_o varnish_n and_o when_o it_o have_v stand_v twenty_o four_o hour_n let_v it_o through_o a_o cloth_n into_o another_o bottle_n and_o it_o will_v at_o once_o all_o run_v off_o clear_a this_o be_v to_o be_v use_v with_o blue_n and_o white_a colour_n after_o the_o same_o manner_n as_o you_o use_v your_o other_o varnish_n with_o other_o colour_n it_o likewise_o be_v twice_o lay_v on_o preserve_v anything_o silver_v from_o ever_o tarnish_v and_o be_v most_o use_v for_o this_o to_o enammel_v dissolve_v some_o gum_n arabic_a in_o fair_a water_n and_o mix_v with_o it_o some_o of_o your_o shell_n gold_n or_o shell_n silver_n and_o with_o a_o small_a pencil_n draw_v upon_o your_o work_n either_o before_o your_o work_n be_v fit_a to_o polish_v or_o after_o it_o be_v do_v but_o i_o conceive_v it_o best_o before_o you_o varnish_v it_o the_o last_o ten_o time_n so_o that_o varnish_n and_o pollish_v upon_o it_o will_v both_o secure_v it_o from_o tarnish_v and_o rub_v off_o you_o must_v observe_v that_o all_o the_o wood_n you_o intend_v to_o varnish_v that_o be_v of_o a_o open_a grain_n as_o oak_n fir_n or_o such_o like_a you_o must_v first_o white_a and_o smooth_a it_o just_a as_o you_o do_v for_o gild_v otherwise_o the_o varnish_n will_v not_o fill_v it_o up_o though_o you_o repeat_v it_o never_o so_o often_o to_o lay_v on_o your_o mettle_n speckles_n first_o wet_v your_o work_n with_o varnish_n with_o a_o soft_a brush_n then_o while_o it_o be_v wet_a dust_n your_o speckle_n upon_o it_o through_o a_o piece_n of_o tiffany_n and_o then_o varnish_v it_o twice_o to_o keep_v they_o from_o rub_v off_o it_o be_v enough_o you_o be_v to_o grind_v all_o your_o colour_n dry_a and_o very_a small_a finis_fw-la
