予不知医而好抄方书,曾集古方之易简者、内外科各成帙,将以付剞劂,舍弟遂曰∶执
方以行药,是胶柱而鼓琵也。人有强弱虚实之别,非诊脉无由辨证。古方非不精微,而用违
其道,将毋误人。予遂不果。一日于义河渡头,见妇人睛垂于外者,心甚悯之。问之医,皆
芒然莫对。已而阅《本草纲目》,见夏子益《奇疾方》有此症,则其妇死已久。慨然叹息,
使早得此方,以授其妇,安知其不可活。于是采录奇疾怪症,或见之书,或闻之客谈,悉登
之。其得之本草者为多,本草非僻书,而诸方散见于各药之下,卷帙浩繁,无从搜索,故摘
出以便人查考。尚有得异疾而医束手者,与其坐而待毙,毋宁以此试之,此予抄辑本意也。
世有明医,自当以诊脉审证为定论矣。

取棉花籽、槐花米,各炒至焦黑,按等量比例混合,再用乌梅水、陈年白酒泛丸。每日用乌梅水送服,每次服用三钱即停止。
另一个方子:
取木耳四两,洗净,放入猪大肠中煮烂。以此作为下饭菜食用,吃完即可痊愈。
鸡蛋三十枚,蒺藜四两,淘洗干净后微炒,去掉刺,用砂罐加清水煮整整一昼夜,如果水干了就加水继续煮。每年冬季清晨,用三到四枚或二到三枚鸡蛋连同蒺藜汤一起服用,长期不间断服用,眼睛就不会昏花。老年人可以不用眼镜就能看清蝇头小字。
我不懂医术却喜欢抄录医书,曾收集古代简便易行的方剂,内科外科各成卷册,打算刻印出版,我的弟弟于是说:“拿着现成的方子去用药,就像粘住琴柱弹琵琶一样死板。人有强弱虚实的区别,不诊脉就无法辨证。古方的确精微,但如果使用不当,恐怕会误人。”我于是就没有付诸实施。有一天在义河渡口,看见一个妇人眼球脱出在外,心里非常怜悯她。询问医生,大家都茫然不知如何回答。后来翻阅《本草纲目》,看到夏子益的《奇疾方》中有此病症的记录,但那位妇人已经死去很久了。感慨叹息,假使早点得到这个方子,传授给那位妇人,怎么知道她不能活下来呢?于是采集记录奇奇怪怪的疾病症状,有的是从书上看到的,有的是听客人谈论的,全部登记在册。其中来源于本草书的占多数,本草书并非偏僻之书,但各种方剂散见于各药材条目之下,卷帙浩繁,无从搜索,所以摘选出来以便人们查阅参考。还有遇到奇异疾病而医生束手无策的情况,与其坐以待毙,不如用这些方子来尝试,这就是我抄录编辑的本意。世上有明医,自然应当以诊脉审证作为定论了。

Take cotton seeds and Sophora japonica Flower Buds (Huaimi, 槐花米), stir-fry each until charred black, mix in equal proportions, then make pills using Mume Fructus decoction (Wumei Shui, 乌梅水) and aged rice wine. Take orally daily with Mume Fructus decoction; stop after taking three qian per dose.
Another prescription:
Take four liang of Wood Ear Mushroom (Mu'er, 木耳), wash it thoroughly, and boil it until soft inside a pig large intestine. Eat this as a side dish with rice; the illness will be cured upon finishing the meal.
Decoct the bamboo leaves (Ruoye, 箬叶) found inside the basket of Songluo Tea (Songluo Cha, 松萝茶) to make one large bowl of decoction. Drink it, and bowel movement will become unobstructed.
Take thirty chicken eggs and four liang of Tribulus Terrestris Fruit (Ciji, 蒺藜). Wash them clean, stir-fry slightly, remove the spines, and boil in a clay pot with clear water for a full day and night. If the water dries up, add more water and continue boiling. Every winter morning at dawn, take three or four eggs, or two or three eggs, together with the Tribulus Terrestris decoction. Long-term continuous consumption prevents visual blurriness. Elderly people can read small print like fly heads without needing glasses.
I do not understand medicine but enjoy copying medical texts. I once collected simple and effective ancient prescriptions, organizing them into volumes for internal and external medicine, intending to have them printed. My younger brother said, "Using fixed prescriptions to administer medicine is like gluing the bridges on a pipa before playing it. People differ in strength, weakness, deficiency, and excess; without pulse diagnosis, there is no way to differentiate syndromes. Although ancient prescriptions are refined, if used improperly, they may harm people." Thus, I did not proceed. One day at the Yihe Ferry, I saw a woman with her eyeballs protruding outward and felt great pity. When I asked doctors, all were at a loss. Later, while consulting *Compendium of Materia Medica* (Bencao Gangmu, 本草纲目), I found that Xia Ziyi's *Prescriptions for Strange Diseases* (Qiji Fang, 奇疾方) recorded this condition, but that woman had long since died. Sighing with emotion, I thought, if only this prescription had been obtained earlier and given to that woman, who knows she could not have survived? Therefore, I collected and recorded strange diseases and symptoms, whether seen in books or heard from guests' conversations, and listed them all. Most were derived from Materia Medica texts. Since these are not obscure books, but various prescriptions are scattered under each herb entry, making them voluminous and hard to search, I extracted them for easier reference. There are also cases of strange diseases where doctors are helpless; rather than sitting and waiting for death, it is better to try these prescriptions. This is my original intention in compiling this text. Learned physicians in the world should naturally rely on pulse diagnosis and syndrome differentiation for definitive conclusions.
