The Colledg] Take of Gentian, Bay-berries, Mirrh, round Birthwort, of each two ounces, Honey two pound, make them into an Electuary according to Art.

Culpeper] A. This is a gallant Electuary, like the Author, which was Mesue. It wonderfully helps cold infirmities of the brain, as convulsions, falling∣sickness, dead palseys, shaking palseys &c. as also the stomach, as pains there, wind, want of digestion; as also stoppings of the Liver, dropsies; it resists the pestilence, and poysons, and helps the bitings of ve∣nemous beasts. The dose is from half a drachm to two drachms, according to the age and strength of the patient, as also the strength of the diseases; you may take it either in the morning or when urgent oc∣casion cals for it.
