_A very good Medicine for the Stone_.
Make a Posset of a quart of _Rhenish_ wine, a pint of _Ale_ and a
pint of _Milke_, then take away the curd, and put into the drink,
two handfulls of Sorrell, one handfull of _Burnet_, and halfe a handfull
of _Balm_, boyle them together a good while, but not too long,
least the drink be too unpleasant, then take of the drink a quarter
of a pint, or rather halfe a pint, at once, at morning, and to bed-ward,
putting therein first two or three spoonfulls of juice of _Lemmons_,
this is an excellent Medicine for the _Stone in the Kidneyes_, to
dissolve and bring it away. It is very good in these Diseases of the
_Stone_, to use _Burnet_ often in your drink at Meales, and often to
steep it in over night, and in the morning put in three or foure
spoonfulls of juice of _Lemmons_, and to drink thereof a good
draught every morning a week together, about the full of the
Moone, three dayes before, and three dayes after.
_To roste a Shoulder of Mutton with Lemmons_.
Take a Shoulder of _Mutton_ halfe rosted, cut off most of the meat
thereof, in thin slices, into a faire dish with the gravy thereof, put
thereto about the quantity of a pint of clarret wine, with a spoonfull
or two at most of the best wine _Vineger_, season it with _Nutmeggs_,
and a little _Ginger_, then pare off the rines of one or two
good _Lemmons_, and slice them thin into the _Mutton_, when it is almost
well stewed between two dishes, and so let them stew together
two or three warmes, when they are enough, put them in a clean
dish, and take the shoulder blade being well broyled on a
grid-iron, and lay it upon your meat, garnishing your dishes
with some slices and rinds of the _Lemmons_, and so serve it.
