For a Cold and Cough.
⟨A⟩ large tea-cupful of linseed, two penny-worth of stick-liquorice, and a quarter of ⟨a⟩ pound of sun raisins, put to two quarts ⟨of⟩ soft water, and simmered over a slow ⟨fire⟩, till reduced one-third or more; add ⟨thereto⟩ a quarter of a pound of sugar-cane (illegible text) pounded, a table spoonful of white wine vinegar, ⟨and⟩ lemon-juice. Note--the rum and vinegar should be added only to the quantity ⟨which⟩ is about to be taken immediately. ⟨Drink⟩ half a pint at going to bed, or a ⟨small⟩ quantity at any time when the cough ⟨is⟩ troublesome.
