1. _To make Elder Vinegar and to colour it._

Take of your best white Wine Vinegar, and put such a quantity of ripe
Elder Berries into it as you shall think fit, in a wide mouth'd Glass,
stop it close, and set it in the Sun for about ten days, then pour it
out gently into another Glass, and keep it for your use; thus you may
make Vinegar of Red Roses, Cowslipps, Gilliflowers, or the like.

Take what quantity you please of Spring-Water, and make it so strong
with Honey that it will bear an Egg, then boil it very well, till a good
part be wasted, and put in to it boiling a good quantity of whole Spice,
Rosemary, Balm, and other cordial and pleasant Herbs or Flowers.

When it is very well boiled, set it to cool, it being strained from the
Herbs, and the Bag of Spices taken out;
