TRILLO, in Geography, a village of Spain, fituated on 

 a fmall river near its union with the Tagus, and once famous 

 for its curious water-mills, for fawing of timber brought 

 down by the ftream, but no longer exifting. It is now ce- 

 lebrated for its medicinal waters, efficacious in cutaneous 

 complaints, both externally and internally applied. The 

 baths are up the river, on the oppofite fide of the Tagus, 

 about the diftance of a mile. They are divided into " Los 

 quatro Banos," called the king's bath, divided into four 

 feparate baths, all equally commodious and handfome, with 

 their proper appurtenances. The countefs's bath, fo named 

 after the lady of the count de Cifuentes, who is lord of the 

 place, is clofe to the river, but judicioufly built and remark- 

 ably folid, to refilt every impulfe of the ftream. Accord- 

 ing to the analyfis of Dr. Ortega, thefe waters participate 

 of five fubftances, two volatile, and three fixed : •viz.. a 

 phlogiftic vapour, extremely anodyne, penetrating, and 

 friendly to the nervous fyftem ; of a moderate quantity of 

 gas, calcareous earth, common fait, felenitic fait ; and that 

 to fixteen ounces of water, one may calculate twenty-five 

 grains and a half of fixed principle. Dr. Ortega obferves, 

 that the lightnefs of this water may enter into competition 

 with that of diftiUed water, the pureft we know of: there- 

 fore its effefts may be more eafily accounted for : that the 

 heat of the water does not equal that of the blood, in a per- 

 fon in good health, and comes near to that tepid deg-ree 

 prefcribed by the phyficians in artificial baths. 



Trillo, Ital. a fhake, in Mujtc. ToC has devoted his 

 third chaptei (in Galliard's Tranfiation, p. 41.) to the im- 

 portance, ule, and acquifition of a (hake. He advifes the 

 vocal ftudent, with the afliftance of the mafter, to ftrive at 

 attaining one that is " equal, diftinftly marked, eafy, and 

 moderately quick, which are its moft beautiful qualifica- 

 tions." The ftudent will find the fhake on the femitone or 

 half-note much eafier to acquire than that on the whole 

 tone ; which it will be neceffary to praftife firft, and moft 

 frequently ever, as it includes the other. Tofi defcribes 

 feven different kinds of fhake, but none are worth the ftudy 

 but thofe on the tone and half-tone, which muft at firft be 

 praftifed (low, and its rapidity increafed by minute degrees. 



The beat, or trillo mordente, differs little from the (hake ; 

 in faft it is the fhake reverfed, ending upon the upper of 

 two notes, inftead of the lower. This grace was much 

 ufed by fingers in the former part of the laft century, par- 

 ticularly in recitatives, and after the appoggiatura from the 

 note below. Mingotti was the laft great finger whom we 

 remember to have frequently ufed the tr'iHo mordente, or beat. 

 Mancini, however, gave a chapter to it in 1774. But he 

 was of the Bernacchi fchool, which would now be called 

 antica.

TRILOKAN, in Mythology, a name of the Hindoo 

 deity Siva. The name means with three eyes, that god 

 being in fome of his forms, and often in piftures and ftatues, 

 fo reprefented. Siva correfponds in many points with the 

 many-named and multiform Jupiter of the Greeks. We 

 are informed by Paufaijias, that Triopthalmos was an epi- 

 thet of Zeus, and that a ftatue of him with three eyes was 

 found fo early as the Trojan war. From thefe circum- 

 ilances, combined with many others, fir W. Jones was led 



to conclude that the identity of Jove and Siva, falls little 

 fhort of being demonftrated. See Siva

TRIM, in Caipentry, is to fit one piece into another. 



Trim of a Ship, is her beft pofture, proportion of ballaft, 

 arrangement of her fails, and pofition of her mafts for 

 faihng. 



Thus, the trim of the hold denotes the moft convenient 

 arrangement of the various materials contained in it, with 

 relation to the fhip's motion or ftabihty at fea. 



Trim, when applied to the fails, denotes the general ar- 

 rangement which is beft calculated to accelerate the fhip's 

 courfe, according to the direction of the wind. 



Trim, when expreffed of the mafts, denotes their pofition 

 with regard to the fhip and to each other, fo that they 

 fhould not be too far forward or aft, nor too near nor too 

 far apart : and, according to the fituation or quality which 

 communicates a greater velocity to the veffel, they fhould 

 either be upright, or incUning aft or forward. 



Hence, to find the beft way of making a fhip fail fwiftly, 

 is to find her trim.
