Alguém saberia me informar o que são "English drops"? No contexto parece que era uma espécie de remédio, ou bebida ministrada a doentes. Meu texto refere-se ao século XVII. Eis a frase original para contextualização:
"Monsieur refused [bleeding], but later in the evening relented, calling in a physician to bleed him, in fact three times, and to administer as well an emetic purge [...] plus `two bottles of English drops'. His condition worsened almost at once; within twelve hours, he was dead."
Desde já, muito obrigada.
