Waiecs, in the Noife they make as they run, reprefent to the Eare a 
Trembling Noife j And in Regalls , (where they haue a Pipe , they call the 
Nightingale-Pipe, which containcrh. water) the Sound hatha continual! 
Trembling : And Children haue affo little Things they call Cooks, which 
haue Water in them • And when they blow., or whiffle in them, they vec'ld 
^Trembling Noije • Which Trembling of Water, hath an affinity with the 
Letter L. All which Inequalities ok Trepidation, are rather pleafant, than 
other wife. 
All Bafe Notes , or very Treble Notes, giue an Afper Sound $ For that the 
Ba/e hriketh more -Aire, than it can well ftrike equally: And the Trebles 
cutteth the Aire fo fharpe, as it returneth too fwift, to make the SonndW-
