xxx^lii INTRODUCTION. 



Pound and half of dry Pennyroyal, a Gallon of 

 Spirit, and fix Quarts of Water, drawing of a 



Gallon. 



4. A nnifced Water, which Is good In the Cholic, 



and is made with a Pound of Annifeed, a Pound 

 of Angelica Seed, and two Gallons of Spirit, with 

 one Gallon of Water, diftiUing off two Gallons. 

 No more than thefe are necefTary: But before I 

 clofe this Article of diftilling, I ihall add the 

 making of Lavender Water, Spirit of Lavender, 

 and Hungary Water, which are Preparations of 

 the fame Kind, and very eafy. 



Lavender Water, is made from a Pound of 

 frefh Lavender Flowers, and a Gallon of Molof- 

 fes Spirit, with two Quarts of Water-, five Pints is 

 to be diftilled off. Hungary Water, is made of 

 a Pound and half of Rofemary Tops with the 

 Flowers, a Gallon of Spirit, and a Gallon of Wa- 

 ter, difliliing off five Pints: And to make the 

 Spirit of Lavender, or Paify Drops, mix three 

 Pints of Lavender Water, and one Pint of Hun- 

 gary Water, and add to this half an Ounce of 

 Cinnamon, the fame Quantity of Nutmegs, and 



three Drams of red Saunders Wood, thefe are to 

 ftand together till the Spirit is well coloured. 



This is all the family Practitioner will need 

 with diftilling: A ihort Account, but fufficient. 



As for Tindures, which are a great Article 

 with the Apothecary and Chemift, making a great 

 Shew, and really very ufefui ; I would have fe- 

 veral of them kept, and they are as eafily made 

 as the Waters, nay more eafily. Molofles Spirit 

 is all that is necefTary for this Purpofe. 



It would be well to keep Tindures of all thofe 

 Roots and Barks, which are faid to be good dried 

 in the Courfe of this Work, for a Tinifture will 

 contain more or lefs of the Virtue pf every one of 



■ thefe.
