The Virtue of the COFFEE Drink. First publicly made and sold in England, by Pasqua Rosee.  
THE Grain or Berry called Coffee, groweth upon little Trees, only in the Deserts of Arabia.  
It is brought from thence, and drunk generally throughout all the Grand Signors Dominions.  
It is a simple innocent thing, composed into a Drink, by being dried in an Oven, and ground to Powder, and boiled up with Spring water, and about half a pint of it to be drunk, fasting an hour before, and not Eating an hour after, and to be taken as hot as possibly can be endured; the which will never fetch the skin off the mouth, or raise any Blisters, by reason of that Heat.  
The Turks drink at meals and other times, is usually Water, and their Diet consists much of Fruit; the Crudities whereof are very much corrected by this Drink.

It suppresseth Fumes exceedingly, and therefore good against the Headache, and will very much stop any Defluxion of Rheums, that distil from the Head upon the Stomach, and so prevent and help Consumptions; and the Cough of the Lungs.  
It is excellent to prevent and cure the Dropsy, Goat, and Scurvy.  
It is known by experience to be better than any other Drying Drink for People in years, or Children that have any running humours upon them, as the Kings Evil. etc.  
It is very good to prevent Miscarryings in Childbearing Women.  
It is a most excellent Remedy against the Spleen, hypocondriac Winds, or the like.  
It will prevent Drowsiness, and make one fit for business, if one have occasion to Watch; and therefore you are not to Drink of it after Supper, unless you intent to be watchful, for it will hinder sleep for 3 or 4 hours.  
It is observed that in Turkey, where this is generally drunk, that they are not troubled with the Stone, Gout, Dropsy, or Scurvy, and that their Skins are exceeding clear and white.  
It is neither Laxative nor Restringent.
