tle it after a night working.

3. _Strong_. Take ten Gallons of water; thirteen quarts of honey, with
Angelica, Borrage and Bugloss, Rosemary, Balm and Sweet-bryar; pour it into
a barrel, upon three spoonfuls of yest; hang in a bag Cloves,
Elder-flowers, and a little Ginger.

4. _Very Strong_. Take ten Gallons of Water, and four of honey, with
Sea-worm-wood, a little Sage, Rosemary; put it in a barrel, after three
days cooling. Put no yest to it. Stop it close, and bottle it after three
or four months.

5. _Very Strong_. To ten Gallons of water take four of honey. Clarifie it
with flower; and put into it Angelica, Rosemary, Bay-leaves, Balm. Barrel
it without yest. Hang in a bag Cloves, Elder-flowers, a little Ginger.

6. _Very Strong_. Take ten Gallons of water, and four of Honey. Boil
nothing in it. Barrel it when cold, without yest. Hang in it a bag with
Cloves, Elder-flowers, a little Ginger and Limon peel; which throw away,
when it hath done working, and stop it close. You may make also strong and
small by putting into it Orris-roots; or with Rose-mary, Betony, Eye-bright
and Wood-sorrel; or adding to it the tops of Hypericon with the flowers of
it; Sweet-bryar, Lilly of the valley.

TO MAKE MEATH

Take three Gallons of water, a quart of Honey; if it be not strong enough,
you may adde more. Boil it apace an hour, and scum it very clean. Then take
it off, and set it a working at such heat as you set Beer, with good yest.
Then put it in a Runlet, and at three days end, draw it out in
stone-bottles; into everyone put a piece of Limon-peel and two Cloves. It
is only put into the Runlet, whilest it worketh, to avoid the breaking of
the Bottles.

SIR JOHN ARUNDEL'S WHITE MEATH

Take three Gallons of Honey, and twelve Gallons of water: mix the honey and
water very well together, till the honey is dissolved; so let it stand
twelve hours. Then put in a New-laid-egg; if the Liquor beareth the Egg,
that you see the breadth of a groat upon the Egg dry, you may set it over
the fire: if it doth not bear the Egg, then you must adde a quart or three
pints more to the rest; and then set it over the fire, and let it boil
gently, till you have skimed it very clean, and clarified it, as you would
do Suggar, with the whites of three New-laid-eggs. When it is thus made
clear from all scum, let it boil a full hour or more, till the fourth part
of it is wasted; then take it off the fire; and let it stand till the next
day. Th
