flicking fome into the ground over Avhich the water paffech, 
that part, which was in the ground, retained its own colour,

The Baths of Boinitz nigh the river Nitra in Hungary, are of 
a moderat gentle heat, delightful to bath in, much beautifiM 
by Count Palfi Palatine of Hungary : And all of them covered 
under one large roof. The firft is the Noblemens Bath^ buiit of 
ftonc defcended into on all fides by ftone-ftayres. Four more 
there are of Wood;, but veryhandfomly and well built. 
At Stub'nj I Hungarian miles from Ncwfol and 2 from chrem^ 
mtz^ near to a rivolet^ are divers Baths of great efteem, and / 
much frequented the water whereof is clear, and fmells of 
Sulphur^ the fediment green. It colours the wood over it 
green and black, but does not change the colour of metals fo 
foon as moft others. I left money in it a whole nighr, which 
was yet but faintly coloured. The Springs arife under- neath, 
and pafs thorough.the holes in the plancher oi the Baths. The 
heat thereof is anfwerable to t^ e Kings- Bath mEnghnd, Thefe

G las-Hitter ^ an Hungarian mile, or about 7. Englifli- miles 
from Schemnitz, hath five Baths 5 two of which are large. Ic 
depofes a red fediment , and inciuftates the wcod and ieates of

is called the 5tt?^4?/;^^^ Bath, whofe hot springs drain thorough 
an hill, and fall into a Bath, built to receive them ^ at one 
end ot which, by afcending, 1 went into a CavC;, which is made
