Syrupus Jujubinus. Page 58. in the Latin Book. O R Syrup of Jujubes.

The Colledg. Take of Jujubes, Violets, five drachms; Maiden∣hair, Liquoris, French Barley, of each an ounce; the seeds of Mallows five drachms; the seeds of white Poppies, Melones, Lettice, [seed of Quinces and Gum Tragacanth tyed up in a rag] of each three drachms; boyl them in six pound of rain or spring water till half be consumed, strain it and with two pound of sugar make it into a syrup.

Culpeper. A. Those that adore the Colledg as so many little God-a-mighties, let them ask them what part of the Violets must be put in, for they must operate as neer to their meanings as the men of Benjamin could throw a stone and not miss; others that do not, may be pleased to make use of the Flowers.

A. It is a fine cooling syrup, very available in Coughs, Hoarsness, and Pleuresies, Ulcers of the Lungues, and Bladder, as also in all inflamations whatsoever. You may take a spoonful of it once in three or four hours, or if you please take it with a Liquoris stick.
