Silk
(Crimson).
Take
about
a
spoonful
of
cudbear,
put
it
into
a
small
pan,
pour
boiling
water
upon

stir
and
let
it
stand
a
few
minutes,
then
put
in
the
silk,
and
turn
it
over
in
a
short
time,
and
when
the
colour
is
full
enough,
take
it
out;
but
if
it
should
require
more
violet
or
crimson,
add
a
spoonful
or
two
of
purple
archil
to
some
warm
water;
steep,
and
dry
it
within
doors.
It
must
be

then
let
