a Cavity, but found them encreale to fo great a bignefs, 
(by that time the Wine had flood 24 hours, uncovered

Numb, 3 Fig* A, I faw alfo fome T^^^r^j-, which had no 
ftarp points, but were round ifti at the ends, as Fig. B. 
There were alfo feverall figures, which grew tapering at 
one end, and at the other were round, as Fig. C Alfo fom©

are not other wife to be feparated, then by fettingthe 
Wine to ferment ; for thereby it prefently loofes of its 
Sweetnefs, and in timc^is changed from a grateful! Wine, 
to a four Vinegar > From hence I gather, that the plea-
