right Strength (which fhould at lealt be four 
Parts Water to one of Brandy, and in Sum- 
mer eight or nine Parts Water to one of 
Brandy or Rum, except to gouty or aged 
Perfons, who require it ftronger) and mo- 
derately drank, is an admirable Liquor (pro- 
vided it be made of French Brandy, or of 
good old MololTos Spirits, which if rightly 
made, kept, of a ftrong Body, and purified 
fome Months with Sea Air, are every whit 
as good) and an excellent Diuretic ; it pow- 
erfully cleanfes Kidneys, Ureters, and Blad- 
der from fmall Stones, Sand, and fabulous 
Matter, from the Thinnefs of the Liquor, 
fubtile Oil, and volatile Salts of the Spirits, 
Oil and fixed Salt of the Sugar, and auftere 
Salts of the Lemon ; which wafh off, fepa- 
rate, and diffolve thefe Cohefions in the 
urinary Paffages : The Acidity of the Le- 
mon gives a Stimulus to the Veffels* and at 
the fame time the Salts encreafe the Mo- 
mentum of the Blood. 
Not only are thefe vifcid and fizy Com- 
binations of the Blood broken and dilTolved, 
and the Juices attenuated and thinned in the 
urinary Paffages and Strainers, but all over 
the Body ; therefore will thefe volatile Salts 
clear and cleanfe the fccretory and excretory 
Duds
