XI. * Balsamum Sulphuris Suc∣cinatum, Balsam of Sulphur with Amber.

Bate.] It is made of the Flowers of Sulphur with Oyl of Amber, in all respects as you make the Anisated Balsam. It prevails against the Colick, &c.

Salmon.] § 1. The Vulgar Chymist has another way of making this Balsam, besides the common way of the Te∣rebinthinated, or Anisated Balsam, and it is thus: ℞ Of the thick Terebinthinated Bal∣sam of Sulphur (the Prepara∣tion of which see in Sect. 12. next following) ℥j. Pure Oyl of Amberij. mix them well together, by shaking them in a Vial, then put them into B. M. and gently boyl them, so will the Oyl dissolve the Balsams, enter into it, and mix with it, and this is Balsamum Sul∣phuris Succinatum.

§ 2. Other Authors advise not to boyl the Terebinthi∣nated Balsam, and the Oyl of Amber together, but only to digest them together in a boyl∣ing B. M. till the Balsam is dissolved in the Oyl: but by this way it will be thinner, and want of the true Consistency of the Balsam of Sulphur.

§ 3. It is a good Vulne∣rary; both inwardly taken, and outwardly applied heals Ulcers of the Lungs; it heats, attenuates, incides, dries, re∣solves thick Flegm both in Stomach and Lungs, is of good use against the Jaundice, Coughs, Colds, and Shortness of Breath, allays Vapors, and helps Hysterick Fits; and in a word, it is good against most Diseases of the Brest, Lungs, and Womb. It also kills Worms, and strengthens the Bowels. Dose à gut. iv. ad xx. mixt with some pro∣per Syrup.
