And they are put into all manner of counterpoisons and other like medicines, whether they be [ L] to be outwardly applied or to be inwardly taken, to which they giue an effectuall binding, and cer∣taine strengthning qualitie.

The oile doth mitigate all kindes of heat, and will not suffer inflammations or hot swellings to [ N] rise, and being risen it doth at the first asswage them.
