den with three cyaths of Atticke honey andone ounce of Saffion,to'a liniment, itis anexcellent G 
prefervative to keepe one from ever being bleare eyed, tf fobe the eyes be annointed with it. The: 
faid compoficion likewife is fingular for torid away the clondie filmes and catarracisthat breed — 
in the eye.Butforto clear the fight and quicken it,the olderthis medicine is,the better they hold 
it to be. And kept it muft bee ina brafen or copper box: which eyefalve they fay, ferveth alfo for 
the mailles or {pots, for the afperities,excrefcences,cicatrices,dents,and excavations remaining 
in the eyes. The gravie or dripping likewife of the Hyznes liver,newly taken out of the bodieand . 
rofted, beeing incorporat with clarified honey into an unguent,riddeth away the red filme that 
overcafteth the apple of the eye and darkeneth the fight thereof. They will make usbelecve,that 
the Hynes teeth are good forthe toothach, if the pained teeth be butrouched therewith, orif’ 
the faid teeth bee arraunged in order, and fo applied faft unto the patientsteeth, asthey may fit py 
every tooth in his head. The fhouldersalfo of the Hyzne are proper forto eafe the paines that 
lic in.our {houlders and armes both, fo they be fet likewife orderly and hanged clofe to the gree- 
ved parts. The teeth of the faid Hyzne plucked out of the left fide of the chaw,and bound up fure 
within a peece of afheepe or goats skin,is right foveraigneto be worne in manner of afcutcheon 
or ftomacher for to eafe the intollerable painesof the ftomacke. A difh of meat made of their.’ 
lungs and eaten, is foveraigne for the flux proceeding from afeeble ftomacke.Burif the fame bee 
burntand reducedinto afhes, and fo brought into the forme of a liniment with oile,andapplied. 
accordingly, ivcomforteth the ftomacke mightily. The pith or marrow taken ourof the backe, 
*FeleSome , bone along,and incorporat with old oile and *gall, is paffing good forthe nerves. The liver of 
read viel, tne Hyzene driveth away Quareane agues,in cafe the patient take three bits therof one afterano- I

Seale,put theretoa Buls gall,feeti them all together and make a cataplafme thereof, fpreading 
thefame upon apeece of a Hyznes skin, and applie it accordingly, you fhallfee how it will eafe 
the paine of che gout. The very gall likewife of this beaft mixed with the pouder of theftone Afi- 
us,is commended by them forto cure thefaid maladie. They that are fubje@t to trembling and 
tothecrampe, fuch alfoasbe given to leapeout of theirbeds, orare troubled with the beating 
and panting of the heart,ought to take and boilethe heart of the Hyzne, and eat one part ther- 
of, and with che other being burntto afhes and with the braines of the faid Hyene together re- 
duced into a jiniment,to annoint the greeved part, This compofition likewife ferveth to takea- 
way the haires of any place if it be annointed either withitalone,or els with the gall,andincafe 
one would not have them ever to come up againe,they oughtto be plucked up before, and then: 
the place to bee annointed, Thus they ule torid away the haires of the eyelids that bee trouble- 
fome. In like manner for the paines of the Joines,the feth about the Hyznes loines is prefcribed 
tobe eaten,and therewith oiletogether, andthe place alfo is to beerubbed well andbefineared. 
They fay moreover, thatif a woman which is barren,eat the eye of a Hyzene with Liquirice and 
Dill,fhe fhall prove fruicfull: and fo neare they go, as to promife fhe fhall conceive within three 
daies after, And(by their report) whofoever are haunted with fprites in the night feafon, and be 
affriglited with fuch bugbeares, ler them buttake one of the maifter teeth of the Hyzene,& weare 
itaboutthem tied by a linnenthred,they fhall be freed from all fuch fantafticall illufions. Thefe 
Magicians alfo give direction to thofe thatbee out of their witsand gone befides themfelves,to 
have a perfume made with the {moake of thofereeth,and to weare one of them hanging before 
the breaft, with the fat growing about the kidneies, or elfe with the liver or the skin. 1f a woman

beaft,and {even haires neither more nor lefle,together with a {tags pizzle;bind them all faft with- 
in the skin of a Bucke or Doe,and{oweare them hanging about her neck juft againft her breaft, 
fhe fhall nor flip an untimely fruit.Furthermore they promile in the behalfe of this beaft,that if 
aman or woman doe eat the genitall member of a Hyzne,according totheir fex, they fhall bee 
provoked to flefhly luft,how cold foever the man were before, and could norabideto embrace a 
woman, Over and befides, if the faid pizzle and fhap of this beaft bee kept in any houfe,together " 
wich a joint of theridge bone, skin & all as it groweth too, the whole familie fhall agree together
