Virtue, Use, and Dose. This Water is not undeser∣vedly called Chast, because it doth so restrain and bridle the fiery prolifick Seed of Monks, Nuns, Wi∣dows, and others who are appointed to live a single life, so that all libidinous persons use it, who are Lo∣vers of Chastity and Modesty, and are willing to suppress those excitements without danger to their health: For by its frigidity and a certain occult qua∣lity it dissolves the Venereal matter. Besides, it cures the Gonorrhoea or Flux of Seed without any trouble, universal Remedies being premised. The dose is morning or evening, or in time of necessity, from one ounce to three.
