For Coughs especially such as proceed from thin Rheums TAke of choice Olibanum finely powder'd from one Scruple to half a Dram and mix carefully with it an equal weight of Sugar-candy white or brown or in want of that of fine Sugar and let the Patient take it at Bed-time in the Pap of an Apple or some other proper Additament for several nights together If it be found needful it may be taken at any other time when the Stomach is empty II. To give Ease in the Pains of the Stone even that of the Bladder TAke the transparent Sparr that grows upon the Veins of Lead-ore and having reduc'd it to fine Powder give from half a Dram to a whole Dram of it at a time in a moderate Draught of some convenient Vehicle N. B. Though there be at least in most of our English Mines two Teguments as it were of the Veins of Lead that grow close together yet that which the Diggers name Cawk which is white and opacous is not the Medicine I mean but the Transparent or at least Semi-Diaphanous which easily breaks into smooth Fragments and in the Fire cleaves into several pieces that are wont to be smooth and prettily shap'd III For Sharpness of Vrine TAke of the dry stuff that divides the Lobes of the Kernels of Walnuts beat them to Powder and of this give about half a Dram at a time in a draught of White-wine or Posset-drink made with it or in any other convenient Liquor IV. To Appease the Violent Pains of the Tooth-ach MAke up a Scruple of Pillulae Mastichinae and half a Grain of Laudanum into two or three Pills for the Patient to take at Bed-time V. For Agues TAke Salt of Card. Benedict and Salt of Wormwood ana 15 Grains Tartar Vitriolate half a Scruple mix them and give them in a few Spoonfuls of Rhenish-wine or of some other convenient Vehicle either before the Fit or at some other time when the Stomach is empty VI. For the Yellow-Jaundice TAke an Ounce of Castle Soap the Elder the better slice it thin put it into a Pint of Small-beer cold set it on the Fire let it boil gently half away after boiling some time scum it once then strain it through a small Sieve warm it and drink it all in a morning fasting take a small Lump of Sugar after it and fast two or three hours The Party may walk about his Business and eat his accustomed Meals If at any time he drinks Wine let it be White-wine N. B. If he be far gone in the Distemper two or three days after he may take it once or twice more and no oftner Refrain all other Medicines It will keep a Week or longer VII For the Jaundice TAke two or three Ounces of Semen Cannabis Hempseed and boil them till the Seeds some of them begin to burst and a little longer in a sufficient quantity of New Milk to make one good Draught which the Patient is to take warm renewing it if need be for some days together VIII For the Dysentery TAke Pigs-Dung dry it and burn it to grey not white Ashes of these give about half a Dram for a Dose Drinking after them about three Spoonfuls of Wine-Vinegar IX For the Kings Evil. TAke Cuttle-bone uncalcin'd and having scrap'd off the out-side or colour'd part dry the white part and of this finely powder'd give half a Dram for a Dose in Aqua Malvae X. A Safe and Easie Medicine in Fits of the Stone TAke Sack or in want of that Claret-wine and by shaking or otherwise mix with it as well as you can an equal quantity of Oyl of Walnuts and of this Mixture give from 4 or 6 to 8 or 10 Ounces at a time as a Glyster DECAD II. I. For Convulsions especially in Children TAke Earth-worms wash them well in White-wine to cleanse them but so as that they may not die in the Wine Then upon hollow Tiles or between them dry the Worms with a moderate heat and no further than that they may be conveniently reduc'd to Powder to one Ounce of which add a pretty number of Grains of Ambergrise both to perfume the Powder whose scent of it self is rank and to make the Medicine more Efficacious The Dose is from one Dram to a Dram and half in any convenient Vehicle II. For the Pyles TAke the Powder of Earth-worms prepared as in the former Receipt but leaving out the Ambergrise and incorporate it exactly with as much Hens-grease as will serve to make it up into an Oyntment Apply this to the Part affected whose Pains it usually much and safely mitigates III. To make Lime-water Vseful in divers Distempers TAke one Pound of good Quick-lime and slake it in a Gallon of warm Water and let it stand 'till all that will subside be settled at the bottom and Separation being made the Water swim clear at the 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 sufficiently impregnated delay not to pour it off warily and keep it very well stopp'd for Use IV. A Lime-water for Obstructions and Consumptions TAke a Gallon of Lime-water made as above and infuse in it cold Sassafras Liquorice and Anyseeds of each four Ounces adding thereto half a Pound of choice Currans or the like quantity of slic'd Raisins of the Sun The Dose of this compound Lime-water is four or five Ounces to be taken twice a day V. An Amulet against Agues especially Tertian TAke a handful of Groundsel shred and cut it small put it into a square Paper Bag of about four Inces every way pricking that side that is to be next the Skin full of large holes and cover it with some Sarcenet or fine Linnen that nothing may fall out Let the Patient wear this upon the Pit of his Stomach renewing it two hours before every Fit VI. For Women in Labour to bring away the Child TAke about one Dram of choice Myrrh and having reduc'd it to fine Powder let the Patient take it in a Draught of Rhenish-wine or Sack or if you would have the Liquor less active White-wine Posset-drink or some other temperate Vehicle VII For Strengthening the Bowels TAke Cloves or Chives
