Crimson Red In Grain









Boil your hackles or hair in a quarter of an ounce of alum, and the same
quantity of pure tartar, an hour gently; wash them out of this, fill
your dye-pot with clean water, or as much as will conveniently boil; put
in an ounce of well-powdered dye stuff they call "grain," with one
drachm of red arsenic, and one spoonful of burnt wine lees, this gives a
lustre; wash and rinse well after boiling a short time, and the colour
is good.
