some need also to be better purged and clearely cleansed Likewise for the body inward passages although they were or are newly scowred yet neuerthelesse they may require some more labor therein and also to be throughly cooled Therefore as you shall see cause first in the head by snufling or sniting or any other signes vse the iuyce of Dasies or Sage to cause her throw it forth the sooner but if you perceiue the humour to continue neuerthelesse moist still then put to the iuyce a little of the powder of dust of Brimstone to drie it vp withall and she shall doe well Likewise for the body and inward places giue with her meate the distilled water of eyther Horehound or Woodbine or the water of Barley that I haue prescribed in my other booke and shee shall be well and her body moderately cooled and in good temper againe CHAP. XXXI Of the Eye THE Goshawke as you know is a fierce spirited fast flying Hawke if she haue naturally a true loue and liking to her prey and for that shee is most commonly vsed to flye through the hight of highest and thickest woods where the game that shee best loues most often vses and because the eye and onely ornament of her body is her chiefe guide in those places and is so deare and precious a Iewell vnto her it were great pitty that it should miscarry or bee blemisht by any misfortune Therefore fearing or misdoubting that any such euill accident should befall I will shew you a sure medicine to amend it withall CHAP. XXXII For the Eye that shall haue any hurt by accident or otherwise to grow vpon it TAke a thunderbolt the which is found most commonly in the fields in some channell or water-course by which means it is there laid open from the earth and is easily to be perceiued and put it into a hot fire and burne it well then when it is cold againe beat it to fine powder and searce or sift it through a faire linnen cloath then mingle it with sweet butter in differently and on any occasion put as much or the quantity of two little pins heads morning and euening into the Hawkes eye and if any thing whatsoeuer will doe it good this will not faile to doe the like Also you may at these times blow it into the eye with a straw and it is as good and will as speedily worke any thing forth or recouer any thing that is growing or amisse in that place CHAP. XXXIII Of the Hobby and the Marlion HOBBY MERLIN THere is yet this Cast of little Hawkes the which I haue not so much as once named the one is belonging to the young man the other pertaining to the Lady and in my opinion are most equally matcht one with the other in regard whereof it were great pitty they should bee parted euer but euen flye for the prey by turnes together not you know where I do not meane for then the young man perforce must mount alost indeed at which the Lady would be as lowly displeased to see her Marlion so put downe in the losty flight But what do I meane to skip so farre beyond my Art let mee curteously craue pardon and fauor to leaue the Lady and her Hawke together as birds with whom I neuer had nor haue no skill to deale at all and withdraw the young man and his Hobbie Into the Champian fields where he may be partaker of such sundry sorts of glee As tongue can no way well expresse or eye shall seldome see For there he may behold her first as she is wilde And see how she bestirs her the silly birds for to beguild And also attends the Falconer and his Spaniels as they range As if shee were mand before which is a thing most strange That such a bird that neuer was in hand Should wait so long and stop so oft Many a true labouring seruāt hath been cast off with a bunting that hath deserued a Larke for his reward and neuer goe to stand And furthermore neither to bee serued But so let goe without reward that hath so well deserued Yet neuerthelesse this louing Hawke will take no offence at all But on the morrow next will as ready be to come when hee shall call But to vncouple his Spaniels after his wonted guise To spring the fearefull Partridge that in the stubble lies Or else the mounting Larke which soone the Hobbie spies And beats from ground with all her might vp to the lofty skies Which then for to behold no mirth you may compare Vnto the Hobbie and the Larke thus striuing in the ayre Vntill the harmelesse bird being wearied with the flight Is forc't with clipped wings together to throw her selfe downe right Whereat the Hawke doth ioy and dallies by the way Yet long before they come to ground shee makes of her a prey For the Partridge the Haggart of this kinde is best and may most certainely be made a speciall Hawke for the same shee must bee taught and trained in each degree like vnto the Faulcon and must bee carefull not to flye her after eight a clocke in the morning especially if the Sunne breake out in any heate for if you doe she will fall to soring and be lost and must be sought vp againe where shee was first taken Also in the afternoone you may begin at two if the day be temperate and Hawke with her vntill it be neere the setting of the Sunne but if she be flone any longer she will likewise fall to dorring and be lost but otherwise with this obseruation and good order in her diet shee will shewe her selfe a Hawke to please a Prince for you may flye her twenty times in the afternoone when no other Hawkes will flye but must be waited on yet a little longer then may you put her to it as eyther to the Partridge the quaile the clot bird in the fallow fields which is a very fat and a dainty bird much like vnto the Martine the Warwinckle which is a pyed bird and vses most in pastur-ground or other champane places whereas growes great and tall bushes one some place or distance from the other whereas I haue seene an hundred stoopings vpon one of the same birds before it could be kild which is most excellent sport and full of delight for if the bushes stands not some reasonable distance apart the bird will be so terrified at the sight of the Hobbie as you may almost take it with your hand and when you thinke it meete in the end you may kill it with a stone bow and throw it to the Hawke Also for the Larke I am not able with my pen to expresse the delight and passing pleasure that is in that flight but indeede the Eyas is the very best for the mount for after she hath but wrought three or fowre seeled Larkes and preyed on them shee will neuer giue ouer but worke into the high ayre after the Larke so it be in
mornings in the weeke it is very good to draw downe tough slime out of the head I could set downe diuers other things more stronger but in them there is some danger and in this there is none at all but will worke to good purpose and cause a good conclusion CHAP. XXX Of the Craye THis disease or infirmity that wee call or terme the Craye is of an exiccatiue or astringent qualitie drying binding in the Hawke which causeth her not to mute or slice from her according as naturally shee ought to doe but otherwise to drop farre short some part of it disperst asunder from the other also passes not clearely with ease but comes harshly and hardly from her all which signes and shewes are apparant and easie to bee perceiued And therefore the keeper is so much the more to be blamed that shall deferre any time and suffer the cure thereof to be neglected for by that meanes the griefe is growne to be more dangerous and deadly whereas otherwise it is of no moment but may bee very easily amended for you are to remember that this particular infirmity proceedes also of cold as the other doth that I haue before named but yet after another fashion For I let you know before that both the Crampe and the Rye commeth by taking cold And this which now I speake of is taken by a continuance of grosse and cold washt meat that is giuen the Hawke to feede vpon which this kinde will not endure or last withall for it will consume them inwardly where it cannot be seene as in those places and after the manner as shall appeare heereafter plaine vnto you It is not vnknown but that the gorge of the Hawke is the first place and onely receptacle or harbor of such sustenance as shee alwaies takes to nourish her whole body withall and is vnto her as a maine and cleane conduit the which being filled with pure cleare liquor it is not tainted or made vnsauorie there but let passe in due time further into smaller vessels more fine then it was before to serue for other vses Euen so on the contrary it is with the Hawke for if her gorge be filled with stale and grosse colde meat contrary to her naturall inclination it will soone grow vnsauory there and her stomacke will abhorre to entertaine it and also the other more secret passages will be annoyed thereby which will quickely turne to her destruction As for example I haue knowne diuers Hawkes that hath died on this occasion whose inward and inuisible infirmity hath neuer beene mistrusted but onely hath practised and wrought on the tuel for remedie neuerthelesse when shee hath beene opened the very gorge hath beene like vnto chawke with the panell and the next venting place into the small guts hath beene euen burnt eaten with heat like vnto the Frownce which was the cause her excrements wanted free passage all which proceede from such vnnaturall stale diet as the stomacke could not wel brooke and were repugnant to their naturall disposition for there is no such kinde of grosse feede giuen although the gorge will with greedinesse receiue it yet afterwards the stomacke will be choyce and vnwilling to taste of it as you may well perceiue when it hath beene kept so long as that it begins to waxe windie sowre distastfull and by the course of nature would faine be eased and emptied of some part thereof which doth so much annoy and offend her as you may see by her often writhing and striuing to remoue it and put it downe into the pannell Her stomacke and when she hath in some measure so done through nature● violent forcing yet it is also therein so long detained and vnkindly digested as that by vertue of it shee doth not win to her selfe any naturall or kindly comfort but otherwise euill imperfections and humours of moysture doth arise thereon which ascends vp into the head whereby all that part is molested otherwise there is left downewards much vnnaturall heate and oppilations or stoppings that infects the body and secret passages whereupon this disease which we call the Craye doth proceed with many others Wherefore it behoueth euery man to respect his Hawke better then at any time to cloye or clog her with such grosse and vnkindly feeding but otherwise with care to giue her her due as neere as hee may according to her deseruing and naturall disposition withall further obseruing other such necessary courses belonging in due time and season as I haue in many places appointed by prescriptions and in so doing hee shall neuer haue neede to take care for eyther scowring or medicine but shall euermore haue his Hawke according to his owne liking full lofty and strong well able to performe her businesse after the best manner whereas the other that shall be carelesse and forgetfull is well pleased if he may pamper her with any thing and is as vnrespectiue of other wants or needs appertaining hee shall seldome or neuer haue his Hawke perfect and healthfull but euer out of tune and vnfitte to doe any thing whereas before through ill dyet and disorder your Hawke caught this disease so now on the contrary and especially by meanes of better vsage and good diet with some other appliment you must restore her to health againe wherefore so soone as it is perceiued you must remember that you are not onely to destroy and kill the Craye alone but also such other euils as waites and partakes with that in the vnnaturall working the poore Hawkes desolation which is cold and moist raw humours ascending vp into the head and otherwise vnnaturall heat and drowth with oppilations or stoppings possessing the body and interior passages all which ought to be particularly considered of and your remedy prepared and applied accordingly Then first you must bethinke your selfe of her diet that it may be of light and coole meates easie to be disgested as of Hens flesh Chickens young Pigeons Rabbets new Sheepes-hearts Porke Pig of the shoulder and the heart then must you prouide the sweetest fresh butter of the newest gathering that may be and boyle and scum it well with halfe a score bruised cloues of mace in it and when you haue so done in the cooling put in a little of the powder of Rue and so keepe it close in a boxe and as often as you doe feed anoint her meat therewith the oftner the better so that the gorges be easie according to the Hawkes abilitie and the power of the infirmitie and for certaine this will not faile onely to open and loosen the head but also disperse those other humors in the bodie and scower them away that was cause of the sundrie diseases Now when you haue seen this businesse thus well effected in the head by her countenance and other appearance there and also that shee mutes and slices well from her againe neuerthelesse it may well be her head was but onely loosened will haue
