Odour of the Spirit of Wine 5 is oft- 

 en rnanifeftly changed by a well* 

 made Diftillation from Quick- lime $ 

 Ihavefometimes found that Liquor 

 to give the Lime a kind of Alcalizat 

 pecietrancy 5 not to fay fierinefs of 

 Tafte D that was very brisk and re- 

 markable. But I will not undertake, ~ 

 that every Experimenter^ nor I my 

 felf, (hall always make trials of this 

 kind with the fame fuccefs that I had 

 in thofe above recited 5 in regard 

 that I have found QuickTimes to 

 differ much, not onely according to 

 the degree of their Calcination^ and 

 to their Recentnefs 5 but alio, and 

 thatefpecialiy, according to the dif- 

 fering natures of the (tones and o- 

 ther bodies calcined. Which Ob- 

 fervation engages me the more to 

 propofe what hath been hitherto ^de- 

 liver d about Quick-lime, as onely 

 Narratives and a Corije&ure 5 which 

 I now perceive has detain'd usfo long, 

 that I am obliged to haften to the re- 

 maining Experiments, and to be the
