AB In  the  year  1775  my  opinion  was  asked  concerning  a  family  recipe  for  the  cure  of  the  dropsy.  I  was  told  that  it  had  long  been  kept  a  secret  by  an  old  woman  in  Shropshire  who  had  sometimes  made  cures  after  the  more  regular  practitioners  had  failed—this  medicine  was  composed  of  twenty  or  more  different  herbs  and  the  active  herb  could  be  no  other  than  the  Foxglove.WILLIAM  WITHERING  (1741–99),  ON  THE  USE  OF  FOXGLOVE  (DIGITALIS)  IN  THE  TREATMENT  OF  HEART  DISEASE
