An Electuary of Garlick.

℞. Eight cloves of Garlick, to which fried and mash'd with Honey add four scruples of Castor, Sperma Ceti, Juniper-berries, and dry'd leaves of Pellitory of the Wall, of each two scruples, Mithridate five drachms, Oxymel of Squills boil'd to the consistence of an Opiate four ounces; make them into an Electuary according to art.

It is proper in Nephritick and Wind Cholicks, in running and fixt Gouts, in Asthma's, Dropsies, and most sorts of Cachexies; for it cuts and attenuates tough roapy Humours, that obstruct both the Conglobate and Conglomerate Glands, and so hinder the due Secretion of the useful, and the discharge of Excre∣mentitious Humours. It is us'd in time of Pestilence. The Dose from a scruple to a drachm.
