Culpeper.
If you find your Lungs be too dry, you may moisten them with Medicines, but be sure they be such Medi∣cines as strengthen them also; be not too busie fiddle-faddling with your own Bodies, 'tis an easier matter for you to make your selves sick than well, yet I say if you manifestly find your Lungs too dry, and find your selves withal prejudiced in health by it, thus you may moisten them, viz. by taking Lohoch Sa••um, now and then with a Liquoris stick; as also Syrup of Violets, Poppies, and Coltsfoot.
Simples Medicinal are, the Seeds of white Poppies, Jujubes, Sebestens, Strawberry Leaves, Violet Leaves and Flowers, &c.
