CHAP. XVIII. Pillole Aquilone of our invention.

THese Pills are above all other in operation, as the Eagle is above all other Birds, and therefore I thought good to call them Pillole Aquilone, and the order to make them is thus.

Take conserve of Damask Roses made with Hony ℥ iii. Lig∣num Aloes ʒ. i. Oyl of Vitriol twelve graines, Cinnamon elect ii scruples. Petra philosophalis of our invention. ℥ ss. Sugar-can∣die ℥ ii. Mix them, and make thereof a paste with Syrupo Acetoso and keep them in a glass. The Vertue of these Pills I will not at this time write: but onely I say they help against all sorts of in∣firmities, and hurteth none in any wise. The Dose is from ʒ. i. to ʒ. ii. in the morning fasting, but ye may not gild them in a∣ny wise, but drink after them a cup of water or wine, to carrie them down, then sleep thereon, and that day eat little meat, and light of digestion.
