and thereafter press it out again through the other pipe. But in the other hole in the block, designated with D., one must again make a valve or falling plate, which opens and closes against the pipe F.; for when one pulls up the small pump rod, or pump piston G., the lower valve opens, and the water is drawn into the pipe E., and the other valve or plate closes against it, so that no air can come down through the pipe F. But when one presses the pump piston, or small rod, back in, the lower valve or plate closes, and the water lifts the other valve D. and presses itself out through the pipe F. to where one wishes to have it. However, so that the water is forced with more pressure and sprays further out, one attaches to the top of the pipe F. a small pipe made of sheet metal, which is somewhat wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, as is marked with H. And with this syringe, one can quickly spray over a large spot in a garden or a large area of bleaching linen with little effort, and one simply places this syringe into a water barrel or water ditch, and uses it however one wishes and wherever one directs it.
