SIR, 
W^Earenow bufie, by the Kiog's order^ in makiog Eic- 
periraeDts, whence the world is like to receive great 
benefit. 'Tis needlefs to prepare you for it by putriog you io 
mind of ^he difficulty there is io flopping the Blood of Arte- 
riesj prickt orcut. Mean timehere hathbeeo found outau 
admirable Eflence, which being applied to any Artery what- 
foeverj flops the blood inflantly without any need of binding 
up the wound. We have firft experimented it upon Dogs^

it felf 5 and the blood flopp'd in left time than needs to read 
this Letter. 'Tis a remedy which is not corrofive 3 the wound 
heahng without any (car, fuppuratioo, or cicatrice. 
We have al(b made Tryals upon Men, of whom the Tem- 
poral arteries were open'd 5 and upon othcrs^whofe hands and 
face bad been cut ; Add i^t fucceeded with them as well as it 
did upon dogs. 
You may judge, how ufeful this Eflence is like.to prove ia 
Armies, where moft men dye for want of a good remedy to 
flop the blood. This Liquor works not only outwardly, but 
alfo being taken inwardly 5 for it flops the Lofs of blood i« 
/<f«??/«/.f 3 Inveterate fluxes of blood, open Hemorrhoidesjand 
other Hemorrhagses. 
Now that this Remedy hath been well tryed in the preflcce 
of all the CQurt,and of many of ourbcft Phyfitiansand Chir» 
UrgioDs, that have admired it 5 the King hath given a priv^ ' 
ledgeto fell itin his Armies and throughout the whole Kiog- 
dome* . 
So far thi^ Letter 5 which being confirmed by thofe of cwa 
others, perfons of good credit, of the fame place^ hath in-,
