§ 2. This is the simple Tincture, but there is a Com∣pound made according to Le Mort, after this manner: ℞ Balsam Copaybae ℥ij. Gum Guajaci ℥ss. Oil of Sassafras ʒj. Alcohol of S. V. ℥x. mix, and digest together, with the addi∣tion of a little Salt of Tartar, for 24 hours, so will you have an excellent Tincture.

§ 3. In this latter Prepa∣ration the Oil of Sassafras is added not so much for its Vertues sake, as to strengthen and fortifie the Menstruum, that thereby it may the more powerfully open the body of the Gums, and readily ex∣tract their Tincture, which without this addition would not so easily be done.

§ 4. This Tincture, whe∣ther Simple or Compound, is a notable Antivenereal, and a Specifick in the curing of the Gonorrhea, for which it is highly profitable, as also in the cure of the French Pox itself.

§ 5. It provokes Sweat powerfully, and prevails a∣gainst all Diseases which are to be cured by sweating: You may give either of them à gut xij. ad ʒj. or ʒiss. in any convenient Liquor antivene∣rial; as for example, in a Decoction of Guajacum a∣gainst the French Pox.
