LXII. † Spiritus Raphani Compositus, Spirit of Ra∣dishes compound.

℞ Sal Armoniack, Tartar calcin'd with Nitre, A. dissolve them in Wormwood-water com∣pound, distilled without the Spirit, and in Scurvy-grass Water compound, A. q. s. (see them cap. 1. sect. 62. & 63. of this Book) mix the Soluti∣ons, and distil them in Glass or Tin Vessels in B. M.

Salmon.] § 1. How this can be called Spirit of Ra∣dishes, without any Radishes at all in it, I cannot tell, un∣less the name is given to it from the small quantity of Horse-Radish Roots in the Scurvygrass Water mention∣ed, being but a fifth part of the Scurvygrass in the said Composition, and not above a twelfth part of this present Recipe. § 2. The best way of making it is thus: ℞ The said Wormwood and Scurvygrass Waters compound A. lbxvj. Horse-Radish Roots bruised lbviij. mix and distil in B.M. to driness, which cohobate twice or thrice, then take Sal Ar∣moniack and Tartar calcin'd with Nitre A. lbiv. of the for∣mer distilled Water or Spirit of Horse-Radishes, lbviij. mix and dissolve, and then distil the Spirit as we have taught you to distil the Spirit of Sal Armoniack at Sect. 24. § 2.8.10. of this Chapter. § 3. It has all the Virtues of the simple Spirit of Sal Armoni∣ack, and therefore is of sin∣gular use against Pleurisies, Quinsies, and all manner of Obstructions whatsoever; besides which, it is of appro∣ved Vertue against the Gra∣vel and Stone, whether in the Reins or Bladder, or any o∣ther matter which may ob∣struct the Urine in those parts: It also facilitates the Delivery, if given to a Wo∣man in Labour. Dose à gut. 20. ad 60. Plus-minus, in a Glass of Wine.
