How
to
recover
Health
,
and
to
know
certainly
which
of
the
Four
Humours
hath
Dominion
over
the
Sick
Person
.
TAke
of
Soder
one
pound
,
of
the
finest
Tin
half
a
pound
,
three
ounces
of
Mercury
,
melt
them
;
then
take
the
Amalgama
all
together
,
and
put
it
into
an
Alembick
,
and
you
will
have
about
four
ounces
of
Water
,
which
you
shall
make
use
of
as
followeth
.
Pour
one
or
two
drops
of
this
Water
into
the
Urine
of
a
sick
Person
,
and
,
in
an
instant
,
you
will
see
the
four
Humours
separated
;
and
that
whereof
you
see
to
be
most
substance
,
't
is
that
which
prevails
in
the
Body
,
and
will
often
change
,
according
as
it
offends
or
prejudices
Health
.
The
Amalgama
is
thus
proved
:
Put
it
into
your
hand
,
and
pour
thereon
two
or
three
drops
of
Juice
of
Citron
,
and
it
will
instantly
become
red
.
A
wonderful
Cure
for
a
Fistula
.
Take
a
living
Toad
,
put
it
into
a
Crucible
,
covered
that
it
may
not
get
out
,
and
reduce
it
to
Ashes
with
a
fierce
Fire
,
the
Fire
not
touching
the
Toad
.
Apply
this
Powder
to
the
Fistula
,
washing
it
first
with
White-wine
,
warm
,
or
the
Urine
of
a
male
Child
.
Probatum
.
A
remarkable
Receipt
made
of
a
Man's
Skull
.
Take
of
the
impalpable
Powder
of
a
Scull
,
and
apply
it
to
any
Wound
or
Ulcer
whatever
,
and
it
will
cure
it
.
This
was
experienc'd
by
Monsieur
President
Bolanger
,
in
an
Ulcer
that
none
could
cure
in
ten
years
.
Against
the
Bloody
Flux
;
and
how
to
draw
the
Tincture
of
Coral
.
Take
a
Pumice-stone
,
quench
it
three
or
four
times
in
good
Vinegar
in
an
earthen
Pot
,
till
it
look
red
;
bray
the
Coral
very
fine
,
and
make
a
bed
of
Pumice-stone
in
an
earthen
pot
,
then
a
bed
of
Coral
;
do
this
thrice
,
so
that
the
first
and
last
be
of
Pumice-stone
:
lute
the
Pot
well
,
and
put
it
in
a
Glass
or
Potters
Fornace
for
two
dayes
;
take
it
out
,
and
pour
Vinegar
upon
the
Powders
,
so
often
till
they
have
lost
their
redness
;
then
evaporate
the
Vinegar
in
a
Glass
or
Earthen-vessel
well
glaz'd
,
in
which
will
remain
the
tincture
or
colour
of
Coral
.
So
you
may
draw
all
sorts
of
Colours
of
Minerals
and
Metals
reduc'd
to
powder
.
The
Dose
is
one
dram
in
an
Egg.
The
Syrup
is
made
after
this
manner
.
Take
two
ounces
of
this
Tincture
,
and
three
ounces
of
Sugar-Candy
,
which
put
in
a
large
varnish'd
earthen
Vessel
,
in
Balneo
Mariae
,
continually
stirring
your
Matter
with
a
wooden
Spatula
,
till
it
be
boyl'd
to
the
consistence
of
a
Syrup
:
for
this
hinders
the
precipitating
of
the
tincture
of
Coral
.
Another
way
to
draw
the
Tincture
of
Coral
.
Take
Virgin-wax
and
scrape
it
into
a
new
Pot
,
wherein
you
have
put
little
pieces
of
Coral
,
so
that
the
Coral
be
therewith
covered
,
melt
and
boyl
them
gently
upon
live
coals
,
and
the
Wax
will
draw
all
the
Tincture
of
Coral
:
the
which
you
shall
try
by
taking
out
a
little
piece
of
the
Coral
,
which
you
must
do
commonly
within
a
Quarter
of
an
hour
.
Withdraw
the
Fire
,
and
let
the
Wax
cool
;
which
you
shall
take
and
scrape
into
an
Urinal
,
and
pour
thereon
good
thrice
distill'd
Vinegar
,
or
strong
Spirit
of
Wine
,
and
put
it
on
hot
Embers
,
that
the
Wax
may
give
to
the
Vinegar
the
tincture
which
it
took
from
the
Coral
;
then
take
it
from
the
Fire
,
and
,
being
cold
,
separate
the
Vinegar
from
the
Wax
,
and
evaporate
it
;
being
evaporated
,
you
'll
find
your
Tincture
at
the
bottom
,
red
like
Cinaber
.
Against
the
Stone
.
Take
two
pounds
of
Sallet
Oyl
,
which
you
shall
distill
in
an
Alembick
with
Sand
,
and
take
three
Spoonfuls
every
day
of
the
Water
or
Phlegm
that
flows
,
in
the
morning
,
three
hours
after
Dinner
,
and
at
night
going
to
bed
,
for
nine
dayes
.
This
Water
dissolves
the
Stone
in
the
Kidneys
and
Bladder
.
That
which
remains
in
the
Alembic
is
for
the
Gout
,
and
Contraction
of
the
Nerves
,
from
a
cold
cause
.
An
excellent
Receipt
for
the
Gravel
.
Take
two
pounds
of
the
Roots
of
male
Nettles
,
and
cleanse
them
,
and
boyl
them
in
a
Gallon
of
Water
,
to
the
diminishing
of
the
third
part
;
then
add
three
pints
of
good
White-wine
,
boyl
them
over
a
gentle
Fire
for
an
hour
,
then
let
them
cool
;
being
almost
cold
,
take
out
the
Roots
and
press
them
,
then
put
the
Juyce
with
the
Decoction
into
a
new
earthen
pot
;
when
't
is
clear'd
by
seething
,
and
that
you
would
use
it
,
take
three
Pills
of
fresh
Butter
,
having
swallow'd
them
,
drink
a
glass
of
the
Decoction
fasting
,
as
early
as
you
can
;
and
two
hours
after
,
a
Porringer
of
clear
Broth
,
for
three
dayes
together
,
at
each
decrease
of
the
Moon
:
Laxative
Clysters
are
excellent
;
you
must
take
them
the
night
before
you
take
the
Decoction
.
For
the
same
.
Take
Eglantine
Berries
,
dry
the
Seeds
in

a
dram
of
them
in
a
small
glass
of
White-wine
,
to
steep
seven
or
eight
hours
;
drink
it
half
an
hour
before
you
go
to
bed
,
stirring
it
well
,
that
nothing
remain
in
the
bottom
;
This
produces
great
Effects
;
for
it
drives
out
all
sorts
of
Gravel
,
and
breaks
the
Stone
,
so
that
you
will
void
it
by
small
pieces
.
Probatum
.
But
you
must
take
it
but
for
two
dayes
,
together
,
and
eight
dayes
after
,
and
at
the
decrease
of
the
Moon
.
You
may
make
a
Marmalade
of
the
red
Fruit
,
and
cat
thereof
after
meals
,
and
it
will
hinder
any
thing
from
coagulating
in
the
Body
.
For
the
same
.
Take
Wild-Parsly
seeds
,
infuse
them

The
singular
Vertues
of
the
Herb
called
Fluellin
.
This
Herb
is
very
common
,
and
yet
little
known
by
its
Name
;
it
grows
frequently
among
Corn
,
and
plough'd
Lands
about
Harvest
time
;
the
Country
People
use
it
when
they
cut
themselves
with
Sythes
,
&c.
The
Water
of
its
Leaves
and
Branches
drawn
when
't
is
in
its
full
Virtue
by
an
Alembic
or
Balneo
Mariae
is
of
wonderful
use
to
stay
the
spreading
of
a
Cancer
in
the
Breasts
;
and
the
spreading
Polipus
,
though
one
would
think
they
were
incurable
;
and
if
you
apply
the
same
Herb
to
the
forehead
,
it
will
infallibly
appease
the
pains
of
the
Head
;
injected
,
it
mundifies
and
consolidates
Wounds
;
and
quickly
drys
up
Fistula's
and
Ulcers
,
which
by
other
Remedies
are
made
worse
;
instill'd
into
watry
Eyes
,
it
cures
them
and
stays
all
Defluxions
that
may
happen
to
them
,
and
so
cause
Inflammations
and
Dimness
;
also
applyed
with
a
Linnen
Cloth
upon
Tetters
,
Itch
,
Pustules
,
Scabs
,
Pimples
,
Ring-worms
,
St.
Anthonies
Fire
,
&c.
't
will
extinguish
them
in
a
little
time
,
as
also
all
Inflammations
;
drank
for
one
day
it
stays
all
Rheums
,
Vomittings
,
Flux
of
the
Belly
,
drys
up
Hidropick
Waters
,
appeases
pains
of
the
Cholic
;
cures
Tertian
and
Quartan
Fevers
;
and
I
believe
may
profitably
be
given
in
other
Fevers
.
A
wonderful
Receipt
for
the
Cure
of
the
King
's
Evil
,
and
other
Wounds
.
Take
a
quart
of

,
and
two
drams
of
Rhapontic
well
beaten
,
and
tyed
in
a
Linnen
Cloth
.
When
you
use
it
you
must
foment
it
as
hot
as
it
can
be
suffered
,
and
if
it
be
deep
you
must
seringe
it
,
and
dress
it
thrice
a
day
;
then
take
a
Colewort
Leaf
,
dry
it
a
little
,
and
apply

be
possible
,
the
space
of
eight
and
forty
hours
;
stirring
them
every
day
twice
or
thrice
with
a
Spatula
;
then
put
them
over
the
Fire
in
a
Posnet
,
and
let
it
boil
to
the
diminishing
of
half
or
thereabout
;
then
strain
through
a
Strainer
or
strong
Cloth
,
pressing
them
so
that
there
remain
no
Substance
:
then
put
them
again
in
the
Fire
,
and
make
them
boil
as
before
,
stirring
them
always
with
an
Iron
,
or
wooden
Spatula
,
till
the
Gums
come
to
a
Body
of
the
Consistence
of
Honey
,
which
you
will
know
by
letting
fall
a
drop
or
two
upon
a
Plate
:
This
done
,
take
two
Pounds
and
an
half
of
Sallet
Oyl
,
which
you
shall
put
into
another
Skillet
apart
,
with
a
Pound
and
half
of
Litharge
of
Gold
,
and
an
ounce
of
Verdigrease
,
both
first
powdred
and
sears'd
,
and
let
them
boil
over
a
very
gentle
Fire
,
stirring
it
continually
with
an
Iron
or
wooden
Spatula
(
for
otherwise
the
Litharge
will
get
together
)
till
all
be
well
incorporated
together
;
then
encrease
your
Fire
,
and
boil
it
till
it
become
of
a
red-brown
Colour
,
though
it
will
be
black
before
it
will
become
reddish
.
This
being
done
,
put
in
a
pound
of
new
Wax
cut
in
little
Pieces
,
and
melt
it
therein
,
stirring
it
continually
with
a
Spatula
;
then
put
in
your
Gums
,
boil'd
before
,
and
warm'd
a
little
that
they
may
strain
the
better
:
but
before
this
,
take
heed
that
your
Oyl
be
not
too
hot
;
for
if
so
,
all
will
boil
i'
th'
Fire
.
This
done
,
take
what
follows
well
powdred
and
sers'd
,
four
ounces
of
Diamond
of
Levant
,
two
ounces
of
long
Birthwort
,
Mastick
,
Myrrh
,
and
Bdellium
,
of
each
one
ounce
,
and
two
ounces
of
the
purest
Frankincense
;
which
you
shall
put
into
the
Skillet
,
and
incorporate
them
very
diligently
together
,
the
Skillet
being
taken
from
the
Fire
;
and
take
heed
,
that
when
you
put
in
the
said
Powders
your
Oyl
be
not
too
hot
,
for
all
will
fly
out
;
and
then
you
shall
set
all
over
the
Cinders
,
or
a
very
gentle
Fire
,
that
they
may
incorporate
the
better
.
And
when
it
is
cold
,
make
a
Paste
thereof
with
your
Hands
moistned
with
Vinegar
,
and
make
it
into
Rowls
upon
a
Table
besprinkled
also
with
Vinegar
;
and
when
they
are
dry
,
wrap
them
in
a
Paper
,
and
keep
them
for
your
Use
.
The
said
Plaister
will
keep
good
fifty
years
;
and
't
is
not
good
to
use
it
till
it
hath
been
made
two
or
three
Months
.
You
need
not
use
any
Tents
,
nor
Lint
,
unless
the
Wound
whereon
you
apply
it
close
up
,
or
that
the
Flesh
encrease
too
much
.
To
be
cur'd
quickly
,
you
must
eat
no
Garlick
or
Onions
;
't
is
very
good
for
old
or
new
Wounds
,
it
cleanses
,
and
makes
Flesh
come
without
Corruption
;
it
unites
Nerves
cut
asunder
,
and
strengthens
the
bruised
ones
;
it
cures
any
Windiness
,
even
in
the
Head
;
it
cures
Wounds
made
by
Gun-shot
,
allays
the
Inflammation
,
draws
out
Iron
and
Bullets
out
of
Wounds
,
and
Splints
of
Bones
,
if
they
be
in
the
Body
.
It
cures
the
Bitings
of
venemous
and
mad
Beasts
,
sensibly
drawing
out
the
Venom
;
it
cures
all
sorts
of
Apostumes
and
Kernels
,
Cancers
,
King's
Evil
,
Fistula's
,
and
even
the
Plague
it self
.
It
is
also
very
good
to
make
rebellious
Haemorrhoids
flow
:
it
is
also
very
good
to
cure
the
Farces
in
Horses
.
In
short
,
't
is
daily
approv'd
of
for
curing
a
multitude
of
Diseases
.
For
the
Megrim
.
In

Month
of

Monardus

in

potius

this

be
Bleeding

in

it

necessary
to

be
advised
by
what

,

Dominion

that
Planet
that

For
contraria
contrarus

;
and
to
know
the
hour
of
the
Planet
,
you
must
see
what
hour

Sun
rises
.
At
whatever
hour
the
Sun
rises
in

all
the

,
and
put
it
into
the
Guts
,
which
wrap
round
with
a
Napkin
,
lest
crushing
down
the
Meat
close
they
burst
;
make
the
divisions
at
what
distances
you
think
fit
,
which
knot
with
a
Packthread
,
and
hang
them
a
drying
in
the

fit
,
cut
the
Skin

with
Sallet
Oyl
,
and
put
them
into
an

and
Water
,
dry
them
with
a
Cloth
,
rub
both
sides
very
well
with
fine
white

layer
of
Isop
,
Sage
,
Savory
,
Laurel
,

be
better
to
lay
the
said
Herbs
at
the
bottom
of
the
Pannier
,
and
the
Salt
upon
them
,
that
the
Gammons
may
take

more
,
leave

together
.
Next
,
hang
them
up
in
a
dry
place
,
and
they
will
keep
three
or
four
years
:
to
make
them
Eat
the
better
,
if
they
are
too
dry
,
you
must
beat
them
with
a
Pestel
,
then
keep
them
in
warm
Water
with
a
handful
of
Bran
for
a
day
or
two

till
they
are
boyl'd
enough
,
before

are
served
up
;
the
Skin
must
be

,
Beef
,
and
other
Meat
well
,
as
is
used
in
Germany
and
Flanders
.
Your
Powdering
Tub
should
be
made
of
some
old
Cask
,
which
makes
it
much
the
better
;
then
boil
two
or
three
handfuls
of
Juniper
Seed
,
more
or
less
in
a
Kettle
of
Water
,
which
having
boyled
for
some
time
,
soak
the
Tub
in
that
Water
,
leaving
the
Seed
in
it
,
till
all
the
Wood
takes
the
scent
;
which
done
,
pour
it
out
,
and
put
in
clear

think
fit
,
some
quantity
of
Cloves
a
little
beaten
,
no
Pepper

Meat
must
lye
in
the
Powdering
Tub
a
Month
,
to
be
throughly
salted
;
and
take
care
above
all
things
,
that
no
Woman
in
her
Menstruum
come
near
it
,
for
it
would
cause
Corruption
.
The
Meat
being
taken
out
,
and
designed
to
be
dryed
presently
,
every
piece
must
immediately
be
steeped
in
boyling
Water
,

hung
up
with
a
Twig
of
Osier
,
in
some
place
where
the

wash
as
the
first
time

have
another
white
,

quite
so
good
as
the
first
.
Note
,
that

filtrating
the
Water
,
you

dry
;
when
you
would
use
it
dissolve
it
in
fair
water
,
and
grind
all
well
together
;
you
