it is. Héereto Papias sayth, that if a man be vnder water with Oile in his mouth, and spouteth out that Oyle there in the water, all that is in the bottome and hid by the ground is the more cleere, and the more cléerly séene of him (put all ye oile as∣cend against his eyea,Additiō. by the force of the water, and so he shall see neuer a whit)Kinde, of Dise maketh good sauour in meate, and nourisheth light and easeth, refresheth, and comforteth weary bodies and lns, and softneth and slaketh harde sinewes, that be shronke or spilt with the crampe. And softeneth and ripeth Po∣stinnes that he harde, and namely Ly∣ny Oile, of Linne seede. Many diuerse Oiles he pressed out of manye diuerse things. And some oyle is simple, as oyle of Oliue, oyle of Nuts, oyle of Popy, oile of Almonds, of Raphens oile, of Linne séede Oile, of Hempe, and of other such. And some oile is medled and compouned, and thereof some is cold, and some is hot, some is binding, & some is constraining, and some laxing. For composition of hot things, is hotte Oyles and of colde, colde oile: and of buiding things, binding Otle: and of laratiue, laratine oyle: ther∣fore for diuerse causes of euills, diuerse Oyles shall be taken: as in cold causes and matter, Oyle de Bay, Oleum Lau∣rinum, Nardinom, and Puloguim, shalbe taken and in hot causes oyle of Roses, and oyle of Uiolets shall be taken, are other such. Oile may be so hot, that it shall breede the cauers, if the pulse veines, and and the pawme of the hands and the sales of the feete be hamd therewith, as oyle in the which Lyons flesh is sod, as it is sayd in Com∣pendeo Saernitant. Also oyle may be so colde, that it shal ony, the member that is haied therewith and stay it, so that it shal haue no feeling, as it fereth of oile of Mandragota, that is made of oyle, in the which Apples of Mandragota bee soone, or kepte long in. But among Oyles that bee so compounded, the tem∣perate Oyles he best and most medici∣nable.And of simple Oyles, Oyle of O∣liue is best both in meat and medicine, and then of nuts and of Almonds, & then Oile of popie: But that Oyle is more colde then the other foresaide Oiles, and more dry also, and is most made of black Popie seede, and breedeth sleepe, and hel∣peth against hot Postumes in the begin∣ning, and against chasing of the liuer, as Platearius sayeth. And other Oyles be lesse according to meate, for heauy smell and strong sauour, and be good and pro∣fitable to medicine, as Isaac sayth in Di∣etis. And generally in all Oyle is much aire and lightnesse Therefore fleeteth aboue al other liquors, and hath disdaine to be vnder other liquors. Oyle seaketh and spreadeth it selfe. And is therefore better kept in glasen vessell then in tréen vessell, or in vessell with many holes and pores. Oyle spotteth and inciteth clo∣thes that it toucheth, and maketh them smell thereof alway. Oyle shed in wa∣ter, fleeteth aboue in rounde drops, and then the water cannot be made all cleane of the fatnesse and sauour of the Oyle. Oyle with sharpe sauour and strong, weddeled with Amusca, or with the dragges, is not good so meats. For such greiteth vomiting and spewing, and cor∣rumpeth the mouth of the stomack. And Oyle slayeth Eres, and footlesse beasles with long and plyaunt bodyes, if it bee shed vpon them, as Aristotle sayth. And vineger turnesh them againe to life, if it be shed vpon them. And cleane Oyle hee∣peth bright won from rusting, if the yron be nonted therewith. If the Oyle be cor∣rupt or watrye sddled with Oile drasts, it destroieth & corrumpeth the yron that is nointed therewith as Plinius saith.Of Olcastio. cap. 113.OLeaster, is a wild Oliue tree & hath that name for it is like to the Oliue tree but the leause thereof be somwhat smaller then Oliue leaues. And this tree is barren and bitter, and not filled. And if a graffe of Oliue he graffed thereon it chaungeth the qualitie thereof, and turneth it into his owne analytie as I∣sidore sayth libro. 1. This Tree hath double dropping. The one is like to Gumme without anye biting qualitye: 0
