The manner to take Bezoar stone, and what it is worth a graine.

FOrasmuch as we treat of Ptisans simple, wee may also shew the manner to take the Bezoar stone. Take foure, sixe, eight, or tenne graines, or more of good Bezoar in powder, the which put in a spoone and powre upon it a little Ptisan or juyce of Lymons and mixe it together and so take it. Also I give you to know, that the best Bezoar will cost but two pence the graine; and I councell those that hold the vul∣gar opinion, that it is good against small Pocks, Measells, Feavers, Purples, and many other diseases to buy it at the druguists, two drams or halfe anounce you may have a dram for seven shillings, & it will serve for your family and to give to the poor seeing it costes so little.
