Capons grease, an ounce of Oyle of Roses, an ownce of Oyle of Violets, and a quarter of an ounce of virgine waxe. Of all these, let the things that may be molten, be molten to∣gether: and let those things that are to be beaten into powder, be beaten to fine powder. And when yée haue streyned al your liquors into a new pot, put your powders into them, stirring them about wt a sticke till they be well incorporated together, taking good héed that ye put not too much fire vnder your pot, and so shall your vnguent be perfect. Which you may vse in handsome pleggets for your hawke, tenting her with small tents dipped in the same vnguent, after the maner mentioned in the former receit, till shée hée throughly recured.

And if your hawke bée hurt or bruised without any skinne broken, take the powder of Mummy mingled with the bloud of a wood Culuer, or of a Pullet, and conuey it into her throat so as shée may receiue it down, and two or thrée howres after giue her a reasonable gorge of good meate. If the broose bée apparant, annoynt it with good oyle of Roses, and if néede re∣quire, for the largenesse or sorenesse of her woundes, let her be mailed, as is afore said, for her more quiete, and more spee∣dy recouerie.
