If he takes to Food, nothing mud be given him but 

 moiften'd Hay, and fcalded Bran ; and what elfe, muft be 

 chiefly fuch Things as are proper- to keep down Heat and 

 Inflammation, and abate the Feverifh Symptoms, for which 

 Purpofe we recommend, after Bleeding, thofe Remedies 

 that are proper to promote Sweat. Therefore let the fol- 

 lowing Drench be prepar'd for him. 



'V Take Treacle- water and Carduus- water of each one 

 *' Pint, diflblvein thefe two Ounces of old ^(?«/V^- Treacle, 

 " and after this has been exhibited, cloathe him well, and 

 " give him a little warm Water to drink; inftead of the 

 *' Treacle and Carduus- water, a Pint of Hale Beer, mixed 

 *' with fmall Beer, may be us'd." Nothing is fo efFedtual 

 to remove Inflammations, efpecially after Bleeding, as 

 Sweating ; and therefore if you find it difficult lO promote 

 Sweat, you may give him the following Ball. 



" Takeof old ^mV^ Treacle two Ounces, volatile Salt 

 " of Harts-horn fifteen Grains, MLitthew"& Pill one Dram, 

 *' Camphire in Powder fix Grains, Powder of Liquorice, 

 *' or Saiiafras in Powder, what is fufficient to make it into 

 *' a Palle." Let this be exhibited after the Operation of 

 the Clyfl:er is over. 



And if the Symptoms begin to abate, you may venture to 

 give your Horfe a gentle Purge, for which Purpofe the Puhis 

 Cornachiniy commonly called the Counteis of Warwick's 

 Powder, takes place beyond all others, and is thus made. 



*' Take Scammony prepar'd with the Fumes of Brim- 

 " fl:one four Ounces, Diaphoretick Antimony two Ounces, 

 *' and the fame quantity of the Cryltals, or Cream of Tar- 

 ^' tar ; make them into a fine Powder. 



The Dofe is two Ounces, made up into a Ball with But- 

 ter and Flour, to be given with the ufual Precautions. 



This Medicine not only purges the Belly moderately, but 

 alfo keeps the Pores open, and carries off a great deal by 

 Sweat and infenfible Tranfpiration. 



If the Swelling appears outwards, and at the fame Time 

 the other Symptoms abate, you may then leave off" Pur- 

 ging, for what is intended by that Evacuation, is chiefly to 

 difperfe the inward Diforder ; and then you are only to 

 apply ripening Cataplafms and Poultices, allowing him at 

 the fame Time Sal Prunella y Salt-petre, or the Sal Poly- 

 chrejlum diflblv'd in his Water. 



The Cataplafm for this Purpofe may be made of the fol- 

 lowing Ingredients.
