A11936	The perfect vse of silk-vvormes, and their benefit With the exact planting, and artificiall handling of mulberrie trees whereby to nourish them, and the figures to know how to feede the wormes, and to winde off the silke. And the fit maner to prepare the barke of the white mulberrie to make fine linnen and other workes thereof. Done out of the French originall of D'Oliuier de Serres Lord of Pradel into English, by Nicholas Geffe Esquier. With an annexed discourse of his owne, of the meanes and sufficiencie of England for to haue abundance of fine silke by feeding of silke-wormes within the same; as by apparent proofes by him made and continued appeareth. For the generall vse and vniuersall benefit of all those his countrey men which embrace them. Neuer the like yet here discouered by any.; Theatre d'agriculture et mesnage des champs. Part 5.

come forth all within foure or fiue daies distance from the first hatching vntill the last those neuer lightly making good end which tarry longer but miserable and sluggish end their life in languish oftentimes without profit Wherefore it is for that that one prouokes the seed warming it with curious diligence as hath been shewed vsing which order little seed remaines vnhatched You shall not then make any account of the graine which shal be remaining in the said boxes after the said terme nor of the Wormes likewise that shall be so backward but rather reiect all that as vnprofitable Such hatching of a company is one of the most notablest points of this busines whereby finally with sauing the profit issues according to the proiect because that these creatures taking life almost in the same day are more easily handled than if they were of diuers ages I haue also said that they suffer This creature feares the cold and the heate much by the colds and by the heats in all their ages for in their youth the cold troubles them strangely hauing great power ouer them being the most weak and delicate cattell which is fed and in age the heat killes them When in their greatest force you finde them bigge and vnwealdy through the silke wherewith they are filled which constraines them to seeke fresh ayre By contrary remedies one prouides for The remedies these things but with lesse difficultie one dresses the Wormes in the cold than in the heate that is in hol●ing them straightly in the beginning and largely at the end by little and little according to their age inlarging them finally to put them for altogether at their ease on the skaffolds In the meane while imploying to purpose according to accidents the warmings by the ayde of the fire and the refreshings by opening of the windowes of the house They haue foure naturall● and ordinary diseases The Silk-wormes during their life change foure times their skins as Serpēts do once a yeere which causeth them so many maladies during which they eate not at all but vnmoueable they do nothing but sleepe passing so their ill These diseases for these reasons called of the Spaniards Dormilles are comparable to these of young children as small pockes measles shingles other that in necessity they haue in their youth of which they are helped being well looked to So by good gouerning our Wormes are saued from these necessary mischiefes shunning the danger of death neuerthelesse with more difficultie in the latter then in the first through age in being more oppressed old then young as it happens to men which hauing not had in season the diseases of youth being strucken more late more dangerous is They haue also accidentall diseases also the issue Besides these ordinary diseases the Wormes haue accidentall diseases comming of the time the meat the lodging and of the gouernment the which one helpes vsing particular remedies as shall bee shewed In the care of the ordinary ones there is no point of skill you must only abstaine from giuing them to eate when they refuse their meate and to giue them moderately their appetite being come againe alwaies to feed them with good leaues and to keepe them neately The first maladie being diuersly called as a change a drowsines or a benumming happens at the eighth or tenth day of their comming forth the eight or ten daies following them one after another more or lesse according to the climat quality of the season of which the heate shortens the distance of these termes To which also serues the goodnesse of victuals and diligent care for so much more as one giues to these creatures of leaues well quallified if so be they will eate them so much more shorter will their life be How to know their diseases The sicknes of these wormes is knowne first of all by the head which swelles then when they will chaunge insomuch that in that part their skinne begins to peele but more apparantly in their last benummings then in those that follow not being able almost in the first to discerne what it is for the littlenesse of the creature While their drousinesse hath seased them you must refraine to giue them meate for that would bee but lost labour onely one shall cast them some pittance to sustaine those amongst the drowsie ones which wake the which by this meanes discerned shal be separated from the others for to be assembled with those which are of equall age Each disease holdes them two daies at the third beginning to get their health againe the which one knowes by their feeding which comes to them with much appetite then one shall giue them victuals againe but sparingly to the ende not to fill them to quickly augmenting their ordinary day by day as one shall find them affectioned to eat Their diet limited Twice a day morning and euening at certaine houres one shall serue the Wormes with meat from their hatching till their second change or drousines so limiting their repast Frō the second to the fourth and last thrice a day from that till the end of their life foure fiue or sixe times a day and in some so much as you please and that you shall see the creatures can eate For then you must spare no foode but rather cloying them to fill and satiate their appetite hasting them by much eating to perfect their taske And as the vessell wil neuer run ouer except it be ful so these Wormes will neuer vomit their silke till their bodies be satisfied the which engendring of the leafe of the Mulberrie all is as soone found ready to be sponne as the quantitie of the leaues destinde by nature to such worke shall be dissolued By such carefulnes there is no more leaues wasted then if one distributed thē skarselie for that within eight daies the Wormes will eate neere as much by little and little as within foure giuen them liberally Then this is without occasion that one should feare the expence seeing that on the contrarie by such liberalitie besides all well compted it expendes nothing more comes this sparing which winning The qualities of the leaues very considerable time the cost of the feeding falles out lesse Afterwardes one shall marke very curiously the qualities of the leaues as an article bearing sway in this foode For all leaues are not proper for this though they be producted by Mulberries without fault happening sometimes that by extremitie of drought or moysture meldew heate droppes and other intemperatures of the time all the leaues or most part of the trees become yelowish spotted or speckled a signe of vnholsome and perniciouse foode Of such one must make no account no more then of that growing out of the Sunne within the the interior parts of thicke treees or in shadow vallies nor of that which is wet by raines or dewes but rather it behoueth to reiect them as infected not vsing them at al
