<P>THE fir&s;t of the&s;e, is our Great <HI>Stomach Pill,</HI> who&s;e <HI>Primary intention,</HI> is the Relief and Support of that Noble Part; And this it do's effectually, by carrying off from it, all &s;uch gro&s;s, foul, Putrid Humours, as Clog and Choke the Genuine Ferment of it; Pervert and de&s;troy the Concoctive Faculty; vitiate the whole Ma&s;s of Blood, and Nutricious Juices, and cau&s;e innumerable Di&s;ea&s;es, unea&s;y Life, and untimely Death. Now to prevent and Remedy all the&s;e, this noble <HI>Medecine</HI> is prepared, which caries off &s;uch &s;upervacaneous Mat|ter; Rectifies the Ferment of the <HI>Stomach</HI> and Con|coction, and Rai&s;eth the very Foundation of Di|&s;ea&s;es,
<PB N="2" REF="2">in order to a firm and la&s;ting &s;tate of Health, and is therefore call'd the <HI>Stomach Pill.</HI> Notwith|&s;tanding which; the Vertue of the&s;e <HI>Pills</HI> are not confind to the <HI>Stomach</HI> alone, for, being of fine and &s;ubtile Parts, They in their working through the <HI>Inte&s;tines,</HI> penetrate and open the ob&s;tructions of tho&s;e ob&s;cure pa&s;&s;ages of the <HI>Bowells</HI> &s;ub&s;ervient to the <HI>Stomach,</HI> which are call'd by <HI>Anatomi&s;ts, the fir&s;t Ways,</HI> the Me&s;eraic Veins, and tho&s;e of the Me|&s;entery, <HI>&amp;c.</HI> through which the Chyle and whole Ma&s;s of Nouri&s;hment pa&s;&s;eth, in order to the form|ing the Blood, and nouri&s;hing Juices, upon which the whole <HI>Body</HI> &s;ub&s;i&s;teth; mo&s;t of which are of &s;o fine a fabrick, that they are &s;carce di&s;cernable to the mo&s;t curious Eye, and therefore obnoxious to &s;uch ob&s;tructions or &s;toppings, as cau&s;e a multitude of fatal Di&s;ea&s;es, which would afford Matter for a Volume; &s;hould I under take to write a Hi&s;tory of them, which in truth, derive their original from the <HI>Stomach</HI> and <HI>ways</HI> &s;o vitiated and perverted: For the Remedy and Rectifying of which, this excellent <HI>Pill</HI> is pri|marily adapted or fitted, with the utmo&s;t Indu&s;try and Art that can po&s;&s;ibly be u&s;ed: The operation of the&s;e <HI>Pills</HI> is after this maner, <HI>viz.</HI> If the <HI>Sto|mack</HI> be full and foul, they fir&s;t unload it by a gentle Vomit or two, and then by ea&s;ie and plentiful &s;tools according to the Emergency of the Occa&s;ion: Thence in their pa&s;&s;age they take along with them all gro&s;s matter that doth in any wi&s;e Ob&s;truct or Stop up tho&s;e Exile pa&s;&s;ages afore&s;aid, of the Lacteals, Me&s;entery, Liver, Spleen, <HI>&amp;c.</HI> and leave them open and free for the Current of an untainted Chyle, pure Ma&s;s of Blood and Nouri&s;hing nervous Juice, which produce a firm and &s;ound Con&s;titution, and con&s;equently an Ea&s;ie and Healthy Life: Which as it is the ju&s;t and proper Office of a good Medicine, &s;o, it is of the&s;e Ad|mirable
<PB N="3" REF="2"><HI>Pills.</HI> The u&s;e of them is as followeth. The common Do&s;e to an Ordinary or Midle con&s;titution is <HI>&s;ix Pills,</HI> of which take two at Night going to Bed, and four the next Morning; after the fir&s;t Stool or vo|mit (when they work that way) drink a &s;mall draught of Po&s;&s;et drink or thin Broth, or other warm draught as you have convenience, and the like after every &s;econd or third Stool, eat nothing till noon, and then that which is of ea&s;y dige&s;tion. Strong Bodies may take Three at Night and Four or Five the next Mor|ning: They who are of weaker Bodies may take One at Night and Three or Four the Morning following. Children of eight, ten or twelve years of age may take One at night and Two next day; And you are to ob&s;erve this rule: To begin with a &s;maller do&s;e and increa&s;e the Number, as you find them mo&s;t agre|able to your &s;terength, and keep to That, which an ea&s;ie ob&s;ervation will make familiar. I advi&s;e the fir&s;t u&s;e of the&s;e <HI>Pills</HI> may be for three or four days, then twice a Week, and afterward once in a Week or Ten days, as you find occa&s;ion. Price 1 <HI>s.</HI> the Box.</P>
<P>The next <HI>Medicine</HI> is my <HI>Grand Anti&s;corbutick</HI> call'd <HI>Anima Cochleariae,</HI> or the <HI>Soul of Scurvy Gra&s;s:</HI> Being a <HI>Spirituous water</HI> drawn by <HI>Di&s;tillation</HI> from <HI>Scurvy Gra&s;s;</HI> (whence it hath its Name,) and from other <HI>Hearbs</HI> and <HI>Materials,</HI> which in their Nature are mo&s;t properly Appo&s;ite to the Cure of the <HI>Scur|vy</HI> in all its Degrees and Symytoms. The Prepara|tion of this Medicine is &s;uch, as, that all the In|gredients contain'd in It, are by a <HI>previous Fermentation,</HI> and other nece&s;&s;ary <HI>Proce&s;&s;es</HI> &s;eparated from all their Gro&s;s and Earthy &s;ub&s;tances, and there|by made very Subtile, Searching, Clean&s;ing, Open|ing, Sweeting, and Strengthning. It powerfully A&s;&s;ails and Totally Vanqui&s;heth this Reigning Di|&s;ea&s;e, which Affects more or le&s;s, all Families, if not
<PB N="4" REF="3">Per&s;ons. It entirely &s;ubdues its mo&s;t Violent and Mor|tifying Symptoms, and renders the Whole Man, Ve|gete, Lively, and Active, which was before-Incum|bered with a li&s;tle&s;s Heavine&s;s, flying Pains, Aches, Sorene&s;s, and Univer&s;al indi&s;po&s;ition of Body, &s;ore <HI>Mouth</HI> and <HI>Gums,</HI> loo&s;e <HI>Teeth</HI> and <HI>Spots</HI> in divers Parts, and many other, which are &s;o well known to all People of This and other Northern Nations, that I need not be larger in the De&s;cription of It. The u&s;e hereof is Ea&s;y and Plea&s;ant: Drink an ordinary Wine Gla&s;s of It in the Morning fa&s;ting, u&s;e moderate Exerci&s;e, either Walking, Riding, or following accu&s;tomed bu&s;ine&s;s at home or abroad, or other that may warm the <HI>Blood</HI> in order to a Quick Motion and Coopera|tion with the Medicine: Take another Gla&s;s, about Four or Five of the clock in the Afternoon, or Three or Four hours di&s;tant from Dinner, after the &s;ame Order, and another, an hour or two after a Light Supper, or before Bed time. Purge once a Week with the <HI>Stomach Pills</HI> before mentioned, and I will con|fidently a&s;&s;ure any <HI>Scorbutick Patients,</HI> that by the u&s;e hereof, after this order pre&s;cribed, or a few Weeks, that they &s;hall find them&s;elves wholy &s;teed and deli|ver'd from that Unea&s;y and Trouble&s;ome companion the <HI>Scurvy.</HI> Price 1 <HI>s.</HI> the Bottle of half a pint.</P>
<P>Our third Remedy particularly re&s;pects the <HI>Brea&s;t</HI> and <HI>Lungs,</HI> and is of two Sorts, the One our <HI>Pulmo|niack Lozenge</HI> the Other is our <HI>Alexiterial Bal&s;amick Syrup.</HI> The&s;e in their Re&s;pective Operations doe effectually help all Infirmities of the <HI>Lungs,</HI> and <HI>Brea|thing Organs,</HI> which are <HI>Coughs, Phthy&s;ick, A&s;thma</HI> or <HI>dificult breathing, Whea&s;ing, Inflation</HI> (com|monly call'd <HI>Ri&s;ing</HI> of the <HI>Lights</HI>) as al&s;o Excoria|tion or Sorene&s;s of the <HI>Trachaea Arteria</HI> or <HI>Wine-pipe,</HI> which often proceeds to <HI>Ulceration</HI> and <HI>Con&s;umption,</HI> properly &s;o call'd (for every wa&s;ting of the Body is not
<PB N="5" REF="3">properly call'd a Con&s;umption, but that only which proceeds from the <HI>Lungs,</HI> the other is an <HI>Atrophie,</HI> as being the Effect of other Cau&s;es:) As al&s;o <HI>Orthop|naea,</HI> or Streight Breathing, and <HI>Pertpneumonia,</HI> or Inflamation of the <HI>Lungs,</HI> which is &s;till attended with a <HI>Feaver,</HI> and often a <HI>Pleuri&s;ie,</HI> which generally proves Faral. The&s;e with divers others which come under no denomination, are Di&s;ea&s;es of the <HI>Lungs</HI> and Organs of Re&s;piration, cau&s;ed either by Sharp de|fluctions o<GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="OXF" EXTENT="1 letter"> <HI>Rheum,</HI> or a Salt &s;erous <HI>Catarh</HI> falling upon the <HI>Brea&s;t</HI> as afore&s;aid; or el&s;e Cold, Stiff, Vi&s;|cous Phlegm impacted in the Lobes of the <HI>Lung<GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="OXF" EXTENT="1 letter"></HI> which doe variou&s;ly affect Them, according to the Quantity or Quality of the Matter Offending, and al&s;o accor|ding to the Nature or Condition of the Parts Recei|ving and Containing &s;uch pre&s;ent Matter fallen up|on Them; which being Graduated and Exa&s;pera|ted, by neglect of timely Remedies, cau&s;e a Weak and Languid <HI>Body,</HI> and generally a fatal Conclu&s;ion.</P>
<P>Now for a &s;ea&s;onable Remedy, for The&s;e and all o|ther dire affects of the <HI>Brea&s;t</HI> and <HI>Lungs;</HI> You have the&s;e Excellent Medicines, properly Adapted, and faith|fully Prepared, and always at Hand to give Relief in time of need, which are to be u&s;ed as followeth.</P>
<P>The <HI>Lozenges</HI> are your Companion in the day, of which take about the weight of a large Shilling or more, in the Morning fa&s;ting, the like at 3 or 4 of the clock in the Afternoon, and la&s;t at Night: The&s;e are times to be certainly Ob&s;erved, at other times, as your Condition requires it; let them di&s;&s;olve in your <HI>Mouth,</HI> and &s;wallow them by degrees, and the Effect will an&s;wer your de&s;ire. The <HI>Bal&s;amick Syr|rup,</HI> is your Guard in the Night when your Sleep (the great Refre&s;hment of Nature) hath been inter|rupted by <HI>Coughing, Ratling,</HI> or otherwi&s;e troubled; This takes off the <HI>&s;harp de&s;tillation, &s;weetens</HI> the <HI>Hu|mours,
<PB N="6" REF="4">opens</HI> the <HI>Stopping,</HI> and gives you a Comforta|ble Repo&s;e, which mightily conduceth to your Re|covery. The&s;e Excellent <HI>Medicines</HI> thus u&s;ed, will infallibly give Relief, and fully an&s;wer the Ends to which they are de&s;ign'd, abating tho&s;e violent Sym|ptoms, and &s;oon repair the decayes which Nature hath &s;uffered, and &s;trength will en&s;ue to your abun|dant &s;atisfaction. Take two Spoonfuls at night going to Bed, in a &s;mall draught of burn'd Wine, Mace Ale, or Po&s;&s;et Drink. Young Children may take half a Spoonful, tho&s;e of more years, <HI>viz.</HI> about 10 or 12, a whole one or more as you &s;ee occa&s;ion.</P>
<P>Note: That this Exellent <HI>Alexiterial Syrup</HI> is yet endued with more Vertues then are hither to mentioned, for be&s;ide it's &s;ingular operation upon the <HI>Brea&s;t</HI> and <HI>Lungs;</HI> It hath it's <HI>Alexiterial</HI> Vertues in a high degree. It takes off the Violent Symptoms of the <HI>Small Pox,</HI> and <HI>Meazles,</HI> and being given before, or upon their coming out. It hugely a&s;&s;i&s;ts Nature in this work, and makes them come out kindly. So al&s;o in all &s;orts of <HI>Feavers</HI> it is of Admirable u&s;e, throwing off the Malignity and Fury thereof, keeps off a <HI>Delirium,</HI> or <HI>Altenation</HI> of <HI>Mind,</HI> cau&s;eth moderate &s;weat abates thir&s;t, and carries off by the Ea&s;ie&s;t operation i<GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="OXF" EXTENT="1+ letters">ginable, the whole Febrile Matter, and brings the <HI>Body</HI> to <GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="OXF" EXTENT="1 word"> Pri&s;tine Temper. It al&s;o is a certain Cure for <HI>A<GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="OXF" EXTENT="1 letter">ues</HI> taken according to direction, which in Acute Di&s;ea&s;es &s;hall be particularly given to &s;uch as &s;hall make u&s;e of this Excellent Medicine.</P>
<P>Furthermore, It is a pre&s;ent Remedy in the <HI>Griping of the Gutts,</HI> whether with, or without a <HI>Flux,</HI> as al&s;o in the mo&s;t &s;evere fitts of the <HI>Cholick,</HI> in the&s;e two you may depend upon this &s;ingle Medicine for a certain Cure, never failing: Take it thus, Fir&s;t, take a Cly&s;ter, of a Pint of Po&s;&s;et drink, wherin a handful of <HI>Mallows</HI> and as much <HI>Camomile</HI> flowrs have been boyled and &s;train'd, to which put a quarter of a Pound of cour&s;e Sugar, when it hath wrought, take two or three Spoonfuls of this <HI>Alexiterial Bal&s;amick Syrop,</HI> in a &s;mall draught of clear <HI>Po&s;&s;et</HI> Drink go to Bed and lie &s;till in a gentle breathing Sweat (if it offers it &s;elf,) and you will &s;oon find Ea&s;e, and &s;oon after Cure; which, if it be not fini&s;hed at the fir&s;t do&s;e (as it &s;eldom or never mi&s;&s;eth) take it again about
<PB N="7" REF="4">&s;ix or eight hours after, and it will &s;urely perfect it: The Price of the <HI>Lozenges</HI> is, a &s;hilling the Paper of two ounces. The <HI>Ale|xiterial Bal&s;amick Syrup,</HI> two &s;hillings the Gla&s;s of four ounces.</P>
<P>Our fourth <HI>Medicine,</HI> is the <HI>Tincture of Mars,</HI> or <HI>Steel,</HI> a <HI>Medicine</HI> indeed! which never till now made its Publique entry; Though in my private Practi&s;e I have, in the tract of many Years; had &s;uch high proofs, and demon&s;trations of its Ver|tues, that I never mett with or heard of, any that exceeded it. It doth Wonders in <HI>Di&s;ea&s;es</HI> of <HI>Melancholy,</HI> and <HI>Hypochondriack Pa&s;&s;ions,</HI> tho to the degree of <HI>Madne&s;s.</HI> It gives a certain Cure in <HI>Convul&s;ions, Fitts of the Mother, Spleen,</HI> and all <HI>Flatuo&s;i|ties,</HI> or <HI>Windine&s;s,</HI> it is a Soveraign Remedy, and takes away the Original Cau&s;e of the&s;e <HI>Di&s;tempers.</HI> In all Female Sickne&s;&s;es It hath &s;carce its Equal, for it opens all <HI>Ob&s;tructions</HI> of the <HI>Womb,</HI> and <HI>Hypoga&s;trick Ve&s;&s;els,</HI> and both in Women and Vir|gins, it works &s;uch E&s;&s;ects, as where Nature is either too libe|ral, or too frugal in its benefits to the tender Sex, it reduceth tho&s;e Extreams to Moderation; after a &s;ingular maner: The u&s;e hereof is thus.</P>
<P>After three or four times Purging with our great <HI>Stomach Pill,</HI> and Bleeding where it is requi&s;ite, take fifteen or twenty Drops of our <HI>Tincture of Mars,</HI> afore&s;aid, in a Gla&s;s of White or Rhe|ni&s;h Wine in a Morning fa&s;ting, they who cannor afford them|&s;elves Wine, may take it in Beer, Ale, or other &s;uch Liquor that may be had, that is not too thin and &s;mall, u&s;e Exerci&s;e after it, Then about four or five, after Noon, repeat the &s;ame quantity, as in the Morning, u&s;e moderate Exerci&s;e, and take it again an hour or two before you go to Bed. Purge once a Week with our <HI>Pills,</HI> and by continuance of this Cour&s;e for a few Weeks, you will find &s;uch Effects as &s;hall an&s;wer your utmo&s;t de&s;ires.</P>
<P>The&s;e <HI>Medicines</HI> are but few (four in all) But; their Ver|tues are &s;o large and exten&s;ive, that they take in the whole &s;eries of Di&s;ea&s;es (generally &s;peaking) that infe&s;t Mankind, an&s;wering in all re&s;pects the whole De&s;ign of <HI>Medicine.</HI> And indeed, the whole Method of Practi&s;e u&s;ed among the Phy&s;i|cians at this day, is comprehended within this narrow Circuit; Whil'&s;t that numerous and pompous Train of <HI>Waters, Electua|ries, Apozems, Potions, Pills, Powders, Species, Extracts, In|fu&s;ions, Decoctions, Elixyrs, Tincture,</HI> and Legions of others, have &s;till but a tendency to the &s;aid end, and are at be&s;t but (according to the u&s;ual Cant) &s;uccedaneous, or rather cir|cum&s;tantial in re&s;pect of the&s;e, or of this kind; and I may ju&s;tly &s;ay Nau&s;eous and Incongruous.</P>
<PB N="8" REF="5">
<P>Wherefore, in order to the regular u&s;e, and application of the&s;e <HI>Medicines</HI> I &s;hall only add this Precaution.</P>
<P>That all Di&s;ea&s;es are of the&s;e two kinds; <HI>Chronical</HI> and <HI>Acute</HI>; <HI>Chronical,</HI> are tho&s;e of long growth, and long duration, or continuance, &s;uch as have their foundation &s;ecretly laid by a foregoing intemperate, or inconvenient way of living, and by &s;low degrees come to their &s;tate, and continue for Months and Years to annoy and de&s;troy the Body. <HI>Acute Di&s;ea&s;es</HI> are &s;uch as are of &s;udain Ri&s;e, and &s;oon determined, either in Life or Death, and tho&s;e are continual <HI>Feavers Malignant</HI> or <HI>Pe&s;tilen|tial, Small-Pox, Meazles, &amp;c.</HI> Now, the&s;e later (<HI>Acute Di|&s;ea&s;es</HI>) will require more particular Advi&s;e and Direction, (which I am alway ready to give,) in the menagement and conduct of their cure, and application of the&s;e <HI>Medieines,</HI> in order thereunto, which are of &s;ufficient Vertue and Power to performe it. The former, I mean tho&s;e <HI>Chronical Di&s;ea&s;es</HI> are immediatly in the Power of the Parient, by the due and timely application of the afore&s;aid <HI>Medicines,</HI> according to the Rules and Orders here pre&s;cribed; To which I be&s;eech God to give his Ble&s;&s;ing, I have only this one thing to add by way of,</P>
<P><LABEL>Adverti&s;ement.</LABEL></P>
<P>That in the <HI>Venereal Di&s;ea&s;e,</HI> in all the Branches and Degrees, from the fir&s;t beginings thereof (commonly known by the name of a <HI>Clap</HI>) to the highe&s;t &amp; mo&s;t Malignant Symptoms when grown to a confirmed and inveterate <HI>Pox.</HI> The&s;e my <HI>Stomach Pills,</HI> together with a <HI>Diet Drink</HI> which I make for this u&s;e, are Prepared fully and entirely to Effect and ab&s;olve the whole Cure. Though perhaps &s;ome external applications may be u&s;eful in Ca&s;e of In<GAP DESC="illegible" RESP="OXF" EXTENT="1 letter">ererate <HI>Ulcers,</HI> which mu&s;t be pre&s;ently cheked where a Part is in danger to be lo&s;t, or &s;poiled, before the Di&s;ea&s;e can be Radicaly exterminated. And the&s;e are &s;till at hand to be had as occa&s;ion requires.</P>
<P>And if any &s;hall de&s;ire to have their Names or Per&s;ons con|ceal'd, they may (upon giving an account of their Ca&s;e in Writing, have them &s;ent with that de&s;ired &s;ecrecy.</P>
<P>The&s;e things (Reader) which are here Candidly offered to your Help and Succour in all the Accidents and Emergencies of Sickne&s;s, &s;hall be with all Faithfulne&s;s and Integrity performed at my abode, at the &s;econd Hou&s;e on the right hand in <HI>Bolt</HI> and <HI>Tun</HI> Court in <HI>Fleet-&s;treet.</HI></P>
