THE HONEST AND PLAINE DEALING FARIER OR A PRESENT REMEDY FOR curing diseases and hurts in Horses Gathered and written as well for the good â—f any that will practise it as for my self there being nothing contained therein but what is of my owne experience and practise By THOMAS GRYMES LONDON Printed by Wilâ— Loutes for Andrew Kâ—â—â—be dwelling by St Margarets hill in long Southwâ—cks 1636. A GOOD AND necessary Booke for curing diseases and hurtes in Horses gathered and written for the good of any that will practise there being nothing contained therein but what is of my owne experience and practice and whereof I have had good proffe And first for diseases in the head of a Horse HEADACHE which sometime commeth of collerick humours bred in the braine or of some extreme heate or by some stroke or such like the signe of all such infirmities The Horse will bee heavie hang downe his head and his eyes will be swolne dim and waterish Remedies for the same Squise the iuyce of ground-Ivie into his nose thriles it is good or burn the blades of Garlick and Frankensence in a Chafindish and hold the horse nose over it that the smoke may goe into the same this will purge his head marveilously and doe this so often as yee shall thinke needfull or let him blood in the pallate of his mouth if the signe be not there or neesing powder and pepper brayed together and blowne into his nose with a quill is also very good For watering of a Horses eyes Which may come to a young Horse by eating over-dry and hard meats The remedies Let him blood on his temple vaine or on the vaine under his eye or on the necke which aswageth the humours of the whole body and if it have continued long then wash it with the iuyce of planteine but if it come of a stroke then make a cake or a ball of pimpernell and swines dung dry it in an oven â—ill it will bee powder and put of that powder in the horse eye for â—he hawe or as it is commonly â—alled the hoakes I need not write very man almost can cure the same For a Peable in a Horse eye Take Tuty a Pothecary hath it bray it and blow it into he â—horse eye this Tâ—ty 〈…〉 stone and if you cannot have it then take white copperous and use it in the same manner For the Lampas Sometimes I use to draw out the Lampas with a crochet or crooked Iron made red hot that it doth not bleed after and then with a lanceâ— lets it bleed and to heale the sore againe take a little honie a little peper temper them with a quantitie of vinegar boyle them together a little space on the fire and therewith annoint the sore three or four dayes together or to let him blood with a fleame or a knifes point on both sides of his mouth but beware lest yee cut the veine which comes right downe the pallate of his mouth for so hee may bleed to death and if ye feare he shall bleed too much give him a little malte to eate very small ground There is a malady in a Horse mouth that will hinder him to eate his meate There bee little small or round swellings in the mouth and lips of a horse which will make him let his meate fall out of his mouth as though hee had the Lampas clip them away with a paire of Cissers and rub the places with a little salt A malady in a Horse belly much like the botts I call it Tronches ye may know the evill by these tokens he will ye downe often and offer to welter or tumble hee will offer to gnaw and bite at his sides he will strike ahis belly with his hinder feete and his sides will flacke and beate sore and in a short time it will pierce thorow his maw then hee shall bee in great danger to die but to helpe him at the first Take out the guts of a young Pullet make your horse head bee holden up and put them into his throte while they bee warme and make him swallow them downe doe thus three mornings together and let him neither eate nor drinke after for the space of foure or five houres Or take a peck of Rie steepe it in water a day and a night then take it forth and lay it on a dry earthen floore as much as yee can from the winde and let it come or burgion there as malt then dry it in an oven or on a Kilne and when it is dry give thereof to your horse two handfulls for his first meale in a morning and thus doe five or sixe mornings one after another Helpes for the sinewes if they bee either pricked or cut asunder If a sinew be pricked take these hot things meat oyle swines grace honie of each alike putting thereto powder of Vares make a plaister of all together and lay it to the sinew dresse it so every day till it be whole and if the flesh be piersed or cut thâ—â— boyle beane meale and barly meâ—â—e in wine with a quantity of honie till it be plaister thick and lay that on the sore Another yet for the same which takes away all aking of sinewes brused or pricked Take crops of walwort mallow leaves of each two handfull of lily roots a handfull stampe them well altogether and boyle them on the fire in a quantity of hony till they bee thick like a plaister and lay to the sore twice on the day reasonable hot But if a sinew be cut overtwart so as it is not likely to grow together againe then take groundwormes the greater the better stamp them with a little hony then warme it a little in a pan and with a cloth bind it to the cutting every day or every second day once till it be whole and let not the sinews that are pricked or cut be wet with any thing but the medicines if yee can avoid it Of the enchafing of a Horse neck or other place of him which may come by heat of blood after great travell which by rubbing against a wall or a tree will cause scabs rise in his neck among the haire sometime on the saddle place to helpe this Take unquenched Lime a quantity such like of beanes ashes or of beane straw then take old pisse set it on the fire till it boyle and skime it cleane and while it is hot put into it your lime and ashes mingle them well together let them stand so till the next day then take the cleare into another vessell and every day once wash the malady with a quantity thereof made hot When an horse halteth to know whether the harme be in the shoulder knee or in his foot and to helpe him If the harme bee in his foot hee will forbeare to tread straight but even upon the point of his foot and he will beare it farre from him and make semblance as though hee would fall often he will make like signes
