READY DOCTOR. 25 For Bites of Serpents.

TAKE any of my Cures for a mad Dog's bite: But be ſure to eat at leaſt 1 lib. of Junniper Berries, in three days, taking many or few at once, as you pleaſe. Indeed Junnipers are ſuſſicient of themſelves, by eating them inwardly, and applying their ſubſtance outwardly.

Probatum eſt.

For Pain in the Back.

DRINK the Broth of an old Cock: Meantime put a Strengthning Plaiſter to the place grieved; otherwiſe bruiſe Kali, and apply it outwardly, drinking the boiled Juice inwardly.

Probatum eſt.

For Burning

THE Juice of Ferns and old Urine, or Leeks ſodden and applied: But a little Cream, and the yolk of an Egg, is beſt for Infants.

Probatum eft.

To Looſen the Belly.

DRINK a good quantity of Ale Wort, very new: and anoint the Belly with the Juice of Apple Rainzy, called Southernwood: this is better than common Phyſics.

C Probatum eſt.
