SA BAKER THE VVEAPON-SALVES MALADIE THat which hath beene said in the precedent Chapter concerning the opinion of Caesar Magatus and Ludovicus Septalius of the Cure of Wounds puts mee in minde of that Oyntment which is commonly called the Weapon-Salve For as the greene Wounds of the flesh as is said in the precedent Chapter are healed without much adoe and without the frequent opening of the Wound or applying many Salves onely by the benefit of meere Nature just so those Wounds which are thought to bee Cured by the Weapon-salve I think to bee cured by the help of Nature onely But since some others determine the contrary let us in this place consider what is to be thought of this Weapon-Salve And first of all wee will lay downe the severall descriptions of this Weapon-Salve and then the use of it and then the things they use to produce in its defence Most men attribute this Vnguent to Paracelsus or affirme it certainly to be divulged by him The description of Paracelsus Paracelsus himself Archidox Magicae lib. 1. giveth this description of it Take Scull-Mosse two Ounces Mummy halfe an ounce Mans fat two ounces Mans blood halfe an ounce Linseed Oyle two Drams Oyle of Roses and Bole Armoniack of each one ounce Mixe them together and make an Oyntment Into the which hee puts a Stick dipp'd in the Blood of the wounded person and dryed and bindeth up the wound with a rowler dipt every day in the hot Vrine of the wounded person For the annointing of the Weapon hee addes moreover Honey one ounce Bulls fat one dram Porta his description of it c.
