Translation
The disease of cold in the brain comes of an evil attacking the upper burner, making the head ache day and night without rest; this medicine governs it. Gypsum 2 nyang; chuanxiong, aconite main root (blast-fried), angelica dahurica and licorice 1 nyang each; borneol 2 don. Powder them, mix evenly with refined honey and flour paste, and make eighteen pills to the nyang, coated with red lead; take two or three, chewed down after food with a decoction of scallion and tea. — Seui Deukhyobang 得效 (Donguibogam · Du)
