draw off as you would any other Charge as long as the Spirit extracted
is of a sufficient Strength; after which the Receiver is to be removed,
and the Faints saved by themselves as before.
The Spirits thus extracted from the Faints will serve in several
Compositions as well as fresh; but they are generally used in Aniseed
Water, because the predominant Taste of the Aniseeds will entirely
cover that they had before acquired from other Ingredients.
