must be taken before the binding that is a precept in the regiment and order of meate for that it is required to the preseruation of health that the meate be measured in qualytie quantytie time order Adding also vnto these conditions that the Meate be good and well dressed Which rule is gathered of the contrarie to wit that one contrarie be brought to a iust temperature by his contrarie as are the qualeties swéet by sower drie by moist cold by warmthe and sutch like aboue recited Chap. 4. Of a conuenient place to feede in ACcording to the aduertisement of Auicen in his Canticles we ought to haue a speciall regard to the place wherin we féede that it be quiet and colde and through blowne with the winde and that it be so at the time and houre when wee intend to feede therin And therfore in this poynt it behooueth a man to be dylygent Auerrois the Commentarie writer saieth that we must looke to this most especially in Summer because then erternall heat wéekeneth naturall heat lyke as the shining of the Sunne putteth out the fire if it come to it and yet when the fire is once come into the shadowe it reuiueth againe And Rhasis in the place aboue recited willeth vs to eate our meate at coole times and if case we cannot get a colde place yet to watch a colde time to féede in and so after that we be refreshed we may sléepe and take our rest Chap. 5. Of Meates and Drinkes wheron wee feede at the Table HEreafter wée haue to intreate of such meats and drinkes as are for the most part vsed at the Table And first of Bread Rhasis writeth vpon the third Booke of Almansor sayinge Breade that is made of Wheat is in many respectes most conuenient f●r men especially if it be wel seasoned wel leauened well ●aked fine ground purely clensed although it be then sumwhat hard of concoction And Auicen sheweth the cause why it is so saying that the better it is boulted the easier it is of disgestion and so m●tch the harder how mutch the more it is ful of Bran. And the cause is for that the bran hindreth the passedge and the slipperinesse of the voydinge of it And that is the best bread whiche is baked in an Ouen temperatly seasoned and leauened and made light that when it is cut it be hollow like a spunge Moreouer Rhasis in the place before alleadged affirmeth the vnleauened bread is hard to disgest and discendeth slowly out of the stomack causinge griping in the bellie obstruction in the liuer and procureth grief in th● kidneis Hée saith also that Barlie bread is colder then Wheaten of small nutriment ingendring windynesse the collick and other colde diseases maketh a man costiffe The bread of other kinds of graine is of qualitie according to the nature of the graine of which it is made Auicen saith let no Man eate Bread while it is hot but when it is one night olde Chap. 6. Of Wine and the qualyties thereof WYne as Isaac sayeth in the thirde booke of dietes causeth good nutriment bringeth health to the body and preserueth the same And there is no drink nor meate to be founde so comfortable vnto naturall heate by reason of a certen famyliaritie with it for naturally it strengthneth disgestion The heate therof is lyke vnto naturall heate and therfore it is soone conuerted into naturall and most pure bloud It claryfieth thick bloud serching the passadges of the whole body but specially of the veines and clenseth them it openeth the Liuer it taketh away darke smokinesse whiche ingendereth heauinesse repelling the same from the hart it comforteth al parts of the body it causeth the minde to forget sorow and griefe it bringeth mirth it maketh hardie it sharpneth the wit. Wherfore it is conuenient for all ages all seasons all cuntreis being receaued according to the custome of him that drinketh the Wine as so much his nature is able to beare Thus is it manifest that Wine is good for all men if they take it moderatly And therefore in ould times Wine was likened vnto the great triacle and to the Nature therof For it heateth colde bodies and cooleth hot it moistneth the drie and drieth the moist And many times it quencheth the thirst more then water Rhasis in the fore alleaged place of his third booke saith thus Wine generally heateth the stomack and liuer making passedge for the nutriment it also increaseth blood and fleash and augmenteth naturall heate helping nature to accomplish her peculiar functions By Wine digestion beecommeth stronger superfluities are expulsed and the passedge made easie for their riddance By wine health is permanēt and strength abideth oldage kept away Wine also maketh the soule merie but if it bée immoderatly taken it hurteth the Liuer braine and Sinewes it breadeth the Trembling the Palsie and Apoplexie and bringeth suddein death Chap. 7. Of Meade and the properties therof THe drinke which is made of Honie cōmonly called Meade by the auctorytie of Rhasis is verie hot ingendring redde Choler It agreeth not with hot complexions but it is verie conuenient for colde temperatures Auerrois also vpon the Canticles of Auicen saith that Mead is better then wine for sutch as haue naturall féeble sinewes Chap. 8. Of strong or double Ale. DOuble Ale saith Rhasis in the place aboue recited chiefly which is made of Barly hurteth the sinewes maketh the head to ake filleth the bodie with winde but it prouoketh vrine and represseth the heate which cummeth of drunkennesse But that Ale which is made of wheate hauinge in it Mintes and Smaledge well burned ▪ is supposed to bée better for all men but especially it is forbidden them that are hot in the Sun and conuersant abroade and of hot disposition and in an hot time of the yéere Chap. 9. Of fleash in generall IT is confirmed by the auctority of Rhasis in the place before alleaged that of all nutriments Fleash nourisheth most soonest fatteth and strengthneth And those that vse it mutch haue full bodies and haue néede to bée let blood often and specially if they drinke wine with it Generally all fleash heateth and is counted vnméete for those that haue an Ague and are troubled with replecion Fleash that is red without fat nourisheth more then that which hath fat for it ingendreth lesse superfluitie and strengthneth the stomack more Course fleash which is of grosse substance is fit for sutch as laboure and fine fleash for those that vse small exercise Chap. 10. Of the fleash of wilde beastes EVerie beast generally according to the diuision of Isaac in his third booke of Dietes is either wilde or tame The Fleash of wilde beasts is drie and hard of digestion and yéeldeth discommendable iuce by reason of their ouermutch motion and exercise which they vse and the heat and drieth of the aire wherin they abide hapning through the vehement

for them that haue a hot stomack and Liuer The Liuer is hot and moist heauie and hard of digestion Isaac saith that it ingendreth good blood but specially of young beastes that suck But the Liuer of a Hen or Capon is better then of sucklinges The Hart as hée saith is of an hard substance and is slowly digested but being well digested it nourisheth mutch The lights also saith hée is easely concocted and soone departeth foorth of the stomack by ●eason of the lightnes and rarenes of the substance therof The Kidneis are naughty in two resp●●tes the one is for the hardnes grossenes of their substance the other is for that they be nourished by the fattines of the vrine wherby they ingender grosse and very éeuell blood Rhasis in the place aboue cited saith that read fleash without fat ingendreth dry blood making but small excrementes and nourisheth more then fat Fat ingendreth very moiste blood causeth mutch superfluity and nourisheth but litle Fleash interlarded béetwéene fat and leane ingendreth temperate blood The féete augment slimie iuce The foremost part of the rumpe is lighter and hotter and the hinder-most heauier and colder Chap. 18. Of Fleash in Pasties and Pies FLeash sayth Rhasis which is baked in Pasties and Pies is éeuell and nourisheth litle but is good for them that haue the sower belchyng And generally all sortes of Pasties and Pies yéelde but litle nourishment in comparison of meates made with brothes Yet many times they do good to them that are full of humours pleasure them that would dry vp and make their bodies proper Fleash rosted on the spit is grosse and nourisheth mutch if it méet with a stronge and a hot stomack to digest it it bindeth the belly whiche is manifestly prooued if a man eate the leane only without fat Fleash boyled with Egges and Pepper is hot and is a good meate for winter for it strengthneth the body and nourisheth aboue al other meats it increaseth also séede and bloud It maketh a man well coulered strong and well set But in Summer it bringeth lothsomnesse heateth and bréedeth the stone Chap. 19. Of Foules in generall AL Foules generally as Isaac reporteth are lighter and finer then the beasts that go on the earth but they nourish lesse And the wilde Foules are better then the tame foules their fleash is more tender ●asier of digestion The cause wherof is the lightnes and rarenes or their fleash procéeding of their often flying and the drinesse of the ayre But the tame Foules nourish more and make commendable blood and are more temperate by reason of the good temperature of their moysture and exercise But aboue all foules these are the finest the Stare younge Pertredges and house chickens and next vnto them the elder Pertredge the Feasant the house Hen and the Capon Chickens are lighter of digestion then other Foules and ingender good blood They comfort the appetite and vnto all natures and complexions they are most agreeable especiall the Cockrel chickens nietheir to fat nor to leane And Auerrois in the fift of his Collections writeth thus amonge Foules the Hen is principall insomutch that the broth thereof is good Medicine for those that haue the Leprosie and some say that a Hens Braine augmenteth the substance of a mans braine and sharpneth the wyt Chap. 20. Of the Hen. THE House Hen saith Isaac ▪ is not althing so moist as is the Chick for that cause if it be compared to the temp●rament of the chickins it is hard of digestion but if it be wel digested it nourisheth mutch and specially if it bée shewed or boyled in fine broth by which orderinge it taketh a certaine moistur of the water and comforteth the stomack and yéeldeth much nutriment Moreouer mine aucthour Rhasis in the place often before alleaged saith thus The fleash of the Stare is fownde by experience to be best of all other foules and most fit for those that meane to liue with a fine and subtile diet Next to this is the fleash of the Quayle which ingendreth but litle superfluitie and is supposed not to be very hot Then after this cumth the fleash of Chickens and next of Pertredges which is more grosse bindinge the belly and nourishinge mutch Chap. 21. Of yong Pigeons YOung Pigeons are very hot ingendringe inflamed blood and soone bringing an ague And Isaac mine auctour saith that yong Pigeons are hot and full of moisture wherfore they make grosse nutriment a witnesse wherof is their heauines and ●naptnes to flye but when they béegin to flye they waxe lighter and more acceptable to digestion they bée méete for flegmatick persons but naught for the collericke And also as the same writer saith Duckes are the woorst of al foules for their fleash saith Rhasis ingendreth mutch superfluity and destroieth apetite and is very warme but if nourisheth more then Hennes fleash doth To conclude the fleash of all water foules in generall bréedeth mutch superfluitye and if it haue therwith an éeuell sauour thē is it iudged much the woorse Chap. 22. Of partes of foules as they bee eaten THe Giserd of all foules saith Isaac is full of sinewes and hard of digestion but béeing digested it make mutch nutriment But of all Gisardes the Gooses is best bicause of the plentie of moisture in it and next vnto that is the Hennes or Capons Gisard Likewise their Liuers is best commended and most nourishing The Winges of all foules are better then any other part of the body bicause of their often moouing and exercise for moouing consumeth the superfluitye of moisture The Gooses and Hennes neckes are best of all other foules neckes and all partes of carued foules are better then of the stoned which maketh the Capon to bée most excellent and to yéelde best nutriment and to ingender perfect blood The Braines of foules are lesse moist and slimy but drier then of foure footed beasts and therfore more to be lyked chiefly of young Stares Partredges Hennes Cockes before they crowe or come to bée carued Chap. 23. Of Egges and their properties FOrasmutch as Egges saith Isaac do yéeld mutch nutriment for that their whole substance is conuerted into good iuce by reason of the affinity which they haue to mans nature and specially the yolke therfore in respecte of their temperament they bée most like vnto mans body In this qualitye saith Rhasis aboue the rest are Hen egges and Pertredges egges both which augment séede in man woonderfullye and prouoke him to Lechery next vnto which are Ducke egges in goodnesse not mutch inferiour but makinge éeuell iuce Géese egges are lothsome haue an éeuell smell Hen egges and Pertredge egges are most temperate and conuenient The yolke being temperate in heat causeth good nutriment The white is cold and slimy and hardly concocted But concerning the yolke Auerrois vpon the Canticles of Auicen sheweth how some bee of opinion that it ingendreth as mutch
