contusion_n will_v be_v concoct_v and_o digest_v and_o the_o wound_n desiccate_v to_o answer_v to_o this_o i_o will_v send_v he_o to_o learn_v the_o nature_n and_o quality_n of_o suppurative_n in_o

he_o ought_v to_o consider_v the_o cause_n the_o order_n and_o the_o vigent_fw-la moreover_o i_o will_v willing_o ask_v of_o he_o if_o he_o can_v heal_v that_o wound_n make_v by_o gunshot_n unless_o thâ—_n contusion_n be_v first_o suppurate_n i_o think_v not_o and_o herein_o i_o refer_v myself_o to_o the_o judgement_n of_o all_o good_a practitioner_n and_o therefore_o our_o basilicon_n and_o oleum_fw-la catellorum_fw-la and_o other_o such_o suppurative_a medicine_n be_v proper_a to_o suppurate_a such_o wound_n as_o be_v make_v by_o gun-shot_n second_o he_o will_v have_v oxycratum_fw-la put_v into_o the_o wound_n to_o staunch_v the_o flux_n of_o blood_n and_o if_o by_o that_o mean_v it_o can_v be_v stop_v to_o apply_v thereon_o a_o medicine_n make_v of_o the_o white_a of_o a_o egg_n bowl_n armoniacke_n rose-vinegar_n and_o salt_n i_o leave_v you_o to_o consider_v whither_o such_o like_a remedy_n have_v power_n to_o stay_v the_o flux_n of_o blood_n or_o no_o they_o be_v put_v with_o in_o the_o wound_n true_o they_o will_v rather_o make_v it_o flow_v more_o because_o that_o the_o vinegar_n be_v of_o a_o gnaw_a and_o subtle_a quality_n cause_v pain_n defluxion_n inflammation_n &_o other_o evil_a accident_n as_o i_o have_v know_v by_o experience_n and_o i_o know_v no_o chirurgean_n that_o have_v be_v exercise_v in_o his_o art_n will_v follow_v such_o a_o kind_n of_o practice_n lest_o he_o find_v himself_o deceive_v in_o the_o end_n to_o this_o purpose_n i_o do_v remember_v that_o i_o have_v a_o moor_n in_o cure_n who_o belong_v to_o mounsieur_fw-fr the_o earl_n of_o roissy_n who_o be_v hurt_v before_o bologne_n by_o a_o english_a man_n who_o give_v he_o a_o wound_n with_o a_o lance_n through_o the_o back_n whereupon_o to_o stay_v the_o flux_n of_o blood_n i_o put_v into_o the_o wound_n a_o restrictive_a wherein_o there_o be_v vinegar_n instead_o of_o another_o but_o present_o after_o he_o come_v to_o i_o again_o tell_v i_o that_o he_o think_v he_o have_v have_v fire_n in_o his_o arm_n which_o cause_v i_o to_o dress_v he_o anew_o and_o to_o change_v the_o medicine_n of_o his_o wound_n and_o to_o apply_v the_o say_a restrictive_n upon_o it_o i_o believe_v that_o this_o physician_n know_v not_o so_o much_o otherwise_o i_o esteem_v he_o so_o honest_a a_o man_n that_o i_o think_v he_o will_v not_o have_v put_v it_o in_o his_o book_n for_o a_o good_a restrictive_n moreover_o he_o commend_v above_o all_o other_o thing_n his_o balm_n make_v of_o the_o oil_n of_o wax_n &_o mirth_n beat_v together_o with_o the_o yolk_n of_o a_o

the_o happen_v of_o any_o perilous_a accident_n nevertheless_o he_o say_v that_o they_o do_v unite_v &_o consolidate_v those_o kind_n of_o wound_n as_o they_o do_v which_o be_v incise_v true_o it_o seem_v very_o strange_a to_o i_o to_o see_v that_o any_o will_v go_v about_o to_o dress_v and_o cure_v contuse_v wound_n as_o simple_a wound_n which_o demand_v nothing_o but_o union_n over_o and_o beside_o these_o balm_n can_v be_v proper_a in_o wound_n make_v by_o gunshot_n because_o that_o by_o reason_n of_o their_o siccity_n they_o do_v hinder_v suppuration_n without_o the_o which_o they_o can_v be_v cure_v and_o if_o they_o be_v needful_a at_o all_o it_o be_v only_o after_o that_o the_o contusion_n be_v suppurate_v &_o the_o wound_n mundify_v and_o then_o i_o know_v not_o where_o we_o shall_v find_v so_o many_o extractor_n of_o quintessence_n to_o extract_v and_o prepare_v so_o many_o balm_n as_o shall_v be_v needful_a to_o dress_v those_o soldier_n which_o shall_v be_v hurt_v in_o the_o assault_n of_o a_o town_n purpose_n or_o a_o skirmish_n in_o battle_n neither_o where_o they_o shall_v get_v money_n sufficient_a to_o countervail_v the_o charge_n thereof_o let_v we_o come_v to_o the_o rest_n he_o ordain_v that_o these_o balm_n shall_v be_v instill_v into_o the_o wound_n without_o tent_n yet_o afterward_o remember_v himself_o he_o say_v that_o it_o will_v be_v very_o good_a to_o put_v within_o they_o a_o little_a short_a one_o only_o to_o keep_v the_o orifice_n of_o the_o wound_n open_a how_o be_v it_o possible_a that_o these_o balm_n and_o unguent_n shall_v be_v convey_v into_o the_o bottom_n of_o the_o wound_n without_o tent_n or_o seton_n who_o use_n be_v principal_o to_o carry_v medicine_n unto_o the_o bottom_n of_o wound_n and_o to_o keep_v they_o open_a to_o give_v issue_n unto_o all_o strange_a body_n all_o good_a practiser_n will_v never_o agree_v with_o he_o in_o this_o point_n nor_o those_o which_o know_v what_o it_o be_v to_o handle_v such_o wound_n now_o there_o be_v yet_o another_o thing_n worthy_a to_o be_v well_o note_v and_o that_o be_v this_o after_o that_o he_o have_v reprove_v the_o unguent_n of_o egyptiacum_n he_o nevertheless_o forget_v himself_o command_v it_o to_o be_v apply_v from_o the_o begin_n until_o the_o wound_n be_v altogether_o suppurate_v and_o to_o be_v thus_o use_v take_v say_v he_o of_o egyptiacum_n dissolve_v in_o a_o decoction_n on_o make_v of_o the_o top_n of_o wormwood_n and_o of_o hypericon_n and_o of_o the_o lesser_a centaury_n and_o plantain_n and_o this_o to_o be_v inject_v into_o the_o wound_n hâ—_n describe_v after_o that_o another_o make_v of_o plantain_n water_n and_o honey_n of_o rose_n boil_v together_o unto_o the_o thickness_n of_o honey_n and_o then_o scum_v of_o it_o well_o therewithal_o mix_v egyptiacum_n in_o equal_a part_n &_o say_v he_o this_o unguent_n do_v suppurate_a those_o wound_n which_o be_v make_v by_o gun-shot_n i_o leave_v the_o experiment_a chirurgicall_a reader_n to_o judge_v whether_o such_o remedy_n be_v suppurative_a or_o not_o as_o for_o i_o i_o do_v esteem_v they_o to_o be_v proper_a to_o mundify_v and_o cleanse_v and_o not_o to_o suppurate_n he_o final_o write_v that_o the_o wound_n ought_v not_o to_o be_v dress_v but_o once_o in_o four_o day_n and_o where_o there_o shall_v be_v fracture_n of_o the_o bone_n once_o in_o eight_o day_n he_o
