CATOPTRICK PAINT, on a Table or Board. Given by Bishop Wilkins. On one side, the Paint looks as if it were altogether rude and irregular, so as nothing can be made of it. But a Metalline Cylinder being placed perpendicular upon a certain Point of the Table; the Rays are in such sort incident thereon, and thence reflected to the Eye, as to represent a variety of curious Work: sc. a Shepherd playing on a Pipe; and his Wife dancing with a Child in her Arms, and a Basket on her Head.

On the other side, St. George and Don Quicksot both on Horse-back, and a Wind-Mill betwixt them. And Don having made his Horse leap at the Sail, his Horse hangs upon it, and himself is thrown to the ground. But a Metalline Octogon, placed as the Cylinder, shews St. George in good posture upon Don's Horse, killing the Dragon.
