and_o field_n and_o in_o my_o conceit_n have_v leave_v few_o needful_a point_n for_o a_o good_a falconer_n untouchte_v or_o treat_v of_o now_o i_o shall_v not_o do_v amiss_o nor_o wander_v over_o wide_o from_o my_o purpose_n if_o i_o say_v somewhat_o of_o spaniel_n without_o the_o which_o a_o falconer_n special_o use_v to_o flee_v the_o field_n can_v be_v without_o maim_n of_o his_o pastime_n and_o impair_v of_o his_o gallant_a glee_n and_o again_o for_o that_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o many_o disease_n and_o plague_n as_o we_o common_o term_v they_o for_o dog_n and_o long_o than_o they_o be_v without_o infection_n we_o may_v expect_v from_o they_o no_o pleasure_n assistance_n or_o recreation_n i_o will_v only_o in_o this_o treatise_n describe_v you_o their_o harm_n with_o cure_n due_a to_o the_o same_o among_o all_o which_o i_o place_v the_o mangy_a first_o as_o the_o capital_a enemy_n to_o the_o quiet_a and_o beauty_n of_o a_o brane_z spanell_n wherewith_o they_o poor_a dog_n be_v oftentimes_o great_o plague_v both_o to_o the_o infection_n of_o their_o fellow_n and_o the_o no_o slender_a grief_n of_o their_o master_n the_o way_n to_o cure_v and_o discharge_v a_o spaniel_n of_o the_o mangy_a mangy_a be_v to_o anoint_v he_o either_o at_o the_o fire_n or_o in_o the_o sun_n thrice_o every_o other_o day_n with_o a_o unguent_n make_v of_o barrow_n flicke_a one_o pound_n common_a oil_n three_o ounce_n brimstone_n well_o bray_v four_o ounce_n salt_n well_o beat_v and_o bruise_a ash_n well_o sift_v and_o sierce_v of_o either_o two_o ounce_n boil_v all_o these_o in_o a_o kettle_n or_o pot_n of_o earth_n mingle_v they_o well_o together_o till_o the_o barrow_n flicke_fw-mi be_v incorporate_a and_o well_o compound_v with_o the_o rest_n with_o this_o unguente_fw-la thus_o make_v and_o confect_v anoint_v and_o besmear_v all_o the_o body_n of_o your_o spaniel_n and_o every_o other_o part_n of_o he_o shift_v his_o litter_n and_o kennel_n often_o the_o often_o the_o better_a and_o last_o have_v thus_o do_v wash_v he_o over_o and_o over_o with_o good_a strong_a lie_n and_o it_o will_v mortify_v and_o kill_v the_o mangy_a but_o if_o perhaps_o as_o common_o it_o fall_v out_o the_o spaniel_n lose_v she_o hear_v though_o it_o proceed_v not_o of_o the_o force_n of_o this_o unguent_n and_o strong_a medicine_n yet_o it_o shall_v be_v very_o good_a to_o bathe_v your_o spaniel_n shred_v his_o hair_n in_o this_o order_n with_o the_o water_n of_o lupin_n or_o hop_n and_o to_o anoint_v he_o with_o stale_a barrow_n flicke_a this_o medicine_n over_o and_o beside_o that_o it_o cure_v and_o quit_v the_o mangy_a it_o also_o make_v the_o spaniel_n skin_n beautiful_a &_o fair_a to_o look_v to_o and_o kylle_n the_o fly_n the_o dog_n disquieter_n and_o enemy_n to_o his_o ease_n but_o when_o this_o foresay_a remedy_n be_v not_o of_o force_n sufficient_a to_o rid_v the_o mangy_a but_o that_o it_o spredde_v and_o get_v great_a power_n and_o dominion_n over_o your_o spaniel_n then_o do_v it_o behoove_v you_o to_o devise_v a_o far_o strong_a medicine_n which_o be_v to_o take_v of_o strong_a vinegar_n two_o quarte_n strong_a or_o as_o much_o as_o will_v suffice_v common_a oil_n six_o ounce_n brimstone_n three_o ounce_n suit_n of_o a_o chimney_n or_o pot_n a_o quantity_n of_o six_o ounce_n bray_v salt_n and_o serce_v two_o handful_n boil_v all_o these_o aforesaid_a in_o the_o vinegar_n use_v the_o former_a order_n of_o anoint_v your_o spaniel_n in_o the_o summer_n tyme._n if_o neither_o of_o these_o remedy_n aforesaid_a will_v serve_v the_o turn_n then_o for_o a_o last_o refuge_n you_o must_v be_v drive_v to_o practice_v with_o a_o far_o strong_a than_o either_o of_o both_o but_o in_o any_o wise_a this_o medicine_n must_v not_o be_v minister_v in_o the_o cold_a of_o winter_n for_o it_o will_v then_o put_v the_o spaniel_n in_o great_a hazard_n of_o death_n mangy_a take_v quick_a silver_n as_o great_a a_o quantity_n as_o shall_v suffice_v and_o mortify_v it_o with_o stale_a barrow_n flicke_a or_o lord_n as_o if_o i_o shall_v set_v you_o down_o this_o proportion_n of_o quick_a silver_n two_o ounce_n barrowes_n grease_n ten_o ounce_n mingle_v they_o well_o together_o until_o they_o be_v incorporate_v with_o this_o unguent_n anoint_v your_o spaniel_n in_o the_o sun_n tie_v he_o afterward_o for_o the_o space_n of_o a_o hour_n in_o the_o sun_n to_o the_o end_n the_o unguent_n may_v sink_v in_o and_o pierce_v the_o deep_a then_o wash_v he_o twice_o with_o black_a soap_n and_o observe_v this_o order_n of_o anoint_v he_o every_o other_o day_n twice_o or_o thrice_o assure_o you_o shall_v rid_v he_o of_o all_o manginess_n whatsoever_o it_o be_v but_o i_o must_v tell_v you_o this_o by_o the_o way_n that_o this_o unguente_fw-la of_o quick_a silver_n will_v cause_v she_o hear_v to_o fail_v away_o wherefore_o it_o shall_v be_v requisite_a every_o three_o or_o four_o day_n to_o anoint_v he_o with_o stale_a bacon_n grease_n for_o that_o will_v present_o make_v his_o hair_n to_o grow_v and_o come_v again_o if_o a_o spaniel_n be_v not_o very_o much_o infect_v with_o the_o mangy_a unguent_n then_o be_v it_o and_o easy_a matter_n to_o cure_v
