some fit and proper Tragea in grosse powder mixed with sugar, or else

simple or compound, (such as the Physitians do often prescribe to their

fields, or Castle yard.

_=Of the Symtomes or accidents, which may now and then chance to happen
to some one or other in the use of this water.=_
Although those who are of good and strong constitutions, observing the
aforenamed direction, doe seldome or never receive any harme, or
detriment by drinking this water: notwithstanding it may sometime so
fall forth, that some of the weaker sort may perhaps observe some
little, or small inconvenience thereby, as retention of it in the body:
inflation of the bellie: costivenesse, and the like.
