NEUOFFENBARUNGThis nineteenth-century devotional text describes historical remedies. Please do not use these preparations or procedures as medical advice or in place of professional care.
[HS.01_006,01] Take a crucible made of serpentine stone that holds a good two Seidel. Obtain also a stirring or grinding pestle of the same stone and see whether you can get 1 or 1½ Seidel of lamb’s blood from a butcher, or, if this is unavailable, blood from a perfectly healthy calf. Put the blood into the crucible described above. If one crucible is too small, take two and put half the blood into each, that is, half or three quarters of a Seidel. Then expose this blood to the sun like the earlier remedies, and stir it constantly as long as the sun shines on it. Overnight, however, protect it well from the air and put it in a cool, dry place.
[HS.01_006,02] Continue stirring the blood and setting it out in the sun until it dries completely. When it is entirely dry, reduce it to powder in the same vessel with the same pestle by rubbing, crushing and pounding.
[HS.01_006,03] When you have obtained a reddish-brown powder in this way, keep it in clean, dark glass vessels.
[HS.01_006,04] This remedy is to be used in the same way as the first two kinds and likewise acts universally. It will be of benefit chiefly to people with lung ailments, as well as to those who suffer from frequent bleeding of one kind or another.
[HS.01_006,05] If, after several exposures, the blood should offend your sense of smell with a disagreeable odour peculiar to blood, pay no heed to it. Such an odour is harmless, and in the end, when the blood is dry, it turns into a distinct fragrance.
[HS.01_006,06] But you must not take blood from another animal, nor blood from grown cattle or sheep. For once such animals begin to feed on grass, the specific constituents of the soul in their blood become coarser and less pure, and they would absorb from the sun’s rays only what is akin to them.
[HS.01_006,07] Therefore the blood of the two kinds of animal mentioned, lamb and calf, is suitable for the purpose described above only as long as they still live on their mother’s milk, provided that the animals are perfectly healthy.
[HS.01_006,08] If properly stored, this remedy retains its full effect for an entire year. After a year it grows weaker. It can indeed be strengthened by exposing it once more to the sun’s rays for a time, but a new preparation is always better.
[HS.01_006,09] This, then, is the fourth method. More about another shortly.
