Cut a pound of mottled soap into thin slices; and put it into a

pan with a quarter of an ounce of pot-ash. Pour a pail of boiling

water on it, and let it stand till dissolved. Then pour hot and

cold water into a scouring tub, with a bowl of the solution. Put

in the counterpane, beat it well, turn it often, give it a second

liquor as before, and then rinse it in cold water. Then put three

tea-spoonsful of liquid blue into a thin liquor; stir it, and put in

the counterpane: beat it about five minutes, and dry it in the air.
