    Cures
    The cure for pimples and carbuncles is to get nettles and bucks leaves and Robin-Run-the-Hedge and boil them with four pints of water. When they are a few hours boiling take the herbs out of the water and put Senna and Cream of Tartar and drink a glass of it every morning before your breakfast.
