Pharmacopœia Bateana, or, Bate's dispensatory translated from the second edition of the Latin copy, published by Mr. James Shipton : containing his choice and select recipe's, their names, compositions, preparations, vertues, uses, and doses, as they are applicable to the whole practice of physick and chyrurgery : the Arcana Goddardiana, and their recipe's intersperst in their proper places, which are almost all wanting in the Latin copy : compleated with above five hundred chymical processes, and their explications at large, various observations thereon, and a rationale upon each process : to which are added in this English edition, Goddard's drops, Russel's pouder [sic], and the Emplastrum febrifugum, those so much fam'd in the world : as also several other preparations from the Collectanea chymica, and other good authors / by William Salmon ...

III. Aqua Antiphthisica, A Water against Phthisicks.

Bate.] ℞ The Blood of a Calf new killed, freed from its Fibres, by beating together lbiij: Venice Turpentine, ten Ounces; Liquorice not dried lbj: Rai∣sons stoned ℥xij: Fat Figgs N^o 100: Garden Snails N^o

70: fresh Orice-Roots ℥vi: Spanish Tobacco cut ℥ij: Crums of White-bread lbj: mix and distill according to Art. Dose ℥ij, with its proper quantity of Oyl swimming thereupon, being all mixt together with a Pecto∣ral Syrup, and taken for fif∣teen days.

Salmon.] If this Medicine should receive a gentle Fer∣mentation before Distillation, it would be so much the bet∣ter, for by that means the Sulphur of the Fruit and Tur∣pen. being more intimately mixt with the Aqueous parts of the Blood and Snails, a more volatile Liquor would come over the helm. This in some Constitutions will gently Vomit, and in others cause a most admirable Ex∣pectoration, cleansing and healing Ulcers in the Lungs to a wonder, and thereby cure Consumptions, take a∣way Coughs and Colds, short∣ness of Breath, and Obstru∣ctions of the Lungs, and cause a free breathing.
