ttr»\ whence is extra&ed ftore of Jguirifiher] there is a per- 
petual fpring of Hot Water and that not only it is a com- 
mon complaint there, that the cataiadts and fences of the Mil- 
lers (whereby the water, neceffary to drive the Mills, is kept 
in, that it may be fufficient for the work) are piercd through 
by Mercury, at times thrown in by malicious perfons, to the 
great detriment of the Water and Mills but alfo that 'tis 
notorious, thatinfome places there are deep under- ground 
Stoves and Pitts, which, when all others are frozen, fteam out 
of their midft a tepid fume-, the inward Bowels of the Earth

, II. An IDEA of the perfection of PAINTING: m\ 
ginall) mitten in French by Roland Freart Sieur de 
Cambray , and rendred Englifli by J, Evelyn Ef- 
quire, Fellow of theR. Society. 
THis excellent idea, very lately come out of the London- 
Prefs, in thin 80, is drawn in that manner, as that 'tis de- 
monftrated from the Principles of Art^zwd by Examples con- 
formable to the obfervationSjwhich Pliny and J%uintilian>hwQ 
made upon the mofl celebrated Pieces of the Antient 
PAINTERS 5 paralleled with fome works of themoft famous 
Modern Painters, LEONARDO da VINCI, RAPHAEL 
URBINOJULIO ROM ANO,andN.POUSSIR 
Thofe Principles of Art, conftantly obferv'd by the Anti- 
ems in their Works, are here enumerated to be five: i . Inven- 
tion, vt the Hi (lory, 2, Proportion, or Symmetry [. 3. Colour, 
(wherein is alfo contained the juft difpenfation of the Lights 
and Shades, ) 4, Motion , in which are exprefs'd the Acti- 
ons and Pafsions. 5. The regular Pofuion of the Figures of the 
whole Work. Of which the Invention and Expreflion are 
more Spiritual 'and refned; the Proportion, Colouring, and Per- 
fective the more Mechanical part of this Art.. 
The Works, made ufe of among thofe of our moft emi- 
nent Painters, for applying thofe Principles unto, are i.the 
judgment of Paris. 2. The Maffacre of the Inwcents* 
J. Our Lords defcent from the Crofi, all three by Raphael,
