XI. the eleventh way. Having formed them of the
matter intended,bored and dryed them > put them into
Quicksilver, set over a glowing heat, surring them
well about, that the Quicksilver may slick to them ;
then dip them into glair of eggs5upon a glowing heat,
and they are done : or being dry, boil them in Lin-
seed oil, and wash them in warm water.
XII. Ike twelsth way. Take pearl three ounces,pre-
pared Salt one ounce, siltrated juice of Limons,so
much as will cover them four fingers breadth : let it
stand so long till it be a paste > the glass being very closc
ssopped, make all together five or six times a day} and
when it comes to a paste put it into a glass with strong
spiritof Vinegar, lute another glass over it i digest it
three weeks in a cool place under the earth, so long
till all be dissolved,then mix it with a little oil of eggs,
or snail water, till it be like pearl in colour-, then put
this paste into silver moulds and close them up for eight
days h after which take them out, and bore them by
the first Section, and put them again into the mould
for eight days =, this done, boil them in a silver porrin-
ger with milk j lastly,dry them upon a plate,in a warm
place, where neither wind nor dust may come, and
they will be much fairer then any oriental pearl.
XIII. The thirteenth way. After the preparation of
the matter in juice ofLimons, or Aqua fortis, with
clean hands make them into paste, and wash them in
< distilled water, which put into edulcorate calx os sil-
ver,and digest in Horse-dung for a month, so will they
be fair any very oriental.
XIV. The sourteenth way. Distblve the matter in
Aqua sorm ( which let over-top it a fingers breadth)
in a glass gourd, till all be incorporated into one bo-
dy, which put into silver moulds, which have holes
through th£m,a.nd having slood one day, bore them
