Salmon.] § 1. The Chalk ought to be levigated, so also the Crabs-eyes, the Stone of a Carps-head, the Pearl and Co∣ral, and that by the help of Violet or Damask-Rose-water.

§ 2. The Liquorice ought to be in a very subtile and fine Pouder, so also the Saffron, Mace, and Nutmegs; but how the Quince-seeds will be reduced as they should be, I know not.

§ 3. If you have not pure Chalk, you may in place thereof take Terra Sigillata, of the white kind, which will do full as well, if not bet∣ter.

§ 4. This Remedy prepa∣red with the Terra Sigillata, I have given many times in Pains of the Stomach, (so ve∣hement, as to be beyond al∣most all manner of expression) but never without Success, for those Pains being commonly caused from the biting of the Acid Humor, this Pouder be∣ing an Alcali, absorbs the Acid, and so delivers the Sick. Dose à ʒss. ad ʒij.
