The Royal Plaster for Ruptures.

℞. Ship-pitch one pound, yellow Wax, clear Turpentine, of each four ounces; dry roots of the greater Comfrey, Mastick, of each two ounces; Labdanum an ounce and a half, under-growth of Cystus, seal'd Earth, of each half an ounce, Cypress Nuts N^o. 20; make them into a Plaster according to art.

This Plaster was held a secret by the Prior of Cabrieres until the King of France purchas'd it and other Remedies which that Clergyman us'd with great success in the cure of Ruptures. It is not as Com∣pound as other Plasters ad herniam are, but yields to none in strengthening the relax'd parts, not without a Truss.
