<HEAD>The Virtues and Happy Effects of <HI>BATEMANs</HI> Famo<GAP DESC="illegible" EXTENT="2 letters"> <HI>SPIRITS</HI> of <HI>SCURVY-GRASS,</HI> both <HI>Plain</HI> and <HI>Golden,</HI> and particular <HI>CURES</HI> thereby performed.</HEAD>
<P>THere is no doubt but Providence de&s;ign'd that Excellent Medicinal Herb by us (from its Virtues) call'd <HI>SCURVY-GRASS,</HI> for a <HI>Specifick</HI> or peculiar and adequate Remedy again&s;t a cruel, and almo&s;t univer&s;al Di&s;ea&s;e, the <HI>Scurvy,</HI> and &s;everal other Di&s;tempers in|fe&s;ting the Inhabitants of the&s;e <HI>Northern</HI> Parts. But both Rea&s;on and Experience have caught, That the <HI>common way</HI> of infu&s;ing the <HI>crude Herb,</HI> and letting it lye to rot in Liqours, or taking the gro&s;s <HI>pounded Juice</HI> with all its <HI>Impurities,</HI> as in the vulgar <HI>Scurvy-gra&s;s-Ale</HI> and <HI>Beer,</HI> is (by rea&s;on of the <HI>Earthy</HI> and <HI>Phlegmatick</HI> parts thereby received into the Body) both <HI>nav&s;eous</HI> and <HI>prejudicial,</HI> In&s;tead of being helpful to Nature. To prevent which inconveniencies the&s;e <HI>Noble Spirits</HI> were invent|ed, where all the gro&s;s <HI>dreggy</HI> parts being &s;eperated and ca&s;t off, nothing remains but the pure <HI>e&s;&s;ential Virtues</HI> of this gallant <HI>Vegetable;</HI> thereby becoming of far greater <HI>Efficacy</HI> to a&s;&s;i&s;t Nature, and meet with, &s;ubdue and expel the lurking <HI>Morbifick-matter,</HI> which occa&s;ions tho&s;e <HI>Di&s;ea&s;es.</HI> This is now &s;o notorious, that few People but &s;uch as are &s;tupidly ignorant, or unrea&s;onably wilful, do any longer make u&s;e of the common <HI>Scurvy-Ale,</HI> but apply them&s;elves to the&s;e more generous <HI>Spirits,</HI> which have given &s;uch eminent and &s;ingular proofs of their &s;ucce&s;s.</P>
<P><HI>The Plain Spirit.</HI></P>
<P>Is Excellent to be taken frequently by way of <HI>Prevention,</HI> or where the <HI>Scorbutick</HI> Humour is not yet grown too &s;trong and inveterate. It gives any Liquor a plea&s;ing Ta&s;te, cheers the Spirits, warms and comforts the <HI>Stomach,</HI> and thereby creates a good <HI>Appetite,</HI> and helps <HI>Dige&s;tion:</HI> 'Tis a rare Re|medy to &s;weeten and cure an offen&s;ive <HI>Breath:</HI> It prevents <HI>Worms</HI> in Children; it cuts, attenuates, and di&s;&s;olves <HI>Phlegm</HI> and <HI>Crudities,</HI> contracted by large Suppers, or over-drinking, and helps tho&s;e that are troubled with <HI>Wind, Vapours,</HI> and <HI>&s;ower Belchings:</HI> It cuts off and di&s;per&s;es the Cau&s;es of <HI>Scurvy, Drop&s;ies,</HI> and many other Di&s;ea&s;es in the bud, and is a grand pre&s;erver of <HI>Health,</HI> if often u&s;ed. Many People never drink their Mornings draught without it, and find great benefit: You may take thirty or forty drops in half a pint of <HI>Beer, Ale, Cider,</HI> or other Liquor, at any time, an hour or more before or after <HI>Meals;</HI> but the Morning is the mo&s;t proper Sea&s;on.</P>
<DIV2 TYPE="part">
<HEAD>The Golden Spirit.</HEAD>
<P>Is u&s;ed when the <HI>Scurvey</HI> is radicated and become dangerous, and where <HI>Purging</HI> is nece&s;&s;ary; to which purpo&s;e it is impregnated with <HI>choice Ingredients,</HI> mo&s;t <HI>friendly to Nature.</HI> 'Tis al&s;o an excel|lent and Sovereign Medicine in the <HI>Drop&s;y, Gout, Stone,</HI> and <HI>Gravel, Melancholly, Green-&s;ickne&s;s,</HI> and &s;everal other Di&s;ea&s;es, as in the particular <HI>Directions</HI> for its U&s;e, is truly and more at large &s;et forth.</P>

<HEAD>Several Remarkable Cures which have been wrought by the&s;e <HI>Spirits.</HI></HEAD>
<P><HI>Jacob Wi&s;e</HI> of <HI>Rum&s;ey</HI> in <HI>Hamp&s;hire,</HI> had a dreadful Breaking out in Pimples over all his Bo|dy, which being &s;cratched, a Watery honour would i&s;&s;ue forth; and a wet Cloath clapt to his Stomach in Winter would reak as if it had been dipt in the a boyling Kertls; yet before he had taken one Gla&s;s of this Spirit, his Fle&s;h became like the Fle&s;h of a young Child.</P>

<P><HI>Edward Leve&s;edge</HI> of <HI>Kilmington</HI> in <HI>Somer&s;et&s;hire,</HI> who being afflicted with a long continued <HI>Scurvy,</HI> and a drop&s;ical Humour, whereby Nature was &s;o weakned, and his Legs and Arms &s;well'd to &s;uch a prodigious Bigne&s;s, that he was not able to &s;tand or go; yet by taking but four Bottles of this <HI>Spirit,</HI> he was perfectly cured.</P>

About the latter end of <HI>January</HI> la&s;t, took one Bottle of the <HI>Purging Spirit,</HI> and in &s;ix days time his Swelling left him, his Strength, and Stomack, and Vigour, were wonderfully re&s;tored; and now enjoys that mea&s;ure and degree of Health, as before; for which he de&s;ires to give God the Glory, and put

<P>Many other Remarkable Cures I could recite, would this Paper contain them; and might &s;how, that they are in great E&s;teem with very able Phy&s;icians, as the Learned Dr. <HI>Dyke</HI> near <HI>Taunton,</HI> who de&s;ired his Name may be made u&s;e of as highly approving of them, and like|wi&s;e &s;everal other great Phy&s;icians.</P>
