_Of Water-Mills for Grinding of Corn._
[Sidenote: _Lib. 10. Chap. 10._]
_Water-Mills_ were moved by the help of a great VVheel which had many
VVings, which were forced by the Current. The Axle-tree of this great
VVheel, traversed another VVheel which had Cogs, which made the
_Lanterne_ or _Trundle-head_ go, which was placed Horizontally, which
was traversed by a Beam of Iron, which entred through above, into an
Iron in form of a VVedge, which helped to fasten the Beam in the
Mill-stone, above which was the Mill-Hopper, in form of a Funnel.
