face juft under his eyes with a very fmall French Rowel the breadth 

 of a three-pence at the moll, and let it be turned every day oncej 

 the fpace of 1 2 or 1 5 daies, then take forth the Rowel^ and heal 

 up the Orifice with the green ointment prefcribcd you in Ub.i. 

 cap. 10. feii, 4.-G'. and this will undoubtedly very much help his

'^ Shave away the ^4?> the breadth of a fhillingoneither fiucof

 charge. 



Take Taca-Mahaca, and lay it upon thole places which were 

 {haven, and clap upon them flocks of the fame colour, then 

 make incilion, and put in two Frer^ch Rowels, as is fliewed in the 

 cure going before to bring down the peccant humours.^ and lec 

 the eyes be wafhed twice every day with the medicine before / 

 taught you, made of ground-Ivy, Honey, Celendi^ie and wc- 

 mans milk, ^^* This is very good for this difeafe, and this I
