久嗽肺燥肺痿。
羊肺（一具） 杏仁（净研） 柿霜 真酥 真粉（各一两） 白蜜（二两）
上先将羊肺洗净，次将五味入水搅粘，灌入肺中，白水煮熟，如常服食，前七药相间服
之亦佳。
真粉真酥并柿霜，杏仁净研两平当。蜜加二两调粘用，灌入肺中水煮尝。
血去则燥，燥则火旺，肺必枯。欲从肾源滋水，而不先滋水之母，有是理乎？然肺为多
气少
寒，不独凉金，且以培土，人所未知也。润肺之中，意则甚美，故曰∶医者，意也。
陈修园按∶方中真粉，即《伤寒论》猪肤汤之白粉也。本文未明为何粉，一说即天花粉
，主
中土，交水火而止烦燥，而且藉土气以生金。二说俱有深义，余每用则从后说，今读先生此
方，又阅周氏所注，真白粉即天花粉无疑。嘉庆丁巳岁，余应兴泉观察阿公，泉州郡伯张公
聘，主清源书院讲席。日者用天花粉一味，药铺送白粉一包，其色晶莹洁白，迥出诸药之上
。余传问之，答曰∶此物最贱，而制造却难，惟冬月叶落，其气尽归于根，掘取，以法取汁
，和水淘洗，澄之，晒干收贮，才有如此宝色，若无此色，恐伪物弗效，不如止用天花粉片
之较妥也。今先生加一真字，何等郑重其辞。推而论之，《金匮》于虫病制有甘草粉蜜汤以
杀虫，若虚痨久嗽，为瘵虫蚀虫，铅粉性毒，能杀三虫，今杂于蜂蜜柿霜羊肺之中，诱虫食
之，旋而甘味尽，毒性发而虫患除矣。此非正解，亦可备之，以启悟机。
久咳导致肺燥、肺痿。
羊肺（一具） 杏仁（去皮尖并研碎） 柿霜 真酥（奶油/酥油） 真粉（各一两） 白蜜（二两）
先将羊肺洗净，然后将五味药加入水中搅拌至粘稠，灌入肺中，用白水煮熟，像平常一样食用，前七味药间隔服用也很好。
真粉、真酥和柿霜，与净研的杏仁分量相等。蜂蜜加二两调和至粘稠，灌入肺中水煮食用。
失血则生燥，燥盛则火旺，肺必然枯槁。想要从肾源滋补水液，却不先滋养水之母（金生水，故肺为肾之母），有这样的道理吗？然而肺脏多气少血，不仅要用凉润之品清肃肺金，还要通过培补脾土来生金，这是人们所不知道的。在润肺的方法中，此方立意甚美，所以说：医者，意也（医生的诊疗需要运用思维推演）。
陈修园按语：方中的真粉，就是《伤寒论》猪肤汤中的白粉。本文没有明确说明是什么粉，一种说法是天花粉，主要作用于中焦脾胃，交通水火而止烦燥，并且借助土气来生金。两种说法都有深意，我平时使用则采用后一种说法，今天读了先生的这个方子，又查阅了周氏的注解，确定真白粉就是天花粉无疑。嘉庆丁巳年，我应兴泉观察阿公、泉州郡伯张公聘请，主持清源书院讲席。有一天使用天花粉一味药，药铺送来一包白粉，颜色晶莹洁白，远超其他药物。我询问来源，回答说：这东西最便宜，但制造却很难，只有冬天叶子落尽时，药气全部归于根部，挖掘出来，依法取汁，和水淘洗，沉淀后晒干收贮，才有如此宝贵的色泽，如果没有这种颜色，恐怕是伪物无效，不如直接只用天花粉片比较稳妥。现在先生加一个“真”字，言辞何等郑重。推究而论，《金匮要略》对于虫病制定了甘草粉蜜汤来杀虫，如果是虚劳久咳，由瘵虫侵蚀所致，铅粉性毒，能杀三虫，现在混杂在蜂蜜、柿霜、羊肺之中，引诱虫子吃下，随即甜味耗尽，毒性发作而虫患消除。这虽然不是正解，也可以备录，以启发悟性。
Chronic cough leading to Lung dryness (Fei Zao) and Lung atrophy (Fei Wei).
Sheep lung (one whole), Apricot Kernels (Bitter, peeled and ground), Persimmon Frost, True Butter/Ghee, True Powder (each 1 liang), White Honey (2 liang).
First, wash the sheep lung clean. Then, add the five ingredients to water, stir until viscous, and inject into the lung. Boil in plain water and consume as usual. It is also good to take the first seven ingredients separately.
True powder, true butter/ghee, and persimmon frost are equal in weight to the peeled and ground apricot kernels. Add two liang of honey to adjust for viscosity, inject into the lung, boil in water, and consume.
Blood loss leads to dryness; dryness leads to excessive fire, causing the Lung to wither. If one wishes to nourish water from its source (Kidney), but does not first nourish the mother of water (Lung, as Metal generates Water), is this logical? However, the Lung is abundant in Qi and deficient in Blood. It requires not only cooling Metal (clearing Lung heat) but also fortifying Earth (Spleen/Stomach) to generate Metal, a fact unknown to many. The intent within this method of moistening the Lung is excellent, hence it is said: "The physician relies on intention" (Yi Zhe, Yi Ye - medical practice involves intuitive reasoning).
Chen Xiuyuan's Note: The "true powder" in this formula refers to the "white powder" in Zhu Fu Tang (Pig Skin Decoction) from Shanghan Lun (Treatise on Cold Damage). This text does not specify which powder it is. One theory suggests it is Trichosanthis Radix (Gualou Gen/Tianhuafen), which primarily acts on the Middle Jiao, harmonizes Water and Fire to relieve irritability, and utilizes Earth Qi to generate Metal. Both theories hold profound meaning. I usually adopt the latter theory. Having read Mr. [the author's] formula here and reviewed Zhou's annotations, it is undoubtedly that the true white powder is Trichosanthis Radix. In the Ding-Si year of the Jiaqing era, I was invited by Governor A of Xingquan and Magistrate Zhang of Quanzhou to preside over the Qingyuan Academy. One day, when using Trichosanthis Radix alone, the pharmacy delivered a bag of "white powder." Its color was crystal clear and pure white, surpassing other medicines. I asked about its origin. The reply was: "This item is cheapest but difficult to manufacture. Only in winter, after leaves fall, does the medicinal energy return to the root. After digging it up, extracting juice according to method, washing with water, settling, and sun-drying, one obtains such precious color. Without this color, it may be fake and ineffective; it is safer to use slices of Trichosanthis Radix directly." Now, Mr. adds the character "true," how solemn the wording. Deductively speaking, Jingui Yaolue (Essential Prescriptions from the Golden Cabinet) formulated Gancao Fenmi Tang (Licorice, Powder, and Honey Decoction) to expel parasites in cases of intestinal worms. If chronic cough due to deficiency consumption is caused by "Zhai Chong" (tubercle bacilli/pathogenic worms), Lead Powder (Qianfen) is toxic and can kill three types of parasites. By mixing it with honey, persimmon frost, and sheep lung, it lures the parasites to ingest it. Once the sweet taste is exhausted, the toxicity activates, eliminating the parasitic infestation. Although this is not the orthodox explanation, it serves as a reference to inspire insight.
