A Bechic Lohoch.
Take powdered and searced black Bechic Troches 2 drams; Lohoch Sanans half an ounce; Syrup of Jujubes as much as sufficient, mix.
It obtunds Acrimony, appeases Irritation, coats over, lubricates, incrassates and maturates. It's then especially useful, when acrid, salt, thin Serum, dropping out of the Glands, continually tickles the Larynx, and cruelly fatigues the Patient, with a perpetual returning Cough.
