Grind the above five ingredients into powder and make into pills with refined honey, the size of a chicken's head. Grind with a sip of natural ginger juice, then mix with honeyed wine and administer warm with wine. For chronic soft wind, it should be done in a warm, windless chamber, using sweet distiller's grains, scallions, and pepper to boil a decoction for soaking, and when the soft area sweats, take one pill. For those with long-standing softness, first burn a magpie's nest to moxibustion the soft area until it is thoroughly heated, then take this medicine for best effect.

Paralysis, wind, and light breeze.
