"Since the destination of the remedy is distant, seed of Henbane and Cinnamon are put in it so that one of them will retain the strength of the medicine holding it up to quiet the cough which is the cause of the Spitting of Blood. The other makes it penetrate so that it reaches the farthest destination." (Source text)
