A67033	A century of the names and scantlings of such inventions as at present I can call to mind to have tried and perfected, which, my former notes being lost, I have, at the instance of a powerful friend, endeavoured now in the year 1655, to set these down in such a way as may sufficiently instruct me to put any of them in practice	Worcester, Edward Somerset, Marquis of, 1601-1667.	1663 (1663)	Wing W3532; ESTC R7944	14,317	108

pond_n or_o raise_v gravel_n a_o engine_n whereby_o one_o man_n may_v take_v out_o of_o the_o water_n a_o ship_n of_o 500_o tun_n so_o that_o it_o may_v be_v calk_v trim_v and_o repair_v without_o
