least_o in_o number_n the_o virtue_n of_o spirit_n of_o humane_a blood_n and_o because_o it_o require_v some_o skill_n and_o not_o seldom_o a_o pretty_a deal_n of_o time_n to_o draw_v this_o tincture_n from_o crude_a amber_n though_o fine_o powder_v i_o bethink_v myself_o of_o the_o follow_a way_n to_o draw_v speedy_o a_o strong_a tincture_n from_o the_o oil_n itself_o for_o though_o this_o oil_n will_v not_o even_o by_o long_a shake_n dissolve_v thorough_o in_o spirit_n of_o wine_n as_o the_o aromatic_a and_o other_o oil_n late_o mention_v will_v do_v yet_o i_o find_v that_o by_o well_o shake_v those_o two_o liquor_n together_o and_o leave_v they_o to_o settle_v at_o leisure_n though_o they_o will_v separate_v into_o distinct_a mass_n yet_o the_o spirit_n of_o wine_n will_v even_o in_o the_o cold_a extract_n from_o the_o oil_n a_o fine_a tincture_n of_o a_o high_a yellow_a colour_n little_a if_o at_o all_o different_z from_o that_o of_o the_o oil_n itself_o of_o which_o tincture_n i_o afterward_o mix_v as_o much_o with_o spirit_n of_o blood_n as_o suffice_v to_o obscure_v the_o urinous_a smell_n and_o make_v that_o of_o the_o oil_n of_o amber_n somewhat_o predominant_a and_o as_o we_o judge_v more_o subtle_a and_o brisk_a than_o it_o be_v before_o three_o thing_n more_o i_o have_v to_o intimate_v concern_v the_o external_a use_n of_o our_o spirit_n of_o blood_n the_o first_o be_v that_o by_o what_o have_v be_v say_v of_o the_o good_a effect_n it_o may_v have_v when_o after_o it_o have_v be_v by_o the_o late_o mention_v or_o other_o preparation_n imbue_v with_o chemical_a oil_n it_o be_v smell_v to_o i_o will_v by_o no_o mean_n be_v think_v to_o deny_v that_o it_o be_v after_o these_o change_n fit_a to_o be_v also_o inward_o employ_v as_o i_o shall_v have_v ere_o long_a occasion_n more_o particular_o to_o declare_v my_o second_o admonition_n shall_v be_v that_o whereas_o in_o some_o mixture_n it_o will_v be_v hard_a to_o hit_v upon_o the_o proportion_n of_o the_o chemical_a oil_n or_o other_o thing_n employ_v to_o correct_v the_o smell_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o blood_n so_o exact_o but_o that_o after_o the_o mixture_n have_v have_v some_o time_n to_o settle_v a_o separation_n of_o some_o oleaginous_a part_n will_v be_v make_v the_o bulk_n of_o the_o mixture_n may_v be_v free_v from_o it_o by_o pour_v all_o into_o a_o glass_n tunnel_n somewhat_o sharp_a at_o the_o bottom_n after_o the_o manner_n use_v among_o chemist_n to_o separate_v oil_n from_o other_o liquor_n and_o then_o the_o mixture_n that_o will_v run_v through_o before_o the_o oil_n may_v be_v keep_v close_o stop_v in_o a_o vial_n by_o itself_o and_o the_o fragrant_a oil_n unless_o it_o be_v of_o cinnamon_n or_o clove_n reserve_v for_o other_o use_n and_o whereas_o frequent_o if_o not_o most_o common_o if_o the_o vinous_a spirit_n be_v sufficient_o rectify_v there_o will_v by_o the_o concoagulation_n of_o the_o saline_n and_o urinous_a particle_n be_v produce_v a_o kind_n of_o salt_n you_o may_v either_o pour_v the_o liquid_a part_n from_o it_o into_o another_o vial_n and_o use_v each_o of_o they_o separately_z without_o more_o ado_n or_o else_o without_o thus_o separate_v they_o you_o may_v sublime_a with_o a_o very_a gentle_a warmth_n as_o much_o as_o will_v ascend_v from_o the_o rest_n of_o the_o mixture_n in_o a_o dry_a form_n and_o this_o sal_fw-la volatile_a oleosum_fw-la of_o spirit_n of_o blood_n when_o it_o be_v due_o prepare_v i_o find_v to_o be_v deprive_v of_o its_o former_a bad_a scent_n and_o perhaps_o endow_v with_o a_o fragrant_a one_o and_o yet_o to_o have_v a_o odour_n more_o subtle_a brisk_a and_o pierce_v than_o i_o have_v think_v it_o reasonable_a to_o expect_v the_o three_o and_o last_o thing_n i_o will_v advertise_v be_v that_o beside_o those_o medicinal_a use_n that_o may_v be_v make_v of_o the_o odour_n of_o spirit_n of_o blood_n simple_a or_o compound_v it_o may_v have_v considerable_a virtue_n apply_v in_o substance_n as_o a_o liquor_n by_o way_n of_o fomentation_n or_o otherwise_o which_o i_o think_v the_o more_o likely_a because_o the_o spirit_n of_o sal-armoniac_a have_v be_v much_o commend_v for_o mitigate_a the_o sharp_a pain_n of_o the_o gout_n and_o be_v say_v to_o have_v be_v successful_o use_v in_o the_o erysipelas_n and_o when_o i_o consider_v that_o our_o liquor_n be_v very_o spirituous_a and_o penetrate_a and_o so_o fit_a to_o strengthen_v and_o resolve_v and_o also_o of_o a_o alcalisate_n nature_n which_o fit_v it_o to_o mortify_v acidity_n it_o seem_v very_o probable_a that_o by_o virtue_n of_o these_o and_o other_o friendly_a quality_n it_o may_v by_o be_v apply_v in_o its_o liquid_a form_n prove_v good_a in_o divers_a case_n where_o the_o chirurgeon_n or_o the_o physician_n help_v be_v wont_a to_o be_v require_v but_o it_o be_v high_a time_n for_o i_o to_o proceed_v from_o the_o external_n to_o the_o internal_a use_n of_o the_o spirit_n of_o

necessary_a the_o number_n of_o specifical_o different_a morbific_a matter_n as_o physician_n call_v actual_o noxious_a humour_n or_o other_o substance_n in_o the_o humane_a body_n shall_v be_v near_o so_o great_a as_o that_o of_o the_o disease_n it_o be_v obnoxious_a to_o and_o consequent_o that_o every_o disease_n that_o have_v a_o distinct_a name_n assign_v to_o it_o do_v not_o always_o require_v a_o distinct_a sort_n of_o peccant_a matter_n to_o produce_v it_o but_o that_o the_o same_o hurtful_a humour_n or_o other_o agent_n may_v produce_v sickness_n that_o pass_v for_o differ_v one_o and_o according_o have_v distinct_a denomination_n only_o as_o the_o same_o morbific_a agent_n bad_a effect_n be_v diversify_v partly_o by_o its_o own_o great_a or_o lesser_a quantity_n and_o

opinion_n i_o have_v be_v lead_v by_o divers_a inducement_n that_o i_o shall_v not_o now_o stay_v to_o set_v down_o especial_o since_o the_o probability_n of_o it_o may_v be_v easy_o deduce_v from_o what_o frequent_o enough_o occur_v among_o sick_a person_n of_o the_o metastasis_n of_o morbific_a matter_n the_o same_o acid_n or_o sharp_a humour_n for_o instance_n produce_v sometime_o a_o colic_n

of_o the_o principal_a kind_n of_o morbific_a matter_n may_v be_v able_a to_o cure_v differ_v disease_n especial_o if_o it_o be_v endow_v with_o any_o variety_n of_o active_a virtue_n and_o upon_o
