XVI. Nitrum Sulphuratum, Sulphurated Nitre.

Bate.] ℞ Spirit of Sul∣phur ℥iv. fine Nitre ℥iv. mix and distil to dryness, cohoba∣ting thrice, and at length in∣creasing the Fire, till the Ves∣sel is red-hot. It has the Ver∣tues of Sal-Primellae.

Salmon.] § 1. Our Text teaches you to cohobate, or to use again the Spirit distil∣led off; but some Authors think it would be good to use fresh Spirit each time, else I fear you will scarcely have the the Spirit come as Acid off, as it went on, which it ought to do, and then you have a good Medicine indeed; but by this latter way, your Salt will be much the dear∣er.

§ 2. At last the Vessel is made red-hot because all the superfluous Spirit (as Le Mort calls it) it may be taken a∣way, by which means your Salt will be the dryer, whiter, and purer.

§ 3. It is highly aperitive, stomatick and nephritick, re∣fists Putrefaction in the high∣est degree, and therefore is said to be a singular thing to preserve from the Infection of the Plague, or any other infectious Disease; it quenches thirst, cools the heat of Fe∣vers how violent soever, and provokes Urine. It is good against the Putrefaction of the Teeth, cleanses them, and takes away the stinking of the Mouth. Dose, à gr. iij. ad ℈j. in Canary, or other proper Vehicle.
