How to make musk-sugar from common-sugar

Bruise 4 or 6 graines of Muske: place tham in a piece of sarcenet, fine* Lawn
or Cambrick doubled: lay this in the bottom of a gally pot, strewing your
sugar thereon: stop your pot close, and all the Sugar in a few daies will both
sent and taste of Muske: and you may lay more sugar theron, when you have
spent that sugar, which will also receive the like impression. Such Muske-
sugar is sold for two shillings the pound.

*I am guessing that this work is "fine" --  my copy is not perfect and the
word is partially obliterated.

Too bad Sir Hugh doesn't mention what one does with Muske-sugar once one has
made or bought it.
