with my Tinctura Caelestis in the ●ands of Mr. Robert Butcher a worthy person of that Town He took of it ac●ording to the Direction of this Paper and in a short time was restored to perfect health and ●ontinues lusty and strong since which he occasionlly coming to London came to visit me ●nd gave me an account of disease and cure which next to Divine providence he own'd my Tincture only Furthermore in Diseases of the Reins Vreters and Bladder as also the Seminall Genital Parts Its virtues are so great that all that I am able to say in my Praises of ●s incomparable Tincture cannot come up to its deserved Character But this I must 〈◊〉 and modestly to that 〈…〉 ●er and efficacy to cleanse and scour those parts and deliver them from all mann●● viscous matter which is apt to be generated there and cause many violent Diseases 〈◊〉 Obstructions Inflamations Vlcers Runnings and Wastings even to the Consumption of th● whole strength and substance of the body But especially in that most deplorable Disease that can happen to miserable Man the STONE it is of unparalell'd Virtue Vse And though I will not say that upon the present taking this Tincture will forthwith break the Stone in pieces as with a Hammer nor will any Man who knows what he says affirm it of any one or all the Medicines in the World But its great Operations are exerted by rectifying the deprev'd quality of the Kidnies abolishing that matter of which the Stone is formed laying open the passages of the Vreters that were obstructed and making them thereby more f●ee and opportune to the draining away and expelling that lapidescent matter Nature it self being thus releived and assisted will find it no hard matter to ease it self And the Stone for want of such matter to supply its growth will be apt to wast and moulder away and by the powerful impulse of this Noble Tincture flow out in smaller particles with the Vrine as hath been prov'd by sufficient Experience and may be confirm'd by substantial Testimonies among many I will here incert one from Mr Robert Butcher of Marlborough before mentioned a Man of unquestionable Reputation and Integrity I give it you in the words of his Letter Your Tincture generally doth good and answers peoples Expectations Here was an Old Man of about 70 Years of age lay very bad with the Stone he took one Glass and the next day brought away several stones of a great bigness two of which I have in my house I shall add one instance more upon this Subject A Minister of a Town within 3 or 4 Miles from Southampton coming to London came to me to take from mine own hands a quantity of my Tincture to carry into the Country for his own use and that of his family and Friends Discoursing with me about my Tinctura Caelestis told me how highly he esteeme it for that he had taken of it from Mr. Powel Bookseller in Southampton my Correspondent and that he had been long troubled with the Stone and used ma●y Medicines in vain bu● taking of my Tincture the very first Glass brought from him ●●●●y Stones I lately also received a Letter from Mr. Alexander Kemp Chirurgeon in Basing Stoke in Hamp-shire of an Eminent Cure he did with this my Tincture Caelestis upon man who had been severely afflicted with a swelling in his Privities large and very painful who continues sound and very well I could add many others but I am confined and these must at present suffice to shew that by these powerful and effectual opperations this Caelestial TINCTVRE dot● comfort support and preserve the Principal parts and Members of the Body as the Head Heart Stomach Liver Gall Spleen Mesentery Reins and Bladder in the just measure o● strength and Vigour which is of the greatest importance in the World according t● that of Paracelsus Conserva membra principalia mors non facile eveniet saith he Pr●serve the principal Members of the Body and death makes but slow approaches But when the are out of order and cease to perform those Offices for which God and Nature ordaine● them the Strength fades Sickness prevails and Death obtains the Conquest In that Vniversally lamented Disease the Scurvey it is a certain and Soveraign Remed● for as the Scurvey is a disease of the whole Body known by a dull heavy listless f●● and lazy indisposition to undertake and perform the common actions of Life that wea●ness and uneasiness in such as are necessitated to follow business so it is also apparent● sharp putrid humours seizing the more remote and solid parts of the Body causing 〈…〉 ●oose discoloured soul and unsavoury Teeth and Brea●h ●lso red or blewish Spots like flea-bites in the skin of the Breast Arms Thighs and Leggs sickness of the Stomach weak digestions loss of Appetite Wind Stretching and Belching also risings in the skin like the stinging of Nettles and also frequent moveable pains in the Back Sides Head Shoulders Arms Leggs and Joynts as are sometimes suspected to be a worse Disease and very often passeth for the Gout and degenerateth oftentimes into the Dropsy and hath at other times the Jaundies joyned with it with many other violent symptoms hard to be described being infinitely various according to the different constitutions of such as suffer under them All which are caused by a general defection and revolt of the principal Members before mentioned from their several offices and functions whereby an abundance of evil humours are ●eaped up to the annoying and disordering the whole frame and complexion of the Body Now for the certain Cure and total rooting out of this woful Distemper there is not a more ready and exquisite Medicine than this Celestial Tincture to be ●sed as hereafter mentioned Moreover this GREAT TINCTVRE is incomparably prevalent against the many Diseases of Women which out of a respect to that tender Sex I forbear to describe at large Therefore in short It is a present h●lp in the many infirmities of the Womb cleansing it from those impure humours which slow into it causing Fits of the Mother Vapours which disturb the Head Heart Stomach and Vitals causing great Stopping Swelling Strangulation Vlcers Pains and infinite other dismal effects throughout the whole Body by reason of its affinity with all the Noble parts In all which it gives a seasonable relief and preserves Nature in her due Course It restores to the Pale Virgin a fresh and pleasant Countenance and to such as want their Feminine sickness it brings That with all the case and satisfaction that can be expected and so prevents a multitude of Evils which usually attend those defects It is exceeding available in Worms in Children and in the Rickets it affords present help In times of Contagion it is an high preservative and keeps off all Infection which will be of great use to such as by full eating and drinking and other easie and luxuriant ways of living are apt to get Surfeits and Fevers and will probably be more obnoxious to such Diseases in this ensuing year which according to the Perdictions of our Astronomers taken from those dreadful Configurations of the Heaven and Malevolent Aspects of the superior Planets is like to produce many Mortal Sicknesses And happy are they who have such Means at hand and prudence to consider a threatning mischief and prevent it Lastly In all these Sicknesses Diseases Distempers Infirmities Indispositions o● the whole or any of the parts and Members of the Body herein mentioned this Generous Medicine my TINCTVRA CAELISTIS is prepared to answer all the indications and intentions of their Cure being of Virtue equivalent to their Exigences accommodated to
