Lixivium Cephalicum, or a Lixivium for the Head.

Take leaves of Sena six drams, roots of Florentine Flower-de-luce, and seeds of Carduus, of each three drams; the herb Eyebright with the flowers, Vervain, Marjoram, Rosemary, Sage and Origanum, of each three drams; the best Agarick a dram and a half, flowers of yellow Stoechas, Chamomil, red Roses and white Violets, of each a dram. They being all cut and mixt, let them be boiled in a good Lixivium, then let it be clarified according to Art, and it is prepared.

Virtue and Use. It is very profitable in pains of the Head. It roborates the Brain, Nerves, Eyes, and all the other Senses. Let the Head be washed with it twice in the week: But they who are cold and moist naturally, ought to use Lotions for the Head but seldom; but those who are hot and dry, may use them more frequently.
