the water forced out through a Tube , which turning eve- 
ry way at the end of it, is thereby fitted to direft the Jet of the wa- 
ter to the places where the fire is to be extinguiflied. That which 
is iBoft peculiar in this Engin, is. That the Courfe of tfie water, 
iffuingoutof the Tube that darts it , is continued, not being in- 
terrupted , even when the cotnpreffion of the Pun^p's Sucker 
ceafes, that is, at the time when you raife it again: For, this af- 
fords a great eafinefs to dired the water well where )ou wouid 
have it. 
TheEnginisaCheft of Copper, marked A, tranfportable by 
means of wooddenbarrs like a Sedan or Chair. This Cheft is pier- 
ced with many holes above, BB, and holds within it the Body of a 
Pump EFM, whofe Sucker DE is raifed and abafed by two Levers 
CO; thefe Levers having each of them two arms, and each arm 
being fitted to be laid hold on by both hands of a man. Each 
Lever is pierced in the middle by a Mor raife, ^ in which an i- 
ron-nail, which paflTes through the handle of the Sucker,turns round 
when that Sucker is raifed or lower'd. Near the body of the Pump 
there is a Copper- pot, I HK, joined to it by the Tube G,and having 
another Tube KNL, which in N may be turned every way. 
To make this Engln play, water is po^vred upon the Chcft,to enter 
it! at the holes that are in the Cover thereof. This water is drawn 
into this body of the Puinp at the hole at the time when the 
Sucker is raifed; and when the fame is let down, the Valve of 
the fame hole F fhuts, ^nd forces the water to pafs through the 
hole M into the Tube G, of which the Valve H being lifted up^ 
the water enters into the Pot, and filling the bottom, it enters 
through the hole K into the Tube KNL, in fuch a manner , that 
when the water is higher than the Tube KNL, and the hole of the 
Tube G is fl}ut by the Valve H, the Air inclofed in the Pot bath no 
iflTue, and it comes to pafs, that, when you contiwie to make the 
water enter into the Pot by the Tube G, which is much thicker 
than the aperture of the end L, at which itmuft iflue,itmuft needs 
be, that the furplus of the water tbaf euHvs into the Pot , ind ex- 
ceeds that which at the fametime ilTues through the fmall end of 
the Jet, fcotnpreflfcs thie Air to fiod place in t he Pm : which makes,^ 
iha'5 whilft the Sucker is raiftdagain to make new water tio enter 
into the body of the Pump, the Air which ba^ been comprefled 
in the Pot , drives the furplus of the wearer by the force of its 
fpring^ mean time that a new compreffiqn of the Sncker makes 
new water to enter , and caufes a!fo^ a new compreffion of Air.
