Suffimentum Epilepticum, or an Epileptick Fume.

Take white Amber eleven drams, red Myrrh, elect Mastich, Gum Animae, Galbanum and Elemi, of each two drams; Misleto of the Oak, seeds of Peony huked, Iuniper-berries, shavings of Elks horn, of each a dram; Wormwood, Marjoram, Lavender flowers, flower of Lily of the valley, red Roses, of each half a dram. Mix them, and with an Infusion of Tragacanth made in our Epileptick water, make little Troches or Balls.

Virtue and Use. These being laid on coals, and the Fume received up into the Nose by one that is grieved with the Epilepsie, takes away the fit; and is very profitable for those who are troubled with dangerous diseases of the Head, as the Apoplexy and Palsie, &c. It is also used against the suffocation and falling out of the Womb.
