could not keep down any nourifhment whatever. I 
prepared a deco&ion of a dram and a half of the 
Quafii Root, and a dram of the Rad. Serpent. Virgin. 
When it was ready, I fent for Dr. Warner, that he 
might fee the patient before I adminiftred it j he com- 
plained of fome pain on touching the pit of his fto- 
mach, had a very fluggifh low pulfe, a great pain over 
his eyes and in his eye balls, and vomitings. He took 
the decodtion, which furprizingly put a flop to his vo- 
miting ; he had no return after the firfl dofe, and kept 
down every thing. We indeed gave him fome 
Camphor and Sal Succini, on account of the fluggifh- 
nefs of the pulfe, but I have tried it alone in a de- 
codlion, with infinite advantage.
