"This appear'd fo me at firft foraething ftrange^ bwt 
’ when I confidered that the Particles of Sugar fof which 
fome of ihetn are a great many Thoufand times fmalicr, 
yea fo fmall, that they efcape the fight thro’ a Microf- 
cope) do not appear to the Eye in the fame pofition, 
nor that the Wedges thereof are reprefenced as in 
Fig. I. by B. C or G. F. but that on the contrary, 
the fide which is deferibed in the faid Figure, by C. D. E. 
F. 1. K. lies fometime i^per, or undermoft^ then it is no 
wonder if the fame Particle of Sugar Candy (hall appear 
; to the Eye as in Fig. 4. A. B. C. D. E. F. 
In that Particle of Sugar beforemention’d, I obferved 
feveral Streaks or Fibres that were internal, and which 
by reafon of the Tranfparency of the Sugar appear’d 
plainly to the Eye, as^ you may fee in the faid F'g. 4. be- 
tween D and C. and D. and E. and fo alfo from the 
Center of the Sugar where thofe Screaks extended on each 
■fide to B and F. 
From this Obfervation I concluded, that the Sugar in- 
= creafed from time to time, in proportion to the fpaces 
between each Streak cr Fibre. 
I likewife faw a few coagulated Sugar Particles, that 
appear'd in as compleat quadrilateral Figures as I ever be- 
. held with my Eyes, one of which you have deferib’d by 
Fig. 5. G. H. I. K. and withal as clear and tranfparent as 
any Diamond 3 you muft alfo obferve that thefe Figures 
5, 4, 5. were none of *em bigger than a fmall Grain of 
Sand* The reafon why there were fb many Particles of 
Sugar, that had but one part of Fig, was, as I fuppofe, 
■ that they were Coagulated with others that lay near them 
of the like figure, infomucii that they hinder’d one ano- 
ther in their Coagulation 3 but when they lye fo far from 
one another, that there is no adual Contaft of the Parts, 
and yet are Coagulated, we can attribute that effeft to 
nothing elfe but a fecret Inclination which the invifible 
;Parta of the Sugar bear to each other.
