Chapter XXXIII

OF EVERY SORT OF GLUE FOR A PICTURE OF GOLD.

If you have not a bladder (of the sturgeon), cut up thick parchment or
vellum in the same manner,--wash and cook it. Prepare also the skin of an
eel carefully scraped, cut up and washed in the same manner. Prepare thus
also the bones of the head of the wolf-fish washed and dried, carefully
washed in water three times. To whichever of these you have prepared, add
a third part of very transparent gum, simmer it a little, and you can
keep it as long as you wish.
