A warm Cardiac Electuary.
Take Conserve of Gilly flowers, Conserve of the yellow peel of Lemons, each 1 ounce; candy'd Citron peel, Green Ginger, Electuary of Sassaphras, Juice of Kermes strained, each half an ounce; Oil of Nutmeg 2 drops; Oil of Cinnamon and Cloves, each 1 drop, mix.
It operates primarily and properly upon the Stomach, conforting it, by being Aromatic and Warm, and from thence raising up the Spirits into a kind of Ovation, refreshes the languishing Heart, and recruits wasted Strength. Upon this account (which I note by the by) all true Stomachics, of right and due, ought to be accounted of the same Family with Cardiacs. Let half an ounce be taken three times a day.
