BEing dronk or eatē fasting in losenges in the morning, it causeth a sweet breath, & is profitable for those that are short winded and cannot fetch their breath, but with great paine: it breaketh winde in the stomacke, belly, and guttes, it breaketh fleme, and causeth it to be spitte forth, it increa∣seth nature, it driueth forth poison by sweat, it comforteth the breast and lunges, it prouoketh vrine, and breaketh the stone in the raines & bladder, it is good against the bloudy flixe and piles. The nostrels being annointed therewith at night when ye goe to bed prouoketh sleepe, and wood being annointed therewith wil not suffer mothes to breede there.
