5 Quinta Eſſentia vitæ.
This reviveth the vitall ſpirits, and hath an admirable vertue in fortifying the heart againſt all infectious, & venemous vapours; ſo that it is good for thoſe that have occaſiõ to viſit ſick people. If ten or twelve drops thereof be taken in a mornings draught it preſerveth the body from infection, and if twenty or thirty drops of it bee given to the ſicke of the Peſtilence, within the ſpace of ſixe houres after they are infected, they ſhall be cured in one hour, as I have often proved: it driveth out the ſmall Pox, and cureth the ſick without ſweating.
6 Iulapium Reſtaurativum.
By the vertue this Medicine hath in reſiſting the putrifaction of humours, it doth cure all ſorts of Fevers and Agues, it may be given in any time of the diſeaſe, but eſpecially in the latter end of the [16] ]ſickneſſe, when no other Medicine can be adminiſtred without danger. With it I have cured the Hectick Fever, and thoſe that have faln into the Relapſe of the ſmall Pox, and ſuch as have been nigh unto death, by reaſon of violent Fevers.
Any of the aforeſaid Medicines, the Author adminiſtreth both outwardly and inwardly in many ſeverall wayes and manners, according to the age, temperature, complexion, and diſpoſition, of the bodie; and according to the nature, degrees, and time of the diſeaſe.
Artis Apollineæ vis ſola eſt numen Olympi,
Quo ſine languenti Pharmaca fruſtra dabis.
If that our art from God receive not ſtrength,
In vain we ſeek mans life for to prolength.
FINIS.
