tftod and Medicines, that 
are defign’d to drive out 
the Fever by Sweat. In 
this Cale we muftlay hold 
of the leaft RemiiFion, and 
give the Poowder every 
fourth Hour ; left, whilft 
we attend on the Fit, there 
fhould not be time enough 
for the Powder to work 
upon th Blood. But fee- 
ing there are fome that can- 
not take the Bark, neither 
in the form of a Powder, 
nor of an Elecftuary , or 
Pills, I give to thefe an In- 
fofion of it made in the 
Cold : I infufe for fome 
time two Ounces of the 
Bark, grofly powder’d, in 
a Quart of Rhenifh-wine 
ana four Ounces of the laid 
Infufidn feems to contain 
the Virtue of one Dram of 
the Powder ; and becauie 
it is not unpieafant , nor 
does opprefs the Stomach, 
it may be taken as often 
again as any other Form of 
this Medicine j namely, till 
it has cured the Ague. 
Sometimes it happens, that 
before this Difeafe forms it 
felf into Regular Fits, the 
Sick, by reafon of continual 
Vomiting, cannot contain 
the Bark in the Stomach 
in what Form foever it is 
caken. In- this Cafe, the 
Vomiting mull be firltltop- 
ped , before the Bark is' 
given : To which End I 
order, that fix or eight 
dines, in the Space of two 
Hours, the Sick take one 
Scruple of Salt of Worm, 
wood, in one Spoonful of 
the Juice of Limons frefn 
prels’d out ; afterwards fix- J 
teen Drops of Liquid Lau- 
danum, in a Spoonful of | 
ftrong Cinnamon-water 9 
and loon after, if the Vo- 
miting be ftop’d, let him 
take the Jefuit’s-powder. 
For Infants, whofe tender 
Age can fcarce bear this 
Remedy in any otherForm, , 
at leaft, fo much of it as 
may be fufficient to cure 
the Difeafe, I preferibe the 
following Julap : Take of 
Biack-Cherry-water and 
Rhenifh-wine , each two 
Ounces ; of the Jeluit’s- , 
powder three Drams, of 
Syrup of july-flowers onej 
Ounce ; mingle them, and 
make a Julap; give aSpoon- 
ful or two, according to the 
Age of the’ Child, every 
fourth Hour, till the Dif- 
eafe is cured ; dropping in- 
to every other Dole, if there
