220 PHYSIOLOGICAL REMAINS. 



The trial being made betwixt silver and silver, 

 weighing severally seven drams in the air, the balance 

 in the water weigheth only four drams and twenty- 

 five grains. So it abateth two drams and thirty-five 

 grains ; the same depth in the water observed. 



In iron and iron, weighing severally each balance 

 in the air seven drams, the balance in the water 

 weigheth only four drains and eighteen grains ; and 

 abateth of the weight in the air two drams and forty- 

 two grains ; the depth observe as above. 



In stone and stone, the same weight of seven 

 drams equally in the air, the balance in the water 

 weigheth only two drams and twenty-two grains ; 

 and abateth of the weight in the air four drams and 

 thirty-eight grains ; the depth as above. 



In brass and brass, the same weight of seven drams 

 in each balance, equal in the air, the balance in the 

 water weigheth only four drams and twenty-two 

 grains; and abateth in the water two drams and 

 thirty-eight grains ; the depth observed. 



The two balances being weighed in air and water* 

 the balance in the air over-weigheth the other in the 

 water one dram and twenty-eight grains ; the depth 

 in the water as aforesaid. 



It is a profitable experiment which sheweth the 

 weights of several bodies in comparison with water. 

 It is of use in lading of ships, and other bottoms, and 

 may help to shew what burden in the several kinds 

 they will bear.
