pint_n if_o you_o give_v to_o every_o pint_n his_o proportion_n then_o multiply_v eight_o by_o six_o they_o make_v forty_o eight_o so_o many_o ounce_n of_o gall_n must_v you_o put_v to_o ten_o quart_n mix_v as_o afore_o say_v with_o wine_n vinegar_n &_o water_n and_o of_o victrial_a and_o gum_n of_o each_o xxxii_o ounce_n according_a to_o the_o first_o proportion_n and_o so_o must_v you_o observe_v

whereinto_o put_v a_o quarter_n of_o the_o wine_n water_n &_o vinegar_n that_o remain_v and_o to_o the_o other_o quarter_n put_v four_o ounce_n of_o gum_n arabike_a beat_v to_o powder_n that_o do_v
