the_o most_o ordinary_a way_n be_v to_o warm_v the_o water_n very_o hot_a and_o then_o to_o pour_v out_o half_a the_o cup_n full_a that_o you_o mean_v to_o drink_v and_o to_o put_v into_o it_o a_o

a_o scum_n to_o fill_v the_o cup_n with_o hot_a water_n and_o so_o drink_v it_o by_o sup_v have_v sweeten_v it_o with_o sugar_n and_o to_o eat_v it_o with_o a_o little_a conserve_n or_o maple_n

to_o the_o quantity_n of_o the_o chocolatte_a and_o then_o to_o boil_v it_o again_o until_o there_o come_v a_o oily_a scum_n upon_o it_o and_o then_o to_o drink_v it_o there_o be_v another_o way_n yet_o to_o drink_v chocolatte_a which_o be_v cold_a which_o the_o indian_n use_v at_o feast_n to_o refresh_v themselves_o and_o it_o be_v make_v after_o this_o manner_n the_o chocolatte_a which_o be_v make_v with_o none_o or_o very_o few_o ingredient_n be_v dissolve_v in_o cold_a water_n with_o the_o molinet_n they_o take_v off_o the_o scum_n or_o crassy_a part_n which_o rise_v in_o great_a quantity_n especial_o when_o the_o cacao_n be_v old_a and_o more_o putrefy_a the_o scum_n they_o lie_v aside_o in_o a_o little_a dish_n by_o itself_o and_o then_o put_v sugar_n into_o that_o part_n from_o whence_o be_v take_v the_o scum_n and_o then_o pour_v it_o from_o on_o high_a into_o the_o scum_n and_o so_o drink_v it_o cold_a and_o this_o drink_n be_v so_o cold_a that_o it_o agree_v not_o

if_o some_o have_v find_v it_o oppilative_a it_o have_v come_v by_o the_o too_o too_o much_o use_v of_o it_o as_o when_o one_o drink_n over_o much_o wine_n instead_o of_o comfort_v and_o warm_v himself_o he_o breed_v and_o nourish_v cold_a disease_n because_o nature_n can_v overcome_v it_o nor_o turn_v so_o great_a a_o quantity_n into_o good_a nourishment_n so_o he_o that_o drink_v much_o

because_o they_o be_v hot_a and_o dry_a in_o the_o three_o degree_n and_o we_o have_v already_o say_v that_o the_o quality_n which_o do_v predominate_v in_o cacao_n be_v cold_a and_o dry_a which_o be_v very_o unfit_a to_o add_v any_o substance_n to_o the_o body_n nevertheless_o it_o may_v be_v answer_v that_o the_o many_o unctuous_a part_n which_o have_v be_v prove_v to_o be_v in_o the_o cacao_n be_v those_o which_o pinguifie_v and_o make_v fat_a and_o the_o hot_a ingredient_n of_o this_o composition_n serve_v for_o a_o guide_n or_o vehicall_a to_o pass_v to_o the_o liver_n and_o
