Drink
.
Eight
Handfuls

Gallons
,
are
sufficient
:
It
is
used
also
outwardly
in
Baths
and

.
There
is
a
Pouder
likewise
made
of
it
,
which
is
done
by
drying
the
Leaves
,
to
prevent
involuntary
Urin
;
half
a
Dram
of
it
in
the
Conserve
of
Roses
being
to
be
taken
going
to

by
some
called

Stoppages
of
the
Liver

expels
the
After-Birth
;
it
breaks

provokes
Urin
,
helpeth
the
Strangury
,
if
the
Leaves
be
boiled
in
Wine
,
and
drank
Two
Ounces
at
a

Amber
,
a
volatil
Salt
:
Take
of
Amber
Two
Pound
,
let
it
be
finely
bruised
and
reduced
to
Powder
,
and
put
it
into
an
earthen
Cucurbit
,
or
Glass
,
so
that
Three
quarters
of
the
Cucurbit
may
be
empty
,
then
set
it
in
Sand
,
fitting
the
Head
to
it
,
and
a
small
Recipient
;
and
when
the
Junctures
are
well
luted
,
put
a
moderate
Fire
under
it
for
the
space
of
an
Hour
;
then
the
Cucurbit
being
hot
,
encrease
the
Fire
by
degrees
to
a
third
degree
hotter
than
at
first
,
and
so
you
will
find
a
Flegm
and
Spirit
,
and
after
them
a
volatil
Salt
,
which
in
little
Crystals
will
fasten
to
the
Head
,
and
afterward
an
Oil
will
distil
,
but
from
White
changing
to
Red
,
it
will
continue
clear
however
;
and
when
you
perceive
no
Vapours
to
rise
,
extinguish
the
Fire
;
and
so
suffering
the
Vessels
to
cool
,
unlute
them
,
and
with
a
Feather
gather
the
volatil
Salt
into
a
convenient
Vessel
;
and
although
as
yet
it
will
remain
unpure
,
by
reason
of
the
small
quantity
of
Oil
that
is
found
to
be
mixed
with
it
,
you
must
have
a
Viol
sufficiently
large
that
a
Fourth
only
may
be
filled
with
the
volatil
Salt
,
and
stopping
it
only
with
Paper
,
place
it
in
Sand
,
and
sublime
it
with
a
gentle
Fire
,
so
that
the
pure
Salt
will
appear
in
Crystal
very
fair
at
the
top
of
the
Viol
;
and
when
you
perceive
the
Oil
begins
to
rise
,
then
raise
the
Glass
from
off
the
Fire
,
and
having
suffer'd
it
to
cool
,
break
it
to
separate
the
Salt
;
and
here
finding
at
least
half
an
Ounce
,
keep
it
in
a
Viol
well
stopped
for
use
,
and
it
will
prove
very
excellent
.

Bucks-Horn
:
This
is
a
small
Plant

Herb
growing
in
barren
and
sandy
Grounds
,
and
comes
up
with
some
of
its
Leaves
jagged
or
sprouting
out
at
the
sides
,
like
the
Horns
of
a
Buck
,
from
which
Allusion
,
I
suppose
,
it
takes
its
Name
.
This
is
a
kind
of
Plantane
different
from
some
others
,
and
has
a
quality

Leaves
outwardly
applied
,
ease
the
Pains
,
and
remedy
the
Bitings

most
venemous
Creatures

the

helpeth

in
the
Kidneys

Bladder
,

Reins

Bur
of
the
Meadow
:
This
Herb
,
or
Plant
,
grows
in
wet
places
,
most
commonly
by
Rivers
and
Ditch-sides
in
Meadows
&
Marshy-grounds
,
flowering
very
early
,
so
that
they
decay
in
February

March

the
Leaves
appear
,
which
put
not
out

The
Sun
claims
an
extraordinary
Influence
over
this

therefore
,
as
all
other
Herbs
under
the
Solar
Government
,
it
is
a
great
strengthener
of
the
Heart
,
cheating
the
Vital
Spirits
.
The
Roots
are
good
against
the
Plague
,
and
Pestilential
Fevers
,
by
provoking
Sweat
,
if
they
be
powder'd
,
and
taken
in
a
glass
of
Whitewine
.
They
likewise
greatly
resist
Poyson
:
being
taken
with
the
Powders
of
Angelica
and
Zedoary
,
they
prevent
the
Rising
of
the
Mother
.
The
Roots
boiled
in
Wine
,
are
good
for
those
that
are
troubled
with
Shortness
of
Breath
.

Cassia
,
its
Vertues
.
It
's
Loosening
,
and
a
Purifier
of
the
Blood
;

allays
Heat
,
and
moderately
loosens
the

and
Phlegm
,
and
mollifies

burn
in
an
Iron
or
Marble
Mortar

heated
;

into
a
Powder
,
and
put

into
a
convenient
Vessel
.
Let

,
by
dropping
,
dissolve
in
a
moist
place
;
and
preserve
the
Liquor
that
falls
in
a
thick
Glass
or
glazed
earthen
Pot.
This
Liquor
is
highly
approved
for
consuming
proud
and
corrupted
Flesh
;
and
likewise
all
sorts
of
Excrescencies
,
more
particularly

the
consistence
of
a
Paste
:
dry
the
whole
Mass

This
Powder
Cauterizes
very
speedily
and
violently
any
superfluous
Flesh
,
and
such
Excrescencies
as
are
to
be
removed
.
It
is
quick
in
Operation
;
and
the
regard
that
is
to
be
had
to
the
Nature
of
the
Corrosive
Sublimate
,
requires
much
Caution
and
Prudence
in
the
Use
of
it
;
insomuch
,
that
you
must
put
on
but
a
very
little
at
a
time
,
and
use
it
only
upon
strong
Bodies
;
and
it
is
to
be
applied
upon
no
other
Parts
than
what
are
remote
from
the
Emunctories
of
the
Noble
Parts
.
Celandine

greater
:
The
Juice
of
this
is
very
good
to
take
out
Spots
,
Pins
and
Webs
in
the
Eye
;
but
by
reason
of
its
sharpness
,
you
may
allay
it
with
a
little
Breast-milk
:
Being
put
into
hollow
Teeth
often
,
it
will
loosen
them
,
and
greatly
facilitate
their
Drawing
:
Warts
frequently
rub'd
with
the
Juice
of
Celandine
,
will
dry
up
,
and
peel
off
.
The
Decoction
of
the
Root
being
drank
with
Aniseeds
and
Whitewine
,
is
good
for
the
Jaundice
,
or
to
wash
eating

A
Gargarism
made
of
the
Decoction
of
it
with
Honey
,
has
the
same
effect
.

of
Blood
:
It
is
successfully
given
in
the
Dropsie
and
Jaundice
,
being
either
infused
in
Wine
,
or
beat
to
Powder
,
and
drank
immediately
.
Centaury
minor
:
Of
this
Lesser
sort
Galen
has
written
a
large
Treatise
.

cause
the
Decoction
thereof
is

in
Tertian
Agues

the
course
of
the

turns
it
downwards
:
it
must
be
laid
pretty
hot
on
the
Breast
,

,

a
great
cleanser
of
the
Blood
,
and
strengthener

are
afflicted

Some
hold
,
that
the
yellow
Dock-roots
work
most
effectually
when
they
are
so
afflicted
:
All
Docks
have
in
them
a
kind
of
a
cooling
,
drying
quality
,
but
not
all
alike
:
The
Sorrel
being
most
cold
,
and
the
Blood-wort
most
drying
,
the
Seed
of
them
stays
the
Lasks

divers
kinds

,
(
the
place
being
washed
with
the
Concoction
,
)
and
the
Breakin
gs
out
of
the
Skin
.
The
distilled
Water
of
the
Herb
and
Roots
have
the
same
virtue
,
and
more-especially
cleanse
the
Skin
from
Morphew
,
Spots
,
Freckles
,
or
other
discolourings
:
Any
of
the
several
Docks
being
boiled
with
Meat
,
make
it
boil
sooner
;
Bloodwort
especially
is
a
very
wholsom
Pot-herb
,
though
some
,
ignorant
of
its
virtues
,
refuse
it
,
because
it
makes
the
Pottage
blackish
:
but
those
are
more
nice
than
wise
.

Filbert
:
This
Garden-Nut
is
very
pleasant
,
and
used

at
Tables
among

;
an
Oil
is
extracted
from
them
that
supples
hard
Swellings
,
and
is
successfully
used
in
old
Sores
;
but
the
much
eating
of
these
breeds
the
Head-ach
,
and
much
Windiness
in
the
Stomach
.

a
very
moderate
Heat
extract
a
Tincture

this
,
as
often
as
necessity
requires
,
fall
into
the
Eye
,
the
Party
winking
hard
,
and
it
will
shrivel
off
the
Film
.

being

a
Syrup
by
boiling
and
squeesing
out
the
Juice
,
and
adding
as
much
Sugar
as
will
bring

kills

Skin
,
and
eases
Pains
in
the
Teeth
;
breaks

It
hath
a
special
quality
to
discuss
the
Inconveniences
coming
by
corrupt
Airs
,
and
Mineral
Vapours
,
or
by
drinking
unwholsom
Waters
or
Liquors
;
as

Cramp
,
Convulsions
,
Falling-sickness
,
the
Piles

Hemorrhoids
,
and
such
like
Diseases
proceeding
from
Cold.
But
it
has
not
its
Vertues
without
its
Vices
;
for
it
heats
very
vehemently
;
and
all
such
hot
Simples
send
up
ill
Vapours
to
the
Brain
.
In
Cholerick
Persons
it
will
encrease
the
Choler
;
and
in
those
that
are
troubled
with
Melancholy
,
it
will
attenuate
the
Humours
,
and
cause
strange
Fancies
and
Visions
in
the
Head
;
therefore
let
it
be
taken
inwardly
with
great
Moderation
;
but
for
outward
Applications
you
need
hot
be
so
strict
.

then

Glove-Gilliflowers
:
These
Flowers
are
of
a
fine
temper
,
neither
excessive
in
heat
nor
cold
,
nor
dryness
,
nor
moisture
,
that
can
be
perceived
in
them
:
They
are
great
strengthners
of
the
Heart
and
Brain
,
and
therefore
serve
indifferently
for
Cephalicks
or
Cordials
;
good
in
Consumptions
,
and
easie
to

helping
it
in

either
by

in
any
convenient
Liquors
.
Ginger
:
It
is
a
Root
belonging
rather
to
a
Herb
or
Plant
,
than
a
Tree
;
for
it
bears
a
Top
like
Reeds
,
and
runs
knotty
in
the
Ground
a
great
way
yet
is
of
admirable
use
,
viz.
It
helpeth
Digestion
,
looseneth
the
Belly
,
moderately
is
good
for
the
Stomach
,
and
profitable
against
all
things
that
dim
and
hinder
the
Sight
.
It
heateth
much
,
though
not
at
the
first
tasting
,
like
Pepper
,
for
which
Cause
some
will
not
allow
it
to
consist
of
subtil
parts
,
though
that
may
be
attributed
to
its
earthiness
,
as
being
a
Root
,
and
known
to
be
composed
of
gross
and
undigested
Substance
,
tending
much
to
watery
,
yet
is
of
excellent
Use
in
Physick
and
Diet.
Ginger-Bread
to
Make
:
Take
a
pound
of
Jordan-Almonds
,
a
penny
white
Loaf
grated
and
sifted
among
the
Almonds
,
when
blanched
,
and
finely
beat
them
together
;
then
add
an
ounce
of
Ginger
finely
scraped
,
Licorice
and
Aniseeds
in
Powder
,
each
a
quarter
of
an
ounce
,
add
two
or
three
spoonfuls
of
Rose-water
,
and
make
them
all
up
in
a
Past
with
half
a
pound
of
Sugar
,
mould
it
and
roul
it
thin
,
then
print
it
and
dry
it
in
a
Stove
:
And
thus
you
may
make
Ginger-bread
of
Sugar-plate
,
putting
Sugar
sufficient
to
it
,
that
will
keep
all
the
Year
round
.
Gladwin
:
That
here
intended
,
is
that
they
call
the
Stinking
sort
.
The
Juice
of
it
snuffed
up
the
Nose
,
causes
Sneezing
,
and
purges
the
Head
,
Rheums
,
and
offensive
Matter
:
the
Powder
of
the
Root
drunk
in
Wine
has
the
same
Effect
,
and
gives
ease
to
the
Cramp
and
Convulsions
of
the
Nerves
:
It
mainly
avails
in
the
Pain
of
the
Gout
,
or
Sciatica
,
and
gives
ease
to
those
that
are
afflicted
with
griping
Pains
in
their
Bowels
,
as
also
in
the
Strangury
.
The
Roots
boiled
in
Wine
and
drank
,
effectually
procure
Womens
Courses
;
but
is
dangerous
to
be
taken
by
a
Woman
with
Child
;
lest
it
cause
Abortion
:
half
a
dram
of
the
Powder
removes
Obstructions
in
the
Ureters
and
Bladder
,
and
immediately
provokes
Urin.
Gleetings
:
Take
four
ounces
of
Spring-water
,
or
rather
Plantane-water
,
dissolve
it
in
about
one
scruple
of
Sympathetick-Powder
,
or
so
much
as
will
give
it
a
sensible
,
but
yet
a
faint
Vitriol
,
like
Tincture
,
inject
as
much
as
is
usual
,
through
a
small
Syrup
every
Morning
and
Evening
,
as
long
as
need
requires
.
Gloves
to
Perfume
lightly
:
Rub
over
your
Gloves
with
Gleer
of
Eggs
and
Benjamin-water
,
very
thin
and
fine
,
wherein
a
grain
of
Musk
,
Ambergrease
,
or
any
other
strong
Perfume
has
been
infused
,
and
it
will
take
and
hold
the
Scent
a
long
time
:
You
may
,
as
you
like
for
change
and
alteration
of
Scent
,
rub
them
over
with
a
fine
Puff
of
Silk
dipt
in
Gessimine
,
Orange-flower
Butter
,
Essence
of
Roses
,
&c.
Goards
:
This
Plant
is
cooling
and
mollifying
by
Nature
.
The
fresh
Leaves
applied
to
the
Breasts
of
Women
in
Child-bed
,
lessen
their
Milk
;
the
Seeds
are
accounted
among
the
four
great
cold
Seeds
,
for
a
red
fiery
Face
or
often
Flushings
of
the
Face
.
Take
the
Seeds
of
Goards
two
ounces
,
the
Kernels
of
Peach-stones
four
ounces
,
make
an
Oil
of
them
by
Expression
,
and
anoint
the
Face
often
,
and
the
redness
will
decrease
,
and
in
the
end
vanish
.
Goatsbeard
:
This
Plant
is
reckoned
delicious
in
Food
,
being
often
eaten
raw
in
Sallads
;
It
's
a
great
Nourisher
,
and
therefore
good
for
Consumptive
People
:
It
is
used
for
the
Cough
,
and
in
Diseases
of
the
Breast
,
and
difficulty
of
Breathing
.
It
is
held
good
to
expel
the
Stone
,
and
provoke
Urine
:
The
Juice
of
the
Root
of
it
,
and
the
distilled
Water
have
the
same
Effect
,
as
the
Juice
or
Concoction
of
the
Herb.

the
Blood
of
a
middle-aged

Cloath
,
set
it
in
the
Sun
that
it
may
coagulate
:
then
drain
of
the
watery
part
,
and
dry
the
thicker
part
,
so
that
it
may
be
reduced
into
a
Powder
;
mix
it
with
the
Juice
of
Nettles
and
Ash-leaves
to
stay
Bleeding
,
or
being
taken
a
dram
of
it
in
a
glass
of
the
Decoction
of
Licorice
in
White-wine
,
it
much
comforteth
the
Heart
and
Lungs
.
It
is
also
prepared
for
divers
other
Uses
too
tedious
here
to
mention
,
but
will
occur
in
the
various
Medicine
scattered
over
this
Work
.

Gooseberries
:
These
being
boiled
in
Broth
,
before
they
are
ripe
,
are
very
agreeable
to
the
Stomach
,
and
are
Cooling
in
Fevers
.
They
stop
the
Flux
of
the
Belly
,
and
cause
a
good
Appetite
.
They
cure
the
Whites
and
Gonorrhoea
.
They
are
applied
outwardly
with
good
success
for

,
and
Inflammations
;
but
if
before
they
are
ripe
they
be
eaten
raw
,

cause
griping
Pains
and
Slime
in

Gooseberry-Cream
:
Coddle
your
Berries
green
,
and
boil
them
up
with
Sugar
as
for
a
Preserve
;
then
put
them
into
the
Cream
strained
,
while
the
Berries
are
whole
;
then
scrape
Sugar
over
them
,
and
so
serve
them
up
in
boil'd
or
raw
Cream
.
And
in
this
manner
you
may
use
Strawberries
,
Raspberries
,
or
Red
Currans
whole
,
in
raw
Cream
;
or
serve
them
up
with
Wine
,
Sugar
and
Rose-water
,
without

.
Gooseberries
,
to
Preserve
:
Take
of
the
largest
Berries
,
when
they
are
green
and
hard
;
of
those
,
if
you
can
get
them
,
that
are
called
Gascoign
Berries
:
pick
them
clean
,
and
covering
them
very
close
,
let
them
stand
over
a
gentle
fire
half
an
hour
,
to
coddle
a
little
;
but
suffer
them
not
to
boil
,
lest
the
Skins
break
;
and
when
you
perceive
a
fixed
greenness
on
them
,
put
them
into
a
Sieve
,
that
the
Water
may
drain
from
them
:
then
put
them
into
as
much
clarified
Sugar
as
will
cover
them
and
simper
leisurely
,
being
close
covered
,
by
which
means
they
will
look
greener
than
they
grew
;
and
having
suffered
them
to
stand
on
the
fire
in
the
Syrup
,
take
them
off
;
and
being
cool
,
put
them
up
for
your
use
.
Now
as
for
Preserving
the
various
sorts
of
Green
Fruits
,
there
are
several
proper
Seasons
to
be
observed
:
Viz.
Green
Gooseberries
about
Whitsontide
;
White
Wheat-plumbs
in
the
midst
of
July
;
Pear-plumbs
in
the
middle
of
August
;
the
Peach
and
Pippin
about
Bartholomew-tide
;
Grapes
in
the
beginning
of
September
.
Note
,
That
when
your
Green-Fruit
is
to
be
Preserved
,
you
have
two
Skillets
of
boiling
Water
,
to
shift
'em
into
one
as
the
other
cools
,
and
fettle
them
in
the
Water
till
they
fix
to
a
greenness
;
then
take
and
put
them
into
a
Sugar
Syrup
,
and
let
them
boil
gently
about
a
quarter
of
an
hour
,
and
so
put
them
up
for
use
.
Gooseberries
,
to
Pickle
:
Pick
the
Berries
clean
from
the
Stalks
and
Buds
,
lay
them
in
soak
in
Salt
and
Water
all
night
;
then
put
them
into
the
Juice
of
Crab-cherries
,
Grape-verjuice
or
other
Verjuice
,
and
so
barrel
them
up
.
In
this
manner
you
may
Pickle
green
Grapes
and
Plumbs
.
Gooseberry-Wine
,
the
best
way
:
Take
the
ripe
Berries
,
and
put
them
into
a
Vessel
,
and
pour
upon
them
a
sufficient
quantity
of
Water
very
hot
;
and
then
covering
the
Vessel
very
close
,
let
them
stand
till
the
Liquor
is
impregnated
with
the
Juice
,
at
least
three
or
four
Weeks
;
then
draw
it
out
,
mix
it
well
,
and
ferment
it
with
fine
Sugar
;
putting
it
up
in
Bottles
close
cork'd
,
it
will
become
a
generous
Wine
:
A
little
of
it
is
good
in
Fevers
,
and
other
hot
Diseases
;
or
it
may
be
drank
for
Pleasure
,
as
ordinary
Wine
.
A
Decoction
of
the
Leaves
of
Gooseberries
cools
and
allays
hot
Swellings
and
Inflammations
;
and
when
they
first
begin
to
budd
,
being
beaten
and
infused
in
White-wine
,
they
much
help
in
expelling
the
Stone
;
and
being
eaten
with
cooling
Herbs
as
Sallads
,
they
allay
the
excessive
Heat
of
the
Liver
and
Stomach
.
Gout
:
Take
the
Roots
of
Red
Dock
and
Burdock
;
bruise
them
,
and
put
to
'em
a
little
Spirit
of
Wine
;
let
'em
stand
twenty
four
hours
;
then

it
a
little
Oil
of
Turpentine
and
Olive-Oil
,
and
stop
these
up
close
in
a
Glass
for
your
use
;
and
when
you
are
to
use
them
,
pour
out
a
little
into
a
Saucer
,
warm
it
over
a
Chafing-dish

about
the
part
grieved
;
and
in
so
doing
twice
or
thrice
,
the
Pain
will
entirely
cease
.
Gout
,
to
Check
it
:

Sun
rubb'd
very
clean
,
but
not
broken
:
put
both
these
into
three
quarts
of
strong
Water
,
and
let
them
stand
on
a
moderate
heat
,
that
the
liquid
part
may
simper
for
several
hours
;
and
being
closely
bottl'd
up
,
take
a
quarter
of
a
pint
when
the
Pain
comes
upon
you
,
and
it
will
ease
it
.
Gout
,
a
Plaister
:
Take
Paracelsus
and
Diapalma
,
of
each
a
quarter
of
an
ounce
;
melt
and
incorporate
them
well
together
,
and
spread
it
Plaister-wise
upon
Leather
;
then
anoint
the
part
grieved
with
the
Ointment
of
Tabacco
and
Oil
of
Turpentine
;
and
so
laying
on
the
Plaister
,
the
Pain
in
a
little
time
will
cease
.
Gout
,
to
Remove
:
Take
highly
rectified
Spirits
of
Man's
Urine
,
warm
it
a
little
over
a
gentle
fire
,
and
rub
it
in
on
the
part
afflicted
with
a
woollen
Cloth
,
and
in
a
little
time
the
Pain
will
remove
,
and
at
last
vanish
.
Gout
,
Running
:
Take
Earth-worms
well
cleansed
in
Moss
,
and
fill
an
earthen
glazed
Pot
well
luted
and
covered
;
set
it
with
them
in
a
gentle
Oven
,
and
let
it
stand
there
till
the
Oven
becomes
cold
;
then
take
out
the
Pot
,
and
remove
the
Cover
,
and
you
will
find
a
gross
Liquor
:
strain
this
,
and
keep
it
stopt
for
your
use
,
rubbing
the
part
grieved
with
it
,
very
warm
,
once
or
twice
a
day
:
And
if
the
Smell
be
offensive
,
you
may
put
in
a
few
drops
of
the
Oil
of
Rhodium
,
or
any
other
odoriferous
Unguent
to
correct
it
.
Gout-Wort
:
This
is
so
called
from
the
excellent
Advantage
it
brings
to
those
that
are
afflicted
with
the
Pain
of
the
Gout
,
or
Sciatica
in
the
Joints
,
if
the
Juice
or
Herb
be
applied
Poultis-wise
Some
hold
,
it
will
allay
these
Pains
,
by
being
carry'd
about
the
Party
afflicted
therewith
.
Grapes
:
The
sweet
ones
are
of
a
more
hot
substance
,
and
therefore
cause
Thirst
,
and
loosen
the
Belly
;
but
the
sowre
ones
are
binding
,
and
of
hard
digestion
.
The
Juice
of
the
ripe
Grape
applied
to
Burns
or
Scalds
,
eases
the
Pain
.
The
Mother
of
the
Wine
or
Grapes
being
kept
,
is
profitable
against
Inflammations
,
of
the
Breasts
,
and
Hardness
of
them
through
too
much
abundance
of
Milk
.
The
Decoction
of
it
in
Clysters
is
good
for
Dysenteries
or
Fluxes
:
The
Stones
or
Seeds
slave
a
restringent
vertue
,
and
are
profitable
for
the
Stomach
;
and
being
parched
,
and
beat
to
Powder
,
and
drank
in
Whitewine
,
are
very
good
against
the
Flux
,
as
also
the
Weakness
of
the
Stomach
.
Dried
Grapes
and
Raisins
have
yet
a
greater
vertue
and
property
in
Physick
,
and
more-especially
those
that
are
sweetest
,
and
of
most
substance
,
as
they
of
Damascus
,
Cyprus
,
and
Candia
.
They
are
good
for
Coughs
,
Sore
Throats
,
Pains
in
the
Reins
and
Bladder
,
if
you
eat
the
Stones
with
them
.
Being
boiled
with
Sugar
,
and
the
Flower
of
Barley
,
and
an
Egg
,
they
purge
the
Brain
:
Being
reduced
into
a
Plaister
with
Flower
of
Beans
and
Cummin-seed
,
they
allay
Inflammations
.
The
fat
Raisins
nourish
more
than
the
sharp
and
lean
ones
.
Those
that
are
stoned
are
Lenitive
,
and
therefore
very
helping
in
Pains
of
the
Breast
,
Coughs
,
Sore
Throats
,
Pains
of
the
Bladder
or
Reins
,
and
the
Obstruction
in
the
Liver
.
Grapes
to
Preserve
:
Take
the
Grapes
when
green
,
stone
them
,
and
break
the
little
bunches
of
the
stalk
of
the
great
ones
;
then
take
their
weight
in
refined
Sugar
finely
beaten
,
and
strew
a
row
of
Sugar
in
your
Preserving-pan
,
and
a
lay
of
Grapes
upon
it
;
then
strew
some
more
Sugar
on
them
;
then
put
in
four
or
five
spoonfuls
of
fair
Water
,
and
boil
them
up
as
fast
as
may
be
.
Grapes
and
Wine
,
their
Virtues
:
Very
admirable
are
the
Virtues
of
the
Vine
,
and
the
Fruit
thereof
;
I
had
almost
said
,
above
all
other
Plants
:
for
the
Leaves
and
tender
Branches
being
bruised
and
laid
to
the
Head
,
by
their
Cooling
quality
,
ease
the
Pains
of
the
Head
,
occasion'd
by
Heat
,
also
the
Inflammations
or
Heat
of
the
Stomach
,
being
applied
to
it
:
And
the
Juice
drank
in
Borrage-water
,
helps
the
Dysentery
,
Fluxes
or
Spitting
of
Blood
,
Weakness
of
Stomach
,
and
bad
Appetite
,
especially
of
Women
Great
with
Child
.
The
Water
which
flows
from
the
Vine
,
when
it
is
cut
,
or
bleeds
(
as
some
term
if
)
being
drank
in
White-wine
,
purgeth
the
Gravel
.
The
Ashes
of
the
Branches
of
the
Vine
,
and
Stones
of
Grapes
,
mixed
with
Vinegar
,
help
Costiveness
.
It
's
good
against
the
Stingings
and
Bitings
of
venomous
Creatures
;
and
if
mixed
with
Oil
of
Roses
,
Rue
,
and
Vinegar
,
and
laid
Plaister-wise
,
it
helpeth
the
Inflammation
of
the
Spleen
.
Gravel
:
If
you
be
troubled
with
the
Gravel
in
the
Reins
,
Kidneys
or
Bladder
,
Take
Daucus-seeds
and
Burdock-seeds
,
of
each
an
ounce
;
mix
them
together
;
and
put
one
ounce
of
the
Mixture
into
a
gallon
of
small
Ale
;
and
when
that
has
steep'd
a
while
,
and
is
drank
up
,
put
the
other
ounce
into
another
gallon
,
and
so
continue
it
as
a
Drink
.
Gravel
,
another
:
Take
Crabs-claws
one
ounce
,
and
beat
them
into
Powder
;
Fenel-seed
powder'd
half
an
ounce
,
Powder
of
Nutmegs
four
drams
,
double-refined
Sugar
two
ounces
;
these
being
mixed
and
finely
stuff'd
,
take
as
much
at
a
time
as
will
lie
on
a
shilling
,
in
a
glass
of
White-wine
in
a
Morning
,
fasting
:
or
it
may
be
taken
in
Ale
or
Beer
.
Gravel
,
another
:
Take
a
quart
of
Water
that
is
ready
to
boil
,
put
into
it
half
a
handful
of
Scabious
,
and
half
as
much
Sage
;
let
it
boil
pretty
well
,
and
drink
it
in
the
nature
of
Tea
with
Sugar
,
and
the
Juice
of
a
Lemon
squeezed
into
it
.
Gravel
,
to
Remove
:
Take
a
quart
of
White
or
Rhenish-Wine
,
boil
it
well
to
the
consumption
of
a
third
part
;
then
put
in
an
ounce
of
the
Juice
of
White
Lily
roots
,
Juice
of
Housleek
,
and
Syrup
of
Citron
;
mix
them
well
together
over
a
gentle
fire
,
and
let
the
Party
drink
a
quarter
of
a
pint
at
a
time
blood-warm
;
and
so
doing
four
or
five
times
,
it
will
force
the
Gravel
before
it
,
and
cause
it
to
void
through
the
neck
of
the
Bladder
.
Gravel
,
to
Expell
:
Kill
a
black
Hen
or
Cock
,
if
it
be
to
be
had
;
if
not
,
one
of
another
Colour
may
serve
;
take
out
the
thick
Membrane
or
Skin
that
lines
the
Gizard
,
wipe
it
clean
,
and
dry
it
cautiously
so
as
it
may
be
beat
to
Powder
:
with
this
Powder
mix
an
equal
part
or
half
so
much
red
Coral
calcined
,
and
take
thirty
or
forty
grains
of
it
at
a
time
in
White-wine
,
or
some
other
such
kind
of
acid
Wine
.
Gravel
,
another
,
to
Expell
:
Take
two
large
Red
Onions
,
and
a
White
Lily-root
,
bruise
them
in
a
Mortar
;
squeeze
the
Juice
of
them
into
White-wine
,
and
drink
it
in
the
Morning
fasting
,
sweetned
with
a
little
Honey
:
This
gives
Ease
presently
;
and
continuing
it
,
it
removes
the
Cause
.
Green
Ointment
:
Take
new
Butter
,
toiled
and
purified
,
four
Pound
;
Burgundy-Pitch
,
and
Rosin
,
of
each
a
pound
;
Yellow
Bees-wax
four
ounces
;
melt
them
,
and
make
an
Ointment
of
them
over
a
gentle
fire
,
adding
an
ounce
of
Verdigriese
in
Powder
,
to
make
it
of
a
deep
green
Colour
,
and
so
keep
it
stirring
till
the
Ointment
be
cold
.
This
is
a
wonderful
Cleanser
and
Healer
of
all
sorts
of
Wounds
and
Ulcers
;
it
gives
Ease
to
Pains
,
and
allays
Burnings
and
Heats
in
the
Wounds
,
or
any
Inflammations
.
It
's
greatly
in
request
for
Burns
and
Scalds
,
especially
if
mixed
with
Oil
of
Roses
and
Snow-water
,
and
applied
on
a
linnen
Cloth
to
the
place
grieved
.
Green-Sauce
:
Take
the
Blades
of
Green
Wheat
,
Sorrel
,
Parsley
and
Spinage
;
stamp
them
in
a
wooden
Mortar
or
Bowl
,
with
some
Vinegar
and
fine
White
Sugar
,
and
serve
it
up
in
Saucers
,
somewhat
thinnish
,
with
a
Leg
of
Veal
boiled
,
or
a
Calf's
Head
.
Green
,
or
Winter-Green
:
This
mainly
conduces
to
the
healing
of
green
Wounds
;
the
green
Leaves
bruised
,
or
the
Juice
applied
.
A
Salve
of
the
green
Herb
stamped
,
or
the
Juice
boiled
with
Bees-wax
,
Hogs-lard
,
Sallad-oil
,
and
Turpentine
,
is
highly
preferred
for
the
Cure
of
all
manner
of
Wounds
or
Sores
.
The
Herb
boiled
in
Wine
or
Water
,
and
given
to
such
as
are
troubled
with
any
inward
Ulcers
of
the
Kidneys
or
Neck
of
the
Bladder
,
mainly
relieves
them
.
It
stays
the
Fluxes
.
It
is
good
in
Inflammations
rising
upon
Pains
of
the
Heart
;
also
in
Cankers
or
Fistula's
.
And
the
distilled
Water
may
be
carried
along
with
you
,
or
kept
by
you
for
the
above-said
uses
.
Gripes
in
Children
:
Take
the
Oils
of
Nutmeg
and
of
Wormwood
,
of
each
a
dram
;
mingle
them
well
with
two
drams
of
Camomel
,
and
anoint
therewith
the
Party's
Navel
,
and
Pit
of
the
Stomach
;
and
by
often
so
doing
,
the
Pain
will
cease
.
Grounsil
:
This
indeed
is
very
common
,
which
renders
its
Virtues
less
esteem'd
,
though
they
are
very
rare
;
for
the
Seeds
cleanse
the
Reins
,
help
much
to
break
and
expel
the
Stone
,
and
provoke
Urine
;
two
drams
of
it
taken
in
a
glass
of
White-wine
,
in
Powder
,
three
three
or
four
times
a
day
,
some
say
,
facilitate
the
Birth
,
if
it
be
taken
by
the
travailing
Woman
in
a
little
Breast-Milk
.
Ground-Pine
:
This
is
excellent
to
strengthen
the
Nerves
;
and
to
open
the
Parts
:
it
also
provokes
the
Courses
,
expells
the
dead
Child
in
the
Womb
,
and
the
After-birth
;
but
not
safe
to
be
taken
by
Women
during
their
going
with
Child
;
because
it
works
so
powerfully
,
that
it
endangers
Miscarriage
.
If
it
be
boiled
in
White-wine
,
or
powder'd
,
and
made
into
small
Pills
with
Hermodactyls
and
Venice-Turpentine
,
it
is
given
in
Dropsies
:
and
outwardly
applied
,
it
cures
Ulcers
,
by
cleansing
and
filling
them
with
good
Flesh
.
Take
of
this
and
Wormwood
,
of
each
two
handfuls
;
Scurvygrass
five
times
as
much
,
Sage
of
the
Mountain
six
handfuls
,
sliced
Oranges
six
;
make
a
Paste
of
,
Barley-meal
and
Rye
an
equal
quantity
;
make
it
into
the
fashion
of
a
Pye
,
and
equal
these
in
it
small
shred
;
then
take
them
out
and
shred
them
with
the
Crust
over
again
,
and
so
put
all
into
a
Bag
,
hanging
it
in
about
five
gallons
of
Ale
,
not
too
strong
nor
too
small
,
about
six
days
,
and
then
drink
it
twice
or
thrice
a
day
,
about
half
a
pint
at
a
time
.
This
has
been
proved
for
the
Scurvy
,
and
afflicting
Pains
of
the
Gout
.
Guajacum
:
This
for
its
singular
Virtues
is
called
Holy-wood
:
The
Decoction
of
it
well
managed
,
and
taken
in
time
,
is
a
certain
Remedy
for
the
French
Disease
.
It
is
good
in
Dropsies
,
for
Asthma's
,
Falling-Sickness
,
and
Diseases
of
the
Bladder
and
Reins
,
Pains
in
the
Joints
proceeding
from
cold
Tumours
and
Wind.
It
grows
in
the
West-Indies
,
and
there
the
Spaniards
learned
the
Use
of
it
from
the
Natives
.
The
way
to
prepare
the
Decoction
of
this
Wood
is
in
this
manner
:
Take
twelve
ounces
of
the
Wood
cut
small
,
of
the
Bark
of
it
beaten
two
ounces
,
infuse
it
in
six
pints
of
Water
,
in
a
large
earthen
Pot
,
the
space
of
twenty
four
Hours
,
keeping
the
Pot
close
stopped
,
and
boil
it
with
a
gentle
Fire
to
the
Consumption
of
two
quarts
;
and
when
it
is
cold
,
strain
it
:
then
put
to
the
same
Wood
a
gallon
of
fresh
Water
,
boil
it
to
a
quart
,
and
keep
these
two
Waters
apart
for
use
.
Gums
Apostemated
:
Take
a
handful
of
red
Sage
,
boil
it
in
Whitewine
,
add
an
ounce
of
the
Powder
of
Burnt-Alom
,
and
wash
your
Mouth
frequently
with
this
Water
:
It
is
also
good
against
the
Scurvy
.
It
likewise
fastens
the
Teeth
,
and
keeps
them
from
rotting
;
it
gives
them
a
Whiteness
,
and
eases
the
Tooth-ach
.
Gum
of
Cedar
,
its
Virtues
:
An
Oil
extracted
from
this
Gum
is
hot
in
the
fourth
degree
;
wherefore
it
doth
,
without
pain
,
rot
soft
and
delicate
Flesh
;
but
in
hard
Bodies
it
operateth
with
more
time
and
difficulty
.
It
dryeth
dead
Bodies
,
and
preserveth
them
from
Putrefaction
,
by
consuming
the
superfluous
Humour
,
without
touching
the
sound
Parts
:
but
in
living
Bodies
the
Heat
in
them
augment
the
force
of
the
Oil
,
which
causes
it
to
burn
the
tender
Flesh
.
It
is
excellent
to
kill
Nits
,
Lice
,
or
any
Insect
crept
into
the
Ear
,
and
good
in
cold
Distempers
to
anoint
the
Joints
and
Limbs
,
withal
being
much
available
in
the
Pains
of
the
Gout
,
if
mollified
with
Oil
of
Camomil
,
or
such-like
supling
Oils
.
Gum
Plaister
of
Diachylon
:
Take
Bdellium
,
Sagapenum
Amoniacum
,
of
each
two
ounces
:
dissolve
'em
in
Wine
,
and
strain
'em
;
boil
them
to
the
consistence
of
Honey
and
Great
Diachylon
.
This
being
applied
,
dissolves
,
digests
,
and
ripens
hard
Swellings
,
and
is
for
those
Purposes
very
excellent
,
if
not
the
best
of
Plaisters
.
Gums
Scorbutick
:
Take
Bole
Armoniack
the
best
,
two
drams
;
choice
Myrrh
(
not

crude
half
a
dram
,
Claret
one
pint
;
boil
them
over
a
gentle
Fire
,
strain
out
the
Liquid
part
,
and
put
a
spoonful
in
your
Mouth
twice
or
thrice
a
Day
.
Gums
to
Strengthen
:
Take
Japonian
Earth
,
and
in
a
pint
of
Claret
,
or
Red
Wine
,
dissolve
as
much
as
you
can
of
it
;
then
decant
the
Liquor
warily
from
the
subsiding
Faeces
,
and
with
it
,
when
well
settled
,
wash
your
Mouth
Morning
and
Evening
,
and
it
will
not
only
fasten
the
Teeth
,
but
renew
the
Gums
where
they
are
decayed
or
wasted
.
Gun-Powder
to
Remove
:
If
any
spots
of
Gun-powder
,
or
Shot
stick
in
the
Face
,
or
other
Parts
of
the
Body
,
you
may
remove
either
of

:
by
taking
fresh
Cow-dung
,
warming
it
,
and
putting

a
little
Hogs-Lard
,
and
applying
it
Poultiswise
.

,
and
having
made
a
Toast
of
Bread
,
not
too
fine
and
white
,
throw
it
very
hot
into
the
Brandy
,
and
as
soon
as
't
is
thorowly
drenched
,
take
it
out
and
eat
it
hot
:
this
being
repeated
two
or
three
times
,
the
Pain
will
cease
.
Or
use
this
,
viz.
Take
a
handful

wild
Camomil
,
wash
it
,
and
seeth
it
in
a
quart
of

and
the
Seeds
bruised
:
let
them
boil
a
while
,
and
then
add
the
fresh
Violets
,
thrusting
them
down
into
the
Decoction
,
at
the
same
time
taking
off
the
Pot
from
the
fire
;
and
when
the
Decoction
is
somewhat
cool
,
strain
it
,
and
clarifie
the
Liquor
with
the
White
of
an
Egg
,
and
three
pound
of
sine
Sugar
;
boil
it
over
a
gentle
fire
to
the
consistence
of
a
Syrup
.
This
Syrup
is
chiefly
given
in
dry
Coughs
,
or
hot
and
thin
Defluxions
on
the
Lungs
;
for
it
thickens
the
Phlegm
,
and
qualifies
the
Acrimony
thereof
,
and
helps
to
expectorate
.
It
may
be
taken
from
half
an
ounce
to
an
ounce
,
either
alone
,
or
else
in
Pectoral
Juleps
,
Apozems
,
or
mix'd
with
Lohochs
.
Iulep
:
To
make
an
excellent
Cooler
for
a
Calenture
,
or
Burning
Fever
,
Pare
ten
Lemons
,
press
out
the
Juice
,
and
let
it
settle
twenty-four
hours
;
then
pour
off
the
clear
part
,
and
strain
it
or
filter
it
,
and
digest
it
in
a
stone
Bottle
in
hot
Water
,
or
in
Sand
,
for
twelve
days
;
then
filter
it
again
,
and
digest
it
as
before
:
repeat
this
until
no
more
faeces
settle
;
and
during
that
time
,
calcine
the
outward
or
yellow
Peel
of
the
Lemons
,
and
with
distilled
Water
draw
the
Salt
out
of
the
Ashes
,
and
put
this
Salt
into

some
time
together
,
put
it
into
little
Vials
of
an
ounce
a
piece
,
which
is
a
Dose
sufficient
for
any
one
.
Some
say
,
That
two
Doses
of
this
will
allay
the
greatest
Burning
Fever
,
and
by
degrees
so
cool
and
temperate
the
Blood
,
that
the
Distemper
in
a
little
time
will
cease
.
It
may
be

Iuniper-Berries
,
their
Virtues
:
The
Spiritous
Water
,
as
also
the
Oil
,
are
either
of
them
proper
to
free
the
Reins
and
Ureters
from
Gravel
,
and
vitious
Matter
,
that
stops
the
Passages
,
and
hinders
the
Urine
from
having
its
course
.
They
are
also
very
useful
in
cold
Maladies
of
the
Brain
,
and
in
Scorbutick
Distempers
.
They
fortifie
the
Stomach
,
and
create
an
Appetite
,
help
Digestion
,
and
resist
Putrefaction
,
and
the
Humours
,
and
kill
the
Worms
in
the
Body
;
also
expel
Wind
,
Colick
,
and
cold
Maladies
of
the
Bowels
.
Ivy
:
This
Simple
,
though
by
some
not
much
regarded
,
is
of
great
virtue
:
for
Dioscorides
tells
us
,
A
pugil
of
the
Flowers
,
which
may
be
about
a
dram
,
boil'd
in
Red-Wine
,
or
powder'd
and
drank
twice
a
day
,
helps
the
Lask
and
Bloody-flux
.
It
is
an
Enemy
to
the
Nerves
and
Sinews
,
if
taken
much
inwardly
;
but
very
strengthening
to
them
,
if
applied
outwardly
in
Oil
,
Ointment
,
or
Poultis
.
The
Berries
pouder'd
,
and
drank
in
Ale
,
are
good
against
the
Jaundice
,
Black
or
Yellow
;
they
help
those
that
spit
Blood
,
and
kill
Worms
.
They
are
a
great
Enemy
to
Wine
;
for
if
any
one
has
got
a
Surfeit
by
hard
,
drinking
of
Wine
,
boil
a
handful
of
Ivy
in
the
like
Wine
,
and
the
Decoction
will
greatly
contribute
towards
the
Party's
Health
.
The
Juice
of
the
Berries
snuffed
up
the
Nose
,
purges
the
Head
of
Rheum
,
and
is
good
for
sore
Eyes
.
Sir
KEnelm
Digby's
Wound-Drink
:
Take
an
handful
of
the
Leaves
of
Sage
and
Rue
,
bruise
them
,
and
put
them
into
a
thin
Bag
or
Boulter
,
and
hang
it
in
four
gallons
of
ordinary
Small
Ale
well
brewed
;
and
as
soon
as
it
is
Tunn'd
,
take
three
hundred
live
Sows
,
commonly
call'd
Hog-Lice
,
(
they
live
under
old
Wood
and
Stones
:
)
bruise
these
with
a
little
of
the
Ale
,
that
all
the
Moisture
may
be
extracted
;
then
strain
it
,
and
pour
it
among
the
rest
,
and
put
the
Skins
of
the
Sows
to
the
Herbs
in
the
Bag
:
when
it
has
work'd
sufficiently
,
begin
to
drink
it
at
Meals
,
and
at
other
times
when
you
have
occasion
to
drink
:
and
to
render
it
more
grateful
to
the
Taste
,
you
may
add
a
fourth
part
of
White-wine
,
forbearing
,
during
the
taking
of
it
,
to
eat
salt
Fish
,
or
salt
Meats
.
It
is
not
to
be
wonder'd
at
,
that
this
Drink
should
be
so
efficacious
,
though
it
be
compounded
but
of
few
Ingredients
,
since
all
famous
Authors
ascribe
such
wonderful
Virtue
to
these
Creatures
;
and
Experience
testifies
,
that
they
cleanse
,
resolve
and
purifie
to
a
wonder
.
They
dissolve
the
Stone
in
the
Reins
and
Bladder
to
a
Slime
,
and
bring
it
away
;
they
open
the
Obstructions
,
help
the
Jaundice
,
and
all
Obstructions
,
Stoppage
and
Strangury
of
Urine
;
the
Colick
,
Asthma's
,
Shortness
of
Breath
;
and
also
restore
lost
Appetite
.
They
are
very
much
recommended
for
the
curing
all
sorts
of
Cancers
,
scirrhous
Tumors
in
what
part
of
the
Body
soever
,
the
Kings-Evil
,
and
all
sordid
and
inveterate
Ulcers
and
Sores
.
With
this
Drink
did
Sir
Kenelm
do
great
Cures
at
Frankford
,
in
Germany
,
and
at
other
places
.
It
likewise
stays
the
bleeding
of
Wounds
,
and
heals
them
very
speedily
.
Kermes
:
This
is
usually
call'd
the
Scarlet
Oak
.
The
Grains
of
this
Tree
are
doubly
useful
,
either
for
dyeing
Scarlet
Colour
;
or
for
Medicine
,
which
is
most
to
our
purpose
:
Wherefore
,
to
omit
the
former
,
it
is
astringent
,
and
used
successfully
for
Wounds
,
especially
where
the
Nerves
are
cut
;
and
also
prevents
Miscarriage
in
Women
.
They
are
used
in
sharp
Diseases
,
as
Apoplexies
,
Palsie
,
&c.
as
also
for
the
Palpitation
of
the
Heart
,
Fainting
,
Swooning
and
Melancholy
.

marble
Mortar
,
pulp
them
thorough
a
Sieve
or
Strainer
,
and
mix
them
with
an
equal
quantity
of
Sugar
.
This
is
the
proper
Conserve
;
and
to

a
Syrup
,
it
is
but
adding
more
Sugar
,
raw
Silk
,
the
Juice
of

and
held
to
be
one
of
the

and
purest

invented
;
for

repairs
and
recreates
the
Vital
and
Animal
Spirits
,
cures
the
Palpitations
of
the
Heart
,
and
remedies
Swooning-Fits
:
it
very
much
fortifies
the
Brain
,
and
all
the
Noble
Parts
,
and
is
an
Enemy
to
Putrefaction
:
it
re-establishes
the
languishing
and
decaying
Strength
,
and
drives
away
Melancholy
and
Sadness
;
and
restores
and
preserves
both
Body

Mind
in
a
good
Condition
.
It
may
be
taken
upon
the
Point
of
a

fails
the
Parent
's
Expectation
.

,
well-tasted
,
and

,
restore
in
Consumptions
;
they
thicken
,
cleanse
,
and
stop
Fluxes
,
as
Diarrhoea's
,
Lienteries
.
The
Decoction
of
them
is
good
against
the
Stone
;
a
strong
Broth
of
them
boiled
till
they
are
broken
,
dissolved
and
strained
,
is
good
against
a
Consumption
.
The
Flower
is
used
in
Poultisses
,
and
to
ripen
Fevers
.
It
eases
Pains
outwardly
,
it
takes
away
Freckles
,
Morphew
,
and
Sun-burn
,
and
other
Deformities
of
the
Skin
.
A
Cataplasm
made
of
it
,
discusses
Bruises
in
the
Eyes
.
A
volatil
Salt
made
of
them
,
is
good
against
the
Apoplexy
,
Epilepsie
,
Palsie
,
Lethargy
,
and
Convulsion
,
Gout
,
Stone
,
Rheumatism
,
Colick
,
and
other
Diseases
of
the
Head
,
Nerves
,
Womb
,
and
Joints
.
The
Dose
is
from
six
grains
to
ten
.
They
are
likewise
pleasant
for
Food
,
and
very
nourishing
.
Kidneys
,
their
Pains
Cured
:
Take
five
ounces
of
Maidenhair
,
Licorice
five
ounces
;
infuse
them
twelve
Hours
in
three
quarts
of
Spring-Water
;
then
boil
them
gently
in
a
Bath
,
and
press
out
the
Liquid
part
,
when
a
third
part
of
it
is
consumed
,
and
add
,
by
well
mixing
,
three
pound
of
clarified
Sugar
.
This
not
only
helps
the
Diseases
and
Pains
in
the
Kidneys
and
Sides
,
but
also
opens
the
Obstructions
of
the
Lungs
,
provokes
Urin
gently
,
and
expels
the
Gravel
and
Stone
out
of
the
Bladder
:
An
ounce
of
it
may
be
taken
at
a
time
in
any
proper
Liquor
.
Kidney-Pye
,
or
Pasty
:
Take
the
Kidneys
of
Veal
,
Fat
and
all
,
with
some
of
the
Meat
,
when
the
Loins
of
Veal
are
just
roasted
,
mince
them
very
small
with
the
Marrow
of
six
Bones
cold
,
to
which
add
sweet
Marjoram
,
Winter-savory
and
Thyme
,
very
well
bruised
,
or
small
shred
,
Rosewater
a
quarter
of
a
pint
,
half
a
pound
of
Currans
,
a
sliced
Nutmeg
,
half
a
pound
of
Sugar
,
and
the
Yolks
of
six
Eggs
;
and
mixing
them
well
together
,
let
the
Crust
of
your
Pyes
or
Pasties
be
of
Puff-past
,
and
of
but
an
indifferent
size
.
These
,
by
some
,
are
call'd
Marrow-Pasties
;
but
then
there
is
usually
more
of
the
one
than
of
the
other
among
the
Ingredients
:
These
,
being
made
very
small
,
may
be
fryed
in
sweet
Butter
,
or
tried
Suet.
Kidney
,
the
Stone
in
it
:
We
may
before-hand
perceive
the
Signs
of
this
dangerous
Distemper
by
a
fixed
Pain
in
the
Loins
,
bloody
Urin
,
or
voiding
Sand
or
Stones
,
the
numbness
of
the
Legg
on
the
side
of
the
affected
Kidney
,
the
retraction
of
the
Testicles
on
the
same
side
the
Pain
afflicts
,
a
queasiness
of
the
Sromach
,
and
straining
to
Vomit
.
In
this
case
,
if
the
Person
be
of
a
sanguin
Constitution
,
about
ten
ounces
of
Blood
may
be
taken
from
the
Arm
on
the
side
the
Pain
most
afflicts
;
after
that
drink
Posset-drink
wherein
two
ounces
of
the
Roots
of
Marsh-mallows
have
been
boiled
,

,
and
Fenugreek-seed
,
of
each
half
an
ounce
:
boil
them
in
a
convenient
quantity
of
Water
to
a
pint
and
a
half
;
make
a
Clyster
,
and
after
the
rejection
of
the
Vomit
and
Clyster
,
let
a
large
Dose
of
Liquid-Laudanum
be
exhibited
,
viz.
to
twenty
five

,
and
much
weakened
by
the
continuance
of
the
Disease
,
or
it
be
a
Woman
much
subject
to
Vapours
,
especially
at
the
beginning
of
the
Paroxysm
,
and
she
void
black
and
gravely
Urin
,
then
omit
the
Bleeding
;
but
in
all
other
Cases
proceed
according
to
the
Method
prescribed
.

,
and
is

the
Skin
,
by
being
applied
.
Some
hold
it
to
be
good
in
the
Disease
called
the
King's-Evil
.
An
Ointment
made
of
it
,
and
some
of
the
Skin
of
the
Leaf
layed
upon
them
,
is
excellent
good

This
Medicin
,
though
not
very
promising
,
is
yet
very
famous
for
the
many
Cures
done
with

Kingfisher
:
This
is
a
Water-Fowl
,
blue
,
green
and
purple
,
very
beautiful
;
it
builds
in
the
Winter
by
the
Sea-shore
,
when
generally
for
fourteen
Days
there
is
a
Calm
,
which
is
the
time
of
their
hatching
;
which
makes
some
believe
this
Bird
has
an
instinct
of
Nature
to
know
when
the
Winds
will
be
still
,
and
against
that
time
prepares
to
build
her
Nest
,
and
breed
.
Kingfishers
Flesh
is
exceeding
good
for
Consumptive
Bodies
,
wonderfully
restoring
them
,
and
making
the
Parties
grow
fat
,
fresh
,
and
lively
.
Take
upon
this
Account
of
the
Potentates
two
ounces
,
the
Powder
of
Vipers
a
dram
;
mix
them
together
for
a
Dose
,
and

,
Amber
half
a

Skull
a
scruple
,
and
it
is
a
curious
Remedy
for
those
that
are
troubled
with
the
Epilepsie
.
Kite
:
This
is
a
Bird
of
Prey
,
and
very
ravenous
;
yet
Nature
has
so
ordered
it
,
that
all
Creatures
shall
one
way
or
other
redound
to
the
Good
and
Benefit
of
Mankind
.
Some
People
,
as
the
poorer
sort
in
Germany
,
eat
the
Flesh
of
this
Bird
as
a
great
Dainty
;
yet
being
a
gross
kind
of
Food
,
it
is
not
used
by
us
for
Food
:
However
,
Take
the
Powder
of
that
Flesh
a
dram
,
volatil
Salt
of
Amber
twelve
grains
,
Sal
Armoniack
four
grains
:
these
being
mixed
for
a
Dose
,
are
prevalent
against
the
Gout
.
Again
,
Take
of
the
Flesh
of
a
Kite
in
Powder
one
dram
,
Salt
of
Man's
Skull
a
scruple
,
Filings
of
Elk-hoofs
,
and
native
Cinabar
,
of
each
ten
grains
:
mix
these
for
a
Dose
against
the
Epilepsie
.
Kites-Ashes
(
of
the
whole
Kite
)
given
in
the
same
manner
,
as
before-mention'd
,
are
prevalent
against
the
fame
Diseases
,
so
also
is
the
volatil
Salt
and
Oil
made
by
distillation
,
as
Oil
and
Salt
of
Man's
Skull
,
which
may
be
given
from
twelve
or
sixteen
grains
to
a
scruple
,
in
any
convenient
Liquor
.
Kites-Blood
:
Anoint
the
Forehead
and
Temples
with
it
,
and
it
eases
Pains
in
the
Head
,
and
prevents
strange
and
frightful
Dreams
,
causes
Sleep
,
and
sets
a
fair
Complexion
on
the
Skin
:
Made
up
with
Oil
of
St.
John's-wort
and
Wormwood
into
an
unguent
,
it
eases
Pains
in
the
Joints
,
and
is
good
to
anoint
the
Head
and
Stomach
with
,
in
case
of
the
Falling-sickness
.
Kites-Dung
:
Take
of
the
Dung
of
a
Kite
,
the
younger
the
better
,
an
ounce
and
half
,
Camphire
in
fine
Powder
two
drams
,
common
Soap
as
much
as
will
suffice
to
make
'em
into
a
Cataplasm
.
This
applied
hot
,
immediately
eases
the
raging
Pain
of
the
Gout
,
insomuch
that
several
Persons
of
Note
,
who
have
been
troubled
with
this
afflicting
Distemper
,
have
caused
Kites
to
be
taken
,
either
the
young
ones
,
or
others
,
and
kept
them
tame
as
charily
as
their
Hawks
,
for
no
other
purpose
than
for
their
Dung
.
Kites-Grease
:
This
is
good
,
to
anoint
old
Sores
and
Swellings
,
also
Pains
and
Aches
;
it
supples
the
Joints
,
and
resists
the
penetration
of
sudden
Heats
.
Iron
Instruments
rubbed
with
it
,
and
afterwards
heated
in
the
Fire
,
become
very
hard
,
and
are
rarely
after
subject
to
rust
or
decay
,
as
some
say
.
Kites-Liver
is
good
against
the
Gout
and
Epilepsie
,
and
also
Convulsions
.
Take
of
the
Powder
three
drams
,
oil
of
Rosemary
and
Lavender
,
of
each
five
drops
;
and
make
them
up
into
one
Dose
.
Kites-Testicles
:
Take
of
the
Powder
one
dram
,
extract
of
Satyrion
one
dram
and
half
;
Powder
of
Vipers
half
a
dram
:
mix
them
for
a
Dose
,
and
for
some
time
being
taken
it
helps
Barrenness
,
and
causes
Fruitfulness
;
't
is
exceeding
good
in
Consumptions
.
To
conclude
,
of
a
Creature
so
little
taken
notice
of
by
most
,
few
have
better
or
more
Virtues
to
do
good
in
these
kinds
.
Knapweed
,
its
Virtue
and
Use
:
This
Herb
or
Weed
grows
in
Fields
and
Meadows
about
the
Borders
and
Hedges
;
its
Virtue
is
to
stay
Bleeding
both
at
the
Mouth
and
Nose
,
or
any
other
outward
parts
,
and
those
Veins
that
are
broken
,
or
inward
Wounds
,
as
also
the
Fluxes
of
the
Belly
;
it
stays
the
distillations
of
thin
and
sharp
Humours
from
the
Head
upon
the
Stomach
and
Lungs
;
it
is
good
for
those
that
are
bruised
by
any
Falls
,
Blows
,
or
otherwise
;
it
is
very
profitable
for
those
that
are
bursten
and
troubled
with
Ruptures
by
drinking
the
Decoction
of
the
Root
and
Herb
in
White-wine
,
and
applying
it
outwardly
to
the
grieved
Part
;
it
is
singular
good
in
all
running
Sores
,
Cancers
,
and
Fistula's
,
drying
up
the
moisture
,
and
healing
them
gently
without
sharpness
;
it
is
of
special
use
for
the
soreness
of
the
Throat
,
the
Swelling
of
the
Uvula
and
Jaws
.
Knapwel
:
This
grows
in
most
Fields
and
Meadows
,
and
about
their
Borders
and
Hedges
,
and
in
many
wast
Grounds
.
As
for
the
time
it
flowereth
,
it
is
in
June
and
July
;
and
the
Seed
is
soon
after
ripe
.
This
Herb
stayeth
the
Flux
at
the
Mouth
,
Nose
,
and
other
outward
Parts
,
also
those
Veins
that
are
inwardly
broken
,
or
inward
Wounds
,
as
also
the
Flux
of
the
Belly
:
It
stays
the
Distillation
of
thin
and
sharp
Humours
from
the
Head
upon
the
Lungs
and
Stomach
:
It
is
good
for
those
that
are
bruised
by
any
Falls
,
Blows
,
or
otherwise
:
It
is
very
profitable
for
those
that
are
Bursten
,
and
have
Ruptures
,
by
boiling
the
Herb
and
Root
in
Wine
,
and
drinking
the

,
and
applying
the
Herb

It
is
singular
good
in
all
running
Sores
,
Cancers
,
and
Fistula's
,
drying
away
the
Moisture
,
and
healing
them
up
gently
:
It
does
the
like
to
running

of
singular
use
for
the
soreness
of

become
thick
enough
to

,
often
renewing
.
This
Plaister
will
quickly

Knot-Grass
:
The

of
this
Grass
(
for

are
pretty
large
,
triangular

inwardly
Fluxes
,
and
outwardly
the
Bleeding
of
Wounds

,
upon
the

kind
of
Grass
springs

after
,
pass
it
over
on
the

side
very
lightly
with
white
Starch
made
as
thin
almost
as
Water
,
and
follow
it
with

,
then
suffer
it
to
dry
,
and
with
a
round
Bodkin
,
or
Skewer
,
open
the
holes
or
parts
that
were

twice
;
then
by
dusting
it
clear
from

,
and
having
ready
some
Powder
of
burnt
Alom
,
run
it
over
with
that
finely
sifted
two
or
three
times
;
and
if
the
Silver
upon
the
Lace
be
gilded
,
it
will
restore
its
faded
lustre
,
and
render
it
almost
as
fresh
as
at
first
;
and
so
you
may
recover
the
lustre
of
any
tarnished
Plate
,
gilt
or
ungilt
.

roast
it

Sugar
,
it
kills
Worms
in
the
Belly
:
it
is
given

,
qualifie
Choler
and
Heat
,
dispose

Rest
,
and
encrease
Milk
:
they
yield
good
Nourishment
.
In
Phrensies
,
Madness
,

Burning
Fevers
,
&c.
let
them
be
applied
to
the
Temples
,
and
the
Coronal
Suture
,
and
Wrists
;
but
it
is
better
to
dip
double
Rags
in
Lettuce-water
wherein
Sal
Prunellae
has
been
dissolved
,
viz.
half
an
ounce
to
half
a

is
an
exceeding
Cooling
Drink
:
it
allays
the
Heat
and
Disturbances
of
the
Brain
occasion'd
by
hot
Vapours
,
and
disposes
to
sleep
.
Eating
the
Herb
boiled
or
raw
,
it
qualifies
the
Heat
of
the
Stomach
,
also
the
Effects
of
Choler
,
and
encreases
Milk
in
Women
,
yielding
good
Nourishment
;
yet
it
ought
not
to
be
eaten
too
excessively
:
Being
applied
Poultiswise

Prunellae
has
been
dissolved
,
viz.
Half
an
ounce
of
the
Salt
to
a
pint
of
the
Water
,
it
proves
exceeding
helpful
in
Frenzies
,
Madness
,
burning
Fevers
,
and
such-like
Distempers
,
occasioned
by
violent
Heats
,

Leveridge-Pudding
:
Boil
a
Hog's-Liver
very
dry
,
and
being
cold
grate
it
,
taking
as
much
grated
Manchet
as
Liver
,
sift
them
through
a
fine
Sieve
or
Cullender
;
season
them
with
beaten
Cloves
,
Mace
,
Cinamon
and
Nutmeg
;
you
may
,
if
you
please
,
put
in
a
little
Ginger
,
but
no
Pepper
;
put
then
half
a
pound
of
Sugar
,
and
a
pound
and
half
of
Currans
,
half
a
pint
of
Rose-water
,
and
three
pound
of
Beef-suet
,
eight
Yolks
of
Eggs
,
and
but
four
Whites
;
put
these
in
the
small
Guts
of
an
Ox
,
or
the
great
ones
of
a
Hog
clean
washed
,
and
beware

breaking
them
in
boiling

Licorice
is
in
Virtue
,
abstersive
,
cleansing
,
and
allayeth
the
bitterness
of
Humours
,
and
therefore
is
very
good
for
the
Heat
of
the
Urin
,
being
chewed
especially
whilst
it
's
green
or
fresh
;
it
allayeth
Hunger
and
Thirst
,
and
retaineth
that
Virtue
many
Days
:
The
Juice
of
it
held
,
when
very
thick
in
the
Mouth
,
and
there
suffer'd
to
melt
,
hath
the
same
Effect
.
It
is
good
for
the
Breast
and
Lungs
and
is
therefore
successfully
given
to
those
that
are
short-winded
,
and
breath
with
much
difficulty
,
or
such
as
are
in
Consumptions
,
or
Pleurisies
.
The
Juice
asswages
prickings
,
not
only
of
the
Arteries
of
the
Lungs
,
but
the
Bladder
also
,
and
does
excellently
relieve
Thirst
,
as
being
tempered
with
moisture
,
and
colder
than
our
Nature
.
It
is
to
be
noted
that
the
Root
,
in
which
consist
all
these
properties
,
is
much
better
being
fresh
taken
out
of
the
Ground
,
than
when
it
is
dry
;
and
is
exceeding
more
pleasant
in
the
Tast
when
used
in
Medicins
.
Lignum
Columbrinum
:
This
is
a
great
Expeller
of
Poison
;
the
Wood
,
Bark
,
and
Root
,
being
beaten
grosly
,
and
boiled
in
White-wine
,
and
drank
hot
about
a
quarter
of
a
pint
at
a
time
.
Lignum
Molucense
:
This
is
brought
from
the
Molucca
Islands
in
the
East-Indies
.
This
Wood
is
a
great
causer
of
Sleep
.
Taken
inwardly
or
outwardly
,
it
expels
hot
Poisons
,
being
rasped
and
decocted
in
Whitewine
.
It
likewise
remedies
the
Biting
of
any
venomous
Creature
Ten
grains
of
the
Powder
of
it
being
taken
in
Rose-water
,
cures
Wounds
made
by
poisoned
Arrows
;
yet
half
a
scruple
of
it
is
a
Dose
for
the
strongest
Man
.
When
it
is
used
for
Purging
,
the
Party
that
takes
it
must
abstain
from
much
eating
:
It
purges
Humours
in
general
,
but
more
particularly
,
gross
,
clammy
,
and
melancholy
Humours
.
It
is
good
for
quotidian
Agues
,
and
continual
Fevers
;
for
the
iliack
Passion
,
Wind-Colick
,
Dropsie
,
and
Gravel
;
for
Difficulty
of
making
Urin
,
Pain
of
the
Joints
and
Scirrhus
,
and
the
King's-Evil
.
It
kills
all
sorts
of
Worms
and
restores
lost
Appetite
.
Some
use
it
against
inveterate
Head-aches
,
and
the
noises
in
the
Head
.
The
Indians
keep
it
so
choice
,
that
they
will
scarce
let
a
Stranger
see
it
,
though
the
greatest
use
they
know
of
it
is
to
catch
Birds
withal
,
by
boiling
it
with
Rice
;
and
when
the
Birds
have
eaten
of
the
Rice
boiled
with
it
,
they
fall
down
in
a
Sleep
;
and
if
they
eat
too
much
they
dye
.
And
if
in
taking
it
,
it
work
too
much
,
let
the
Party
take
a
little
of
the
Decoction
of
Rice
,
and
it
will
qualifie
it
.
Lily
of
the
Vallies
:
The
Flowers
and
Leaves
of
this
are
held
exceeding
good
for
the
Apoplexy
,
Falling-Sickness
,
Palsie
,
Giddiness
,
and
other
cold
Diseases
of
the
Brain
.
Take
the
Conserve
of
these
Lilies
,
six
ounces
;
of
the
Powder
of
Male-Peony
half
an
ounce
,
Man's
Skull
prepared
in
powder
three
drams
;
the
Seeds
and
Flowers
of
Male-Peony
dried
and
powdered
,
of
each
two
drams
;
Red
Coral
prepared
,
Pearl
,
and
white
Amber
,
of
each
a
dram
;
the
Salt
of
Coral
four
scruples
,
the
Syrup
of
the
Flowers
of
Male-Peony
,
a
sufficient
quantity
to
make
into
an
Electuary
.
Take
of
this
two
drams
Morning
and
Evening
,
against
any
of
the
before-mention'd
Distempers
;
but
especially
in
Fits
of
the
Apoplexy
,
&c.
Lily-Water
:
This
is
distilled
from
white
Garden-Lilies
in
a
cold
Still
as
you
do
Roses
and
other
Simples
.
It
is
given
with
success
to
Women
that
have
hard
Labours
,
and
to
expel
the
After-birth
.
The
Root
of
these
Lilies
are
admirable
in
Cataplasms
to
asswage
Pains
and
ripen
Tumours
:
The
Oil
extracted
from
them
,
has
not
only
the
same
,
but
a
more
powerful
Virtue
.
We
find
in
several
noted
Authors
,
that
they
have
mainly
contributed
to
the
Cure
of
divers
troubled
with
the
Dropsie
,
viz.
The
Juice
mixed
with
Barly-Flower
,
and
made
into
Bread
,
and
eaten
with
their
usual
Diet
,
Thirty
or
Forty
Days
together
.
Limbs
to
Comfort
:
Apply
to
the
Part
grieved
a
Plaister
of
Oxicrocium
made
in
this
manner
:
Take
two
ounces
and
a
half
of
Saffron
,
Ship-pitch
,
Colophony
,
and
yellow
Wax
,
of
each
four
ounces
;
Galbanum
,
Turpentine
and
Ammoniacum
,
Myrrh
,
Olibanum
,
and
Mastick
,
of
each
one
ounce
and
three
drams
:
to
the
melted
Wax
,
add
the
Pitch
cleansed
from
the
Dross
and
Strained
,
next
to
that
the
Colophony
:
These
being
melted
,
take
them
from
the
Fire
,
and
let
them
cool
a
little
;
then
add
the
Ammoniacum
and
Galbanum
dissolved
apart
in
Vinegar
,
and
strained
,
and
boiled
to
the
consumption
of
the
Vinegar
,
and
mixed
with
the
Turpentine
;
then
sprinkle
in
Frankincense
,
Myrrh
,
and
Mastick
,
in
very
fine
Powder
a
quart
;
and
in
conclusion
,
the
Saffron
finely
powdered
and
well
mixed
,
and
so
make
it
into
a
Plaister
.
This
comforts
and
strengthens
the
Limbs
,
and
is
an
excellent
Emollient
for
Aches
,
and
to
discuss
cold
Tumours
,
or
any
cold
Humours
setled
in
the
Joints
,
or
afflicting
the
Nerves
and
Sinews
,
and
consequently
a
very
good
Gout-Plaister
.
Limbs
,
a
strengthening
Plaister
:
Take
Minion
powdered
one
pound
,
Cerusse
prepared
half
a
pound
,
Soap
ten
ounces
,
common
Olive-Oil
a
quart
,
Orange-flower-water
nine
ounces
;
boil
them
according
to
Art
,
till
they
become
thick
enough
to
spread
on
a
Plaister
.
This
is
very
highly
commended
for
strengthning
the
Ligaments
,
and
the
Matrix
;
being
spread
upon
a
round
piece
of
Leather
,
and
applied
;
it
also
strengthens
the
Backs
of
Women
near
Travel
,
and
eases
the
Pains
that
frequently
afflict
them
on
that
score
.
Lime-Tree
:
The
Leaves
and
Bark
of
this
Tree
repel
,
dry
and
provoke
Urin
:
A
Mucilage
made
of
the
Bark
is
good
in
Burns
and
Wounds
.
The
Leaves
bruised
and
sprinkled
with
Water
,
discuss
Swellings
in
the
Feet
.
The
Flowers
are
cephalick
,
and
of
a
very
fragrant
Scent
.
The
distilled
Water
is
much
in
esteem
for
the
Apoplexy
,
Falling-Sickness
,
and
Giddiness
;
the
Dose
being
from
an
ounce
to
an
ounce
and
a
half
.
It
is
likewise
a
great
Beautifier
of
the
Face
;
and
drank
with
Water
of
Camomil
it
cures
the
Gripes
.
The
Berries
dryed
till
reduced
to
powder
,
are
much
commended
for
the
Bloody-flux
,
and
other
Fluxes
of
the
Belly
.
Being
mixed
with
Vinegar
,
and
put
up
the
Nostrils
,
the
Bleeding
at
the
Nose
is
stayed
.
Lime-Water
,
to
Make
:
Take
a
pound
of
clean
quick
Lime
,
slack
it
in
a
gallon
of
warm
Water
,
and
let
it
stand
till
all
that
will
subside
be
setled
to
the
bottom
;
and
separation
being
made
,
the
Water
swim
clear
at
top
,
at
which
time
it
will
often
happen
,
that
a
kind
of
thin
and
brittle
substance
,
almost
like
Ice
,
will
cover
the
surface
of
the
Liquor
:
As
soon
as
the
Water
is
thus
impregnated
,
delay
not
to
pour
it
off
warily
,
and
keep
it
well
stopped
.
This
is
useful
on
divers
occasions
,
as
to
wash
Sores
,
supple
Pains
and
Aches
,
cure
the
Tooth-ach
,
the
Mouth
being
washed
with
it
and
a
little
Honey
.
If
it
be
designed
for
Consumptions
,
or
Obstructions
,
it
must
be
made
thus
:
Take
a
gallon
of
Lime-water
made
as
the
former
,
infuse
in
it
cold
Sassaffras
,
Licorice
,
and
Anniseeds
,
of
each
an
ounce
;
adding
thereto
half
a
pound
of
Currans
,
or
the
like
quantity
of
Raisins
of
the
Sun
stoned
.
The
Dose
of
this
compound
Lime-water
,
is
from
four
to
five
ounces
,
and
may
be
taken
twice
a
Day
.

of
the
Essence
of
Sulphur
,
with
some
slices
of
Lemon
,
observing
always
to
put
half
a
pound
of
Sugar
to
a
pint
of
Water
.
This
is
very
wholsom
for
the
Stomach
,
creates
Appetite
,
and
good
Digestion
,
and
is
a
very
pleasant
cooling
Liquor
;
and
in
case
of
the
Distemper
,
call'd
Furor
Uterinus
,
Take
the
Feathers
of
a
Partridge
,
burn
them
for
a
considerable
time
under
the
Party's
Nose
,
so
that
the
Fume
may
ascend
the
Nostrils
,
and
drink
a
quarter
of
a
pint
of
this
Limonade
after
if
.

Liquid-Amber
:
This
is
the
Rosin
that
flows
from
a
Tree
that
has
Leaves
like
those
of
Ivy
:
If
is
much
used
in
Physick
,
it
heats
and
strengthens
,
resolves
,
and
is
Anodyne
;
it
comforts
the
Brain
,
the
Head
being
anointed
with
it
;
it
cures
all
sorts
of
Pains
proceeding
from
cold
Causes
.
It
provokes
Appetite
,
strengthens
the
Stomach
,
and
helps
Concoction
.
It
likewise
gives
Gloves
a
very
fragrant
Scent
.
It
resolves
Tumours
,
and
opens
Obstructions
of
the
Womb
,
asswaging
the
Tumours
of
it
.
It
is
good
to
provoke
the
Courses
.
Some
cut
the
Wood
of
the
Tree
from
which
it
flows
into
small
pieces
,
and
boil
it
,
and
take
off
the
Fat
that
arises
from
it
,
and
sell
it
for
the
true
Oil.
Some
Apothecaries
sell
that
for
Liquid-Storax
,
when
indeed
it
has
little
or
nothing
of
the
Virtue
of
the
Liquid-Amber
,
or
Storax
.
Liquor

you
are
directed
to
make
,
and
let
the
Infusion
continue
till
the
Liquor
has
acquired
a
deep
Tincture
,
and

this
wash

Ulcers
,

Sores
,
Bruises
,

Wounds
,
if

require

,
twice
a

the
Table
.
Lunacy
:
This
is
a
Distemper
first
seated
in
the
Blood
,
and
then
afflicting
the
Brain
.
When
the
Symptoms
of
it
first
begin
to
appear
,
by
extraordinary
Flushing
and
Heat
,
and
the
Party
talk
wildly
,
Let
Blood
,
but
not
too
much
,
fourteen

a
quarter
of
an
ounce
of
Rhubarb
thin
sliced
,

be
drank
luke-warm
at
two
Draughts
,
an
hour's
time
between

Draught
,
sweeten'd
with

,
and
the
Party
put
into
bed
,
and
a
warm
Caudle
,
or
else
some
strengthening
Broth
provided
and
sup'd
up
about
an
hour
afterward
:
by
a
gentle
breathing
sweat
the
afflicting
Humour
will
be
dispers'd
,
and
by
degrees
evaporate
.

Gall
of
a
Hare
,
boil
it
in
a
quarter
of
a
pint

,
Shortness

add
a
little
of
the
Oil
,
as
you
bruise
it
in
a
Mortar
with
an
iron
Pestle
,
till
the
Litharge
and
Oil
has
so
overcome
the
Vinegar
,
that
it
appears
not
,
and
it
becomes
a
kind
of
a
whitish
,
Ointment
;
then
put
it
up
for
your
use
,
keeping
it
close
covered
.
This
takes
away
Spots
,
Pimples
,
Sun-burn
,
Morphew
,
and
Yellowness
of
Complexion
;
cures
Itch
,
Scabs
,
Botches
,
Breakings-out
,
Tetters
,
Ring-worms
;
kills
Worms
in
the
Skin
,

the
watry
Humours
,
tending
to
Dropsies
,
by
anointing
with
it
.
Marchpane

Bacon
:
To
make
this
,
Take
March-pane-paste
,

till
there
be
three
of
the
white
and
four
of
the
red
one
on
another
,
in
a
mingled
sort
every
red
between
;
then
cut
it
overthwart
,
and
it
will
look
so
like
Rashers
of
Bacon
,
that
it
will
deceive
the
Eye
,
till
you
come
to
handle
it
:
and
so
having
dried
it
,
you
may
keep
it
for
your
use
on
any
occasion
.
Marchpane

Sugar
finely
sifted
,
beat
them
and
mingle
them
till
they
become
a
Paste
;
add
a
little
Rose-water
,
then
cover
it
with
a
sheet
of
Paper
,
make
Impressions
round
it
with
a
Spur-iron
,
or
Marking-iron
,
used
in
Pastry
;
Ice
it
over
with
Sugar
,
Rose-water
and
the
White
of
an

beat
up
together
:
and
being
drawn
,
garnish
it
with
Comfies
,
cut
Leas-Gold
or
Silver
in
divers
shapes
,
and
stick
it
on
with
Gum-water
;
then
strew
grated
Bisket
and
Carraways
on
it
.
If
it
happens
to
be
Oily
in
beating
,
to
remedy
this
,
put
in
as
much
Rose-water
as
will
make
it
as
thin
as
Ice
.
Marchpane
like
Hung-Beef
:
Work
some
of
the
Paste
with
Red
Saunders
,
spread
it
into
a
flatness
;
and
the
other
being
White
,
lay
them
one
on
another
;
and
when
it
is
dried
and
cut
fine
,
it
will
,
at
first
sight
,
appear
like
Interlarded
Beef
.
Marchpane

Blanch
two
pound
of
Almonds
,
beat
them
in
a
Mortar
into
a
fine
Paste
,
add
to
them
a
pound
of
fine
Sugar
,
and
by
mixing
them
well
together
,
they
will
thereby
become
a
good
Paste
.
Observe
,
as
you
mix
them
,
to
prevent
their
turning
to
Oil
,
you
must
put
in
a
few
spoonfuls
of
Rose-water
,
than
cover
the
Marchpane
in
a
sheet
as
big
as
a
Charner
,
and
set
an
Edge
about
it
as
you
do
about
a
Tart
,
and
a
Bottom
of
Wafers
under
it
:
then
bake
it
in
an
Oven
or
Baking-Pan
,
and
when
you
perceive
it
dry
and
hard
,
take
it
out
,
and
Ice
it
with
Rose-water
and
Sugar
,
being
made
as
thick
as
Batter
for
Fritters
:
so
with
a
Wing-feather
of
a
Duck
or
Goose
,
spread
it
on
,
and
again
put
it
into
the
Oven
,
and
when
it
rises
high
,
take
it
out
and
garnish
it
with
the
Figured
of
Birds
,
Beasts
,
Leaves
,
not
the
like
,
made
of
the
same
stuff
,
and
sticking
long
Comfits
upright
in
it
,
serve
it
up
.
Marrigold-Water
,
its
Virtues
:
This
is
an
excellent
Water
for
Inflamed
Eyes
:
being
dropt
in
them
,
it
takes
away
the
Inflammation
and
Redness
;
or
a
Rag
dipped
in
it
,
may
be
applied
to
the
Eyes
with
the
same
success
.
The
Flowers
are
very
Cordial
and
Hepatick
,
they
provoke
Sweat
and
the
Courses
:
There
is
therefore
an

Conserve
made
of
them
,
after
this
manner
:
Take

,
Confection
of

together
with
a
sufficient
quantity
of
fine
Sugar
;
take
of
it
about
a
quarter
of
an
ounce
Morning
and
Evening
:
it
is
a
great
Cordial
for
refreshing
the
Spirits
,
and
a
Preservative
against
the
Plague
and
Pestilential
Fevers
.

,
helps

:
The

Metheglin
,
its
Virtues
:
Metheglin
has
been
highly
held
in
Esteem
in
this
Nation
,
and
is
of
excellent
use
among
us
,
if
rightly
made
;
nor
can
it
be
otherways
,
since
Honey
,
its
principal
Ingredient
,
is
the
Collection
of
so
many
Herbs
,
Plants
,
and
Flowers
;
and
no
doubt
the
quintessential
part
of
them
.
It
's
an
excellent
Pectoral
,
good
against
Consumption
,
Phthisick
,
and
Asthma
:
It
is
cleansing
,
and
diuretick
,
good
against
the
Stone
and
Gravel
:
It
is
restorative
and
strengthning
,
comforting
the
vital
Part
,
and
affords
good
Nourishment
.
To
make
it
then
,
take
these
following
Rules
.
Metheglin
,
a
new
way
:
Take
Hyssop
,
Agrimony
,
Burnet
,
wild
Thyme
,
Baum
,
Mint
,
and
Fennel
,
Rosemary
and
Angelica
,
and
other
suitable
wholsom
Herbs
that
have
strength
in
them
,
of
each
about
a
quarter
of
a
handful
:
boil
them
in
a
sufficient
quantity
of
fair
Water
,
till
tender
;
then
press
out
the
Water
,
and
let
it
stand
a
Day
and
a
Night
to
settle
:
draw
off
that
part
which
is
clear
,
and
put
two
quarts
of
Honey
to
two
gallons
of
it
,
and
so
proportionably
;
let
it
boil
an
hour
,
keeping
it
clean
from
the
scum
,
then
set
it
a
cooling
,
and
being
cold
,
add
a
little
Ale-yeast
,
and
put
it
into
a
convenient
Vessel
,
covering
the
Bung
with
a
wet
Cloath
;
and
when
it
has
worked
,
at
three
Days
end
take
off
the
Yeast
,
or
leave
it
behind
,
by
drawing
it
off
,
and
putting
it
into
another
Vessel
,
in
which
it
must
have
vent
for
three
Days
longer
:
then
stop
it
up
close
,
yet
when
you
hear
it
make
a
noise
,
you
must
give
it
vent
with
a
Piercer
,
or
else
,
if
it
force
not
out
the
Cork
,
it
may
happen
to
break
the
Vessel
:
If
you
think
convenient
,
you
may
make
a
Bag
,
and
put
in
good
store
of
Ginger
sliced
,
also
Cloves
and
Cinnamon
,
suffering
it
to
hang
and
infuse
so
,
as
not
to
touch
the
bottom
,
and
at
two
or
three
Months
end
,
you
may
,
if
you
think
fit
,
draw
it
off
.
Metheglin
another
way
:
Take
Spring-water
,
and
boil
it
with
Rosemary
,
sweet
Marjoram
,
Sage
,
Baum
,
and
Sassaffras
,
until
it
has
boiled
three
or
four
Hours
,
the
whole
quantity
of
Herbs
not
needing
to
exceed
one
handful
to
a
gallon
of
Water
,
of
each
an
equal
proportion
;
and
when
it
is
boiled
sufficiently
,
set
it
to
cool
and
settle
a
whole
Night
,
then
strain
it
,
and
add
Honey
the
best
,
then
set
it
over
the
Fire
,
and
take
the
Whites
of
twenty
or
thirty
Eggs
,
beat
them
very
well
,
and
when
it
boils
,
pour
them
in
at
twice
;
stir
it
well
,
and
then
let
it
boil
apace
before
you
scum
it
:
after
it
is
scummed
,
take
it
off
the
Fire
,
and
pour
it
into
any
earthen
thing
to
cool
;
and
being
cold
,
put
five
or
six
spoonfuls
of
new
Ale-yeast
to
it
,
stir
it
together
,
and
then
every
Day
scum
it
with
a
bundle
of
Feathers
till
it
has
done
working
,
and
so
put
it
up
into
a
Cask
,
if
you
can
gee
such
a
one
,
that
has
had
Sack
,
or
Malaga
in
it
;
and
to
every
gallon
of
Metheglin
,
put
a
quart
of
Sack
,
or
one
pint
of
Aqua-vitae
,
a
quarter
of
a
pound
of
sliced
Ginger
,
and
two
or
three
peels
of
Lemons
and
Oranges
in
a
Bag.

try
its
strength
,
put
in
a

boil
it
over

a
little
,
keeping

and
when
it
has
done
working
,
stop
it
up
close
,
and
draw
it
not
off
in
two
Months
,
and
it
will
purge
Melancholy
,
much
revive
the
Spirits
,
comfort
and
strengthen
the
Heart
,
purge
by
Urin
,
and

:
and
being
brought

But
instead
of
Neats-tongues
,
if
you
please
,
Veal
,
Beef

Chaldrons
,
will
do
very
well

of
Fevers
.
It
is
a
peculiar
and
special
Antidote
against
the

of
pestilential
Infections
.
It

Stoppages
of
the
urinary
Parts
,
and
provokes
Urin
,
gives
ease
in
the
Quinsie
,
in
hot
,
sharp
,
and
scalding
Urin
,
and
Gonorrhoea
;

these
purposes
,
it
is
best
to
take
a
dram
of
it
in
Wine
sweetned
with
Sugar
.
Mint
:
This
is
meant
of
that
sort
of
Garden
Mint
,
called
Spear-Mint
.
Its
Virtues
are
very
many
,
viz.
Beat
it
and
lay
it
to
the
Stomach
that
is
weak
and
wants
digestion
,
and
it
comforts
and
fortifies
it
.
It
is
a
soveraign
Herb
to
restore
the
Smelling
and
Feeling
to
those
,
wherein
they
are
much
decayed
;
for
the
first
,
being
often
held
to
the
Nose
,
and
for
the
other
,
the
Decoction
of
it
very
strong
applied
to
the
numbed
part
.
The
Leaves
dried
and
powdered
,
given
to
young
Children
,
kill
and
bring
away
Worms
:
The
Juice
drank
with
Vinegar
stenches
Blood
;
and
with
the
Juice
of
sower
Pomegrante
,
restraineth
Vomiting
,
Hicups
,
and
Colick-Passions
.
This
Mint
,
with
Rose-water
,
and
grated
Nutmeg
,
laid
on
the
Forehead
,
asswageth
the
Head-ach
;
and
laid
on
the
tender
Dugs
full
of
Milk
,
it
easeth
the
Pain
of
them
.
Applied
with
Salt
,
it
is
good
for
the
Biting
of
Mad
Dogs
:
And
the
Juice
of
it
mixed
with
Honey
,
dissolved
in
Water
,
being
dropt
into
the
Ears
,
easeth
the
Pain
of
them
.
The
whole
Herb
distilled
In
a
glass
Alembick
,
in
a
Bath
of
hot
Water
,
or
otherways
,
four
ounces
being
drank
,
stayeth
Bleeding
at
the
Nose
.
Those
that
affect
much
Milk
,
to
prevent
the
curdling
of
it
in
their
Stomachs
,
would
do
well
to
chew
Mint
in
their
Mouths
,
and
swallow
the
Juice
after
it
.
If
Cheese
be
sprinkled
with
the
Juice
,
or
Decoction
of
it
,
it
will
keep
from
Corruption
,
or
Rottenness
.

put
into
the
receiver
as
much
fine
Sugar
as
will
conveniently
sweeten

be
founnd

three
pints
of
Hydromel
newly

Mushrooms

To

Musk
:
This
is
an
Excrescence
,
supposed
by
some
to
be
a
Tumour
,
or
Swelling
,
of
corrupt
Blood
about
the
Navel
of
the
Musk-Roe
;
which
,
after
putrifaction
and
ripening
,
becomes
Musk
in
a
perfect
Cod
,
which
,
others
affirm
,
falls
off
from
the
Beast
of
its
own
accord
:
Being
well
prepared
,
it
is
not
only
a
very
sweet
Perfume
,
but
also
taken
in
Cordials
,
cheats
and
revives
the
Heart
,
and
dispels
gross
Vapours
from
the
Brain
;
and
is
good
against
pestilential
Diseases
,
infused
in
Mint
,
Baum
,
or
Rue-water
.
Muskadines
to
Make
:
Take
half
a
pound
of
refined
Sugar
,
being
beaten
and
fearsed
,
put
into
it
two
grains
of
Musk
,
a
grain
of
Civet
,
and
two
grains
of
Ambergrease
,
and
about
two
drams
of
white
Orris-powder
,
beat
them
with
Gumdragon
steeped
in
Rose-water
;
then
roul
it
as
thin
as
may
be
,
and
cut
it
into
Diamond
fashion
,
like
Lozenges
,
with
your
jigging
Iron
,
and
let
them
in
some
warm
Oven
,
or
Stove
;
then
put
them
into
Boxes
for
use
,
and
in
this
manner
they
will
keep
all
the
Year
.
Musk-Sugar
,
to
Make
:
Bruise
four
or
five
grains
of
Musk
,
put
it
into
a
piece
of
Cambrick
,
or
Lawn
,
lay
it
at
the
bottom
of
a
Pot
or
Glass
,
and
sift
fine
Sugar
on
it
,
stop
the
Pot
close
from
Air
,
and
set
it
in
a
warm
Place
,
and
in
a
few
Days
the
Sugar
will
have
suck'd
up
the
Tincture
of
the
Musk
,
and
yield
a
very
pleasant
Smell
.
Thus
you
may
perfume
Sweetmeats
,
or
Comfits
,
by
keeping
them
up
very
close
;
but
if
the
Air
gets
in
,
the
Spirit
of
the
Musk
will
evaporate
.

of
Capers
;

Meat
is
on
it
,
and
place
on
the
top
of
your
Meat
,
the
Dish
garnished
with

the
Turkish

in
thin
slices
,

Mutton
to
pass
for
Venison
:
Take
a
Shoulder
of
Mutton
,
pretty
large
,
but
let
it
be
young
and
tender
,
strain
the
Blood
of
the
Sheep
amongst
grated
Bread
,
then
prepare
your
seasoning
of
ordinary
sweet
Herbs
shread
very
small
;
take
the
Bones
out
of
the
Meat
,
and
roul
them
up
in
it
,
or
stuff
them
in
at
convenient
places
,
then
wrap
it
up
with
a
Caul
of
Veal
,
lay
it
in
the
Blood
to
soak
twenty
four
Hours
,
prick
it
so
with
a
Knife
that
the
Blood
may
the
more
easily
penetrate
it
bake
it
and
serve
it
as
usually
Venison
is
done
;
and
it
must
be
a
very
curious
Pallate
that
can
discover
it
from
what
it
represents
.
Myrrh
:
This
pretious
Gum
grows
upon
a
low
prickly
crooked
Shrub
,
with
a
smooth
Bark
like
Laurel
,
but
the
Leaves
like
Olives
,
and
much
rougher
;
yet
out
of
this
Tree
proceeds
a
Gum
little
differing
in
appearance
from
Drops
,
or
Tears
,
but
afterwards
it
becomes
of
a
greener
Colour
,
and
is
clear
and
sweet
to
the
Smell
,
but
not
so
to
the
Tast
,
it
being
somewhat
bitter
▪
The
right
Myrrh
being
drank
in
White-wine
,
abates
the
Fit
of
the
Quartan-Ague
:
it
is
also
very
good
in
Antidotes
against
Poisons
and
Hurts
by
venomous
Beasts
:
It
resists
pestilential
Fevers
and
Plague
;
and
being
applied
to
Wounds
,
it
expedites
their
Cure
.
And
many
other
excellent
Virtues
,
not
here
mention'd
.
NAils-Cloven
:
Mingle
Turpentine
and
Wax
together
,
spreading
it
as
a
Plaister
,
lay
it
on
the
defective
Nail
,
and
as
it
grows
,
cut
it
away
,
and
in
a
short
time
it
will
be
reduced
as
the
other
.
NAils
falling
off
:
Take
Powder
of
Agrimony
,
mix
it
with
the
White
of
an
Egg
,
lay
it
on
the
Nails
,
and
it
will
strengthen
and
confirm
them
;
it
will
also
take
away
the
aking
,
that
usually
attends
them
in
such
Circumstances
.
Nails
to
grow
:
Take
fine
Wheat
flower
,
mingle
it
with
Honey
,
lay
it
on
the
place
where
the
Nail
is
defective
,
Plaister-wise
,
and
the
Nail
will
sprout
out
and
grow
apace
to
its
due
proportion
.
Nail-Pricking
:
If
a
Nail
or
piece
of
Iron
,
run
into
any
part
,
so
that
it
causes
a
pain
,
or
festering
,
Take
Turpentine

an
ounce
,
Bees-wax

like
quantity
,
the
Juyce
of
Housleek
,
Burgundy
Pitch
,
and
Mutton-Suet
,
of
each
a
quarter
of
an
ounce
;
mix
them
together
into
a
Plaister
,
and
by
application
it
will
take
away
the
Pain
,
and
cure
the
Wound
.
Nail-Scratching
:
It
is
held
,
that
the
Nails
of
the
Hand
scratching
in
some
Cases
prove
venomous
;
yet
this
is
no
more
than
the
suffering
it
to
fester
,
or
the
Humours
to
flow
to
that
place
before
prevented
;
to
remedy
it
,
and
cure
the
Wound
made
,
Take
Olive-Oil
a
quarter
of
a
pint
,
Juice
of
Groundsil
two
ounces
,
Bees-Wax
,
two
ounces
,
Stone-pitch
half
an
ounce
:
make
these

a
gentle
fire
,
into
a
Salve
,
and
spreading
it
on
Linnen
,
or
Leather
,
apply
it
to
the
place
grieved
,
and
in
two
or
three
times
changing
,
and
anointing
with
Linseed
Oil
,
the
danger
will
be
past
,
and
the
Cure
effected
.
Nail
wort
:
This
is
held
exceeding
successfull
,
being
applied
to
Imposthumes
in
the
Joints
,
and
any
Defects
under
the
Nails
,
especially
for
Whitloes
,
Fellons
,
and
Nail-wheals
.
Naples
Bisket
,
To
make
these
so
much
in
use
:
Take
a
pound
of
fine
Flower
,
and
the
like
Weight
of
Sugar
,
eight
Eggs
,
and
two
spoonfulls
of
Rose-water
,
an
ounce
of
Carraway-seeds
beaten
small
:
mix
them
well
together
,
and
put
them
,
when
made
,
into
a
fit
thinness
with
fair
Water
,
into
Tin
Coffins
,
and
bake
them
moderately
in
a
gentle
Oven
,
glazing
them
over
with
Water
,
in
which
Sugar
has
been
dissolved
.
Nature
to
restore
:
Take
an
Artichoke
,
and
dress
it
with
Milk
;
that
is
,
first
boil
your
Artichokes
in
Water
till
the
Leaves
will
just
draw
off
,
then
put
them
in
New
Milk
,
and
boil
them
thoroughly
;
then
bruise
the
Pulp
in
the
Milk
,
and
add
a
little
Mace
and
grated
Nutmeg
,
sweeten
it
with
Sugar
,
and
eat
often
of
it
with
a
Spoon
.
It
exceedingly
restores
decayed
Vigour
,
and
strengthens
not
only
the
Spirits
,
but
the
whole
Frame
of
the
Body
.
The
Germans
and
French
usually
eat
the
tender
Stalks
of
this
Plant
boiled
with
Butter
and
Vinegar
:
the
Italians
seldom
boil
the
Heads
,
but
eat
them
raw
,
with
Salt
,
Pepper
,
Oil
,
and
Vinegar
:
they
are
moreover
held
to
provoke
Venery
,
and
the
Decoction
of
the
Buds
drank
,
provoke
Urine
.
Navel
pained
:
If
a
pricking
or
shooting
in
the
Navel
happen
,
which
frequently
by
communication
extends
to
the
Fundament
,
or
Privy
Parts
,
by
its
twitchings
and
shootings
,
Take
Oil
of
Roses
,
and
Camomil
,
of
each
an
ounce
and
a
half
;
Comfry
the
Herb
,
half
a
handfull
;
bruise
it
,
and
fry
it
in
the
Oils
a
little
,
then
apply
it
plaister-wise
,
to
the
Navel
as
hot
as
can
be
endured
:
it
also
takes
away
the
Pains
of
the
Belly
,
and
causes
the
Rumbling
of
the
Bowels
to
cease
.
Navel-wort
Ointment
:
This
is
moderately
Astringent
,
and
therefore
good
for
hot
Distempers
or
Inflammations
:
some
use
it
for
the
Kings-Evil
,
and
for
the
curing
Kibes
,
Chilblains
,
and
the
like
.
Nauseousness
:
When
the
Stomach
,
or
Appetite
is
offended
in
this
manner
,
and
brought
to
a
kind
of
Loathing
,
Take
the
Powder
of
the
Seed
of
Common
Fennel
in
a
Glass
of
White-wine
,
sweetened
with
Sugar
,
every
morning
fasting
,
till
the
Offence
be
removed
.
This
likewise
wonderfully
clears
the
sight
,
strengthens
the
Stomach
,
and
being
mixed
with
pectoral
Medicines
,
it
relieves
those
that
are
Asthmatick
.
It
also
resists
Poyson
,
and
the
Leaves
of
Fennel
,
boiled
in
Water
,
wherein
Barley
has
been
boiled
,
encreases
Milk
in
Nurses
;
and
a
Concoction
of
the
Seeds
and
Leaves
give
ease
to
the
Nephritick
Pains
,
forces
Urine
,
and
expel
Is
Gravel
;
the
Roots
provoke
the
Courses
,
open
the
Obstructions
of
the
Spleen
,
and
Liver
,
and
mainly
help
the
Jaundice
.
The
whole
Herb
shred
and
boiled
in
Broth
,
takes
away
Fat
,
and
keeps
the
Body
in
a
good
Proportion
.
Many
other
Vertues
are
ascribed
to
it
.

pour
on
of
Spirit
of
Nitre
,
twice
as
much
,
stop
the
Vessel
close
,
and
let
it
over
a
Pot
half
full
of
Water
,
pretty
well
heated
,
frequently
stirring
it
,
to
help
forward
the
Dissolution
;
which
will
be
done
in
two
or
three
hours
,
and
by
this
means
you
will
find
the
Camphire
turned
into
a
clear
Oil
,
which
will
swim
above
the
Spirit
,
then
separate
it
in
a
Viol
for
use
.
This
is
not
only
used
to
touch
the
Nerves
that
lye
uncovered
,
but
for
the
caries
of
Bones
:
yet
this
Oil
is
nothing
but
a
Dissolution
of
the
Camphire
in
the
Spirit
of
Nitre
;
for
if
you
cast
Water
upon
it
,
to
kill
the
Force
of
the
Spirit
,
it
will
turn
into
Camphire
as
before
.

:
This
is
good
to
stop
bleeding
,
and
ease
the
Pains
in
the
Head
;
being
drunk
it
provokes
Urine
,
and
is
helpfull
in

and
applied
to
Inflammations
and
Tumours
,

of
this
comes
a
bitter

,
or

,
which

,
and
a

is
greatly
available
to
allay
the
Heat
and
Anger
of
sore

and
recover
them
so
,
that
the
Infant
may
suck
without
giving
the
Woman
any
pain
.

Noise
in
the
Ears
:
Take
the
Oil
of
Ben-Nut
,
drop
it
into
the
ear
,
and
it
not
only
cures
the
Noises
,
but
in
a
great
manner
helps
Deafness
.
It
cleanses
the
Skin
from
Spots
or
Morphew
,
and
the
longer
it
is
kept
,
the
better
it
is
.
This
Ben-Nut
likewise
mixed
with
Honey
,
dissolves
hard
Swellings
,
and
the
Kings-Evil
;
made
up
to
a
Poultis

Meal
of
Lupins
,
it
takes
off
the
Obstructions
afflicting
the
Liver
and
Spleen
;
it
subverts
the
Stomach
,
occasions
Nauseousness
,
and
moves
the
Belly
.
It
purges
gross
and
clammy
Flegm
,
by
Vomit
and
Stool
;
wherefore
it
is
good
for
a
flegmatick
Colick
.
Noise
,
a
singing
Noise
in
the
Ear
:
This
is
usually
the
Forerunner
of
Deafness
,
and
few
that
have
it
to
any
purpose
,
escape
the
losing
their
Hearing
,
especially
for
a
time
;
therefore
the
best
way
is
timely
to
prevent
it
:
to
do
which
,
Take
the
Pills
de
Hiera
,
or
Hiera
cum
Agarico
,
with
which
the
Apothecary
or
Druggist
will
furnish
you
.
Take
of
them
a
dram
at
a
time
going
to
Bed
,
and
settle
your self
as
well
as

,
and
the

,
take
the
following
Decoction
,
viz.
Take
the
Tops
of
Mint
,
Marjoram
,
and
the
Flowers
of
Wood-Roses
,
Bettony
,
Sage
,
and
Camomil
,
of
each
half
a
handfull
:
boil
them
in
a
convenient
quantity
of
Water
,
'till
half
be
consumed
;
then
taking
them
from
the
fire
,
let
the
Fume
or
hot
Vapour
ascend
into
the
Ears
,
by
laying
first
one
and
then
the
other
side
of
the
head
over
it
;
or
you
may
drop
three
or
four
drops
of
the
Oil
of
Amber
palliated
with
Oil
of
Roses
,
into
the
Ears
,
and

Nose
Bleeding
:
To
stay
this
speedily
and
effectually
,
Take
the
long
things
that
grow
on
Hazle-Trees
before
they
Leave
,
by
some
called
the
Nut-Blossoms
,
burn
them
so
that
they
may
be
reduced
to
a
Powder
,
but
not
to
Ashes
;
and
when
the
Blood
issues
from
the
Nose
,
blow
up
some
of
it
with
a
quill
into
the
Nostrils
,
and
let
the
Party
drink
the
Juice
of
Plantane
,
or
Plantane-water
and
Milk
,
and
the
Bleeding
will
stay
:
This
also
will
stay
inward
Bleeding
till
better
Remedies
can
be
obtained
,
though
many
times
,
of
it self
,
it
is
effectual
,
and
there
needs
no
other
,
unless
some
large
Vein
be
broke
,
or
some
extraordinary
Flux
of
Blood
otherways
happens
.
Noses
to
Dress

This
is
meant
of
an
Ox
,
Steer

Boil
them
tenderly
,
and
then
fry
them
in
sweet

drain
the

from
them
,
and
put
to
them
the
Powder
of
Nutmeg
and
Anchoves
dissolved
in
fair
Water
and
Whitewine
,
with
a
little
Salt
and
Mutton-Gravy
:
give
all
these
a
warm
over
the
Fire
,
and
serve
them
up
in
a
Dish
;
then
run
it
over
with

beaten
up
with
the

Nurses
Milk
to
Encrease
:
Take
of
Earth-worms
an
ounce
,
wash
them
well
,
and
dry
them
so
that
they
may
keep
sweet
,
and
yet
be
reduced
to
a
Powder
;
then
take
half
a
dram
,
or
two
scruples
for
a
Dose
in
a
Glass
of
Canary
.
Nutmegs
are
somewhat
Astringent
,
and
Stomachick
,
Cephalick
and
Uterine
;
help
Concoction
,
discuss
Wind
,
take
away
the
offensive
Fumes
of
a
strong
Breath
,
are
good
in
the
Palpitations
of
the
Heart
,
and
prevent
Faintings
,
lessen
the
Spleen
,
and
stop
Looseness
and
Vomiting
,
provoke
Urin
,
and
quicken
the
sight
;
are
of
great
use
in
Fluxes
,
especially
the
Bloody-flux
,
having
all
the
Virtues
necessary
for
a
Medicin
fit
for
these
Diseases
:
The
Oil
cleanses
and
defends
the
Bowels
from
sharp
offensive
Humours
,
and
eases
the
Pains
that
frequently
afflict
them
:
The
aromatick
quality
,
consisting
in
the
airy
spirit
,
penetrates
the
noble
Part
,
and
administer
Comfort
,
whilst
the
gross
and
earthy
part
dries
up
Ulcers
,
and
cicatrises
them
:
Candied
Nutmegs
,
or
as
they
come
over
with
their
green
Husks
about
them
,
are
good
in
all
cold
Diseases
of
the
Head
,
as
Palsie
,
and
other
Diseases
of
the
Nerves
,
and
Womb
,
and
are
very
Cordial
:
And
notwithstanding
all
these
Virtues
in
this
one
small
Simple
,
yet
if
it
be
taken
immoderately
,
that
is
,
in
too
great
a
quantity
,
it
proves
very
hurtful
,
occasioning
sleepy
Diseases
,
seeing
they
are
very
Narcotick
,
insomuch
that
Tavernier
relates
,
That
when
these
Nuts
ripen
in
the
Molucoa-Islands
,
where
they
,
chiefly
grow
,
the
Birds
of
Paradise
come
flocking
to
feed
upon
them
;
which
they
have
no
sooner
done
to
any
purpose
,
but
a
Giddiness
seizing
them
,
they
fall
on
the
Ground
in
a
profound
Sleep
,
or
Doziness
,
and
lye
so
long
before
they
recover
,
that
swarms
of
huge
Ants
that
frequent
those
spicey
Woods
,
frequently
eat
off
their
Legs
,
or
intolerably
sting
,
and
kill
them
in
earnest
.

no
more
than
through
the
porous
Part
,
and

the
Ointment
of
Marsh-mallows
,
and
likewise
that
of
Tobacco
.
OAk-Tree
:
This
Tree
in
every
part
is
astringent
,
but
especially
the
Bark
,
the
Decoction
of
which
is
good
for
the
Bloody-flux
,
or
Spitting
of
Blood
.
The
Acorns
are
Diuretick
,
and
the
distilled
Water
of
a
young
Oak
is
good
for
Womens
Diseases
.
Those
that
are
cut
for
the
Stone
use
a
Bath
of
it
,
made
of
the
Bark
,
to
heal
the
Wound
or
Incision
.
The
Galls
that
grow
upon
outlandish
Oaks
,
not
only
make
Ink
,
but
are
of
many
singular
Virtues
,
as

powdered
and
drank
in
White-wine
,
to
dissolve
the
Stone
,
or
Gravel
;
ease
Pains
in
the
Bladder
,
or
Reins
,
and
cleanse
the

,
and
a

,
in

they
ease
the

and
in
a
little
time
,
the
liquid

drank
often
as
hot
as
may
be
,
removes
the
Cause
,
and

to
the
lustre
of
the
Face
and
Hands
,
being
washed
in
it
,
mixed
with
a
little
of
the
Water
of

be
very
gentle
to
bring
forth
the
remaining
Flegm
,
then
encrease
it
gradually
,
that
the
Spirit
may
follow
in
white
Clouds
;
then
continue
the
Fire
,
encreasing
it
to
the
highest
degree
:
so
will
the
volatil
Salt
and
Oil
ascend
and
come
forth
,
which
rectified
,
separate
and
keep
for
use
.
The
Salt
restores
in
Consumptions
.
It
is
good
against
all
Diseases
of
the
Head
,
Brain
,
and
Nerves
,
as
the
Apoplexy
,
Epilepsie
,
Vertigo
,
Lethargy
,
and
Palsie
;
as
also
Pleurisies
,
and
all
Obstructions
of
the
Lungs
and
Breast
,
Stoppages
of
Urin
,
Jaundice
,
and
the
like
:
You
may
take
it
from
four
grains
to
twelve
.
The
Spirit
has
the
fame
Virtue
,
but
is
weaker
;
and
therefore
may
be
taken
from
twenty
four
to
forty
,
fifty
,
or
sixty
Drops
.
The
Oil
smells
very
strong
,
and
therefore
must
be
rectified
.
The
smelling
to
it
is
good
against
Vapours
,
and
Hysterical-Fits
,
especially
being
anointed
on
the
Nostrils
.
Take
of
the
Oil
two
ounces
,
Spirit
of
Niter
one
ounce
:
mix
and
digest
them
ten
Days
,
then
add
eight
ounces
of
rectified
Spirit
of
Wine
,
and
digest
it
a
Month
;
filter
it
,
and
keep
it
close
.
This
opens
Obstructions
,
and
prevails
powerfully
against
the
Obstructions
of
the
Bowels
.
The
Dose
is
from
twelve
to
thirty
drops
.

Olives
,
their
Virtues
:
Olives
are
gathered
,
either
that
Oil
may
be
extracted
out
of
them
,
or
that
they
may
be
reserved
for
Banquets
by
pickling
them
in
Salt
and
Water
;
The
Olive
hath
in
it
a
very
restringent
Virtue
;
for
the
Decoction
of
the
Leaves
in
a
Clyster
,
stayeth
the
Flux
of
the
Belly
,
and
the

,
or
rather
flowing

singular
Virtue

applied
outwardly

nwardly
,
according
to
the
indisposed
Parts
of
the
Body
:
It
looseth
and
mollifieth
the
Belly
,
abateth
the
force
of
Poison
taken
inwardly
;

Venom
,
Burn

Scald
,
happen
on
the
outward
Parts
,
bath

well
with
this
Oil.

away
Sand
and
Gravel
,

the
Pains
in
the

,
being

the
Seed
is
of
the
greatest
Virtue
in
those
Matters
;
it
voideth
Windiness
in
the
Bowels
,
and
is
good
in
the
Biting
of
any
venomous
Creature
.
The
often
eating
of
Parsly
,
or
drinking
the
Juice
of
it
,
sweetens
the
Breath
.
Being
bruised
with
the
Crumbs
of
fine
White-bread
,
and
applied
,
it
healeth
Tetters
,
and
Ring-worms
,
and
asswageth
the
Swelling
of
the
Dugs
.
It
diminishes
the
Milk
of
Women
in
Child-bed
.
Past
of
Apricocks
:
Take
the
ripest
Apricocks
,
pare
them
very
thin
,
and
set
them
in
a
Preserving-pan
over
a
gentle
Fire
,
with
as
much
Water
as
will
keep

a
Skimmer
,
suffering

the
moisture
consume
,
and
they
come
to
something
of
a
driness
:
then
with
Sugar
boil
them
to
the
thickness
of
a
Conserve
;

is
easily
prepared

There
is
little
occasion
for
wetting
it
in
Water
;
for
it
may
be
used
as
it
is
prepared
,
if
you
let
it
not
dry
too
much
.

the
Leaf
,
Root
,
and
Stalks
,
in
Balneo
Mariae
,
being
gathered
in
the
beginning
of
the
Spring
.
It
Attenuates
,
Opens
,
Cleanses
,
and
is
Hepatick
and
Diuretick
,
insomuch
that
many
allow
it
to
cure
all
Pains
and
Effects
of
the
Stone
,
where
the
Party
frequently
and
freely
drinks
of
the
Water
:
but
this
is
certain
,
that
being
exceeding
Diuretick
,
it
nevertheless
forces
without
Pain
,
and
makes
the
Urin
come
freely
from
those
that
have
had
Obstructions
for
many
Years
;
and
,
in
some
,
it
has

been
totally
obstructed
for
many

.
Pepper
boil'd
in
White-wine
is
good
against
the
Ague
,
and
in
most
cold
Diseases
,
but
is
more
commonly
used
in
seasoning
Meats
,
than
in
Physick
;
and
indeed
is
more
proper
in
the
general
to
that
purpose
,
by
reason
its
driness
qualifies
the
moisture
that
ever
abounds
in
many
Meats
,
and
causes
it
to
digest
kindly
in
the
Stomach
.

of
the
said
Salt
,
a
pint
of
Spring-water
,
and
so
proportionably
till
the
Alembick
be
full
,
and
let

infuse
twenty
four
Hours
till
you
see
the
Water
well
coloured

which

Pericarpium
for
Agues
:
This
,
especially
for
the
Tertian-Ague
,
has
been
often
tried
with
good
Success
,
viz.
Take
a
handful
of
Rue
,
newly
gathered
,
half
a
handful
of
Sage
,
a
spoonful
of
Bay-salt
,
and
a
spoonful
of
good
Vinegar
;
beat
all
these
well
together
into
an
uniform
Mass
,
which
must
be
divided
into
two
parts
,
and
make
thereof
two
Wrist-plaisters
,
to
be
applied
at
the
usual
time
before
the
coming
of
the
Fit
,
and
to
be
renewed
,
as
occasion
requires
,
till
they
grow
dry
and
troublesom
.
Phthisick
,
a
Remedy
:
Bruise
a
handful
of

,
put
to

half
a
pound
of
Honey
,
half
an
ounce
of
Licorice-powder
,
and
Pine-Apple-kernels
,
that
have
been
boiled

White-wine
bruised

make
these
into
an
Electuary
,
and
let
the
Party
take
about
a
quarter
of
an

at
a
time
.
Some
for
this
have
only
eaten
the
Lungs
and
Heart
of
a
wild
Goose
boiled
with
Hyssop
,
and
have
found
great
ease
by
it
;
yet
I
cannot
but
recommend
the
former
to
be
the
more
effectual
in
the
Cure
.
Pickled
Artichoaks
:
Take
the
best
Bottoms
of
Artichoaks
,
parboil
them
,
and
when
they
are
cold
,
and
well
drained
,
dry
them
in
a
Cloath
to
take
away
as
much
of
the
remaining
moisture
as
can
be
;
then
putting
the
Bottoms
,
without
the
Choak
,
and
but
a
few
Leaves
remaining
on
,
into
an
earthen
Pot
,
boil
some
fair
Water
,
scum
it
till
no
more
will
rise
,
and
mix
with
it
so
much
Salt
that
it
will
bear
an
Egg
;
put
these
to
the
Bottoms
:
then
melt
sweet
Butter
,
pour
it
on
this
Water
,
and
it
will
,
by
spreading
,
make
a
Coat
to
keep
the
Air
out
;
then
tye
it
over
with
Paper
,
or
Leather
,
and
they
will
keep
all
the
Year
:
so
that
having
occasion
to
boil
them
for
serving
up
at
Table
,
lay
them
in
Water
six
Hours
to
take
out
the
Brine
,
then
boil
them
.

put

and
all
together
,
into
an
earthen
Pot
over
a
soft
Fire
,
let
them
simper
,
but
not
boil
,
about
a
quarter
of
an
hour
;
then
take
them
up
,
and
put
them
into
a
little
fair
Water
and
Vinegar
,
till
they
are
cold
,
and
then
put
them

they

Pimpernel
:
Of
this
there
are
three
sorts
,
the
one
groweth
very
great
,
and
hath
long
Roots
;
the
other
sort
is
little
,
the
third
bears
red
Flowers
,
and
grows
in
most
Gardens
:
the
Roots
of
the
two
first
,
in
which
consists
their
main
Virtue
,
boiled
in
Whitewine
,
are
very
good
for
Pains
in
the
Reins
and
Bladder
,
caused
by
the
Stone
;
for
it
driveth
out
Gravel
,
and
the
long
retained
Urine
.
The
Juice
of
the
Root
drank
in
White-wine
,
is
good
against
all
Poisons
,
or
infectious
Airs
,
and
the
Biting
of
venomous
Creatures
:
It
is
used
with
success
in
the
Plague
,
the
Root
being
stamped
and
laid
to
the
Sore
.
As
for
the
third
sort
,
though
little
differing
in
likeness
,
yet
in
Virtue
it
does
from
the
two
former
;
for
it
is
more
restringent
in
Tast
,
and
very
nourishing
;
for
which
cause
it
may
be
thought
to
be
of
a
binding
nature
:
wherefore
it
stayeth
the
Dysentery
,
and
other
Fluxes
and
Vomitings
proceeding
from
colerick
Humours
,
or
Causes
;
it
heals
Wounds
and
Ulcers
,
and
is
of
special
use
in
Ointments
that
are
made
for
Wounds
in
the
Head
,
and
for
Cankers
:
Some
Physicians
have
much
commended
it
in
the
Cure
of
pestilential
and
contagious
Fevers
,
concluding
that
the
often
drinking
the
Juice
of
it
in
Wine
,
or
other
convenient
Liquors
,
is
a
soveraign
Preservative
against
the
power
of
those
dangerous
Diseases
.
Plague
to
Preserve
from
:
Take
Barberries
,
when
they
are
ripe
,
steep
them
in
warm
Water
,
that
the
Husks
,
or
outward
Skin
may
come
off
;
then
dry
them
that
they
may
be
beaten
to
Powder
with
a
little
Salt
,
and
when
you
find
your self
somewhat
discomposed
by
the
effects
of
ill
Airs
,
hot
or
feverish
,
mix
this
Powder
with
strong
Vinegar
,
about
two
drams
,
in
half
a
quarter
of
a
pint
,
and
drink
it
up
warm
,
and
keep
your self
warm
also
,
that
you
may
sweat
upon
it
;
but
if
you
find
your self
under
such
apprehensions
,
shivering
with
Cold
,
you
must
take
the
Powder
in
strong
Wine
.
Plague-Sickness
:
Take
Water
of
Scabious
,
Endive
,
Rue
,
and
red
Roses
,
of
each
four
ounces
;
white
Dittany
,
Tormentile
,
white
Coral
,
Gentian
,
and
Bole-Armoniack
,
with
Terra-sigillata
;
reduce
those
that
are
to
be
powdered
separately
:
Infuse
them
in
the
Water
in
a
glass
Vessel
,
and
drink
about
an
ounce
at
a
time
pretty
warm
,
keeping
the
Body
warm
after
it
:
Or
,
Take
a
Viol
,
or
some
other
Glass
,
and
fill
it
to
the
third
part
with
Venice-Treacle
,
the
other
third
part
with
Brandy
,
or
Spirit
of
Wine
:
mix
these
well
together
by
shaking
,
and
take
Morning
and
Evening
half
an
ounce
in
two
ounces
of
Mint
,
Rue
,
or
Baum-water
.
But
of
all
others
in
this
contagious
Distemper
,
this
occurs
as
a
very
much
approved
Remedy
,
viz.
Take
Wallnuts
when
the
green
Husk
is
on
them
,
and
before
the
Shell
is
hardned
underneath
;
put
them
,
when
bruised
,
to
steep
in
White-wine
eight
Days
:
then
with
some
Baum
,
Rue
,
and
Tops
of
Fetherfew
,
and
Wormwood
a
little
bruised
,
put
them
into
an
Alembick
,
and
distil
them
;
then
when
you
drink
an
ounce
and
a
half
of
the
Water
,
which
you
may
do
Morning
,
Noon
,
and
Night
,
put
into
it
some
perfumed
Comfits
,
and
stir
them
well
about
till
they
are
dissolved
.
Plague-Sore
to
Break
:
Take
Bay-salt
,
Rye-meal
,
and
the
Yolks
of
Eggs
as
many
as
will
make
them
into
a
Past
;
then
spread
it
on
a
piece
of
Leather
,
and
apply
it
to
the
Sore
,
or
Carbuncle
,
and
it
will
draw
the
Poison
to
a
centre
,
so
that
the
Sore
will
ripen
;
and
being
broke
,
the
Infection
will
come
away
:
to
expedite
the
Cure
of
which
,
when
it
is
broke
,
put
the
Rump
of
a
live
Chicken
to
the
Mouth
of
the
Sore
,
so
that
its
vent
may
be
placed
on
it
,
and
it
will
draw
the
Infection
into
the
Body
of
the
Chicken
,
insomuch
that
in
a
short
time
it
will
dye
,
and
so
will
one
or
two
more
,
if
the
Infection
be
great
;
but
when
they
cease
to
do
so
,
it
is
a
sign
the
Poison
is
exhausted
,
and
the
Party
in
a
very
fair
way
of
recovering
Health
.

Mastick
in
like
manner
,
and
so
being
well
mixed
in
a
Mortar
,
that
is
pretty
hot
,
make
them
into
a
Plaister
.
This
layed
to
the
Stomach
,
very
much
strengthens
it
;
as
also
stays
Vomitings
and
Defluxions
.
Plaister
of
Melilot-Simple
:
Take
of
yellow
Rosin
clarified
eight
pound
,
yellow
Wax
four
pound
,
Mutton-suet
of
the
Kidneys
,
cleansed
from
the
Skin
and
Fibers
two
pound
;
melt
them
,
and
add
to
them
green
Melilot
cut
small
five
pound
;
and
being
thickned
,
bruise
it
with
the
afore-mention'd
Ingredients
,
and
bring
it
to
the
Consistence
of
a
Plaister
.
This
draws
very
gently
and
therefore
is
commonly
used
in
dressing
of
Blisters
,
and
in
gentle
Swellings
,
and
Tumours
.
Pleurisse
:
Distil
about
the
end
of
May
three
handfuls
of
Burnet
,
or
as
much
as
you
think
convenient
;
and
the
grieved
Party
,
drinking
of
this
,
Morning
and
Evening
,
about
half
a
quartern
at
a
time
,
will
find
wonderful
ease
,
and
in
a
little
time
be
restored
.
Polonia
to
Make
:
Take
the
Fillets
of
a
Hog
,
mince
them
very
small
,
and
do
the
like
by
Sage
,
Pennyroyal
,
and
Thyme
,
of
each
half
a
handful
stript
from
the
Stalks
:
then
season
it
with
beaten
Ginger
and
Pepper
finely
sifted
,
put
it
into
a
Hog
or
Sheep's
great
Gut
,
and
lay
it
in
Water
and
Salt
three
Nights
:
then
boil
it
gently
for
fear
of
breaking
,
and
hang
it
up
in
a
Chimney
,
or
dry
place
,
and
they
will
keep
a
long
time
.
Pomatum
:
Take
Bacon-lard
,
and
by
washing
it
well
,
and
often
melting
,
take
out
the
Salt
,
then
boil
a
handful
of
Oates
,
and
some
white
Starch
in
it
,
and
strain
out
the
oily
part
,
which
is
of
excellent
use
for
Chaps
,
Sores
,
Burns
,
Scalds
,
as
also
to
make
the
Skin
supple
,
smooth
,
and
plump
.
Pomegranet
:
Of
these
there
are
three
sorts
,
Sweet
,
Sharp
,
and
Winy
;
and
the
quality
of
them
all
is
Restringent
,
but
not
alike
;
for
by
their
Tast
you
may
judge
their
difference
,
and
their
Grains
are
more
binding
and
drying
than
their
Juice
,
the
Rind
more
than
the
Grain
,
and
the
Blossoms
have
the
same
Virtue
with
the
Fruit.
The
powder
of
a
Pomgranet
dried
in
an
Oven
,
in
a
new
earthen
Pot
close
stopt
,
is
singular
good
to
stay
the
Flux
of
the
Belly
.
The
Leaves
of
the
Pomegranet-Tree
well
beaten
,
and
the
Juice
of
them
mixed
with
the
Oil
of
Roses
,
does
very
much
help
the
inveterate
Pains
of
the
Head
;
and
so
sovereign
it
is
,
that
most
hold
that
no
venomous
Creature
will
come
near
the
Boughs
of
it
:
for
which
reason
the
Ancients
laid
them
in
their
Beds
,
and
stuck
them
about
their
Houses
.
The
Decoction
of
the
Root
of
a
Pomgranet-Tree
being
drank
,
kills
the
large
Worms
in
the
Belly
,
and
causes
them
to
be
cast
out
.
Pork-Pie
:
The
Pork
you
intend
to
put
into
Pies
,
must
have
the
Skin
taken
off
;
then
cut
the
Pork
in
streaks
,
and
take
half
an
ounce
of
Ginger
,
and
the
like
quantity
of
Pepper
well
beaten
,
slice
or
scrape
in
two
Nutmegs
,
season
it
pretty
well
with
Salt
,
and
put
in
a
little
fair
Water
that
has
been
well
boiled
and
scummed
;
and
so
bake
it
sufficiently
,
and
serve
it
up
.
Poppy-Red
:
The
Flowers
are
very
cooling
and
asswage
Pain
,
and
bring
Sleep
to
weary
Eyes
;
and
therefore
are
chiefly
used
for
Fevers
,
Pleurisies
,
and
Quinsies
,
and
other
Diseases
,
especially
of
the
Breast
,
that
need
cooling
Medicins
,
and
for
immoderate
Fluxes
,
The
Conserve
,
the
distilled
Water
,
and
the
Powder
of
them
are
greatly
in
use
;
but
the
Syrup
most
.
To
make
it
,
Take
the
fresh
Flowers
of
Red
Poppies
two
pound
,
and
pour
upon
them
two
quarts
of
Spring-water
well
warmed
,
press
them
out
the
next
Day
,
and
infuse
the
quantity
of
fresh
Flowers
in
the
Liquor
,
as
before
;
then
strain
it
,
and
put
in
as
much
Sugar
as
the
Liquor
weighs
,
and
so
make
it
into
a
Syrup
,
by
boiling
it
to
a
thickness
over
a
gentle
Fire
.
Poppies
,
a
Syrup
:
Take
the
Heads
of
black
Poppies
freshly
gathered
six
ounces
,
and
of
white
ones
,
not
thoroughly
ripe
,
eight
ounces
,
Aqua
Coelestis
two
quarts
;
boil
them
to
the
consumption
of
one
quart
of
the
Liquid
,
and
put
therein
Sugar
and
Penids
,
of
each
eight
ounces
:
boil
them
to
a
Syrup
.
This
is
excellent
good
to
allay
the
Heat
of
the
Forehead
,
or
when
it
too
much
afflicts
the
Brain
.
It
is
given
with
success
in
Frensies
,
or
to
those
that
are
restless
,
and
cannot
sleep
well
,
as
also
for
Catarrhs
and
Coughs
.
Pottage
:
To
make
this
very
excellent
,
nourishing
,
and
conducing
to
Health
and
Strength
,
take
the
Knuckle
end
of
a
Leg
of
Veal
,
very
largely
cut
,
put
into
it
a
gallon
,
or
six
quarts
of
Spring-water
,
a
pint
of
Oatmeal
sifted
very
fine
,
Pennyroyal
,
Parsly
,
Thyme
,
and
Winter-savory
of
each
a
little
Faggot
,
or
bundle
,
unshread
;
also
Sweet-marjoram
,
Sorrel
,
Violet
and
Marrigold-leaves
:
you
may
let
it
stand
a
whole
Night
over
a
gentle
Fire
,
and
boil
it
up
the
next
Morning
,
with
some
Mace
,
Currans
,
Harts-horn
Shavings
and
Sugar
;
then
strain
it
,
and
eat
it
warm
.
This
is
very
good
against
a
Consumption
,
or
any
Defect
in
the
Lungs
,
or
Stomach
.

Purple-Violet
,
its
Use
and
Virtues
.
It
is
in
its
nature
temperate

change
the
ill
quality

to
evacuate
them
chiefly
.
Violets
purge
Choler
,
and
qualifie
the
vehemency
thereof
:
They
are
good
for
the
Pains
in
the
Head
which
proceed
from
Heat
;
cause
gentle
Sleep
,
and
mollifie
the
Pricking
of
the
Breast
,
and
of
the
Lungs
,
and
are
profitable
against
the
Quinsie
,
and
the
falling
of
the
Palate
in
the
Mouth
,
and
Inflammations
of
the
Breast
,
and
Side
,
and
Stomach-Thirst
,
being
dried
and
concocted
in
Whitewine
;
They
open
Obstructions
of
the
Liver
,
and
cause
Inflammations
to
cease
:
They
are
very
good
in
the
Jaundice
,
Black
or
Yellow
:
The
Syrup
mollifies
the
Belly
,
and
is
good
in
Pleurisies
:
and
indeed
is
a
Flower
more
to
be
admired
by
all
in
Physick
than
for
its
charming
Colour
,
and
fragrant
Smell
.

Quicksilver
Purify'd
:
Put
half
a
pound
of
the

in
a
large
earthen
Pot
well
glazed
,
set

on
a

Coal-Fire
,
and

a
pound
and
a
half
of
flowing
Mercury
into
a
piece

,
tye
it
in

knot
,
and
when
the
Brimstone
is
well
melted
,
drop
the
Quicksilver
upon
it
,
and
press
the
Knot
between
your
Hands
,
so
that
it
may
pass
through
the
Pores
of
the
Leather
,
stirring
the
Substance
in
the
mean
time
with
a
wooden
Spatula
,
and
continuing
the
pressing
forth
,
and
stirring
the
Mercury
till
it
is
all
pressed
through
,
and
uniting
with
the
Sulphur
,
they
appear
a
black
Mass
:
then
let

beat
it
into

,
and
so
put
it
into
an
earthen
Pot
proper
for
Sublimation

hole
with
a
piece
of
Paper
;
begin
the
Sublimation
with
a
gradual
Fire
,
encreasing
it
some
Hours
,
by
which
means
the
Mercury
being
incorporated
with
a
portion
of
Sulphur
requisite
for
it
,
it
will
sublime
to
the
top
of
the
uppermost
Pot
,
leaving
some
f●…ces
in
the
lower
Pot
;
then
when
the
Vessels
are
cold

you
will
find
the
Mercury
sublimated
into
Cinnabar
of
a
very
red
Colour
,
veined
with
long
brown
glittering
Streaks
;
but
the
Colour
will
appear
more
fresh
and
lively
,
when
it
is
broken
in
pieces
and
ground
;
and
therefore
it
is
that
the
Painters
make
use
of
it
in
this
manner
.

for
three
or
four
days
,
covered

then
cut

in
Quarters

Quinsies
to
Cure
:
Bruise
thirty
two
ounces
of
purified
Salt-Petre
,
put
it
in
a
crucible
which
must
be
put
in
a
very
hot
Fire
in
a
Furnace
,
and
when
the
Salt-Petre
is
melted
,
put
to
it
an
ounce
of
Flower
of
Sulphur
,
by
a
spoonful
at
a
time
,
so
that
the
matter
will
presently
fall
into
a
flame
,
and
the
more
volatil
Spirit
of
the
Salt-Petre
will
evaporate
;
and
when
the
flame
is
over
,
the
matter
will
remain
in
a
very
clear
Fusion
.

pair
of
Tongs
,
Take
out
the
Crucible
,
and
turn
it
upside
down
into
a
very
clean
Bason

little
warmed
.
This
beaten
into
Powder
,
is
taken
with
good
Success
in
the
dangerous
Distemper
called
the
Quinsie
.
It
also
cools

works
by
Urine
in
burning
Fevers

that
proceed
from
Heat
and
Obstructions
,

it
will

usually
planted

shadowy
places

though
it
be
but
of
bad
Digestion

it
is
held
when
eaten
raw
in
Sallads
or
the
like
,
to
breed
ill
Humours
,
and
corrupt
blood
;
yet
it
wonderfully
helpeth
those

Gravel
,

the
stoppage
of

Urine
.

then
strain
them
out
,
and
sweeten
the
Liquid
part
with
fine
Sugar
,
and
add
,
if
you
please
,
a
grain
of
Musk.
This
greatly
revives
the
Heart
,
and
is
good
,
a
spoonful
or
two
taken
at
a
time
,
in
violent
Fevers
.
Red
drying
Ointment
:
Take
Olive-oil
two
pound
,
and
white
Bees-wax
half
a
pound
;
melt
them
together
over
a
gentle
Fire
;
then
take
them
off
,
and
stir
them
together
with
a
wooden
Spatula
till
they
begin
to
thicken
,
and
when
they
are
cold
,
add
the
following
Powders
,
viz.
Calaminaris-stone
,
and
Bole-Armoniack
,
of
each
four
ounces

Ointment
is
drying
and
cooling
:
it
closes
and
strengthens
,
and
stops
Defluxions
that
fall
upon
the
Parts
.
It
digests
and
consumes
the
superfluous
moisture
of
Wounds
,
and
Ulcers
,
and
is
of
great
use
to
finish
the
healing
Part
,
and
hasten
the
Cure
,
&c.
Redness
in
the
Eyes
:
This
often
proceeds
from
the

necessary
,
if

the
Shoulders
;
and
on
the
contrary
side
to
open
the
Head-vein
,
and
purge
the
Body
;
and
outwardly
to
apply

by
degrees
,
cooling
and
keeping
them
close

in
.
Or
,
Take

Plantane
,
with
often
shaking
them

wash
the
Eyes
with
the
Water
often
,
and
it
will
take
away
the
Redness
and
Pains
,
asswage
the
Swelling
of
the
Eyes
that
have
long
so
continued
,
and

Mouth-water
for
impostumated

,
and
dissolve
the

in
the
Juices
,
and
so
put

in
with
them
,
and
cover
the
Pot
:
set
it
boiling
in
a
Bath
till
the
moisture
is
near
consumed
,
then
press
out
strongly
the
Matter
;
and
having
separated
the
Oil
from
the
Faeces
,
take
the
same
Oil
three
pound
,
white
Bees-wax
nine
ounces
,
melt
the
Wax
in
the
same
Pot
and
Bath
,
then
the
Pot
being
taken
off
,
stir
the
Ointment
with
a
wooden
Spatula
;
and
when
it
thickens
and
grows

sifted
the
Powders
thus
prepared
,
mix
them
with
the
Ointment
,
stirring

This
is
a
good
Styptick

applied
with
success
to
the
Reins
to
strengthen
them
;
also
the
Ligaments
of
the

to
consolidate
what
Defects

have
happened
in
difficult
Labour

It
is
also
very
proper
against
the
Relaxation
of
the
strait
Guts

the
Fundament
;
and
to

also
layed
upon
the
Stomach
to
stay

This
Ointment
causes

and
is
the
best
known
for
Cleansing
and
Consolidation
.

Flegm
.
It
is
excellent
boiled
and
taken
in
Posset-drink
before
the
cold

the
consistence
of
Searcloath
,
is
of
singular
use
.
The
same
way
that
this
is
prepared
,
you
may
prepare
the
Oils
of
Myrtle
,
Melilot
,
Elder-Water
,
Lilies
or
Nimphaea
,
Chamomil
,
Violets
,
Lilies
,
&c.
Roses-Red
,
Dry
:
There
is
a
Syrup
however
to
be
made
of
these
,
upon
necessity
;
and
to
do
it
,
Take
two
quarts
of
Water
,
make
it
pretty
warm
,
and
infuse
in
it
for
the
space
of
twenty
four
Hours
four
or
five
handfuls
of
dried
Roses
;
and
when
the
Scent
of
them
is
gone
mostly
into
the
Water
,
put
fresh
ones
,
and
squeeze
them
at
the
taking
out
,
and
into
this
Water
dissolve
two
pound
of
white
Sugar
,
and
so
dissolve
it
into
a
Syrup
.
This
mitigates
the
hot
Diseases
of
the
Brain
,
asswages
Thirst
,
strengthens
the
Stomach
,
causes
Sleep
,
stays
the
Flux
of
the
Belly
,
and
agglutinates
and
mundifies
Ulcers
.
Roses
,
a
Simple
Oil
:
Take
fresh
Red
Roses
bruised
two
pound
,
the
Juice
of
them
half
a
pound
,
and
common
Oil
five
pints
;
put
them
all
together
in
an
earthen
glazed
Pot
covered
,
and
let
them
,
if
possible
,
macerate
thirty
or
forty
Days
in
the
Sun
;
then
boil
them
in
Balneo
Mariae
,
and
press
out
the
Oil
very
hard
,
and
keep
it
for
use
.
It
is
cooling
,
asswages
Heat
,
mollifies
Swellings
,
and
is
good
in
Burns
,
or
Scalds
.
Roses-White
Infused
:
To
infuse
Roses
,
and
bring
them
to
a
Syrup
,
Take
of
White
Roses
half
a
Peck
,
clean
pickt
from
the
Stalks
,
infuse
them
over
a
gentle
Fire
in
a
gallon
of
Spring-water
,
strain
out
the
Water
,
and
squeeze
the
remaining
Juice
out
of
the
Roses
into
it
.
Take
of
this
Water
five
pints
,
to
which
the
Gallon
ought
to
be
consumed
in
infusion
,
clarified
Sugar
four
pound
,
boil
them
over
a
gentle
Fire
to
the
thickness
of
a
Syrup
.
This
Syrup
extracts
thin
offensive
Choler
from
the
Intrails
,
and
waterish
Humours
from
the
Stomach
;
and
is
very
good
to
be
given
to
Children
,
old
People
,
and
such
as
are
weakned
by
Sickness
,
and
the
like
.
Rosin
,
its
Virtues
:
The
Rosin
of
the
Larch
or
Turpentine-Tree
,
is
hot
,
emollient
,
cleansing
,
healing
,
vulnerary
,
and
pectoral
,
&c.
it
heals
Ulcers
in
the
Lungs
,
helps
and
stops
the
Gonorrhoea
.
It
gently
provokes
Urin
,
and
opens
the
Obstruction
of
the
Reins
,
Uriters
,
and
Bladder
.
The
Dose
in
Powder
is
from
one
dram
to
two
drams
.
Outwardly
,
it
is
used
in
Balsams
,
Ointments
,
and
Emplaisters
.
It
softens
Tumours
,
and
ripens
them
,
if
made
up
with
Beef
or
Mutton-suet
.
It
ripens
and
heals
Felons
and
Whitlows
,
and
cures
them
when
they
break
,
cleanses
Ulcers
,
and
heals
green
Wounds
;
is
much
available
in
the
Pains
of
the
Gout
,
and
all
other
Aches
,
and
Pains
proceeding
from
a
cold
Cause
.
Helps
Strains
and
Hurts
of
the
Nerves
and
Muscles
,
and
strengthens
weak
Limbs
.
Of
this
,
Spirits
,
Oil
,
and
Balsam
,
are
extracted
,
by
distillation
,
in
a
large
Retort
in
Sand
,
distilling
first
with
a
very
gentle
Heat
,
till
all
the
Flegm
,
and
Spirit
,
(
in
which
is
contained
the
volatil
Salt
)
is
come
over
;
and
then
gradually
encreasing
the
Fire
to
force
over
the
Oil
and
Balsam
,
which
are
to
be
rectified
from
Colcothar
,
or
Bonet
Ashes
.
This
Spirit
is
very
Excellent
:
For
it
takes
off
the
tartarous
Mucilage
in
the
Lungs
,
Reins
,
Breast
,
and
Stomach
,
Uriters
,
and
Bladder
,
It
hinders
the
generation
of
the
Stone
and
Gout
.
The
Dose
is
from
one
to
three
drams
.
The
Oil
dissolves
Tumours
of
the
Gout
,
strengthens
the
Nerves
,
cures
the
Palsie
,
Tumours
,
Wounds
,
and
Ulcers
,
and
all
manner
of
Convulsions
,
Cramps
,
Aches
,
Pains
,
Strains
,
and
Bruises
proceeding
from
a
cold
Cause
,
or
Violence
,
the
Part
grieved
being
often
anointed
with
it
.
The
Balsam
has
the
same
Virtue
,
but
not
so
penetrating
,
and
therefore
is
mostly
used
in
the
curing
old
Sores
,
Fistula's
,
Ulcers
,
Pain
in
the
Gout
and
Sciatica's
,
&c.
Rue
:
This
is
for
its
wonderful
Virtues
called
the
Herb
of
Grace
.
'T
is
very
Attenuative
,
Incisive
,
and
Digestive
,
Resolutive
,
and
Provocative
.
It
driveth
out
Windiness
,
by
reason
of
its
heat
in
the
third
Degree
,
and
not
only
sharp
in
Tast
,
but
bitter
also
,
by
reason
whereof
it
may
resolve
and
penetrate
gross
and
clammy
Humours
;
and
through
the
same
qualities
provoke
Urine
.
It
consists
of
subtil
Parts
,
and
is
numbred
among
Medicins
,
which
are
great
dryers
;
and
therefore
it
is
good
against
Inflammations
,
asswaging
any
lustful
Appetite
.
The
Seed
boiled
,
and
drank
in
Wine
,
greatly
resists
Poison
.
The
Leaves
eaten
alone
,
or
made
into
a
Conserve
;
if
the
Party
take
half
an
ounce
fasting
,
it
resists
ill
Airs
,
causeth
pestilential
Fevers
,
and
consequently
the
Plague
.
The
Decoction
drank
,
easeth
Pains
in
the
Breasts
and
Sides
,
Inflammations
of
the
Liver
,
and
the
Pains
of
the
Gout
;
also
the
Shaking
of
Agues
.
Being
eaten
raw
,
it
cleareth
the
Sight
,
and
is
good
against
Difficulties
of
Breathing
,
and
the
Cough
.
Being
mixed
with
French
Cherries
dried
,
it
allayeth
the
Pains
and
Heaviness
of
the
Eyes
:
and
with
Oil
of
Roses
and
Vinegar
,
it
easeth
the
Head-ach
.
Being
bruised
and
put
up
the
Nostrils
it
stays
Bleeding
.
The
distilled
Water
of
it
infused
into
an
equal
portion
of
Wine
and
Rose-water
,
is
very
soveraign
for
any
Pains
in
the
Head
,
or
Stomach
.
Rue
of
the
Meadow
:
This
is
to
be
found
on
the
Borders
of
moist
Meadows
,
and
by
Ditch
sides
,
flowring
towards
the
end
of
July
,
and
beginning
of
August
.
Dioscorides
highly
approves
it
for
Bruises
,
and
the
healing
of
old
Sores
,
being
applied
to
them
Poultiswise
,
or
they
washed
with
the
Juice
:
The
distilled
Water
and
Flower
of
this
Herb
have
the
like
Virtue
Some
People
use
it
shred
among
common
Pot-herbs
in
their
Broth
,
for
opening
Obstructions
of
the
Body
,
and
to
render
it
soluble
:
But
the
Roots
clean
washed
,
shred
,
or
sliced
and
boiled
in
Ale
,
I
hold
to
operate
more
in
that
kind
,
than
the
Leaves
;
yet
they
provoke
Stool
,
but
very
gently
.
The
Roots
boiled
in
Water
,
destroy
Lice
and
Vermin
,
incident
to
humane
Bodies
,
by
only
anointing
the
Places
with
their
Decoction
.
Camerarius
tells
us
,
That
it
is
in
great
Esteem
in
Italy
,
as
an
Antidote
against
the
Plague
,
and
that
the
Saxons
use
it
with
success
in
the
Yellow
Jaundice
.

Rupture-Wort
:
This
is
mostly
found
on
dry
,
sandy
,
and
rockey
Places
.
It
is
Excellent
in
the
Curing
of
Ruptures
,
not
only
in
Children
,
but
also
in
those
of
Years
,
if
the
Distemper
be
not
too
inveterate
;
by
taking
a
dram
of
the
Powder
of
the
dried
Herb
in
a
glass
of
Wine
for
a
considerable
time
:
or
the
distilled
Water
or
Juice
of
the
green
Herb
taken

manner
.
It
helpeth
likewise
all
other
Fluxes
in

,
Vomitings
,
and
the
Gonorrhoea
,
and
Running
of
the
Reins
,
by

Yellow-Jaundice
,
Defluctions
,
and
foul
Ulcers
.
Rushes
:
These
some
hold
so
inconsiderable
,
that
it
is
of
no
value
,
but
for
making
Candle-Wicks
:
But
learned
Physicians
,
who
have
searched
more
curiously
into
the
abstruse
Retirements
of
Nature
,
are
not
of
their
Opinion
.
Dioscorides
,
Galen
,
and
Pliny
agree
,
being
powdered
and
drank
in
Wine
,
it
stayeth
the
Lask
in
Women's
Courses
,
provokes
Sleep
,
(
but
must
be
taken
with
caution
,
lest
they
cause
Pains
in
the
Head
.
)
The

,
viz.
the
Decoction
,
kills
Worms
in
the
Belly
,
and
brings
them
away
,
especially
if
Coriander-seeds
be
boiled
with
it
.
SAdness

in
an
Oven
,
and
beat
them
into
Powder
:
and
being

of
Licorice
,
make
them
up
into

Saffron
:
The
best
Saffron
is
that
which
tinctures
your
Hands
upon
a
gentle
touch
,
and
smelleth
somewhat
sharp
,
and
is
not
very
brittle
.
In
property
it
is
good
for
the
weakness
of
the
Stomach
,
and
faintness
of
Heart
;
and
being
taken
in
a
small
quantity
of
Wine
,
it
preserveth
from
Drunkenness
,
and
healeth
the
Bitings
of
Serpents
,
and
Stinging
of
Spiders
:
It
is
restrative
.
The
too
much
Smell
thereof
is
bad
for
the
Brain
,
and
the
taking
too
much
of
it
is
troublesome
to
the
Spirits
.
Sage
:
This
is
a
singular
Remedy
against
all
cold
and
phlegmatick
Diseases
in
the
Head
,
and
against
all
Pains
of
the
Joints
,
either
being
taken
in
Drink
,
or
applied
in
Fomentation
;
wherefore
it
is
very
good
for
those
that
have
the
Falling-sickness
,
or
subject
to
Lethargies
,
or
have
at
certain
times
their
Members
benumb'd
,
or
senseless
:
It
availeth
much
against
the
Defluxions
of
Flegm
,
and
Maladies
,
incident
to
the
Breast
;
and
is
very
advantageous
for
Women
with
Child
to
eat
it
often
,
especially
if
they
are
subject
to
travail
before
their
time
;
for
it
keepeth
the
Child
in
the
Womb
,
and
doth
quicken
it
.
If
a
Person
subject
to
spit
Blood
,
takes
three
or
four
spoonfuls
of
Honey
with
the
Juice
of
Sage
,
double
the
quantity
,
in
a
Morning
fasting
,
the
Blood
will
be
stay'd
in
twice
or
thrice
so
doing
.
The
use
of
Sage
in
Pottage
,
and
otherwise
,
serves
to
sharpen
the
Appetite
,
and
cleanse
the
Stomach
,
that
's
oppressed
with
ill
Humours
.
In
fine
,
when
there
is
any
occasion
for
heating
,
drying
,
or
binding
,
use
this
Herb
as
a
very
good
Medicine
.

long
Root
,

in
a
Dyet-drink

white
Sarsnet
,

spread
it
on
a
smooth
clean
Board
long
ways
,
soap
it
well
,
yet
let
it
remain
on
but
very
thin
,
then
raise
a
gentle
Lather
with
a
small
hard
Brush
,
by
brushing
it
the
right
way
of
the
Silk
;
and
so
in
order
turning
it
,
do
the
other
side
in
the
same
manner
:
then
cleanse
it
with
fair
Water
,
and
make
a
new
Lather
hot
,
and
so
renew
it
three
times
with
turning
;
then
cast
the
piece
into
hot
Water
,
where
a
little
Gum
,
with
a
small
quantity
of
Smalts
has
been
dissolved
;
let
it
lye
so
covered
a
convenient
time
,
fold
it
smooth
,
and
dry
it
as
well
as
you
can
,
by
clapping
it
between
your
Hands
,
and
so
dry
it
over
Brimstone
,
spread
it
on
a
Table
,
and
iron
it
on
the
right
side
.
Black
Sarsnets
are
manag'd
the
same
way
in
washing
,
though
they
are
generally
rinced
in
Small-beer
,
without
any
Gum
,
or
on
a
Woolen
Cloath
.
Coloured
Silks
may
be
washed
as
white
Sarsnet
,
avoiding
the
blue
Water
,
or
drying
over
Brimstone
,
for
that
fades
their
Colour
.

Savory
:
Of
this
Herb
there
are
two
kinds
,
one
like
to
Thyme
,
and
the
other
greater
,
and
more
branched
.
The
latter
being
used
as
a
Cataplasm
,
with
Wheat-flower
sod
together
in
Wine
,
is
available
against
the
Sciatica
;
but
the
use
of
it
is
chiefly
good
for
healthful
Persons
,
whether
it
be
in
Pottage
,
or
Sauce
,
or
otherwise
;
and
being
dried
in
the
shade
,
and
brought
into

,
it
may
be
used
instead
of
Spices
.
Sausages
to

or
two
in
Salt
and
Water
,
Take
off
the
Fat

Beef-suet
,
season
it
with
half
an
ounce
of
beaten
Cloves
,
and
an
ounce
of
Pepper
,
and
the
like
quantity
of

beaten
fine
,
shred
small
,
a
handful
of

and
Rosemary
,
and
break

a
dozen
Eggs
,
and
mix
all
well
together
;
then
fill
the
great
Gut
of
a
well
washed
Hog
,
and
boil
them
gently
:
then
dry
them
in
a
Chimney
,
and
they
will
keep
excellent
good
for
a
very
considerable
time
.
Sausages

and
so
with
a
small
matter
of

,
make
it
into
a
Past
in
lengths
,
or
Balls
:
and
when
you
fry
it
,
cut
it
out
in
pretty
thick
slices
.

,
cures
Imposthumes
,
Pleurisies
,
Coughs
,

,
Botches
,

let
it
cool
,
and
so
spreading
some

this
Herb

excellent
Virtue

Obstructions
of
the
Lungs
,

Spleen
,
and
is
an
Antidote
against

,
and
is
helpful
in
Wounds
,
curing

We
have
it
from
good
Hands
,
That
a
large
Dose
of
the
Decoction
of
this
Herb
,
taken
for
some
time
,
expelled
a
Stone
from
the
Kidney
of
a
Woman
that
had
been
tormented
with
it
for
fifteen
or
sixteen
Years
.
Also
a
Woman
that
was
accunted
Barren
seven
Years
,
conceived
upon
taking
the
Powder
of

distilled
Water
for
a
considerable
time
.
The
Syrup
is
of
great
use
in
the
Disease
of
the
Lungs
;
and
a
Person
who
had
a
very
dangerous
Ulcer
in
his
Leg
,
found
Ease
,
and
in
a
short
time
a
Remedy
,
by

,
and
applying
wet
Rags
dipt
in
the
said
Water
,
by
taking
away
the
Inflammation
,
and
all
the
Symptoms
that
accompanied
it
.
One

a
Fistula
in
the
Breast
,
and
in
vain
had
used
divers
Medicaments
,
it
's
said
,
was
cured
with
this
Water
,
by

taking
it
.
Rags

it
,
and

do
make
Scabs
fall
away
in
Children
,
and
then
wash
them
over

Water
of

Whey
.
But
for
all
these

make

up
into
a
Mass
very
hard
with
Rain-water
,
as
much
as
will
conveniently
do
it
,
from
this
Mass
,
by
dividing
into
Balls
,
in
the
bigness
of
a
Hazle-nut
,
and
let
them
dry
in
the
Sun
a
considerable
time
;
and
when
they
are
dried
,
put
them
into
a
large
earthen
Pot
,
or
a
Glass
that
may
be
luted
,
a
third
part
of
it
being
left

,
place
the

in
a

fit
to

a
large

drops
,
pour
out

will
be
hot
,
and
full
of
white
Clouds

cold
,
and
they
disappear
,
then
unlute
the
Junctures
,
for
the
operation
is
at
an
end
;
and
then
you
will
have
the
Spirit
of

in
the
Receiver
.
So

it
into
a
glass
or
earthen
Bottle
,
and
stop

This
singular
Spirit
has
an
aperitive
quality
,
and
therefore
is
used
in
Juleps
to
an
agreeable
Acidity
for
such

are
subject
to
the
Stone
,
or
Gravel
;
't

in
a
double
Vessel
in
a
gentle
Sand-Bath

This
is
taken
more
safely
inwardly
than
the
former
,
because
it
is
less

:
It
may
be
given
from
four
to
twelve
drops

the
rectified
Spirit
of
Wine
:
then
distil
them
according
to
Art
,
and
keep
the
Spirit
for
your
use
.
This
is
excellent
,
and
most
effectual
to
suppress
the
Vapours
that
arise
from
the
Matrix
,
and
to
open
Obstructions
.
It
is
to
he
given
from
one
to
two
or
three
drams
at
a
time
in
Hysterick
Waters
,
or
Decoctions
:
It
may
likewise
be
put
up
the
Nostrils
,
or
applied
to
the
Temples
,
or
Navel
,
with
good
Success
.
Spirit
of
Wine

Distil
:

put
it
into
an
Alembick
,
draw
it
off
,
and
rectifie
it
into
what
heighth
you
please
.
It
is
excellent
,
taken
in
cold
Distempers
,
or
to
mix
with
any
Cordial
Water
,
to
temper
them
with
heat
,
according
to
the
degrees
the
Distempers
require
,
for
which
they
are
to
be
taken
.
The
Joints
afflicted
with
cold
Pains
,
being
bathed
with
it
,
ease
them
:
It
's
good
in
the
Gout
and
Sciatica
,
the
afflicted
Parts
bathed
with
it
,
and
is
used
for
Lacca
to
change
Silver
to
a
gold
colour
,
as
also
in
Varnish
,
and
in
making
up
sundry
Medicins
.
Baum
,
Rue
,
and
the
Leaves
of
Walnuts
being
beaten
and
made
up
into
a
Conserve
with
it
,
resist
the
Plague
and
pestilential
Fevers
.
Spirit
of
Wine
,
another
:
This
Spirit
,
when
made
the
best
way
,
is
drawn
from
Branny
chiefly
,
and
not
of
that
which
is
usually
called
Wine
.
Four
gallons
then
of
the
best
Brandy
must
be
mixed
with
four
quarts
of
ordinary
Salt
,
and
put
into
an
Alembick
,
or
Bay-salt
dried
and
finely
powdered
.
Lute
the
Head
,
and
do
it
over
a
gentle
Fire
,
lest
being
too
long
a
drawing
it
off
,
it
waft
and
consume
too
much
;
that
which
is
the
highest
or
rectified
part
being
fired
,
will
burn
all
away
;
but
the
second
Spirit
will
not
do
so
.
This
makes
curious
Tinctures
in
chymical
Operations
,
and
being
upon
other
occasions
outwardly
applied
,
it
discusses
Tumours
,
and
cures
Burns
,
if
taken

dry
on
before
a
gentle

Syder
to
Make
and
Order
:
Take
your
Apples
,
as
you
fancy
the
Syder
most
convenient
to
your
Palate
,
viz.
either
Red-streaks
,
Pearmains
,
Pippins
,
Golden-Pippins
,
&c.
when
they
are
indifferent
ripe
,
so
that
upon
shaking
they
will
fall
with
tolerable
Ease
:
bruise
or
grind
your
Apples
very
small
;
and
then
putting
them
into
a
Hair-Bag
,
squeeze
out
the
Juice
in
a
Press
by
degrees
,
and
not
over-hastily
:
put
up
the
Liquid
part
into
a
Cask
seasoned
by
burning
a
Rag
in
it
,
at
the
end
of
a
Stick
,
dipped
in
Brimstone
,
when
the
Smoak
is
evaporated
,
and
the
Vessel
washed
with
a
little
warm
Liquor
that
has
run
through
the
second
straining
,
or
Husks
of
the
Apples
:
and
to
make
it
work
kindly
,
put
in
a
little
Flower
and
Honey
made
up
in
a
Past
,
and
enclosed
in
a
thin
Rag
;
so
let
it
stand
in
a
moderate
warm
place
six
or
seven
Days
;
and
then
draw
it
off
from
the
Lees
or
Settlings
into
another
Cask
so
ordered
or
Bottle
it
up
at
your
discretion
.
But
in
Bottling
take
care
to
leave
an
inch
space
from
the
Cork
,
lest
it
working
or
fermenting
again
,
it
either
force
out
the
Cork
,
on
break
the
Bottles
.
Or
if
such
Danger
appear
by
the
singing
of
the
Air
thro'
the
porous
Part
of
the
Cork
,
you
may
open
them
and
give
them
vent
,
or
have
a
Quill
run
through
the
Cork
,
which
you
may
stop
and
open
at
pleasure
with
less
danger
and
difficulty
.
And
so
of
the
Cask
,
in
Winter
keep
it
in
a
warm
place
for
fear
of
chilling
or
freezing
:
and
in
Summer
in
a
cold
Place
,
lest
it
ferment
;
and
that
tainting
it
,
it
grow
musty
or
thick
.
You
may
likewise
preserve
it
from
these
latter
,
by
putting
a
little
lump
of
Loaf-Sugar
for
it
to
feed
on
.
Syder
of
Codlins
:
This
is
usually
made
for
present
spending
;
for
it
will
not
keep
longer
than
Autumn
,
though
it
is
of
an
excellent
Tast
,
and
very
pleasant
,
and
sparkling
to
the
Eye
;
and
so
called
Summer-Syder
.
To
do
this
,
Take
your
Codlins
when
they
begin
to
be
ripe
,
and
lay
them
in
Hay
or
Straw
three
Days
,
after
they
are
gathered
,
to
sweat
a
little
;
then
cut
them
in
quarters
,
and
take
out
the
Coar
and
Kernels
,
and
bruise
them
as
the
former
;
squeeze
out
the
Liquid
part
,
and
let
it
run
into
a
Vessel
beneath
the
Press
,
through
a
very
fine
Hair
or
Tiffany-Sieve
,
that
may
stop
the
Fragments
that
will
come
away
with
it
.
Being
drawn
off
,
warm
it
over
a
gentle
Fire
,
but
suffer
it
not
to
boil
,
scum
off
the
part
that
bubbles
up
,
and
sprinkle
into
it
some
fine
powdered
white
Sugar-candy
;
then
put
it
up
into
a
Cask
,
and
with
a
little
of
it
,
heat
about
half
a
pint
of
Ale-Yeast
,
and
pour
it
in
very
warm
;
and
so
let
it
work
for
Twenty
four
Hours
,
then
draw
it
off
into
another
Cask
,
or
Bottles
,
and
leave
either
of
them
open
ten
or
twelve
Hours
in
a
cool
place
till
it
is
fit
to
stop
up
close
:
and
so
ordering
it
,
it
will
be
fit
to
drink
in
eight
or
ten
Days
,
and
have
a
curious
cooling
tart
flavour
with
it
.
Syder
another
way
:
Take
such
Apples
as
are
suitable
to
your
Palate
,
pare
them
,
and
cutting
out
the
Core
and
Kernels
,
slice
them
,
and
boil
them
in
a
sufficient
quantity
of
Water
till
a
third
part
be
consumed
.
A
Peck
of
sliced
Apples
to
a
Barrel
of
Water
,
when
first
put
in
,
before
the
consumption
,
is
sufficient
.
Then
strain
the
Water
from
the
boiled
Apples
,
and
pour
it
on
three
Pecks
of
bruised
Apples
that
are
not
boiled
;
and
so
letting
it
,
after
fourteen
or
fifteen
Hours
steeping
,
run
from
them
;
then
press
out
what
will
not
otherways
come
away
by
the
swelling
of
the
Apples
,
and
put
it
up
for
use
.
Let
it
work
sufficiently
;
then
stop
it
close
,
and
be
careful
to
mind
it
,
also
giving
vent
,
if
there
be
occasion
,
lest
it
force
the
Cask
,
or
Bottles
;
and
when
it
is
fined
,
it
will
be
in
Colour
and
Tast
like
Champaign
Wine
.
Syder
another
Way
:
Take
a
peck
of
Apples
and
slice
them
,
and
boil
them
in
a
Barrel
of
Water
,
till
the
third
part
be
wasted
;
then
cool
your
Water
as
you
do
for
Wort
:
when
it
is
cooled
you
must
pour
the
Water
upon
three
measures
of
grownd
Apples
;
then
drain
out
the
Water
at
a
Tap
three
or
four
times
a
day
,
for
three
Days
together
;
then
press
out
the
Liquor
and
Tun
it
up
:
when
it
hath
done
working
,
then
stop
it
up
close
.
Syder
its
Spirit
:
This
may
be
gained
without
distilling
,
and
the
better
way
by
setting
a
Hogshead
of
Syder
to
freeze
in
Winter
,
and
so
the
strength
of
it
retiring
to
the
middle
,
(
which
will
be
about
twelve
or
fourteen
gallons
,
when
the
weaker
part
is
over-power'd
by
the
cold●
let
it
out
by
broaching
with
a
hot
Iron
.
It
will
prove
stronger
then
Canary
,
and
much
of
the
Tast
.
This
Way
is
frequently
used
in
New-England
,
and
other
Places
,
where
they
have
great
plenty
of
Syder
.

:
To
make
this
Soluble
,
Take
Cream
of
Tartar
,
as
much
as
is
convenient
,
dissolve
it
in
a
sufficient
quantity
of
hot
Water
;
then
gently
drop
into
it
Liquor
of
Salt
of
Tartar
till
the
Ebullition
cease
,
evaporate
the
superfluous
Moisture
,
and
the
soluble
Cream
of
Tartar
will
remain
;
for
the
quantity
of
the
fixed
Salt
surmounting
the
Acidity
of
the
Cream
of
Tartar
,
breaks
the
union
of
its
parts
,
and
insinuating
its
pores
,
makes
it
dissolvible
in
cold
Water
,
or
cold
Liquors
;
whereas
,
otherways
,
it
could
not
be
dissolved
,
but
in
those
that
are
boiling
hot
.
For
Soluble
Emetick
Cream
of
Tartar
take
this
Rule
,
Take
Crocus
Metallorum
,
mixed
with
Salts
and
Cream
of
Tartar
,
of
each
two
ounces
;
pulverize
them
very
finely
,
and
let
them
macerate
for
fifteen
Hours
in
three
pints
of
cold
Spring-water
:
then
digest
them
as
long
in
a
moderate
Sand-bath
,
and
at
length
encrease
the
Fire
,
and
let
them
boil
gently
;
filter
the
Liquor
,
and
evaporate
it
till
a
thin
Film
cover
it
,
then
set
it
in
a
cool
place
to
crystalize
.
The
Parts
of
the
Tartar-Cream
being
disunited
by
the
fixed
Salt
remaining
in
the
Saffron
of
Metals
,
is
easily
dissolved
in
cold
Water
,
and
fitted
to
purge
upward
and
downward
,

it
from
two
to
three
,
four
,
five

,
or
some
other
convenient
Liquor
.

being
trussed
,
put
this
into
the
Belly
,
tying
the
Neck
and
Vent
very
close
,
then
put
the
Fowl
into
the
Water
when
it
begins
to

Lemon-peel
and
Parsly
,
about

Tears
to
Prevent
:
If
Tears
or
watry
Humours
are
usually
standing
in
the
Eyes
,
hindring
the
Sight
,
and
being
much
troubled
,
Take

Teasle
,
its
Decoction

This
is
usually
called
Fullers-Thistle
;
the
Roots
of
it
boiled
in
Wine
help
to
cure
Ulcers
,
and
Warts
.
There
is
a
Water
that
is
received
in
the
hollowness
of
the
Leaves
of
this
Plant
as
it
grows
,
after
a
shower
of
Rain
,
which
,
by
long
standing
there
,
becomes
good
for
the
Inflammations
of
the
Eyes
,
also
to
take
away
Spots
from
the
Face
,
and
beautifie
it
.
The
Herb

in
Wine
purges
by
Urin.

with
it
at
convenient
times
.
Teeth
to
keep
Sound
:
Let
the
Party
,
if
it
can
be
agreeable
,
frequently
rub
his
Teeth
with
the
Ashes
that
remain
in
a
Pipe
after
it
is
smoaked
,
washing
it
afterward
with
fair
Water
.
Or
,
Take
the
Juice
of
Housleek
,
and
Scabious
,
and
wash
your
Mouth
with
it
once
or
twice
a
Week
in
the
Morning
.
Teeth

make
Firm
:
Take
the
Ashes
of
Vine-sprigs
,
and
those
of
the
Root
of
Burdock
,
put
them
into
Vinegar
,
let
them
steep
about
six
Hours
;
and
then
first
wash
your
Mouth
with
fair
Water
,
and
afterward
with
Vinegar
strained
clear
from
the
Ashes
,
and
it
will
fix
and
preserve
the
Teeth
to
a
very
great
Age.
Teeth
Offensive
:
If
your
Teeth
,
by
reason
of
their
Rottennest
,
or
Humours
settling
under
them
,
cast
an
ill
savour
,
to
remedy
it
,
Take
four
ounces
of
Cummin-seed
,
seeth
if
in
a
quart
of
Whitewine
with
some
Tops
of
Baum
and
Mint
,
till
a
quarter
of
a
pint
be
consumed
:
and
with
this
wash
your
Mouth
Morning
and
Evening
.
Tench-Pye
:
To
order
this
,
and
season
it
well
,
Take
about
six
Tenches
;
and
having
made
the
Coffin
,
lay
a
laying
of
Butter
,
and
some
Nutmeg
,
Cinnamon
,
and
Mace
lightly
scatter'd
over
it
;
then
lay
in
the
Tench
,
put
over
them
some
more
Butter
and
Spice
,
with
a
few
blue
Currans
clean
washed
,
and
pour

about
a
quarter
of
a

,
then
bake
it
well
:
when
enough
,
take
it

,
and
put
in
more
Butter
at
the
spout
,
and
serve
it
up
with
some
fine
Sugar
dusted
over
it
.
In
this
manner
you
may
season
a
Carp-pye
,
but
three
of
them
,
if
any
thing
large
,
are
sufficient
in
one
Pye
.
Tender
Eyes
:
Take
the
Water
of
Plantane
,
Eye
bright
,
Pimpernel
,
and
the
Oil
of
Roses
;
beat
them
up
together
,
and
wash
or
anoint
the
Eyes
with
them
,
and
the
Sight
will
be
much
strengthened
.
Tenesmus
:
Mix
Balsam
of
Sulphur
,
made
with
Oil
of
Turpentine
,
with
Linfeed
,
or
some
other
such-like
convenient
drying
Oil
,
till
the
Balsom
be
thereby
so
well
allayed
,
that
it
may
be
well
endured
;
then
let
the
Party
dip
a
Finger
in
it
,
and
use
it
as
a
suppository
once
or
twice
a
Day
.
Terms
to
Provoke
:
Take
for
three
Mornings
together
,
about
the
expected
time
of
the
Menses
,
a
dram
,
or
a
dram
and
a
half
of
the
Galls
and
Livers
of
Eels
dried
and
reduced
to
Powder
,
in
a
Glass
of
Whitewine
or
Canary
.
Tetter
:
To
cure
this
,
Take
black
Soap
a
quarter
of
an
ounce
,
Bole-armoniack
two
drams
,
Oil
of
Turpentine
three
drams
,
Bees-wax
half
an
ounce
,
and
Bears-grease
one
ounce
;
make
these
up
into
an
Ointment
,
or
thin
Plaister
,
and
apply
it
to
the
Place
,
renewing
it
every
Day
,
and
a
speedy
Cure
will
ensue
.
This
also
breaks
the
Whitloe
,
and
is
excellent
against
Scalds
or
Burns
.
Tetters
to
Kill
:
Take
of
burnt
Alom
.
Ginger
,
and
Flower
of
Brimstone
,
of
each
a
like
quantity
:
mix
them
well
,
and
incorporate
them
with
fresh
Butter
,
so
much
as
when
melted
will
bring
them
into
the
consistence
of
an
Unguent
;
and
with
it
anoint
the
Part
afflicted
,
as
hot
as
can
be
well
endured
,
when
you
are
going
to
Bed
,
and
let
it
continue
on
all
Night
;
and
when
you
rise
wash
it
off
with
Celandine-water
:
but
upon
going
to
Bed
take
a
little
Gascoin-powder
in
a
spoonful
or
two
of
Treacle-water
to
prevent
the
Humours
being
driven
into
the
Mass
of
Blood
,
which
oftentimes
happens
when
this
is
not
on
,
bathing
the
Place
with
Celandine-water
.
Thorow-war
:
The
Decoction
of
this
Herb
in
Wine
,
of
the
Leaves
powdered
,
are
applied
successfully
in
Ruptures
and
Contusions
.
Some
hold
it
is
a
proper
Remedy
for
the
King's-Evil
,
also
Fractures
,
and
an
Erisipela's
.
Thoru-Apple
:
An
Ointment
made
of
the
Juice
of
the
Leaves
,
and
Hogs
lard
,
is
excellent
for
Burns
and
Scalds
.
The
Seed
is
to
be
avoided
,
because
taken
for
a
time
it
occasions
Madness
.
Throat
Sore
:
Take
Verjuice
of
Grapes
an
ounce
,
best
Honey
half
an
ounce
,
crude
Alom
about
a
dram
and
a
half
,
Rock
,
or
Spanish
Salt
half
a
dram
:
make
these
into
a
thinness
,
and
with
a
fine
Rag
at
the
end
of
a
small
Stick
,
or
Wyre
,
thrust
it
as
far
as
is
convenient
into
your
Throat
where
the
Sore
is
,
and
bathe
the
Place
grieved
with
it
.
Do
this
often
,
and
between
every
two
times
make
a
gargling
with
some
Plantane
and
Rose-water
.
Throat-wort
:
This
Plant
,
especially
the
Root
,
is
astringent
and
drying
,
and
therefore
the
Decoction
is
excellent
at
the
beginning
of
Ulcers
and
Inflammations
of
the
Mouth
and
Tonsils
,
and
for
other
Diseases
that
require
astringent
Remedies
.
Thrush
:
This
is
usually
incident
among
Children
,
and
frequently
proves
very
dangerous
:
wherefore
to
Remedy
it
,
Take
an
Egg
,
open
the
top
of
it
,
and
take
out
the
White
and
Yolk
,
and
fill
the
Shell
with
the
Juice
of
red
Sage
,
and
set
it
on
hot
Embers
till
it
simpers
;
then
skim
it
with
a
Knife's
point
whilst
any
Scum
will
rise
,
and
take
as
much
Alom
beaten
as
the
bigness
of
a
small
Hazle-nut
,
and
half
a
spoonful
of
Honey
,
which
when
the
Juice
begins
to
wast
,
put
in
to
fill
it
;
so
let
it
boil
a
little
:
and
having
cooled
it
,
rub
the
Party's
Mouth
with
a
little
of
it
,
washing
it
afterward
with
the
Juice
of
Sage
.
Thyme
:
(
here
I
mean
the
wild
sort
)
It
is
hot
and
dry
,
and
consequently
forces
the
Courses
and
Urin.
It
is
Cephalick
,
Uterine
,
and
Stomachick
,
and
therefore
good
a-against
Spitting
of
Blood
,
Gripes
,
and
Convulsions
,
&c.
Outwardly
applied
,
it
eases
the
Pains
of
the
Head
,
and
Giddiness
,
and
disposes
to
Sleep
.
Thyme
,
its
Virtues
:
These
are
very
great
,
as
will
appear
to
any
one
that
does
but
observe
,
That
it
provoketh
Urine
:
it
doth
heat
,
and
being
taken
in
Drink
,
doth
purge
the
Internals
,
and
expectorates
all
nauseous
and
ill
Humours
of
the
Lungs
by
Spitting
:
four
drams
of
Thyme
dried
and
reduced
to
Powder
,
being
taken
fasting
in
a
glass
of
Canary
,
by
often
repeating
,
eases
the
Pains
of
the
Gout
;
for
it
gently
purges
Choler
and
other
sharp
Humours
:
It
is
good
also
for
Diseases
in
the
Bladder
;
and
a
dram
being
taken
in
an
ounce
of
Water
and
Honey
,
is
good
for
such
as
have
their
Bellies
begin
to
swell
,
for
the
Sciatica
,
and
Pains
in
the
Reins
,
Sides
,
and
Breast
;
for
Inflammations
and
Stitches
about
the
fore-part
of
the
Belly
;
for
Melancholy
Persons
,
and
for
those
that
are
troubled
in
Mind
and
much
given
to
Frights
and
Fears
upon
slight
occasions
,
if
three
drams
be
taken
in
an
ounce
of
Honey
and
Vinegar
well
tempered
together
:
it
is
also
profitable
against
the
Inflammations
of
the
Eyes
,
and
the
vehement
Pains
thereof
,
and
much
revives
the
Sight
.
There
is
an
Oil
extracted
from
it
of
the
colour
of
Gold
,
which
cometh
forth
with
a
Water
,
when
the
Herb
being
fresh
and
green
is
distilled
in
a
Bath
of
hot
Water
.
This
Oil
smells
like
a
Citron
,
and
is
very
tart
in
tast
:
its
Virtues
are
to
heat
all
cold
Parts
;
but
by
the
way
note
,
That
for
what
has
been
mentioned
,
Black
Thyme
must
not
be
chosen
;
for
it
corrupteth
the
Temperature
,
and
engendreth
Choler
;
and
therefore
it
must
be
that
which
bears
a
carnation
Flower
,
or
that
which
beareth
a
white
one
.
Tickling
:
This
is
caused
by
defluxions
of
Rheum
,
and
is
often
very
troublesome
.
To
remove
it
,
Take
Olibanum
and
Venice-Treacle
,
of
each
a
like
quantity
;
incorporate
them
well
,
and
make
them
up
into
little
Pills
,
and
let
the
Party
take
a
dram
of
them
;
and
if
need
require
it
,
a
scruple
or
two
once
or
twice
a
Day
.
Tiffanies
Faded
:
To
recover
these
,
Take
the
Water
of
Vervain
a
quart
,
half
a
pint
of
the
Water
that
distils
from
the
Vine
when
it
is
cut
in
the
Spring
,
&c.
a
handful
of
the
Roots
of
Primroses
,
and
as
many
Rosemary-flowers
;
to
these
put
a
quart
of
new
Milk
,
and
boil
them
together
with
two
ounces
of
Alom
in
Powder
:
strain
out
the
Decoction
,
and
steep
your
Tiffanies
in
it
twenty
four
Hours
;
and
then
washing
them
out
,
they
will
not
only
look
much
whiter
,
and
be
the
more
capable
of
a
gloss
.
In
this
manner
you
may
do
by
Lace
,
Muslins
,
or
Lawns
,
if
the
substance
of
them
be
not
too
much
decayed
.
Tiffanies
to
Wash
:
Take
the
best
crown
Soap
,
and
soap
them
on
their
Hems
,
or
Laces
;
and
with
a
gentle
Hand
pass
them
over
three
Lathers
,
and
afterwards
rince
them
,
keeping
them
as
much
as
may
be
likewise
from
the
Air
,
and
dry
them
over
the
Flame
of
Brimstone
:
then
add
a
quarter
of
an
ounce
of
Smalt
to
a
pound
of
Starch
;
and
if
it
be
convenient
,
add
the
bigness
of
a
Hazle-nut
in
Alom
,
which
you
may
dissolve
,
boil
it
to
a
fineness
,
and
charge
it
lightly
upon
your
Tiffanies
and
dry
them
being
wet
by
a
Fire
,
still
clapping
them
in
your
Hands
;
and
when
they
are
clear
,
shape
them
by
a
Pattern
you
design
them
for
,
iron
them
with
a
smooth
though
quick
Iron
,
till
they
shine
,
and
you
will
find
little
difference
as
to
the
gloss
between
them
and
new
.
Some
,
instead
of
Starch
,
use
Gum-water
:
but
this
I
leave
to
your
Discretion
.
Tincture
of
Amber
:
Reduce
five
or
six
ounces
of
yellow
Amber
into
an
impalpable
Powder
,
put
it
into
a
Bolt
Head
,
and
on
it
pour
Spirit
of
Wine
the
heighth
of
four
Fingers
,
and
stop
the
Head
with
another
to
make
a
double
Vessel
;
and
when
you
have
exactly
luted
the
Junctures
with
a
Skin
or
wetted
Bladder
,
place
it
in
Digestion
in
hot
Sand
,
and
leave
it
five
or
six
Days
till
the
Spirit
of
Wine
is
sufficiently
tinged
with
the
Amber
colour
,
then
decant
the
Tincture
,
and
put
more
Spirit
of
Wine
to
the
Matter
,
and
so
digest
it
as
before
;
then
having
separated
the
Impregnation
,
mix
it
with
the
other
,
and
filter
them
,
and
so
put
them
into
an
Alembick
,
and
distil
them
with
a
soft
Fire
.
About
half
the
Spirit
of
Wine
,
which
might
before
serve
,
may
do
in
this
last
.
Keep
the
Tincture
which
you
find
remaining
at
the
bottom
of
the
Alembick
close
stopt
up
.
You
may
take
ten
drops
of
this
in
some
convenient
Liquor
for
the
Apoplexy
,
Palsie
,
or
Epilepsie
;
and
it
is
much
commended
for
the
helping
Women
in
most
Distempers
of
the
Head
,
or
Affliction
of
the
Brain
.
Tinctura
Sacra
:
Take
of
the
Species
of
Hiera
Picra
one
ounce
,
Canary
a
pint
:
infuse
the
former
in
the
latter
in
some
cool
place
the
space
of
seven
Days
,
shaking
it
two
or
three
times
a
Day
,
and
then
let
it
stand
till
the
Wine
looks
clear
.
This
wonderfully
cleanses
and
strengthens
the
Stomach
,
is
good
for
the
Jaundice-Dropsie
,
ill
Habit
of
Body
,
and
for
opening
Obstructions
in
the
Liver
and
Spleen
.
Three
spoonfuls
may
be
taken
at
a
time
,
or
more
or
less
,
according
to
the
Age
and
Strength
of
the
Party
afflicted
.
Tincture
of
Saffron
:
Digest
in
eight
ounces
of
Treacle-water
two
ounces
of
Saffron
for
the
space
of
six
Days
;
then
the
Tincture
being
strained
out
,
keep
it
close
stopped
for
use
.
You
may
take
of
this
half
an
ounce
at
a
time
in
a
glass
of
Wine
,
or
any
other
convenient
Liquor
.
This
is
wonderfully
efficacious
in
chearing
and
comforting
the
Heart
,
concocting
the
crude
Humours
of
the
Breast
,
helps
the
Jaundice
,
and
is
good
against
the
Infection
of
the
Plague
,
and
is
of
singular
validity
in
driving
out
the
Small-pox
,
but
in
that
case
you
must
be
wary
in
taking
too
much
of
it
,
for
fear
of
inflaming
the
Blood
.
Toasts
,
or
Balls
,
&c.
Fried
:
Take
a
boiled
or
raw
Pike
,
mince
it
and
stamp
it
into
some
old
fat
Cheese
grated
into
it
,
season
it
with
Cinnamon
,
Sugar
,
and
boiled
Currans
,
add
the
Yolks
of
hard
Eggs
grated
;
and
these
being
all
well
mingled
together
,
you
may
make
them
up
into
Toasts
,
Balls
,
Pastils
,
or
any
such
little
things
,
as
you
please
;
and
frying
them
with
sweet
Butter
,
and
grated
Nutmeg
,
they
will
tast
wonderful
pleasant
:
but
the
chief
use
they
were
devised
and
intended
for
,
was
to
lay
about
the
Dish
,
or
under
sundry
sorts
of
fried
Meats
,
the
better
to
set
them
off
,
though
they
eat
very
curiously
.
Tobacc●o
:
Though
many
are
ignorant
of
any
use
of
this
Plant
than
in
smoaking
,
it
has
nevertheless
many
other
ways
of
singular
Virtue
,
viz.
It
resists
Putrefaction
,
provokes
sneezing
;
the
smoaking
of
it
stops
Catarrhs
,
and
disposes
to
rest
,
takes
off
Weariness
,
and
suppresses
the
Fits
of
the
Mother
:
It
is
a
good
Preservative
in
Plague
times
.
A
Gargatism
of
it
cures
the
Tooth-ach
,
and
dissolves
the
Tumour
of
the
Uvula
.
A
Bath
of
it
,
or
the
green
Leaves
applied
,
cure
Leprosie
,
the
Itch
,
kills
Lice
,
and
heals
Wounds
,
cleanses
Ulcers
,
and
takes
out
the
Fire
of
Scalds
,
or
Burns
.
The
Smoaking
of
it
strengthens
the
Stomach
,
helps
Concoction
,
and
gently
moves
the
Belly
;
but
is
not
good
to
be
taken
,
especially
to
any
excess
,
by
those
of
a
hot
Constitution
,
because
it
dries
up
or
evacuates
too
much
moisture
:
It
eases
Pains
in
the
Teeth
,
a
hollow
Tooth
especially
,
being
stopt
with
it
,
either
as
it
is
,
or
the
Cinder
of
it
not
burnt
to
Ashes
.
And
in
case
of
the
Palsie
,
take
the
green
Leaves
of
Tobacco
,
and
infuse
them
in
old
Mallaga
,
and
rub
the
Parts
afflicted
with
the
liquid
part
after
Sweating
:
this
has
been
often
tried
with
success
.
A
Pipe
lightēd
,
and
the
Smoak
forced
up
the
Fundament
,
eases
the
Colick
,
or
Pains
of
the
Belly
;
it
also
cures
the
Fits
of
the
Mother
,
and
Faintings
.
Tobacco
Salve
:
To
make
an
excellent
Salve
of
Tobacco
,
Take
the
Juice
of
green
English
Tobacco
one
quart
,
Olive-oil
a
pint
,
with
as
much
Turpentine
,
Wax
,
and
Verdigrease
,
as
will
thicken
them
over
a
gentle
Fire
to
the
consistence
of
a
Plaister
.
This
is
excellent
for
Cuts
,
Bruises
,
Burns
,
Scalds
,
Gun-shot
,
and
to
be
applied
to
the
Place
which
any
venomous
Creature
has
bit
or
stung
.
Tongue-Pye
:
In
the
first
place
,
Take
a
Neat's-tongue
well
boiled
,
blanch
it
and
cut
it
in
thin
slices
,
as
also
some
interlarded
Bacon
,
and
lay
a
Laying
of
the
Bacon
between
every
Layings
of
the
Tongue
;
but
let
the
Bacon
be
cut
much
thinner
and
lesser
in
quantity
:
then
take
half
an
ounce
of
Pepper
,
two
large
Nutmegs
,
and
three
Anchoveys
,
forbearing
to
sprinkle
any
Salt
:
after
this
make
a
Leer
with
half
a
pint
of
Claret-wine
,
and
some
Gravy
,
the
Yolks
of
three
Eggs
,
a
piece
of
Butter
,
and
grated
Nutmeg
,
boil
them
up
to
a
considerable
thickness
:
then
when
the
Pye
is
to
be
served
up
,
put
it
in
with
a
Funnel
at
the
Pipe
,
or
open
Place
left
for
that
purpose
.
And
by
this
method
you
may
order
and
season
a
Hare-pye
to
the
best
Advantage
to
please
the
Palate
.
Tooth-ach
:
To
ease
the
violent
Pain
of
the
Teeth
,
with
which
old
and
young
are
too
frequently
afflicted
,
Take
two
parts
of
Lisbon-Sugar
,
and
one
part
of
black
round
Pepper
,
fine
them
into
Powder
,
and
put
them
into
a
Spoon
over
two
or
three
well
kindl'd
Coals
;
and
when
the
Sugar
begins
to
relent
,
take
off
the
Spoon
,
and
whilst
the
Mixture
is
soft
,
form
it
into
little
grains
,
the
size
to
shape
the
hollowness
of
your
Tooth
,
and
stop
it
in
as
close
as
may
be
;
and
so
renew
it
as
you
find
the
first
wast
.
Tooth-ach
,
another
:
Take
Henbane-seed
,
and
Hyssop-seed
,
bruise
them
very
small
;
then
put
as
much
Sweeds-Tar
as
will
fix
them
together
,
to
make
then
up
into
little
Pellets
,
and
stop
these
into
the
hollowness
of
the
Tooth
,
tyed
up
in
a
little
fine
Rag.
Tooth-ach
,
another
:
Take
Ginger
,
beat
it
fine
,
and
sow
it
up
in
a
fine
Rag
,
more
long
than
broad
;
then
so●…
it
in
the
Spirit
of
Wine
,
la●
it
to
the
Root
of
your
Tooth●
and
though
by
its
Heat
it
may
at
first
cause
the
Nerve
of
the
Tooth
to
rave
a
little
;
yet
in
a
short
time
,
being
often
dipt
and
applied
,
it
will
altogether
take
away
the
Pain
.
Or
,
for
want
of
this
,
take
what
follows
,
viz.
Seeth
clarified
Honey
one
ounce
in
two
ounces
of
Rosemary-water
,
or
Hyssop-water
;
and
taking
off
the
Scum
that
will
arise
,
put
in
the
sine
Dust
of
Pepper
,
let
it
consume
till
a
blackness
ensue
,
and
it
thickens
;
then
dip
into
it
a
Sage
Leaf
,
whilst
it
is
hot
,
and
lay
to
the
Tooth
,
and
the
Pain
will
presently
abate
.
Tooth
to
make
Fall
out
:
If
you
have
a
loose
and
troublesome
Tooth
,
or
one
that
is
hollow
and
offensive
,
that
you
would
remove
,
Take
the
Shavings
of
Harts
horn
,
burn
it
to
Powder
,
mix
with
it
a
little
slacked
Lime
,
the
Tallow
of
a
Ram
,
and
the
Juice
of
a
white
Lily
and
Plantane-root
,
stop
it
into
the
Tooth
,
in
a
Rag
,
if
hollow
;
or
otherways
,
lay
it
to
it
between
the
Cheek
and
the
Gum
,
and
it
will
in
a
little
time
,
fall
out
without
any
pain
at
all
.
Tooth
not
Hollow
:
If
there
be
no
hollowness
in
the
Tooth
,
or
visible
defect
,
and
yet
it
achs
,
Take
the
Root
of
●…ack
Hellebore
,
commonly
●…lled
Bear's-foot
,
scrape
off
the
Rind
,
and
cut
a
pretty
slice
,
and
lay
it
to
the
Tooth
between
your
Gums
,
and
the
inside
of
your
Cheek
,
avoiding
the
Rheum
that
it
will
occasion
;
and
so
renew
it
with
a
fresh
piece
.
If
you
fancy
,
by
a
strange
sort
of
a
stirring
,
at
certain
times
,
that
there
are
Worms
in
your
Teeth
,
sprinkle
some
Henbane-seed
and
Frankincense
,
on
a
Pan
of
Coals
,
hold
a
Funnel
,
the
broad
end
over
,
and
let
the
narrow
Spout
be
placed
to
the
bottom
of
the
Tooth
that
the
Fume
may
come
to
it
;
and
if
there
be
any
place
for
them
to
do
it
,
the
Worms
will
creep
out
;
If
they
do
not
,
it
will
however
kill
them
.
Tooth-Wort
:
The
greater
sort
of
this
is
excellent
for
Ruptured
and
inward
Wounds
,
and
for
Diseases
rising
from
Defluxions
,
by
taking
two
drams
of
the
Powder
in
Broth
successively
for
several
Days
.
It
likewise
eases
Pains
and
Aches
in
several
Parts
of
the
Body
.
Tormentil
:
This
is
drying
,
and
very
astringent
,
and
therefore
is
very
powerful
in
the
Fluxes
of
the
Belly
and
Womb
;
and
being
mixed
with
vulnerary
precious
Ointments
and
Plaisters
,
it
festinates
the
Cure
of
Wounds
,
old
Sores
,
and
Ulcers
.
From
half
to
a
whole
dram
of
this
,
taken
in
Wine
,
is
greatly
commended
for
curing
an
Epidemick
Dysentery
;
Rhubarb
being
used
before
,
if
occasion
require
it
.
Treacle
,
Remedy
for
Agues
:
Take
of
Venice
,
or
London-Treacle
,
put
it
into
about
four
ounces
,
of
White-wine
:
then
put
it
into
a
Vessel
close
covered
,
and
let
it
simper
for
half
an
hour
over
the
Fire
,
but
not
boil
,
stirring
or
rather
shaking
it
sometimes
about
,
and
take
it
pretty
hot
about
two
Hours
before
the
Fit
comes
on
,
and
let
the
Party
keep
close
in
a
warm
Bed
,
in
order
,
to
sweat
;
and
repeat
this
two
or
three
times
.
This
was
experienc'd
by
the
famous
Sir
Kenelm
Digby
,
and
by
him
ordered
to
be
given
to
divers
Persons
;
which
was
rarely
given
without
Success
.
Treacle-Spirit
:
To
make
this
,
Take
the
Roots
of
Master-wort
,
Angelica
,
Athamantick
,
Spignel
,
and
the
bigger
Valerian
,
of
each
three
ounces
;
Juniper-berries
,
and
the
Seeds
of
Bishop's-weed
,
and
Seseli
of
Marseiles
,
of
each
an
ounce
;
approved
Treacle
four
ounces
:
The
Roots
and
Seeds
being
bruised
together
,
macerate
them
eight
Days
in
two
pints
of
rectified
Spirit
of
Wine
:
then
make
your
Distillation
,
and
preserve
the
Spirit
.
This
Spirit
resists
very
powerfully
all
sorts
of
Poisons
:
It
may
be
taken
in
Spanish-Wine
,
or
any
Cordial
Liquor
,
from
one
to
four
drams
:
It
may
be
also
apply'd
to
the
Nostrils
,
Forehead
,
Temples
,
and
Sutures
of
the
Skull
,
for
Head-achs
,
Fainting
Fits
,
or
Drousiness
of
the
Brain
.
Treacle-Water
:
This
is
the
most
Excellent
sort
of
all
.
To
make
it
,
Take
the
Roots
of
Gentian
,
Angelica
,
Master-wort
,
Valerian
,
and
Contrayerva
,
of
each
two
ounces
;
Citron-rinds
,
and
Orange-peels
,
Cinnamon
,
Cloves
,
and
Juniper-berries
,
of
each
an
ounce
;
Tops
of
Water-Germander
,
Rue
,
and
St.
John's-wort
,
of
each
one
handful
:
infuse
them
to
three
Days
in
Spirit
of
Wine
,
and
Waters
of
Nuts
,
and
Blessed
Thistle
,
of
each
a
quart
:
then
add
four
ounces
of
approved
Treacle
:
distil
the
whole
in
a
Sand-Bath
,
and
keep
the
Water
close
stopped
for
use
.
This
is
an
excellent
Water
to
resist
Poison
,
and
to
fortifie
all
the
noble
Parts
,
being
taken
from
one
dram
to
half
an
ounce
.
Some
make
a
Treacle-water
,
by
dissolving
the
Treacle
in
equal
parts
of
Spirit
of
Wine
and
Vinegar
,
using
it
without
any
Distillation
;
but
Reason
and
Experience
tells
us
this
is
far
more
Excellent
.
Tre-foil
,
or
Bucksbane
:
The
Decoction
of
it
in
White-wine
is
good
against
the
Scurvy
,
as
also
,
for
Pains
in
the
Limbs
.
The
Leaves
boiled
in
Beer
,
and
taken
hot
,
ease
Pains
in
the
Bowels
;
but
being
bitter
,
it
is
best
taken
in
any
lenitive
Syrup
.
Trembling
,
a
Remedy
:
If
the
Members
tremble
and
shake
,
that
you
cannot
at
certain
times
hold
them
still
,
though
no
cause
of
Fear
,
Danger
,
or
Defect
,
is
evident
to
cause
it
,
anoint
the
crown
of
the
Head
,
the
Hair
being
shaven
off
,
and
the
other
Parts
especially
where
you
find
the
Trepidation
,
with
Oil
of
Cinnamon
,
and
drink
two
drams
of
the
Water
that
is
made
of
Man
,
or
Swine's
Blood
,
brought
to
putrefaction
,
with
Aqua-vitae
,
or
Spirit
of
Wine
,
and
afterward
distilled
:
and
this
must
be
frequently
repeated
for
a
Month's
space
.
Troches
Pectoral
:
Take
of
white
Sugar
a
pound
,
white
Sugar-candy

the
Roots
of
Florentine-orris
half
an
ounce
,
white
Starch
an
ounce
and
half
,
Licorice
six
drams

with
a
convenient
quantity
of
the
Mucilage
of

extracted
in
Rose-water
:
make
the
Materials
into
Troches
,
that
they
may
be
perfumed
,
as
occasion
requires
it
,
with
four
grains
of
Ambergrease
,
and
three
of
Musk.
These
are
Excellent
for
Coughs
and
Catarrhs
in
Winter
,
and
for
the
preventing
taking
Cold
in
such
whose
Occasions
constrain
them
to
Travel
in
damp
and
foggy
Airs
.
Troches
of
Winter-Cherries
:
Take
of
Winter-Cherries
three
drams

,
white
Starch
,
Juice
of
Lemons
,
Bole-armoniack
,
and
the
Seeds
of
white
Poppies
,
of
each
six
drams
;

and
Opium
,
of
each
two
drams
;
and
with
the
Juice
of
fresh
Winter-Cherries
make
Troches
.
The
Dose
is
two
scruples
to
be
taken
at
a
time
.
This
is
excellent
for
expelling
Gravel
from
the
Bladder
,
or
Kidneys
,
and
to
provoke
Urin.
Trochiscs
of
Benjamine
:
Take
Benjamine
,

Ashes
of
a
Sallow-Tree
,
of
each
an
ounce
;

a
like
quantity
;

,
sweet

.
Veal-Pye
to
Season
:
Take
an

of
Cloves
and

a
Pye
;
there
must
be
added
like
wise
two
pound
of
Butter
.
And
this
seasoning
is
very
suitable
for
a
quarter
of
Lamb
,
if

Vein
to
Stop
:
In

dipping
a
Liniment
into
it
of
Flax
,
apply
it
cold
to
the
Place
,
suffering
it
to
stick
on
a
Day
or

;
then
if
you
see
occasion
,
take
it
off
with
Oil
of
Roses
.
Veins
Windy
:
To
expel
offensive
Windiness
that
afflicts
the
Veins
,
Take
the
Powder
of
Licorice
,
Carraway-seeds
,
Sugar-candy
beaten
small
,
of
each
an
equal
quantity
;
to
which
put
Rhubarb
in
powder
a
third
part
,
with

Day
as
it
is
,
or
in
a
glass
of
Wine
,
and
so
continue
to
do
for
about
seven
Days
.
This
gently
purges
,
very
much
cools
the
Blood
,
and
by
expelling
the
Wind
,
eases
Pains
,
and
many
Disorders
that
are
occasion'd
by
it

close
;
and
when
you
use
it
,
put
a
little
Flower
of
Almonds
in
it
,
and
shake
it
about
.
This

half
a
Hanch
of
fat
Venison
,
cut
it
into
slices
half
an
inch
thick
,
salt
and
broil
them
on
pretty
quick
Embers
;
and
when
they
are
well
soaked
,
bread
them
and
serve
them
with
Gravy
only
.
And
in
this
manner
you
may
broil
a
Side
of
Venison
;
or
boil
it
first
in
fresh
Water
and
Salt
,
and
then
broil
it
,
and
dridge
it
,
and
serve
it
up
with
Gravy
,
Vinegar
,
and
Pepper
.
As

the
Chine
broil
it
raw
,
bread
it

up
with
Gravy
.

ways
with
the
grain
,
beat
it
well
with
a
Rolling-pin
,
and
broil
it
on
the

it
;
then
put
to
it
some
Whitewine-Vinegar
,
Pepper
,
Salt
,
Cloves
,
Mace
,
and
Bay-leaves
:
so
let
it
lye
three
or
four
Days
,
and
bake
it
in
a
Rye
Past
;
and
when
it
is
cold
,
fill
it
up
with
Butter
,
and
let
it
stand
ten
or
fourteen
Days
before
you
cut
it
up
,
and
it
must
be
a
very
curious
Pallate
that
can
distingush
it
from
Venison
of
red
Deer
.
Venison
to
Counterfeit
,
another
:
Take
Ram
,
or
Wether
,
steep
it
in
warm
Blood
,
either
of
a
Goat
,
Pig
or
Sheep
,
and
season
it
as
you
do
Venison
;
the
Bones
being
taken
out
,
and
a
little
Claret-Wine
added
,
bake
it
in
a
Pot
,
or
Pye
.
Venison-Pasty
:
Take
four
pound
of
Butter
to
a
Peck

Flower
,
and
make
it
up
into

cold
Water
;
beat
the
Past
with
a
Rolling-pin
,
and
likewise
so
order
two
pound
of
Beef-suet
beaten
small
:
then
put
the
Suet
into
the
Pasty
both
at
top
and
bottom
;
(
take
notice
likewise
that
you
put
the
Whites
of
twelve
Eggs
into
the
Crust
:
)
then
your
Meat
being
boned
,
or
the
Bones
broken
to
pieces
,
rub
it
over
with
an
ounce
of
Pepper
,
and
as
much
Salt
mixed
with
it
:
or
if
you
take
out
the
Bones
,
you
may
put
them
well
broken
into
a
Pot
,
with
a
little
Claret
,
fair
Water
,
Pepper
,
Salt
,
and
a
slice
or
two
of
Nutmeg
,
and
bake
them
,
that
so
the
Liquor
may
serve
to
put
it
into
the
Pasty
when
it
comes
out
of
the
Oven
,
in
order
to
be
served
up
at
the
Table
.
And
this
way
,
without
alteration
,
Mutton
,
or
Beef-Pasties
may
be
ordered
;
and
the
latter
among
the
more
ignorant
,
so
ordered
,
will
pass
for
Venison
.
Venison
to
Pot
:
Take
a
Haunch
of
a
fat
Buck
,
not
lately
hunted
,
bone
it
and
beat
three
ounces
of
Pepper
,
twelve
Nutmegs
grated
,
and
a
sufficient
quantity
of
Salt
to
season
it
:
mix
the
Spices
and
Salt
with
White-wine-Vinegar
,
wash
the
Venison
over
with
it
;
then
make
holes
in
the
lean
sides
with
a
Knife
,
and
stuff
it
as
you
do
Beef
,
with
Parsly
small
shred
;
and
then
put
it
into
a
convenient
earthen
Pot
,
with
the
fat
side
downward
:
then
clarifie
three
pound
of
sweet
Butter
,
and
put
it
to
the
Venison
,
cover
your
Pot
with
a
Past
,
and
let
it
stand
in
the
Oven
five
or
six
Hours
:
then
take
it
out
,
and
with
a
vent
press
it
down
to
the
bottom
of
the
Pot
;
and
letting
it
be
cold
,
take
the
Gravy
from
the
top
,
and
boil
it
about
half
away
,
then
put
it
with
the
Butter
to
the
Meat
again
.
Venison
to
Souce
:
Boil
Water

Rosemary-tops
and
Fennel
;
and
when
it
boils
,
put
in
the
Venison
,
let
it
parboil
,
then
press
it
and
season
it
with
Salt
,
Pepper
,
and
Nutmeg
.
This
takes
away
the
Scent
when
tainted
,
and
it
will
keep
in
this
Souce-drink
a
long
time
;
and
so
you
may
bake
it
to
be
eat
cold
or
hot
.
Venison
to
Stew
:
Slice
it
out
,
and
put

your
Stewing-dish

set
it
on
a
heap
of
Coals
with
a
little
Claret-wine
,
a
Sprig
or
two
of
Rosemary
,
and
half
a
dozen
Cloves
,
a
little
grated
Bread
,
Sugar
and
Vinegar
;
so
let
it
stew
together
a
while
,
then
grate
one
Nutmeg
into
it
,
and
serve
it
up
.
Venison
Tainted
:
If
you
would
recover
your
Venison
when
Tainted
,
Take
strong
Ale
,
and
as
much
Vinegar
as
will
make
it
sharp
,
boil
it
with
some
Bay-salt
,
and
make
a
strong
Brine
,
scum
it
,
and
let
it
stand
till
it
cools
;
then
lay
your
Venison
to
steep
in
it
twelve
Hours
,
press
it
and
dry
it
,
then
parboil
it
,
season
it
with
Salt
and
Pepper
,
and
it
will
be
fit
for
use
.
Or
,
Bury
it
in
the
Ground
,
where
there
is
a
kind
soft
sweet
Mould
,
and
the
Earth
will
draw
to
it
the
strong
Scent
,
and
the
Venison
will
become
sweet
.
Verjuice

Make
:
Gather
Crabs
as

sweat
;
then
take
off
the
Stalks
,
and
separate
the
Rotten
,
or
much
bruised
,
if
there
be
any
,
put
them
into
a
Trough
,
and
stamp
them
with
a
Beater
,
or
grind
them
in
a
Mill
:
then
put
them
in
a
hair
Bag
,
of
coarse
Cloath
,
lay
it
in
a
Press
,
when
full
with
the
Mash
of
the
Crabs
,
and
by
pressing
down
the
Board
upon
it
,
squeeze
out
Juice
,
and
put
it
into
a
Barrel
;
stop
it
close
,
and
set
it
in
a
warm
Place
for
ten
or
twelve
Days
,
and
it
will
become
excellent
Verjuice
.

Vinegar
Common
:
The
usual
Vinegar
made
with
us
is
ordered
in
this
manner
,
Take
a
midling
sort
of
Beer
,

well
hopp'd
,
put
into
it

letting
the
Rapes
settle
,
draw
off
the
liquid
part
,
put
it
into
a
Cask
,
and
set
it
in
the
Sun
as
hot
as
may
be
,
the
Bung
only
covered
with
a
Tile
,
or
Slat-stone
,
and
in
about
thirty
or
forty
Days
it
will
be
a
very
curious
Vinegar
,

the
Fields

hath
many
long
Leaves
spread

the
Ground
,
and

divided
into
many
small
Parts
:
its
Flowers
are
white
,

red
,

Ulcers
and
Fistula's
,
especially

it
,

stays
its
falling
off
,
especially
washing
the
Head
before

the
Concoction
of
it
.
Inwardly
taken
,
it
strengthens
the
retentive
Faculties
of
the
Stomach
;
it
helps
the
Running
of
the
Reins

a
pleasant
Colour
,
which

a
little
Gum
Arabick
dissolved
in

you
may
likewise
write
with
