fmall Globules : Examining this Cinnahar when cold, \ 
found therein feveral fix-fiided Figures, fuch as is re- 
prefented N°. u A, of which (bme were very regular, 
others not ; they, were of different fizes, fome of the 
bignels of a finall Sand, others an hundred times left • 
fome were of the Fig. B. lhaped like an Equilateral Tri- 
angle with the Three Points cut off I never found any 
of thefe Figures in the Cinnahar, till it had been expo- 
fed to a ftrong Fire, which feparated them from it, not- 
withftanding which it ft ill retained its red Colour, only 
was fbmewhat browner. 
Some part of the Cinnahar that lay next to the fire 
appeared as C D ; fome Particles alfo were like £, o- 
thers like T 7 , and fome with feveral Points and folid 
Angles, as 6 H. Befides thefe Figures, there was. a 
blackifh matter, which like Smoak had been feparated 
from the Cinnahar, where I found a great number of 
exceeding fmall Globules of Qnickfilver, and admired at 
the great quantity thereof contained in the Cinnahar i 
Amongfl theft Globules lay fome, whichl judged to be 
Salt Particles ; but for their extreme mioutenefel could 
not difcern their Figure. 
When I burnt the Cinnahar in the open Air, there 
arofe a Flame very like that of BrimHone ; but upon 
examination I could not find that the inflammable parts 
thereof were true Brim/lone. Then I caufed the Flow- 
ers of Brimftone to arife, which I viewed, and found, 
amongfl. feveral irregular parts, fome Globules tranfpa- 
rent like Oil ; and the higher they rofe from the Fire,the 
(mailer were thefe Globules, till in the end they became 
undiftinguifhable.; The Volatile parts of Cinnahar could 
not be driven very high, tho' with a great Fire, where- 
as thole of Brimftone were railed much higher with a 
fmail Heat. I obferved in the Brimfione feveral Salt- 
Particles, conftituted, as I guefs'd, of many fmall uni- 
ted Globules. For I fuppofe they were railed in a round
