a red oyle most excellent for all inward Hemerodes or issues of bloud and to strengthen the bowels if one drop be mixed with conserue of Roses or Comferie or giueu with wine The filinges of Iron first well washed you shall calcine with the flower of Sulphure or dissolue with strong water then poure on very sharpe vineger and set it on a warme place certain dayes then reuerberate it with an open fire as Arte commaundeth one whole day gathering alwaies the flowres which remaine aboue vntill all be conuerted into a very red and light powder After the same maner you shall make the Balme oyle and Crocus of Copper out of the which with the sowre fleame of vitrioll circulating all artificially you shall draw a blewshing vitrioll whose qualities we haue described in another place Out of Saturne calcined is drawne a sweetish salt in Balneo with distilled vineger powring it so often vppon the Feces vntill it draw no more The menstrew euaporated the salt remayneth in the bottome which by often dissolutions and coagulations is made Christaline and afterward easily dissolued into oyle being set in a moyst place But if you circulate this Christaline salt in a Pelli●●n with the alcoole of wine 15. dayes and after take away the menstrew by distillation and put to new wine and circulate it pu●ting to a fit dose of christaline salte of Tartar you shall make a Balme sweeter then sugar which wil marueilously preuaile against all maligne vlcers and diseases of the eyes Decoct Antimonie made in powder with a capitall lye prepared of Tartar calcined and Sope ashes and quicklime the space of one houre then let it coole pouring vpon it a little Vineger and there will appeare a certaine rednesse swimming vpon which you shall gather then againe let it boyle for one houre or two againe let it coole and gather that which swimmeth vp Doe this so often vntill there appeare no more rednesse For it is the sulphure of Antimonie whiche dried at a softe fire you shall keepe to good vses Mingle Antimonie with sugar and alum and put all into a Retort of glasse make a soft fire for foure or fiue houres afterward increase it and there will come out an oyle red like bloud It is also done with Mercurie sublimate but great heede is to be taken least anie error be committed in the degree of fire Boyle sulphure prepared with oyle of Lynseede with a verie soft fire and it will be like bloud congealed Let the matter coole put it into a Retort and giue it fire and there will distill out of a verie red oyle of sulphure It is also done if you mingle bran with your sulphure and distill it Take of sulphure Viue P. i. with which mingle with a soft fire so much pure vitrioll molten that it may be one body Distill this by a discensorie and there will descend a red oyle into the receiuer If one pound of the flower of sulphure be mixed with two or three pound of oyle of Turpentine in a drye heate the flowres will dissolue into a red oyle Then the menstrew rightly and artificially separated circulate the Rubin of sulphure with the Alcoll of wine eight dayes and you shall haue oyle of sulphure that hath the qualities of the naturall Balme The sowre oyle of sulphure is made of sulphure by setting it on fire and hanging ouer it a Bell or a large glasse head to keepe the vapours which are conuerted into that sowre oyle Put vitrioll beaten into powder into a Cucurbite giuing it a fire of the second degree and there will issue a sowre water which is called the fleame of vitrioll Take the Feces which remaine in the bottome of the vessell which is called Colcothar stampe that and if you mingle flintes with all with a violent fire there will come out a red oile It is also made with the simple Colcothar driuen out with a violent fire three dayes space and the●e will come forth a verie hot oile which is made sweete by circulation with the sp●rit of wine Tartarizated But if the Colcothar be dissolued in warme water and the rednesse in it separated and the water euaporated the Colcothar will remaine sweetish that which remaineth the rednesse being taken away is called Creta Vitrioli But if Vitrioll be drawne by the ninth a Limbeck powring on alwayes the liquor vpon the dead head and after circulating all by the space of eight dayes You shall haue the spirit of Vitrioll verie profitable for many things The fleame of Allum is made like the fleame of Vitrioll But Allum is prepared if the fleame be fiue times powred vpon the Feces out of which it was drawne and distilled last of all driue out all the fleame vntill it be drie Make brine of salt into which cast hot burning stones that they may be imbybbed those stones so imbybbed put into a Retort giuing fire by degrees there will come forth a very hot oyle of salt I said before that there was great force in Butyro Arsenici fixo to cure all venemous and maligne vlcers it is made in this manner Mingle Christaline Arsenick first subblimed with onely Colcothar which doth keepe backe his poison with like waight of salt of Tartar and salt Peter put al into two glasses and fixe it giuing fire the space of xxiiii houres first very gentle then of the highest degree You shall finde the matter very white fixed resembling the colour of Peerles which dissolue in warme water that you may draw the Alcoly from it And the powder which remaineth unbybbe with oile of Tartar or of Talcum which is better drie it at the fire and do this thrise Againe dissolue the matter in warme water that you may take away his salt and there will remaine a very white pouder and fixed which will dissolue in a moist place into a fate oile which is anodinum like butter Out of Talcum rightly and artificially calcined is drawne the spirite with distilled vinegar This is dissolued into a precious oyle being set in a moist place Take of the iuice of Aristolochia Rotundae and Sanin ana ℥ iiii Serpentariae ii ounces spirit of wine one pound circulate them first the space of xxiiii houres then distill them of this water take one pound of elect Magnes made into pouder iiii ounces circulate them togither and distill away the water from the Feces reiterate this three times and by this meanes you shall obtaine the preparation of Magnes But because as we haue said y e noblest parts are to be strengthned and the heart the principall organ of life must alway be defended these preparations following are to be vsed Take of Theriacae of Alexandriae ii ounces and a halfe the best Myrrhe i. ounce and a halfe Saffron ii drams the spirite of wine vi ounces mingle all these and in

remedies After this you shall fasten some tent with a threed and put it in the hollownes of the wound of such length as shall seeme meetest to keep● alwayes the mouth of the wounde open that the inward parts being purged and clensed may by litle and litle incarnat before the orofice be quite growne togither least otherwise the filth within might be stopped Moreouer whiles the sicke is a healing he must eschew the cold aire for nothing is more hurtfull to such wounds and if both sides be perced you must put tents in both holes and by so much the more keepe them open the longer that the matter way the easier haue issue But if that Callus happen to growe as sometimes it doth apply such remedies as hereafter shalbe declared As concerning his diet let him keepe such as is prescribed in other wounds that is cold dry and sclēder but let him abstaine from astringent and sharpe meates and that from the beginning because they moue the cough and bring shortnesse of breath which thing commonly doth greatly hurt the seely sicke patient contrariwise such things as comfort the brest are very good as figges raisons picked barly and other like and blood-letting also is very good and euacuation by glister and otherwise if the body be filled with ill iuice The like in all points is to be obserued in wounds of the belly thecuration of which is not vnlike to the cure of other wounds by shot which we haue set downe already although these vulner ary potions are more in vse in that in the partes they more perfitly worke and shew their strength And such potious must bee mixed as intentions shall require and more strengthners must be vsed if any nutritiue part be hurt as the liuer and splene which also is good to foment outwardly and sometimes such wounds are cured by giuing fit glisters when they shall touch the lower parts but if the perce the body and hurt the backe bone then you must vse these remedies which wee haue prescribed in wounds of the heade and the like iudgement is to bee giuen if the marrow of the backe come forth as was before touching the braine But because it oftentimes happeneth that the shotte is drawne from the vpper parts lower and so sticketh in some member and commeth not out in which case the filth and matter cannot haue issue out then it must be wayed where the shot may without daunger be taken out by the lower way which the easier may bee done if you may feele it with your fingers for y t wayes it may far better be taken out as we said before where we intreated of taking out things infixed but if that cannot be then must we vse compressions and hard bindings that there by the corruption may come forth the h●tter for by pressing of it toward the or●●ee it issueth the better also iniections are good for these ●●●ewy woundes because other medicines cannot reach the bottome of them but you must giue indeuour that you leaue none thereof in the wound but draw it vp againe with your spout which cast it in In these kinds of wounds tents made of sponges are very good because they draw corruption and sucke it in and dry the wound But because oftentimes the lippes of the wound ware hard which letteth perfite consolidation you shall therefore vse the remedies following for they are most fitin this case and for all fistulaes neither shall you need to vse hot irons the which extreme remedy the common Chyrurgeons are wont to apply Ad callum fistulas curandas Take oile of hony drawne by heate of fire ℥ ii oile of saturne and mercury sublimate anaʒi olei petr and of cl●ues anaʒi ss let them be ioyned togither with turpentine and with tentes or plegets and apply to the wound Another excellent for the same Take Antimoni ℥ iii. of mercuyie sublimate ℥ i. ss mellis ℥ vi mixe all togither and distill them in a retor● according to art with a small fire there will issue an oile most ex●ellent to cure al callous and mallgne vl●ers fistulaes cankers and also Gangrena CHAP. V. The order to correct such accidents as happen to these wounds ALllearned Phisitions do grant that those greenous accidents which doe greatly diminish ouerthrow the strength of y e bodie are first to be cured letting passe for a while the proper curation of the wound and the curation of these accidentes is not as an accident but as the cause of pulling downe strength or any other grieuous affection Therefore great paine intempery impostumation pals●es Gangrena seuers cramp̄es and Sphacelus because they are weightie and daungerous accidents and do often happen to the wounds must out of ha●de bee remedied in that they ●●●●ken strength and bring perillous diseases in this case therefore y ● method must be altered least by the violence of these accidents the patient be killed o● else through the crueltie thereof he be sore vexed and let the curation beginne where the siche is in most danger for thither the Phisition ought to direct his comming for no wound can perfectly be cured except first suche accidentes be driuen away Therefore I haue thought it good to discourse of them all with a fit method and order and with few wordes to prescribe to eche hys proper remedie Of griefe We asswage paine with onodinis or els with paregoricis medicamentis which are temperate agreeable to our bodies and hold in the first degree and of a thinne substance and this we doe with fometation and lynaaments Fomentations are made with the decoction of the root of hollihocke sheepes heades mallowes of the flowers of Mullein camomill mellilote of the seedes of linen fenigrecke and milke Lynaments are made of y e Macilage seminum psillij fenigreck and of hollihock of butter capons grease and bawsons grease of oesypo and oyle of visci pomorum Also Narcotica asswage paine by henumming the feeling of the member and making at first that it cannot feele the raging of the paine we vse such when through great paine the strength is wasted and feare of swounding draweth on and when the payne comes of great inf●amation Take the rotes of the henbane and waters lilies ana lb. s digest them in the sonne with vineger of roses and oyle of Nenuphar for a fewdayes then straine it and therewith foment the place agreeued warme and after annoynt with this lineament Take the iuice of the leaues of henbane and senegrene ana ℥ ii olei visci pomorum nenuphar ana ℥ i. ss freshe butter ℥ ii mixe them and make thereof a lineament and let the wise Phisition alwaies marke this that he be very carefull to asswage paine for it alwaies prognosticateth some ill and let this suffise for that we haue prescribed manie medicines before this intention Of distemperature If a whote distemperature do molest the wounded part which is easily knowne by paine and blistering thereof then

ashes with a very soft fire distill it circulate that which is distilled in Balned eight dayes and then distill it againe This water hath a excellent qualitie against the plague and al venemous things and doth maruellously strengthen the heart We haue shewed the extraction of the Tincture of golde Corals naturall Balme and the essence of Perle in the booke which I wrote of preparation now resteth for vs to speake of the golde of life which all shall know to be the most excellent and extreame medicine in cuting all diseases which do but consider the singular excellencie of gold in the cure of the leprosie Aurum vitae is made many wayes for being calcined after the Spagerick manner it is made light and spungcous which cannot be reduced again from which with distilled vinegar it is drawn the salt in Balneo whose qualities by circulations with the spirit of wine are so increased that they seeme to be incredible for the curing of innumerable diseases Calcine gold made into thinne plates so oft with salt preparate by a Philosophicall calcination vntill it be made vnpalpable the salt by dissolutions being seperated from the Alcoole of gold then calcine it againe with very white sugred salt and to this mixture powre of the spirite of wine alcolyzat with his proper salt According to the precepts of arte that it may couer it ouer onely foure fingers then set on fire that the alcooll may burne and this you shall do oftentimes then powre on new alcooll of wine and circulate all rightly and decently the space of foure dayes Then separate the menstrew with compotent distillation and powre on new againe circulating and distilling as you did before so often vntill all the substance of golde bee carried out of the Limbecke The menstrewe being separated as it ought the golde of life will remaine in the bottome the most excellent and best of all secretes Omnibussed pancis luceo FINIS A TABLE OF THE MOST ESPECIALL tinges contained in this Booke A Aire is the most moist thing Pagina 21.
