Syrupus Cardiacus, vel Julepum Cardiacum. Pag. 53. O R A Cordial Syrup.

The Colledg. Take of Rhenish Wine two pound, Rose water two ounces and an half, Cloves two seruples, Cinnamon half a drachm, Ginger two scruples, Sugar three ounces and an half, boyl it to the consistence of a Ju∣lep, adding Amber-greese three grains, Musk one grain.

Culpeper. A. He that hath read thus far in this Book, and doth not know he must first boyl the Simples in the Wine, and then strain them out before he puts in the Sugar, is a man that in my opinion hath not 〈◊〉〈◊〉 enongh to be taught to make up a Medicine; and the Colledg in their new Master-piece hath left it out.

A. If you would have this Julip keep long, you may put in more Sugar, and yet if close stopped, it will not easily corrupt because 'tis made up only of Wine; indeed the wisest way is to order the quantity of sugar according to the* 1.1 pallat of him that takes it.

A. It restoreth such as are in Consumptions; com∣forts the heart, cherisheth the drooping spirits, and is of an opening quality, thereby carrying away those vapors which might otherwise anoy the brain and heart: You may take an ounce at a time, or two if you please.
