:
likewise
as
a
hole
man
taketh
pleasure
and
delite
in

meat
.
The
cause
of
this
disease
,
is
replecion
of

the
pacient
demaundeth
,
although

thereby
one
getteth

The

Chapter
of
the
cure
of

.
PAine
of
the
stone
is
one
of
the
most
enormous
paines
that
the
bodye
of
man
is
vexed
with
,
for
by
it
many
times
the
natural
vertues
are
distroied
,
women
lose
their
fruit
afore
the
time
,
cruel
&
perillous
accidentes
commonly
do
encrease
,
yea
&
oftentimes
death
without

.
Wherfore
it
shal
be
expedient
to
the
comfort
of
the
poore
folkes
,
and
other
that
be
greued
,
to
write
some
good
and
holsome
medicines
for
auoydynge
of
the
stone
,
¶
And
seeyng
that
all
authours
doe
affyrme
the
stone
to
bee
engendred
by
reason
of
the
great
heat
that
is
about
the
reines
,
streitnes
of
the
condites
,
&
aboundaunce
of
grosse
&
slimy
fleume
,
or
of

,
whiche
by
the
sayde
excesse
of

,
is
as
one
woulde
saye
,
baken
or
dryed
as
claye
is
in
the
furneis
,
and
so
at
last
becommeth
an
hard
stone
,
therefore
it
is
chiefly
to
be
noted
that
without
amendyng
of
the
forsaid
causes
,
all
that
ye
dooe
minister
for
to
breake
the
stone
is
eyther
hurtefull
to
the
pacient
,
or
els
of
smal
effecte
.
For
the
whiche
cause
it
is
very
necessarye
that
the
pacient
kepe
a
sober
dyet
.
And
for
the
better
vnderstandyng
,
ye
shal
know
,
that
all
wynes
(
whether
they
be
swete
or
sharpe
,
grosse
or
subtyl
,
white
or
redde
)
are
in
this
case
vtterly
re●ected
.
Pulses

of

kinde
soeuer
they
be
,
as

foules
,
and
foules
of
greate

,
as
bustardes
,
cranes
,
and
suche
lyke
,
are
in
this
case
very
daungerous
and
noysome
.
Also
ye
may
eat
no

,
except
it
be
a

melons
,
ripe
prunes
in

,

to
kepe

cold

After

parte
they
are
all
deriued
from
the
membre
mandant
,
that
is
to
saye
the
brayne
,
for
he
is
verye
grosse
,
and
engendreth
euer
humours
in
him selfe
,
by
reason
wherof
,
moche
of
the
sayde
humours
are
deriued
into
the
nuke
and
muscles
of
the
backe
,
&
fro
thence
they
descende
into
the
feete
,
and
then
it
is
called
podagra
,
or
to
the
huckle
boone
,
and
then
it
is
sciatica
,
or
els
into

&
ther
it

¶
Remedy
.
Forasmuch
as
all
the
sayd
kyndes
commeth
of
one
begynnyng
,
as
is
shewed
afore
,
and
for
the
better
expedicion
in
that
we
wyll
be
brefe
,
ye
shal
fyrste
take
awaye
the
superfluous
moysture
of
the
brayne
,
whiche
is
the
roote
and
fountayne
of
al
the
sayd
diseases
,
and
that
ye
may
do
foure
maner
of
waies
.
The
fyrst
is
obseruaunce
of
dyete
inclynyng
towarde
drynesse
,
&
to
auoide
all
fulnesse
of
meate
and
drynke
,
and
not
to
slepe
in
any
wyse
shortlye
after
meate
.
And
ye
muste
beware
that
ye
eate
no
vaporous
meates
,
nor
thyn
wyne
,
nor
drynke
moch
after
supper
.
And
yf
perchaunce
the
peyne
be
very
sharpe
,
it
shal
be
moche
holsome
to
the
pacient
,
to
abstaine
from
all
kyndes
of
wine
,
&
to
vse
hym selfe
to
smal
drinke
,
which
thyng
yf
he
can
not
do
,
then
let
hym
drinke
claret
wine
mixed
with
a
good
quantitye
of
water
.
The
second
is
to
purge
the
brayne
ones
a
moneth
,
wyth
the
one
halfe
of
pilles
of
cochies
,
and
an
other
halfe
of
pylles
assagareth
.
And
in
tyme
of
haruest
,
&
of
somer
,
with
pilles
sine
quibus
,
and
pilles
imperiall
,
whereof
ye
shal
gyue
one
dramme
the
night
before
the
full
moone
,
and
the
daye
folowing
ye
may
gyue
hym
to
eate
a
litle
broth
of
cicers
,
with
a
litle
quantitie
of
raisins
of
the
sunne
.
The
thyrde
is
to
represse
the
fumes
that
ascend
into
the
brayne
after
meate
,
which
thyng
may
wel
be
done
by
eatynge
of
a
lyttle
dredge
▪
made
of
anis
seed
and
coriander
.
The
fourth
is
to
perfume
the
braine
with
certeyne
thynges
confortatyue
,
as
for

thus
.
¶

pouder
,
and
perfume
therewith
stoupes
made
of
flaxe
or

,
and

the
head
.
And
when
ye
haue
by
thys
meanes
well
and
duly
comforted
the
braine
,
&
de●ended
of
,
the
original
cause
of
the
sayde
disease
,
ye
shall
procede
to

matter
conioynt
,
that
is
descended
vnto
the
synowes
,
and
ye
shal

Secondarily
,
ye

vnderstande
,
that

The
boke
of
children
.
TO
begyn
a
treatyse
of
the
cure
of
children
,
it
shoulde
seme
expedient
,
that
we
should
declare
somwhat
of
the
principles
,
as
of
the
generacion
,
the
beyng
in
the
womb
,
the
tyme
of
procedynge
,
the
maner
of
the
byrthe
,
the
byndynge
of
the
nauyl
,
settynge
of
the
members
,
lauatoryes
,
vnctions
,
swathinges
,
and
entreatementes
,
with
the
cyrcumstaunces
of
these
&
many
other
:
which
if
I
shoulde
reherse
in
particles
,
it
woulde
requyre
both
a
longer
tyme
,
and
encrease
into
a
greater
volume
.
But
forasmuch
as
the
most
of
these
thinges
are
very
trite
&
manifest
,
some
pertainyng
only
to
the
office
of
a
midwyfe
,
other
for
the
reuerence
of
the
matter
not
mete
to
be
disclosed
to
euery
vyle
person
:
I
entende
in
this
booke
to
let
them
all
passe
,
and
to
treat
onely
of
the
thinges
necessary
,
as
to
remoue
the
sicknesses
,
wherwith
the
tender
babes
are
oftentimes
afflicted
,
and
desolate
of
remedye
,
for
somuche
as
manye
doe
suppose
that
ther
is
no
cure
to
be
ministred
vnto
them
,
by
reason
of
theyr
weakenes
.
And
by
that
vayne
opinion
,
yea
rather
by
a
foolishe
feare
,
they
forsake
manye
that
myghte
be
well
recouered
,
as
it
shall
appeare
by
the
grace
of
god
hereafter
,
in
thys
lytle
treatyse
,
when
we
come
to
declaracion
of
the
medicines
.
In
the
meane
season
for
confinitye
of
the
matter
,
I
entend
to
write
somewhat
of
the
nourc●
and
of
the
milke
,
with
the
qualityes
,
&
complexions
of
the
same
,
for
in
that
consisteth
the
chief
point
and
summe
,
no●
only
of
the
mayntenaunce
of
health
,
but
also
of
the
fourmyng
or
infectyng
eyther
of
the
wytte
,
or
maners
,
as
the
Poet
Vergyl
when
he
would
describ●
an
vncurteys
,
churlysh
,
&
a
rude
condishioned
tyraunt
,
dydde
attribute
the
faute
vnto
the
gyuer
of
the
mylke
,
as
in
saying
thus
.
Nec

diua

author
,
Perfide
,
sed
duris
genuit
te

.
For
that
deuine
Poet
being
throughly
expert
in
the
priuities
of
nature
,
vnderstode
ryght
wel
how
great
an
alteracion
euery
thynge
taketh
of
the
humoure
,
by
the
whyche
it
hath
his
alymente
and
nourishinge
in
the
youthe●
whiche
thynge
also
was
considred
&
alleged
of
many
wyse
Philosophers
:
Plato
,
Theophrastus
,
Xenophon
,
Aristotle
,
and
Plinie
,
who
dydde
all
ascribe
vnto
the
nourcement
as
moch
effect
or
more
,
as
to
the
generacyon
.
And
Phauorinus
the
Philosopher
(
as
wryteth
Aulus
gelius
)
affirmeth
that
yf
lambes
be
nouryshed
with
the
milke

like
the

of

and
yf
kiddes
in

maner
sucke
vpon

,
the
heare
of
them
shal
be
soft
lyke

Wherby
it
doth
appeare
,
that
the
mylke
and
nouryshyng
hath
a
marueylous
effecte
in
chaunging
the
complexion
,
as
we
se
likewise
in
herbes
and
in
plantes
,
for
let
the
seed
or
ympes
be
neuer
so
good
&
pure
,
yet
yf
they
be
put
into
an
vnkynde
earth
,
or
watred
with
a
noughty
and
vnholsome
humour
,
either
they
come
not
vp
at
al
,
or
els
they
wyll
degenerat
and
turne
out
of
theyr
kinde
,
●o
the
scarse
it
may
appeare
from
whence
they
haue
ben
taken
:
according
to
the
verse
Pomaque
degenerant
,
succos
oblita
priores
.
Wherfore
as
it
is
agreing
to
nature
,
so
is
it
also
necessarye
&
comly
for
the
own
mother
to
nource
the
own
child
.
Whiche
yf
it
maye
be
done
,
it
shal
be
most
commendable
and
holsome
,
yf
not
ye
must
be
well
aduised
in
taking
of
●nource
,
not
of
yll
complexion
and
of
worse
maners
:
but
such
as
shal
be
sobre
,
honeste
and
chaste
,
well
fourmed
,
amyable
and
chearefull
,
so
that
she
may
accustome
the
infant
vnto
myrth
,
no
dronkard
,
vyeyous
nor
sluttysshe
,
for
suche
corruptethe
the
nature
of
the
chylde
.
But
an
honest
woman
(
suche
as
had
a
man
chyld
●ast
afore
,
)
is
best
not
within
two
monethes
after
her
delyueraunce
,
nor
approchyng
nere
vnto
her
time
againe
.
These
thinges
oughte
to
be
considred
of
euery
wyse
person
,
that
wyll
set
theyr
children
out
to
nource
.
Moreouer
,
it
is
good
to
loke
vpon
the
milke
,
and
to
se
whether
it
be
thicke
&
grosse
,
or
to
moch
thinne
and
watrye
,
blackysshe
or
blewe
,
or
enclynyng
to
rednesse
or
yelowe
,
for
all
suche
are
vnnaturall
and
euyll
.
Likewise
when
ye
taste
it
in
your
mouthe
,
yf
it
be
eyther
bytter
,
salte
,
or
soure
,
ye
may
we●
perceyue
it
is
vnholsome
.
That
mylke
is
good
,
that
is
whyte
and
sweete
,
and
when
ye
droppe
it
on
your
nayle

neyther
●eteth

vpon

when
ye
turne
it
downeward
,
but
that
whyche
is
betwene
bothe
is
beste
.
Somtime
it
chaunceth
that
the

wasteth
,
so
that
the

can
not
haue
sufficiente
to

tha●
the
paciente
cannot
feele
hys

moue

,
by
reason
of
the
vehement

in
such
case
the
chiefest
hel●

remedy
is
not
to
set

to

for
by

lightly
we
se
that
eueri

swowneth

manye

to
sette

in
a

whiche
immediatly
shal

An
argument
of
this
cure
ye
may
se
thus
.
When
an
apple
or
a
pere
is
frosen
in
the
winter
sette
it
to
the
fyer
,
and
it
is
destroyed
:
but
yf
ye
putte
it
into
colde
water
it
shall
as
well
endure
,
as
it
did
afore
,
whereby
it
doth
appere
,
that
the
water
resolueth
colde
,
better
with
hi●
moysture
,
than
the
fyer
can
do
by
reason
of
his
heate
:
for
the
water
relenteth
and
the
fyer
draweth

dryeth
as

When

wrytten

but
the
more
this

is
stamped
,
the
more
swete
and
herbelyke
it
sauoureth
:
therfore
it
can
not

:
and
besides
that
,
it
is
neuer
founde

Neyther

whych
wryteth
on

that
this

exceadeth

)
and
in
lyke
maner
he

Ye
maye
reade
these
thinges
in

boke
.
Capitul
.iii.
and
his
fifte
booke
of
the
Frenche
pockes
,
in

thyrd
chapter
:
where
he
doth
describe
thys
aforesaid
herbe
,
with
so
manyfeste
tokens
,
that
no
man
wil
doubt
it
to
be
water
betony
,
conferryng
the

duly
togither

Moreouer
he
nameth
in

a
brydge
where
it
growethe
in

in
greate
aboundaunce
,

is
called
of

Alabeueratore

in

the

knowe
both
the
place

,
doe
affyrme
playnely
,
it
is
our
water

And
where
as
he
allegeth
Dioscorides
in
climeno
,
which
by
contemplacion
of
both
hath
but
smal
affiniti
or
none
with
this
herbe
,
it
was
for
nothinge
els
but
lack
of
the
tonges
,
which
faute
is
not
to
be
so
highly
rebuked
in

of
his

,
applying
him selfe
more
in
the

wherin
in

then
he
did

rather
regarded
to
declare

afterward
put

This

exceding
good

without

in

The
chiefest
remedy
commended

outragious
sickenes
,
is
the
pouder
of
a
swallow
brent
wyth

whereof
the
paciente

thesame

Some

carye

Of

THe
cough
in

procedeth
either
of
a
cold

or
by
reason
of
reumes
,
descending
from
the
head
into
the
pipes
of
the

the
breaste
,
and
that
is
most
commonly
by
ouermuche
aboundaunce
of
milke
,
corruptyng
the
stomake
and
brayne
:
therefore
in
that
case
,
it
is
good
to
fede
the
chylde
wyth
a
more
slender
dyete
,
and
to
annoynte
the
head
ouer
,
with
hony
,
and
now
and
than
to
presse
his
toungue
wyth
youre
fynger
,
holdyng
downe
hys
heade
that
the
reumes
may
issue

for

AGainst

the

do
attribute

&
tempered
with
hony
,
for
the
chylde
to
swallowe
downe

I
find
also
that
the
mylke
of

newly
receiued

remedy

Of
weakenes

MAni
times

stomake
of

is
so
feble
that
it
cannot
retain
eyther
meat
or
drinke
,
in
which
case
,
and
for
al
debilitye
therof
,
it
is
verye
good

to
washe
the

with
warme

wherein
a
litle
muske
hathe
beene
dissolued
,
for
that
by
the
odour
and
natural
heate
geueth
a
comfort
to
all
the
spirituall
members
.
And
then
it
is
good
to
rost
a
quince
tender
,
&
with
a
litle
pouder
of
cloues
and
suger
to
geue
it
to
the
child
:
to
eat
conserua
quinces
,
with
a
litle
cinamome
and
cloues
,
is
synguler
good

Also
ye

it

Remedy
for

First

Yf

then
it
shal

a
pouder
to
geue

with
a
litle
suger

in

thus
.
Take

is
to

that

fluxe
is
neuer
to
bee
feared
afore

and
except

are

sufficient
ynough

The
pesyl
of

dryed

is
of
great
&
wonderful
effect
in
stoppyng
a
fluxe
.
Which
thing
also
is
approued
in
the
lyuer
of
a
beast
called
in
Englysshe
an
otter
.
The
stones
of
him
dronken
in

hath
healed

¶
Of
stoppyng
of
the
bellye
.
EVen
as
a
fluxe
is
daungerous
,
so
is
stoppynge
&
hardenesse
of
the
bellye
greuous
&
noyesome
to
the
chylde
,
and
is
often
cause
of
the
colycke
and
other
diseases
.
Wherfore
in
this
case
ye
must
alway
put
a
litle
hony
into
the
chyldes
meate
,
and
let
the
nource
gyue
hym
honye
to
sucke
vpon
her
fynger
,
and
if
this
wil
not
helpe
,
then
the
nexte
is
to
myxe
a
lytle
fyne
and
cleare
turpentine
,
with
honye
,
and
so
to
resolue
it
in
a
saucer
,
and
let
the
chylde
suppe
of
it
a
lytle
.
This
medicine
is
descrybed
of
Paulus
Agineta
,
and
recited
of
dyuers
other
as
a
thyng
very
holsom
and
agreing
to
the
nature
of
the
child
:
for
it
doeth
not
only
losen
the
bellye
without
grefe
or
daunger
,
but
doeth
also
purge
the
lyuer
and
the
longes
,
with
the
splene
and
kidneies
,
generally
comforting
al
the
spirituall
membres
of
the
bodye
.
The
gall
of
an
oxe
or
a
cowe
layed
vpon
a
cloute
on
the
nauylle
,
causeth
a
chyld
to

as
hote
as
he
maye
suffre

Yf
these
wyl
not
helpe
,
ye
shal
take
a
lytle
cotten
,
and
roll
it
,
and
dypped
in

put

drye
scabbe
or
a
lepry
spredyng
ouer
all
the
members
,
other
whiles
in
pushes
,
pimples
,
and
wheles
,
rennyng
with
much
corrupcion
and
matter
,
and
with
great
peine
of
the
face
and
throte
,
drines
of
the
toungue
,
horcenes
of
voyce
,
and
in
some
quiuerynge
of
the
hearte
with
swownyng
.
The
causes
of
these
euil
affeccions
,
are
rehersed
of
authours
,
to
be
chiefly
.iiii.
Fyrst
of
the
superfluities
which
might
be
corrupt
in
the
womb
of
the
mother
,
the
chylde
there
beyng
,
and
receiuinge
thesame
into
the
poores
,
the
whiche
at
that
tyme
for
debility
of
nature
,
could
not
be
expelled
,
but
the
chyld
encresyng
afterward
in
strength
,
bee
dryuen
out
of
the
veines
into
the
vpper
skynne
.
Secondarilye
it
maye
come
of
a
corrupt
generacion
,
that
is
to
saye
whan
it
was
engendred
in
an
euyll
season
,
the
mother
being
sycke
of
her
naturall
infyrmitye
,
for
such
as
are
begotten
that
tyme
verye
seldome
escape
the
disease
of
leprye
.
The
thyrde
cause
maye
bee
an
euyll
dyete
of
the
nourse
,
or
of
the
chylde
it self
,
whan
they
fede
vpon
meates
that
encrease
rotten
humours
,
as
mylke
and
fyshe
both
at
one
meale
,
lykewyse
excesse
of
eating
and
drinking
,
and
surfitte
.
Fourthly
this
disease
commeth
by
the
waye
of
contagion
,
whan
a
sycke
person
infecteth
an
other
,
and
in
that
case
it
hath
great
affinitie
with
the
pestilence
.
¶
Remedy
.
The
beste
and
most
sure
help
in
this
case
,
is
not
to
meddle
with
anye
kynde
of
medicines
,
but
to
let
nature
worke
her
operacion
,
notwythstandynge
yf
they
be
to
slowe
in
commyng
oute
,
it
shal
be
good
for
you
to
geue
the
childe
to
drinke
,
sodden
mylke
and
saffron
,
&
so
kepe
hym
close
,
and
warme
,
wherby
they
may
the
soner
issue
foorth
,
but
in
no
case
to
administer
any
thynge
that
myght
eyther
represse
the
swelling
of
the
skinne
,
or
to
coole
the
heate
that
is
within
the
members
.
For
yf
this
dysease
which
should
be
expelled
by
a
natural
accion
of
the
body
to
the
long
health
afterward
of
the
pacient
,
wer
by
force
of
medicine
cowched
in
againe
,
it
wer
euen
inough
to
destroy
the
child
Therfore
abide
the
ful
breaking
out
of
the
said
wheales
,
and
then
(
if
they
be
not
ripe
)
ease
the
childes
peyne
by
makynge
a
bath
of
holihock
,
dyl
,
camomil
&
fenel
:
if
thei
be
ripe
&
matter
,
them
take
fenel
,
wormewood
and
sage
,
and
seeth
them
in
water
,
to
the
thirde
part
,
wherin
ye
maye
bathe
him
with
a
fine
cloth
or
a
sponge
.
Alwaies
prouided
that
he
take
no
cold
duryng
the
time
of
his
sickenesse
.
The
wyne
wherein
fygges
haue
bene
sod
,
is
singuler
good
in
thesame
case
,
&
may
be
wel
vsed
in
all
times
&
causes
.
Yf
the
wheales
bee
outragious
and
great
,
with
much
corrosion
and
venime
,
some
make
a
decoction
of
roses
&
plantaine
,
in
the
water
of
oke
,
and
dissolue
in
it
a
litle
englishe
hony
&
camphore
.
The
decoction
of
water
betonye
,
is
approued
good
in
the
sayed
diseases
.
Likewise
the
ointment
of
herbes
,
wherof
I
made
mencion
in
the
cure
of
scabbes
,
is
exceding
holsome
after
the
sores
are
rype
.
Moreouer
it
is
good
to
droppe
in
the
pacientes
eyes
.v.
or
vi
.
tymes
a
daye
,
a
litle
rose
or
fenell
water
,
to
coumforte
the
syght
,
leste
it
be
hurte
by
continual
renning
of
matter
.
This
water
must
be
ministred
in
the
sommer
colde
,
&
in
the
winter
ye
ought
to
apply
it
luke warm
.
Thesame
rose
water
is
also
good
to
gargle
in
his
mouth
,
yf
the
chylde
bee
then
payned
in
the
throte
.
And
lest
the
condites
of
the
nose
should
be
stopped
,
it
shal
be
very
expedient
to
let
him
smel
often
to
a
sponge
wete
in
the
iuce
of
sauerye
,
strong
vineger
,
and
a
litle
rose
water
.
To
take
away
the
spottes
&
scarres
of
the
smal
pockes
and
measels
.
The
bloude
of
a
bull
or
of
an

is
much
commended
of
authours
to
be
annointed
hote
vpon
the

whether
it

Some

counsell
in

feuer
,
to
applye
a
colde
plaister
to

Take

,
mallowes
and

,
and
temper

asmuche
barly
floure
as
shal
bee
sufficiente
,
and
vse
it
.
Or
thus
,
and
more
better
in
a
weake
paciente
.
Take
drye
roses
and
pouder
them
,
then
temper
the
pouder
with
the
iuice
of
endiue
or
purcelane
,
rose
water
,
and
barly
floure
,
and
make
a
plaister
to
the
stomake
.
Item
an
ointmente
for
hys
temples
armes
and
legges
,
made
of
oyle
of
roses
,
and
populeon
,
of
eche
like
muche
.
A
good
medicine
for
the
ague
in
children
.
Take
plantaine
with
the
roote
,
and
wash
it
,
then
seeth
it
in
fayre
runnyng
water
to
the
thirde
parte
:
whereof
ye
shal
geue
it
a
draught
(
yf
it
bee
of
age
to
drinke
)
with
sufficiente
suger
,
&
laye
the
sodden
herbes
as
hote
as
maye
be
suffred
,
to
the
pulses
of
the
handes
and
fete
.
Thys
must
be
done
a
litle
afore
the
fit
,
&
afterward
couer
it
with
clothes
.
The
oyle
of
nettles
wherof
I
spake
in
the
title
of
stifnes
of
limmes
,
is
exceding
good
to
annointe
the
members
in
a
colde
shaking
ague
.
of
the
griefe
.
Yf
there
be
muche
inflammacion
or
heate
in
the
coddes
,
ye
may
make
an
oyntment
of
plantaine
,
the
whyte
and
yolke
of
an
egge
,
and
a
porcion
of
oyle
of
roses
,
styrre
them
wel
aboute
,
&
applye
it
to
the
grefe
twise
or
thrise
a
day
.
When
the
paine
is
intollerable
,
and
the
child
of
age
,
or
of
strong
complexion
,
yf
the
premisses
wil
not
helpe
,
ye
shal
make
a
plaister
after
this
sorte
.
Take
henbane
leaues
,
an
handful
and
an
halfe
,
mallowe
leaues
,
an
handfull
,
seeth
them
well
in
cleare
water
,
then
stampe
them
and
styrre
them
,
and
with
a
litle
of
the
brothe
,
beane
floure
,
barly
floure
,
oyle
of
roses
and
camomyl
sufficient
,
make
it
vp
and
set
on
the
swelling
luke warme
.
Henbane
as
Auicenne
sayth
,
is
excedynge
good
to
resolue
the
hardnes
of
the
stones
by
a
secret
qualitye
.
Notwithstandyng
,
yf
it
come
of
winde
,
it
shal
be
better
to
vse
the
sayde
plaisters
that
are
made
with
comine
,
for
that
is
of
a
singuler
operacion
in
dissoluyng
winde
,
as
affirmeth
Dioscorides
writyng
of

qualities
of

Of

IN
Greke
herisipelas
,

of
the
Latines
Sacer
ignis
,
oure
Englishe
women
call
it
the
fyre
of
Saynt
Anthony
,
or

,
it
is
an
inflammacion
of
members
wyth
exceding
burnynge

,
and
for
the
moste
parte
crepeth
aboue
the
skynne
or
but
a
lytle
depe
within
the
fleshe
.
It
is
a
grieuous
paine
,
&
may
be
likened
to
the
fyre
in
consuming
.
Wherefore
the
remedies
that
are
good
for
burning
are
also
very
holesome
here
in
this
case
.
And
fyrste
the
grene
ointment
of

described
in

is
of
good
effect
also
in

that

happen
much
inconuenience
in
a
great
burnyng
(
but
in

it
coulde
not
be
so
daungerous
:
)
wherfore
the
best
is
when
ye
see
a

eyther
brent
or
scalded
,
as
is
sayde
afore
.
Take
a
