Teach me, how wiuelesse batchelers and husband∣lesse maidens should driue away their vncleane dre tming of venerie, at nights?

First, they must refraine from wine, and venereous imaginations, and not vse to lye in soft downe beddes. Secondly, they must addict themselues to read the Bible and mo∣rall Philosophie. Thirdly, they must exer∣cise often their bodies. Lastly, if none of these preuayle, let them vse the seede of Agnus castus, in English Park seede, and they shall feele a straunge effect to follow.
