as_o well_o to_o spring_v and_o retrieve_v a_o foul_a be_v fly_v to_o the_o mark_n as_o also_o diverse_a other_o way_n to_o assist_v and_o aid_v falcon_n and_o goshawkes_n wherefore_o see_v that_o

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 be_v to_o anoint_v he_o either_o at_o the_o fire_n or_o in_o the_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 spanell_n shr_v his_o hair_n in_o this_o order_n with_o the_o water_n of_o
