Pilulae de Sabina, or Pills of Savin.

Take salt of Savin two parts, Oyl stilled from Savin one part. They being mixed, seal them Hermetical∣ly, and set them in a Philosophical fire so long, till they are hard like a stone; afterwards, Take of our Pil. Aloephanginae an ounce and a half, of this Stone prepa∣red an ounce, Venetian Borax three drams, Extract of our species Dialauri, flowers of the lesser Centaury, the herb Savin, of each half a dram; Oriental Saffron a scruple. Mix them, and with Oyl of Juniper make a mass; from which afterward with Oyl of Cinamon and Mace make Pills.

Virtue, Use, and Dose. These Pills do so happily open the obstructions of the Womb, and so plenti∣fully move the Terms retained, that they deservedly claim the first place among Physical Arcana's that move the Courses. The dose morning and evening is from a scruple to half a dram.
