Make ali Boii over aciear Fire, intfPints ofWarer, which oughtto be boil’d to one half; atthe end of the Decoction, as you take it off the Fire, add to it two Dracbmsof Cinamon, and as much Powder of Liquorice.

If ali these things cannot be had, use a Decoction of Dandelton in SmttitWater, with a little Cinamon .

Make ali Boii in a Decoction ol Barley,strain it, and mix with it the Yolk of a frestiEgg, anti aOunces of Honeyof Rostes. If the Pains be very violent, one may add two Heads of WhiteToppy. But Care must be taken not to mistake the Pains of the Guts forrhoilhe Pains of the Fundament, which may be opened by the HamorrhcJs ;

to appease these Pains one may use Jumper Oyl, drawn by a Retort in anopen Fire, from which the Spirit is separated by the Tunnel. If the Ha-morrbotds be Outward, you must rub them with this Oyl with a Feather, eve-ry 4 tb. Hour ; or if they be Internal, one must Syringe them with a quarterof a Spoonfull of this Oyl, the Pain will cease in lefs than x Hours, and theHamorrhoids will wither away, without having need of applying anj otherMedicine. This was communicated to me by M. Gastelier , one of the bestArtists of his time and employ’d by M. Colbert for his Surgeon.
