Of woundes made with venemous Beastes,
as of the bytinge of a madde Dogge, or otherwyse.
Chapiter ix.
IF the wounde be made with the bytinge of a madde
dogge,* 1.1 (whych thou mayste knowe by this, a Henne
wyll not eate the breade that is infused or infected in
the wounde,* 1.2 and if she eate it, she dieth therof) my coun∣sell
is, that no Chirurgien go aboute to heale or consound
suche a wounde at the fyrste, but keepe it open .xl. daies at
the leaste, and in places where no danger is of such worke
to be doe••, it is good to make an actuall cautery, and putte
there to hotte medicines: as Salte and Musterde, mixed
with Hony, and make Phisicalle remedies, of the whych
thys vnder wrytten is the best. Rec. de Cinere cancrorum flu∣uialium
adustorū,* 1.3partes quinque, Gentianae, partes tres, terra sigi••¦latae,
partes sex. All these together make in fine poulder,
& geue the patiente euery day to drinke. drach. ii. the space
of a moneth, with the water wherein Crabbes or Crefi∣shes
are sodden: and after .xl. daies, make Consolidation
effectually. & this vnderstande likewise of al venemous woūds.
All these thinges considered, thou maiste surelye
procede in the cures of woūdes: & I leaue the
reste to thine owne discreation.
