Purl

Take ten pounds of wormwood, six pounds of gentian, two pounds of dried rind of orange, half a pound of bruised ginger, two ounces of cloves, and eight ounces of cardamoms. Put these ingredients in six gallons of water, boil the mixture, then digest for fourteen or fifteen days, and decant into wine-bottles. Add this to warm beer, according to taste.
