Exact source claims and related context are never blended together.
This hierarchy shows why a use appears beside the preparation. The strongest relationship comes first; contextual links remain explicitly labeled.
The preparation remains searchable as an archival method record without an invented indication.

Method as extracted
- Mix according to the source passage: Syrup of Foppies is thus prepared: — Poppy heads bruised 3 pounds, put into 5 gallons of water, boil down to 2 gallons ; strain, and again boil to 4 pints; strain, and set aside to cool, and allow the dregs to subside : again boil to 2 pints ; and in this dissolve 6 pounds of Lump Sugar, pour into a vessel to cool, and add Spirits of Wine 5 fluid ounces ; this forms an ingredient in 38 594 THE FAMILY HOCTOE : man / cough mixtures, and is often given to children to soothe them when fretful, a most reprehensible practice ; the dose for an adult is from 2 to 4 drops. Syrup of Red Foppies {Syncpus Rhceados), is made by pouring on a pound of Poppy leaves 1 pint of boiling water ; let it macerate for 12 hours, then strain, and add 3 pounds of sugar; boil until well dissolved, then add Spirits of Wine 2^ fluid ounces ; it is ques- tionable whether there is much medical virtue in this ; it is chiefly used as a colour- ing material.
Live editorial status
This record was published without a human-review gate by site policy. Automated flags at publication: no primary ingredient taxon link, title ingredient mismatch, not marked promotable, critical hazard archive only. Publication makes the source extraction inspectable; it does not verify identity, completeness, efficacy or safety.

Primary wording. Visible interpretation. No borrowed certainty.
The public record separates the historical passage, structured preparation data, use relationship and modern safety boundary. Same-plant context is presented as context, never as proof that this preparation was intended for that use.
