Let the hems of the tiffanies be at first only a little soaped, then
having a lather of soap, put them into it hot, and wash them very
gently for fear they should be crumpled; and when they are clean,
rinse them in warm water, in which a little gum arabic has been
dissolved, keeping them from the air as much as possible; then add
a lump of starch, wet the tiffanies with a soft linen rag, and fold
them up in a clean cloth, pressing them till they are near dry; after
which put them near the fire, and finish the drying over brimstone;
then shape them properly by gently ironing them.
