TAke Bayleaues, Bapherries, Betony, and Sticards, of each of them one handfull, seeth them in white wine, vntill the one halfe be consumed, (and for an old man vse Malmesey in stead of white wine) then take it, and put it into a vessell that hath a narrow mouth, and let the Patient hold his eare ouer it (being vnstopped) so that he may suffer it (the same not being too hote nor too colde) then take oyle of bitter Almonds, and let three or foure drops thereof fall into his eare. Let the Patient haue alwayes a locke of fine blacke wooll that groweth betweene the Sheepes legges, to stop his eare close withall, wherein, if he put a little Muske, it will be the better. This hath beene prooued by Tho. Steuens of Bushton.
