A hrief Difcourfe of the Cure of Maladies

accidents happening. 



HOw necefTary a thing a Spaniel is to Faulconry, and

 verized four ounces, Salt well beaten to powder, Aflies 

 well lifted and fearced, of each two ounces i boil all 

 thefe in a kettle or earthen-pot, and when they are all 

 well incorporated together, anoint your Spaniel with 

 this thrice every other day, either againft the Sun or

 you Ihift his kennel and litter often.
