SECT. XIX. A most precious Unguent for any Burning.
DIvers Men in the Practice of Fire-Works one time or other chance to be burned, or blown in the Face by Powder; here you have Mr. Malthus's Salves, which is known by often Experience to be very good, and will fully cure you.
The SALVES.
Take fresh Hogs-Grease, or Lard, as much as you please, and boyl, and take off the Scum, until there arise no more Scum; then set the Lard three or four nights abroad, after which it must be washed in running Water to take away the Saltish nature, and to make it White; then melt it, and keep it for your use.
Otherwise,
The White of an Egg, and fresh Butter being mingled together, and well beaten into an Oyntment, is excellent good.
