Oyl of Rosemary-flowers; how to make it, with its Virtual
Operation.
Take a good quantity of Rosemary-flow∣ers stamp them and
put them into a Glass with strong Wine: stop the Glass close, and
set it in the Sun six days, then distill the Flow∣ers and Wine with a
soft fire, and the effect will produce both Water and Oyl; separate them,
and keep the Oyl close in a Glass.
This Oyl is good against the inveterate Head∣ach, it
comforteth the Memory, and perserveth the sight, by being drunk in a
Glass of Wine, or dropped into the Eyes: being dropped into the Ears, it
helpeth Deafness, and is good in case of the Dropsie, yellow Jaundice,
Rising of the Mother, &c.
