Take a quart of Milke, & a Pint of ordinary distill'd Plantane Water; boyle them away to a quart: (which You may afterwards sweeten if You please with Sugar of Roses or some such thing.) & let the Patient use it for his ordinary Drinke - Given me to-day by Dr Davis, & by him very often prov'd.

Take common undulcify'd Præcipitate well made; grind it to an impalpable Powder; & with as much Egyptiacum as will suffice (for that's all the rule) make it into an Ointment (which if You would moderate You may qualify with a little Mel rosarum) with which anoint lightly th[e][hole in page] Lips of the Sore.

About a Dram of Bores Tuske, in powder often cures it without Blood-Letting.

Take to one quart of Oyle-olive 12 ounces of finely beaten & searced Red Lead; mingle them well together, & set them over the Fire in a good large Bell-mettle skillet; it must be a soft fire, & it must never do more then simper, (for if it should boyle it would fly dangerously;) & be stirr'd with a broad sticke or Paddle continually, till at that rate it grow blacke: Then dip Your Cloathes (which are best if they be new,) & when they are dry rowle them up in Papers. If You would make any of Your stuffe into Rowles for Salve, let it stand longer on the Fire to grow stiffer then it need be for Your seare-clothes. - It's excellent for Aches, Bruses, Spraines, wounds or cuts; applyed warme to the Place; it may be wiped & applyed againe, & turned one side after another, till the Vertue be all gone; that is, till the stuffe be worne off.
