'The famous Bavarian Red Liquor:
Which gives such a delightful blus.h.i.+ng Colour to the Cheeks of those that are White or Pale, that it is not to be distinguished from a natural fine Complexion, nor perceived to be artificial by the nearest Friend. Is nothing of Paint, or in the least hurtful, but good in many Cases to be taken inwardly. It renders the Face delightfully handsome and beautiful; is not subject to be rubb'd off like Paint, therefore cannot be discovered by the nearest friend. It is certainly the best Beautifier in the World.'
[Footnote 1: So also after the Drury Lane advertis.e.m.e.nt of the play of the night, is usually advertised: 'This Play is sold by Jacob Tonson,'
