I used against this disease the sweet oyle of Vitriol, per se without any other addition, very successefully. For the Dropsie I used the rectifyed essence of Hellebore.
Against Consumption, a dissolutum of Pearles of the Indian oysters.
Against the Stone I used the atereall juice of Crystals.
Against barrennesse, the red extract of Sa∣tyrium of Erithonzum.
Against the venereall disease, the sweet oile of Mercury. Against the Gout, Phaedro did use that excellent and noble Corallois, that is, the Chymicall Hermaphrodite, and took it three times inwardly, and caused himselfe to be annointed with the rectifyed Spirit of Tartar, and made it penetrate: In a fortnights space he was healed. He was then also troubled with a great swelling in his legs, accompianed with a fervent rednesse. Against Cancer he used butter of Saturne, Against the Cramp and great Convulsions. He cured one, who was tormented with a running paine of his members, with a pur∣ple colour'd tumour joyned, running from one place into another, he used no other me∣dicament, then twice the sanguin essence of Antimony. The Patient was recovered the fifth day.
