you have dyed with it; after which time you may dye with it
again, adding a fufncient quantity of lime, if you ufe it often, al-
ways letting it ftand two hours, and then adding lime and ftir-
ring it.

Hzzu to prepare the Indigo dye for the ley, in conjunction with
the Provence blue, and make it lajlingfor Jiujfs, ftlks, woollen, and
irien. If the ware is to have a deep dye, you muft firft pre-
pare it in tartar and vitriol ; but, if of a light dye, in alum and
tartar.

Boil three pounds of brown wood in a bag, in a kettle of water,
for half an hour; then take it out and dry it, and let the dye grow
cool enough for you to bear your hand in it; then make ufe of
vour Indigo and afhes, as in the direction for the blue dye, with
all the reft of the ufeiul and remedying drugs, from beginning to
the end, as there directed.

When the blue dye has flood twenty-four hours, and the In-
digo has come to its perfect ftrength, and begins to be blue, firft
dve what you would have of a deep blue, and the lightefr. laft ;
and, having worked the dye half an hour, let it reft for an hour,
and fo on as long as you work it.

If the ley be too weak, you may ftrengthen it at pleafure.

INDOCI.BILITY, is reprefented, in painting, &c. by a wo-
man of a ruddy complexion, lying all along, holding an afs by
the bridle, the bit in his mouth, in one hand, and leans her el-
bow of the right arm upon an hog on the ground, a black hood
on her head.—On the ground figuifjes her Indocility, not being
able to rife higher, but itands frill ; her ignorance is imitated by
the afs. The hog denotes infenhbility and ftupidity, never be-
ing good till dead. The hood intimates, that black never takes
any other colour.

INGENUITY, is reprefented, in painting, &c. by a young
fpark of a vehement daring afpect; with a helmet, whofe creft
is an eagle's wings of divers colours on his fhoulders, with a
bow and arrow, as if he would let fly.—This youth fhews that
the intellect never grows old ; his afpect, ftrength and vigour ;
the eagle, generofity and loftinefs; the bow and arrow, inquifi-
tivenefs and acutenefs.

INJUSTICE, is reprefented, in painting, Sec. by a man in
a white garment full of fpots ; a fword in one hand, and a globe
in the other ; the tables of the law all broken to pieces on the
ground ; blind of the right eye; trampling on the balance. The
garment denotes Injuftice to be the corruption and ftain of the
mind ; the laws broken, the non-obfervance of them, being de-
fpifed by malefactors ; and due weighing of matters neglected
is intimated by the balance. The blind eye fhews that he fees
only with the left, that is, what is for his own intereft.
