THe common Mange commeth of tentimes by reason that the dogs lacke fresh water to drinke, when they desire it. Or else by foule & filthy lodging & kennelling. As in swinesties, or vpon the straw wherevpon other mangic dogs haue line. And it may also come by foundring & melting of their greace. This mange may be easily healed, without the drugs and drams before re∣hearsed, but only with decoction of these herbes following.
Take two handfull of wild Cressyes, otherwise called Berne, two handfull of Enula campana, of the leaues or rootes of wylde Sorrell, and the roote of Roerb as much, and the weight of two pounds of rootes of Frodyls, make them al boyle wel in lye & vi∣neger. When they are all well boyled, you must streine the de∣coction, & take the iuice therof, mingling it wt two poūds of grey Sope, and when the Sope is well melted and mingled in it, thē rub your dogs with it foure or fiue days together, & it will heale thē. This receipt & al ye rest I haue proued & found medicinable.
