Salmon.] § 1. There are several Compositions of this Antidote: In our Pharm. Lond. Lib. 4. Cap. 22. Sect. 63. we have given you one according to the Italian form, rom Schroder.

§ 2. In our Doron, Medic. Lib. 2. Cap. 22. Sect. 5. we ave given you another from Charras, according as it is made at Paris, and this is accounted the true Recipe.

§ 3. Our Author here gives you one different from both them (but in my Opini∣on) much superior to them for Vertues and Goodness, and not more difficult to make; this Estimation I put upon it because of the addi∣tion of the Elaeosaccharum's, which vastly add to the va∣lue and worth of the Me∣dicament.

§ 4. It is good against all sorts of Poysons, Small-Pox, Measles, purple and spotted Fever, Plague, and other epidemick and malign Di∣seases; it is Cephalick, Neu∣rotick, Stomatick, Cardiack, Uterine and Nephritick, pre∣vailing against cold and moist Diseases of those parts, Cholick, Wind in the Sto∣mach, &c.

§ 5. It operates much as Mthridate does, and may be given à ʒss. ad. ʒij. ei∣ther as a Bolus, or dissolved in some proper Vehicle.
