Salmon.] § 1. The Caput Mortuum here mentioned and intended, is that which is left from that Volatile Sal Armoniack which is made of equal parts of Sal Armoniack and Salt of Tartar.

§ 2. Its chief use is in Ob∣structions of the Reins, Ure∣ters and Bladder, and to ex∣pel Sand, Gravel, or any Tartarous matter filling those parts: it is good also to open Obstructions of the other Viscera, and is profitable, a∣gainst Cachexies, Dropsies, Yellow Jaundice, Scurvy, Gout, and Rheumatick Di∣stempers.
