without Excrements ; and commonly, but not al- 

 ways, attended with Griping Pains in the Guts. 



If the Caufe of this Diflemper is any Error in 

 the tlorfe's Food, Water, or Exercife, the Re- 

 moval of fuch Caufe is the better Half of the Cure. 



Then from whatfoever Caufe the Scouring pro- 

 ceed, the Stomach is to be ftrengthened, and fuch 

 Things given inwardly as abforb Acids ; both which 

 Forms I have mention'd before : However, that the 

 Reader may not be at the Trouble of looking back ■ 

 wards, I fhall again name fome Drugs which are 

 proper in fuch Cafes ; and, firft, I think if you 

 give the Horfe pretty well of my Cordial Ball, ei- 

 ther by way of Bolus, or diiTolved in Wine or Beer, 

 it is as good as moft Things I can order. How- 

 ever, leaft it may be thought that I intended to 

 make this Cordial Ball as univerfal as Ci^-pt.' Burton 

 has made his Turnep-Poultis, I fhall offer a Cordial 

 Stomachick Drink, (or Drench) as follows. 



A CoTilial Take Anni feeds, CaraivaySeeds, and Cardamoms 



Carmina- the lejfer, of each an Ounce ; 'Jtiniper-Berriesy four 



^^^ , 'Ounces ; bruife the Seeds and Berries, a7id put them 



the Lax or ^''^^ofive Pints of Mint-Water ; then add to them 



Scouring. -^^'^ Ounces of Venice Treacle, or Mithridate. Boil 



to the Confuviption of half ', then f rain cut the Liquor, 



and add to it half a Pint of good Red Port Wine, 



.and half a Pmnd of Treacle. 



The Price. This may be prepared for about two Shillings; 

 and he who will not lay out fo fmall a Matter for a 

 Tight good Drink for his Horfe, ought to trudge on 

 Foot : But I have one Thing to fay for't ; It is not 

 fo dear as Mr. Gib/en's Clyfler for the Lax or Scou- 

 ring, Pag. 137, where he orders three Ounces of Oil 

 of Pue at a Time, which will coft thirty Shillings ; 

 unlefs the Apothecaries can make you believe that 

 common Oil, in which Rue has been infufed, is as 

 good as the Chymical Oil, thu' there's no Compa- 

 rifon between them.
