For the Mouth. For a stinking Breath
Take an Ounce of Sage, and make thereof Powder, one Ounce of Rosemary Flowers, half an Ounce of Cloves, two Drams of Cinamon, two Nutmegs, and two Grains of Musk, and make them all into Powder, then take as much purified Honey as will cover all of them, put in a Box, and set it in the Sun five dayes, and it will be perfect: then take every Morning fasting half an Ounce, and so at Night to comfort the Meat that it putrifie not, or corrupt the Stomach; and be whole.
