When the thigh or legge of a hawke is out of ioynt.
BY some outward accident many times the thigh or legge of a Hawke is become out of ioynt: wherefore it shal be ve∣ry necessary in this case, as soone as is possible, to set it in his right and naturall place againe, to the end that no matter nor fluxe of humor descend or distill to hinder the setting of it in ioynt againe, which must néeds ensue if it be not regarded in time. Which done, set the hawke in some such place where shée shall haue no occasion to bate or broile with her selfe, but bée at the greatest quiet and rest shee may, applying medicines that haue vertue to desiccate and strengthen the hurt member which you shall doe by bathing a linnen plegget, or a plegget of flax in the white of an Egge, Oyle of Roses, and Tur∣pentine, with two drams of Sanguis Draconis, and of A∣loes incorporated together, and binding it about the thigh or legge which is out of ioynt, and fastning ouer and aboue the said plegget a slender roller of linnen cloth, to conserue & kéepe
if the more firmely and stayedly in the place where you would haue it to remaine. Vsing the matter thus ten dayes together shifting and renuing the medicine euery two dayes once, to the end the plegget waxe not ouer drie and stiffe to the hurte member.
I can like very well withall, if before you apply this said medicine, you bath well the thigh or legge of the hawk with a reasonable warme lotion or bath made of Wine, roses dried, Myrthe, Sage, Comfrey, Camemill, and Rosemary: for these will warme and comfort the nerues and sinewes, and withall drie vppe such fluxe of humor as shall powre down vpon the lame and broosed member. [But aboue all, if you bath if wt the oyle of Swallowes & the oyle of Mandrag mixt together, it will take away all paine and tumor.]
