Cinnamon Water made by Infusion.

The Colledg] Take of Cinnamon bruised, four ounces; Spirit of Wine, two pints; infuse them to∣gether four daies, in a large glass close stopped with Cork and a Bladder, shaking the Glass twice a day.

Dissolve half a pound of white Sugar Candy, in a quart of Rose water; then mix both these liquors to∣gether, then put into them four grains of Musk, and half a scruple of Ambergreese tied up in a linnen rag and hung to the top of the glass.

Culpeper] In my opinion this latter water is more prevalent for heart-qualms, and faintings than Ma∣thiolus his, neither is it half so hot, therefore more safe.
