A RECOMMENDATION of that High and most Noble Medicine, The Essential Spirit of scurvy Grass Compound; The INVENTION and Preparation of the Sieur de Vernantes, a German born, Graduated in physic in those famous Universities, Montpelier and Padua in Italy, sometime Professor thereof in Leyden in Holland, and chief chemist and Physician to that great Lover of Learning and Art, Arch-Duke LEOPOLD; Communicated by him to Hen. clerk chemist and Apothecary of London: And by him now Prepared and publicly Vended for those who are at this day troubled with that most miserable and Reigning Disease the scurvy.  
WHILST the scurvy was yet but a stranger in this Nation; whilst it Visited only some sorts of People, as Sea-faring Persons, the Inhabitants of the Sea-Coasts, and those whose inconvenient ways of living made them subject to it; whilst the Symptoms were yet more tolerable and confined, the signs plain and apparent, and Physicians not puzzled to find out variety of Medicines to Cure it: It was then that this Noble Herb called Cochlearia, or Spoonwort, from its Shape and Figure; Changed its Name, and was called Scurvey-Grass, from a peculiar and specific Quality which was found in it to Cure this Disease which the People used diversely according to their necessity or fancy. But no Preparation of it was found so commodious and useful as the Spirits drawn from this Herb, which proved to be of the greatest benefit of any then found out. But when the scurvy begun to spread itself abroad, when it began to Rage, and seize all sorts of People in all places, with violent, malignant and even deadly Symptoms, that neither these Spirits, nor any ordinary Medicine could check its fierceness, much less Cure it. It was then that the Physicians Wisdom and Skill appeared, in finding out Medicines more active and effectual, and such as might totally vanquish and subdue this dangerous and deadly Foe to Mankind; And when the Single Spirit of Scurvey-Grass was found too weak to do this great business it was by the great care of the Physician enriched and strengthened, by the Addition of many more powerful and specific Materials, and was made the only sufficient Remedy to make a perfect Cure of this malignant and Reigning Disease, called, The scurvy. This is that Noble Spirit, which from the Hand of this great Artist above mentioned, I do offer to all who at this day suffer under the scurvy, be the symptoms greater or less. And in truth, Reader, you may herein rest secure of the most safe and certain Remedy in the World; which( as it is the highest Antidote against the scurvy, so it) is a most excellent Medicine 〈…〉 It Cures the dropsy even to a wonder, it opens all Obstructions whatsoever, it gives wonderful Relief to the Stomach, quickening the dull Appetite, and helps the Digestion and Concoction of the Victuals: It helps Virgins, who through stoppings have lost their colour, and restores the lost Complexion; It expelleth Wind, suppresseth Vapours, helps the Pain and dullness of the Head, exhales all Catarrhs and Rheums, helps Rheumatism and Gout, and also Pains in the joints, gripping in the Guts. And to be short, it cleanseth and sweetens the whole Mass of the Blood, and suffers no matter to reside therein, from whence Diseases may arise; And preserves the Body in entire and perfect Health, to those who use it constantly and with Temperance; It is to be taken in some good liquours, such are Beer, Ale, Wine, Mum, or the like. But not in Coffee, Tea, or such Drinks as are taken so hot, for the Spirit being fine and subtle, the purer part of it vanisheth in the stream before it can be drank off; It is equally useful at all seasons of the year; for though the Spring and Fall are the usual times for Medicine, yet these Spirits are no less beneficial at other times; for as in the Winter they warm the stomach, and give the blood a brisk motion, so in the Summer they keep in the Spirits and natural Heat, which are apt to suffer by the Heat of the whither, especially upon the least Exercise. A larger Account of this, as also of the Golden Laxaeive Spirit, and its use, shall be given in the Printed Papers of Directions given with each Bottle.
