Title: Pharmacopoeia Londinensis
Description: Translation of Epilogus to this edition: We publish the London Pharmacopoeia at a second birth, or rather a second appearance. For, of that ill-formed and deformed former one, shall we say that the hasty printer published it? ... he filched from our hands this work, still unpolished, without awaiting and indeed in the absence of the President ... When he [the President] returned, indignant that it had appeared in public defiled by so many mistakes and errors ... he called his colleagues together ... and brought to maturity the second edition, which now at length comes to light free from mistakes and more copious in remedies ...
Subjects: Pharmacopoeias, Dispensatories, Medicine
