with_o black_n have_v this_o passage_n the_o child_n in_o this_o country_n be_v bear_v white_a and_o change_v their_o 5._o colour_n in_o two_o day_n to_o a_o perfect_a black_n as_o for_o example_n the_o portugall_n which_o dwell_v in_o the_o kingdom_n of_o longo_fw-la have_v sometime_o child_n by_o the_o negro_n woman_n and_o many_o time_n the_o father_n be_v deceive_v think_v when_o the_o child_n be_v bear_v that_o it_o be_v they_o and_o within_o two_o day_n it_o prove_v the_o son_n or_o daughter_n of_o a_o negro_n which_o the_o portugall_n great_o grieve_v at_o and_o the_o same_o person_n have_v elsewhere_o a_o relation_n which_o if_o he_o have_v make_v no_o use_n at_o all_o of_o the_o liberty_n of_o a_o traveller_n be_v very_o well_o worth_a our_o notice_n since_o this_o together_o with_o that_o we_o have_v former_o mention_v of_o seminal_a impression_n show_v a_o possibility_n that_o a_o race_n of_o negro_n may_v be_v begin_v though_o none_o of_o the_o son_n of_o adam_n for_o many_o precedent_n generation_n be_v of_o that_o complexion_n for_o i_o see_v not_o why_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v at_o least_o as_o possible_a that_o white_a parent_n may_v sometime_o have_v black_a child_n as_o that_o african_a negro_n shall_v sometime_o have_v last_o white_a one_o especial_o since_o concurrent_a cause_n may_v easy_o more_o befriend_v the_o production_n of_o the_o former_a kind_n than_o under_o the_o scorch_a heat_n of_o africa_n those_o of_o the_o latter_a and_o i_o remember_v on_o the_o occasion_n of_o what_o he_o deliver_v that_o of_o the_o white_a raven_n former_o mention_v the_o possessor_n affirm_v to_o i_o that_o in_o the_o nest_n out_o of_o which_o he_o be_v take_v white_a they_o find_v with_o he_o but_o one_o other_o young_a one_o and_o that_o he_o be_v of_o as_o jetty_a a_o black_a as_o any_o common_a raven_n but_o let_v we_o hear_v our_o author_n himself_o here_o be_v say_v he_o speak_v of_o the_o former_o mention_v region_n bear_v in_o this_o country_n white_a child_n which_o be_v very_o rare_a among_o they_o for_o their_o parent_n be_v negro_n ibid._n and_o when_o any_o of_o they_o be_v bear_v they_o be_v present_v to_o the_o

king_n there_o be_v no_o man_n that_o dare_v meddle_v with_o these_o dondo_n if_o they_o go_v to_o the_o market_n they_o may_v take_v what_o they_o list_v for_o all_o man_n stand_v in_o awe_n of_o they_o the_o king_n of_o longo_fw-la have_v four_a of_o they_o and_o yet_o this_o country_n in_o our_o globe_n be_v place_v almost_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o torrid_a zone_n four_o or_o five_o degree_n southward_o of_o the_o line_n and_o our_o author_n elsewhere_o tell_v we_o of_o the_o inhabitant_n that_o they_o be_v so_o fond_a of_o their_o blackness_n that_o they_o will_v not_o suffer_v any_o that_o be_v not_o of_o that_o colour_n as_o the_o portugall_n that_o come_v to_o trade_n thither_o to_o be_v so_o much_o as_o bury_v in_o their_o land_n of_o which_o he_o annex_v a_o particular_a example_n that_o sin_n may_v be_v see_v in_o his_o voyage_n preserve_v by_o our_o industrious_a countryman_n mr._n purchas_n but_o it_o be_v high_a time_n for_o i_o to_o dismiss_v observation_n and_o go_v on_o with_o experiment_n experiment_n xii_o the_o way_n pyrophilus_n of_o produce_v whiteness_n by_o chemical_a praecipitation_n be_v very_o well_o worth_a our_o observe_n for_o thereby_o body_n of_o very_a differ_v colour_n as_o well_o as_o nature_n though_o dissolve_v in_o several_a liquor_n be_v all_o bring_v into_o calces_fw-la or_o powder_n that_o be_v white_a thus_o we_o find_v that_o not_o only_a crabs-eye_n that_o be_v of_o themselves_o white_a and_o pearl_n that_o be_v almost_o so_o but_o coral_n and_o minium_n that_o be_v red_a be_v dissolve_v in_o spirit_n of_o vinegar_n may_v be_v uniform_o precipitate_v by_o oil_n of_o tartar_n into_o white_a powder_n thus_o silver_n and_o tin_n separately_z dissolve_v in_o aqua_fw-la fortis_fw-la will_v the_o one_o praecipitate_v itself_o and_o the_o other_o be_v precipitate_v by_o common_a salt-water_n into_o a_o white_a calx_fw-la and_o so_o will_v crude_a lead_n and_o quicksilver_n first_o dissolve_v likewise_o in_o aqua_fw-la fortis_fw-la the_o like_a calx_fw-la will_v be_v afford_v as_o i_o have_v try_v by_o a_o solution_n of_o that_o shine_a mineral_n tinglass_n dissolve_v in_o aqua_fw-la fortis_fw-la and_o precipitate_v out_o of_o it_o and_o divers_a of_o these_o calces_fw-la may_v be_v make_v at_o least_o as_o fair_a and_o white_a if_o not_o better_a colour_a if_o instead_o of_o oil_n of_o tartar_n they_o be_v precipitate_v with_o oil_n of_o vitriol_n or_o with_o another_o liquor_n i_o can_v name_v nay_o that_o black_a mineral_n antimony_n itself_o be_v reduce_v by_o and_o with_o the_o salt_n that_o concur_v to_o the_o composition_n of_o common_a sublimate_n into_o that_o clear_a though_o unctuous_a liquor_n that_o chemist_n common_o call_v rectify_v butter_n of_o antimony_n will_v by_o the_o bare_a affusion_n of_o store_n of_o fair_a water_n be_v strike_v down_o into_o that_o snow-white_a powder_n which_o when_o the_o adhere_a saltness_n be_v well_o wash_v off_o chemist_n be_v please_v to_o call_v mercurius_n vitæ_fw-la though_o the_o like_a powder_n may_v be_v make_v of_o antimony_n without_o the_o addition_n of_o any_o mercury_n at_o all_o and_o this_o lactescence_n if_o i_o may_v so_o call_v it_o do_v also_o common_o ensue_v when_o spirit_n of_o wine_n be_v impregnate_v with_o those_o part_n of_o gum_n or_o other_o vegetable_a concretion_n that_o be_v suppose_v to_o abound_v with_o sulphureous_a corpuscle_n fair_a water_n be_v sudden_o pour_v upon_o the_o tincture_n or_o solution_n and_o i_o remember_v that_o very_o late_o i_o do_v for_o trial_n sake_n on_o a_o tincture_n of_o benjamin_n draw_v with_o spirit_n of_o wine_n and_o bring_v to_o be_v as_o red_a as_o blood_n pour_v some_o fair_a water_n which_o present_o mingle_v with_o the_o liquor_n immediate_o turn_v the_o whole_a mixture_n white_n but_o if_o such_o seem_v milks_n be_v suffer_v to_o stand_v unstirred_a for_o a_o convenient_a while_n they_o be_v wont_n to_o let_v fall_n to_o the_o bottom_n a_o resinous_n substance_n which_o the_o spirit_n of_o wine_n dilute_v and_o weaken_v by_o the_o water_n pour_v in_o it_o be_v unable_a to_o support_v any_o long_o and_o something_o of_o kin_n to_o this_o change_n of_o colour_n in_o vegetable_n be_v that_o which_o chemist_n be_v wont_a to_o observe_v upon_o the_o pour_v of_o acid_n spirit_n upon_o the_o red_a solution_n of_o sulphur_n dissolve_v in_o a_o infusion_n of_o pot-ash_n or_o in_o some_o other_o sharp_a lixivium_n the_o precipitate_v sulphur_n before_o it_o subside_v immediate_o turn_v the_o red_a liquor_n into_o a_o white_a one_o and_o other_o example_n may_v be_v add_v of_o this_o way_n of_o produce_v whiteness_n in_o body_n by_o praecipitate_v they_o out_o of_o the_o liquor_n wherein_o they_o have_v be_v dissolve_v but_o i_o think_v it_o may_v be_v more_o useful_a to_o admonish_v you_o pyrophilus_n that_o this_o observation_n admit_v of_o restriction_n and_o be_v not_o so_o universal_a as_o by_o this_o time_n perhaps_o you_o have_v begin_v to_o think_v it_o for_o though_o most_o precipitate_v body_n be_v white_a yet_o i_o know_v some_o that_o be_v not_o for_o gold_n dissolve_v in_o aqua_fw-la regis_fw-la whether_o you_o praecipitate_v it_o with_o oil_n of_o tartar_n or_o with_o spirit_n of_o sal_fw-la ammoniac_a will_v not_o afford_v a_o white_a but_o a_o yellow_a calx_fw-la mercury_n also_o though_o reduce_v into_o sublimate_n and_o precipitate_v with_o liquor_n abound_v with_o volatile_a salt_n as_o the_o spirit_n draw_v from_o urine_n hartshorn_n and_o other_o animal_n substance_n yet_o will_v afford_v as_o we_o note_a in_o our_o first_o experiment_n about_o whiteness_n and_o blackness_n a_o white_a praecipitate_v yet_o with_o the_o solution_n of_o pot-ash_n and_o other_o lixiviate_v salt_n it_o will_v let_v fall_v a_o orange-tawny_a powder_n and_o so_o will_v crude_a antimony_n if_o be_v dissolve_v in_o a_o strong_a lie_n you_o pour_v as_o far_o as_o i_o remember_v any_o acid_n liquor_n upon_o the_o solution_n new_o filtrate_v whilst_o it_o be_v yet_o warm_a and_o if_o upon_o the_o filtrated_a solution_n of_o vitriol_n you_o pour_v a_o
