the_o worm_n have_v spin_v then_o aforehand_o you_o may_v kill_v the_o worm_n thus_o with_o the_o heat_n of_o the_o sun_n to_o this_o end_n then_o you_o must_v spread_v the_o silk_n bottom_n in_o the_o sun_n at_o noonday_n when_o it_o be_v in_o the_o great_a heat_n upon_o plank_n or_o such_o like_a for_o the_o space_n of_o one_o hour_n turn_v they_o often_o after_o that_o gather_v they_o all_o into_o a_o heap_n in_o a_o linen_n cloth_n and_o therewith_o cover_v they_o to_o smother_v the_o worm_n within_o their_o bottom_n and_o continue_v in_o so_o do_v two_o or_o three_o day_n and_o in_o case_n the_o sun_n shall_v be_v want_v in_o light_n and_o heat_n to_o kill_v the_o worm_n then_o after_o you_o have_v draw_v your_o bread_n from_o out_o the_o oven_n or_o else_o have_v heat_v it_o to_o the_o same_o measure_n and_o proportion_n of_o heat_n all_o the_o ember_n of_o the_o fire_n first_o take_v out_o you_o may_v put_v the_o bottom_n into_o the_o oven_n upon_o wooden_a board_n or_o some_o such_o like_a thing_n and_o stir_v they_o often_o as_o we_o have_v already_o say_v but_o remember_v that_o you_o leave_v not_o the_o bottom_n above_o a_o hour_n in_o the_o oven_n lest_o the_o silk_n burn_v or_o be_v too_o much_o dry_v up_o become_v unfit_a to_o be_v spin_a afterward_o beware_v also_o the_o oven_n be_v not_o too_o hot_a and_o if_o the_o worm_n be_v not_o dead_a at_o the_o first_o time_n put_v they_o in_o again_o till_o they_o be_v dead_a after_o that_o you_o must_v keep_v the_o silk_n bottom_n in_o a_o place_n where_o they_o may_v not_o be_v press_v together_o too_o hard_o and_o where_o vermine_n can_v come_v and_o so_o you_o may_v keep_v they_o till_o you_o have_v time_n convenient_a to_o spin_v the_o silk_n yet_o if_o you_o can_v spin_v the_o silk_n before_o you_o kill_v the_o worm_n the_o silk_n will_v prove_v much_o better_a and_o more_o easy_a to_o be_v spin_a there_o be_v another_o way_n and_o better_o to_o kill_v the_o worm_n within_o their_o

half_o full_a with_o water_n then_o they_o make_v a_o fire_n in_o the_o furnace_n to_o heat_v the_o water_n then_o they_o lay_v a_o round_a lid_n or_o cover_v of_o plank_n or_o board_n within_o the_o

the_o carpet_n the_o silk_n bottom_n be_v lay_v which_o must_v be_v stir_v often_o and_o the_o cauldron_n or_o copper_n must_v be_v cover_v above_o the_o lid_n that_o the_o heat_n may_v smother_v the_o worm_n within_o the_o bottom_n when_o the_o worm_n be_v dead_a take_v up_o the_o bottom_n and_o lay_v they_o in_o some_o room_n where_o there_o be_v air_n to_o draw_v out_o and_o dry_v their_o

will_v become_v white_a and_o smooth_a as_o wool_n after_o that_o woman_n may_v spin_v they_o in_o this_o manner_n as_o follow_v first_o of_o all_o they_o must_v pull_v they_o with_o their_o finger_n one_o after_o another_o and_o open_v they_o very_o wide_o as_o they_o do_v wool_n when_o they_o spin_v it_o then_o must_v they_o put_v the_o silk_n upon_o the_o distatfe_n and_o spin_v it_o as_o small_a and_o fine_a as_o they_o can_v or_o will_n other_o do_v card_n it_o with_o card_n make_v for_o the_o purpose_n but_o than_o it_o can_v be_v spin_a so_o even_o as_o touch_v the_o refuse_n or_o dross_n that_o must_v be_v card_a for_o to_o spin_v it_o he_o that_o will_v have_v his_o say_a course_n silk_n yellow_a be_v must_v put_v the_o pierce_a bottom_n in_o fresh_a water_n four_o or_o

while_o the_o worm_n be_v yet_o little_a you_o may_v cut_v off_o some_o branch_n of_o the_o mulberry_n tree_n and_o hang_v they_o up_o in_o house_n where_o the_o air_n may_v come_v to_o dry_v they_o and_o as_o soon_o as_o the_o leaf_n be_v dry_a you_o must_v pluck_v they_o for_o otherwise_o the_o branch_n will_v draw_v the_o sap_n and_o juice_n of_o the_o leaf_n to_o they_o otherwise_o if_o you_o
