Take a strong Glass Bottle, and put half a pint of Spirit of Wine into it, add an ounce of Cinnamon, half an ounce of Cloves, a gross of Ginger, and as much Coriander as you can hold with your Fore-Finger and Thumb well beaten, three or four grains of black Amber, or Ambergrise beaten in a Stone Mortar, stop the Bottle very fast, and set it on Sand, exposing it to the Sun for a Month: the Bottle in this case must not be full, nor stand out in the Rain; This is a curious and wholesome Perfume.
