iS The Dialogue of Iron 
The pꝛon ohayeth nothing but the Diamond, koꝛ it cannot 
Base moꝛe then yꝛon: for it dooth conſume it altogether. 
There is no mettal, which dooth receiue ſo much hurt with 
the ruſt as the yꝛon dooth, and much moze if it be tankered 
with the blood or mankinde, and allo after pou haue made it 
tleane again, it vou annoint it with the marrow ofthe Deere 
called the Hart, aꝛ with Ople sliue, oꝛ with Uineger min ⸗ 
gled with Alom. This the Cardinall faith. 
Montenana in his Counſell a hundzeth firtie one, dooth 
put fo; a great ſecret to kill oꝛ quenche fiftye times a peece 
ol ſterle in ſtrong Gineger and in that Gineger being made 
whot, to wet a courſe Linen cloth, and put it bpon the lungs 
and inner partes that are ſtopped, many dapes together, 
Senauaroſa. Michaell Sanauatola in the bodke bee made of Bathes, doth 
: fay, the pron maketh cold and dꝛyeth vp, whereby it is bin⸗ 
ding, and thereloꝛe it dooth dete yne, and the water that kil⸗ 
leth oꝛ quencheth the pron, hath the (aide vertues, and all the 
reſt that the yꝛõ hath, foꝛ the water receiueth into it his qua⸗ 
alen. lities, and vertues as Galen ſaith, that the water receiueth 
. the qualities ¢ bertuesofthe things that we put into them, 
82 ſodde in them, and they do the fame wooꝛkes that the ſaid 
thinges themſelues will do, the water which ktlleth oꝛ quẽ⸗ 
cheth the pron 02 ſteele dooth detayne, it cauſeth that the 
faxe aʒ runnings do ceaſe, and being put to the ruptures, it 
doth lodder them together, and ſhutteth them, it conſumeth 
the olds matter of the eyes. The pouder made of vꝛon 
doath looſe the wollen exe liddes, it taketh away the Rime 
from the eye, and doth make falt the gummes that are lole. 
Gabe there is a tent made and wet in this pouder prepared 
ae and put into the mouth ofthe Mother, it withholdeth any 
. manner of fluxe of it: and the like it booth by puttingit into 
the fluxe ot blood: that commeth from the Pyles. 
This Powder is good agaynſt the Aenome called 
Acovito, Dye Myne that quencheth pron oꝛ the 8 
Montenana.
