Or having impregnated linen cloth with the jīvanīya [herbs] mixed with the fluid of sparrow eggs, / one should smoke the smoke, followed by milk boiled with heated iron balls.
Thus ends the treatment of cough born of chest-injury.
One should avoid [treating] cough born of wasting when fully manifested in a weak patient; / when recently arisen in a strong patient, one should undertake treatment after declaring [its incurability].
