Project Gutenberg EPUB3 edition
Culpeper, Nicholas
College.] Take of fresh Peach-flowers a pound, steep them a whole day in three pounds of warm water, then boil a little and strain it out, repeat this infusion five times in the same liquor, in three pounds of which dissolve two pounds and an half of sugar and boil it into a Syrup.
Culpeper.] It is a gentle purger of choler, and may be given even in fevers to draw away the sharp choleric humours.
