Persons who have been scorched by the sun should be laid in an airy
place, and have their face, hands, and legs bathed with cold water. If
thirsty, they may drink cold water, if in the practice so to do; this,
however, ought to be done considerately, and not much at a time. Let them
also take some food of easy distribution, rather of a fluid than of a
solid nature.
