LVII. Stypticum Regis, The Royal Styptick of King Charles II.

Bate.] ℞ To Vitriol dissol∣ved, filtrated, precipitated with Spirit of Vinegar, edulcated and dried, affuse Oyl of Vitriol, and distil by a Retort to dri∣ness. The Caput Mortuum digest with Spirit of Wine, fil∣ter warm, and abstract: dis∣solve the Salt remaining in the bottom, with four times its weight of Water, by digestion, and the Styptick is done. Its use is both internal and exter∣nal; Dose gut. 10.20, &c. in all sorts of Haemorrhagies, or Bleedings.

Salmon.] The first part of the Prescript, is only an arti∣ficial Method, teaching you how to make Spirit of Vitriol, which is possibly better than the ordinary method: the whole in short is this: You must first extract a Salt out of the Caput Mortuum of Vitriol, with Spirit of Wine: this Salt you must dissolve in four times its weight of fair Water, and your Styptick is made. This is the great Styptick which made such a noise in the World, and for the know∣ledge of which K. Charles II. gave a vast Sum of Mo∣ney. It is not only a great Styptick, as to the stopping of violent Hemorrhagies, but a most excellent Vulnerary, possibly one of the best yet known in the World. In spittings of Blood, Bloody Fluxes, (Universals being pre∣mised) violent Fluxes of the Terms, pissing Blood, it is a noble Arcanum, and upon an exigency worth a whole A∣pothecaries Shop.
