mollifieth and stayeth flux of humours ℞ Medullae sem. Cucurb ℥ ii Sem.

But if the Combustion be in the Face the Sope is not to be nsed by reason of the eyes but in the place adde the waters of Roses and Plantaine Defensives also in the beginning are to be applyed and Rowlers wet in water and vinegar that the violent flux of humours may be stayed But if the affected part be inflamed and chiefely if the Veynes Arteries are contracted by the fire then Defensives are not so well approved of except they have some power to resolve viz. such as are these Beane Flower Flower of Lupins of wheat and the powder of Camomile Flower c. mix them let the Patient and let the body be purged with fit purges according to the nature of the humour predominating also open a Veyne and apply Cupping glasses concerning which take the counsell of a Physitian When the Flowing of Humours and blood is stayed then Defensives are left off whereby the spirits and nutriment may the better passe to the affected part and to divide and separate the Escarre Wherefore the learned Chirurgion which is the Hand-maid of Nature ought every day as much as possibly he can without paine to seperate some of the Escarre and afterward let him apply the forewritten Ointment of Sweet Butter thereto Also this following fomentation hath no little power to ease paine mollifie the skin and helpe digestion ℞ Radicum altheae ℥ ii Sem.
