and much more, wlien therp-we^re isiaiiy of tk^fe gr^^t 
partis together, in a little Ipace. 
I put Muieovy Poi: JJpes m ram water, and aft^r X 
had let it ftand for fome few hours, I obferved in it long^ 
ifti figures, very like Weavers fmall Shuttles^ as Numb. /• 
Fig. A. Thefe particles were fb fmall, that I judged 
them, to beathoufand times thinner then a hair of my

Fig. E.

at one time a clear Chriftalline water, would after a few 
minutes, be a great number of the above mentioned
