I think he applied horse embrocation to himself; he would extol its efficacy, and would tell how, when the pain attacked his shoulder, the remedy "druv it" to his back; applied to the latter, "it druv it" to his legs; and so on indefinitely.
From Minora I have only had one communication since her departure, in which she thanked me for her pleasant visit, and said she was sending me a bottle of English embrocation to rub on my bruises after skating; that it was wonderful stuff, and she was sure I would like it; and that it cost two marks, and would I send stamps. I pondered long over this.
After this ceremony was duly performed, the old Esculapius let his patient's blood with a cupping-glass with great dexterity, and proceeded, muttering all the while to himself in Gaelic, to boil on the fire certain herbs, with which he compounded an embrocation.
"Row's Embrocation, or arnica," the Captain was saying. "It is probably in this pantry, my good girl, because it is the last place I should expect it to be in. I left it on my bedroom mantelpiece, but somebody has seen fit to meddle with it. Why in the name of all that is mysterious can't you let my things alone?" "And for what should I be after moving it for?" Martha retorted.
"Moore told me so; and I know exactly what to ask for a bottle of Roche's embrocation I've often got it before." Mrs Moore took a bottle from under her shawl and looked at it. "I did bring the bottle with me," she said hesitatingly, "so as there shouldn't be no mistake."

In less than a week she nearly recovered from her lameness, and ran about almost as well as ever. 30th. She runs about very fairly, but the mange has assumed that character of scurvy which I do not know how to grapple with.
Morgan finding there was no more damage done, could not help discovering by his countenance the pleasure he enjoyed on this occasion; and, while he bathed the doctor's face with an embrocation, ventured to ask him, whether he thought there were more fools or madmen on board?
"I'll give him a piece of my boot; all that's left of it," growled Jem Bottles, scowling. "You may take your will of him after he has put some embrocation on your bruises," said I; and as I was speaking there came a timorous little knock at the door. "Come in," I cried, and after some hesitation the door opened, and there stood little Doctor Chord with a big bottle under his arm.
Either bathing has been of the greatest service to her, or else it is to be attributed to an excellent embrocation of Mr. Wingfield's, which we have been applying at times ever since August."
