 after let him blood in the Neck, and if the blood be good, 

 thca take not above a quart at moll from him, but if it be

 prefently put up into the fame Noftril a long Goofe-fea- 

 ther dipped firft in Oyi-de-Bay, ftirring the Feather up and

 fnufF forth the Vifcous Corruption which remaineth in his 

 Head. Keep him all the time warm, and let his drink be

 timies made tryal, and it is fpecial good as well for Glanders^
