Electuarium è succo Rosarum. Pag. 117. in L. Book. Or, Electuary of the Juyce of Roses.

The Colledg] Take of Sugar, the juyce of red Ro∣ses clarified, of each a pound and four ounces; the three sorts of Sanders of each six drachms, Spodium three drachms, Diacydonium twelve drachms, Cam∣phire a scruple: Let the Juyce be boyled with the Su∣gar to its just thickness, then add the rest in Pouder and so make it into an Electuary according to art.

Culpeper] A. It purgeth Choller, and is good in tertian Agues, and diseases of the joynts; it purgeth violently, therefore let it be warily given. I omit the dose, because it is not for a vulgar use. I would not willingly have my Country men do themselves a mischief; let the Gentry study Physick, then shall they know what belongs to it. A lazy Gentry makes blockheaded Physitians.
