<DIV2 TYPE="part">
<HEAD>Directions how to take this Excellent Lozenge.</HEAD>
<P>YOu mu&s;t take the quantity of a &s;mall Ha&s;el Nut when you go to Bed, or in the Morning, or when you Cough, or any other time of the day as you plea&s;e, &s;o as you may take a quarter of a Pound in five or &s;ix days, letting it di&s;&s;olve in your mouth.</P>
<P>The Cures are Con&s;umptions, Pti&s;&s;icks, Catarrhs, Impo&s;tumes, all &s;orts of Colds, Hoar&s;ene&s;s, Short|ne&s;s of Breath, and Stuffing of the Stomach, or any other Di&s;ea&s;e incident to the Head, Stomach, and Lungs; and doth clean&s;e, heal, and pre&s;erve the Lungs; it drieth up a &s;alt Rheum that doth di&s;til from the Head to the Lungs, by which Rheum the Lungs are wa&s;ted, which this <HI>Lozenge</HI> by Gods help doth prevent, by drawing the Rheum into a body, and &s;o you may &s;pit it up: By this means the Lungs are pre&s;erved, and the Stomach &s;trengthened, and expelleth Winde out of the Stomach: This hath Cu|red many that have been very much &s;pent in a Con&s;umption when they have been young, and hath pre&s;erved them in very good health to old Age. You mu&s;t keep the <HI>Lozenges</HI> dry.</P>
<P>The&s;e <HI>Lozenges,</HI> as well for the accommodation of the poorer &s;ort of people, as for the Gentry, are to be &s;old as well in Papers of Twelve pence a piece, as al&s;o in Papers of Two &s;hillings &s;ix pence a piece, proportionably at the Rate of Ten &s;hillings in the Pound, and are &s;ealed up with his own Coat of Arms.</P>

<HEAD>The Vertue of the Pills.</HEAD>
<P>It purgeth the Liver, the Spleen, and the Reins, and clean&s;eth the Veins and Kidneys from Gravel; it doth immediately expel the Spleen, Winde out of the Side, and it is good for any pain in the Bones, Sinews, Joynts, or Nerves, and to prevent the Scurvey from &s;etling in the Mu&s;cles which is upon the Joynts; it al&s;o &s;trengthens the Womb, and pre&s;erves the Childe in the Mothers Womb.</P>
</DIV2>
