The cloth is steeped in this mixture, and allowed to remain until it has acquired the proper shade. In Kaarta and Ludamar, where the indigo is not plentiful, they collect the leaves and dry them in the sun; and when they wish to use them they reduce a sufficient quantity to powder and mix it with the ley, as before mentioned.
One remembers his sonnet "To a Virtuous Young Lady," written about the same time as that to the Lady Margaret Ley, and wonders whether the "virgin wise and pure" there commemorated for her excellencies of mind and character was thought of by him as the possible successor of Mary Powell. Can her name have been Miss Davis?
Why buy ice, when watermelons and butter could be ley down into the well to keep cool? One of Willis' happiest moments was when he earned enough money to buy his first pair of patern leather shoes. To possess a paid of store bought shoes had been his ambition since he was a child, when he had to shine the shoes of his master and those of the master's children.
They make very good soap by boiling ground nuts in water, and then adding a ley of wood-ashes. They likewise manufacture excellent iron, which they carry to Bondou to barter for salt.

Thou hast mist the luckiest hand to scratch thy Coxcomb. Ley. No, no, Sir. Now for my part. Heigh! fight aloft for the head, boyes. How? Cater-trey ? Utr. Will you take a sleeve for your share, Sir?

Have at it: Stay, let me swing my Sword thrice round first: now, Now the Graves head ... goose giblitts.
Ashes sprinkled on a yard, or grass plat, will keep down the coarse grass, and produce white clover. The grass should be cut out of a brick pavement with a knife, and boiling ley poured on to kill the roots. Seeds should be saved as they ripen, from the finest plants; they should be kept in a box with a tight lid to keep them from mice. Greasers for Bake-irons.

Before morning the fire had got to a considerable distance, but we could still see a thin line of flame extending from north to south. After all, I believe that it was not so destructive as we had supposed.
Have fifteen pounds of clean fat to twenty gallons of clear strong ley; let it boil until thick, when put in half a peck of coarse salt; if it does not curdle in two hours, put in more salt till it does, then pour it out in a tub to cool till the next day, when put on your pot with some weak ley, cut the soap out of the tub and boil it in this an hour, then put it in the tub, let it get cold, cut it in squares and put it on a board to dry.
