other hawkes who hauing the whole circle of the earth and compasse of the aire wherein to raunge passe and pervse at her pleasure yet being by the art and skil of man taken from the aire it hath also beene taught how by your skill and industrie to abate though not the hawtinesse of her courage for that remaines yet the greatnesse of her wild and furious stomacke and to alter and change the setled order and course of nature and by your artfull endeauour to draw her as it were by constraint and yet willinglie to yeeld vnto you and to your directions being content to submit her selfe vnto your custodie and inure her selfe to your companie with great boldnesse and familiaritie and likewise how by diet stones and casting to prepare her stomacke whereby shee may be made fit to flie and so to guide and rule her according to the course of her condition during her flying time Now it will not bee amisse for mee to speake something concerning the order and manner of bathing and weathering your haggard wherein I will brieflie shew you my aduise and counsell First as concerning bathing of your Haggard I my selfe haue had verie few that would euer bathe at all so long as they haue continued with me sound but whensoeuer I haue proued them barefaced abroad hauing fitted them with a reasonable * Neither so little as hunger should prouoke them nor so much that superfluitie should preuent them gorge for the purpose they would be so displeasing to me with their vnrulinesse and extreame bateing that before I could conuenientlie take them to my fist againe I haue perceiued them to receiue more harme that way then they would haue beene the better for their bathing therefore when triall shall be made of anie such hawke and that you find shee is not disposed thereunto it shall be better for you to keepe her on your fist * The aire then to wrong her to no end for those kinde of hawkes although you labour them the first yeere truelie in their making and haue by your diligence wrought them to your owne content hauing made them so familiar that they will sit abroad bare faced hard by you when they are emptie yet if you shall absent your selfe for triall you shall find they will be vnquiet and so distemper themselues that when you shall appeare and come into their sight againe they will striue and doe themselues great harme and surelie I had rather my owne hawke should flie two or three flights being emptie then shee should bate or striue once in her lease her bodie being full of meat These kind of hawkes being fittest for the riuer and most commonlie flowne thereunto are oftentimes with killing Fowle drawne into the same being wetted manie times with waters and raine likewise the time of yeere being winter wholie and sharplie inclined to cold and wet all which are great impediments and hindrances vnto the bathing of Haggards and it is in vaine to offer it vnto them in that season otherwise I haue obserued often that after two or three mewes and towards their declining age through extraordinarie actions of vntimelie heates or surfets they haue desired and sought for bathing and growne to more quietnesse abroad barefac't which inclination in them will be easilie found and descried then is it meet for you not to neglect occasion but when the weather will permit you shew her the water if shee doe bath let her drie her selfe abroad if it be faire and the weather temperat otherwise let her haue the aire of the fire with measure and come no more abroad that day nor night but set her vpon a verie warme pearch and from the aire otherwise it might be very hurtfull to the hawke for indeed there would be no mixture of fire and aire both in the drying of their hawke for * The hawke that is sound bathes seldome yet is shee hot by nature the hawke that is not sound baths often being more then naturally hot by reason of her infirmitie the one it is naturall and kind it drieth the feathers tempereth and seasoneth the body and cooleth the same being hot by nature but much hotter by distemperature which appeareth by the bathing of some * The fire and is proued by the not bathing of others whereby the difference between the sound hawke and the vnsound hawke is discerned The other of necessity must needs be hurtfull because in her first creation it is affirmed of her and al other fowles that their residence and continuall aboade was allotted them in the aire as a place and element most fit and correspondent to their naturall compositions and therefore the fire being their opposit element cannot chuse but bee verie hurtfull in regard it doth not onely drie the feathers of the hawke but also pierceth into the bodie and heateth it most vnnaturallie therefore when it is vsed vpon necessity there ought great heed to be taken as I haue said before for certainely it is neither good nor wholsome for your hawke either wet or dry to receiue much heat from the fire Thus for breuities sake I omit to speake anie more of bathing these kind of hawkes and doe referre the same to euery mans particular opinion and generallie to the iudgement of all good and auncient Faulconers whose long experienc't practise I would not draw with in the limits of prescription but leaue them to vse their owne hawkes as they through obseruation and iust occasion shall find it conuenient CHAP. IX The manner how to weather your Hawke THus hauing spoken somewhat concerning the bathing of your Haggard I will now speake some thing of her weathering where you must note by the way that many Hawkes of the * same kinde are taken out of the next very young Fawlcons whereby they doe altogether forget their naturall dam that bred them and betake themselues to loue and grow fond on them or him that doe foster or bring them vp also there be others of a more base and bastard kinde that out of the same naure will very easily be brought to familiaritie with the man not in the house onely but also abroad hooded or vnhooded nay many of them will be more gentle and quiet when they are vnhooded then when they are hooded for if a man doe but stirre or speake in their hearing they will crie and bate as though they did desire to see the man Likewise some of them being vnhooded when they see the man will cowre and crie shewing thereby their exceeding fondnes and fawning loue towards him These kind of hawkes may you doe with what you will vsing them at your pleasure hooded or vnhooded * Marke the difference betweene the Haggard the Eyas and while shee is in your hand shee will be alwaies best and most quiet when shee is full gorged and bare faced These hawkes being vnseasoned in their bodies by reason they are debarred not onely from the continuall benefit
Vnicornes horne in powder or otherwise of Harts horne and with this I haue most assuredlie cured a cast that was most cruellie bitten and torne CHAP. XXXX Another very good medicine against the biting of a Mad dog BEe sure at the very first to make water into the wound Then take some of the keenest onions you can possiblie get and beat them as small as may be then take some salt and honie and put into the same thing to the vnions and there beat and mingle all together and make thereof a salue and applie it vnto the bitten place and this wil take away the paine and sorenes and destroy the poison and the Hawke shall doe well CHAP. XXXXI To cure any new wound that may befall vnto your Hawke by accident TAke the downe that commeth of cardus benedictus when the seed is ripe and applie vnto it onely and it will cure it without anie paine CHAP. XXXXII. To kill the ranckenesse and itching that sometimes will bee in Hawkes bloody feathers which is the cause shee puls them forth in that estate SOme Faulconers when they find their Hawkes or Hawke thereunto disposed wil presentlie to preuent the same ill qualitie that shee is prouoked vnto all to balme or annoint her feathers and place where they grow with some kind of bitter and noisome thing but that onelie will not serue the turne because as I shewed shee is vnkindly vrged thereunto thorough a rancke and itching quallitie that the same feathers are possest withall by meanes of some blow or bruse they haue by mischance taken in their breeding and growing and to cure the same take a pint of vineger of the best and into the same put two rasins of ginger grated to dust and let that boile a good space with two or three branches of rew and when the vineger is much wasted put in as much Allam as a wal-nut and halfe a spoonefull of honnie and let them all boile euen a little Then take it of and whensoeuer you haue occasion to vse it warme a little of it and with a feather lay it on that or those feathers that is amisse And this will take the rancknes and itching quite away besides if the feather haue beene much bruzed or crased so it be crosse cracked it will heale and make it so sound that it shall shoot forth and doe well againe Here followeth a note of the temperature and vertue of those those things that I haue written of before and commended vnto you to be powerfull medicinable and fit to be vsed in phisicke for the amending and curing of such infirmities and diseases as doe belong vnto all Hawkes ALoes that is to say the iuice which is vsed in phisicke is moderately hot and that in the first degree but drie in the third extreame bitter yet without biting It is also of an emplasticke or clammie quallity and something binding Aloes is of the number of those medicines which are purging and it purgeth such excrements as be in the stomacke the first veines and the nearest passages for his purging force passeth not farre beyond the stomacke and it purgeth more effectually if it be not washed but if it be washed it strengthens the stomacke the more Also it is an enemy to all manner of putrifaction and defendeth the body from corruption Rubarbe Rubarbe is hot and drie in the second degree and is of a substance and temperature partly binding and drying and partly thin hot and purging Rubarbe is abstersiue and purging and doth chiefly respect the diseases of the liuer and place of kidneis opening the obstructions thereof and is good also for all gripings and inward gnawing of the guts the infusion therof in some distilled water is more to be commended and rather to be vsed then the substance because the substance leaues a binding qualitie behind it Rubarbe though it be of nature hot yet it may be very safely giuen in those diseases of the liuer which proceede from heat as well as those which proceede from cold Agricke is hot in the first degree and drie in the second it cutteth maketh thin clenseth and taketh away obstructions and stoppings Agricke is abstersiue and purging it is good for the oppilations of the liuer and Kidneis for the shortnes of the breath phisicke and decaying of the longs it purgeth from the stomacke grosse and tuffe humors and killeth wormes you may giue it in this manner infuse it in white wine with a slice or two of ginger of the whitest and draw your Hawkes meat thorow it and feed withall you may also giue it in powder and it is very good you may also infuse it in faire running water and so vse it when you haue need or in any of your former coole waters Rewe Rew is hot and drie in the latter end of the third degree it is of thin and subtle parts it wasteth and consumeth wind it cutteth and digesteth grosse and tuffe humours Rew is good for the gripings in the body paines in the stomacke difficulty of breathing shortnes of breath which proceeds of cold and it is a good remedy for the stopping of the longes Saffron Saffron is hot in the second degree and drie in the first it is a little a stringenâ— or binding and yet it hath a certaine force to concoct Saffron strengtheneth the heart concocteth crude or rawe humours of the stomacke it openeth the lungs and remoueth obstructions or stoppings Myrre Myrre is hot and drie in the second degree it is the gumme of a tree that groweth in Arabia it is abstersiue and exsiccatiue it killeth wormes it is good for the stomacke and resisteth putrifaction this is to be giuen in powder Musterd seed Musterd-seed is hot and drie in the fourth degree it healeth maketh thinne and draweth forth Musterd-seed purgeth the head helpes digestion warmes the stomacke prouoKes appetite and is good for all shortnesse of winde and stoppings in the stomacke with tuffe fleam that falles from the head and braine and preuailes much against all cold causes of the body Wormewood Worm-wood is hot in the second degree and drie in the third it is of a nature loosening cleansing and comforting Worme-wood purgeth humours from the stomack and therefore it is good to be giuen after a surfet for it doth mightily refresh the stomack and bowels after large feeding it killeth the wormes in the bowels and resisteth putrefaction Cloues Cloues are hot and drie in the third degree Cloues strengthen the stomacke the liuer and heart and helpes digestion it is to be giuen in powder Liuer-woort Liuer-woort is of a temper colde and drie and something binding The water of this hearbe is to be vsed and is a singular remedie against all diseases of the liuer that proceede of heat for it dooth mightily coole all inflammation of the same Sorrell Sorrell is moderately cold and drie the distilled water of this hearbe of the Iuice is to be vsed it is specially good for all heate in the
verie subiect and apt to be lost on little or no cause at all And as they differ in the eie of man and their ages disagree so is the one more subiect to be lost then the other by reason of their difference The deed of generation is the verie cause they leaue these countries for whereby they are prouoked to repaire into those places of the world that bee most fit and conuenient for them to breed in The old Haggard being taken there or elsewhere hauing formerlie bred and brought vp manie yong must needs at that time beset downe and fed vp with hot and bloodie meat Somwhat before our Ladie day because nature hauing long had his course prouokes her with greater violence to prepare herselfe vnto her kinde with purpose to be gone which course of nature if you should restraine and seeke by force to make her serue your turne she would with a longing languishing desire consume her selfe to naught The intermewed Haggard is more able and strong to resist the course of nature because it is not so violent in her as in the former yet is shee subiect to the same at that time of the yeare Neuerthelesse you neede not scare the losse of her so much in regard she is not moued so much to increase her kinde for want of yeares to increase the same therefore you may bouldlie flie this hawke something longer then the other and hold her subiect to your will The passenger soare-Faulcon is a more choice and tender hawke Of the soare Hawke by reason of her youth and tendernesse of age and therefâ—re she must be more carefullie kept and better fed theâ— the other mewed hawkes because they are more harâ— of ward yet she will be as soone reclaimd and made a certaine hawke and rather sooner then the other if she be well vsed and respectiuely handled And in those places where flying may be had shee may bee found longer by a moneth then anie of the other CHAP. II. Heere followeth certaine necessary instructions to bee obserued of euery Faulconer before he doth put his hawke into the Mew which is a preparing or making readie of your Hawke for the same THus flying time being past it will now bee conuenient to prepare your hawke for the Mew for the performing whereof this ensuing rules will not be found vnprofitable You must beware and take heede at the first when you doe purpose and also begin to feede vp your hawke and couet to fill her full of flesh that she be not her own caruer in her diet nor that you doe giue vnto her no great gorge your selfe for if you doe it is ten to one she will ouerfeede and surfeit on the same as you shall plainely perceiue if you will marke with obseruation that which followeth Whereas you haue perceiued that your hawke all her flying time hath continued with you sound and healthfull and by the mending of your hand a little towards her with good meane somthing more then ordinarie she would alwaies thriue of her flesh and increase in health to your liking yet now at the setting downe and time of rest you doe out of your loue and to the intent to fill her full of flesh giue her good meate and full gorges euerie daie for the space of a seauenight or a fortnight togeather it may be longer and yet in all that time finde small amendement or none at all this no doubt will make you wonder that your cost and care takes no greater effect but that you finde your Hawke rather worse then better by it for vnlesse you know the reason of it it cannot choose but seeme strange vnto you I haue had this question propounded vnto me diuerse times concerning Hawkes in this estate which although I am well assured euerie good Faulconer of time and experiecne can iudge sufficientlie not onely of the cause but also of the remedie and how to preuent it yet in regard there are manie keepers of Hawkes doe lack that knowledge and for want thereof haue spoiled and surfeited manie good hawkes I will for their instructions speake more at large concerning this matter Whereas before during the time of her flying your Hawke did by chance now and then meete with some good meate more then ordinarie as somtime the flesh of Fowle or the like taken by her selfe or otherwise bestowed on her by you in regard of her good deserts vpon the which it may bee you haue seene her feede hastelie or with greedinesse and yet you haue not perceiued that she hath been the worse but the better for the same From whence you must vnderstand that she commonlie did win that with labour of her body and the vse and exercise of her wings which was a great helpe and furtherance to her disgesture besides the Faulconer being expert in his art will out of his discretion either in the morning or at euening after such extraordinarie feede consider what danger it might procure and so giue her stones to preuent the gathering or ingendering of anie superfluous glut or humor which might thereby offend her and so with diligent care continue a moderate and meane diet after But now you cease and leaue off from all those practices and obseruations of the flying time and your onlie pretence and purpose is to giue rest and good feed vnto your Hawke to the end to raise and fill her full of flesh whereby she may be made ready for the Mew And to the'nent she should prosper and be brought to that perfection you doe at her first setting downe giue her as much as she list to take into her gorge thinking thereby to effect your purpose the sooner but therein you shall soone finde that you haue deceiued your selfe for your Hawke being newlie taken from flying at which time you kept her with a good stomack and sparing diet being now suffered to take what she will doth out of the heat and greedinesse of her stomacke fill her selfe full vpon the sodaine that for want of digesture which she must needes lack by reason of her continuall rest hauing no exercise nor other meanes to procure the same her sodaine fulnes doth so suffocate and stop the pooers which are then open and other passages of nutriment that she will be presently stunted by those obstructions and not onely be forced to stand long at a staie before she can be recouered but many times she will languish fal into manie surfets and diseases by reason of the same Therefore to auoid these inconueniences you must keepe your Hawke all the flying time as cleane as possible you may then at her setting downe keepe your wonted course in feeding twice a daie and as neer as you can with hot and bloodie meate and no more in quantity then you shall finde her well able to endure put awaie and be sure to take heede of suffering her to glut her selfe too full at the first and by vsing this order you shall
cleansed foorth but doth put her to labour in that estate which ingendreth and causeth heat extraordinarie in the stomaek which will appeare in the mouth throate and other parts as I haue formerly shewed Moreouer when as you shall draw a full Hawke and haue not an especiall care to take sufficient time to inseame her in the other parts and fleshlie substance of her body outwardly as well as to purge and clense her within you shall doe her as much wrong for although the pannell wil be sat in the highest degree hauing as it were a leafe of the like fatty substance within it yet hath the Faulconer a meanes and direct course with cleane feed casting and stones continually to practise and worke withall whereby in a reasonable time he may dissolue stir and remoue the grease glut or anie other imperfect humor the stomacke is subiect vnto Yet although in the viewe of your owne eye and in your owne knowledge by her mutes castings and other signes you doe perceiue that she is perfectly cleane in her inward parts if you doe then suffer her to take any heate at all it is as much as her life is worth therefore take heede of it remember that the whole solid body is of greater substance then the pannell is and harboureth a great deale more fatnesse then it possible can doe neither can it be inseamed nor that which is troublesom taken from it so soone nor by such meanes as the other may but you must tarry for it and giue it moderate labour in luring and training it easily and gently at the first to temper it withall and so by degrees you shall well inseame her in all parts and breath her and with cleane and good feede keepe her full of flesh and free from all diseases haue her ready and altogeather fit to doe you seruice By this you may plainely perceiue how much some men are deceiued in the inseaming and flying of their Hawkes who thinke that so soone as they wil feede with a good stomacke and make good castings that then after two or three times luring The fruits of hastines they may be bold to put them to seruice but it is not so And let them vnderstand that most commonly hast and rashnes breed repentance for there is no man that can make a Hawke that is drawne from the Mew ready to be flowne vnder fiue or six weekes if she be a full Hawke for if he doe he deales not artificially with her but shall hazard her greatly and what folly is it in that man that to couet and get one fortnight at the beginning will endanger himselfe to loose all the latter end and his Hawke for euer for it is most certaine and doth commonly fall out so And although such Hawkes doe escape and liue that yeere yet are they neuer worth any thing after The substance of the heart and of the liuer wil bee black the body in diuers places will haue white specks And if they so chance to die you shall find that their greace was ouer-het for it will lie baked blew to their sides and other places of their body and their heart and liuer will be hory and the places where they lay which will sufficiently testifie the nature of the griefe Therefore note thus much that what shew of cleannes soeuer you doe find in your Hawke by her casting mutes or otherwise although you haue taken neuer such paines with her by casting cleane feed and stones to purge and clense her inwardly You must giue no such traines that may cause your Hawke to labor too much at the first Neither must loose her before shee haue breath and lightnes yet doe not beleeue that shee is perfectly inseamed nor will not be vntil shee doe come to the exercise of her wings and labour of her body after which shee will breake greace and by degrees inseame throughly and be sure that her labor at first be not immoderat for if it be it will ingender griefe but it must be in a meane and moderat manner Also you must giue her liberty by degrees to stirre her wings and vse her body that there may be no heat excessiuely taken vntill shee be throughly inseamed and then as I haue shewed you shee may be weary with flying but shee will neuer take harme This may shew vnto him that is experienc't plainely and giue instruction to the ignorant as truely that the inward parts and bowels of the Hawke may by the skill of man and those meanes which art and nature hath prouided be wrought and brought to perfection before the body be answerable or ready The inward parts and bowels may be purged made cleane with washt meat casting and stones The whole and fleshly substance of her body must haue carriage on horsebacke on foot be laboured with luring and training to inseame it withall make it light before shee be flowne or put to hard labor Measurable moisture is natural and kind for all Hawkes to haue A good obseruation euermore to be mindfull to preserue health and therefore as they in substance and kind be all one so must they not be diuided by the Faulconer in his art and practise but vsed and prepared though by seuerall meanes yet altogether as one for otherwise one part or member may be made a preparatiue for destruction to all the rest CHAP. XV. How to auoid slime glut and the like imperfections in your Hawke WHereas all Hawkes are euermore subiect vnto moist watrish humors ingendring increasing in their inward parts which humors doe proceed and are deriued partly from the element that raineth ouer them or otherwise hath most mastery in them which kind of glut or slime being of the nature of water and in tast altogether waterish is the chiefest thing that groweth and increaseth in her inward parts and so long as it continues in a moderate and temperate quantity it is naturall and good but when it ouerfloweth and abounds too much then it is bad and ingenders sicknes Therefore as the wild Hawke by nature doth know her remedy and how to stay and correct the increasing of that humor which if it were suffered to aboūd would hurt and ouercharge her therefore shee defers no time to preserue and keep her health but euery day saith or may say vnto her selfe Phisician helpe thy selfe or els thou must perish and so shee detracts no time but this day prouides for the next And when shee feeds with the most greediest appetite euen then shee remembers to day that shee must purge to morrow And therefore as shee eats no meat whereof proceeds not something inconuenient that in time may hurt and annoy her stomacke so doth shee also neuer faile carefully and moderatly to take plummage with it We ought to misse no time with our best indeuors for casting to clense her selfe of some part thereof the next morning thereby staying the
euery way as first in her castings they will haue seldome any store of moisture in them but it will be froathy and roping her mutes will be thicker then ordinarie and shee will be often dropping of them and seldome slice from her which is an euill signe shee will seeme to be subiect to the cray and the frownce her foot and Seare wil be of a dead colour and her pounces will shew the like for the Iâ—t and glassie die thereof will be vanished and gone away and shee will be subiect and disposed vnto much bowsing weathering and bathing Neuerthelesse if this vnnatuarall heat haue not seated it selfe or planted it in other secret places about the lights reines or other of those priuy parts in white specks or such setled curnels like vnto the mazels of a swine there is no doubt but it may be recouered The which to effect you must take the distilled water or waters of borage and buglose together into the which put halfe a dozen sliced cloues to infuse and with the same water on or both you must feed with all and giue it once a day vnto your Hawke with her meat affording her quiet rest and ease withall that shee may haue no cause to increase the disease Also you must be sure as I haue already forewarned you to be circumspect in her diet that it may be of light and coole meat and small gorges thereof and this will amend and helpe her for otherwise there is no Hawke of what kinde soeuer whose griefe proceedes of heate but that one great gorge increaseth the same and preuenteth the best meanes or remedy that you can vse for the amendement of the same CHAP. XVI To kill and destroy the wormes in the body to heat and quicken a cold stomacke that doth not disgest and indue well but thorough the same ingendereth Fellanders and other grosse humors and imperfections in the pannell and guts THis remedy which here I doe commend vnto you is an old medicine the which hath beene vsed a long time and many yeeres agoe and surely what obseruation or vse other men haue made of it I know not neither am here able to recite it but for my selfe I haue vsed and obserued it and haue certainely found it to be a most speciall and present remedy for such things as here I doe commend it and whereas it hath beene aduised to be giuen out of oile steeped for the same I cannot commend it because I haue not vsed it but for trial long agoe when as then I dislik't it and euer since haue left it But in this manner I haue often and alwaies secretly vnto my selfe giuen it when I haue gathered by such signes as I obserued that my Hawke hath beene in this sort diseased At that time of the yeere when wormewood is growne vp If shee will not bowse faile not the next morning after she hath cast her garlicke to giue her stones with a spoonefull of faire water and you shall see her to purge her self vpwards of slime and glut verie much and is moistest then must you prouide a glasse full of the iuice thereof and into the same put a score of cloues of garlicke cleane pilled and pierced thorough in diuers places and there preserue them close and when you haue ocassion to vse them take forth one cloue or two and a little drie them outwardly and so giue them vnto your Hawke at a night with her supper vsing this order for a weeke together and faile not to let her haue water offered her in a dish euery morning or otherwise as you find her condition Then leaue of your garlicke and euery night after when you doe giue her her supper role two or three bits of meat in musterd seed and giue her and let her casting be euer of plummage you may bruse the seed a little if you will but I hold it more naturall to giue it whole and it is a thing more precious then euer it hath beene imagined to be giuen vnto any Hawke It purgeth the head helps disgestion warmes the stomacke prouokes appetite and preuailes much against all cold causes of the body and whensoeuer you giue your Hawke any traine newly taken from the field be not curious to let her take her pleasure on the crop The vertue of musterd-seed for there is the musterd seed most naturall and kind and there is no better phisicke And whereas it hath beene euer thought a thing vnpossible at anie time or by anie meanes to kill and destroy the wormes of the backe I dare vndertake that if it be possible for any man to know assuredly when his Hawke hath them and for the number to ghesse what store of them that they shall neuer encrease together nor grow after but that garlicke and wormewood shall forstall and correct them nay altogether destroy and wast them and that Hawke that is vsed often vnto it shall neuer die of them for if it be possible for any Hawke to draw by her breath in and vnto her any poisoned infection to rot and kill her wherefore then should shee not as well thorough the same passage sucke vp that which is of force to destroy the wormes and so preserue her I see no reason to the contrary knowing that the bellowes draweth so farre as vnto themselues sauours both good and ill and from them by dispersed vaines all along that leades vnto the backe and other places whereas those wormes doe lie is way whereby may passe a senting remedy for to destroy that maladie or infection of those wormes These worms are to be found in blancke plumed Hawks neither shall there be in any other place any wormes able to abide or indure it but it will correct and kill them vnlesse it be those which are the least in shew substance but greatest in strength of nature and of whom I haue already spoken in the former part of this booke and shewed there vnto what sort of Hawkes they doe belong by nature and kind doing no hurt at all The lunges doe draw a breath whereby to coole the heart as it doth lie Also the liuer by that same aire preserued is both fresh and faire But when these bellowes doe decay then health from both doth fade away CHAP. XVII Another very good scowring to giue vnto any imperfect Hawk that is perceiued to haue Fellanders or other imperfections proceeding from the weakenesse of the stomacke TAke some clarified butter that hath beene preserued in rosewater In this is loofing and cleansing of humors it comforteth and drieth superfluous humors it killeth wormes and resisteth putrifaction then take the leafe of rew and of wormewood of equall portions and with a sharpe knife mince them very exceeding small together then temper and mingell them together with browne suger candy and when you haue so done and roled and made fit to be giuen then into a pellet you must put a little of the powder of mirrie and
