page 77 of 85 (90%)
Raisins of the Sun stoned, two handfuls of red Roses clipped and dried,
one handful of red Mint, half a handful of Rosemary, as much of Hysop, a
few Cloves; put all these in a great double Glass close stopped, and set
it in the sun three months, and so use it.



_A water for one pensive and very sick, to comfort the Heart very
excellent._

Take a good spoonful of _Manus Christi_, beaten very small into powder,
then take a quarter of a pound of very fine sugar, and beat it small,
and six spoonfuls of Cinamon water, and put to it, and ten spoonfuls of
red Rose-water; mingle all these together, and put them in a dish, and
set them over a soft fire five or six walms, and so let it be put into a
glass, and let the party drink thereof a spoonful or two, as he shall
see cause.



_To perfume Water._

Take Malmsey or any kind of sweet water; then take Lavender, Spike,
sweet Marjoram, Balm, Orange peels, Thyme, Basil, Cloves, Bay leaves,
Woodbine flowers, red and white Roses, and still them all together.

FINIS.
