MARIES FURNACE
MARY HER FURNACE is a thinge to fix
any pouderin by pitting the pouder in the
Sorket and pouringe continually the sprite
of wine yron and sol (?) yt a fire that yt maye
burne theron continually till yt com to a red
pouder which wilbe som tymes a day somtimes
2 or 3 dais firste over stirringe yt is a
long wyer and over pouring fresh and fresh
sprite of wine or Ardant water theron and
never let the fier out.. And a man in my
opinion may astoell do it in a flat silver
Bole..but any glasse or earthen wesselle
will breke __ the fier and yeate(?)
the form of mary her furnace
the socket
Into this they
pour the sprite
of wine andachtsbiset yt higher
then the socket
that the sprite
of wine may kon
into the sockete
to mantaine
the fier
The socket was mad of gould like the
nose of a candelstrike and into the socket
they put the pouder and the sprit of wine
on yt and set yt on fier and so let it burne
The brodent and the c/hollowe gutter or
halste was made of silver/ and her in
