They are also good in hysterical Disorders and very effectual in clearing the Head from a confused Stupor and Gloominess; are excellent for Disorders incident to young Women, but not proper for Women with Child; but may be used with great Safety and Success in all Cases which appear to be scorbutick, or really proceed from the Scurvy.
