Small blisters tease as much as large ones, and are far inferior in the...
Página 609 - Take of moss growing on the head of a thief who has been hanged and left in the air ; of real mummy ; of human blood, still warm — of each, one ounce; of human suet, two ounces ; of linseed oil, turpentine, and Armenian bole — of each, two drachms. Mix all well in a mortar, and keep the salve in an oblong, narrow urn.
