     summary: 2 To make a Glister glutinous . REc : three pints of water , quench steel in it , untill one third part be wasted then boile in it Cumfery roots , Knotgrasse , Bryer leaves , red Rose leaves , and Plantain leaves , of each a little handfull of Acatia , hypocischidis , ana . ℈ij. waters of Buglosse and Scabius as much as is sufficient to make it into an Electuary , give to the sick the quantity of a dram , and lay him in a warme bed , and cover him with clothes that he may sweat four hours , then let him be cooled gentlely by taking off the clothes one after another ; this being done , use the same the second day , and by Gods blessing it may drive the venome from the heart , unto the extreame parts , which I wil direct for the cure thereof hereafter : you may also take Electuarium de ovo the quantity of a dram or a scruple , according to the strength of the party , it is commended above all by some Physitians ; but Bolarmonick , or Terra lemnia , I have proved them the quantity of a nut given in posset-drink or in surrup of Gilloflowers , and 3 grains of Saffron powder , this will drive out the venome into Botches like Carbunckles when other Medicines be wanting , so the party hath recovered , it is also good to drive out the Measels and the Pox , remember in the time of sweating , you must not let the party sleep , nor in six houres after ; you may give him Julips , made with waters of Scabius , Sorrel , Endive and Succory , surrup of Gilloflowers , of Wood sorrel , Lemons , Violets , and such like , for his meate , you may boile a Chick , with Sorrel , the juice of Lemons , and Burrage-flowers , or Marigold-flowers are very good ; also you may dissolve a little Saffron in his Vineger to dip his meat in it , but let the Saffron be very finely poudered , or tyed in a linnen cloth ( as Saffron is a Cordinal , so if much be taken it hurteth ) Many other cordial things may be used , wood of Aloes and n grated into his beere is commended .
