it down with your hand Let him go and he will do very well A Remedy for the Kibes in the Heel Cut them forth as nigh as you can and let them bleed well then take Herb-Grace and the Yolk of a new-laid Egg well beaten and stampt and so bind it to the grief and it will help and heal it An excellent Remedy for the sickness of the Lungs This disease is perceived by the rising and shaking of the Dew-lap For the Cure take Bearfoot and beaten Garlick wrap it in Butter then cut his Dew-lap two inches beneath his sticking place open it round with your finger or with a stick on both sides and beheath then put in your stuff You must cut your Dew-lap four fingers above the bottom thereof then must you tye a strong thred to your stuff to pluck it up and down as you shall see cause to every third day and it will rot the sooner If the humour do not rot then change your stuff and put in new and he shall do well Excellent Remedies for the Cough in Cattel This distemper proceeds from cold or over-travelling of the beast or by eating of some unwholesom thing For the Cure take Stitchwort chopt small with husked Beans bruised together you may also take of Lentil-pease cut out of their Husks bruise them small and mix them with three pints of warm Water and give it him with a Horn. If an Ox hath but of late got a Cough you may cure it by a drink made with water mixed with Barley-meal For the Navel-gall with the Remedy THis distemper proceeds from a hurt with a Saddle or with the Buckle of a Crupper or from some other cause that hath hurt the midst of the Back The Cures whereof are divers and so they ought to be for Medicine is to be administred according to the hurt as it may be more or less If it be but only galled take the Soot of a Chimney and Yest mixed together and plaister it once or twice a day Another Cure for it is that if it be so hurt that it swell and is impostumed then lance it on the nethermost part of the Ulcer so that the matter may have issue downward for if you should lance it at the top then the corruption that remaineth will fistulate if you find the concavity deep then make a Tent of Flax and dip it in this Salve Take of Deers Suet of Wax of Tar and of Turpentine of each three ounces and one ounce of Rosin mingle them together and tent the Wound and if you see any dead flesh grow in it then sprinkle the powder of Verdigrease upon it lay upon the head of the Tent the plaister of the Yolk of an Egg Honey and Wheat-flour and thus dress it morning and evening and it will quickly be whole Of the Worms with the Remedy THe Worms lye in the great Paunch of the Belly of the Horse they are engendred of raw and bad humours There are three kinds of them the Worm the Bot the Truncheon some of them are of a shining colour like a Snake six inches in length great in the midst and sharp at both ends The Horse when he is troubled with them will lye down and wallow which is when they feed on him his breath will stink his mouth be clammy The present Remedy is to give him a quart of Milk and half a pint of Honey in it blood-warm this will keep them from gnawing of him because they will suck thereof until they are ready to burst then the next day give him this Drink Take a quart of Wort or Ale that is very strong then take a quarter of a pound of Fern half a pound of Savin half a pound of Stone-corp stamp them and mix them together with two spoonfuls of Brimstone and as much Chimney-foot beaten to powder Let them lye in steep two hours then strain them and give the Horse a little warm bridle him and let him stand six hours without meat and question not but your Horse will be quiet and do well Of the Farcy with the Remedy THis is a very bad disease but may be cured if it be taken in time it will appear in divers parts of the body where there will rise Pimples and as much as half a Walnut shell they will follow a Vein and will break of themselves and as many Horses as do play with him that is sore and gnap off the matter that runneth out of the sore will have the same disease within a month after and therefore let the Grasier keep his sick Horses from the whole This distemper proceeds from an Ulcer which is not unknown to any that have for a long time been Masters of Horses and yet unknown to all I mean as to the true cause of this disease Some say it is a corruption of the blood some an outward hurt as of Spur-galling biting of Ticks Hogs Lice or such like some say an infirmity bred in the Breast near the Heart in the Side-vessels near the Stones with many evil humours congealed together which afterwards disperse themselves into the Thighs and sometimes into the Head and doth send forth watery humours into the Nostrils and then 't is called â—he running Farcy Indeed if the true cause â—f a disease be known the disease it self is eaâ—â—ly cured The Mange the Leprosie and this disease of the Farcy are most pernicious to a Horse for oftentimes it falleth out that many Horses infected therewith though they live and the disease seemeth to be healed yet they are rendred of small or of no use For my own part I conjecture the cause of this disease grows either from abundance of bad blood or by a great distemper thereof through a violent heat changed into a sudden cold To cure this distemper first let him blood on both sides of the Neck three quarters at least for it is most certain that the Liver which is the fountain of blood is corrupted and so sendeth the same into every part of the body so as to become lothsom to behold then give the Horse this Drink Take a Gallon of fair Water put into it a good handful of Rue and a good spoonful of Hemp-seed and a handful of the inner Rind of green Elder bruise them in a Mortar together and let them sethe until they are half consumed and being cold give it to him to drink still continue to let him blood a great quantity in that Vein which is nighest to the sore place as you see occasion Let his diet be thin but very clean and sweet then take this following approved Medicine Of Herb-Grace a handful of Featherfew a handful of Chickweed of the House a handful of Kikweed a handful of Herb-Robert a handful keep the residue thereof in a Pipkin close covered with the Earth stop the mouth thereof close with Herb-Grace and Dock-leaves and a green Turfe laid upon it no Air to come in and every third day untye his Ears
the Rysen upon and the Remedy thereof FEw or no men know from whence this Disease proceedeth but you may perceive it by swelling in the Head and more especially by the Eyes for they will run on water and close the beasts sight which many times causes them to dye within an hour or two if they are not suddenly taken in hand The cause of this disease is that there is a Blister risen under the Tongue the which Blister must be slit with a Knife across when he hath pulled out the Tongue let him rub the Blister well with Salt and take a Hens Egg and break it in the beasts mouth shell and all and cast Salt with it and hold up the beasts head that all may be swallowed down into the body But the breaking of the Blister is the great help let him drive the beast a little about and this shall cure him by the help of God Of the Turn and the Remedy thereof THere are beasts that will turn about when they eat their meat and will not feed 't is a dangerous disease for them by reason that they are subject to fall in Pits Ditches or Waters The cause of this distemper proceeds from a Bladder in the Forehead between the Brain-pan and the Brains the which must be taken out or else the beast shall never mend but it will kill him This is the Remedy and the greatest Cure that can be on a beast Take the beast and throw him down and bind his four feet together and with his Thumb let him thrust the Beast in the Forehead and where he finds the softest place there let him take a Knife and cut the skin three or four inches on both sides between the Horns and as much beneath towards the Nose and flay it and turn it up and down and pin it fast with a pin And with a Knife cut the Brain-pan two inches broad and three inches long but let him look that the Knife go no deeper then the thickness of the bone for perishing of the Brain Let him take away the bone and then he shall see a Bladder full of water two inches long and more Let him take that out and be sure that he hurt not the Brain and then let him lay down the skin and sew it fast as it was before and bind a cloth two or threefold upon his Forehead to keep it from cold and wet for ten or twelve days together thus have I seen many cured But if the Beast be fat and have good substantial meat upon him it will be safer to kill him for there will be but little loss If the Bladder be under the Horn it is past cure A Sheep will be troubled with the same distemper but I never saw any of them cured Of the Warry-breed and the Remedy THere are Beasts that have this Disease in divers parts of their Body and Legs This is the Remedy cast the beast down and bind his four Legs together and let the Farrier take a Culter or pair of Tongs or such other Iron and make it glowing hot and if it be a long Warry-breed let him fear it close to the body and if it be in the beginning and but flat then let him lay the hot Iron upon it and fear it to the bare skin and it will prove a perfect Cure Of the Foul and the Remedy THis Disease is for the most part between the Clees sometimes before and sometimes behind it will smell and cause the Beast to halt This is the Remedy cast him down and bind his four feet together and take a Rope hard writhen and twisted together and put it between his Clees and let him draw the Rope to and fro for a good space till that he bleed well and then let him lay to it soft-made Tar and bind a cloth about it that no Mire or Gravel get between the Clees then put him into pasture or let him stand still in the House and he will suddenly mend Of the Gout without Remedy THere are Beasts that will have the Gout and that for the most part in the hinder-feet which will cause him to go stifly and halt I never knew any man that could find such a Remedy as to cure this distemper the only way to be taken that I know of is to put him into good Grass and let him feed well To help a Beast that pisseth Blood Take of Bloodwort of Shepherds-purse or Knotgrass of each a like quantity and stamp them together then strain them with a quart of Milk of one coloured Cow and put thereinto a little Runnet made of the same Milk and mix therewith the Leaven of brown Bread then strain them all together and give it with a Horn use this morning and evening and it will cure him A Remedy for the Blain in the Tongue IT is a certain Bladder growing above the Root of the Tongue against the Pipe which grief at length with swelling will choak and stop the wind You may perceive this distemper by his gaping and holding forth of his Tongue and foaming at the mouth without a speedy Remedy it will suddenly kill him The Cure is to cast him and to take forth his Tongue and slit the Bladder or break it thereon then wash it with a little Vinegar and Salt and he will recover To help a Beast that is goared Take Ashes finely sifted and mix them with the grounds of Ale and Beer and make it as thick as Butter and so lay it thereon and it will heal it A Remedy for the Pantasie in a Beast THis Disease will shake him much and make him quiver in the Flanks and pant extreamly For the Cure you shall give him some Runnet Soot and Chamber-lye mixed together To kill Lice and Ticks in Cattel Take the Decoction of wild Olives mixed with Soot then rub and chafe the beast all over therewith Another Take Bearfoot-herb stamp it and then strain it with Vinegar mixt with it and so apply it A sovereign Remedy for the Plague in Cattel THis Disease proceeds from an infection of blood it appears first commonly in the Head for the beasts Head will swell and his Eyes grow great and run with water When he doth once forth at the mouth he is past Remedy For the Cure take of the wild Carrot called in Latine Daucus or wild Parsnep of Groundsil of Angelica-roots or the Root of Sea-Holm named Eringion with Fennel-seed and sprinkle it with sod Wine and fine wheaten Meal with hot Water mix them so together and give your sick Cattel to drink thereof then soon after you shall make a Drink of Cassia-Mirrh and Frankincense in like manner mixt with as much blood of the Sea-Tortoise if you can get it then put altogether in a quart of good old Wine and squire it into their Nostrils You must administer this Medicine three days together every day a third part Other Preservatives are these You must change their Lays and divide them into many
hot Iron draw two streaks on each side then in the midst of the first line lance them with a Lancelet or Razor taking hold of the Kernels with a pair of Pinsers so as that you may cut the Kernels out without hurting the Vein then fill the hole full of Salt Another Cure for the same Take Agrimony Honey and Violet-leaves stamp them together and slit the Sinew under the Ear and lay a Plaister thereunto for two or three days Of the Mourning Chine with the Remedy THe cause hereof is great heat and afterwards taking of cold it first beginneth with a Rheum which proceedeth to the Inflammation of the Liver and the Lungs by the continual distilling upon them then to the Glanders which is the Impostumation thereof and lastly to an Exulceration which abruptly and untruly is called the Mourning of the Chine The signs to know this disease are these 1. The continual distilling of Rheum in the Head 2. The continual Knobs between the Jaws 3. The keeping of the hair without casting 4. A continual running of a thick stinking matter at the Nose like Oâ—k-water 5. The fastning and growing of a Knob as big as a Walnut to the inside of one of the Jaws which if so commit the Horses Carcass to the Crows for he is past all help The Cure for such a Horse if he be not past Cure For the first which is the Rheum the Cure is what I have mentioned for the Cold in the Head For the second Cure I refer you to that of the Glanders For the third let him blood till you see that he have fine and pure blood and give him good Mashes For the fourth for the running of his Nose you may add some ordinary purging Drinks that are used for the purging of the Head For the fifth if you find no amendment but a knob grown to his Jaw then you must give him a Purge with Pills and if these means will not help him though he were the best Horse in the world he is remediless Of the Broken Wind with the Remedy THe cause of this dangerous disease hath been but guessed at not truly discovered by any as not being well understood therefore accounted of most Horse-men incurable I do intend to use my best endeavours to unfold and explain it to which purpose I will divide the same into three kinds every one of which may be truly termed a Broken Wind because the breath being drawn very short and thick contrary to the original Institution or Creation the which is long cold and quiet for so every Creature is by Nature but when any accident of violence of the body is used in any of them to a distemper the signs thereof will quickly be visible and then every mans experience telleth him evidently that he panteth and fetcheth breath very short and thick I therefore will begin with the Cause thereof the which rightly understood the Effects cannot be hid Now the causes why a Horse draws his breath very short are these as sickness great fulness violent exercise but the reason of the cause is for that the Heart being the only hottest part of the body from whence the Arteries and Veins do carry the heat thereof to every part of the body and therefore it is truly said to be the Chariot of Life when the same by sickness or violence of exercise is choaked or as it were smothered with too great heat then do the Lights being the Bellows to draw breath according to that Office that Nature ordained them unto presently labour with all violence to draw it and cool and comfort the Heart and so consequently all the members and parts of the body to fill all the empty corners with Air which naturally and in predominant qualities is moist and when they have drawn sufficient breath the driness and heat by the moistness of the Air is quenched which being so then doth the Creature draw breath leisurely and coldly and not before but so long as the Heart is oppressed by the violent heat of sickness or by great fulness or violent exercise the Caves Pipes and passages for the breath are almost stopped and choaked up then do the Lungs labour extream thick to preserve the life of the Creature which is the Heart and therefore it is said to be the first thing that liveth and the last that dyeth So that all things which hinder and stop the passages of the breath breaking the natural course thereof are the only causes of a Broken Wind. So likewise the Cure of the Broken Wind must be by removing of the stoppings of the Air and then the Lungs will perfectly perform their Office and the Creature will be freed from the disease The differences of Broken Winds both in cause and effect are divers and yet may be termed Broken namely the shortness of breath the Pursick and Broken-winded 1. As touching the shortness of breath it may proceed from some gross and tough humours cleaving to the hollow places of the Lungs stopping the Wind-pipes so that the Horse cannot easily draw his breath and the sign thereof is his coughing often daily and vehemently without voiding at the Nose or the Mouth 2. It may come by hasty running after drinking or upon a full stomach or dissolution of humours descending into his Throat or Lungs by reason of some violent heat dissolving the same And the signs thereof are continually panting sending the same forth very hot at his Nose in a wheasing manner his Flanks beating so thick that he cannot fetch breath but by holding his Neck right-out and straight and this may be truly called a Broken Wind. The Cure is to take a close earthen Pot and put thereinto three pints of strong Wine-vinegar and some new-laid Eggs with the shells unbroken and four Garlick-heads clean peeled and bruised then cover the Pot close and set it in some warm Dunghil and there let it stand a whole night and the next morning take out the Eggs but break them not then strain the Garlick and Vinegar through a clean cloth put thereunto a quarter of Honey half a quarter of Sugar-candy two ounces of Liquorish two ounces of Aniseeds beaten into a fine powder The Horse having fasted all night in the morning open his mouth and put out his Tongue and put one Egg into his Throat and then let go his Tongue so that he may swallow it down then pour after it a Horn of the said Drink being luke-warm and so all the Eggs in that manner and all the Drink being spent bridle him and stop him and cloath him very warm and let him stand four hours then unbit him and if it be in Winter give him Wheat-straw but no Hay and if in the Summer time give him Grass and for some days together Mashes to drink with some Sallet-Oyl or Hogs grease in them and the Horse will do well and in few days be fit for Exercise Of the Gravelling of the Horse with the Remedy IT is
