on here, That I found a dry lambs-bladder

containing near about two thirds of a pint,

and compreſſ'd by a packthred tyed about
<
lb

it, to looſe a grain and the eighth part of

lb

a grain of its former weight, by the receſs
<
lb

of the Air upon my having prickt it: And
<
lb

this with a pair of Scales, which when the
<
lb

full Bladder and the correſpondent weight
<

were in it, would manifeſtly turn either

way with the 32 part of a grain. </

it be further objected, That the Air in

the Bladder was violently compreſſ'd by

the Pack-thred and the ſides of the
<
lb

Bladder, we might probably (to wave

prolix anſwers) be furniſh'd with a Re

ply, by ſetting down the differing weight

of our Receiver, when empty'd and when

full of uncompreſſ'd Air, if we could here

procure ſcales fit for ſo nice an experiment; </
