moue them for to goe possesse such riches offered them Since in those Countries there was none but naked sauage men The souldiers which that time lay there did couet for to lye With those strange womē which were brought but what they got therby Too many know to their much griefe the French did put the blame Vpon the Spaniards that brought it to Naples when they came The Neapolitans did say the French did bring it them For they this painfull sore disease did neuer know till then The Flammings call it Spanish Pox and sure they brought it first To Christendome as you haue heard and therefore most are cu●st The Scots likewise when they haue met some part of this Disease They vse in iest to say that they are bit with Spanish Fleas 〈…〉 behinde as Fleas doe vse to doe 〈…〉 belike they vse it too 〈…〉 sport and loue know and than 〈…〉 hath 〈…〉 is not a Gentleman 〈…〉 withall the Pox of Rome 〈…〉 doth staine and 〈◊〉 their clothes the other foules the bone● 〈…〉 they in plaine good troth will sweare it came to vs 〈…〉 and therefore takes the name of Morbur Gallicus Pild-Garlike now I thinke I haue full satisfied your minde And if you search a thousand bookes more truth you shall not finde You see what posting off there is the Pox is no mans friend And since that none will father it I heere will make an end Nay doe not so Pild-Garlike said le ts heere a little more The Hunting of the Pox which you did speake of first before Content good Syr and therewithall he made no longer stay But tooke his booke and turn'd the lease and thus began to say The Hunting of the Pox with the Life and Death of Morbus Gallicus A Young Italian Gentleman of birth descended well Of stature comely faire proud as those know him could tell His father died and hauing got his wealth all in his hands To trauaile now was his desire to see some forraine lands His name Sup●i●u● Publicus and was a Romane borne He hated those despisde his name or Country had in scorne To France he now his iourney tooke to see the pleasant soile The fashions there to know and learne he meant to stay a while And finding of the Country sweet and women that were faire The store of Vineyards and of fruits withall a holesome ayre Meant there to set his staffe and rest and gan acquaintance seeke And such acquaintance as himselfe he thought could loue and like At length he met a Curtesan an old Dogge at the game Her name was Veneris people said the Diuell ought him shame And made this foole to fall in loue when first he heard her name Shee painted was both face and brests and hands with azure veines And for to set her flesh to sale shee sparde no skill nor paines He thought an Angell he had met when first he saw her face So mayden-like behaued her selfe in gesture and in pace With words so fitting to his minde set out with comely grace Yet had the Pox so bither bones and Hounds which on her tended Fell on at length Saperbus flesh till that his life they ended This Ve●eris was ● Hound most faire by Arte and Nature made A Neapolitan by birth a Curtesan by trade Her Syer●a Dog●● of India breed her Dam in stewes brought vp And shee her selfe 〈◊〉 into France where quickly shee was put Into an honest Brothel-house for that must be the name Therefor to learne and be brought vp till shee be past all shame Shee was the first that sea●de vpon Superbus in his sport And made him poore and se●●e God knowes as men of him report And altered all his body cleane that strangers where he came Did call him Morbus Gallicus or French-diseased man Yet Morbus was not then his name but shee did giue it him And for because he would be knowne to be one of her kin Shee left a token and a marke that stucke fast to his skin At length this Hound with all her Whelpes he entertain'd at last Though in the end he would haue run away from them full fast M●ch like Actr●● whom his Hounds their Master eate vnknowne Because he like a Hart with hornes and haire was ouergrowne And yet the Huntsman knew full well the Hounds were all his owne And would haue spoke if that he could and calde each by his name Whereby they should haue ceast to bite if Dogges had any shame But these Dogges which I tend to speake was of another kinde Of other nature and of forme and of another minde For first they caught Superbus purse and eate the bottome out Then on his gay and silken clothes and lapt him in a clout And thus in passing by degrees they thought best to begin To strippe him first and so they might come better to his skin Thus was Superbus Publican so lapt and wrapt with shame That he was malecontent perforce to leaue his publike name Not one good part was in these Hounds though he his wealth thē gaue Saue that they shewde their loue in this they brought him to his graue It resteth now to speake in briefe the storie as I finde The hunting with the Hounds their names and natures of their kinde That each good man that 〈◊〉 C●●s may draw his sword at them And stolne no do●●●●●sse to kill such beasts as would kill men Now after Veneris had 〈…〉 Morbu● to the quicke And like a Horse-l●nd● 〈◊〉 him and to his downe did sticke That he was faine ●o b●●y againe much like a new faine Deere Which when the other Dogges and Hounds did sent and ouer-heare The Kennell all ca●●● in at once more then a man would thinke Whose breathes like Carrin did infect the ayre with lothsome stinke There was no sounding of retreate by winding horne was heard For euery Dogge ran for his part as if he had been staru'd First Go●●ra that alwaies still in running had delight Did sea● vpon his raynes and backe and there did gnaw and bight This Go●●ra an olde ●eade Hound some say in Sodom bred Would neuer leaue if that shee might vntill her prey were dead Then B●●bo with her stealing pace vpon his groyne did fast And if shee suffered might haue been would eate his guts at last This B●●bo had to Sire a Curre from Portugals he came A Curtesan in Lisbone Towne was said to be her Damme Shee had of Puppyes two or three Amorous some them call Because that like to Mulberies vpon the skinne doe fall These seazde vpon the Virgo top and stucke fast to his skinne Which growing ripe and turnde to seed like warts they doe beginne Then came Car●●●cula a Brache her Dam and Sier of Spaine A wicked Whelpe it was and put poore Morbus to great paine Shee would not come into his house nor scratch his garden-plot But in his Yeard both day and night a kennell there shee got At length he tooke her for a Witch

had sent aliue into their graues And therefore knew the way full well to helpe this crasie man And Medicus to countenance all he was the first began And Noynted Morbus ouer all about with Vygoes grease And sweat him in a tubbe whereby that all his paines should cease What followed next is shame to tell but so he brought about Poore Morbus tongue and gumbes did swell and all his teeth fell out Then Pharmacus with glisters and Horse-leaches in a glasse Began his Musicke and applied his Bagpipes to his arste Yet all this while poore Morbus head did neuer take no rest For day and night his new-made paines each hower did him molest Then Leech he tooke a wimble vp and borde him through the skull This wimble he a Trepan call'd and out a peece did pull And powr'd in Kyst and made him drinke Spruse-Beere his belly full Till that they laid him in a trance and whilst that did endure They stole away and left report that he was past all cure Now when all hopes were past and gone and Art no more could try And he growne sicke and faint and lookt each hower for to dye He counselled was to seeke a Priest and haue minde of his soule Lest sudden death should take him hence before his bell could toule The Priest was sent for out of hand a little poore old man And prayde make haste I will quoth he make all the haste I can Belike the Priest had vnderstood before of Morbus name And would haue posted off to goe had it not been for shame And more for being spoken to he may not it denie And therefore 〈◊〉 with more speed before the man should die So when he came and entred in the chamber where he lay And saw poore Morbus looke on him and neuer a word did say S●l●● Domin● said the Priest be answered soft ●● The Priest was angry at that word and thought he calde him Iew And would haue gone away in rage had not some for Gods sake Requested him to stay for why he did the sicke mistake And tolde him that his throate was sore and all his teeth were out He could not speake and stinke perfumde his chamber round about Then did this Priest thinke with himselfe he should commit great sin If that the sacred blessed Host he should giue vnto him To swallow downe by stinking mouth and throate filde with the Pox He turnde about and secretly ●ulde out a little box That in his wide gowne sleeue had hid and that of purpose thought As some doe thinke for in the same a Turnep he had brought And priuately cut off a slice thereof and somewhat thin And after ceremonies done the vile Priest gaue it him Poore Morbus ●oulde it in his mouth because his throate was rough And through his nose hee tolde the Priest his God was very tough The Priest then bade him swallow it downe though it put him to paine The merit of his owne free-will in heauen should finde a gaine With that poore Morbus forst himselfe to swallow downe the Host And in that doing choakt himselfe and so gaue vp the ghost Requi●● in pace said the Priest so rest thy soule in peace For now by death thy sinnes and paines shall heere for euer cease T was well done said Pild-Garlike then to ease him of his greefe But yet I wish a better cure should come for my releefe And for the tale which thou hast tolde I like it passing well But thou therein hast been too bold as now I will thee tell The Gonoraea perhaps thou knowest by diuers waies may come And Alopece by sicknesse long and Scorbute which doth run Amongst the Ioynts and maketh lame and likewise for the Goute The which belongs vnto great Lords not for to iest or floute T is knowne Pope Sixtus dyed thereof and Lewes the twelfth of France And many Princes of great state whom Honor did aduance And had no Pox at all men know therefore who made the same Did want of matter for to write or else he was too blame Pild-Garlick you are much deceiude and that for want of skill The Pox is master of all griefes where he may haue his will Who hath the Skuruy Alopece or running of the Raynes Serpigo Hemrods or the Piles or whatsoere breeds paynes If that the Pox be there before he master is of all See Parraselsus which hath writ of Poxes great and small And he will say a pockie Goute and dropsies of that kinde And more diseases which some men by paynes doe chance to finde● The Pox will breede and Naturalize by law of Propinquinitie And double all their force and paynes by neerenesse of Affinitie Well answered then Pild-Garlicke said thy iudgement likes me well I le grace thy Booke where ere I goe as also where I dwell But Honest friend after all this one thing doth yet remaine To helpe poore Morbus in this case and how to cure his paine And kill or poyson all his Dogges for sure there is a way For I my selfe haue thrise bin curde as thou hast heard me say Yet know I not for want of skill in this what course to take For diuers I doe see doth marre the cures which others make Master Pild-Garlicke I am disposde to satisfie your minde I see you gentle in your speech and in correction kinde Where you finde fault I take it well but some no words can please I would such men our words distaste might taste our Spanish-Fleas And now Sir since you me request and for some are abusde I le write you Medicens of the best and how they may be vsde And which shall cure all griefes thereof conseruing your intent If the Disease be not confinnde or Nature too much spent THE MANNER OF CVRING THE French ●●●ease according to the constitution of 〈◊〉 Countries THe Indians of the Western parts whēce this Disease first came Doth vse Tobacco diuers wayes to cure and helpe the same They eate 〈◊〉 to purge the bloud and sternu●ation make For head ache paynes and then the smoak to draw the rhume they take The Spaniards forty years ago that into Flanders came And brought the Pox or got them there to ease them now and than Of their sore pain● 〈◊〉 Sena ●ake which into poulder small They did reduce 〈◊〉 Tartar white the dose a dram was all Which eu'ry morning they would take goe where soere they will This did them ease 〈…〉 those the which did vse it still The Spaniards and the Portugals that came from new found Spaine Doth vse to boyle them Sassafras to ease them of their paine And taking of no other drinke for this they thinke most sure Saue that each other fourth day whilst this drinke doth endure They purge them with Mecho●can and so performe the cure In Italy the Curtesans and those of better sort Doe take the Chyma-roote for helpe as some of them report The which with Salsa and nought else a faire decoction
