to give a large Fee to a worthy and able Physician nor to answer the Charge of an Apothecary's Bill tho' but reasonable I therefore publish this Book to give Notice to all Persons that I will afford my Medicines more reasonable than any Man can by reason I make and prepare all my self and will go when sent for to visit any Patient cheaper than any Man I know and for this my Charity I hope your Experience will crown my Works and a Blessing attend my Endeavours in that I afford Medicines of great Worth for a little Money An Account of the Doctor 's Remedies and how to take them I Am not ashamed to give an account of what I profess nor to express of what my Pills and Tincture are made that those who are expert Practitioners who indeed are only capable to judge of their Excellence may give their Opinion of them and those that desire further Satisfaction of my Abilities let them examine those that have made tryal of me and of my Stomach Pills and Tincture which are only an extract of the chiefest Simples of the Family of Vegetables that are Specificks Hepaticks an● Spleneticks My Antiscorbutick Tincture is drawn from an Infusion of Scurvy-Grass Liver-wort Hearts Tongu● Tamarask and Hepatick and Splenetick Ingredients therefore they are more proper for Curing the Scurv● with all its crowd of Symptoms than commmo● Spirit of Scurvy-Grass and consequently I may justl● commend my Pilula Stomachica Tinctura Antiscorbutica that is my Stomach Pill and Tincture again●● the Scurvy to be most useful and profitable for al● those for whom I have the best Wishes and therefore I advise all my Friends and Neighbours t● make tryal of these my Pills and Tincture which wil● cure those complicated Distempers intermixt wit● the Scurvy by rectifying the Scorbutick Humour● by cleansing the Stomach from all peccant matte● that hinders Digestion also they carry off all aci● or acrimonious Iuyce or any undigested thing tha● breeds adust Choler whence frequent Diseases ar● derived therefore it is most proper to take a Dos● or two of these Pills to carry off those Humour● before one enters upon any other Medicine to effe●● a Cure To apply things outwardly as some do to Brea●ings out or Sores of a Scorbutick nature is hurtful for it drives back the Humours into the Stomach which cause Sickness and Vomiting want of Appetit● Pains and Wind in the Stomach and adjacent Parts and makes the Stomach to lose its Tone and Rectitude and then the Body can enjoy no Health besides a bad Chylification is the original of many Diseases How careful then ought People to be in keeping the Kitchen of their Bodies I mean their Stomachs clean since that would be the only means to prevent Diseases as well as cure them nay this would so preserve Health that Men might attain the Happiness of seeing the utmost of their appointed days with Ease and Comfort It was the Opinion of the ancient Physicians That the Stomach and Spleen contained a Ferment which hindred them from performing rightly what they were intended for because the abundance of fixt Salt falling upon the Stomach causeth soure and unsavoury Belchings from which also proceeds melancholick tenacious gross and crude Humours which mixing with the Mass of Blood causeth a Cachexy which obstructs the Liver and finally ends in Scorbutick Distempers Now my Pills and Tincture are the most excellent means yet known for their Cure and Prevention by cleansing and sweetning the whole Mass of Blood and nervous Iuyce rectifying all the Defects and Injuries that putrifie the Blood which being corrupt defileth the whole Habit of Body and is the Cause of Eruptions or all sorts of Breakin gs out as Itch Leprosie Spots Ring-worms Kings-Evil and all sorts of Swellings in the Joynts or other parts which sometimes turns into Fistula's or such fretting Vlcers or Sores that will hardly admit of Cure till the Scorbutick Humours be carried off and the Mass of Blood cleansed from the aforesaid Humours the primary Cause thereof therefore you must first remove their Cause before you can effect a Cure Sometimes these Humours break out principally in the Head and then it turns to the Scurff or Scald-Head Sometimes they fall on the Eyes and produce Lachrymarious Humours which endanger the Sight by breeding Cataracts and Glaucoma's and if they obstruct the Optick Nerves incurable Cataracts follow Sometimes these Humours over-heat the Brain by reason of Vapours which arise from the lower parts of the Body sent up to the Head and then they bring Deafness by obstructing the Organs and auditory Nerves which hinder the Drum and Anvil from sending the Eccho to the Brain and many times is the Cause of more stubborn Diseases as Cancers in the Breast Gouts of all sorts Dropsies Iaundice Collick Pains with Griping in the Bowels Stitches in the Sides Pains and Weakness of the Back Obstructions of the Liver Spleen Mesentary Diaphragma Tranchea Arteria and Stoppage of the Pipes of the Lungs hence come Asthma's and Consumption Coughs with Shortness of Breath and when the Stomach is stufft with these ill Scorbutick Humours we are afflicted with Giddiness of the Head Convulsion-Fits and lastly with Contraction of the Nerves Sometimes by over-charging of Nature with strong Drinks proceed Vapours which cause Apoplexies Belchings and loss of Appetite Sometimes these Scorbutick Humours produce Numbness and Tingling in the Flesh and so turn to a Palsie with Weakness and Wearisomness wasting of the Flesh and decay of Body besides in Old and Young these Humours bring Swooning and by coagulating of the Blood hinders its Fermentation and then the Influx of Spirit● to the Heart is stop'd There is no Disease more like Death than these Swooning-Fits Fermentation once hindred any peccant Humours that abound in the Blood are no longer mixt with its Mass but soon separates by the Pores of the Arteries and so sticking by its Viscidity among the Membranes of the Stomach causes Vomiting when the Patient comes to himself Let this suffice for the Cause of Swooning in general As for the Vterine Swooning of Virgins it arises sometimes from the Womb and shows it self by Anxiety and almost loss of Breathing yet sometimes these Scorbutick Humours by heat condence and breed Stone and Gravel which is the Cause of Stop-page and Sharpness of Vrin they may know their Distemper by their Urin which is thin pale venous and hath red Gravel sticking to the Pot. Sometimes there is a Scum or Cream on the top of the Urin. And thus much I thought fit to say of the Scurvy such as would know more may consult my little Pamphlet I formerly set out for the Cure of the Sick and Diseased through God's Blessing by my Famous Medicines therein mentioned This is the Second Edition for some Reasons I have left many things out that were in that In that Book I gave an account of Three Pills and a Quart Bottle of Diet-Drink which Three Pills and Bottle

And the Fire shall burn up the corruption of the World and the works therein shall in a Moment in the twinkling of an Eye overtake all that are then in ●eing and whether it finds them either grinding in the Mill of Provision or walking in the Fields of Pleasure or lying in the Bed of Ease it will put a ●●riod to their present Enterprizes it will burn up ●he dross and corruption of Mortals making them put on Immortality and this change shall be unto the Righteous instead of Death then shall they like ●●och lift up their heads and behold the glorious Angels of the Lord like so many Gabriels flying towards them to tell them that the day of their Redemption is come and to convey them through the Region of the Air to meet their Redeemer Lo they are at hand arise therefore my Dove my Love my Fair One and come away Nay all the Just both Quick and Dead being Glorified shall forthwith by ●he careful Ministry of God's ●oly Angels be gathered together from all the Q●arters and Parts of the World and be caught in the Clouds to meet the 〈◊〉 Triumphing in the Air and so shall become as a part of his Glorious Train attending him in his Procession to the Judgment Seat where he and they will sit in Judgment upon the Reprobates and Evil Angels The Twelve Apostles shall sit upon Twelve Thrones next unto Christ to Judge the Twelve Tribes that refused to hear the Gospel Preached 〈◊〉 their Ministry and as every one of the Apostles received Grace in this Life to be more Zealous of his Glory and more faithful in God's Service than othe●● from that day for evermore they shall exceed the re●● in Glory and a●l the Saints in honour and order shall stand next to them that Judge both the Evil Angels Reprobates and bad minded Men who for want of a true confidence in God put trust in uncertain Riches or in false Prophets and run a Who●ing after strange Gods of their own making They will in ●ine ●e Judges of all such as have Liv'd without a due fear of this Judgment as if there was no such thing A Sabbatism signifies a Rest upon a Seventh most likely as Iude hi●●s verse 14. in the Seventh and last Age of the World Further to explain this Sabbatism the Apostle minds them to keep a Sabb●tism every seventh Day out of which weekly Seventh was form'd their petty Iubilee of the Seven times Seven Years viz. beginning at the end of the Forty Ninth Year Their viz. the Iews longer Rest in Canaan was also a kind of Sabbatism they counted the Year of the World 2500 a Jubilee of Jubilee's Their Return out of Babylon where they had been about Seventy Years was about the Seventh Jubilee from the Creation Now saith the Apostle to the Believers in effect thus You must have a Sabbatism a Sabbatical Rest that must correspond to those former Rests ever since the Creation But what Sabbatism Septenary or Seventh of Rest can we find out besides those aforesaid but a Sabbath of a Thousand Years viz. the last Thousand Years of S●●en Thousand before the ultimate general Day o● Judgment This the Ancients assert with one Cons●ur grounding themselves upon the Scriptures ●●eir Words in Summ are these As every Seventh D●y and Year was ordain'd a Day and Year of Rest and Release so the Seventh Thousand Years of the World is the Time of the Rest and Release of the World according to the 90 th and 92 d Psalms All Orthodox Divines distinguish the Church of the Mediatour into visible and invisible and not in●o several kinds tho' the Church may be made up o● several Nations yet the Church and the Word 〈◊〉 still of the same Nature in Essence the Word makes the Church of the same Uniform from the Beginning to the End the Church that I speak of is an uniform Church in the internal Form which is Union in and with Christ and through Him with one another Eph. 4. In several Ages it had several Forms in Adam's time it was outwardly most glorious as well as inwardly perfect in the Ten Fathers time before the Flood it was in Families with a mean outward Glory in the time of Tabernacles made by Moses and of the Temple built by Solomon it had a world of g●orious Types in the New Testament in the first 300 Years it was mean in Constantine's time and downwards it had a great deal of outward Glory but of late times in many places very mean yet still we truly confess one universal Church in Kind Nature Essence and i● internal Form when Christ's time shall ●ome he will make the Church Spiritually and Eternally glorious and she will sing Allelujah for her safe Delivery at the ultimate Day of Judgment but how long this ultimate Day may be how long ere the Evening of the Millenary Day will be in coming we cannot t●ll because the Prophets of the Old Testament in general have spoken of the Times of Restitution but have not spoken of all things that are to be f●lfill'd and many things in the New Testament the Apostles tell us were hid in old time and St Iohn's Six first Seals Trumpe●s and Viols shew as much as also the binding of Satan c. Some think the Opinion of the Thousand Years makes Christ's Kingdom to be Earthly but the Scriptures make it to be Spiritual neither doth the Word of God make the Kingdom of the M●diatour of two kinds and of a different nature but one and uniform from the Beginning to the End Luke 1.32 Also in this New Creation when things shall be re-created or made a-new there shall be no noisome Fumes Vapours or any noxious Exhalations fier● or watry c. to cause Sickness Death it self 〈◊〉 then be swallowed up in Victory 1 Cor. 15. and all Sorrow removed Rev. 21.4 the Air shall not be an Habita●ion for Devils as formerly for which he was called Prince of the Air Eph. 2.2 but the Devil shall be chained up Re● 20.2 and every Vnclean Spirit shall be removed far away from the Church Zech. 13.2 As in the first Creation God made all things in a short time so will it be in the new Creation for Christ will then do great things suddenly Isai. 66.8 The Appearance of Christ shall be on a sudden Matth. 24.27 the Change of the Believers surviving at Christ's Coming shall be effected in a moment in the Twinkling of an Eye 1
