62. ^ The turne, and remedy therfor. 



There be beastes that wyll turne about, whan they 

 eate theyr meate, and wyll not fede, and is great 

 ieoperdy for fallynge in pyttes, dyches, or waters : and 

 it is bycause that there is a bladder in the foreheed 

 bytwene the brayne-panne and the braynes, the whiche 

 must be taken out, or els he shal neuer mende, but dye 

 at lengthe, and this is the remedy and the greatest cure 

 that can be on a beaste. Take that beast, and cast him 

 downe, and bynde his foure fete together, and with thy 

 thombe, thrust the beast in the foreheed, and where 

 thou fyndest the softest place, there take a knyfe, and 

 cut the skyn, three or foure inches on bothe sides 

 bytwene the homes, and as moche benethe towarde 

 the nose, and fley it, and turne it vp, and pyn it faste 

 with a pyn, and with a knyfe cut the brayne-pan .ii. 

 inches brode, and thre inches longe, but se the knyfe 

 go no deper than the thycknes of the bone for peryssh- 

 ynge of the brayne, and take away the bone, and than 

 shalt thou se a bladder full of water two inches longe 

 and more, take that out, and hurte not the brayne, and 

 thanne let downe the skynne, and sowe it faste there 

 as it was before, and bynde a clothe two or thre folde 

 vpon his foreheed, to kepe it from colde and wete .x,. or 

 •xii. dayes. And thus haue 1 seen many mended. But 

 if the beaste be fatte, and any reasonable meate vpon 

 hym, it is best to kyll hym, for than there is but lyttell 

 losse. And if the bladder be vnder the home, it is 

 past cure. A shepe wyll haue the turne as well as a 

 beast, but I haue seen none mended. 



' Warry- 

 brede.' 



63. ^ The warrybrede, and the remedy therfore. 



There be beastes that wyll haue warrybredes in dyuers 

 partes of theyr body and legges, and this is the remedy. 

 Cast hym downe, and bynde his foure fete together, and
