All, I would like to make a clarification on a recent blog post. I had incorrectly identified the author and work where the recipe for tooth water was from. I have a collection containing several period works, and believed it part of John Russell’s Boke of Nurture, when, in fact, it is part of William Vaughan’s Naturall & Artificial Directions for health. The collection of works is available through Google Books.
The link to the collection is: https://books.google.com/books?id=sTMJAAAAQAAJ&printsec=frontcover&source=gbs_ge_summary_r&cad=0#v=onepage&q&f=false
I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
