OLBION; Or, The Cordial Antidote,

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Hippocrates.

IS a Noble and Generous Medicine, confirmed by the Experience of above Twenty Years pri∣vate Practice, and now publish'd at the Request of several Persons for a general Good, that every one may be his own Physician at an Easie and Cheap Rate, in the beginning of those Diseases which many times neglected, or otherwise preposterously treated by Ignorance or Avarice, often terminate in Death.

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉— 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Pindar. Pyth. Od. 3.

This ANTIDOTE is an admirable Preservative against all Contagious, Pestilential and Epidemick Diseases; expells all manner of Poysons, and purifies and sweetens the whole Mass of Blood; wasts, consumes and drives out, by Sweat and Urine, the corrupt and vicious Humours of the Body, and disposes Running Sores and Ulcers, as well Internal as External, to heal and cure; and suffers no offensive Humours to remain in the Body, no, though they lie in the very Bones; and is very good for driving out the Small-pox, Measles, and the like malignant and putrid Diseases.

It cures all Colds and Pains in the Head, Coughs, Rheums and Hoarseness, and wonderfully strengthens and relieves the Breast and Lungs oppress'd with Astma's, Phthisicks, Pleurisies, &c. prevents and restores People falling into Consumptions, and helps to admiration those that linger under long and wasting Diseases; cheers the Heart, and resists the Passions thereof, Palpitations, Fainting, Swoonings, Sadness, Melancholy; corroborates the Stomach, encreaseth Appetite, promotes Di∣gestion, and is of singular Virtue in all Surfeits, Crudities and Indigestion of the Stomach and Bowels; kills Worms in Children, and destroys the morbifick matter from whence they are bred; cures Loose∣ness, and Griping Fluxes of the Belly, whether Bloody or other: and therefore most necessary for all Sea-faring Men.

It comforts and strengthens the Viscera, Liver and Spleen, and opens all Obstructions thereof; and both prevents and cures all Cachexia's or evil habits of the Body, as the Scurvy, with all its Symp∣toms, the Dropsie and Jaundice; and has a most incomparable Specifick quality for the Cure of Agues, and intermitting Fevers of all sorts, (viz.) Quotidian, Tertian, Quartan, if prudently and seasonably made use of.

This Noble ANTIDOTE easeth all Pains and Weariness in the Body and Limbs, which are the frequent fore-runners of approaching Sickness; and by its innate propriety asswages the violent Pains in the Gout, (〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Anth. lib. 3. chap. 13.) and both prevents and hinders the frequent return of the Fits, and by corroborating and strengthning the Nerves and Tone of the Stomach and Bowels, expels it thence, and defends them from its Assaults.

In the Female Sex it wonderfully repels Vapours, strangling and suffocating Fits of the Mother; prevents Abortion and Miscarriage in Women, occasion'd from windy, cold and moist Humours; and may advantageously and safely be taken by Women with Child after Vomitings, in their Fainting-Fits, and Stomach-Qualms.

Lastly, In all Diseases arising from cold, (〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Anth.) moist or putrid Hu∣mours in the Bodies of Men, Women and Children, there is not a more Noble Medicine to be found; and is more safe, and by far exceeds the ancient Compositions of Mithridate and Venice-Treacle, those grand Medicines of the Apothecaries, which no one of them ever did or could make True:

〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. Phocyl.

One small Box of this ANTIDOTE being worth a Pound of any of those Farraginous Medicines if they were made True; and deserves to be treasured up by all Families, in the room of those adulterate and vicious Compositions which the Company of Apothecaries are now going to Pre∣pare at their Common-Hall, to the Scandal of their Fraternity, and the future Ruine of the Society.
