_An approved good drink for the Pestilence_.
Take six spoonfuls of _Draggon_-water, two good spoonfulls of
_Wine-Vineger_, two penny weights of English _Saffron_, and as much
Treacle of _Gene_, as a little _Walnut_, dissolve all these together upon
the fire, and let the Patient drink it blood-warm, within twenty
hours or sooner that he is sick, and let him neither eat nor drink
six howres after, but lye so warme in his bed, that he may sweat,
this expelleth the Disease from the heart, and if he be disposed to
a sore, it will streightwayes appeare, which you shall draw out
with a Plaister of _Flos Unguentorum_.
_For the Rheume in the gums or teeth_.
Boyle _Rosemary_ in faire water, with some ten or twelve _Cloves_,

water left, and mingle with it, and make it boyle but a little againe,
then strayne it into some glasse, and wash the mouth there
with morning and evening; this will take away the Rheume in
short time; and if you boyle a little _Mastick_.
