XXXVII. Spiritus Vini Scu∣cinatus, Spirit of Wine with Amber.

Bate.] ℞ Pouder of Amber ℥iv. Alcohol of Spirit of Wine ℥xij. mix and distil in B. M. S. A. It is Cephalick, or good against Diseases of the Head, &c.

Salmon.] § 1. The method how you are to perform this, we have exactly shewed in Our Pharmacopoeia Londinen∣sis, lib. 4. cap. 3. sect. 39. to which I refer you. It is much pleasanter than Oyl of Am∣ber, and in my opinion more subtil and piercing, and there∣fore of greater efficacy. § 2. You may also do it after this manner: ℞ Of the best re∣ctified Spirit of Wine (three or four times drawn off from the best volatile Sal Armoniack, or rather digested six Months thereon) lbij. Oyl of Amber of the first d••••wing ℥ij. mix, digest two or three days, and then draw them off together in a Glass Body; so will you have the Potestates Succini, of admirable subtilty. § 3. This Medicine is good for all that the Oyl is good for, and may be given inwardly a∣gainst Vapours, Hysterick Fits, and all Distempers of the Head, Nerves, and Womb. Outwardly to bathe with, it cures Palsies, Numbness, Cramps, Convulsions, Pains, Aches, Sciatica's and Gouts, proceeding from a cold cause, in what part of the Body so∣ever. Dose à gut. 30. ad 60.
