"The universe is surrounded by the sphere of stars. Beyond that sphere is Schamayim, which is the Divine fiery Water, the first outflow of the Word of
God, the flaming river pouring from the presence of the Eternal. Schamayim, the fiery Androgynous, divides. The fire becomes Solar fire, and the water
becomes Lunar water. Schamayim is the universal mercury -- sometimes called Azoth -- the measureless spirit of life. The spiritual fiery original
water comes through Eden (in Hebrew, vapor), and pours itself into the four main rivers, the four Elements. This is the River of living water -- Azoth
-- the fiery mercurial essence, that flows out from the throne of God and the Lamb. In this Eden [vaporous essence or mist] is the spiritual earth,
incomprehensible and intangible, or the dust Aphar, out of which God formed Adam min Haadamah, the spiritual body of man, which body must sometime
become revealed."
Oooooommmmmm!

Yes but i read this in old drinks recipes book, to my mind its absolut diethylether, but i am not sure ScienceSquirrel - 8-4-2011 at 03:38
It might be ethyl nitrite aka sweet spirits of nitre.
This is used as a cold remedy, although it is banned in most places, and it is conceivable that someone would add it to a grog.
The traditional grog round here is rum, sugar, lemon juice and hot water.
It does not make the cold better, but it does make it more bearable
