Of Worms breeding in the Hurts and Mangy 

 parts of a Spaniel. 



Thefe worms do hinder the cure of the mange or 

 wounds, caullng them to continue at one ftay, or to 

 grow worfe and worfe. To remove this hindrance, 

 take the gum of Ivy and convey it into the wound, and 

 let it there remain a day or two, wafhing the wound 

 with Wine ; and after that. anoint it with Bacon-greafe, 

 oil of Earth-worms, and Fvuc. 



The powder of wild Cucumbers is excellent good to 

 kill thefe worms, and will prove a good corrofive, alfo 

 eating away the dead flc(h, and incrcafing the good. 



If the worms be within the body, you mull deftroy 

 them in this manner : Caufe your Spaniel^ by fair 

 means or foul, when fafting., to eat the yolk of an egg 

 with two fcruples of Saffron pulverized and confedted 

 with the fame egg, keeping him after it falling till 

 night. 



When a Spaniel is hurt, as long as he can cc me to lick 

 the wound with his tongue he needs no other remedy > 

 his tongue is his bell Chirurgcon : but when he cannot 

 do that, then futh wounds as are not venomous you may 

 cure with the powder of Matrefdva dried in an oven, 

 or in the Sun. If it be a bite of a Fox^ anoint it with oil 

 wherein Eaith- worms and Rue have been boiled toge- 

 ther. If by a mad dog, let him lap twice or thrice of the 



broth
